Chapter 1818 Naoyoshi Hanzawa’s death-free gold medal
There are no princes or ministers in the island country. It is rather a myth that hereditary and irreplaceable nobles seize power, often relying on the name of guardians, that is, the hindsight system, which empties the supreme ruler.
Guan Bai takes over the emperor, the shogun takes over the court, and the samurai lord takes over the shogun. This is the so-called tradition of the island country.
Among ordinary martial arts families, there is also a saying of hindsight. The heirs entrusted with the family property have great rights, and close relatives who are not flesh and blood should not be trusted easily.
It is actually a bit inappropriate for Yuigahama Yui to find an outsider like Hanzawa Naoyoshi to be the successor to her daughter. In theory, she should ask her own elders.
However, the Yuigahama family were originally just Iga barbarians with little knowledge of the samurai family, so it was understandable to act in such a chaotic manner, but it was not offensive at all.
Yui Hama has a weak temperament, and Naoyoshi Hansawa has a sincere relationship with her. They are close friends with each other, and there is no problem in taking care of her daughter for her.
But there are two weird things about this.
First, Yuigahama Yui herself was in her prime of life and was not yet dead, so it was not in line with common sense to entrust her to his heirs like this.
Secondly, Hanzawa Naoyi has been gone for several years, and his life and death are uncertain. Now the entrustment seems to be a useless and meaningless task.
But seeing Yuigahama Yui's persistence, Hanzawa Naoyoshi finally nodded helplessly.
"Okay, let me be the person behind Xiaotuanzi. You can get up first."
Yuigahama Yui smiled, pulled Xiaoduanzi to her side, looked into the child's eyes seriously, and said.
"Tuanzi, from today onwards, Hanzehime will be your successor. You must respect her and protect her, do you understand?"
Hanze Naoyoshi wanted to laugh when he heard this.
It's just respect, what does protection mean? Do you still need the protection of a three-year-old child?
Yuigahama Yui is really in a mess. She probably doesn't understand what it means to be a behind-the-scenes person. If she only knows a little about it, she just imitates other martial arts and messes around.
Xiaotuanzi seemed a little scared when he saw his mother's serious expression. Then he looked at Hanzawa Naoyoshi and stretched out his hand as if to help.
"Auntie! Auntie!"
This time, Yuigahama Yui did not let her child run wild, but forcibly pulled her and bowed deeply to Hanzawa Naoyoshi.
Hanzawa Naoyoshi shook his head.
"Okay, okay, we are not from a high-ranking family, so we don't need to go through all the red tape, we just have to know what's going on.
Come, Tuanzi, give me a hug."
The little dumpling was a little hurt by his mother's strong grasp, so he ran to Hanzawa Naoyi's side again.
Yuigahama Yui looked at Hanzawa Naoyoshi and said seriously.
"You have to remember that the name of the dumpling after Yuanfu is Yoshinao. You must remember it."
Hanzawa Naoyi was stunned and laughed out loud.
"Yoshinao? Are you trying to use my name in reverse? You can imagine that.
How old is your child? Have you already considered a Yuanfu name? Isn’t it too early?”
Yuigahama Yui stared into Hanzawa Naoyoshi's eyes and repeated seriously.
"The original name of the dumpling is Yuigahama Yoshinao. You must remember it. You must remember it."
Hanzawa Naoyi shook his head helplessly.
"Yes, yes, you are her mother, you have the final say, I will just remember it."
In fact, this was a misunderstanding by Hanzawa Naoyoshi. The name Yoshihiro was not taken from her.
It was the name that the saint decided on when he came to visit Yuigahama Yui last year and claimed the little dumpling. It can be said to be the name of recognizing the ancestor and returning to the clan.
The word "righteousness" is the common character of the Sibo family, and it comes from the common character meaning of Sibo Yiyin.
Yuigahama Yoshinao is the daughter of Yoshigan Shiba, a descendant of the saint. Only Yuigahama Yui and Yoshigan Shiba know this name.
And now, there is one more person, and that is Yuigahama Yoshinao's later acquaintance, Hanzawa Naoyoshi.
Yuigahama Yui's hands clenched into fists and trembled slightly. She had always followed the rules and acted honestly.
This time, Naoyoshi Hanzawa was rashly asked to act as Xiaotuanzi's backstory, and he was a little scared to reveal Xiaotuanzi's real name.
Is it right for me to do this? Can I save Naoyoshi Hanzawa's life by doing this?
Yuigahama Yui was not sure, but she tried her best to protect her best friend and gave her an amulet belonging to the Shiba Goddess.
The saints have stepped onto the Shinto path, and the descendants of Swami have stepped onto the stage of history. This is an unstoppable trend.
The world is unified, and Sibo's divine power is still in the future. But it can only be said that now, the descendants of Sibo have the privilege of being superior to others within the sphere of influence of the Sibo family.
Hanzawa Naoyoshi complained about his low status. Going to Kanto was like a mantis trying to use his arm as a cart, and ants were shaking the tree. Even if he succeeded, the end would be unpredictable.
But it would be different if she was not an ordinary Shiba Kahime samurai with a low status, but a descendant of Yuigahama Yoshinao, one of the descendants of the saint.
With this level of identity, even if Yoshigami Shiba wants to sacrifice Hanzawa Naoyoshi and ease the overall situation, he still has to consider his daughter's future.
The Yuigahama family is already weak, and Xiaotuanzi's biological mother is a loser. If the descendants of this line of gods are killed again, how will Yuigahama Yoshinao survive in the turbulent politics of the samurai family in the future?
If Yoshigan Shiba abandons Naoyoshi Hanzawa, he will completely destroy the reputation of the Yuigahama line of divine descendants.
The martial arts families in the world will know that there are three, six or nine levels of gods, and they can also pick weaklings, follow the trend, and stand in line to bully.
The atmosphere of unity among the gods that Shiba Yiyin tried so hard to create will be even more difficult to achieve.
Yuigahama Yui's mind may not be so far-reaching, but her intuition tells her that the saint cares about Xiaoduanzi and will never sacrifice Xiaoduanzi's followers easily.
Understanding this is enough.
Hanzawa Naoyi didn't know that the doormat she kindly helped would bring huge rewards to her. Without her knowledge, she had already received a death-free medal.
For a saint, all martial arts families in the world can be sacrificed, but only with the unity of the descendants of Shiba, no risk can be taken.
Weakness has become the strongest talisman of Yuigahama's lineage, and it is also Hanzawa Naoyi's biggest support during this trip.
But at this time, no one thought that the Kanto issue would involve such big trouble.
Hansawa Naoyoshi thought he was going to investigate Takata Harano's problem, Takada Harano thought he was chasing away wolves and devouring tigers, and Ii Naomasa thought he was suppressing the local centralization center.
But in the end, contradictions and pressures from all aspects pile up, which will eventually detonate the entire Kanto, causing Yiyin to miss its first opportunity to unify the world.
After talking about what they saw later, Yuigahama Yui and Hanzawa Naoyoshi fell into silence for a while.
After a while, Yuigahama Yui asked.
"When are you going to leave?"
Hanzawa Naoyoshi replied.
“Originally I wanted to wait until the beginning of spring, wait for the Hokuriku Expressway to melt into snow, and then depart from Tsuruga Port and go directly to Naoetsu.
But now, I have some other ideas, and I may start early, find a ship to sail eastward in Ise Country, and take the Tokaido Road into Kanhachishu."
Yuigahama Yui nodded and didn't ask any more questions. She didn't know what Ii Naomasa and Hanzawa Naoyoshi were doing, and she didn't want to know too much.
Hanzawa Naoyi didn't explain anything more, because it was too complicated to explain, and there was no need to involve Yuigahama Yui.
This year, the connection between Naomasa Ii and Naoyoshi Hansawa has never been broken.
Ii Naomasa, who followed Yoshigan to Kanto, has been sending new information to Hanzawa Naoyoshi and acting as a frontline for Hanzawa Naoyoshi.
Originally, Hanzawa Naoyoshi wanted to start with Naoetsu and find out some clues about Takada Haruno in Kanto.
Sakai Port and Naoetsu are the two ends of the Hokurikudo Trade Road, and they are also the largest distribution bulk markets on both sides of the Hokurikudo Trade Road in Kinki and Kanto.
Sakai Port is in the hands of Takada Harano. The last time Hansawa Naoyi went to investigate, he was forcibly interrupted before he could get Takata Harano's trump card.
Therefore, the former Hanzawa Naoyoshi wanted to start over from Naoetsu and try to find Takada Yono's partner in Kanto.
Through the Kanto account transactions, the financial problems of Takada Harno were investigated from a side perspective, and then these evidences were summarized and handed over to Ii Naomasa, who was held accountable by the Tongxin Secretariat.
In fact, Ii Naomasa never thought about completely overthrowing Takada Harano, because this is unrealistic.
The Takada sisters are the only descendants of the Shiba family. They have a close relationship with the saint and are trusted far more than any other person. Takada Haruno herself is also loyal to the saint.
It's just an economic issue, so it's impossible to remove Takada Harano from power.
Even if she made mistakes or omissions, it would be impossible for the saint to deal with her harshly just because she had worked so hard to make money for the saint over the years.
Making money is not an easy task. Doing business means buying high and selling low to earn the difference. Takada Yono started from scratch and built today's huge foundation. It is impossible to do it cleanly.
The saint also understood this in his heart.
Ii Naomasa is not asking the saint to punish Takada Haruno severely, but to tell the saint through evidence that Takada Haruno's sole control is not good for the Shiba family.
The way to get a large sum of money in a short period of time is to catch all the money, and there are many hidden dangers.
Takada Yono has been monopolizing business for a long time. Not to mention the clean government, even the Central Secretariat cannot get her true accounts. The audit and supervision related to the central department are in name only.
Naomasa Ii is in charge of central supervision and naturally cannot stand this.
The Sibo food stamp financial system has developed into a behemoth, but the Tongxin Secretariat, which represents the central management agency of Sibo, is unable to participate in supervision and management.
It is equivalent to the fact that the economic power and financial tools of the Shiba family are not under the control of the Tongxin Secretariat. This is unacceptable to Naomasa Ii.
The pen-tou Kamao clan of Tongxinzhong also tacitly supported Ii Naomasa's actions. Through Hanzawa Naoyoshi's good sword, he found evidence of Takada Haruno's crime and appealed to the saint to redistribute power.
What the Tongxin Secretariat needs is to intervene in the Shiba food stamp financial system, and Takada Yono regards this system as his own taboo. The focus of the secret war between the two parties is on Hanzawa Naoyoshi.
This is the real reason why Hanzawa Naoyi, as a new Hime Samurai in Shiba's establishment, was favored by Naomasa Ii and valued by Yono Takada.
The Tongxin Secretariat followed the saint's actions in Kanto this year, allowing Hanzawa Naoyoshi to get more first-hand information, which overturned many of Banzawa Naoyoshi's previous judgments.
Naoetsu may not be a close collaborator of Takada Harano, and the relationship between Sakai Port and Naoetsu may only be business-related.
Naoetsu was controlled by the Echigo dual-headed political system, with the Shiba family and the Uesugi family each accounting for half.
Judging from the latest news, the cooperation between the two adherents at the Zhijiang Jinguan Office is not harmonious, and there are many discords.
Okuma Chaohide of the Kanto Shrine Office has an old grudge with the Uesugi family. Naoe Keetsuna, a pro-Shiba faction of the Uesugi family, has also been under scrutiny and supervision from within the Uesugi family.
It can be said that these two people are being stared at by countless pairs of eyes. It doesn't matter if they want to do something in private, but Takada Haruno is very generous in his tricks, and it is impossible to make a small fuss.
Big business means big trouble, and Okuma Chaohide and Naoe Keitsuna dare not touch it.
Furthermore, there are also members of the Integrity Committee stationed in the Kanto Service Office in Naoetsu, with Hasegawa Nagatsuna in charge of writing.
Hasegawa Nagatsuna was recommended by Ozo Changan. The two were from the same hometown and came from the Kinki Yamato Kingdom.
In other words, Hasegawa Nagatsuna belonged to the Kinki sect who followed the sage to Kanto. The Kinki sect had an estranged relationship with the local natives of Kanto and could not pee in the same pot.
Moreover, Da Zang Changan and Da Xiong Chao Xiu were still fighting openly and covertly over the issue of the right to exercise control. In the end Da Xiong Chao Xiu won, Da Zang Chang An was transferred by the saint to form the Wu Family Principles Promotion Association.
Hasegawa Nagatsuna's position as the Integrity Writer was used by the sage to appease the Kinki sect of the Dazo Changan clan.
Therefore, Hasegawa Nagatsuna always kept an eye on the inside and outside of the shrine, and he was a Kinki sect himself, so he had an estranged relationship with Naoe Keizuna and Ohkuma Tohide.
If the Kanto people dare to play a big game in Naoetsu, Hasegawa Nagatsuna will definitely inform Ozo Changan. This is the best opportunity for the Kinki faction to backhand and suppress the Kanto faction.
After sorting out these relationships, Hanzawa Naoyoshi judged that there could not be a major collaborator of Takada Harano on Naoetsu's side. There were too many eyes and constraints there, and it was easy for things to go wrong.
Even if someone in Naoetsu is dragged into the water, it won't be those at the top.
Even if the little shrimps below are involved, they cannot control the overall situation. Takada Yono must have a close collaborator in Kanto, a high-level person who can communicate with all parties and is responsible for the entire situation.
But if it’s not Naoetsu, then who is qualified to cooperate with a big boss like Takada Yono?
Hanzawa Naoyi's thoughts began to turn to the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association.
She didn't think that Dazang Chang'an would dare to do anything messy without hiding it from the saint. A Kinki accomplice who had no roots in Kanto would die miserably if he messed up.
The Samurai Giri Promotion Association emerged very late. It is a new upstart in Kanto in recent years. The person in charge, Ozo Changan, is also an aide sent by the Iga Maeda family to Kanto to serve the saint, and has insufficient control.
Ozo Changan is very capable, but the Kinki sect is a minority in Kanto. She cannot completely control the huge system of the Samurai Giri Promotion Association, and must give up some power to the Kanto people.
The Naoe Jinkan Office was built on the basis of Echigo's dual-headed politics, with the Shiba family and the Uesugi family cooperating, and it was a strong supervision and management.
However, the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association cannot provide strong supervision, and a few high-level officials from the Kinki faction cannot supervise every detail.
The organization of the Wu Jiayi Li Promotion Association is very complicated, including supervision by the Wushu Association, welfare institutions, lending institutions, and various relationships.
It is entirely possible that the high-level officials in the Kanto area could hide it from the eyes of Dazang Changan and work out some things in private.
Hanzawa Naoyoshi finally decided to change his first destination from Naoetsu to Kanhachishu.
She will make the Kanbazhou area, where the main economic activities of the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association are located, the first stop of her secret investigation.
