Jueshu glanced at this person and shook his head.
"No need."
The mage smiled dryly, closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Jueshu knew that this person had some relationship with the old sect of Koyasan Shingon sect, but he did not want to scold him at this time, so as not to embarrass everyone.
She sneered in her heart, the dead Ootaisuo was really powerful.
While making good friends with the Tiantai Sect, he devoted himself to practicing Buddhism and getting close to the Tiantai Sect. While sending his own daughter to Kofukuji Temple, she was raised by the Shingon sect.
He kept silent and took advantage of both sides, really treating the Tiantai Sect as a fool.
Master Chueshu has always been very proud of being able to establish a relationship with Da Yutai. She advocated the strategy of taking the upper-level route and influencing the shogunate by getting close to the Ashikaga Shogun's family.
But I didn't expect that Odaisho's method was even better. He used a daughter to win over the Shingon sect secretly and reached another kind of close relationship.
This was a hard slap on Jueshu's face, and it made her unable to cry out the pain. The kindness of upbringing is greater than that of heaven. Ashikaga Yoshiaki must be thinking about the goodness of Shingon sect.
Even before Ashikaga Yoshiaki takes over, the Tendai Sect is looking down upon him and begging the Shingon Sect for help? Doesn’t this mean to tell everyone that Mount Hiei will be shorter than Mount Koya from now on?
Absolutely not!
Therefore, the Tendai Sect must solve this trouble by itself, and cannot let the Shingon Sect or other sects underestimate the influence of Mount Hiei.
Thinking of Xiangguo Temple, Jueshu's face became slightly deserted and he said.
“The body of General Ashikaga was sent to Sokokuji Temple by the Miyoshi rebels.
The Linji Sect disregarded dignity, held a funeral for Lord Gongfang without authorization, and overrode the placement of the general's body. This mistake must be corrected.
No matter what, we must reach a tacit agreement with His Highness Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and the funeral of General Ashikaga must be reorganized. "
Master Kyushu can temporarily tolerate the Buddhist flag of the Nichiren Sect, but the Nichiren Sect has long since declined and cannot shake the foundation of the Tiantai Sect.
The Rinzai sect took advantage of Ashikaga Yoshiteru's funeral to suppress the momentum it created at Shokokuji Temple. The Mihaoshi family was rebellious, and the Rinzai sect was in collusion with the rebellion, so the funeral they held could not be counted.
The shogunate will definitely support this matter.
If Ashikaga Yoshiaki wants to succeed to the throne, he must properly handle the affairs of his ancestors. Closing the coffin is a major political matter and should not be taken carelessly.

Oda Nobunaga escorted Ashikaga Yoshiaki to Beijing, and an unexpected incident occurred during the Kamiro ceremony.
Nichigen of Honnoji Temple of Nichiren Sect took the opportunity to raise a flag and sow discord between the Oda family and Tendai Sect.
The nuns of the Tendai Sect who were used to being domineering and arrogant really fell into the trap and left the welcoming queue to return to Mount Hiei.
Peter Bautista, a Nanman priest who was secretly preaching in Kyoto, saw a glimmer of opportunity.
She intended to contact Oda Nobunaga, a powerful feudal lord, to find a new breakthrough for the Nanman Sect's missionary work.
If the Nanman Sect is granted the right to preach by the shogunate through the Oda family, the Oda family will definitely anger the Ichiko clan.
The Yixiang Sect has been brutally fighting against the Nanman Sect in the Settsu Kingdom over the years, claiming to be the guardian of the Buddhist faith.
If it was because of Oda Nobunaga that the spread of Nanmanism would move from underground to the stage. This is an extreme provocation to Ishiyama Honganji Temple and will never be tolerated.
The Nichiren Sect's painstaking revenge, the Tendai Sect's arrogance and rudeness, the Nanman Sect's waiting for opportunities, the core interests of the Ichikai Sect, and the old Shingon sect where Ashikaga Yoshiaki was born.
A small accident in Shangluo Zhiyi is like a spark that may ignite the powder keg that has been accumulated for many years by various religious parties in recent times.
If this trigger really breaks out, I am afraid that the neutral tacit understanding between the Wu family and the sect to keep a distance will be completely broken.
When the sectarian disputes are intertwined with the martial arts disputes, the world will become even more chaotic.
———
Ise Sadakyo stood at the front of the welcoming queue despite his illness. After spring plowing, the weather became warmer, but she was weak and could not help but tremble slightly.
But she refused the support of her retainers and remained standing like an old pine tree in Kyoto. Stand up straight, follow etiquette, and dare not slack off.
While waiting, some Oda troops raised the Nichiren sect's Buddhist flag, and some nuns from the Tendai sect left the scene angrily.
But the well-informed old woman of the shogunate didn't even raise her eyes, and still stood respectfully in front of the queue, with a calm demeanor.
The shogunate has not been peaceful for many years. What kind of scenes has the Ise Sadato Church not seen before? She could tell at a glance that someone was causing trouble, but she was in no mood to care about anything else at the moment and couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
The unexpected end of the battle of Shangluo caused the counterattack planned by Ise Sadao to lose its opportunity before it could be launched.
She had to lament that after all, it was young people who acted decisively.
Matsuhisa Nagahide was more shameless than she imagined. Without any thought of Miyoshi Changqing's kindness, he cut off the fate of Miyoshi's family with a sword in his hand. Miyoshi's family would inevitably decline in the future.
Having lost the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, the Ise Sadao cult could not care about those troublemakers who had evil intentions and took advantage of Luo Zhiyi to cause trouble.
Now she only has one thought in her mind, how will the Ise family survive?
At the beginning, the conflict between Ise Sadaoka and Ashikaga Yoshiteru had intensified to the extreme.
When Sanhao went to Luo, the ministers did not care about their territory, but she was the one who got involved. Miyoshi was entrenched in Kyoto, and it was she who negotiated with the Miyoshi family.
Others can dodge and argue that they have no choice but to clean up Ise Sadakyo, the treacherous mastermind who is a collaborator with the enemy.
Ise Sada is old and she is not afraid of death. She was only afraid that the Ise family, the head of the hereditary government, would die with her.
In order to arrange a way out for the family business, she had to stand here and find a way to communicate with Ashikaga Yoshiaki and find a way to keep the Ise family alive.
Matsunaga's approach gave her a hint of inspiration. After all, why should she care about her old face?
Face, no more. As long as she can pass the test, she can be shameless and have no bottom line.
When a person severely offends a leader and there is a fierce conflict between the two parties, how can one obtain the leader's forgiveness or even be reused?
Open your heart? A sincere apology? That's because he didn't die quickly enough.
He just thrust the hilt of the knife into the leader's hand, wishing he could get stabbed a few more times and die in a justified way? How stupid.
The best way is to establish a common goal and replace the secondary conflict with the leader with a more intense primary conflict.
Only with the same hatred will the leader forgive you and use you to deal with the more threatening enemy.
The battle of Shangluo ended in an anticlimactic manner, due to the rebellion of Miyoshi's retainer Matsunaga Hide.
But Oda Nobunaga pulled Ashikaga Yoshiaki to quickly go to Luo, monopolize the great achievements, and completely ignore the embarrassment of Shiba Yoshigan. Is there any discord in this?
The problems within the Shangluo army may be more serious than what Ise Sadaoka himself imagined.
Ise Sakyo knew that he was guilty of a serious crime and could not get through it with normal means. But if there were big differences within the Shangluo army as she suspected, then she would still have a chance to stand up.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki, a descendant of Ashikaga who lacks status, and Oda Nobunaga, a daimyo from the countryside, do they just want to regain the shogunate? impossible.
Everyone has ambition, but power cannot be shared.
Sibo Yiyin has great righteousness and is unparalleled in battle. He is a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of all ambitious warriors who covet the power of the shogunate.
As long as Shiba Yoshigan is in charge of the shogunate, it will be difficult for everyone to realize their ambitions. He is like the sun, too shining and too brilliant, giving no chance to others to climb up.
Ruining someone's future naturally leads to deep hatred. There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the earth. Who doesn’t want to fight for power?
This world belongs to Warrior Ji. This is the way of the world, where women are superior to men. How many women are really willing to bow down to a man?
Ha, man. Hey, woman.
———
The ceremony of Shangluo was not interrupted because of the departure of the nuns of the Tiantai Sect. After a brief period of confusion, both Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga chose to ignore the matter and continue the ceremony.
Oda Nobunaga could not fall out with the Nichiren Sect. She also needed the Nichiren Sect's caravan merchants and iron cannon workshops.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki also needs the support of Oda Nobunaga, otherwise she would not have the confidence to deal with Yoshigan Shiba and the samurai family of the shogunate.
Since everyone has something to hide, small accidents cannot shake the foundation of mutual trust.
The ministers in Kyoto are also experienced in the world and respond very quickly. They are all waiting for sin, so they naturally have to understand the principles of observing words and emotions.
A ceremony to welcome the new master continued enthusiastically. The Kyoto shogunate led by Ise Sakyo invited Ashikaga Yoshiaki into the Nijo Imperial Palace.
The original Muromachi Imperial Palace was burned down, and the Grand Imperial Palace and Ashikaga Teru-kun were buried in the flames.
The ministers had no choice but to use Nijo Castle, where Ashikaga Yoshiteru died, as the imperial palace to welcome the new master to live there.
Although Ashikaga Yoshiaki feels unlucky, Nijo Imperial Palace is also the residence of Ashikaga Yoshiteru after all, and it has strong political significance.
In order to show that he inherited the legacy of the Ashikaga shogun family, Ashikaga Yoshiaki held his nose and entered the Nijo Imperial Palace, which can be regarded as a formal statement to the world's samurai family about his intention to succeed.
The Nijo Imperial Palace was renovated by the shogunate, and the main hall where Ashikaga Yoshiteru was murdered was converted into a side room.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki took a seat in the new meeting hall, and Oda Nobunaga sat down half a seat. Next were the high-ranking samurai who escorted her to Luo, such as Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Oda Nobunaga insisted on going to Luo, and Asai Nagamasa and Shiba Yoshigan returned to their bases one after another, but they failed to catch up with this dispatch.
The military strength of Maeda Toshiie and Todo Toraka was left in the land of Minami Omi. Only the Mikawa Tokugawa family sent more than a thousand troops to share in the victory.
This was also a step taken by Oda Nobunaga to deliberately win over Tokugawa Ieyasu and gradually classify the Tokugawa family as a subsidiary of the Oda family.
Tokugawa Ieyasu is not without a sense of crisis, but she has always been good at forbearing. This time in Shangluo, she acted in a high-profile manner and behaved in a low-key manner. She did not say anything, did not fight or grab, but she seemed to be responsible.
The ministers then entered the hall and sat down, and all saluted Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the surviving daughter of the Ashikaga Shogun family.
Although this is somewhat against the rules, after all, Ashikaga Yoshiaki has not yet succeeded to the shogunate. But the ministers were eager to show off, so what rules should they pay attention to at this time? As long as the new master is happy.
Sure enough, Ashikaga Yoshiaki enjoyed this feeling very much, and Oda Nobunaga followed him for half a seat, also squinting in intoxication.
After everyone had finished their greetings and polite remarks, the conversation got to the point.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki looked at Ise Sakyo, the chief minister, and said calmly.
"It's been really hard for Mr. Ise these days."
Ise Sadakyo's heart trembled, knowing that the drama was coming. In the Kyoto Incident, the ministers were guilty. She is the mastermind behind the scenes, and she adds guilt to crime.
When Ashikaga Yoshiaki first arrived, he must settle old accounts and establish his prestige.
Ise Sadakyo knew that the survival of his family business depended on this, and after taking a deep breath, he spoke.
"My servant is guilty and his crime is unforgivable. How dare you call him hard?"
Ashikaga Yoshiaki said with a smile.
"Why do you say this, sir?"
Oda Nobunaga smiled and said nothing.
With the female soldier of the Oda family at her side, Kyoto is already under her control. Today's Shangluo Zhiyi still has a few lives left to decorate the lintel and shock Xiaoxiao.
It's not complicated to say. The wisdom of the predecessors is to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga have already reached a tacit understanding that the ministers must pay the price for their actions.
Oda Nobunaga was sharpening his sword eagerly, his eyes were like a cat playing with a mouse, watching how Ise Sadaji struggled, and taking a look at the quality of this veteran shogunate.
Ise Sadakyo fell to the ground and kowtowed, expressing his sorrow.
"The old minister is old and has no interest in worldly affairs for a long time.
When my ancestor was still alive, he cared about my lack of energy, so he left the affairs of the government to Ninagawa Akashi-sama.
Lord Ninagawa is reliable in her work and is highly trusted by the ancestors and the imperial court, so I can trust her with peace of mind.
During the Kyoto Incident, Lord Ninagawa happened to be away. The three good rebel parties are entrenched in the capital, making people panic, fearing that rebellion will run rampant and destroy the thousand-year-old capital.
As a last resort, I stepped in to deal with them, perfunctory the Sanhao family, and did many things that went against my conscience.
Although the situation was helpless, it was indeed an act of disloyalty to the ancestors. I sincerely request His Highness Ashikaga Yoshiaki to severely punish me so that all the ladies in the shogunate will take a warning. "
Ise Sadakyo knew that he had done too much and it was useless to quibble, so he simply admitted it.
Yes, she did a lot of things for the Miyoshi family, but they were all to protect Kyoto. If the Ashikaga Shoguns want to pursue her for her disloyalty, she will plead guilty and be punished.
But there was something else in her confession, which was that she secretly revealed that Ninagawa and Yoshigan Shiba had a very good relationship.
Ise Sakyo was gambling, and the two highnesses on the gambling table were more concerned about the immortal Odaisho, Yoshigan Shiba, than the already cold ancestor of Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
The only chance left for the Ise family is whether Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga are willing to see the political office, the core institution of the shogunate, controlled by ministers close to Yoshihiro Saba.
Sure enough, Ashikaga Yoshiaki frowned slightly, and Oda Nobunaga pretended to be curious and took over the conversation.
"That Lord Ninagawa has an old relationship with Lord Kenshin? But how come I heard that the relationship between Lord Kenshin and the ministers is not harmonious."
Yoshigan Shiba came to Kyoto from Owari and had many conflicts with the ministers.
The imperial family system was restarted after the War of Norada and the imperial family status was given to the Todo family members, which touched the interests of the shogunate.
To take down the guardianship of Iga country, let the founding of Iga country return to the guardianship system, so that the ministers lost a major financial source of seclusion in Iga.
There are also ministers who contacted Miyoshi Changqing and served as a backbone during the war. After the war, he tried his best to prevent the rise of the Shiba family, fearing that it would affect the check and balance of power in the shogunate.
It can be said that Oda Nobunaga's information was correct. The rise of the Shiba family was constantly harming the interests of the ministers, and the relationship between the two parties was therefore quite cold.
But there are exceptions to everything, and Ise Sadaoka really has dirty water to throw at Ninagawa Makoto.
