Chapter 465 Secret(2/2)
The Ashikaga Shogun's family used documents to elevate the status of the Yamauchi Uesugi family in order to stir up her family's ambitions and lay hidden dangers for Kanto.
In recent years, the generals and governors have been fighting for the power of the shogunate for so many years, and there have been countless civil strife.
If the Kanto leader is removed from Kanto, he will naturally compete with the Kanto general for authority.
Then we can divert trouble to the east and let dogs bite dogs behind closed doors in Kanto, lest they come back to cause trouble in recent days.
Ashikaga Shogun deliberately guided him, and the ten countries of Kanto had already circulated this name privately. If the Kanto Shogun family wanted to deny it, there was no reason to impose severe sanctions.
How to refute rumors about such a complimentary honorific? The more forbidden it is, the faster it will spread.
The Kanto Shogun family had no choice but to ignore it, while the Yamauchi-Uesugi family benefited from the situation and sneered silently without clarifying the matter.
After several generations, the honorific title of the Kanto Governor gradually became blurred, and everyone thought it was a service position.
Yiyin's heart was cold.
In this generation, the Kanto generals were raised by the Hojo family, the Yamauchi Uesugi family was exterminated, and only the Uesugi Kensei escaped.
Then she came to Echigo to find Terutora Uesugi, and used the name of the Uesugi family in Yamauchi to seduce her and let her fight with the Hojo family.
Afraid that Terutora Uesugi might think it was not enough, he simply added the non-existent post of Kanto Governor.
The Hojo family must not have known that the position of Kanto Governor was fake, otherwise they would have come forward to clarify and would not have allowed their political opponents to occupy the political commanding heights.
What about General Kanto? She didn't tell the Hojo family about this?
The young master of the Hojo family was eating the offerings from the Hojo family and sleeping, secretly sneering at the new Uesugi family of the Hojo family and Teru Uesugi preparing to fight for their lives.
Both families believed that the official position of the Kanto Governor was genuine, and that the new Uesugi family had the right to manage the Kanto Plain, so they would naturally fight to produce a result.
The insiders hid behind the scenes and watched the joke. Maybe through this incident, Kenmasa Uesugi could cause civil strife in the new Uesugi family in the future.
So what about Ashikaga Yoshiteru? Why did she grant Teru Uesugi the position of Warden of Kanto? She should also know that this position does not exist!
Shiba Yiyin, who had just taken her sword and felt a little warm toward her, gradually became colder.
The Shogun's family, the Kanto Shogun's family, and the Yamauchi Uesugi family are all in dire straits, but these family governors are not simple, each one is worse than the last.
It would be best if both Uesugi Teruhu and the Hojo family lose in a fight.
Assuming that Uesugi Teruhora is weak and fails, the Hojo family will have to be wary of the powerful enemy on the other side of the Echigo Mountains and will be unable to expand their family business.
If Terutora Uesugi becomes powerful, she only needs to look through the files and suddenly find that the official position of the Kanto Governor does not exist. If she strips it off, she will lose the legal basis for occupying the Kanto Plain.
Regardless of the outcome, as long as the Kanto Plain cannot be stabilized, it will be the best outcome for Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
Yiyin's heart sank like water.
It turns out that before I even left Kyoto, Ashikaga Yoshiteru had already controlled the Kanto strategy.
She doesn't know that I have the task of helping Teru Uesugi restore a clear world in Kanto, and I must reorganize the order here.
She just stood on the side of General Ashikaga and hoped that Kanto would remain in chaos forever and not be successfully integrated by anyone.
