In the summer of Eight Years Old, Hojo Tsuyasu replied in writing.

Matsudaira-san delivered it directly to me, who was teaching at Inariyama's school.

He already knows the contents, but he's not there yet, so he interrupts the lecture, rents out the empty classroom, and opens it again there and looks through it.

Looks like you avoided the fight.

"Inari-sama wanted lands that were just swamps, wetlands, and shallows, and were of little strategic value.

So you decided that it would not be a waste if you cut it off. "

Still, I demanded a fairly large territory outside the Gulf to be foiled as General Kaiji, but Hojo Naokasu offered it to me quite generously without worrying about it.

Looking at Mr. Matsudaira permanently while I was sitting in the cushion, it seemed that there were other reasons, and he continued to explain.

"Inari-sama decided that it would be more profitable for the people to rule directly than to defend the territory and fight, and that was what Hojo Kaiseki said."

I certainly do not intend to destroy the Hojo family.He took part or nearly half of his territory and eventually swallowed it all, but he still wants to coexist and prosper.

However, for the time being, it is inevitable that Hojo Tsuyasu's forces will be greatly reduced.

However, there is a foil that gives the Inari Daimyojin land, and as a person who knows the future of Tokyo, it will develop at a truly horrible rate from now on.

Whatever it is, satisfied with the sincerity shown by the Hojo family, I put my hand on the little mouth and thought for a while.

"Hmm... people say it's the first time they know etiquette when food, clothing, and shelter are filled.

The cooperation of the Hojo family was also obtained, so let's start by bringing richness to all of Japan so that it becomes ridiculous to start a war and plunder from other countries. "

In response to this remark, not only Matsudaira-san, but also Honda, the guards, are suddenly motivated.

If you enrich Japan so much that you don't have to take it from other countries, and you don't feel anxious about tomorrow, there won't be a big war so easily.

Of course, it's not limited to human desire, but even if there is a conflict, it will fall on a very small scale in the future.

"Then we have to build a new Inari Taisha Shrine where Inari-sama lives!"

The office now only has a kitchen and a warehouse with a hall in front of it as soon as it opens the sliding door to the front door.I prefer smaller houses because I am basically restless in large houses.

However, Matsudaira-san's remarks suggest that an incredible building is likely to be built, so I hurried to wait there.

"I don't mind if there's something else..."

"No! It is the Japanese general Kaisei who is going to tell us about a new era!

It is a merciful Inari Omiya god that has appeared in the world of confused people!

If it's a shameful place to live, it involves selling tickets to the country! "

I was convinced that there was a reason for this, and I had no choice but to remain silent.

Certainly political performance to show to the powerful is important.But anyway, I decided to definitely have my house built small.

Summer of Yongroku Nine Years with Time Flowing.

The center of Edo where I will rule.In the vast forest, a luxurious Inari Shrine with a harsh atmosphere was finally completed.

I was surprised to learn that most of the supplies needed for the construction of timber, soil, rocks, etc. were brought aboard from the mountains north of Hojo territory.

It is also the manifestation of what the people of Japan expect in the Edo Shogunate, which will be held from now on.

And by calling on the nation to donate to the architecture of the residence of the Inari Daimyojin, who became the Great General of Kanagi, the burden on the Hojo family was practically no.

There was nothing to be ashamed of, because it was good for religion to solicit donations.By the way, it goes without saying that the forces that won't give me a single quote are going to the list of enemies or cautionary people.

In addition, I mistook Kyoto for the Inari Daimyojin, but I clearly admitted it, so donations and people gathered too much to keep up.

Either way, the Ninth Year of Yongroku was attacked nationwide by long rains and cold summers, and people suffering from hunger everywhere turned into refugees, resulting in a massive movement of people towards Edo.

Incidentally, there were refugees in Eight Years of Yongroku, and they came to Kanto to open a new shogunate, but the number of people themselves was modest.

However, this is something I deserve. In an era when there was no fixed standard law, the rumor that workers were always paid daily wages, worked eight hours a day, took breaks and holidays, and even simpler large rooms were fine, so the provision of accommodation and cooking three times a day were spread all over the country in an instant.

Because of this, the field officials entered the Death March, and the management of the territory of Mikawa and Onari became a fire train again, but instead led to an accelerating increase in Inari faith.

It is good that it was completed in a short period of one year and a little after the Inari Taisha Shrine was started, but the large number of refugees who abandoned their villages and homes due to famine could not return to the region now.

So I decided to accept it as a newly built city, a resident of Edo, and continue to engage in public projects such as marshes, wetlands, and shallow water landfills around it.

Regardless, with the successful completion of the splendid residence, Inariyama in the Toyokawa River withdrew his family's clothes and daily necessities, and entrusted the subsequent management to the priest of Nagayama Village.

The departure was in the autumn of Yongroku IX.

Incidentally, it took me a long time to cross the Hakone mountain because I was swayed and moved along with a long queue.

Still, the scheduled arrival date was already known to famous people from all over Japan, and everyone was gathered in the marina that was specially made in the back of the main shrine a step earlier.

Rumors alone may seem half-baked, but I'm sure the nosy one admitted to being the Inari Omiya God and lowered his head.In other words, this was better news than General Kaiyi.

Then, in the age of war, when faith flourished, there was no choice but to turn down God's demands from the beginning.

General Kanagi! Inari Daimyo no Nairi!

I was considerably behind everyone, like a director. At the end, I entered the main shrine and appeared majestically from the back seating area at the same time as Mr. Matsudaira, who renamed Tokugawa.

Walk slowly as you lower your hips to a thick, flashy patterned cushion placed on a higher tatami mat than everyone else.

"Raise your face."

Tokugawa-san told me not to script, but to speak freely.

Anything, rather than confusing the big names in real life and in front of the building, it seems that everything would be better if Inari-sama was honest about everything.

I was half-crustrated, but I was convinced that if the pro on the road said so.

"As we all already know, I am the Inari Daimyojin, who has become the Great General of Koichi this time."

Even if the tatami mat was in a higher position, I was a little short of looking up because I was a little girl.Nevertheless, it is not really great, so it would be easier to have about the same level of vision.

"But the title of General Kaisei doesn't make much sense.

I was just entrusted by the Imperial Court because I needed it to survive the war. "

My words nowadays groan slightly at the celebrities gathered here.

I was entrusted with the future of Japan by a quiet person, but I am not going to be the ruler forever.When it is peaceful, I will leave quickly and give up my seat to Tokugawa-san.

"Once there is no more war from the land of Japan and the world of Taipei under heaven is built, I will leave General Kaiyi."

Everyone stares at me and listens to me.Soon the grunt lurked, and everyone had a serious look on their face and listened to their story.

"Until then, let us stand on top of the people of Japan as rulers and bring richness to the five grains.

So please listen to my teachings and enrich this country, not take it away from others. "

I breathed out loudly and stood up from the cushion because I said what I wanted to say.Walk quietly toward the back seat again.

As Tokugawa-san said, I really liked talking to myself, so I am afraid to see the reaction of the big names gathered here.Leave the room without looking straight at it.

I became the Great General of Conqueror and confessed to myself the foolishly and honestly purpose of governing Japan.However, I have serious doubts about whether it will really work like this.

But anyway, there's only one thing we need to do now to make the future easier to hide.I was going to work hard in my heart...

Later on, the Inari Festival was largely held to spread throughout Japan as a year-round event.

Needless to say, the eyes of Shogun officials and Inari Taisha priests became like dead fish, but I decided to convince them that it was evidence that the world had become peaceful after the end of the Sengoku era.

As usual, I waved a small hand towards the people of Edo with a sticky smile as I was swayed by the washoi washoi and the gods.
