Yoshitomo Takeda's words were too strong and lethal, and they directly hit Tokugawa Seuhiko's sore spot.
Tokugawa Seuhiko must either protect himself or Tokugawa Taiyasu.
Obviously, oneself is more important.
He was completely defeated by Takeda Yoshitomo's words: "Well... Tokugawa Taiyasu has indeed committed a serious crime. As soon as Yan Qi lets him go, I will immediately chop off his head and punish him severely."
Yoshitomo Takeda sneered: "Whether the British Master should chop off Tokugawa Taiyasu's head or whether he should be punished is the British Master's own problem. It depends on whether the British Master can act in accordance with the law."
"But, that is all for the future, and I don't care at all now. What I care about now is, is Tokugawa Taiyasu, who has a serious crime, still qualified to serve as the first minister of the Taisei? Lord, you answer the question, De Is Kawa Taiyasu still qualified to serve as the First Minister of the Imperial Government?"
"this……"
Tokugawa Yasu hesitated: "It should be...no..."
Yoshitomo Takeda then asked: "How wise the Lord is. Since the Lord said that Tokugawa Taiyasu is not qualified to be the first minister of the Taisei, then he should be dismissed. Why let him occupy the magpie's nest?"
"This...this..."
"After removing the rank of Tokugawa Taisho as the First Minister of Taishokan, I will naturally become the First Minister of Taishokan."
"When I have the title of Grand Administrator and First Minister, I can directly negotiate with Yan Qi on an equal footing. Master Ying, is my idea perfect?"
Tokugawa Seuhiko was absolutely furious.
idiot.
Of course it's perfect for you, but it's extremely terrible for me.
However, when things developed to this point, Tokugawa Taiyasu no longer had any excuse to refuse.
It is certain that Yoshitomo Takeda will become the first minister of the Imperial Government.
Tokugawa Seihiko gritted his teeth and endured the heartache: "Okay, I now announce that Tokugawa Yasuyasu will be dismissed from the position of First Minister of the Taishōgō, and Yoshitomo Takeda will be promoted to the First Minister of the Taishōgō."
As soon as this statement came out, all the officials were shocked.
They also did not expect that Takeda Yoshitomo would suppress Tokugawa Seuhiko and force him to depose Tokugawa Taiyasu after a sonorous argument.
That's not all.
Yoshitomo Takeda was also awarded the title of First Minister of the Imperial Government.
None of the ministers know how to behave.
Congratulations were expressed to Yoshitomo Takeda.
"Congratulations, Lord Takeda, congratulations, Lord Takeda."
"In the future, under the leadership of Takeda-sama, the magistrates will definitely do more practical things and good deeds for the people."
"Mr. Takeda, as a daughter, serves as the first minister of the Imperial Government. She is truly a heroine."
…
Yoshitomo Takeda smiled and returned the greetings to everyone.
Although she was calm on the surface, she was very excited deep down.
With the title of Grand Administrator and First Minister, she can truly have military power.
Only with military power can we have the capital to confront Tokugawa Seihiko.
How many years have you been looking forward to taking this step?
But out of reach.
And under the operation of Lord Yan, just a few tricks helped him to sit in the position of the first minister of the Taizhengguan.
Mr. Yan is truly a god.
Although Takeda Yoshitomo was excited, he maintained a strong sense of reason: "The British Master is indeed wise! Since the British Master has announced me as the first minister of the Taizhengguan, I will not refuse. Next, please take me to the army." Fang Huihui will show his face."
"ah?"
Tokugawa Chenghiko was a little confused: "You are so good, why are you going to the military council?"
Takeda Yoshitomo looked serious: "I am now the First Minister of the Taisei. The First Minister is not only responsible for the economy and society, but also responsible for military construction and dispatch. Isn't it my duty to go to the Military Council to inspect it?"
"Besides, this is the first thing a new official should do when he takes office! I went to the military to inspect the army. Didn't I also show my responsible attitude?"
Tokugawa Seuhiko frowned: "Right now, the South China Sea trade issue is the most important. There is no rush to go to the military for inspections. It is better to solve the South China Sea trade issue as soon as possible."
Yoshitomo Takeda replied: "To go to the South China Sea, I will lead at least 200,000 troops. If I don't show up to the military, how will they listen to my orders?"
When Tokugawa Chenghiko heard this, he blurted out and shouted: "Do you still want the army to obey your orders?"
Yoshitomo Takeda responded tit-for-tat: "What the British Lord said is ridiculous. The First Minister of the Imperial Government controls the military. I am the First Minister of the Imperial Government, and the military listens to my words. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Hey, this..."
Tokugawa Seihiko groaned secretly in his heart. .
It's over, it's over.
This bitch, Yoshitomo Takeda, is getting more and more arrogant.
However, there is nothing you can do against him.
Tokugawa Chengyan made up his mind.
As soon as the South China Sea trade issue is resolved, he will find a reason to get rid of Yoshitomo Takeda.
regardless of costs!
No matter what the consequences!
But for now, he still has to endure the cowardly attitude given to him by Yoshitomo Takeda.
Thinking of this, Tokugawa Chenghiko smiled: "What Mr. Takeda said is true! I will take Mr. Takeda to the military now to communicate with the generals."
Yoshitomo Takeda said: "I'd like to help you lead the way."
…
When Yoshitomo Takeda appeared at the military council, all the military bosses were stunned.
No matter what, they would not believe that Takeda Yoshitomo would become the first minister of the Taishengguan.
This means that from now on, they will accept the leadership and control of Yoshitomo Takeda.
Yoshitomo Takeda came to the military council today just to show his face, prove his identity, and simply chat with the military bosses.
This is considered to establish a leadership relationship.
At this moment, she would not think that she had control of the military.
Because these military bosses are all direct descendants of Tokugawa Seuhiko.
Only by driving away or getting rid of these military bosses can military power fall into their own hands.
…
After Yoshitomo Takeda met with the military boss, he did not return to the mansion, but went directly to the court.
Tokugawa Chenghiko stared closely at Takeda Yoshitomo: "Can Lord Takeda agree to rush to the South China Sea and negotiate with Yan Qi now?"
Yoshitomo Takeda: "Our Takeda family takes the country of Japan as its own responsibility. This time, it is our duty to go to the South China Sea to negotiate with Yan Qi on South China Sea trade issues."
Tokugawa Seuhiko was afraid that Yoshitomo Takeda would cause trouble again, so he immediately asked: "When will we set off?"
Takeda Yoshitomo said: "We can leave early tomorrow morning."
"good!"
Tokugawa Chenghiko breathed a sigh of relief: "Tomorrow, I will go to the South China Sea with you and steer the ship for you."
Yoshitomo Takeda added: "Representatives of the Thirty-Six Zaibatsu, please come with me to the South China Sea to discuss plans."
Song Fengmu nodded hastily: "This is a proper plan."
…
That night!
Takeda Yoshitomo sent a flying eagle message to Yan Qi.
Tell everything that happened.
Early next morning!
Yoshitomo Takeda set off on a warship and rushed to the South China Sea.
Tokugawa Chenghiko followed him all the way with a mighty army of 200,000.
Thirty-six chaebol representatives were also among them.
…
Three days later.
Yan Qi received Yoshitomo Takeda's Flying Eagle Letter.
Open it and take a look.
Smile slightly.
"Haha, Tokugawa Seuhiko actually became a follower? Interesting, so interesting!"
