Mr. Xianggaku stood up and said, "Everyone, we fought back in order to obtain happiness. But now, after only a few years, do we want to rely on hegemony to bully others like the previous shogunate? I'm really surprised. There are thousands of ways to happiness, but if it is obtained by depriving others of happiness, it will no longer be happiness!”

"Japan, you don't need to rely on aggression to make the people happy. As the pillars of the country, you shouldn't be so incompetent!"

Everyone bowed their heads under the momentum of Xianggaku Zongsan and apologized one after another.

"Okay, I believe that your hearts are all good, and you all want the country to be prosperous and strong. But now the Yingluo government has just been established, everything is difficult at the beginning, and impatience is even worse, take one step at a time, and go on steadily! "

"Yes!"

This concludes the meeting.

Jian Xin was already standing in front of the house at this moment.

Although he is in a high position, his home is very ordinary, like an ordinary house, with nothing special.

He opened the door, and Ba was sitting in front of the loom spinning. When he saw him coming back, he was quite surprised: "Today, it seems to be a little early."

Jian Xin did not speak, but stepped forward to hug Ba, buried his face in the other's shoulder, and smelled the faint fragrance of white plums on the other's body.

Ba was stunned for a moment, then touched his hair with a smile, and asked, "What happened?"

"It's nothing." Jian Xin shook his head. He didn't want Ba Ye to be bothered, but said, "I just want to hug you."

Ba didn't ask any more, but patted Jian Xin's back, humming an unknown song.

The sun fell from the window, shone on the two of them, and pulled out long shadows.

It was exactly the same as when I was in Otsu.

A girl of thirteen or fourteen walked out of the back room, and when she saw the two hugging each other, she screamed in fright and shrank back.

Jian Xin and Ba were stunned for a moment at the same time, and then let go of each other with a chuckle.

Yes, it is exactly the same, but the baby who once urinated on Kenshin is now a young girl in her cardamom age.

Times will belong to them.

Chapter 78 The Rise of Militarism

For ordinary people, today's good days are the end of happiness.

But the government, which is the administrator of the state, does not think so.

Westerners are still pressing on their heads.Although Japan was so small and mountainous, it was thrown aside after requesting the opening of several ports, but the various treasonous treaties signed by the shogunate were still drawing the blood and sweat of the people bit by bit.

Restoration is far from over!

How to become powerful has become the most difficult problem now.

The clear path ahead is the militarism of the Western powers.

After all, the strength of the other party can be directly seen, and many high-ranking officials and ministers are also very inclined to this kind of proposition.

However, he was pressed down by Sagaku Zongsan.

There is no reason for being too tall, but he knows that it is wrong to do so!

It may make the country stronger, but wrong is wrong, and even the gold, silver and land that are looted cannot change this fact.

It is said that he has become mature, but sometimes he is as pedantic as he was back then.

The wrong thing cannot be done, do you need a reason?

It does not need!

Therefore, many people in the government were dissatisfied with him.

But his prestige made the other party not dare to act rashly.

It wasn't until one day that he suddenly vomited blood in a coma during a meeting, which changed things.

Today, it is the spring of 1878.

Historically, he should have died in 1868.

It took the god of death ten years to realize that he had missed a person.

Xiangle is seriously ill, bedridden, and consulted by many famous doctors, but he is helpless!

The news spread all over Japan in an instant, and the people were all worried and set up incense burners at home to pray for a speedy recovery for the leader who ushered in a new era.

But some people are worried, and naturally some people are happy.

For example, "Oriental Bismarck" Toshinori Okubo!

"The obstacle is about to disappear!" He drank to the moonlight, only to feel that the drink was getting better and better: "The people of the past will pass, and the future of Japan will be created by me!"

Overnight, militarism took hold on Japanese soil.

Taxes have increased, construction has slowed, everything has to make way for the military, and the people are miserable.

As the Minister of the Army, Jian Xin wanted to resist, but he was good at hacking people, but the administration could only be said to be second-rate. After several battles, he was marginalized.

"Damn!" Kenshin slammed the table: "Okubo Toshinori continues like this, doesn't he want to return to the turbulent era at the end of the curtain?"

Ba lightly tugged at his sleeve: "You scared the children."

Kenshin was stunned for a moment, looked up, and only saw Kaoru, Sojiro, and Yukiyoen, looking straight at him.

He smiled wryly, waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I shouldn't have said this at the family dinner."

Xiaoxun leaned over and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, now that you're down, don't think about it too much, just rest. I just have time now. Do you want to go to the mountain to see Grandpa Bigu? Let him teach me how to burn pottery!"

Jian Xin smiled and nodded: "Alright."

But Ba nodded Xiaoxun's forehead and said, "I heard that your recent grades are not very good. If you fail the exam this time, you will stay at home obediently for me, and you are not allowed to go anywhere, do you hear? "

Xiaoxun's face immediately collapsed: "Hey, why is this? Sojiro, Ayuan, please help me and say good things!"

Yukiyo Yuan and Sojiro shrugged together, expressing their helplessness.

The family banquet was carried out in "laughter and laughter".

After the meal, the women were clearing the dishes while the men chatted in the moonlight.

"Feicun, I want to join the army, you help me arrange it." For so many years, Xue Daiyuan did not want to call Jian Xin "brother-in-law".

Jian Xin was stunned and asked strangely, "What are you doing in the army?"

"Of course it's something you can't do!" Xue Daiyuan replied arrogantly: "You are too cowardly, and the only one who can face the jackal is the jackal!"

"you want……?"

"That's right! It's just what you think!" Xue Daiyuan's eyes were full of madness: "What bastard, Okubo Toshinori, such a bastard wants to change the world, first ask Laozi if he agrees!"

"Why are you suddenly... Aren't you always dismissive of the new government?"

"Hmph, the new government or something, I am still disdainful." After Xue Daiyuan finished speaking, she looked at the two busy figures in the room, and her tone became gentle: "But, those two women like it. Of course, we can't let people destroy it at will!"

Jian Xin was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Okay, no matter why, in short, thank you, I will arrange it for you."

"Hey, I don't need your thanks." After Yukiyoen said 'Aojiao', he pulled Soujiro again: "Seta, come with me!"

"No, no, I don't have to, I don't want to conflict with people." Sojiro waved his hands randomly and said with a look of horror.

Yukino pushed him to the ground in a huff, and said with hatred: "Bastard, you are the famous Heavenly Sword, why are you so cowardly?!"

Sojiro smiled and muttered: "Can't everyone sit down and talk, why do you have to fight and kill?"

"Sometimes, some things, you have to decide between right and wrong!" Xue Daiyuan said fiercely, with blue veins all over his forehead, and then slammed out the door: "When I see you, I will be angry, I will leave. Now! Feicun, let me know when there is news!"

Ba and Xiaoxun heard the sound and walked out, only to see the back of Yukino Yuki leaving.

Xiaoxun walked over and helped Soujiro: "Are you making A Yuan angry again?"

Sojiro smiled bitterly: "Probably."

Xiaoxun is also helpless: "Really, your personality has changed so much in recent years, you don't even look like a martial arts practitioner."

"Really? No?" Sojiro rubbed his head with an unresponsive look.

Xiaoxun also doesn't know where to complain.

A few years ago, he was still a peerless swordsman who saw injustice and drew his sword to help, but in recent years, he has felt a different person, always giving people the feeling of being stupid and easy to bully.

However, no matter how you say it, it is the man you are in love with, no matter how much you change, that kind heart will not change!

"Come on, go to my room and I'll show you something."

Xiaoxun took Soujiro and drilled into the house, but was blocked by Ba.

Ba said flatly: "It's getting late, Soujiro must be very tired, right?"

Sojiro had cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly broke free from Xiaoxun's hand, nodded and said, "Yes, yes! I should also say goodbye, I am truly honored today!" After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply, then turned around and left.

"Hey, hey!" Xiaoxun stomped her feet angrily behind her: "What a coward!"

"What a coward, I said that you are too bold!" Ba tapped the other's forehead and said, "I dare to invite a man into the boudoir so late, I don't remember teaching an unrestrained daughter!"

"It hurts!" Xiaoxun said while dodging: "What is the era, equality between men and women, Mom, your thinking is too backward!"

"I'm backward?" Ba gritted his teeth: "When I raised you with shit and urine, I didn't want you to say that I was backward! And as a woman's upbringing, I will never be backward in any era! Follow me! Come in, I'm going to give a good lecture today!"

"Don't!" Xiaoxun was dragged by Ba, and she kept reaching out to Jianxin and shouting: "Help, Dad, help!"

Jian Xin looked at all this with a smile, and poured another glass of his own.

The wine is indeed getting better and better.

……

Sojiro Seta returned to his parents and lit a candle.

Under the dim light, his expression was extremely solemn.

Kikuichi character was removed from the knife holder and held in a pair of sturdy hands.

"Okubo Toshinori..."

The sword was unsheathed, reflecting a pair of sharp eyes.

The eyes of a peerless swordsman.
