"Since you're not Ji Ji, how dare you disrespect me?
Ohgusa has been serving the Shogun for generations, and Ohgusa is a member of the Ashikaga clan, shouldn't you call me "sir?"
Yiyin has been fighting for eight years and has been invincible. With the power of a man in a position of authority, how could Boss Kamemaru be able to stop him?
Boss Kamemaru turned pale and murmured. He was speechless in front of Yoshigan.
Yiyin stopped paying attention to her, turned to look at the tall grass, and said softly.
"Da Cao Ji, how much food do you owe her?"
Dacao Gaozhong was silent for a moment and said.
"When I borrowed it, it was two dan. Now with the interest, it's already five dan."
Yiyin nodded and understood.
Shiba Welfare provides a total of six koku a year, and three koku of food stamps are issued half a year. This time, Yoshino Bank allocates three koku of welfare grains to Ashikama Huizhong to provide real food for emergency relief.
Even if all three kilograms of grain were given to Kamemaru's boss, he still wouldn't be able to pay off the debt. The grass was tall and the whole family was hungry, so they would definitely not be able to survive this winter.
No wonder Da Cao Gao Chong was embarrassed by the loss of his family name and refused to let Boss Kamemaru take away the food.
Yoshigami glanced at the ugly-looking Hosokawa Fujitaka, thinking that she didn't want any unpleasantness to happen to Ninagawa himself, so she and Shini acted as peacemakers for both parties.
Unexpectedly, Yoshigan appeared at this moment and saw Hosokawa Fujitaka helping the businessman suppress the Samurai Hime. It was really embarrassing.
Yiyin couldn't help but shake his head.
Hosokawa Fujitaka is very smart, but he is too smart. The calculations of the shogunate samurai are engraved in his bones, and sometimes he seems utilitarian and unflattering.
Yoshihiro said to Ii Naomasa.
"Take people to the castle town, pay back the money Ogusahime owes to Kamemaru's boss, and get the IOU back.
By the way, I will ask other earth warehouses in the castle town to buy back all the IOUs from the Ashikaga Hui clan for the past two years, and the money and food will be paid out of my private treasury."
Ii Naomasa's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he glanced at Kamemaru, which frightened her face that had been smiling so brightly.
Yiyin frowned.
"Go quickly!"
After Ii Naomasa bowed, he left reluctantly. Daocao stood tall and tall, his lips trembling with gratitude, and he didn't know what to say.
In the past two years, due to Ashikaga Yoshiaki's salary arrears, there were 500 people in the Ashikaga Hui community, and almost everyone borrowed money from the castle town to survive.
At this time, Yiyin had wiped out all the money and food they had owed in the past two years.
The Ji warriors around him whispered to each other, spreading the good news quickly, and no one knew who shouted first.
“Saint onboard!”
This sound seemed to ignite everyone's enthusiasm, and the Ji warriors present almost made a wave of noise, shouting over and over again.
"Sage onboard! Onboard! Onboard!"
Boss Kamemaru, who seemed out of place in the noise, felt uncomfortable all over. She bowed and wanted to leave, but was blocked back by the crowd.
As soon as Yiyin stretched out his hand, the shouting Ji warriors immediately responded, as if they were Yiyin's most loyal subordinates and completely obeyed Yiyin's orders.
Glancing at the pale-faced Boss Kamemaru, Yoshigan said.
"Don't leave in a hurry. Now that the debt issue has been settled, it's your turn to do things without distinction.
At the foot of Kyoto, at the center of the shogunate, the laws of the samurai family do not allow for frivolous provocation. Today, such a bad incident of provoking businessmen and trampling on the dignity of the samurai family is intolerable.
Someone come!”
"exist!"
The surrounding Ashikaga warriors responded together, including Ogusa Takagi who was standing at the front, all waiting for Yoshigami's instructions.
Yoshigan pointed at Kamemaru's face, which was paler than a dead man, and said calmly.
"We captured three of them and ransacked this guy's house. We took all the family members to the bank of Kamogawa River and beheaded them in public. Their bodies were exposed for three days to serve as a warning to others."
Before Yoshigan finished speaking, Kamemaru had already fallen to the ground, crying.
"Sage, spare your life! I am... I am... Qin..."
Yiyin shouted loudly.
"I don't care who you are!
The Ashikaga Horsemen are loyal and resolute, and stick to their duties. They are a model of justice for the samurai family in the world. Their dignity cannot be shamed! Their family name cannot be trampled on!
Come on! Take it!"
Boss Kamemaru had already fallen to the ground and did not dare to resist, but the two wild samurai behind her were fierce and wanted to draw their swords in order to survive.
Da Cao was tall and heavy, with quick eyesight and quick hands, and he used the sword-drawing technique to cut off the wrist of a man who was drawing a sword.
Then he shrank and stabbed directly into the other person's arms, piercing the heart with the knife, stirring it up like venting hatred, and smashing his heart into pieces.
A group of Ji warriors around him applauded, and Dacao's masterful swordsmanship and extremely quick reactions attracted applause.
At the same time, Yoshigami grabbed Tachibana Kanade's wrist, looked at the three-eyed gun in her hand before she could light it, and cursed.
"How many times have I told you? Don't suddenly shoot me next to my ear. My eardrums can't stand it! Don't you have a knife?"
Lihua Zuo curled his lips.
"For musket effect."
Yiyin spat.
"What the hell, it's not a revolver. What's better than a fire door gun?"
"Sage, what is a revolver?"
"How did I know? Let's talk about it in three hundred years!"
Yoshigami cursed Tachibana Kanou casually, but in his heart he was angry with Ninagawa and other greedy ministers. Are they crazy about money?
The earthen warehouse opened by the shogunate in Kyoto is forcing the Ashikaga warriors to go to a dead end, and that is a total of five hundred Hime samurai!
In recent times, Sibo had a territory of 200,000 shi, and the registered retainers of Sibo were only 1,500.
If the Ashikaga Hui people are really driven into desperation, Yoshigan can't even imagine what Kyoto will look like. It might turn into a hell on earth.
As a last resort, Yoshigan could only take back those IOUs as soon as possible and kill Kamemaru and his entire family so that the Ashikaga clan could vent their anger.
To be honest, Yiyin is not trying to win people's hearts at this time, he is really afraid of the riots in Kyoto.
The total number of Shiba family's garrison in Kyoto does not include five hundred Hime warriors. If five hundred desperate Hime warriors suddenly appeared from the inner city, just thinking about that scene would make Yoshigan break into a cold sweat.
Those short-sighted ministers, do they know what they are doing?
