Chapter 36: Mitsuaki Miki dies
"Enlightened? Are you really enlightened? But what is enlightenment? What if you are enlightened? For example, if the Buddha made a great wish to purify all sentient beings, and if the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth said that hell is not empty and cannot become a Buddha, they will be enlightened, but when will all kinds of ugliness and chaos in the world stop. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info If I can build a country, everyone has clothes to wear, everyone has food, everyone has a field to cultivate, widows and lonely people have their own support, I will be at ease. The small temple vocational high school suddenly said, and even the people who accompanied him around were surprised by what he said, this is a rare expression of the small temple vocational high school to show the heart of hegemony!
"The depiction of the donor is simply the kingdom of Buddha on earth!" Mingxin said in surprise.
"Earthly Buddha Kingdom? Isn't Kaga known as the kingdom of Buddhas on earth? It's just a group of people who claim to be Buddhists in vain, doing martial arts in the name of Buddha. The so-called earthly Buddha kingdom that I think cannot exist, unless everyone lets go of greed and hatred, and does not have seven emotions and six desires, it can be realized, but then people are not people, and the world will not be so exciting! Koji Zhigao said calmly.
"This, the poor monk has never thought of such a mysterious problem, this is not what he has learned, and what the donor thinks is really embarrassing." Mingxin said ashamedly.
"The master is falsely praised, and he is just a vulgar person, and he only feels it occasionally." Koji Zhigao immediately said modestly.
After that, Koji Vocational High School came to the Izushi Taisha in Izushi County, and also offered 200 pieces of sesame oil money, but he didn't have any understanding of the shrine culture of the island country, so he didn't have any interest, but Harada Yoshizune was originally the main palace secretary of the Kyushu Koharu Taisha Shrine, and he worshiped very respectfully and devoutly.
After that, the three dispatch teams completed the suppression of the three counties of Nikata, Nanami, and Mihan, and at the same time received the news that Takeda Takanobu and Yamana Seitoshi had broken and returned to Ubi Castle. Kotera was very happy, and took everyone to the new hot spring town of Nikata-gun to soak in the hot springs, and immediately entered the province of Inaba through Kamo Pass.
The Yamana family actually arranged a hundred defenders in Kamo Pass, but after knowing that the 3,000 members of the Kuroda army were killed, these defenders directly chose to surrender, which was regarded as saving their lives, and at the same time opened the prelude to the Kuroda family's invasion of Inhata.
Kodera Vocational High School only brought 3,000 people into Inaba Province, leaving Harada Yoshitane, Irita Yoshimi, and Irita Kinri, as well as Yagi Toyonobu and Tayususo Isori, two land snakes, in Tajima Province temporarily. Although the number of high-ranking samurai under his command has decreased, Masayuki Hanabo, Nobuyoshi Umino, Hiratsuka Yoshihiro, Kinoshita Hidenaga and others are still star-studded.
The news was received before Kodera Vocational High School entered Inaba Province, so Kuroda Vocational Duty had personally led Governor Konishi, the monks of the whole sect, and most of the family members, as well as 500 men and horses, into Tajima Province, inspected and pacified various places, and began the work of land inspection.
Because there are no more than ten people in the Equestrian family, plus the pressure of nearly 3,000 people in the Kuroda family, and the assistance of the two land snakes, all the work of the Kuroda family is going very smoothly.
First press the Inaba country strategy is not tabled, talk about the Kuroda family's Bizen country, a major event happened in this matter, the Ekuhisa gundai, the Kuroda family's elder, the foreign minister, the Kuroda family's allies for decades, Miki Tsuaki died in the Jucheng Yagiyama Castle at the age of fifty-three.
At the same time, the Miki family followed Miki Tsumei's last wish, and the eldest son Miki Tsuaki inherited the ruling power of the Miki family.
"The two, I just got the news that Lord Miki passed away yesterday, and I hope that the two adults will mourn." Koji Zhigao said directly to the two.
"What? Father ...... "When Sakabuchi Nagatsu heard the news, he almost fell to the ground in shock, and was held up by Funazu Tsuji.
"Did my father die like this?" Although Funatsui Tsuji was quite calm, he himself was very surprised.
"Yes, the elder brother of the two, Lord Miki Tochi, has already followed his last wish and inherited the position of the governor of the Miki family, and everything is fine in the Miki family for the time being, so the two of them will rush to the funeral in Yagiyama Castle in front of the Bizen!" Koji Zhigao said to the two.
"But Inhata Country's strategy ......," Funatsui said in embarrassment.
"Don't worry, when the two of them turn back to their own family, Inaba Ichikoku should have fallen into the hands of the Kuroda family, although the two of them can rest assured, and there will be more opportunities for meritorious service in the future, so there is no need to rush for a while." Koji said with a smile.
"In that case, thank you for the grace of the young master." The two knelt down to thank the high school of the small temple.
"Hmmm! Hurry back! It should be time to catch up with the burial, Miki is a generational friend of my Kuroda family, and I should go in the next one, but now that the war has begun, I can't leave easily, so I ask the two of you to apologize to Miki Tsuaki. Koji said apologetically to the two.
"The young lord doesn't need to be like this, the Kuroda family's kindness, the Miki family is grateful." After saying that, the two bowed again, got up and left quickly.
At the same time, the head of the Kuroda family, Kuroda Jobaka, originally came to Tajima Province, but now when he heard that his old comrade-in-arms Mitsuaki had passed away, he immediately left the work to Konishi Yukicho and others, and also rushed to Miki's house with two hundred guards.
Because it was already known that Kuroda was going to come to Yagiyama Castle in person to worship Mitsuaki, the Miki family did not bury the body immediately. When Kuroda and the two brothers Itetomoji, Sakabuchi Nagadori, Funatsu Tsuji, and Okamoto Hide, arrived on the third day, they were just in time for the burial.
As soon as Kuroda saw Miki Tsuaki, he held his hand and said excitedly: "I am eight in my Chinese New Year's Eve, but I met Miki Tsuaki-sama when I was four years old, he is a samurai who knows the spirit of bushido, and he is a kind elder who deserves everyone's respect. Although I have not been in the Kuroda family for a long time, I have been able to stabilize one side and make the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is really a banner of my Kuroda family. I never thought that at the beginning of the year, I told the old man to pay more attention to his body, and now I ......, my Kuroda family...... The Kuroda family really fell a pillar stone all at once! As he spoke, Kuroda began to cry, word by word, his voice was extremely choked, and tears wet the placket of his chest.
"My lord, my father also attaches great importance to the Kuroda family, and a few days ago he kept telling his brothers and sisters on the hospital bed that they must continue to serve the Kuroda family faithfully and die without any slackness. Please rest assured, although my father is no longer there, the Miki family will continue to work hard for the Kuroda family, so please don't be too sad. Saying that, Miki Tongqiu also cried with him.
