Edo Traveler - Vol 13 Chapter 30

Clay figurines also have a three-point earthiness, not to mention the emperor of filial piety.

If you say that the general can’t leave because of the wind and cold in the spring, that’s fine. At least this thing can be regarded as a good reason for each other’s face, it’s human nature to be sick.

But if you directly say that the national meeting of princes is already established by the shogunate and must be held in Edo, that is too much. Although it is not stated explicitly, but who has been performing on this stage for a long time, who does not know what you mean.

This doesn’t mean that if you want to come, you can come by yourself, and the Lord will not serve you.

Hahahahahaha!

Mijo Mijo, who is beside the Emperor Xiaoming, is overjoyed. Usually Emperor Xiaoming is indecisive and often has a hard time making decisions. But if the shogunate refused to do so directly today, even Emperor Xiaoming would be angry.

Thinking about it, the shogunate must be in a state of turmoil right now, when domestic and foreign officials force it to come over, ceding land, and lifting the ban. Not to mention besieged on all sides, at least the flames are everywhere.

Under such circumstances, how could the Shogun Tokugawa Chusaka be willing to leave the Edo Castle, where the Shogunate was deeply rooted?

Besides, Mimi Sanjo knew that there were dark tides in Kyoto now, and I don’t know how many people wanted to take advantage of the general to leave Edo and have a big fight in Kyoto. It’s just that I don’t know if this group of people can succeed. If they are suppressed like last time, it will be a pity.

Even he could see that the Tokugawa shogunate had set up hundreds of secret agents in Kyoto, could he not know about Tokugawa Chuzheng?

It’s good to know. The less you dare to come, the less you want to come, the more angry the Emperor Xiaoming here will be, and the easier it will be for his three real beauty to sow discord. Today’s imperial decree is only issued to the general alone, and in a few days, it can be issued to the princes all over the world.

As long as this limit is broken, it means that the power of the emperor will be expanded again!

Why? Because the emperor had any imperial decrees in the past, they could only be passed on to the Edo side through the Kyoto Shojidai, which was set up by the shogunate in Kyoto, and then the shogunate came forward to announce the implementation.

In theory, the emperor has only one retainer of the samurai family, that is, General Tokugawa, and the rest of the samurai family and the common people are the retainers of the general and the retainers of the retainers. The entire emperor of the world can only manage General Tokugawa alone. Whether General Tokugawa listens to you or not depends on the general’s mood.

Once the imperial decree crossed the shogunate, it was delivered directly to the princes. What does that mean? In the past, it was the imperial edict. The former Tokugawa Keito took out the imperial decree covered with the imperial treasure, and was punished by the shogunate. Because this imperial decree violated the operational framework of the entire shogunate system, and was not an existence within the system.

Now as long as the emperor issues the decree and the princes receive the decree, it means that the princes have become the emperor’s direct ministers again, and the authority of this world can be transferred to the emperor.

Fan the flames now!

When Abe, the minister who sent the letter to the shogunate, left, Emperor Xiaoming was really dissatisfied. But after all, he’s a weak man, and he’s really not ready to do anything other than sulking.

Sanjo Mimi took advantage of the brief opportunity of serving Xiaoming Emperor to return to the palace, and presented him with a direct decree, ordering the princes to come to the capital to discuss the proposal. As long as the princes are in Kyoto, he will surely come to Tokugawa Chusaka.

Otherwise, what would he do as a general?

As long as they arrive in the capital, the princes will work together to share the worries of the emperor for filial piety. Gathering an army of one million will surely be able to expel all the Yingmi ghosts and animals, and then eliminate the Chizhidan Sect.

When Emperor Xiaoming heard it, he felt that this was the truth. The princes have all come to the capital. If the general does not come again, it will not mean that he will give up his identity as the pillar of the Wu family. When the time comes, the two rulers and ministers will have a good talk and get rid of the grievances, and then they can properly discuss the major issue of the foreigners.

So under the agitation of Emperor Xiaoming, he ordered more than 80 copies of the imperial decree to be written and used on the spot, and then ordered the big and small ministers to fly out of the city and give them to the princes of various places. In addition, there were more than 100 princes, who were in Edo at this time, and they directly sent people to Edo to pass the decree and ordered them to go to Luo.

According to the regulations of Shen Qin, between April and June of each year, the princes work in shifts. The princes in the country go to the prefecture, and the princes in the prefecture go to the country and replace each other.

When the princes of the Western Kingdom and Kinki came to the house to explain, they had to pass through Kyoto. After receiving the imperial decree, some people must be hesitant, and then stay in Kyoto to watch the situation.

If someone stays, that is the victory of the court!

With the messengers dispatched from all directions, the atmosphere in the world seemed to be completely tense. On the contrary, inside the Edo Makuten, it looked very calm, without any fluctuations.

Chuemon just dealt with the large and small affairs in the Tennis as usual, and inspected the Western Palace in Edo Castle and the construction sites of various government offices. It seems that he is not worried about the change in the world at all, and it looks like the artifact is easier.

Because of the stability of the shogunate under the Edo Castle, there was no fluctuation. Originally, the lord of the Changzhou domain, Mori, respected his relatives, but also thought of ordering his loyal vassals, disguised as ronin from Kyoto, to burn, kill, and loot under the Edo Castle, angering the shogunate, and ordering the loyal guards to go up to Luo.

Looking at this look now, the shogunate just doesn’t fit in. If it is not perfect, the shogunate has 8,000 first Edo divisions in Edo, and 5,000 or 6,000 sea defense artillery units of the training team. It also has cannons and giant ships, strong cities and towns are perfect, warehouses are enriched, and the people are attached.

If you want to directly attack Kanto and Edo, it is too difficult, and it is impossible to fight quickly!

If the battle cannot be resolved quickly, then the princes of the world will sway and wait and see. And most of the princes will eventually fall to the shogunate because of the righteousness of the monarchs and ministers for more than two hundred years. The fallen army, facing the world with a corner, obviously will not have much chance of winning.

It is a pity that there is no good counselor around Maori Jingqin who can come up with ideas. His key retainers are all left in the Yamaguchikan to build a new feudal hall. There is no one to discuss, and he is not a wise and wise person, Maori can only choose to wait and watch the development of the situation.

Shimadzu, who was a hostage in Edo, became active. Of course, he was in the shogunate. After all, his son Shimadzu defined that as the old school and the shogunate. He was in charge of the annual financial revenue of millions and had power in the shogunate. .

But this old man definitely hopes that the power of his family can rise to a higher level. In the future, my younger brother, Tokugawa Chusaka, will be the king, and my son Shimadzu will be defined as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

Furthermore, he also knew the secret of Chuemon’s plans to abolish the lineage of the emperor, and felt that a civil war was inevitable. In this case, it is best to intensify this civil war as soon as possible, let the Shimadzu family gain the first merit, and then sit on the top spot of the shogunate, that is the right way.
