Edo Traveler

v8 Chapter 40: Neither one nor the other

The two political qualifications have been more than ten years, but the young man who was actually only 29 years old, who was quite conspiring, sat in the secret room of Yisheng'an.

"What are your servants up to lately?" Zhuliu married his wife in the new year, and began to grow his beard, with a somewhat dignified manner.

It's a pity that you know how deep he is with Chuemon, and I know how long you are, so you can't pretend to be anything. Majesty is not seen at all, it is all teasing and narrowing.

"How come you are getting older and less serious." Tadaoemon gave him a blank look, and now he's talking about business.

"Why? Something big?" When Zhu Liu was serious, he could still be serious quickly.

"You have been in Edo for a long time, is there any wind up and down?"

Chuemon leaned over, and Sukeruk immediately listened carefully. Although the words did not directly clarify, but at the moment the Edo superstructure is most concerned about the old middle.

"There is one!"

"Say!"

Long story short, long story short, many years ago because of the US Navy James shelling Edo case, Tokugawa Masaaki and Abe Masahiro were sentenced to be cautious. The old middleman who was in office at that time, the lord of Echigo Nagaoka, Makino Tadao was ordered to resign and live in seclusion. At the same time, the three males of the lord of the Mikawa Nishio feudal clan Matsudaira were adopted as heirs, and they were named Makino Tadagyou.

Many years have passed since this incident. If you don't say it, Chuemon may not be able to remember it. At that time, Tadiya Makino, Tademon Tademon and Sukeruchi, who adopted as lord of the Nagaoka domain, are both 29 years old and can now serve as officials.

Therefore, with the support of Matsudaira, who expected that he might not be able to compete for the first place in the old middle school, Makino has generally been recognized by others and will soon be the player.

That's right, Matsudaira Chengquan is actually Makino's loyal eldest brother. He first introduced his own brother into the political arena and cultivated a strong arm.

In exchange for the veteran qualification, Matsudaira did not participate in the competition to enter the first seat of Laozhong. In fact, other candidates had completely acquiesced in this appointment, and it was just a matter of publicity.

Now Feng Suga Qiyu and Matsudaira have withdrawn from the competition for the first seat in the old middle, and the rest are Matsudaira Keihiro and Kuse Hiroshi. The advantages and disadvantages of the two are very prominent.

"Tell me carefully!" Zhu Liu finished the news of Matsudaira Chengquan, and wanted to hear other people's news.

Matsudaira Keunaga was born in the Echizen Fukui clan and was the head of the pro-feudal vassal Matsudaira. In the past few years, he will toss again and actively represent the pro-fantasies and generations to fight for power. It enjoys high prestige in the pro-fan, and has received the support of the pro-fan. The basic disk is very strong and quite powerful.

But the defeat is also because he is the head of the pro-fellow Zhu Songheira. As we said before, if Zhutokugawa is dead, then it will be the Echizen Matsuhei clan represented by Matsuhei Keunaga. Therefore, unless necessary, the generals will never appoint a person from the Echizen Matsudaira clan as the first veteran.

And Kuse Hiroshu partially inherited the reputation of the famous shogunate Prime Minister Mizuno Tadakuni, and he was also the only surviving vassal vassal in the shogunate. In the absence of alternatives, the genealogical vassals would try to support Kuse Hiroshi's superiority in order to counter the Matsudaira clan and ensure the genealogical authority in the shogunate.

The bad thing is that the seniority of this old man is really unconvincing, and the last time that the Jiushi family took office as the old middle school was already more than half a century ago.

More importantly, he originally inherited some of Mizuno's popularity, but now Mizuno also wants to enter the shogunate pavilion, which greatly diminishes the momentum of Kuse Hiroshu, making him unable to suppress Matsudaira Keunaga.

Therefore, in addition to the current candidates in these two Mu Ge, the candidates who may directly fill the Mu Ge actually have the possibility of serving as the Laozhong, or even the first one in the Laozhong.

First of all, the most likely senior middle school is the three Nishimaru senior middle schools, Masahiro Matsudaira, Tadase Mizuno, and Naobei Ii, all ranked in no particular order. They were all ministers left by Tokugawa Kashin to Tokugawa Kashin. They were all in their thirties, and they were convenient to use in the same year.

These three...

It's all possible, maybe even very big, after all, this has been said long ago. Even many people think that all three of them may join the pavilion at once, expanding the number of people in the Mu pavilion to seven.

Anyway, the number of Laozhong is not fixed, but after all, it is Minister Zaifu, not radish and Chinese cabbage. It is impossible for more than a dozen people to do it together. So often the number of people will fluctuate between five or six, and sometimes there will only be three or four people.

Seven people are not too few, but they are definitely not too many. The first seat of an old middle school, plus six auxiliary old middle school, this configuration is actually very good, no problem.

But, let’s do it. Which of the above-mentioned people has become prime minister and minister of cabinet, will he unconditionally fully support Chungemon to prepare for the war?

Thinking about it this way, Ii Naobi compromised temporarily, leaving time to consolidate the military. Kuse Hiroshu generally held this opinion, and Mizuno Tadase was not too far behind, and he was far inferior to his father, without Mizuno’s flexible moral bottom line and behavioral standards.

Maybe the ones who will be actively preparing for the war, then only Songping Qixuan and Songping Keiyong are left. It's really ironic that Keunaga Matsudaira, who always works against the shogunate, may be the most determined barbarian sect!

How to do? Chungemon and Matsudaira Keunaga really couldn't talk about a good relationship, and even the two of them were hostile to some extent.

Because Shimaru, the son of Chuemon, may enter the family of the successor, Keunaga Matsudaira's younger brother, Keizang Tian's inheritance, has stepped back.

"In that case, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is also Akashi Hou alone?" Zhuroku said thoughtfully, following his beard.

"Hou Akashi is impatient, and I sometimes can't persuade him. If the war is going to be successful, it may not be a good thing." Chuemon felt that Matsudaira was not as flexible as Mizuno Chukuni, and he might not be able to handle diplomatic matters well in such a situation.

"This is not possible, neither is it, why?"

"Can there be other candidates?" Chuemon was also troubled. The huge shogunate couldn't pick a relatively flexible and witty backbone.

It's the Yingmi ghost animal that hasn't rode up to the top yet, so these people don't have any real sense of urgency. It's not that we don't develop armaments, or we don't prepare for war in such a hurry. It's still working step by step, pushing it bit by bit. And the energy to promote preparations is far less than the energy to seize power in the shogunate.

There is a saying that the shogunate's defeat in history is really not wronged, the fire will burn to the bottom, and the result is that this group of people are still fighting for power. I don't want to think that if the shogunate is over, they will fight for a fart.

"Actually speaking, Hou Longye came to visit his father."
