Edo Traveler

v2 Chapter 45: Adopted son-in-law has an intermediary

   After announcing the decision to punish the fornicating female officials and monks, Tokugawa Ieki rewarded Tadaoemon and Heizo for "presiding" the investigation of the Enmeiyuan case.

  In terms of reason, this kind of scandal should not be rewarded. But it is probably because the culprit that Chuemon found was the female officer of the Owari clan. This made Tokugawa Ikeki very cool, so he should give him a reward for whatever reason.

   First of all, it is something that everyone can think of, feelings, commonly known as thank-you letters and praise letters. Anyway, it's just a piece of paper and some pen and ink. Whether it's the daimyo of the Warring States period or the general of Edo, they all like to make people feel foolish.

   The most powerful thing is the famous Uesugi Kenshin in history. He also made some blood-stained feelings. He opened his fingers and squeezed the blood to take it into a shack. To say that it didn't work, when everyone went out to brag, one had ten feelings and one had twenty, and they would indeed be compared.

   But if you want to say what is really good about this stuff, you really can’t tell. After all, it's just a light piece of paper, which can neither be eaten nor used, and even wiped the buttocks is too panic. In the end, it was only a false name. Now it is not the Warring States period. The era of warriors competing for posts has passed. Most of the samurai are hereditary, and you can't compare with the father of eight thousand stones if you take eight hundred feelings.

   However, it is also a relatively affordable thing that is sent along with the feelings. Many people like gold. For example, Shingen Takeda, the great name of the Warring States Period, for a meritorious minister, it is often just a handful of gold and a feeling. At that time, Jiafei was one of the main producing areas of gold mines. Jiazhou cents of gold was the hard currency at that time.

   Tokugawa Jiaqing probably felt that giving gold was too vulgar, and now it is the time of peace. Although the gift of gold is more useful, it does not show the rank of the general.

   Therefore, the reward given to Heizo is a precious saddle decorated with a pattern of flying horse riding on the cloud. Anyway, Pingsan rode off work every day. This saddle is a practical and generous treasure that reflects Tokugawa's family celebration.

   Our Chuemon is a little second, but it is a pair of Taito swords. It is said that from a famous artist in Minoden, the scabbards are all silver, and it seems to be worth a few dollars. However, this kind of silver sword is not for daily use at all, it is usually used on the knife holder at home to watch it.

   Of course, it is not ruled out that one day Tadaoemon fell down. It is also possible to take this pair of swords to the pawnshop to exchange some rice and return to cooking. Anyway, there is no harm in keeping it, the general's kindness.

   In short, this is both a watch and a lining, and it's pretty solid. Heizo's Chiyuki and Chuemon's salary have also undergone certain adjustments because of the cracking of such an important case.

   Pingsan’s knowledge of the three hundred and fifty stone remains unchanged, but in addition to this, one hundred support meters will be added. In the future, as long as you work for the shogunate, you can receive this subsidy.

   And Chuemon was originally a contract worker with a salary of eight taels and two people supporting rice. Basically, as long as you don't make a mistake, it is generally impossible to be fired by the shogunate. The iron rice bowl with the samurai is actually not much different, just the last step.

   Now that the last step is finally taken, Chuemon, as the royal family (attorney) with an annual salary of 60, became a samurai of the shogunate.

   But the identity of this samurai is limited to the generation of Chuemon. If the descendants of Chuemon are not up to date, they may be taken back by the shogunate and become ordinary town people again.

   Like the Inoyama family in "The Family Accounts of the Samurai", people like Chuemon who receive Lumi directly from the shogunate are not appreciated by those with hereditary knowledge and behavior. This is the main reason why Zhushan's family would rather reduce their income and replace them with seventy stone Zhixing.

  Samurai Fenggong, don’t you work hard for a piece of knowledge!

   Wakanyo, who came to announce the news, smiled, and after reading the imperial order, he stepped forward to congratulate Chuemon Heida on his promising future. It stands to reason that such a big man generally does not use color, but now he praises the young talents again and again, I am afraid that it is not what I heard or knew something by Tokugawa Jiaqing's side.

   accepted the imperial order calmly, and the two looked at each other, feeling something unreal today. The salary increase is too great. It is important to know that the former Edo-cho obeyed Ooka Echizen Mori Tadashi, but after 19 years in Edo-cho, he went from one thousand eight hundred shi to ten thousand shi.

   is equivalent to working for the general's family for almost twenty years before moving to that position one step at a time. But how long did Chuemon have been talented? It's been more than half a year to pinch the head to the tail and top the sky, from zero to sixty, which is the result of almost everyone else's struggle for a lifetime.

   Really unreality!

   If this is a novel writer, and you won’t be sprayed out, Chuemon’s name should be written upside down!

   didn't know how to get back home~lightnovelpub.net~ Apparently they had received news at home a long time ago, and they all looked very happy. Seeing the two "great heroes" go home, they danced happily. He even said that I bought a sea bream specially today, the boss.

  Waiting to leave the mother-in-law away, Chungemon and Heizo sat in front of Kinmaru Yoshin, there seemed to be a meat show.

   One is that Masahiro Abe intends to help Ping San, the elder of the Fukuyama clan, Matsushita 58ro, has a daughter who is 11 years old this year, and Ping San is a match made in heaven. It is perfectly possible to make a marriage appointment now, and then take the little girl to Edo to raise her for two or three years, and then marry Heizo as the adopted daughter of Masahiro Abe.

   If it weren't for Yoshikin Jinmaru, he would be sensible, he might have jumped up on the spot. As a reformist, and also a courtier appreciated by Tokugawa Ieki, Mizuno Tadakuni is 47 years old this year, while Masahiro Abe is only 21 years old.

   One represents the present, and one represents the future!

   Moreover, the two are relatively friendly, agreeing with each other on the issue of reform and reform. Even if the Kinmaru family married the daughter of the Fukuyama clan's retainer, it wouldn't be a big deal.

   As long as the marriage can be done in the end, it means that Ping San's future achievements are by no means limited to a small amount of effort. On a larger scale, Edo Town's practice is not impossible to fight. Once practiced, the force of the whole family can be raised a lot, which is much better than the Jinwan family.

  Second, it is naturally related to Chuemon. Jin Maru Yoshihide pondered for a while, probably the language of organization.

   "You two went to the Shimadzu mansion to investigate the life of the loving monk, did you have any results?"

   "There is no news yet." It would take two months to go from Edo to Satsuma, and Shigetomi Tadashi naturally had no news.

   "Then are you willing to be another son-in-law? Just make sure that you won't suffer a loss!"
