"Can you all listen to what I have to say?"
In the courtyard, Sanjo Kōrai suddenly stood up and bowed slightly to the ministers in the courtyard.
"Musashi Mamoru's son Sakyo Susumu is a leader among the generation of young samurai. His martial prowess has been widely spread in the kinai, and he is also praised by the leader of Hosokawa Palace!"
"The Omi Kyogoku family is a famous samurai family, and all the heads of the past generations have been on good terms with us, your ministers! Today, Musashi Shoten went to the capital in person to propose marriage for his son. How can we, your ministers, just deal with it casually?"
After hearing Sanjo Kōrai's words, all the ministers present could not help but nod secretly. Kyogoku Takahiro, who was sitting next to Kujo Aimeichi, also cast a grateful look at Sanjou Korai, secretly saying that the money he lent to Sanjo Mika some time ago was not in vain.
At this time, Sanjo Konorai continued, "The Kyogoku family is a four-level family. In terms of family structure, although it is not suitable to marry the daughter of Kujo, Ichijo, etc., it is suitable for the families of Qinghua and ministers!"
"Today, my family wants to marry Musashimori, but I wonder if all the gentlemen here can do it to save face?" Sanjo's words immediately attracted the attention of the ministers here. Unexpectedly, the Kyogoku family has received the favor of the Sanjo family!
Sanjo Konorai is the son of the right minister Sanjo Mika. The Sanjo family he belongs to is also called the *** Sanjo family (mainly to distinguish it from the Sanjo Nishi family, the Masachikacho Sanjo family and other branch families). The family status is second only to Shoseki. The Tsinghua family of the family.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Sanjo family is already at the top of the list among the ministers of Kyoto.
Although the Kyogoku family is indeed a famous samurai family, it has declined after all. It is said that the only land left under its control is Omi, which is less than ten thousand stone. Compared with some wealthy families in the countryside, it is not as good as the Sanjo family. What is wrong with the Sanjo family and wants to throw their own daughter into the fire pit? push?
Could it be that there is some hidden secret in this that we don’t know about?
After Sanjo Konorai finished speaking, before the other ministers could speak, Kyogoku Takahiro rushed up to him very excitedly, "Do you really mean what Gon Dai Nagonden said?"
"It's absolutely true!" Sanjo Kōrai touched his chin and said with certainty.
Happiness comes so suddenly!
Kyogoku Takahiro suddenly began to feel dizzy.
However, things did not progress as smoothly as it seemed, because the right minister Sanjo Mika, who was sitting in the first place on the right seat, was a little angry: "Mr. Korai, who do you want to marry Kyogoku to Kyogoku? Why didn't you discuss it with me in advance?"
Normally, a father will not call his son by his first name unless he is very angry.
By the way, even if it is a respectful title for others, I would not call him Mr. xx. For example, Lord Nobunaga, Lord Hideyoshi, Lord Shingen, etc. This is extremely disrespectful and humiliating to the person being addressed.
To express respect for others, you usually address them by official title, and those without official titles use generic names. For example, at this time, when Kyogoku Takahiro called Sanjo Mikao, he could never use the title Mikogoshi, but could only call him "Youfu Palace" (the right minister is the right prime minister of the Celestial Dynasty, so he called it Youfu Palace!)
"Father, I have three daughters. The eldest daughter, Aya, is over fourteen this year, which is the right age for marriage! Since Musashi is proposing today as my son, and I have a close personal relationship with Musashi, why not facilitate this matter?" Rai thought she had done the right thing, but she didn't know that in Sanjou Mika's eyes, it was actually childish!
"Hmph! Just follow me!"
"My lords, please wait a moment. I'll go and come back!" After saying that, Sanjou Mika pulled Sanjou Konorai into the side hall.
At this time, Jiutiao Jitong also hurriedly came out to smooth things over and greeted the ministers to continue eating and drinking. The ministers will naturally not be polite. They don't even have enough to eat on weekdays. Today, it's hard to have a good meal. Of course, it must be full first, otherwise it will be a big loss!
Kyogoku Takahiro felt quite cold at this moment. He originally thought that with his familiarity with the ministers and the reputation of Kujo Yutong, things would progress smoothly.
But judging from the various signs in the courtyard just now, it seems that he is a little speechless.
The high-ranking Sheguan family looked down upon the Kyogoku family at all, while the lower-ranked Tsinghua family also resisted. Although the remaining ministers and Habayashi families were very enthusiastic, they obviously came with the purpose of "making money", which somewhat made Kyogoku Takahiro feel a little unhappy.
As for the remaining famous figures, Kyogoku Takahiro looks down upon them.
Now, finally, Sanjo Kōrai has jumped out. With the respect of the Tsinghua family, the Kyogoku family can be said to be at a high level. But I didn't expect Sanjo Mika to suddenly come out and interfere, which was a bit uncomfortable.
"Father, there are many ministers here today, why are you so merciless?" Sanjo Kōrai said with some displeasure after entering the side hall and closing the door.
"Hmph!" Sanjo Mika snorted coldly, "That's because you made the decision without permission! Why don't you discuss such a big matter with me first?"
"My father is busy with court affairs all day long. If he still needs to worry about some small things, wouldn't it mean that his son is too incompetent???"
"Besides, Kyogoku Sakyoujin is a good match for Aya. Last time, the Kyogoku family borrowed a hundred strings from my family. If Aya marries Sakyoujin this time, the debt can naturally be written off!"
"Judging from the generosity of Musashi Mamoru in the past few days, the Kyogoku family should have some savings. This time we will marry Aya, and the gift money will be enough for us to renovate our former residence! In this way, we can move out of here and re-glorify our family name! Sanjo nori said with a smile on his face. From his words, it is not difficult to tell that his original intention of marrying his daughter to the Kyogoku family was actually to repay the money he borrowed from Kyogoku Takahiro some time ago.
What a weird thing!
"Confused!"
"How can you be so complacent with me? With such short-sightedness, how can I safely hand over the family property to you?" Sanjo Mika showed no mercy at all, "Today the Hosokawa family sent an envoy to the capital to marry the head of the family, Rokuro Hosokawa. Room! The gift is as much as a thousand dollars!"
"The most important thing is that the other party's first marriage partner is my family!"
"Fortunately, I came with you today. Otherwise, if you had just made the decision to marry Aya to Kyogoku without permission, wouldn't our family have lost both its people and money this time, and also missed the opportunity to make good friends with the Hosokawa family?"
"Now that Hosokawa Rokuro is in control of the country, the power is even greater when he taught Hosokawa Takakuni! If you choose Kyogoku instead of leaving the Hosokawa family, you are either confused or not!"
"Why didn't father tell me this earlier? I'm going to reject the Kyogoku family!" Sanjo Kōrai had already forgotten about the Kyogoku family at this time. The Kyogoku family is nothing compared to the Hosokawa family. There is simply no comparison, okay?
"Wait!"
Sanjou Mika shook her head and looked at Sanjoi Sanjoi with a speechless expression, "You have just promised to marry the Kyogoku family in public. If you go back on your word now, wouldn't it be a joke to all the ministers? Our Sanjou family will not be able to do it tomorrow." He is the laughingstock of the whole city!”
"What should we do?"
"Why don't you choose a girl from a common family?" Sanjo Kōrai asked tentatively.
"No, this girl must be our legitimate daughter!"
"But if Aya wants to marry into the Hosokawa family, where will there be any girls of the right age in my family?" Sanjo Mika only has one son, Sanjo Kourai, and another daughter has long been married to Prince Sadatushi Fushimi.
As for Sanjo Korai, he only has three daughters. The eldest daughter, Aya, is fourteen years old, the second daughter, Ajiu, is eleven years old, and the third daughter, Aling, is seven years old.
Sanjou Mika walked in place for a few steps, then suddenly stopped, "Let's marry Aku to Kyogoku!"
"Ajiu? Are you a little younger?"
"We will be twelve next year, so we can sign a marriage contract with Musashi Mamoru first and agree to hold the wedding next year!" Sanjo Mika suddenly smiled, "Although the Kyogoku family is not worth mentioning compared to the Hosokawa family, Baiguan Now that it has fallen into our hands, there is no reason to return it!"
"My family is getting old, but you are still young! Take the time to have more daughters. Even if you have no children in the future, the worst thing you can do is adopt one from a separate family! It is only right to have daughters!"
After saying that, Sanjou Mika shook her head and pushed open the door, leaving Sanjou Koilai there with a confused look on his face!
Is there such an operation?
ps. In history, the Sanjo family was a no-no, and after his death, his adoptive son inherited the name of the Sanjo family!
