Chapter 609 [Tokugawa Shogunate, Internal Chaos] Nine
When Mu Linfeng saw that Tokugawa Ie had not mentioned anything about the survival of the Tokugawa family, Mu Linfeng immediately slapped the table and stood up, saying angrily: "I came all the way to Japan for my husband. Is it because of this?"
If you don’t say anything to me, then I’ll say goodbye. If you want to leave, come with me. If you don’t want to, just stay in Japan!"
After Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he was about to leave. Tokugawa Jiehui quickly stepped forward and hugged Mu Linfeng from behind, saying: "Husband, don't be angry, Jiahui will explain everything to you now!"
Although Rika Sakurai and Sora Aoi didn't understand what Mu Linfeng and Tokugawa Ie were talking about, it was the first time they saw Mu Linfeng so angry, and they were really shocked.
Mu Linfeng still did not turn his head or speak, but he saw Tokugawa Ie hugging Mu Linfeng and continued: "In fact, half of the troops of our Tokugawa shogunate are not in the hands of our Tokugawa family, but in the hands of the Tagawa family.
And more than half of the Tagawa family's military strength is in the hands of Tagawa Yujiro, which is why my brother married Miko to you, and why he didn't catch Kanon after knowing that he was colluding with Tagawa Yujiro!"
Mu Linfeng had already guessed most of what Tokugawa Ie said. He knew that Tokugawa Iemitsu must have some scruples if he didn't deal with Tagawa Yujiro, but he didn't expect that guy actually held half of the military power. No wonder he was so arrogant.
But why did the Tokugawa family's military power decline?
Mu Linfeng then slowly turned around, held Tokugawa Ie's hand and said: "Your brother has never told this matter. Firstly, he was worried that his husband would join forces with the Tagawa family, and secondly, he was exposing himself to a family scandal.
!" After saying that, he held Tokugawa Ie's hand and kissed it, and then said: "Ie, you were born into the Tokugawa family, and your husband forced you to say it. You won't blame your husband, right?"
At this time, Tokugawa Jiahui snuggled into Mu Linfeng's arms and said softly: "Jiahui has been your husband for a long time. He is a member of your Mu family in life and death. Naturally, everything will be based on your husband. Before, it was because...
…because……"
Mu Linfeng quickly stretched out his fingers to block Tokugawa Ie's mouth, and said softly: "I understand, husband, after all, you are also a member of the Tokugawa family!"
Mu Linfeng and Tokugawa Ie hugged each other for a long time, only shaking their bodies slightly. Neither of them spoke. Sakurai Rika and Aoi Sora looked at each other with envy and jealousy, but they still bowed their heads and stood aside.
Mu Linfeng hugged Tokugawa Ie, but she was thinking in her heart: "Tokugawa Iemitsu is worried that I will join forces with Tagawa Yujiro. From Tagawa Yujiro's attitude towards me, it can be seen that I and that guy are not the same people anymore. I am wholeheartedly here."
Help you, you are so defensive about me..."
Mu Linfeng thought of this, and then thought again, it turned out that Tokugawa Iemitsu said that Tagawa Miko was begging for Tagawa Yujiro, which seemed not entirely true, but Tagawa Miko did indeed beg for mercy, and Tokugawa Iemitsu was just looking for an excuse. No wonder Tagawa Yujiro was against Tagawa Miko.
Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't seem to be afraid. It turned out that there was such a layer in it.
Mu Linfeng then remembered that the previous conversation between Tokugawa Iemitsu and Tagawa Yujiro mentioned the patriarch of the Tagawa family and a person named Jade Concubine, and quickly asked Tokugawa Ie.
Only then did Tokugawa Ie tell Mu Linfeng that the patriarch of the Tagawa family was Tagawa Yujiro and Tagawa Miko's eldest brother, Tagawa Yutaro, and the Jade Concubine was the wife of Tagawa Yutaro, whose full name was Maple Luo Jade Concubine, and the power of the Tagawa family seemed to be in
Tagawa Yutaro
In his hands, Taro Tagawa has always been in poor health, so the power gradually fell into the hands of Concubine Feng Luoyu. However, Yutaro Tagawa seemed to be uneasy about his wife, so he still handed over most of the military power to his younger brother Tagawa.
Yujiro.
Although Tagawa Yujiro is arrogant, he has no respect for his eldest brother. As long as it is his eldest brother, he will listen. However, he seems to be inseparable from his sister-in-law, and for some unknown reason, Concubine Maple Luo Jade has never been able to give birth to Tagawa Yutaro.
The fact that he is a man and a woman is rumored to be a problem of Yutaro Tagawa himself, saying that it is not a matter of male and female at all.
When Mu Linfeng heard this, his heart trembled, and he said to himself: "Damn, it's Zhu Yousong again!" Thinking of this, I really missed Zhong Nanping.
Hearing Tokugawa Ie's introduction, Mu Lin was almost in the limelight. Tokugawa Ie probably only mentioned a little bit about the internal problems of the Tokugawa family. Moreover, Tokugawa Ie has not been in Japan for so long.
There are still many things I don’t know, and just what Tokugawa Ie said just shows how chaotic the Tokugawa family is.
Only then did Mu Linfeng begin to understand why he had given so many firearms to the Tokugawa family, but they still were unable to kill Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It turned out that the reason was not the firearms, but the internal affairs of the Tokugawa family.
The Tokugawa family has been divided, with one Tokugawa Ietaka and the other Tagawa Yujiro. The Tagawa family seems to be unstoppable, and the dispute between uncle and sister-in-law also seems to be affecting the Tagawa family.
These problems are really intertwined. According to Tokugawa Ie, these problems have existed for several years. Mu Linfeng even believed that Tokugawa Iemitsu was not Tokugawa Ieyasu after all. If Tokugawa Ieyasu was here, the Tokugawa family would not be like this.
.
It seems that solving the Tokugawa family's problems will not happen overnight. No wonder Tokugawa Iemitsu has never mentioned dealing with Westerners. These things have always been peaceful. After Tokugawa Iemitsu's rebellious intentions were exposed,
All these seemingly peaceful things have been brought to the surface, and now it is imminent.
But procrastinating like this is not an option. Mu Linfeng can not care about the life and death of the Tokugawa family, but since he has agreed to come to help the Tokugawa family, he cannot just go back without accomplishing anything. Besides, Mu Linfeng has already brought all the Westerners together.
Offended.
Mu Linfeng secretly thought that this matter seemed to have to start from the Tagawa family. What Tokugawa Iemitsu was most worried about was that he would join forces with Tagawa Yujiro, and Concubine Feng Luoyu seemed to obey Tokugawa Iemitsu. It seemed that this matter
The matter must be started from the side of Concubine Fengluo.
Mu Linfeng thought that if he and Concubine Maple Luo Jade reached a consensus, it would be better to dispel Tokugawa Iemitsu's doubts. He would take the opportunity to help Concubine Maple Luo Jade seize the military power of Tagawa Yujiro, and even help Tokugawa Iemitsu seize Maple Luo Jade.
The fastest solution is for the concubine and Yujiro Tagawa to hand over all their military power to Tokugawa Iemitsu.
Mu Linfeng then asked for some information about Maple Luo Jade Concubine, only to learn that Maple Luo Jade Concubine and Tagawa Yutaro were an old couple. Tagawa Yujiro was more than twenty years older than Maple Luo Jade Concubine. Now Maple Luo Jade Concubine is only two years old.
More than ten years old.
Mu Linfeng's heart moved slightly when he heard the words, and he said to himself: "I, Mu Linfeng, still have some abilities when it comes to young women. If I take care of Concubine Fengluo, then the power of the Taguan family will appear to be in the hands of Concubine Fengluo, but in fact it will be in the hands of Concubine Fengluo."
If I seize the military power of Yujiro Tagawa and sideline Yutaro Tagawa at that time, wouldn’t I control half of the Tokugawa family’s troops?”
Mu Linfeng thought about it secretly. Naturally, he did not tell Tokugawa Ie what he thought. In his heart, he was thinking about what the Maple Luo Jade Concubine would look like when she fell to the ground. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it shouldn't be too ugly, otherwise Tagawa Yutaro would also be the same.
I won't marry her who is more than 20 years younger than me.
For some reason, when Mu Linfeng was thinking about how to attack Concubine Fengluo, the image of Tokugawa Jiahezi suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but shudder.
