Chapter 1424 It’s really shameless

 The only person that Yoshiyin clings to is the identity of the elder Genji.

The elders of the Genji family, the pillars of the Wu family, and the shoguns are the three-tiered relationship between the Genji ethnic group, the samurai group, and the head of the political power, establishing the leadership of the direct descendants of the Genji clan in Hanoi over the world's samurai families.

Although Yoshigan took the initiative to get rid of the Ashikaga family's grand office, he took advantage of Ashikaga Yoshiaki's immoral and immoral behavior to give himself the name of an elder of the Genji family.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki bullied the widow who had driven away his sister, and had no shame in refuting Yoshigan, so he could only pretend to be stupid and ignore him. The more disappointed the samurai were with Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the more they recognized Yoshigan Shiba, the elder of the Genji family.

Yoshigan took away part of the title of direct descendant of Kawachi Genji from the hands of the general Ashikaga Yoshiaki, making Ashikaga Yoshiaki suffer a dumb loss.

He can claim to be indifferent to the shogunate and evade his rights and obligations to the shogunate. Because as an elder of the Genji clan, he dictates everything in the world and has nothing to do with the shogunate.

Yoshihiro's words were reasonable and reasonable, and the eloquent Takaoka Keiyu fell silent after hearing them. He could only blame his stupid general for not doing human affairs.

Having confidently cut off the olive branch offered by Ashikaga Yoshiaki, Yoshigami brought the topic back to the siege of Mount Hiei and said to Master Kakushu.

"The Master is right when he says that people outside the Three Realms are outside the Three Realms and are not among the Five Elements.

Mount Hiei has a transcendent status. Why did he participate in the war of the samurai family and break the tacit understanding between the samurai family and the sect?

I really don’t understand this.”

Yoshigan took a preemptive strike and pointed the finger at Lord Kakushu, pushing the responsibility for the siege of Mount Hiei onto the Tendai Sect.

He promised Oda Nobunaga that he would ask for compensation from Enryakuji Temple on her behalf. There must be an explanation for this matter, otherwise Oda Nobunaga would not be able to sign the armistice agreement because of his character of wanting to save face and not suffer any loss.

Master Jueshu was very embarrassed. Not to mention Yiyin didn’t understand, she didn’t understand either!

She just went to Kyoto to attend a Buddhist meeting and left Mount Hiei for a while.

Who would have thought that those idiots from the Enryakuji Temple would accept bribes from the Asai family and send troops down the mountain to participate in the siege of Mori Katsunari.

What is even more embarrassing is that the coalition forces of Asai Asakura and Master Yama fought together, but they still failed to capture Sakamoto Castle and only killed Katsunari Mori.

Just because the coalition forces failed to capture Sakamoto Castle, Oda Nobunaga was able to quickly counterattack and block the Asai Asakura coalition forces that lacked depth at Mount Hiei, leaving the Tendai Sect in a state of confusion and confusion.

Not to mention that the Yamaboshi of Mount Hiei never interfered with government affairs. From 800 years ago to the present, Yamaboshi has been doing this kind of work.

Even during the Genpei War, when the Genji was in trouble, Master Yamada dared not to harm Kiyomori, but he still dared to protect Genji's surviving daughter, Minamoto Yoshitsune.

But the problem is that times have changed. The Ni Corps has long been no match for the Ji Samurai Corps. If they can't beat them, they still insist on joining in. Isn't this a bit of a joke?

So after being cornered by Yiyin's words, Master Jueshu really didn't know how to answer.

If this battle is won, the Tiantai Sect can straighten its back and say, let’s just go down the mountain and fight, so what!

But now that they have lost the battle and are surrounded by others, Enryakuji has no choice but to pretend to be a grandson, hoping that the big problem will be reduced to a small one.

Master Jueshu was silent for a long time, clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said.

"This is all the responsibility of the poor nun. The poor nun is willing to take responsibility and let the Oda family handle it.

But the lives of tens of thousands of nuns on Mount Hiei, please ask Tsutado-don to be merciful and find a way out for them."

Master Jueshu has been the leader of the Tiantai Sect for so many years. He can suppress the bastards like the sect and keep them in check. He is certainly a powerful person.

She knew that it would be useless to argue at this time, so she simply lowered her attitude to the lowest level and sincerely asked Yiyin for help.

How is that possible when you say you are left to your own devices?

Master Kakushu is the head of the Tiantai Sect. If Oda Nobunaga is really arrogant enough to convict and enforce the law against her, he will completely destroy the face of all Buddhist sects in the world.

Even if Oda Nobunaga goes crazy and Yoshigami comes all the way from Kanto to mediate, it is impossible for the Tendai Sect Master to suffer this humiliation.

If that really happens, it will not only be embarrassing to Master Chueshu, but also to him, Si Bo Yiyin.

It was precisely because Master Jueshu saw this that he humbled himself and gave Yiyin face.

Yiyin secretly praised Master Jueshu. This old nun was indeed on the right path, and she was soft-spoken both inside and outside of her words, allowing Yiyin to make conditions with peace of mind.

"Master Kakushu has said something stern again. Mount Hiei is the father mountain of Buddhism in the island country, and His Highness Oda naturally knows how to respect it.

However, the Tendai Sect violated the principle of non-interference between the samurai sects and must compensate the Oda family for their losses.

Fifty thousand dollars, what do you think?"

Yoshihiro's offer was not excessive. In order to test the stance of Ishiyama Honganji Temple, Oda Nobunaga also asked Master Hiroto to pay military expenses of 5,000 kan to show his support.

Although they were rejected, it can be seen that the masters of these large sects are really rich.

Mount Hiei sent troops to attack Sakamoto Castle, resulting in the death of Oda's important minister Morikasaki in the battle. This was a serious feud.

Fortunately, Sakamoto Castle did not miss, and the Asai Asakura coalition did not substantially break the Oda family's defense line in Kyoto and Minamiomi. This feud is not deep enough and can be solved with money.

Fifty thousand gu, equivalent to the entire net worth of a wealthy businessman in Sakai Port. As one of the three wealthy businessmen, Imai Munehisa's net worth before joining the Shiba family was only 100,000 gu.

Yoshigan was helping Oda Nobunaga to rip off the Enryaku Temple. Although this money could not completely calm Oda Nobunaga's anger, it could at least ensure that she would no longer settle accounts with the bald donkey of the Tendai Sect.

After all, it was a lot of money, and Oda Nobunaga was fighting all day long, so she was very short of money. For the sake of the money, and with Yoshihiro as a guarantee, the Tendai Sect had passed the test.

When the lion of Yiyin opened his mouth, Master Jueshu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although 50,000 yuan is not a small amount, the Tiantai Sect is not a small family, and anything that can be solved with money is nothing.

Seeing that Master Kakushu's expression relaxed and he was about to agree to Yiyin's conditions, a senior nun from the Enryaku Temple Order in the hall became anxious.

She stepped out and put her hands together and said.

"Master, wait a minute."

Yiyin and Master Jueshu looked at the man together. Master Jueshu could not help but show anger in his eyes and scolded.

"Be brave, I'm talking to Jinduodian, how dare you come out and make noise!"

Yiyin watched with cold eyes, not expecting Master Jueshu to be so rude.

Little did he know that it was the high-ranking nun in front of him who took money from the Asai family and encouraged the religious group to send troops while Master Jueshu was away, which led to this disaster.

The reason why this person is anxious is because she knows very well that if the compensation is finalized, it will be her and the faction she belongs to who will pay. They caused this disaster, and of course they have to pay the price.

If it were ten thousand or twenty thousand guan, she would bear it without any hesitation, but that was a full 50,000 guan!

Fifty thousand guan may not be a particularly big number for Enryakuji Temple, but for her faction, it is a crippling number.

Especially because of her, this kind of money-losing incident happened. How can she gain a foothold in the faction in the future?

Spreading faith may be the second most expensive thing in the world, second only to fighting. There are few people in the world who care more about money than nuns.

For the sake of their faith, the Nanman Sect has traveled thousands of miles to bring goods, which are half sold and half given away. The nuns of the Yixiang Sect are stationed in the village, accompanying the villagers to cultivate the fields and spread their faith.

Throwing out 50,000 guan at once would make the entire faction hate this nun to death, so she would ignore it and rush out to stop him.

At this point, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak.

"Tsudaden said well that the samurai sects do not interfere with each other, so when the Oda family went to Luo, why did the army fly the Nichiren sect's Buddhist flag?

It was His Highness Oda who intervened in the sect's affairs in the first place, and it was not our Tiantai Sect who was provoking quarrels and causing trouble, so I would like to ask for Tsuta-den's warning."

Master Jueshu's expression froze. Even though she had been worshiping the Buddha for many years, she was still unable to restrain her anger at this moment.

Yiyin had already sneered and asked the man.

"May I ask what the name of this master is? What is his role in Enryaku Temple?"

The man was riding a tiger and could not get off, so he bowed and replied.

"The poor nun has awakened, Jingguangyuan presides over it."

Yiyin nodded. It turned out that this nun had a good background. No wonder she dared to speak arrogantly and embarrass Master Jueshu in public.

Enryaku-ji Temple is a temple built by Master Saicho, and Joko-in Temple is Saicho's temple. This enlightened nun guards the door of the founder of Enryaku-ji Temple, so her status is naturally not low.

But Yiyin will not coddle her. The Tiantai Sect must be subdued. This is the prerequisite for signing the armistice agreement.

Not to mention the confrontation between the three armies of Oda Asai and Asakura, Master Yama's attack on Sakamoto Castle must be explained, otherwise it will not be over.

Oda Nobunaga was angry at his family's loss, while Yoshigami wanted to maintain the dignity of the samurai family.

The power of monastic sects has always been a stubborn problem that has troubled the island country’s successive regimes.

What is the most important thing to maintain a political power? It is finance. If any political power has no money, just say hello!

Most of the financial expenditures of ancient regimes were military expenditures. The fundamental way to maintain political power was to maintain violent institutions, that is, to raise soldiers. If you can't raise soldiers, what's the point of talking about political power?

The monastery sect is a vampire that does not pay taxes. The nuns also like to secretly accept offerings from believers in order to gain more land.

The island country is so small, and there is only so much land that can be farmed. If the nuns take it away, there will naturally be fewer Ji warriors. This is a zero-sum game of one and the other, full of contradictions.

Both the emperor's court and the samurai shogunate wanted to restrict temple sects, but in this desperate island country, faith could not be stopped.

The lower-class untouchables are meant to suffer a lifetime of suffering as soon as they are born. If you don't give the untouchables some mental anesthesia, how can they be willing to be slaves to the upper class for the rest of their lives?

Therefore, the political powers of the past dynasties were very troubled by the sectarian forces of the temples, but they also had practical needs, so they could only use them and prevent them. The tacit understanding of the martial arts sects not to interfere with each other was also due to this complex psychology.

The Tiantai Sect is not a young upstart like the Yixiang Sect. The Enryaku Temple, which has lasted for eight hundred years, naturally understands the rules. If you break the rules, you should apologize and apologize so that everyone can step down.

Yiyin came here this time to deliver a ladder to the Tiantai Sect so that Master Jueshu could borrow the donkey from Poxia.

But this enlightened nun really didn't know how to praise her, and acted like a scoundrel who violated the rules of the Oda family first, making it impossible for everyone to step down.

Yiyin sneered.

"Enlightenment, this Dharma title is good, but this person is really not enlightened.

You said that the Oda army displayed the Buddhist flag of the Nichiren Sect, which was a provocation to the Tendai Sect. Then I joined the Shingon Sect and believe in the Shingon Sect, and sitting here, am I also desecrating the fundamental center of the Tendai Sect?

Master Jueshu, the Tiantai Sect is respected as the leader of Buddhist sects, but it is by no means the only one who respects me!

I think your temple has not yet reached a consensus, so I will excuse you now.

Today, I will rest all night at your temple. If your temple does not have a unified and clear attitude tomorrow, I will have to go down the mountain with regret."

After saying that, Yiyin walked straight out, unwilling to stay any longer.

Master Jueshu was a little surprised and panicked when he saw Yiyin leaving so quickly.

She quickly winked at a high-ranking nun nearby, and the man immediately chased after her.

"Please go slowly, Tsuta-don, I'll guide you to the guest room."

The nuns were surprised that Yoshigan left so decisively, and there was a commotion. The mediator who came to help rescue the siege was angry and walked away. How should the tens of thousands of Oda soldiers at the foot of Mount Hiei be dealt with?

Master Jueshu glanced at the pale-faced Suo Su and narrowed his eyes.

At this time, a burst of laughter suddenly erupted in the hall, and the loud sound startled everyone.

It turned out that Nobutora Takeda was laughing so hard that her tears overflowed. She wiped her tears with her sleeves and stood up.

"Then I'll excuse you now. I'm rushing down the mountain to write a letter to Kitahata Gujiao. I can't delay.

Hahaha, enlightenment, what kind of enlightenment, hahaha, the dog p wakes up!"

Takeda Nobutora turned around and left. She wanted to get closer to Shiba Yoshigan, but she was afraid that she would not be able to help leaking Takeda Rena's life experience, so she had better go down to peace early.

She ridiculed the nuns of the Tiantai Sect in public and was not afraid of anyone's retaliation.

The relationship between the Tendai Sect and the Takeda family is very deep, and Master Tenkai has long gone to Kai Country to preach.

Nowadays, Takeda Shingen has become a monk and is still serving as the chief official of the Tendai Sect. Although it is just a means for the Tendai Sect to win over the Takeda family and has no real power, his status is very noble.

With the strength of the Three Kingdoms under the Takeda family and a little disrespect from Nobutora Takeda, the nuns of the Tendai Sect can only suffer from group-selective tinnitus and cannot hear anything.

Afterwards, Takaoka Keito stood up, bowed and said.

"Then I'll take my leave. The general is still waiting for my reply at Nijo Castle."

Ashikaga Yoshiaki's olive branch to Shiba Yoshigan was declined. Takaoka Keitomo had to rush back immediately to inform the general that as for the internal conflicts within the Tendai Sect, she had no interest in getting involved.

Seeing the people from the Wu family leaving one by one, Master Jueshu's face was as dark as water, and he plucked the beads in his hand faster and faster.

The awakening man who had caused the trouble clasped his hands together, lowered his head and said nothing. The nuns were whispering to each other, and the buzzing sound became more and more noisy.

In the end, Master Jueshu slammed his rosary beads on the ground. The nuns were shocked and looked at this master with profound self-cultivation.

"Noisy!"

Produced in Tianzhu, the rosary beads made of sandalwood and red sandalwood were extremely valuable. Master Jueshu smashed them with hatred, shattering the string and scattering them all over the ground.

A red sandalwood Buddha bead rolled under Suo Wu's knees and caught her eyes. She sighed helplessly, as if she had understood her fate.
