Edo Traveler

v12 Chapter 144: Sanyo opens to traffic in Osaka

The camera turns back to Japan, and Chuemon is not in Edo at this time, but is visiting Osaka Castle in person. General Tokugawa has not visited Osaka Castle for hundreds of years. The people under Osaka Castle crowded to the street to watch the ranks of Chuemon.

At this time, the advantage of having the second Osaka division is reflected. In addition to the hundreds of guards and side members who accompanied Chuemon, only some officials of the shogunate followed. When it comes to Osaka, the ranks of honor guards can all be served by the Second Osaka Division.

Egawa Eimin coordinated the local security, and was responsible for the travel safety of Chuemon with the lord Tsuchiya Torao of the Daitsuura Domain of Osaka Castle. Tsuchiya Tora Nao is a 95,000-stone castle lord, and he is also the chief official of the Tokugawa clan.

In addition, he has a backer. He is the clan of the Tsuchiya clan, and his branch is called the Jinmaru clan. The old Chinese and foreign countries are the Jinmaru clan. Thinking about it, I also know who he is relying on to sit in Osaka Joyo's seat, right?

Our good brother Zhuliu was born in the 650 stone flag book, and the family only served as an intermediate bureaucrat of the shogunate all the year round, so after he flew into the sky, there was no useful high-level flag book around him that could be cited. Coincidentally, Tsuchiya Yinzhi from the Zong family came over, so what else is there to say.

Gotta pull it off!

As for why Chuemon came to Osaka, it was mainly to attend the ceremony for the opening of the entire Sanyo Railway Line. Different from the main line of the East China Sea Railway, because the East China Sea Road is either a celestial leader or a pedigree, it does not have much political significance. However, along the main line of the Sanyo Railway, there are a large number of foreign feudal states.

The completion of the railway means that the tentacles of the shogunate have finally shifted from the remote control of Edo to the actual control of its territory. Therefore, not only Chuemon himself, but also the feudal lords and princes along the way were also present. Everyone witnessed the opening and operation of this railway, and then the samurai of the various domains began to officially serve in the shogunate.

Originally, Matsudaira Qixuan was more opposed to Chuemon attending in person. After all, he was a bit psychologically shadowed when a bomb was dropped in Kyoto. Other ministers also thought that it was enough for the shogun to sit firmly in Edo, and it was unnecessary to rush to Osaka in person.

But Chuemon doesn't think so. To be honest, Kanto is the old nest of the Tokugawa family. Even if Chuemon is not there, usually nothing will happen. But the Kansai region is different. The authority of the general reached its peak after the fall of the Osaka Castle of Toyotomi, the reform of Fukushima of Hiroshima, and the reform of Kato of Kumamoto.

Then the general's authority began to decline, and it has been down to the point where the gangsters ran rampant in the streets of Kyoto, and even dared to open riots, bombarded the ban, and attacked the shogun's old man, Matsudaira Qixuan.

Now Chuemon needs to bring the shogunate's elite and powerful new army to Osaka, the center of Kansai, and declare to the Kansai region that this Kansai is also the Kansai of the old Tokugawa family. The authority of the general is still supreme here.

All that is needed is for Chungoemon to come forward in person, and then the people everywhere see their princes respectfully serving Chunyuemon, so that they know who the king is.

In the history of Meiji, in the early days of the establishment of the new government, why the capital was moved to Edo, and why he toured the country many times, is also to declare to the whole country that he is the master of the world.

have to!

Chuemon has even said such a thing, if he does not let him go, he will not be able to tell the difference between the king and the king. So Chuemon took Tokugawa Keifuku as the post of Edo Honmaru, and Matsudaira Qixuan as the auxiliary left officer.

After a lapse of hundreds of years, Osaka Castle once again has his master.

Of course, the opening ceremony was not held in Osaka, because as in Yokohama, the starting station of the Sanyo Main Line was actually Kobe Station, which was dispatched by the French. It's just that the first and last names are Osaka and Shimonoseki. In fact, the main dispatchers, as well as a large number of agencies on this line, are all in Kobe.

Coming to Osaka simply to live in Kobe would be a shame, and it would be inconvenient for security. Living in the ready-made Osaka Castle, Yingmin Jiangchuan and Tora Tsuchiya are more convenient to arrange guards. Moreover, it is also convenient to place the hundreds of guards and attendants who came with Chuemon. It is more difficult to place the two together in other places.

After patrolling around Osaka Castle, and then accepting the hospitality of Honchi Zen, having a very sumptuous banquet at Honchiya, and watching the Noh opera performance, Chuemon returned to Osaka Castle.

The moon is dark and the wind is high...

No murder, it's just that Fang Chuemon met a person secretly. As for who is this person? Of course it was Yoshida Shoin.

It is rare for Chuemon to leave Edo Castle, which is full of eyeliners, and enter Osaka, where no generals have lived in for hundreds of years, and the eyes of the princes are all at the opening ceremony tomorrow. Yoshida Shoin took this opportunity to visit the city at night.

He has done a great job in Qiucheng, and he will definitely have to talk to Zhongyouemon about the progress. Chuemon needs to understand the situation of Qiu Domain's relocation of the domain hall, and whether it has caused any changes in the domain.

Needless to say, Yoshida Shoin came to Osaka by borrowing the identity of a samurai who worked as an errand on the railway, and his time was limited. After speaking with Chuemon tonight, he will have to go back to Kobe tomorrow to make a background board for the lord of the Autumn Domain, Kyou Mouri. The work of the hidden front is not easy to do, and I can't sleep.

The two sat down, but didn't speak immediately, just looked at each other, not knowing what they were looking at.

After looking at each other and confirming that they are not short-lived ghosts and their complexion is okay, Yoshida Shoin and Chuemon laughed, and it is considered that they have a good understanding of each other.

Then Yoshida Shoin opened the chat box and began to introduce the current situation of Matsushita Village School. He has recruited more than 300 people as disciples, and he has talked to all of them one by one, guaranteeing that they all exist with his own heart. And some people have been placed in various factories in Shimonoseki, preparing to rise up in the future.

According to this progress, in another two years, Yoshida Shoin can guarantee to pull up a backbone team of thousands of people, and then fully control the feudal government of Qiu Fan.

"By the way, there's one more thing!" When Yoshida Satsuin was sent to expand the team, he said again~lightnovelpub.net~ What's the matter? "Chuemon is close to Yoshida Shoin.

"I vaguely saw two Fukui clan soldiers sneaking under the autumn castle." Yoshida Shoin had seen those people from the Fukui clan before, and naturally would not admit their mistakes.

"You mean..." Chuemon probably knew what Yoshida Shoin was suspecting, and it was nothing more than someone from the Fukui Domain who came to collude with the respected elements of the Qiu Domain.

"Maybe, maybe..." Yoshida Shoin looked at Chuemon.

"how?"

"You might as well appoint Marquis Fukui as the guardian of Kyoto!"
