Yiyin thought for a while and continued.
“In addition, I will also write to the head of Xingfu Temple, Kyushu, and ask her to come forward and convey my concerns to Master Kyushu of Tiantai Sect.
Yixiang Zong protects the Dharma in Settsu, which is the great duty of protecting the Dharma for all believers. It's fine if Hieizan Enryakuji Temple doesn't help protect the Dharma. It's not a good thing to tarnish a person's reputation and affect the unity of the sect. "
Although Yiyin decided to intervene, Yiyin did not want to take the initiative himself, so he still wanted to keep a low profile.
As for Oda Nobunaga, there was nothing he could do to stop him. But for the shogunate that is riddled with holes, some minefields can be laid.
Hatakeyama Takamasa had just been promoted to the position of leader of the shogunate with the help of the Shiba family. With the support of the powerful local faction in the shogunate and receiving hints from Yoshihiro, she will definitely work hard to gain a sense of presence in the shogunate.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki's face? That must not be given. The shogunate and the leaders of the shogunate fought every day, and the shogunate families had long been used to it.
As long as Ashikaga Yoshiaki is blocked, the Oda family's actions in Settsu country will be restricted, and Oda Nobunaga's infiltration of the Settsu samurai family can be restrained.
Oda Nobunaga, who had just arrived, would not be much of a threat if he could not find a local leader.
As for Tiantai Sect, Yiyin is even more confident.
The Yixiang Sect's fight against the Nanman Sect in Settsu Kingdom was absolutely correct to protect Buddhism. No sect can refute the justice of this matter.
Nanman missionaries appeared in Kyoto to engage in underground missionary work. Tendai Sect, Rinzai Sect, Nichiren Sect and other sects all became cowards, unwilling to offend the shogunate and the Oda family.
The leader of the clan was always fearless and came forward to help everyone solve their problems. However, the Tiantai clan took the opportunity to show favor to the new general and betrayed the Yixiang clan.
The Tiantai Sect is revered as the leader of Buddhist sects by all the sects in the world, but at the critical moment, the Yixiang Sect is thrown out to take the blame. What does it mean?
If Yoshihiro didn't come forward, all the factions would be shameless behind their backs, and they really couldn't take advantage of Master Kakushu on Mount Hiei. But Yiyin was more serious and expressed his dissatisfaction.
The Tiantai Sect has done so many things to offend their peers over the years, but Master Shan has so many people that everyone has no choice but to endure it.
If a big boss like Shiba Yiyin, who is not afraid of the Tiantai Sect, comes forward and leads to public outrage under the surging public opinion, Master Jueshu must consider it carefully.
What's more, Yiyin is now a Nakanisho certified by Koyasan. Honganji Mianru is complaining to him, and Kofukuji Temple Chief Kaku helps him convey his opinions.
This matter is equivalent to the endorsement of Shishan and Koyasan. It is difficult for Master Jueshu to muddle through, so he must make a firm statement.
The expansion of Nanman religion has violated the interests of all Buddhist sects. The Yixiang Sect is fighting the thunder from the front. As the boss of the Tiantai Sect, even if he doesn't help, it's not easy to stab him in the back.
This is too much!
Master Kakushu could not bear the pressure, and the religious order at Enryaku Temple on Mount Hiei would not allow her to be confused on such a big issue of right and wrong.
It is conceivable that the attitudes of the various factions in Kyoto will become tougher, they will be more sensitive to the behavior of the shogunate in the Settsu strategy, and they will never back down from incidents related to the Nanman Cult.
With the checks and balances of Hatakeyama inside and the supervision of Master Kakushu outside, Ashikaga Yoshiaki did not dare to take a wrong step on the issue of Nanman Sect.
That's it, it's not over yet, Yiyin said again.
"I will personally go to Sakai Port and explain to Takada Haruno.
The Shiba Shinsengumi is stationed in Sakai Port. It is the responsibility of the Shiba family for the shogunate, so let her pay more attention to it.
The Shiba family will not allow any force to cause trouble in Sakai Port and disrupt the good situation of unity and harmony under the shogunate.
If the ten people of the Sakai Huizhong Nawu can manage the Sakai Port well, the Shiba family will not interfere.
If they are weak and incompetent, they can't take care of things and let the traitors succeed. As the shogunate's garrison representative in Sakai Port, the Shiba Shinsengumi will never stand idly by.
But, I don't want things to come to this. If the Shiba Shinsengumi were to come forward, it would definitely cause an uproar, and it would probably affect the long-term interests of the Hokurikudo trade route.
Therefore, I will secretly go to Sakai Port and explain the matter to Takada Yono privately, and please forgive me, Master Xianru. "
Yoshigan looked at Honganji Hiro with an apology on his face. Honganji Temple has a smile on its face, please forgive me? Why should I forgive you? Sibo Yiyin is a good man! terrific!
It is clear that the Master is very satisfied with Yiyin's three measures.
The Settsu strategy is still a matter of horoscope. It seems that the master is because he has just offended the shogunate and the Oda family, and he is afraid that the Settsu strategy will catch the rabbit.
Yi Bank took three preventive measures to provide insurance from the shogunate, the sect, and the Sakai Port. Judging from the current situation, it is enough to make Yi Xiangzong feel at ease.
He even used a little trick to graft his upcoming trip to Sakai Port to visit the Takada sisters into working for the Ichikai clan.
With this relationship, he will inevitably be closely protected by the Ichigo clan during his subsequent journey to Sakai Port, and the Miyoshi family will not dare to act rashly.
Yoshigan was not interested in the olive branch extended by Miyoshi Yoshitsugi, and the Miyoshi family had begun to decline at an accelerated pace.
Settsu Kingdom will definitely not be saved, and Sakai Port is destined to be lost. However, the shogunate and the Oda family do not yet have the ability to fight across the sea. The Miyoshi family retreated to Shikoku Island and should be able to survive for a while.
Yoshigan did not want to break up with Miyoshi Yoshitsugi. After all, the trade line in the Seto Inland Sea was still within the attack range of the Anzhai Navy. It would be unprofitable for everyone to break up.
But the decline of the Sanhao family has been unstoppable, and it is highly likely that they will die in the future.
What's more, the death of Ashikaga Yoshiteru is a deadlock that both parties cannot get around, so there is no need to deepen cooperation. Just for the benefit of the Hokuriku Road trade route, both parties endured their nausea and temporarily cooperated.
As for going further? forget it.
———
At the end of Sakai Minato Street, two exotic and beautiful women were whispering.
The islanders passing by all around cast different looks at them, but they were silent in their foreign language conversations and didn't care.
Lilu, Agot said impatiently.
"Why aren't you here? Didn't you say that the big shot will pass by today?"
Christina, Enek glanced at her and sighed.
“I have to remind you, my dear captain.
The street we are on now is not an area of Sakai Port open to us so-called Nanman people. You are playing with fire.
We should quickly return to the port area. If caught by the island nation's Ji Samurai, you will be thrown out of your stomach. Well, seppuku. "
Lilu shrugged and said.
"Evil Christina, I already know what seppuku is. It is a way of death belonging to the Hime Warriors, and I am not qualified to endure it."
Christina curled her lips and said.
"Okay, let me put it another way, you will have your head chopped off."
Lilu looked back and forth impatiently and said.
“Yes, yes, we will be beheaded.
Why haven't you come yet? Did that bastard at the port lie to me?
Damn it, a whole five gold coins in exchange for this news. I swear, if I can't wait for anyone today, I will go back and give that guy a good look! "
Christina sighed.
"Lilu, to be honest, I think we should leave here immediately, I have a bad feeling.
Your information is very problematic. You dare to take risks without even knowing what kind of big shot will come. This is asking for death.
We should talk to Mr. Takada Haruno. You have to know that not all the nobles in this island country are as easy to talk to as Mr. Takada Haruno.
If, I mean if the big shot really comes, you really stop her. How can you guarantee that she will help you instead of choosing to chop off your head?
You are playing with our lives, Lilu.
I think you are being irrational now, and I think I need to carefully consider whether to find a new captain. "
Lilu spread her hands and said.
"Okay, my beautiful and charming adjutant, please stop your terrible idea of finding another job. You must know that the reason why we are here is to save your compatriots.
I, a Dutchman, am in danger for your countryman, an Englishman.
Aren't you a little bit moved? Cold-blooded British lady. "
Christina rolled her eyes and said.
"Come on, greedy Captain Dutch. Just admit it, you're only after her money, her goods."
Lilu didn't care about her companion's ruthless exposure and smiled.
"Well, that's part of it, but long live the friendship between the Dutch and the English."
Seeing her lustful look, Christina sighed deeply and said.
“Lilu, you have to understand that the relationship between the Netherlands and Britain is good now only because the Spanish and Portuguese are too powerful.
One day in the future, I mean if one day, Britain and the Netherlands join forces to break the monopoly of the Liberians on the sea, the relationship between our two countries will be over.
What Holland will do, I don’t know. But based on my understanding of the big figures in our country, they will definitely attack the Netherlands without hesitation. "
Lilu smiled indifferently.
"Innocent Christina, the future? Are you talking to me about the future?
We will all die in the future, dying on the hospital bed, calling the name of the man we once loved but never got, dying in regret.
Let's be realistic, let's look at the present, now.
Your countryman is stranded on this island nation in the Far East, being threatened with conversion by a group of religious lunatics, and she needs our help.
As long as we are willing to lend a helping hand, all the cargo on her ship will be ours. That is a whole shipload of top-quality goods from America!
Listen, Christina, I have to try, I can't let those five gold coins go to waste. "
Christina couldn't help but moan.
"Damn money lover Lilu, I am really crazy to choose to go to sea with you, I will have my head chopped off because of your stupidity!
I curse that little bastard who talked nonsense after taking five gold coins from you. I swear, she must have been talking nonsense!
If you go back now, you will definitely see her enjoying the wine and men you exchanged for your gold coins, and she has already lost her last copper plate on the gambling table. I can guarantee you! "
Seeing that her adjutant was about to explode, Lilu raised her hands in fright and said hurriedly.
“Okay, Christina, I’ll listen to you, just wait five more minutes.
If nothing is gained, I will go back and skin that bastard, and we will be out of here soon, just five minutes!
I beg you. "
Seeing Lilu clasping her hands together and pleading pitifully, Christina said helplessly.
"Just five minutes! You said it! My pocket watch is accurate!"
Lilu smiled and wanted to delay some time. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, she pointed to a bullock cart driving slowly in front and said.
“Look! That car!
The bullock cart is a luxury item only available to the nobility on this island. The big shot must be sitting in it! "
Christina squinted her eyes and noticed the dozens of Ji warriors nervously alert around the bullock cart, with confusion in their eyes.
She was sure that the bastard on the dock was indeed deceiving Lilu. He had no channels to obtain information at Sakai Port.
But how do you explain the bullock cart in front of you? How to explain the dozens of brave and powerful Ji warriors?
Could it be. . A blind cat meets a dead mouse?
———
In the bullock cart, Yoshiyin and Takada Yono sat opposite each other and said with a smile.
"It seems that our monarch and his ministers have never been alone in this kind of situation, right?"
Takada Yono covered his mouth and chuckled.
"My lord is an eagle in the sky. He has always traveled on horseback. I have never seen you ride in an ox-cart, which is mostly used in high-end boudoirs."
Yiyin patted a corner and smiled.
“Let’s keep a low profile this time when we come to Sakai Port.
Although there is the guarantee of Master Xian Ru and Yi Xiangzong's active protection, the Sanhao family is not exciting if it can't be exciting.
After all, this is the territory of Miyoshi's family. I declined Miyoshi Yoshitsugi's invitation to meet, so I'd better not be too ostentatious. "
Takata Yono curled his lips and said.
"So what if Miyoshi Yasunaga of Sekisuo knows about it? Does she have the guts to do something bad to you?
The Sanhao family is as afraid of you as a tiger, you worry too much. "
Yiyin smiled.
"Be careful with your ship. Besides, it's a rare opportunity to get along with you. It's a good thing."
Takada Yono was stunned for a moment and showed a sweet smile.
Ever since the two had a physical relationship in Kyoto, the master's attitude towards him was indeed different from before.
Takada Yoshino felt happy, and suddenly remembered that the capital injection from the Shibachu Fund that the master had promised could be regarded as his own Shiba base, his eyes twinkled and he said.
"My lord, Ishida Hime's errands have been done well. The Shibachu Fund has begun operations, and the first phase of capital injection has exceeded 100,000 yuan."
Yiyin said unexpectedly.
"Injecting 100,000 guan in more than a month? Yangno, you are really capable."
Seeing Takada Yono's coy look, Yoshiyin suddenly realized that this little girl was Xiang Zhuang's sword dance and was aiming for Pei Gong. He was talking about the Spo Center Fund, but what he was thinking about was the Spo Institute of Technology.
Yiyin smiled helplessly, as Sibo expected. . It's really not what you think. .
he sighed.
"I know what you are thinking. The Shiba Chu Foundation is your and Yukino's Shiba base, I know it in my heart.
But I can't hand it over to you now, the future. . Um. . You will know in the future. "
Yoshihiro is determined to hand over the Shiba Tadashi Fund to the care and management of the Takada family's descendants at the appropriate time, that is, the descendants of himself and Harano Yukino.
But at this time, only Yoshigan and Akechi Mitsuhide knew the true meaning of Shiba's information, and it was really inconvenient for him to explain it clearly.
