September 2010 Hakone
Now, from the third of the five letters of admonition.
Mitsu Not at all. Until you can see the blister, let go of the swelling. "Don't cheat on the children of Mizuna."
"Dear Left, it is still too early for the Three Wizards, but those who perish with alcohol, women, and botrytism are mostly fools of their own. But this can be used in all situations, so please remember."
Yes!
Was it a little sweet this time, or did you look like "well, the first point"?
Well, it's a little early to say that you owe money to a toddler. Certainly, there was a guy who put his hand on a teapot he didn't even know about to catch up with the fashion of Kyoto, and held a debt to the snowman ceremony, right?
Maybe the expensive stuff feels good, and I think I've bought more and more of it.
When it comes to tea ware, it comes to my grandfather's mind, but he just lit the collector's soul on fire. It makes sense to collect it, and then I feel like I don't know it.
When I went to the private room at Yasuchi Castle the other day, the teaware was left there. That's a great story because it's worth the same as the castle.
Yes, Hideyoshi doesn't know the value of tea ware, but it was written in the sentence that he knows it's worth something. I don't know if that's okay, but even if you know it badly, you won't be in trouble.
"Yo. To melt the kettle. Never let your eyes fall for your own sake."
"Lord Left, do not despise the king, nor the people. Indeed, the king stands above the people, but there is not enough king without the people. Never forget the people."
Yes!
This may be the most important thing. The king must enrich the country, but if the people suffer from heavy taxes, the fields will be rough, the country will be rough, and eventually the country will be destroyed. Okay, here we go.
And if thou shalt stand upon a man, thou shalt protect him that is below him. Otherwise, people won't follow me and I'll rule the country.
Even a samurai can't start a fight. The cooperation of farmers, traders and many others leads to victory.
The third generation of the Hojo family is said to have shed tears when Hojo Tsuyasu, the current lord, died. I have to be a king that people admire! I don't want to be an arrogant nobleman in medieval Europe.
He will not be recognized because he will be king, but because he has been recognized by the people. With that in mind, let's do it every day.
"While. It is too irritating. Kaisho sprinkles the bean paste of Mikata, and makes the bean paste softer. Therefore, it is not as exciting as when it was."
"Dear Left, if you continue to win, you will be proud and despise your enemies from your heart. When Yoshimoto Imagawa was destroyed, the Imagawa family was destroyed because Yoshimoto was too slow. Exactly. Win and tighten your helmet. Don't forget the three wizards."
Yes!
Win and tighten your helmet... It was a word I had heard, but it was the word of the Hitori.
Is it true that Grandpa killed Yoshimoto Imakawa in the battle between the barrels? At the time, my grandfather was weak, so I didn't think he would lose, so I guess he was alarmed. Exactly a mighty enemy, you don't want to die, you have to be careful.
Hang on, Grandpa's been rude. Grandpa said he didn't want to do it again, and maybe it was a close fight.
"There are many famous generals to this. That Takeda Shingen was obsessed with how to win. Winning a battle means five minutes up, seven minutes in, and enough down. That's what I have to say."
"As a matter of course, if you win a five-minute victory, you will be encouraged to try hard in the future. If you win a seven-minute victory, your mind will relax, and if you win a full victory, your enemies will be scorned and your reward will be paid... That laziness and contempt will cause you to lose. He praised the military god, Kenshin Uesugi, for his profound words."
"I see...."
That's an interesting idea. After all, is it a similar idea to be a famous general in history? It's pretty amazing that you're even praised by a good enemy.
"The Three Wizards should also try to find their own way to win."
Yes!
My own way of winning... Looks like it's going to be a challenge in the future.
"Looks like you've been studying hard. I'm impressed."
Thanks to the Hojo family's five letters of admonition, and the fact that I was able to safely say all of them, it seems that Master is also pleased.
"Mr. Funakasu has succeeded Mr. Funasa in his will and has earned the credit that he deserves today. He protected his country from enemies, protected his people from famine, disasters, official injustice, and worshipped him."
"Many irregularities were detected through a thorough examination of the status of various appointments in the territory. We have also prepared and detailed a directory of Odawara's people so that the control of the family and the people can be more smoothly carried out. This helped clarify the burdens on the family and the people."
"In addition, we have created rating boxes and guidebooks to monitor the people of China and prevent fraud, as well as tax reform. Of course, there were times when it wasn't a single line, but I became a famous man because I was persevering in internal affairs. Even Master San should be encouraged even more."
Yes!
I feel a strong respect for the master's words. I suppose you respected Hojo Utsuna and Utsuyasu as much as you did.
Indeed, Master said that he was hiding at the time of his death. I may have been old, but I may have been burned up by the grief of losing my respected master.
When I think about it, I think that you have welcomed me as an apprentice, and I think that I was recognized as a living legend by my master, so I can feel confident with myself.
I knew you were right to come to the Hojo house! There is a mirror of a famous man who can learn first-hand about the good governance that he has left behind. It's the best environment I've ever seen.
When I noticed, it was already dark around, and it would be time for the evening. In this lesson, I felt the flow of time quickly because I was quite focused.
It's over for today, and we have to do our best tomorrow!
I was completely out of my mind at this time. Specifically, I think about evenings and hot springs. I am beginning to realize that Master will not miss such an alarm.
Now, the second question.
"Eh!?
The moment you let down that you passed the strike test, you ruthlessly started the second round.
This is exactly what happens when you try to tighten your helmet to win the big game.
"Master Sanji-sama, is something wrong? It's not over yet, is it?
I will never forget my master's face at this time.
Looking at Niyaniya and Kochira, it can be seen that they were completely targeting. Besides, even though it doesn't seem like a joke, it's even worse.
It seems that the light didn't go out until late this evening.
... that jijijii, one of these days!
