The Takaoka family is an old samurai family of Omi Kingdom and has a deep relationship with various Buddhist sects. The Mitsui Temple in the territory is the hub of communication for various sects of Omi Buddhism.

After the Oda family occupied Minami Omi, the Takaoka family broke away from the triangular retainer sequence and switched to Oda Nobunaga.

However, the Takaoka family still had a thought in mind, allowing Takaoka Keito to return to secular life from Mitsui-ji Temple and join General Ashikaga Yoshiaki, thus leaving a way out for the family.

Takaoka Kageyou was originally the abbot of Mitsui Temple Kojoyin. Logically speaking, Master Kakushu should not show off to Takaoka Kageyou whether it was for the sake of the Takaoka family or Mitsui Temple.

But regarding the crisis of the siege of Mount Hiei, Lord Kakushu is not interested at all in the dirty things within the shogunate. She is only thinking about Enryaku Temple's own vital interests.

Seeing that Master Jueshu came out to be a bad guy, Yiyin slowly came out to be a good guy, he said with a smile.

"Master Juexu, please calm down. Princess Takaoka is just giving a message to the general."

Seeing Sibo Yiyin acting well after getting a bargain, Master Jueshu said solemnly.

"This is wrong in Jinduo Hall. This is the fundamental center hall. In front of the seat of Medicine Master Tathagata, this is a place that is outside the Three Realms and is not among the Five Elements.

Regarding the secular affairs of the shogunate, I also ask you to be careful in your words and deeds, so as not to lose your dignity in front of the Tathagata."

These words seemed to be educating Yoshiyin, but in fact they were trying to stop Yoshiyin from talking.

Sure enough, Takaoka Keito bowed to apologize and stopped talking, but felt sad in his heart.

If Ashikaga Yoshiteru had been in power and the previous Odaisho had gone up to the mountain to speak out, would Master Kakushu have been so strong-willed that he had to sever the relationship?

In the final analysis, Ashikaga Yoshiaki's shogunate was in a mess. This general brought the popularity of the Ashikaga family into a ditch. Even the old nun on Mount Hiei dared not to take the shogunate seriously.

Yiyin smiled and sang a double act with Master Jueshu.

"Master's words are serious, but what you say is also correct.

I have already retired from my residence and become a monk to practice Buddhism. I really don’t have any position in the shogunate. No matter what the general wants to say, I will politely decline, so it’s okay not to listen.”

The most treacherous thing about Yoshigan is that he completely quit the Kyoto shogunate.

The representative of the powerful local faction in the shogunate was the leader, Hatakeyama Takamasa, while the Shiba family's diplomat stationed in Kyoto as a local feudal lord was Akechi Mitsuhide.
