At present, the genealogies must not dare to scold the Tokugawa family in person, so the responsibility of letting Shimadzu define the role of senior middle school can only be carried by the elder Ii Naobi.

Perhaps it was indeed because the princes of Pudai were scolding them too fiercely, and Jingyi Naobi went out of the city yesterday to inspect. What are you patrolling? Of course it's the Tokaido Railway.

Before the big change in Kyoto, it took two days for the news to reach Edo. This time, the people who created the chaos were Zunwang and the barbarians. The forces were not that big, and they didn't cause any big storms. But what about next time? Next time, what if Hagi Fan leads an army of 5,000 or 6,000 to attack Nijo Imperial Palace and Jinzhong directly?

Or should the news be sent to Edo two days later, and the first reinforcements arrive in Kyoto four days later? I'm afraid the day lily will be cool by then.

Therefore, the main line of the Tokai Railway must be prepared immediately, and the telegraph line laid along the railway must also be constructed immediately. Ii Naobi is also used to using telegrams now. Telegrams from Yokohama to Edo are very convenient, at least more convenient than people running back and forth on two legs, or running back and forth by train.

Now Odawara Castle, Junfu Castle, Hamamatsu Castle and other large cities along the way have already received telegrams, and the major events and small affairs in the local areas can be reported to the shogunate in an instant.

At that time, if there was a telegram in Kyoto, it would take less than an hour to know that there was a change in Edo. The railway can reach Kyoto in ten hours at most, and as soon as the soldiers arrive, the so-called rebel army will disintegrate in an instant.

This is also the main reason why Naobi Ii finally agreed to build railways and telegraph lines. As long as it can help the shogunate suppress the princes and maintain the rule, Naobi Ii can accept it. But the idea of ​​constitutional monarchy or something, Naobi Ii rejects abnormality. As the ghostwriter of Tokugawa's genealogy, he naturally rejects any **** election prime minister.

Our family has been able to be the old man from generation to generation, why should we have constitutional government!

For his request to go out of Edo to hide, the Tokugawa family certainly agreed. Hengshujing Yi Zhibi is helping him carry the blame. If he doesn't agree, how can the ruler and the minister get along with each other.

I heard that Naobi Ii was sprayed out of Edo, and Shimadzu Chugyo, who had a relationship with him and was ordinary in face, actually came forward to send it away. Now Shimadzu is very happy, because of the structure of the shogunate system, all the lords are in the country one year, and one year in the prefecture.

Within a year of the government's account, he was imprisoned in Edo, and at the same time, he was under the surveillance of the shogunate. If you hold a position in the shogunate, you can still have something to do. If you are a foreign prince, you can only stay in the mansion every day and be a rice bug.

Therefore, many princes will give up the position of family governor to their sons or grandsons in their prime years. One is to ensure the succession without fear, establish prestige for the young master in advance, and cultivate the team.

In the history of the Tokugawa shogunate, there have been too many cases of cutting down the vassal because of the suspicion of the master and the country. When Kato Kiyomasa died, the shogunate raided his house. Yoshimitsu Mogami died. He worked so hard for Tokugawa Ieyasu and Tokugawa Hidetada back then, but in the end, he cut the clan and changed his way, and he couldn't leave his farts behind.

The princes really tried their best to solve the problem of succession, and they were afraid that they would die, and the shogunate came to take advantage of it.

And it wasn't just princes who did this, many samurai did too. In the Kishu domain, there was a samurai named Yinshan and Uemon Shigeken, who was the chief of the Kishu domain, with high rank and high salaries. As a result, he died at the age of 40, and he had no children to break the door, so he had to welcome his family's children into succession, and immediately reduced it to 1,500 stone.

Because this kind of thing happened many times in the history of their family, by the end of the Edo period, the Yinshan family had been destroyed into a middle and lower level samurai of 150 stone, and even the house was confiscated.

Alan's father in the royal curtain of the main room of Chunemon's house, because he had no children, he could only recruit a son-in-law, and the family wealth was reduced to one hundred and forty tao. There is nothing you can do, who told you to have no son. At this time, the family really has a family business to inherit, and there must be a son, and there is no way.

In addition to this reason, the samurai gave way early, and another reason is that once they are not the head of the family, the whole person will be free. Of course it's only limited freedom, but limited freedom is better than jail time.

Also taking the Shimadzu family as an example, Shigehao Shimadzu announced in his early years that he would live in seclusion and cede the family business to his eldest son, Shimadzu Qixuan. Then he let Shimadzu live in the upper house under the Edo castle, and he was put in prison and monitored in his place.

The feudal government of Satsuma Domain was always under the control of Shigehao Shimazu, and he basically did not relax until his death. Tiaosuo Guangxiang was promoted and appointed in his later years, which shows the depth of his control over the feudal government.

Gossip aside, Ii Naobi has not left Edo for many years. This time is not only to inspect the construction of the entire Tokaido main line, but also to go back to the hometown of Hikone to see.

Getting on the train at Nihonbashi Railway Station, Ii Naobi temporarily handed over the finances to Matsudaira Qimin, and the personnel to Chuemon. When he was the eldest elder, he only caught these two pieces, and he let the elders do the rest. Now that he has left Beijing, he has to be careful.

Matsudaira Qimin also temporarily served as the senior senior middle school, because he is the son of the Tokugawa family Qi, the uncle of the Tokugawa family Ding and Zhongemon, and he is very senior in the shogunate's vassal, enough to sit in the Fuchu.

Going all the way to Hamamatsu Castle, the railway in front has not yet been laid, so Ii Naobi could only abandon the train and tour the entire construction site on horseback. Not to mention, in the past few days, Naobi Ii only felt that his spirit was better, and even after seeing Mount Fuji, he wanted to write some poems or something to express his feelings.

The construction of the railway was naturally the responsibility of the British. Knowing that the prime minister of the shogunate was at the construction site, the British respectfully waited on the side of the road. Naobi Jingyi saw that the British were bowing to him on the side of the road, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com scolded Tadahiko Iida again in his heart. Disputes abroad, beheaded

Dear, this chapter is not over, there is another page ^0^ it deserves it.

As for the British, in terms of class, Naobi Ii is the "Grand Duke" and the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Japan. Even if it is a noble in a semi-colonial and semi-feudal country, it is also a noble, and the British eat this.

The British Consul General in Yokohama, MacDonald, followed Ii Naobi to personally inspect. After all, MacDonald's Japanese was excellent and he was trusted by the shogunate. Even Naobi Ii, who was not very happy to deal with foreigners, already felt that MacDonald was half Japanese.

It was before that MacDonald arranged a blind date with the Qiben family's daughter, but MacDonald did not agree. It's not that he didn't like others, the main reason is that MacDonald also has his own Xiao Jiujiu, and he can't inherit his father's title. And with his work in Japan and the value he created for Dae Ying, he was able to make him a baron after returning to China.

In order to inherit the title for future generations, it is best to find a British noblewoman.
