Chapter 34: Exploring the Western Kingdom

"Speaking of which, Lord Shaofu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is really a great young talent!" Yoshiki Adachi said with a sudden smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"The general praised it falsely, and he was stupid, so he didn't deserve such praise from the general." Kuroda vocational high school bowed to Yoshiki Adachi again.

"Lord Minbu Shaofu, you are too modest, who said that you deserve to be praised? At least in my opinion, there are almost no young samurai in the four seas of this great country that can compare with you! Of course, there may still be, but those two young people have already been recruited by you, right? Yoshiki Adachi squinted and said with a smile at Kuroda.

"The minister is terrified." Kuroda said with a high head.

Kuroda Vocational High School knows very well that Adachi Yoshiki is probably talking about Shigeharu Takenaka and Masayuki Sanada, and with the two participating in the battle at Kuroda's house, the two are now at least somewhat famous in the western country, and Shigeharu Takenaka's original reputation in Mino Province is still there.

"Okay, Kuroda Minbu, you don't need this, I don't mean anything else. Let me tell you from the bottom of my heart, I have always been very envious of your Kuroda family, because as a small family that started from a wealthy family (for the general, the original Kuroda family is really just a small family), it is possible to have an outstanding heir like you. I think that my Ashikaga family has not produced outstanding people for more than 100 years since the ancestor Ashikaga Yoshikyo, otherwise after the Onin Rebellion, how could I have the current situation of the Adachi Sect? It would be great if my Ashikaga family could have an heir like you, even if it was just a concubine without any rights. Ashikaga Yoshiki said with some sighs.

"Your Excellency the General is wrong in what he said." Kuroda said suddenly.

"Oh! Kuroda Minbu, tell me, what's wrong? Yoshiki Adachi suddenly looked at Kuroda Vocational High School with sharp eyes, and said in a somewhat unkind tone.

Yoshiki Adachi is still a general now, and few people will confront him in person, and now Kuroda suddenly said that what he said was wrong, of course he would be unhappy. Not only was the general unhappy, but even Hosokawa Fujitaka, Wada Yumasa and others looked at this person who claimed to be the Kirin of the Western Kingdom in surprise, and they didn't know why this smart man who was praised to the sky said this.

"Your Excellency General, you just said that since the General's family has been self-sufficient and righteous, there has been no outstanding person in the past hundred years, and I can't agree with it. Because in my opinion, the general himself has won the true inheritance of the sword saint Tsukahara Bu Den, and his martial arts are so high that it is difficult to match anyone in this world. So if you have the courage to say it, the shogun is the amazing person of the Ashikaga family! Kuroda said respectfully to Yoshiki Adachi.

Hearing Kuroda Vocational High School's ass, Adachi Yoshiki knew that this was his compliment, but he really ate Kuroda Vocational High School's set, so he immediately laughed.

"You're really good at talking! But what I'm most proud of is indeed my own martial arts, and I can't do anything else, hahaha! ”

"Kuroda Vocational High School" Yoshiki Adachi said solemnly after laughing, sitting up straight.

"Hey" Kuroda also lowered his head, waiting for the general's order.

"I'm a direct person, I've seen everything the Kuroda family has done over the years, and your Kuroda family is a great loyal servant, I have no doubt about that." Yoshiki Adachi said.

"This is all within the Kuroda family's duty as a subordinate of the shogunate, as long as they can relieve the shogun's worries, the Kuroda family will be satisfied." Kuroda said it very respectfully, but he himself knew how hypocritical it was, and he didn't ask for anything in return, he only gave things, he was a fool, and he was very sick.

"Hmmm! So this time you are here to see you! It's the first time I've seen an interesting young man like you. I heard that the Kuroda family and the Niko family have divided the land of Mimasaka Province equally. It's just that I heard that the Niko family was in the process, and they couldn't do much, so I'll hand over the position of the guardian of Misaku to your Kuroda family! In the land of the two realms of yin and yang, the Kuroda family has already possessed six kingdoms and two and a half kingdoms, and has almost occupied half of the stone height of the two realms of yin and yang. In this case, I will also hand over the post of exploring the Western Kingdom to the Kuroda family, hoping that the Kuroda family can continue to serve the shogunate and guard the four directions. Yoshiki Adachi said.

After Adachi Yoshiki finished speaking, Kuroda Vocational High School was stunned for a long time, and the Western Kingdom explored the topic, and he was the boss of the highest administrative body that managed the Yin and Yang Realms in the shogunate.

The original name was Nagato Detective, but it was the name of the front-line defense agency set up by the Kamakura Shogunate in Nagato Province in the 2nd year of Kenji (1276) at the time of the invasion of the Great Yuan Dynasty. Correspondingly, because of the establishment of this institution, the power of Nagato Kuni's guardianship has also been expanded.

Since the first Nagato exploration Hojo Soyori, this position has been held by the Hojo clan. Historically, during the Hojo Tokinao period, this position was also called the Nagato Weekly Defense Exploration Question.

There is no doubt that in history, the position of probing was definitely one of the most important local positions in the Muromachi shogunate. Specifically, there are four positions: Kyushu Exploration (Zhenxi Exploration, Kyushu Administration), Western Exploration, Oshu Exploration (Oshu Administration) and Yushu Exploration (Dewa General), respectively, the military and political power of Kyushu, China (referring to San'in and Sanyo), Mutsu, and Dewa, and these places are military and political places where troops have been stationed in previous dynasties.

However, after the Onin Rebellion, the daimyo of all walks of life went their own way and attacked each other, and the value of these so-called probes has been in name only.

"Yes, thank you for the grace of the Shogun, and I, the Kuroda family, will continue to do my best for the Shogun." Kuroda looked at Yoshiki Adachi.

"Hmmm! As long as you continue to serve the shogunate as you are now, it would be good. Yoshiki Adachi said.

"Hey!"

As soon as Kuroda Vocational High School came out of the Nijo Imperial Palace with satisfaction, a concentric group came to report to Hattori Masanari.

"Hanzo, what's wrong." Kuroda asked.

"Young Lord, I just got the information that the Miyoshi family is going to attack Kyoto, and the target is the Shogun and the Young Lord." Hattori said.

"What?" Kuroda said in surprise.

"Young master, please hurry up and take someone away!" Hattori said.

"Let's go to the north of the city and wait, you order someone to inform everyone to go to the north of the city to meet, and we will leave immediately. In addition, we will send someone to immediately inform the people left behind in Sakai Town to go to Tamba Province to join us, and then we will write a letter and send someone back to Kuroda Castle immediately, and be sure to hand it over to my father. ”

"Hey!"

"After that, we have to hurry to the country of Tamba, whether we live or die on this way, it may depend on us." Kuroda said. (To be continued.) )
