Yoshigan was the widow of Ashikaga Yoshiteru. He selected the successor of Ashikaga Yoshiteru for the sacrificial incense, and then sealed a piece of land so that Ashikaga Yoshiteru could continue his orthodoxy and be worthy of the deceased Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
As for where to choose this territory and how to monitor and control the Ashikaga Yoshi clan and their descendants, outsiders have no control over it.
The most amazing thing is the phrase "Spo's relatives".
The Shiba family is a relative of Ashikaga, and the Ashikaga shoguns rule the world. The Shiba family belongs to the Ashikaga clan and maintains the shogunate system.
Now the Ashikaga Shogunate is despised by heaven, and all the senior officials in Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine were blown up by thunder. The Shiba family inherits the destiny of heaven, and the saint carries the world on his shoulders. This is the will of heaven.
From a dialectical perspective, since I am your kin, then you are also my kin, and there is nothing wrong with that.
The Ashikaga remnant lineage, with the Ashikaga Miao characters removed, will be integrated into the new samurai regime as Shiba kinsmen, while the new samurai regime is dominated by the Shiba Kami group.
Yiyin is not a female ruler in a world where women are respected. He is a man who has created at least thirteen families of Shiba gods just by spreading his seeds, and the number far exceeds the output of female rulers.
There are sufficient senior officials in the new samurai regime with the Shiba Goddess as the core. The status of the Shiba clan cannot help the Ashikaga family who have lost the Ashikaga Miao name. It is inevitable that they will be excluded from the circle of power.
The descendants of Ashikaga Yoshiji will only gradually become mediocre general samurai families and disappear into the long river of history unknowingly.
With a few seemingly simple words, Kosaka Masanobu clearly arranged the two Ashikaga families, the Ashikaga shogun and the Kanto shogun, which made Yoshigan have to take a high look.
This mature lady was able to prosper under Takeda Shingen. Sure enough, she didn't just rely on her good looks, she was really ruthless.
With such talent, it is a pity that she has been wasting her time raising children these years.
Yiyin thought for a while and said.
"The Grand Council is already evaluating the current situation in Kyoto after the death of the top shogunate. The reorganization of the Kyoto shogunate and the Kanto Palace is imperative.
Ashikaga Yoshiji wrote to me privately, so I naturally have to consider it carefully, but the general direction still has to be decided by the Grand Council, as this is in line with the spirit of co-governance of the samurai family."
Kosaka Masanobu came up with a good idea for Yoshigan, but Yoshigan, a saint who wanted to be a male cousin and wanted to build a memorial arch, naturally couldn't arrange the Ashikaga Yoshiji nakedly, and had to go through procedures.
The Grand Council faces the world, and the united front represents the public opinion of the martial arts family in the world. Having this fig leaf in front of us can not only reduce the pressure of public opinion, but also make Yiyin's character noble and selfless.
As for the Furukawa Territory, Yiyin still couldn't decide who should be responsible for it, so he put it aside for the time being.

There are so many things happening in Kinki this winter.
Ashikaga Shogun and a group of senior shogunate officials were punished by heaven when they were worshiping at Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine, and they were all hacked to pieces.
Their deaths left the Kyoto shogunate without a leader, and the middle and lower-level shogunate and the Ashikaga Hui people united to plead with the sage to come forward to take charge.
After repeatedly declining, Yoshigan saw that the political situation in Kinki was unstable and could not bear the suffering of the people in Kinki from the war anymore, so he had no choice but to accept the entreaties of the concubines of the Kyoto shogunate and step in to take charge of the overall situation.
As a result, the reorganization of the Kyoto shogunate and the Kanto court was put on the agenda and progressed rapidly.
The middle-level officials of the shogunate and powerful samurai from various parts of Kinki applied to become a united front group, joining the circle of the Grand Council to preserve their status.
The grassroots members of the shogunate and the Ashikama Hui also received a large gift package from the Shiba family, were recognized as Shiba martyrs, and continued to enjoy the annual six-stone donation from Shiba Welfare.
The Shiba selection also opened up a special channel for them. As long as they are talented people in the shogunate, they can pass the Shiba selection examination, officially obtain the Shiba establishment, and become a part of the new system.
After buying off the middle and lower levels of the shogunate, the Kanto shogunate also announced that it would merge with the Kyoto shogunate to become the provisional shogunate, which would govern the five major shogunate groups and manage the daily affairs of the world.
The nominal highest authority of the Provisional Shogunate was the Great Council, which was modeled on the old practice of the imperial family system. United frontmen from all over the country attended the meeting, sat down to discuss ideas, and jointly governed the world.
The grand council system has also been officially rolled out to martial artists all over the world. All powerful martial artists from all over the world can apply to join the United Front, participate in the legislation of the provisional shogunate, discuss politics, and supervise related political affairs.
At this time when everything is prosperous and about to enter a new era, all the Ji warriors who have surrendered to the Shiba family feel very excited.
Everyone is very clear that the big review is just a fig leaf in front of the stage, and the real person controlling the situation behind the scenes is still the sage of the Spo family.
However, the saint is willing to follow the traditional principles of the martial arts family and assume this posture of co-governing with the martial arts families of the world. This has made the martial arts families of the world who have been in chaos for a hundred years very satisfied and willing to rely on him.
The vested interests who closely follow the Shiba family are looking forward to the day when the saint will go one step further, open the gate, and the temporary shogunate will become Shiba's world.

At the end of winter and the beginning of spring, the weather gets warmer, but some people's hearts feel increasingly cold.
Himeji Castle, residence hall.
Hideyoshi Ichijo looked at the new shoot sprouting under the garden tree and couldn't help but sigh.
A divine punishment at Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine disrupted all her plans.
I originally thought that Ashikaga Yoshiaki and the greedy upper echelons of the shogunate would be enough to cause enough trouble to the benevolent Yoshigan Shiba and buy him more time.
But the reality was beyond everyone's expectation.
Without paying any political price, Yoshihiro Saba eliminated the top officials of the shogunate. The expected good things such as Saba's bloodbath in Kyoto and the collapse of the saint's personality did not happen at all.
With the disappearance of the top officials of the shogunate, the resistance to reform within Saba became weaker and weaker. Under the strong will of Saba Yoshigan, all opponents continued to give in.
The establishment of the provisional shogunate and the expansion of the Great Council indicate that Yoshihiro Shiba has gradually approached his political goal and is about to turn the loose alliance of the Shiba samurai family into a real new samurai regime.
Behind her, Hideyoshi Kuroda said.
"Why do you sigh, my lord?
Under the supervision of Lord Hideuchi Ichijo, all the Chosogabe family has returned to the Tosa family and returned the ancestral property of the Ichijo family. Your expedition to the Four Kingdoms has been successful."
Ichijo Hideyoshi looked at the winter scenery in the garden. Although there were some signs of spring, it was still lonely and gloomy, which made people unhappy. He snorted coldly.
"Asking even though you know it.
The Grand Council of the Provisional Shogunate in Kyoto has announced to the public that it has accepted the application of the Kanto General Ashikaga Yoshiki and allowed her to become the adopted daughter of the former general Ashikaga Yoshiteru and inherit the orthodoxy.
After Ashikaga Yoshiji succeeded the clan, the Kamakura Ashikaga family was officially extinct, and from then on there was no longer a Kanto shogun in the world.
However, Ashikaga Yoshiji became the adopted daughter of Ashikaga Yoshiteru, but had no intention of inheriting the Ashikaga Shogun family. He also announced to the public that he would give up the Ashikaga Miao name and move to another residence.
