However, the inscription on the tomb of Jiangxia Yuken records that in the third year of Yongroku (1560 AD), Jiangxia Yuken was captured by the Kawauchi Japanese in Satsuma Province and brought to Satsuma Province to live in the courtyard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info from then on, with his ability to learn easily, especially divination, he stayed in the Shimazu family to serve the head of the family.

Speaking of which, you should understand that the Shimazu family's statement to Jiangxia Yuxian is that they took refuge in the Shimazu family because of the Kyoto Rebellion, but in fact they were caught by the Shimazu family's Kawauchi Japanese robbers and went to the Shimazu family, and the Shimazu family's statement is just a whitewash of their own behavior. In any case, it is a fact that Jiangxia Yuxian was brought to Shimazu's house anyway.

According to the Shimazu family chronicle, in December of the 10th year of Tensho (1582 AD), Shimazu Yoshihiro, who was already the eighth generation of the local lord of Higo Province, received Captain Yasutomi Sabei as an envoy sent from the Hizen Ma family (actually a hostage sent by the Arima family) and asked Arima Harunobu to return home.

However, Shimazu didn't know whether it was appropriate to let him go back to the former country, and Shimazu Yoshihiro still had questions when making the decision, so he asked Jiangxia Yuxian to divinate to determine the good luck and evil when he let Arima Harunobu return to China. The final result of this event was the return of Arima Harunobu to Japan, and in the 12th year of Tensho (1584 AD), he joined forces with Shimazu Yoshihisa, defeated him in the Battle of Okita, and killed Ryuzoji Takanobu, which stabilized the rule of the Arima clan in the Shimabara region of Hizen Province and made the Shimazu family stronger.

It is also recorded that in November of the 11th year of Tensho (1583 AD), Shimazu Yoshihisa asked Koxia Tomogen to divinate whether Kakukan Uei should resign from his position as the elder of the family. Even the appointment of the old figures of the family was handed over to Jiangxia Youxian for divination, which shows the importance attached to his divination skills.

At the same time, it is also possible that Shimazu Yoshihisa taught all the answers he wanted to Jiang Xia Yuxian in advance for his own purposes, and only said it to everyone when he had his divination. From the Shimazu family's standpoint, this is very possible.

At the same time, Jiangxia Yuken was also responsible for other divination tasks in the Shimazu family, such as divination of the quality of the land, the location of the castle, the location of the temple, and the location of the cemetery.

Obviously, in addition to fortune-telling and divination, Jiangxia Youxian is likely to also know how to use feng shui, otherwise you give him ten guts, in a foreign country, in the face of bandit-like people from the Shimazu family, he will not dare to choose a cemetery for others, but it is certain that he should not rob tombs.

In the Battle of Wenlu Qingchang, Jiangxia Youxian, as a diplomat, received Shen Weijing, who came to the Ming Kingdom, and when Shen Weijing came to Japan, he saw him and said, "I've heard of your name, but I don't know where you're going, it turns out that you are in Japan!" ”

After hearing this, Toyotomi Hideyoshi planned to poach Tomoken of the Shimazu family, but he rejected the idea of Sekihaku at that time on the grounds that he did not serve the second lord in the Ming Kingdom.

In general, this person is still relatively mysterious, Cong Daming went to the Wa Kingdom, although he was finally able to die, but he didn't know whether the ideal in his heart was realized.

"I have admired the name of Lord Jiangxia for a long time, and I finally got my true face recently." Imate said with a smile.

This is all before the Kuroda family went out to the Shimazu family, Kuroda Vocational High School personally handed over to the Iate Tomoshi clan, this is definitely a pure Ming country taste. Jiang Xia Youxian, this person Kuroda Vocational High School knew before crossing, after all, he was a rare Chinese who could leave his name in the history of the Warring States of the Wei Kingdom, so Kuroda Vocational High School was still very interested in him.

Therefore, Kuroda Vocational High School's first order for this person was to directly capture Jiangxia Youxian, and let him finally surrender to the Kuroda family and send him to Kuroda Castle. It is because of the attention of Kuroda Vocational High School that the Imate Tomoshi is so polite to him now.

"I'm just a little person, I miss the Kuroda family's grace of not killing, and thank you for such preferential treatment."

"Hmmm! In fact, it was the decision of the lord of the family, who thought that the lord was a man of great wisdom, so he specially asked to treat Lord Jiangxia well. ”

"Kuroda-sama?" Jiang Xia Youxian asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's the lord of the family."

"There is only a person who is like a wanderer in the next place, and he is only a white body in the Shimazu family, how can He De let Kuroda-sama remember it like this, in this case, he is willing to submit to the Kuroda family." Jiangxia Youxian said respectfully.

"Your Excellency means that you are willing to submit to my Kuroda family, right?" Jiangxia Youxian took refuge in it so easily, and Ide Yushi still felt a little unrealistic.

"Hey, exactly." Jiang Xia Youxian replied respectfully.

"With your identity as a native of the Ming Kingdom, and you are very knowledgeable, the lord should appreciate you!" Imate said with a smile.

"What my lord means, the lord of your Kuroda family likes the knowledge of the Ming people, right?"

"My father-in-law's love for the culture of the Ming people seems to be an open thing!"

"I see, it's just that it's in a quiet corner of the lower place, and it's lonely and unheard, so I don't know about these things. It's just that there is one thing that I think must be explained. I think that although the lord of your family admires the civilization of my Celestial Empire, it should also be mainly Confucianism to learn! ”

"I think that although the lord of your family admires the civilization of my Celestial Empire, he should mainly learn Confucianism! For this kind of useless Taoist knowledge, I think the lord should be unsightly, right? Jiangxia Youxian said.

"I really don't know what kind of culture the lord of the family is learning from the Ming Kingdom, but one thing I am sure of is that as long as it is useful to the family, no matter what kind of thought it belongs to, which cultural school, the lord should like it. Therefore, there should be no idea that what you said has no effect, otherwise the lord of the family will not learn the thoughts of soldiers, miscellaneous families, and peasant families. The lord said that as long as it is a culture that exists, it must have its rationality, and when we look at the problem, we must remove the dross and take the essence of it, which is the attitude of learning. ”

When Shigeharu Takenaka finished saying this, Jiangxia Youxian was stunned for a moment. It turns out that the lord of the Kuroda family is such an interesting person, not only learning the ideas of Confucianism, but also the ideas of the soldiers, miscellaneous families, and farmers, and he also said the profound words of removing the dross and taking the essence of it, and there is also a philosophical charm such as existence is reasonable, although it is still very different from his Taoist philosophy.
