Chapter 905: There Are Willing

So when they listened, the head of the Takayama clan took the lead and said: "My lord, hundreds of years ago, the emperor issued a ban on meat, meat is a **** thing, how can we, as samurai, disobey the emperor's order?" Therefore, the subordinates thought that the meat eating was not the work of samurai such as us, so they also asked the lord to take back the order. ”

Looking at the clan chief, the clan didn't expect that the first person to stand up against him was his own brother, and he couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, but he would not change his original intention because of his opposition, so when the clan chief finished speaking, he only listened to the clan said: "The emperor's order? Okay, then let me ask you, a few months ago, the emperor sent people from the chrysanthemum pavilion to come here and ask for 3,000 kan of money, 100 pieces of cloth and silk, and 50 good horses, what did you say at that time? ”

This kind of thing is just a trivial matter for the clan, since the Takayama clan set up a sparrow house, no one in the world knows that the Takayama family is rich, and it is impossible for the emperor not to know today, plus the relationship between the princess and the Takayama clan is still said in the past, so from a few years ago, the emperor will send envoys to come to this two or three times a year, and he has nothing else to do with the Takayama clan, just want to get some money from the Takayama family to spend, and at the beginning because the Takayama family has some wealth every year, for these small money, give it, The clan didn't take it too seriously, after all, it was able to have a good relationship with the emperor and the minister, and it was also a boost to the development of the family, at least when fighting with the enemy, the righteousness would always be on his side, but this year the Takayama family began to expand the army in an all-round way, even if a penny was broken in half, there was still a big funding gap, and at this time, the Kikutei sunny season came again, and the funds asked for were more than doubled than the original, which can't be blamed on the other party, after all, the Takayama family not only won Shinano, but now the power is in control of Kai. And these ministers all knew that Kai produced gold, so they thought that even if the amount of the other party's contribution was increased, the clan would agree.

But this time he was disappointed, the money didn't arrive, and he didn't even think about the silk horses or anything, and the reason why this happened. It is completely the result of the words of the clan chief, although the Takayama clan chief's identity is only an agricultural practice, but in the heart of the clan he is no more important than Maeda and other brave generals, Honda and other capable ministers, after all, in this era, there are really not many relatives. So he accepted the chief's suggestion and refused to donate.

Today, the other party actually brought out the emperor to suppress himself, so the clan immediately remembered this matter and used it to refute.

"This ......" Sure enough, the clan mentioned this matter. The clan chief was speechless, of course, the clan chief didn't regret it, after all, he also knew in his heart that the current emperor was just a symbolic existence, and he wanted to use the emperor to suppress his brother, so even if there was no previous incident, the brother would find enough reasons to refute himself, and what he said was just a role in throwing bricks and stones, and he saw that there were already other retainers who were eager to try. The Clan Chief decisively retracted his head and gave them the opportunity.

When he finished. I heard Hosokawa Fujitaka say: "Lord, meat is a **** thing, eating this thing is no different from eating feces, does the lord really want his subordinates to eat these things?" ”

"Haha, Fujitaka is of noble birth and doesn't seem to know about folk affairs. In this case, then I will give you an answer, meat is a thing that nourishes the body, and if Fujitaka has time, he can visit the folk sick. Look at what they eat, if there is not enough time, then I will tell you now, if you eat some meat after illness, then the recovery speed is much faster, and even many civilians who can't afford to buy it, eat meat after illness, in order to increase their physique, resist the pain, as for the **** thing, this is just an excuse to refuse the meat provided, it should not be true at all. ”

"Lord, my subordinates think that what Lord Hosokawa said is reasonable, since I learned that my lord eats meat, my subordinates have also tried, but after the beast meat is cooked, there is a fishy smell, not to mention swallowing, even if you don't want to look at it more, so it's not a **** thing?" Sanada Changhui opened his mouth and said, not to mention, he really tried it the day before yesterday, but he was fooling around behind others' backs, after all, he didn't want others to know that he ate animal meat, so after he caught a chicken, he just hurriedly plucked the feathers on his body, and then used a knife to unload it into eight pieces, and then threw it into the pot in one go, sprinkled two handfuls of salt, and began to cook, but after it was cooked, he looked into the pot and saw a piece of blood red, and there were a few pieces of meat with white bones on it that kept rolling in the water, Such a picture, how disgusting and disgusting, coupled with the strange smell coming from the pot, let alone eating, even looking at it feels disgusting.

Of course, he didn't plan to say this today, after all, although he didn't eat, he had the idea of eating, and I was afraid that this would also become a topic of ridicule for other retainers, but he didn't ask the lord about it, so he came to say it by example.

Although the other party is refuting himself, the clan is still very satisfied with Sanada Masaaki, at least the other party tried, although it ended in failure, but this alone proves that he attaches great importance to himself. And the clan also knows that if you really want to promote meat in an all-round way, then in addition to solving the deep-rooted understanding of the retainers and the people, the most important thing is to solve the taste problem, if this point cannot be solved, then let alone them, even if you will not touch it.

And since Sanada Masaki is showing up to say, then the clan also intends to use this to fight back, so he didn't say anything, but looked at Maeda Keiji, the last time he went to Mount Fuji, Maeda Keiji followed, the reason why the clan asked him to say, instead of the wind demon Kojiro, was completely because he left a very beautiful picture in the heart of the clan at that time, Maeda Keiji held a big leg of lamb in both hands, under the shade of the tree, gnawing desperately, his mouth, hands, and clothes were full of mutton fat......

"Keiji, you came to tell Sanada-sama that animal meat smells fishy?"

Keiji Maeda is a wonderful, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with eating meat or something, in his opinion, as long as the thing is delicious, it's okay, isn't it too tiring to care about so much, and Uncle Maeda is really not rich, he wants to eat fish, the problem is that there is no money to eat a fart, animal meat is good, delicious, and wine, and the most important thing is that he doesn't need money. If you don't eat this, I'm really sorry for my stomach. It's just that it's only limited to Mt. Fuji, and after I come back, I don't have such a mouthful.

And when the lord called the name, I saw Keiji Maeda say with an intoxicated face: "Sanada-sama, I didn't say you. If you can't get it, you can't get it, and you can't blame others for not making it delicious, you don't know, when I followed the lord to Mt. Fuji, I didn't eat these things, and the taste was not good, and it was full of hunger, and delicious, much better than those fish and shrimp that were not salty or light. Don't you know, if it wasn't for the lord at that time, I would have to eat a whole sheep, **** thing? That's all nonsense. ”

Speaking of this, I saw Maeda Keiji look at the clan again, and said: "My lord, if you can pass on the craftsmanship of this cuisine, then your subordinates will never eat those fish and shrimp in the future." Make sure to eat meat every day. ”

"Maeda-sama...... How do you ......" Sanada Masaaki saw that Keiji Maeda was not just talking, but full of expectations. It's starting to shake a bit, too.

After taking Maeda Keiji to finish speaking, for a while, the retainers really had nothing to say, and after seeing this, the clan said again: "Do you know that the battle of Genpei ended in the victory of my Genpei family?" ”

Everyone is thinking about eating meat. The lord suddenly said this coldly, and the retainers couldn't help but be stunned, but many retainers immediately leaned on the matter of the Yuanping War to eat meat, but they didn't find the point for a while.

Seeing that everyone was speechless, they only listened to the clan sect continue: "The reason why my Yuan family was able to achieve the final victory. It is inseparable from this carnivorous one. I'm afraid many of you don't know very well, so today I will continue this matter for you to understand, after the Heijia controlled the world, fully implemented the ban on meat issued by the emperor, and since then fish and shrimp have been one of the main supplementary foods, which has caused the Heike samurai to be weak, not only that, because they do not eat meat all year round, whether it is strength and height, and life expectancy has seriously declined, and then look at my source family, because the eastern country was not developed at that time, it was a bitter cold land, and the food could not keep up, so I had to eat animal meat, But this also made my source family samurai physically strong, it can be said that the reason why I was able to achieve the final victory, and my source family is inseparable from the consumption of meat, but after winning the world, in order to show the importance of the emperor finally had to abandon meat, after the ancestors abandoned meat, in order to avoid the phenomenon of using meat to enhance their physique like themselves, overthrowing the rule of the Heike family, only if everyone does not eat meat, then there is no need to worry about the other party's physique will surpass their own, and achieve the goal of overthrowing themselves. That's why the rumors that meat is **** continue to spread, in order to be my source family will always rule the world, today the emperor is weak, and his order does not leave the palace, as a descendant of the Genji, my clan believes that this moment is a good opportunity to correct the name of meat and restore meat, you only think that you will be ridiculed, but I can tell you now that those who use this to laugh at you are the most ridiculous, because their heads are full of rumors, and it is not a very ridiculous thing to use rumors to laugh at the facts? If your mind is swayed by these people, it can only prove one thing, your martial arts heart is not strong, and martial arts is to let me face up to my true heart. ”

After the clan finished speaking, the target kept glancing at the retainers, and it could be seen from their expressions that their resistance was greatly reduced. And the clan's words, can not be regarded as nonsense, in the previous life he was curious about the ancient Japanese did not eat meat, and really checked some information, the reason why the battle of Pingyuan was able to win, on the one hand, because the Hei family had been completely corrupted back then, there was no heart to fight, on the other hand, as the clan said, because the land of Kansai controlled by the Hei family was dry for many years, the military food was insufficient, and it did not eat meat, so it was impossible to send out a large army, and the Dongguo Genjia was indeed a meat-eater, why didn't he eat it later, The clan really didn't find out about this, and in the end he could only make it up, but the clan thought it was perfect.

And the retainers are now carefully understanding what the lord just said, even if Hosokawa Fujitaka is included, he only has a rough understanding of the Genhei battle back then, and the details are not very clear at all, he is not very clear about the famous family, not to mention the other retainers in the family, it can be said that what the clan says now, they don't think that the clan is deceiving them at all, this is the habitual thinking of all samurai, so that they are no longer so resistant to eating meat, After all, the whole Yuan family ate meat back then, how can I compare myself with others, everyone can eat it, is it that my identity is more noble than my ancestors?

But although it's a little accepted psychologically, the problem is that my mouth and stomach really can't accept it, Maeda Keiji is really a little unreliable, and the retainers present don't believe his words, so if the taste can't be solved, then these retainers are still impossible to accept.

"My lord, although we are willing to accept it, but the meat is really hard to swallow, this ......" Murai Sadakatsu said first after thinking about it carefully. As the head of the family's internal affairs, he also has some considerations, if the family's military strength can add meat, then the finances will be much more relaxed, after all, tens of thousands of people's food and grass is not a small amount of money, with this money, the family can do more things, but although he has not eaten, but after listening to Sanada Masahui's words, he can also imagine the taste, so he said this.

The clan clan didn't bother to say much, and clapped his hands directly, and the five roasted whole sheep that had been prepared a long time ago were carried in turn by the flag warriors outside the door, because the clan had long known that this thing would definitely be used today, so these five sheep had been roasted slowly on low heat, so when they were brought in, they were all steaming.

"Okay, if you don't have any evidence, you can taste it." After stabilizing the roast sheep, I only heard the clan say lightly.

"Haha, thank you lord, and please forgive me for being rude." As soon as the clan finished speaking, he saw Keiji Maeda rushing to the roast sheep and pulling out the knife inserted in it...... However, when he looked at it, he inserted it into the roast lamb again, and then took out the knife from his waist and slashed at the leg of the lamb. Yes, his purpose is that leg of mutton. And after him, Wind Demon Kojiro also took a knife and skimmed off a small piece of meat and savored it.

At present, Tian Qingji has gnawed half of this leg of mutton, and he didn't see the retainers do it, although they accepted it, but it was still a little difficult to make them completely change for a while, and the second was that although they smelled the smell of meat, but with Sanada Changhui's description, they really couldn't do it for a while.
