Facts have proved that this place is indeed not serious.
After the Tongxin crowd rushed in, men's exclamations could be heard inside, and then groups of disheveled men and women were dragged out of the tavern and knelt in front of Yiyin Horse.
Warrior Ji, who was still cursing at first, suddenly turned into a quail when he heard that the thing thrown out just now disturbed the passing imperial office. They all bowed their heads and knelt down, not daring to act any more recklessly.
Yiyin's eyes were fixed on the sign of the wine shop and he said nothing.
Kyoto is at the foot of the shogun and the center of the shogunate, and the operation of the castle towns has its own rules.
The main street of the castle town should be the shops where serious business is done. The business of taking off crotchless pants must go to the verandah, where there is a specially planned area.
Eating and drinking, men and women, keep people's great desires alive.
You carry the tools of crime with you, and you can't stop them by stopping them. Since you can't stop them, just pay the tax.
The wandering men in Kyoto's arcades have always been the major tax payers in the castle towns. The leader of the wandering men is called the Taifu, and many women flock to him, making money every day.
Kyoto is prosperous, and there is no shortage of wealthy people who want to win over men and spend a lot of money. Taxes on the arcades are a major source of income for the shogunate, so they naturally do not allow outsiders to mess around.
A bar like this one sells crotchless pants outside the verandah. In theory, the bar owner should have been taken to the edge of the Kamogawa River and disemboweled to warn the world.
The business outside the arcade is all done by dark men, mostly for tax evasion. Dare to poach the shogunate's important tax source? Yoshigan doesn't know where this pub has the courage.
Naomasa Ii, who took the lead in rushing into the bar, came back with a red face to report.
"At the Imperial Palace, there was a conflict between two groups of Ji warriors fighting for Yu Nan.
There is a bastard who threw that... that thing... in front of you. He really deserves death."
Yoshigan looked at Ii Naomasa's little face as red as an apple, suddenly became playful and asked.
"Is Yu Nan good-looking?"
Because of the selfishness of the Kamao clan, all the members of the group are half-grown lolita, and Naomasa Ii is the youngest among them.
This anti-pornography raid made these little girls blush with shame.
Naomasa Ii had a strong temper and said with a pinched neck.
"What's so good about a caterpillar! It's either skinny and bones or just lumps of fat. It's so disgusting! It's not as handsome as Godaisho!"
Her shouting made Yiyin tremble in fright, and she coughed twice to cover up her embarrassment.
Ii Naomasa's childish words were unbridled, and Kamojigo on the side slapped her on the head and cursed.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Takada Yukino on the side secretly glanced at the blushing Yoshigoshi and thought to herself, the master does have a good-looking figure.
Yiyin failed to tease Loli, but was yelled at so much that his face became hot. He quickly pretended to be serious and asked.
"Where did these Ji warriors come from? They don't understand the rules so well? Do you want to declare the dignity of the shogunate in broad daylight on the main street?"
Naomasa Ii bowed and said.
"The imperial office, I have already asked, it belongs to the Oda family and the Tokugawa family.
I heard that there have been a lot of fights in the past few days, and they were all jealousy, drunkenness, and bad things."
Yiyin was stunned.
"Oda? Tokugawa?"
When Oda Nobunaga entered Kyoto, he ordered Oda's troops not to disturb Kyoto, and this matter had already reached Yoshigan's ears.
And Tokugawa Ieyasu was always cautious in doing things. How could she not restrain her subordinates when she had just arrived?
Isn't the conflict between these two allies a joke for the people in the Kyoto shogunate?
Originally, the samurai family had looked down on the country bumpkins from Tokaido in recent years, but this time it was good, it confirmed the reputation of Owari people and Mikawa people as being rude.
Yiyin vaguely felt something was wrong, this matter was very strange.
Before he had time to think about it, a group of people were already running from a distance and were stopped by the Tongxin people.
The leader saw him sitting on a horse coming to Yiyin and shouted.
"Odaisho, Hideyoshi would like to see you!"
Yoshigan looked up and saw that it was Hideyoshi Hashiba, and motioned to the others to let her come over.
Hashiba Hideyoshi rushed to Yoshigashi in a few steps, wiped the sweat from running over, bowed deeply and said.
"The Imperial Palace is safe!"
Yiyin smiled.
"Long time no see, Hideyoshi, have you followed Oda-dono to Kyoto?"
Hideyoshi Hashiba answered respectfully.
"Hi, thanks to His Highness's favor, I am temporarily responsible for the defense of Beijing."
Yoshiyoshi's pupils shrank and he looked at Hideyoshi with a sincere smile on his face.
Is she in charge of the defense of Kyoto? Is there anyone left in the Oda family? A lot of important ministers are not being used, and a man with a thousand stones is left in charge of such an important central place in Kyoto?
Yiyin smiled.
"Then Hideyoshi, you have worked very hard."
Hideyoshi lowered his head and said.
"I don't dare, it's all thanks to the palace."
In fact, she kept feeling bitter in her heart. She originally thought this was a fat job, but it turned out not to be as good as she imagined.
How could the arrogant warriors of the Oda family be willing to give face to Hideyoshi, who was born as a commoner?
She is not a senior minister like Niwa Nagahide or Shibata Katsuie, but Shiba Hideyoshi is just a p!
Restricting Oda's military strength already made Hideyoshi Hashiba very anxious. But for some reason, the Tokugawa family's Mikawa Princess warrior suddenly became restless and provoked the Owari Princess warrior every day.
Oda Nobunaga laid two million stones, and the Owari people considered themselves direct descendants and superior to others. How could they bow to the inferior people from Mikawa? Since then, conflicts have continued.
Poor Hashiba Hideyoshi, she had no ability to hold the Owari people back, and the Mikawa people didn't take her seriously either. She was exhausted all day long, but to no avail.
However, she was reluctant to give up her power to defend Kyoto and return it to Oda Nobunaga, so she could only grit her teeth and persist.
Seeing the grimace on her face, Yiyin also sympathized with her situation. But sympathy was sympathy. At Yiyin's level, of course he would not interfere in such a trivial matter such as a street fight. It would be too disrespectful to his status.
The two gangs of thugs fought so hard that they threw their crotchless pants in front of Yiyin Royal Palace. If this matter comes to a head, the troublemakers on both sides will have their skins peeled off.
Yoshigan looked at the crotch cloth on the ground, then looked at Hideyoshi's bitter face, and said.
"Forget it, I'm still rushing to Nijo Imperial Palace. Hideyoshi, I'll leave the matter here to you."
After saying that, Yiyin ordered everyone to return to the team, ignored the mess, and left across the street.
Hideyoshi bowed respectfully, watched Yoshigin go away, and wiped the fresh cold sweat from his forehead.
Takenaka Shigeharu walked to her side, and Hideyoshi looked at his military advisor with a cry in his tone.
"Hime Takenaka, should I go and resign from the main hall? I can't do this job anymore. They dared to rush in front of the imperial palace. I was scared to death."
Takenaka Shigeharu looked at the Spoma team retreating in the distance and asked.
"My lord, you have such a good relationship with the imperial office? He left without any further investigation."
Hideyoshi Hashiba said proudly.
"Of course, my name, Hideyoshi, was given by Odai!
No, I'm not telling you this, I'm asking you what to do?
I can't get through this day, so why don't I resign? Fortunately, the person I bumped into today was Otai Suo. He is kind-hearted, and I still have some kindness to use, so no big trouble happened.
If this happens again next time and I bump into some big shot, I really don’t know how it will end!”
Takenaka Shigeharu smiled slightly and said.
"You're saying the opposite. It's precisely because these idiots broke into the imperial office that your job as a guard in Kyoto became easier."
"Forehead?"
Hashiba Hideyoshi was stunned, and before he could react, Takenaka Shigeharu had already scolded him harshly.
"Bring everyone back! Interrogate them strictly! No one who pleads for mercy will be let go!
They dared to rush into the Imperial Palace. They must find out if there is someone with evil intentions and an assassination attempt!
Please, Your Majesty, immediately report to His Majesty Oda and His Majesty Tokugawa that the Kyonaka Hime samurai acted in an unruly and disorderly manner and rushed to the Imperial Palace, and I beg them to determine the culpability."
Takenaka Shigeharu blinked at Hashiba Hideyoshi, and Hashiba Hideyoshi reacted immediately.
What a great opportunity!
The people of Owari and Mikawa did not take Hideyoshi Hashiba seriously at all, and they could not persuade him no matter how hard they tried, nor did they dare to punish him. A general in the army would always come to intercede and take him away.
Now that it's all right, if he is charged with assaulting the Imperial Palace, who dares to plead for mercy? Who dares to let him go?
In the past, the matter was too small and it was inconvenient for Hashiba Hideyoshi to report it to Oda Nobunaga, which showed that he was incompetent. He had to rely on the master to intervene in everything, so why did he support a waste like himself?
Now it's okay, let's make a big fuss about the Odaisho incident and make the whole world tremble, causing Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu to tremble.
As long as the two highnesses come forward, all the arrogant soldiers and brave generals will have to lie down, and the job of guarding the capital can really be completed.
Hashiba Hideyoshi, with the help of Shiba Yoshigan, Oda Nobunaga, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, is still afraid that these Owari Mikawa bastards will disobey? Will they continue to cause trouble?
After thinking about the joints, Hashiba Hideyoshi suddenly smiled. Then she immediately straightened her face and shouted.
"Yes! Take them all back for review!
You are really out of line. You dare to disturb the Imperial Palace and you must be severely punished! I want to report it to His Majesty Oda and His Majesty Tokugawa for judgment!"
The Ji warriors who had been forced to kneel down by the Tongxin people were all crestfallen and resigned, and no one dared to speak out to refute.
Hideyoshi Hashiba was furious for a while, feeling that all the grievances he had been feeling for the past few days were pouring out.
She looked at Shiba Yiyin, who had disappeared in the distance, and thought. Today, through the name of the imperial palace, she can know the majesty of the superior.
A grown-up woman should have such an ear, and he can be replaced.
———
Yoshihiro didn't know that the Ji warriors who were making trouble behind him were afraid of his majesty and cowered like rats to cooperate with the arrest. He also didn't know how coveted Hashiba Hideyoshi was for this kind of majesty.
In his eyes, this was just a small episode on the road to Shangluo, not even a joke.
The streets in Kyoto are in the shape of a checkerboard, with strips arranged horizontally and vertically from east to west, and from north to south.
The east and west along the road are named after jojo, namely ten jojo, nine jojo, eight jojo, etc., spreading from south to north, and Nijo Castle is located between Nijo and Sanjo.
Crossing the Uji River, you will see the Kamogawa River in front of you.
The Kono River and Kamo River merge into the Kamogawa River in the urban area and merge into the Katsura River to the southwest, and finally merge with the Yodogawa River.
Yiyin, Tongxinzhong and his party landed at Jujo along the west bank of the Kamogawa River and headed north to Nijo.
At this time, spring is shining brightly in the Kyoto Basin, green mountains and green waters are pleasing to the body and mind, and ancient temples and gardens are scattered on both sides of the streets.
The northern part of Kyoto was the imperial court of the ancient imperial court. The third generation of shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu massacred the emperor's ministers, and the northern part became depressed.
Along with the Shinto religion, which had close ties with the emperor, it was destroyed, leaving only the Buddhist temples that had surrendered to the Ashikaga Shogunate and still prospered.
After the decline of the Imperial Palace area, the core area of Kyoto moved southward to the center of the shogunate in Muromachi, the Flower Palace established by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.
After the Yatsudai Shogun Rebellion, the Flower Imperial Palace also gradually withered. This time Miyoshi went to Luo, the Imperial Palace accidentally caught fire. The fire was so powerful that the entire Imperial Palace burned down.
As a last resort, the center of the shogunate was moved to Nijo Castle built by Ashikaga Yoshiteru. Nijo Castle, originally used as a military castle, was hastily transformed into an imperial palace by the shogunate to welcome the new master.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki completed the ceremony of going to the city, and was finally welcomed into the Nijo Imperial Palace by the ministers headed by Ise Sakyo.
When Yoshigan returns to the capital this time, no matter where he ends up staying, he must first go to Nijo Imperial Palace to swear his sovereignty.
Before Ashikaga Yoshiaki succeeded the Ashikaga Shogun and before Yoshigan handed over the golden seal of the sword, Yoshigan himself was the direct descendant of the Genji family in Kawachi, the pillar of the samurai family, and the representative figure of the Ashikaga shogun family.
Even if the thoughts of Ashikaga Naomichi are impure and the ministers deliberately try to please the new master, it cannot change the fact that Ashikaga Yoshiaki is not qualified.
If Yoshigan does not go to the Nijo Imperial Palace, he is tacitly admitting that Ashikaga Yoshiaki can already represent the Ashikaga Shogun family in discussing political affairs, which he cannot tolerate.
I will return the Ashikaga Shogun's house to you. But when I give it to you, I have the final say. You can't rob it. This is a political principle and cannot be vague.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki followed Oda Nobunaga to Luo and moved directly into the Nijo Imperial Palace. This violated Yoshigan's taboo.
Today, Yoshigami is here to give the Ashikaga widow a hard time. Let her know the importance and not be too anxious to get the upper hand and forget who has the initiative.
Outside the gate of Nijo Imperial Palace, Yagyu Sogan saw Yoshigan's cavalry from a distance and stepped forward to bow in salute.
Yoshigan dismounted, threw his whip to the crowd behind him, and strode forward without paying any attention to Yagyu Sogan, who was saluting.
Yagyu Soyan quickly followed and said.
"The Imperial Palace..."
Yiyin pointed to the closed imperial palace door and said coldly.
"Open the door!"
He turned back and stared at Yagyu Munegan, the former shogunate's former chief minister. Yagyu Munehan shook unconsciously and shouted.
"Open the door! Warmly welcome the emperor to enter."
Yiyin nodded with satisfaction and said.
"She still knows the rules."
Yagyu Zongyan smiled apologetically, but he was complaining in his heart.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki was stunned by the compliments of the shogunate and moved into the Nijo Imperial Palace without permission. Oda Nobunaga was happy to see her conflict with Shiba Yoshigan and did not warn him.
When Yoshihiro Shiba entered the capital, Ashikaga Yoshiaki became anxious, worried that his arrogant behavior would offend this powerful and cheap brother-in-law.
She was not sure, so she sent Yagyu Zongyan out to test her.
Yagyu Soen cursed in his heart, Ashikaga Yoshiaki is really stupid and cowardly. Even if she has done something wrong and takes the initiative to admit her mistake, Odaisho is not an unreasonable person.
Now, if he drags his nameless and unworthy predecessor, Damufu, to stand in front of him, isn't it obvious that he has a guilty conscience?
I hated him in my heart, but my wish to return to the shogunate was about to be fulfilled, and the position of Omatsu would depend on Ashikaga Yoshiaki's coming to power, so Yagyu Sogan could only bite the bullet and accept this hard job.
With such an irresponsible coward, Yagyu Muneyan was helpless.
The blame is only on one's own selfish desires. This sin is self-inflicted and cannot be blamed on others.
