"Actually, my opinion is different from yours. We are choosing our future for ourselves! We must not be emotional! I also think His Excellency Shimazu Yoshihiro is most likely to become the governor now!"
Dongxiang Zhongwei suddenly stopped when he said this, raised his head and stared at Du Fei for a long time, and then said fiercely: "These are troubled times! Any emotion will lead to one's own destruction! In order to survive, we must choose the strong.
!As your retainer and mother-in-law, I recommend that you support His Excellency Shimazu Yoshihiro!"
Du Fei never expected that Dongxiang Zhongwei would say this! He was speechless for a moment and just lowered his head in thought.
"At this time, you have only two choices! One is to declare support for His Excellency Shimazu Yoshihiro immediately after the death of the governor, and the other is" Togo Shigeki said and then stopped.
"You want me to betray the Shimazu family and become king on my own?" Du Fei looked at him with a smile.
"Don't look at me with disdain. As a samurai, you don't want to be the master of a country and a city? Even if they are our masters, don't they betray their masters and become kings on their own? Even if they are Zainijō Castle's
Didn’t the ancestors of His Excellency Ashikaga Yoshiki, the great general who conquered the barbarians, betray the Kamakura family and rise to power?" Togo Shigeshi became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice became louder and louder.
"Shut up!" Du Fei shouted righteously: "As a friend, I am very grateful to you for considering me, but I have absolutely no intention of rebellion! And if what you said happens and the house supervisor dies of a sudden illness, I will still
Choose to support His Excellency Shimazu Yoshihisa!"
Dongxiang Shigeki looked at him in surprise: "Why did you even tell yourself that he has almost no chance of winning?"
"Because it's no challenge to help the stronger party. I don't like the person who accepts your help because there is no suspense in itself, so I won't be very grateful to you~~~ But if you help the weaker party, it will be different. It is interesting and you will get more.
Great trust!" After Du Fei finished speaking, he patted the dumbfounded Dongxiang Zhongwei on the shoulder: "You are still too superficial in your understanding of the problem."
"Oh! That's it!" Dongxiang Chongwei touched his forehead and looked as if he had just woken up from a dream: "My lord, you are truly a brave and resourceful general! What you can see is so far-reaching! Only those who are extremely capable and courageous
Only people dare to do this! I am willing to make this dangerous attempt with you!"
"Don't think about what's next in a hurry. You go to each village to gather soldiers now. Remember, the more the better! You don't need to think about food and salary! Also, repair the city. The stronger it is, the better! Put the three pills and four
Maruya, build it for me! It can’t be worse than people robbing the city!” Du Fei finished speaking and gave him a note: “If you need money, go to my Chamber of Commerce in Yatsushiro Town to get it! This is the approval slip for 10,000 gu!
When people see the note, they will give you money."
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
"Who?" Du Fei and Dongxiang Zhongwei were both nervous.
I heard a familiar voice: "It's me, Kanbei Kobata!"
Du Fei opened the door excitedly and saw Kanbei Kobata, who had been away for many days, also looking happy: "Sir! Congratulations on becoming the Lord of the City!"
"What's the point of being a city lord? What if I have to be a kingdom lord in the future!" Du Fei said, turning to Dongxiang and saying, "You have to work harder. If you perform well, when I become the kingdom's lord, you will sit down."
The one who takes the position of Lord of Yujin City might be one of you two!"
Then Du Fei turned around and said to Dongxiang Zhongwei: "Remember what I just told you! We must gather together as quickly as possible! I will personally go to the inner city with Xiaoban to inquire about the master's condition.
News, be sure to manage this place well while I’m away!”
"Don't worry! My lord!" Dongxiang patted his chest and said, "It's my blessing to be able to work under you! I will definitely do everything you tell me!!"
Du Fei glanced at Togo Shigeki who was trembling with excitement with satisfaction, turned around and said to Kohata: "Let's set off soon, without further ado, we must find out Shimazu Takahisa's condition as soon as possible!"

dividing line
Kyushu Satsuma Country, the main city of the Shimadzu family——the inner city.
Since this was the ruling center of the Shimazu family, a large number of middle and low-level samurai living in the inner city built their own houses outside the city. Over time, a city outside the city grew up outside the city.
Although it is based on the main city, there are everything you need on the simple streets, including hotels, teahouses, restaurants, and various shops.
Du Fei and Xiao Ban, dressed as businessmen, hurried into a tavern with a hexagonal rhombus flag hanging at the door.
I saw that the tavern was full of vagabonds, drunkards, and gamblers.
The keen-eyed Xiaoban saw the busy tavern owner in the crowd at a glance, and he whistled excitedly at the man.
I saw the tavern owner looking around in shock, and seemed to be relieved after seeing Xiaoban: "It's you, the plague god, again!"
