Chapter 206 33. It's better to Mizuno Tadakuni

   (It is said that at the beginning, France invaded Ryukyu and Sesile bombarded Naha. And the Edo Castle Honmaru fire in May 1844 are historical events, not design plots.)

  Hearing that the fire broke out, the old man was relieved, and his eyes suddenly shifted because of such a big event in Edo. It's good, one day is one day, anyway, it's a big deal, and the team will be separated in the end.

  Tokugawa Ieki ran, while instructing the follower to bring the Tokugawa Ieki, the only remaining heir to the Shogunate, so as not to make any difference. After all, the Tokugawa family had brain damage. If he saw the fire, he would just leave it there to watch the excitement, not knowing how to run.

  As soon as Masahiro Abe listened to his instructions, he turned his head and ran to Nishimaru to save the prince. Someone was willing to do it. Although the inheritance of the Tokugawa shogunate has been a lot of blood and blood, but the son of Tokugawa Ieki has grown up and there is no replacement at all. It is a business that will not lose money to sell it now.

   Seeing that Masahiro Abe’s young legs and feet are fast, the other old middle-aged people scolded this kid to bet on both ends, while praising Tokugawa Ieki, while protecting Tokugawa Ieki, they were aiming for the next 20 years.

  嗐, it’s important to run away first.

  The men and women in Edo Main Castle also moved out in an orderly manner. Isn't it the fire? It's not the first time I met. The castle tower in Edo Castle burned several times. There is even a gossip that some, several times, were burned by the general deliberately.

  Because of the great names in the world, all the princes have the duty to invite the generals. Building a home for the generals is one of their duties as the generals' retainers. An Edo castle will cost hundreds of thousands taels of gold, and it may cost millions of dollars.

   Counting down, each foreign sample bears two to thirty thousand taels of gold. For thorns such as Shimadzu and Maori, they will be allowed to bear a share of fifty to six thousand taels. Basically, they can use up the money and food that these big names may save, and make them owe a debt, perfect!

   By the way, this wave may have to mobilize the Uesugi family, because after the Uesugi Yingshan Gong reform, the Uesugi family not only owed hundreds of thousands of taels in debt, but also reportedly saved 50,000 taels of gold. The shogunate is very rich, you guys have fifty thousand, so be prepared to take them out.

  Who knows if this fire is a conspiracy by the shogunate?

  No matter what you say, Tokugawa Ieki, who retreated to Kaneiji Temple in Higashieizan, watched the seven-story castle tower of Edo Castle collapse in the fire. The fire burned all day and night, and there was no way to extinguish it. There was no possibility of fire fighting for such a tall building in this era.

  The castle tower, which cost a lot of money, was also burnt, and the Edo Castle was lit up all night, and it was clear from everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of taels of gold just look at such a big firework, it is not worth it.

  The people of Edo just want to watch the excitement, and the foreign daimyos who live under the Edo castle will take the cold from the cold. Good guy, the shogunate is about to start building the Edo Castle castle tower again, and the money in his pocket is not hot yet, and he has to spend it again.

  All the daimyos coincided with each other. The first idea was to move up and down to exclude yourself from the list of Edo Castle castle towers.

  As long as it can be excluded from the list, it is equivalent to saving tens of thousands of taels of gold. For this reason, even using tens of thousands of taels of activity funds is acceptable.

  In the afternoon of the second day, the Maeda family, the leader of the foreign dynasty, sent people to the first Doi position in Laozhong to inquire about the shogunate's regulations on the restoration of the Edo Tenshu. When Maeda’s elder Chokuro (Naga’s, one of the eight Kaga houses) had his **** firmly seated, someone outside came to inform that Hiroshima’s Asano’s also sent someone to ask.

  The first family member's voice did not fall, and the Ikeda clan of Okayama Bizen also sent someone to ask. Good fellow, everyone was afraid that the shogunate would rely on his own home, and couldn't sit still in a hurry.

  Don’t you understand the purpose of everyone? I just hope that Toi Toi will be on the list of Tokugawa Ikei's initiating the princes' general invitation, and erase his own name and replace it with another one.

  Dead fellow Daoist will not die poor Dao, nothing more!

  Of course, I want Doi Toi to do things with a touch. It must be impossible. You and Doi Toi are not relatives, and Doi Toi doesn’t love you, so why should you take the initiative to help you.

  Seeing Toi Toi with a smile and not letting go, the elders of the feudal clan in this room still don't understand the meaning of Toi Toi. Isn't it just asking for bribes? Compared to the huge expenses of participating in the general invitation of the princes, bribing Doi's profit of 810,000 gold is really very small.

  The money will not be filled up with boxes and sent to Doi’s house. It is not waiting until the night to quietly use the Yuza issued by the wealthy merchant or two for the house to bribe.

  Basically, even if things were public, it was commonplace for the top officials who held power during the Edo period to accept bribes. Because lower-level officials are only capable of handling affairs, most of them are incorruptible.

At first, Tokugawa Kaki also heard that Toi Toiwei had collected money, but he didn’t take it seriously, because as long as the last dozen or twenty unlucky names came out to spend the money, the castle tower would have to be repaired anyway. , The outside name is also weakened, and things will be done as soon as they are done.

But in just a few days, in order to avoid the general request of the princes, Toi Riwei actually collected a huge amount of bribes of more than three hundred thousand taels of gold before and after. Even the Shimadzu family and the Maori family could not avoid the vulgarity~lightnovelpub.net~ Go to Toi Toiwei to pay bribes.

  Doi's position does not know how to converge, how can the money of the princes who must be weakened like the Shimadzu family be collected? The shogunate must force the Shimadzu family out of general service. Now that I have received his money, how to arrange for him to come to work afterwards.

  For more important things, it’s not bad for you to collect one hundred and eighty thousand, but my mother actually collected three to four hundred thousand!

  My Tokugawa Jiaqing’s Nekuri did not have three or four hundred thousand yuan, but your little Furukawa Hou got such a huge bribe all at once. Not to mention that most people are jealous, Tokugawa Kayuki is also jealous.

  In my heart, I am not very satisfied with Doi's position. Now I am richer than me, and France has no countermeasures when I call. I know all day to mess with things. What do I leave you for?

  At night, Tokugawa Jiaqing lay on the couch, thinking about it in his heart, trying to find a prime minister who can help him and handle the errands well. Masahiro Abe is too young to convince the public. Toda Tadao's ability to do things is not strong enough, and Matsuhira Yoshiki of Aizu is born in Owari, and Tokugawa Ieki is not happy.

  His little brother, Songping Qixuan, is a bully, and he is only nineteen years old, which is even more impossible. Finally, after thinking about it, Tokugawa Jiaqing still thought of his teacher Mizuno Tadakuni.

  It’s better for him!
