Celebration 11 (1606) September 16th -
Finally, I had a very important day for Hideyoshi Toyotomi.
That said, of course, there are times to deepen the interaction with Zhonghui about the purpose of this response of Zhonghui Matsuhei, and keep the wedge within the Tokugawa family, but the other purpose actually means more.
It is this day that it executes it, and its stage is the school of Kyo.
There was another major reason why it wasn't within Osaka Castle, besides the fact that Tokugawa's eyes were stretched out.
That's because I wanted to leave the job to someone.
No, the right man for the job trusted his arm to the point that he was rather the only one I knew.
Who is that person...
Soyo Ishida.
And what is the job I want to entrust...
It was a negotiation with Chief Okubo An.
………
……
"Oh! Is this the Heavenly School, the Toyoku School!
Zhonghui Matsuhei raised his voice so astonished as he sparkled his eyes.
That would be it, too.
If you don't know about the school, you'll be attacked by the feeling that you stepped foot in the exotic country from the time you crawled through the gate.
Around this time, the school grounds were even more vast than they were at the beginning of development, and it formed a single city, just like a school city.
It was there that people of all races were learning and studying freely and indefinitely.
For each field of research, there is a large research building where people come and go freely.
Because this college allows those who want to learn regardless of their status to learn freely, especially popular research buildings were always overflowing with people.
Incidentally, the things that are gaining popularity these days are arithmetic for the townspeople, swordsmanship for the martial family, and basic reading and writing for the kids.
In the meantime, I placed three small surnames beside me: Reisei Kimura, Gideo Ono, and Naku Horiuchi, and walked inside the school, along with Chung-hye Matsuhei and several of his offerings.
The roads connecting the research buildings to each other are cleaned up beautifully by the learners and clean themselves. And on both sides of it, shops for people attending school are sloppy.
There are many shops that deal mainly with stationery such as paper and brushes, but there are also other lines of tea houses, small restaurants, and pharmacies.
However, dealing with alcohol within the university is strictly forbidden by the dean, Zongyu Ishida, so there was no liquor store or liquor brewery.
The people who come to learn are filled with hope for their own future, and the people who set up shops to support them are also smiling.
It may be very natural to just walk in it and dance this breast somewhere too.
We slowly proceeded to enjoy the atmosphere of this college.
And after a while, the time has finally come to move on to action geared towards the purpose. With a natural smile on my face, I speak to all Akashi who had refrained behind me.
"All aboard. Please guide Chang 'an Okubo, the accompanying elder of Lord Zhonghui, to the school director's mansion.
We will continue our school tour. After that, we'll head to the mansion we offered earlier, so we'll meet there. "
"Yes, sir."
All Deng lowered his head slightly and moved forward in front of Chief Okubo.
"Well... if you skip Zhonghui, is that the only reason you want to see the dean..."
The aversive tone of Chang 'an is as hostile as ever.
Still, I laughed so hard with Kerakera that I flushed such a long cold gaze.
"Ha! You don't have to be so alert! If anything happens to Lord Chang 'an, who now weighs in as the Tokugawa family's account service, that can be an important part of rocking the heavens.
How can I do such a stupid thing?
Otherwise, the dean wanted to pick him up himself, but the Tokugawa family seemed to be watching him closely...
The dean can't even leave the mansion.
Ha ha! If you could do something with the help of Lord Accounting, there would be nothing like it! Ha ha!
Yes, by this time, the eyes of surveillance on Souyoshi Ishida, the dean of the school, had become tougher than ever.
Of course, he himself does not represent a move to flip the anti-flag against Tokugawa Jiayang again.
When the North government decorated after I and Chihime's wedding and became a high court, Soyo was relieved by her of the role of caretaker. It seems to some members of the Tokugawa family that this was an opportunity to move to the next course of action.
To the extent that we could see that he was obviously being watched, if Soo-yong even stepped outside the mansion, the samurai with a harsh look that did not suit the smiling school would come around him, and Soo-yong was often trying to flinch himself inside the mansion.
Still, his mansion is not even allowed to approach its surroundings, even those of Tokugawa, in the name of "safe storage of the school's research results".
In other words, there was no eye for surveillance for what was inside the mansion, and he was able to quietly perform his duties and welcome guests.
Now, it was Chief Okubo An who took the form of disgust being returned to him with disgust, but it seemed to convey correctly that I had no intention of harming him, and I unexpectedly showed him the plan to follow him to the back of all the boards.
To that appearance, Zhonghui gave a bright voice to Chang 'an.
"Chang 'an! Give my regards to the Dean of the School!
From that voice and expression, it is clear that I only think that Chang 'an will go to mere greetings from now on. But against such innocent fidelity, Chang 'an said,
"Yes, I did. I did accept your message."
And I answered with polite words. From there, there was no doubt about Zhonghui, there was no humiliating atmosphere, and he was honestly courteous in accepting his orders.
I saw his eyes at this time, and I was sure of one thing.
It's...
- After all, his evil that will remain in future generations will have been twisted by someone...
That was it.
………
……
The place, which entered one from the busy front street, was particularly quiet among the large school grounds.
The mansion was laid in seclusion.
The surrounding area is surrounded by bamboo, but it also seems like an idea that cannot be surrounded at the top by a large number of people.
And not clearly in the eyes, but there were many surveillance eyes shining around its bamboo shaft. They do not belong to Tokugawa. It was the watchful eye to protect the mansion set up by Souyoshi Ishida, the dean of the school and the owner of the mansion.
In other words, the mansion is surrounded by a castle-like atmosphere that does not allow many to venture, as it did in this era, when it became under the heavens of Tokugawa.
In the meantime, Daikubo Nan, who was taken by Akashi Omotesan, stood in front of the mansion alone, without even having his prized benign offerings on his side.
"Then please proceed as Souyoshi Ishida awaits you in the future"
Yes, all the boards urged themselves to stay outside and stay ahead of Chang 'an.
"Am I alone from here?"
"Yes... Lord Soo-yong is waiting for you alone"
"Well... you want to talk to me alone... more and more."
He was a long cheap with an ironic smile on his face, but all the boards are silently paving the way without answering anything to it.
Chang 'an stepped into the mansion with his big crotch in his stomach.
………
……
"Welcome aboard,"
Souyoshi Ishida welcomed him into the room in such a calm tone. Though it is its mansion, which looks insignificant, the room was large, with a large Western desk in the centre and chairs lined up.
In the deepest part of that room Soo-yong sat quietly,
Go ahead and call me.
And I said to Chang 'an, pointing to the chair in front of me.
Then Chang 'an, who had progressed to the front of the chair, looked behind Souyong and said in a low voice.
"I thought you heard that we were alone..."
"Ha... as you can see here, there are only two of them: Shin and Chang 'an..."
Soo-yong said that and looked around, it sure doesn't look like there are any people there but Nagaan Okubo and Soo-yong Ishida.
But Chang 'an looked rugged and continued with a grunting voice.
"Don't underestimate people too much. You smell like a woman... right behind you."
With that word, as the shadow grew all the way out, one young woman came out wearing a black sneaky outfit.
"First bud..."
Without even reviving, Soo-yong called out to the first bud who stood right behind him.
"I'm sorry. I hope I can help you..."
"I don't want to take care of you. Get out of here."
Sooner or later, in a thrusting tone of Zong Yong, the first bud bit his lip softly, lowering his head and disappearing like smoke from the spot.
Changan smiles bitterly at the way it is and stares at Soyo. Zong Yong also gave it back with a bitter laugh to that gaze.
"Come on, it doesn't make you that cold to a young woman."
"Hehe... because that's more important to you than a young woman..."
"Ha ha! Don't be so disgusting."
So chuckled Changan, sitting somewhat back in the chair in front of him, sat deeply and put his arms together. Soo-yong, on the other hand, has his elbows on his desk, his hands tied in front of his chin, and only his eyes peek into the long cheap.
"So... shall we get started... you were here at the corner. If you don't say hello carefully, you'll be rude."
"Hmm... 'Greetings' hey... fine. This is where you wanted to get along."
Souyoshi Ishida and Director Okubo.
This is how the meeting between the two men in the Chamber came to an end.
