my weird life

Chapter 440 Guardian General (22)

One after another, requests came out of Su Wu's mouth.

There was no sound in the hall.

When Yuan Lai first heard Su Wu's request, he could still pretend to be listening attentively, but later, his eyes were in a trance, and he opened his mouth slightly, looking at Su Wu opposite, not knowing what to say for a while.

"Your Excellency may not be clear..." Minamoto Yorima thought for a long time before frowning and said, "The Bizen Kingdom is under the control of the Taira clan, not under the control of the Genji clan.
I can recognize your Excellency as the 'Guardian General of the Hoki Kingdom'. As for the title of 'General Guardian of the Bizen Kingdom', I can't help you.

As for Master An Gang,

He must stay in Genji, on this point, I am sorry that I cannot agree to your request. "

"Genji asked 'Azuna Sword Forging Institute' to cast supreme swords,
Craftsman An Gang was not the only one who contributed to this supreme sword that was forged.

I cooperate with An Gang,

Only then did this sword come out successfully. "Su Wu said slowly, "Your Excellency kept Master An Gang in Genji, just because he was afraid that he would forge a superior sword again to benefit the enemy.

But if you keep An Gang here, there is no guarantee that you will not prevent me from leaving because of my joint cooperation with him, and imprison me in Genji's mansion.

Therefore, if Your Excellency refuses to let An Gang leave with me,

I can only think that your sincerity is insufficient,

That supreme sword cannot be handed over! "

As soon as Su Wu's words came out, the surrounding Genji's disciples and Genji military officials all burst into flames, wishing they could kill Su Wu on the spot!

Yuan Laigang's face was serious.

Just as he was frowning and saying nothing, Minamoto Yoshitomo suddenly said, "A craftsman's energy is limited after all. In a lifetime, there may only be a few opportunities to set foot in the 'Heaven-Man Sympathy' to forge supreme swords and swords." That's all.

uncle,

I thought it would be fine for Master An Gang to leave with Brother Zhuzhao.

As long as Master An Gang is willing to make a promise to me, Genji, he will never provide Hirashi and his allies with forging swords of 'top grade and above'. "

While Minamoto Yoshitomo was talking, he winked at Minamoto Yoshiko cryptically.

Yuan Laigang understood immediately,
He nodded and said: "In this case, as long as Master An Gang can make a promise, I am willing to let him leave the capital with Your Excellency."

"Okay." Su Wu continued, "Your Excellency can't allow me to use the name of 'Bizen Country Guardian General', please choose another country among the countries controlled by Genji, and designate me as the country guardian general!
The Hoki Kingdom is adjacent to the Owari Kingdom in the east, and this country is said to be guarded by Genji.

Give it to me,
Take me as the country's guardian general! "

"You just brought a supreme sword from Boqi Kingdom, do you think you have won the great war?!
To actually ask the master to give away the land of a country is simply not greedy enough to swallow an elephant! "Among the gathered Genji's retainers, a samurai with a big beard and a month-shaved head couldn't hold back his anger, and scolded Su Wu on the spot!

"If you do not agree,
The superior sword will not be returned. "Su Wu replied blankly.

"Tiger Bear Lord, don't get angry.

Don't neglect your guests! Yuan Laichao persuaded the bearded warrior, and turned to Su Wu, "Mr. Zhuzhao, please allow us to discuss one or two things." "

"Yes." Su Wu nodded in agreement.

after that,

Minamoto Yorito left his seat and gathered with Minamoto Yoshitomo instead.

There are many warriors around the two of them, surrounding them in the center.

The five onmyojis of Tsuchimikado's family who had released 'Qihime' to poison Su Wu earlier - Tsuchimikado Seimei took out the 'Silent Curse Seal' to cover up the conversation between Minamoto Yoritomo and Minamoto Yorimoka.

This kind of cursing and prohibition is useless to Su Wu.

But he was not interested in eavesdropping on what those two were saying.

——Anyway, no matter how they discuss, they will still agree in the end.

In a crowd of people,

Minamoto Yoritomo looked at Minamoto Yorimoka.

There are countless disagreements between the two in secret, and countless confrontations in private.

But they are Genji people after all,

Being in the same boat,
In order to prevent the big ship from capsizing, temporary cooperation is always indispensable.

"Uncle." Minamoto Yori bowed to Minamoto Yoshino, and said first, "I think, no matter how many requests Inoue Tokuyo makes today, we just have to fully agree!
Everything is for that supreme sword!

This knife can not only solve Genji's difficulties,

It is the turning point for Genji to overturn the situation and overwhelm Hirashi! "

"Even so, the land of a country should be promised to him,

Give him also An Gang who can forge the supreme sword,

Thousands of taels of gold that can recruit an unknown number of warriors were also given to him,
He also wants to seek the official position of the sixth official for the so-called eldest son of the Inoue family in the court——

Is that how it should be? "Yuan Laigang asked in a cold voice, he was obviously suppressing a huge anger.

Minamoto Yoritomo's expression remained unchanged, and he said firmly: "It's just a temporary promise to him, even gold, land, and even officials can be handed over to him on the spot!
However, after he handed over the supreme sword,
He is worthless to us,
How to handle it all depends on what my uncle wants!

Including that An Gang, uncle can decide whether to kill or stay at that time! "

Yuan Laigang hesitated after hearing the sound: "You said earlier that his cunning ability can accommodate many things. As for the shadow world, the promised land and name can be taken back afterwards.

If that gold is filled by him into the world of shadows,

How do we take it back? "

"Since the gold is difficult to recover, let's say that my family does not have so much gold.

Willing to pay for it with ore, horses and other things.

It can even be offset by the country.

Although he has a world of shadows that can accommodate foreign objects, I think the number of people he can accommodate is already his limit. He may not be able to accommodate many horses and ores. He needs to hire someone to transport these things back to the Hoki Kingdom

Then you can grab it back together! " Minamoto Yoritomo made a plan and said.

The two uncles and nephews discussed for a while,
Then, the military officials clustered around the two dispersed one after another,

Yuan Lai just stepped out of the formation,
After returning to the table opposite Su Wu, he sat down and said, "I can promise that you will be the guardian general of the Ozhang and Boqi kingdoms;

In the past few days, I will invite 'Inoue Kiyoshi' to be appointed as the official six hoki national guards in the court hall, and invite the emperor to promote 'Inoue Kiyoshi' to the palace so that he can enter the palace to participate in the public discussion—to promote 'Inoue Kiyoshi' to the palace , is also a little bit of my personal care. "

Unless there are more than six officials on Dongliu Island, they are not allowed to participate in the public discussion of the hall.

But even after reaching the sixth place, the imperial court will investigate them, and only when the inspection period expires can they be 'promoted to the palace' to participate in the public discussion.

It is indeed an additional reward that Minamoto Yoshio gave 'Inoue Kiyoshi' the qualification to be promoted to the temple.

He is the second "right minister" in the imperial court, and his status is almost the same as that of the "left minister", slightly lower than the "left minister", but his functions are actually exactly the same.

Above him, there is only the position of "Minister of the Taizheng" occupied by the Ping family.
And the vacant 'Regent Guanbai' position.

He wants to "promote the palace" for one person and promote him as the official six national guards, but there is no obstacle.

However, this eligibility for promotion is probably useless to 'Inoue Kiyoshi'.

Because there is no such person as "Inoue Kiyoshi" in the Inoue family of Hoki country,
Only 'Haruko Inoue'.

As a woman, it is impossible for Haruko to obtain a formal official position in the current Dongliu Island court. Even if she has an official position, she is only a female official in the emperor's harem, serving the emperor exclusively.

If she participates in the public discussion in the palace, I'm afraid it will cause an uproar.

Seeing Su Wu nodding slightly, Yuan Laigang continued, "Besides, Genji admits that the manors of the Hoki Kingdom are owned by the head of the Inoue family, Haruko Inoue, and she can distribute them on her own.

As for the 5000 taels of gold..."

At this time, Su Wu suddenly raised his hand and said: "Your Excellency only appointed me as the guardian general of the Boqi Kingdom and the Owari Kingdom.

Another country has not yet been allowed to be the guardian of 'Inoue Kiyoshi', and he will be the guardian general! "

greedy!

greedy!

Yuan Laigang looked at Su Wu's expressionless face, as if he saw a poisonous snake struggling to open its bloody mouth behind him!

He cursed in his heart,

He still had to maintain a calm expression on his face, after a little thought, without Minamoto Yoritomo's persuasion, he responded: "Just use Kiyoshi Inoue as the guardian general of the Dewa country!"

Anyway, these current titles, land,
And after the person on the other side returns the supreme sword, they will get it all back!
Let the other party be proud for a few days!

and,

Genji just promised that Su Wu and others will be the "guardian generals" of a certain country. This so-called "guardian general" is not an official position at all, but just a false name!
Even in the name of guarding the general,

Can you really protect a certain country?

But it still depends on your own military strength!
This was also an important reason why Genji could easily agree to Su Wu's request.

"Your Excellency is really refreshing!" Su Wu nodded happily.

Although only a false name,
But the teacher must also have a 'name'.

A false name is enough!
"As for Your Excellency's request for 5000 taels of gold to compensate the samurai of the Inoue family who died in battle..." Yuan Laigang pretended to ponder, and he pondered for a while, seeing that Su Wu didn't seem to answer the words at all, he had no choice but to open the mouth and said, "It's not true." To tell you the truth, it is difficult for Genji's family to come up with so much gold in a short while...

However, there are many surplus horses, swords and armor in the family.
I would like to present you with horses, swords, and armor worth 4000 taels of gold, plus 2000 taels of gold.

What do you think? "

"Since your Excellency is so forthright,
I would also like to take a step back. Su Wu nodded, "The remaining 2000 taels of gold can be exchanged for grain, dried meat, preserved fish and other food. Now that the Boqi Kingdom has just gone through turmoil and the people are in dire straits, food is much more useful than gold and silver!" "

"It's so good!"

Yuan Laigang was overjoyed!
Behind him, Minamoto Yoritomo had some ominous premonition.

He carefully observed Su Wu's expression,
From Su Wu's expressionless face, Minamoto Yoshitomo couldn't see the slightest clue.

After some deliberation,
Genji agreed to all of Su Wu's requests,

almost that night,

A lot of food has been counted out and stored separately in the warehouse near Su Wu's residence.

Bingjia and other items were also continuously transferred to the warehouse.

The fact that Genji established Suwu, Inoue Kiyoshi, Inoue Haruko and others as the guardian generals of various countries also formed a document, which was circulated to the countries under Genji's control in the next few days.
