Swallow Back

According to his understanding, the relationship between monarch and ministers under the feudal system is very complicated.

In the territory of Fusang, the senior samurai naturally hoped that their retainers would listen to orders all day long, not only to fully squeeze the labor force, but also to effectively monitor the movement and prevent problems that could not be solved.With the development of the times, the policy of "separation of scholars and peasants" and "residence of retainers" finally came into being.

But the thoughts of the lower-level warriors are complicated. Of course, some people are willing to brush their presence in front of the lord all day, in order to gain favor, and more want to go home more and take good care of their one-acre and three-point fields.Who doesn't like the taste of the head snake when the sky is high and the emperor is far away, behind closed doors?

This creates a contradiction.

Therefore, during the Warring States Period, the actual situation was determined by power and the right to speak.

A strong lord can fully restrain his retainers, making them like an arm, sending them at will, and at the same time, he has the ability to make compensations to appease the emotions of his subordinates.

And weak lords who neither have enough prestige nor give resources to compensate will inevitably have low control and can only sit back and let their retainers do their own thing.

Kinoshita Tokichiro has just been sent to Kita Omi by Oda Nobunaga, and he has not yet established a firm foothold.

Therefore, his control over the little lords is currently quite loose.

It is necessary to fight, or there are other reasons, only to send someone to notify the assembly.

Free movement is usually allowed.

The mobilization lasted only seven or eight days before it ended, and the assembled troops were all disbanded.

This was the norm in the Warring States Period.

The people of Omi, who were originally ruled by the Asai family, were also accustomed to the loose monarch and minister system.

But behind Tokichiro Kinoshita is Oda Nobunaga after all, a figure who has crossed the times and promoted centralization and unity.Most likely this won't last long.

I don't know what means that guy will use to deal with the people of Omi?Soft or hard, or both?

- and so on.

On the way home, Liu Yun tries to think about the current situation from a political point of view.

After all, he is now the lord of the Omi Sasaki family!

It is said that there is a thousand stones in the territory, and further bonuses will be given soon. In any case, it should be regarded as a middle-level person, and it is not suitable for people who only know swords.

It was too late in the rush ahead, and now I finally have time to think about it.

However, Liu Yun was riding on the horse, thinking about it, and after deliberation, he could only come up with some big and specious concepts.

There is absolutely no way to get any practical and effective guidelines.

After thinking about it again, as a dignified traveler, I didn't have a farming system or material wormhole, and I didn't master the craftsmanship of steel and glass making, and I didn't remember the details of the historical process.The only thing that can be considered a "gold finger" is the physique and martial arts talent far beyond ordinary people.

In the short term, it seems that the combat power route must be taken.

Without this martial arts, there is really nothing to impress Oda Nobunaga, Kinoshita Tokichiro and the others.

Even if you can call things like "Le Shi Lezu", "Separation of Scholars and Farmers", and "Knife Hunting Order", but you don't know the specific implementation rules, and you don't know the cause and effect of the general environment, how can you be convincing?

So I came to the conclusion that although I came from the civilized era, a highly educated traveler, at present, I can only rely on recklessness to gain a foothold in this barbaric and backward era.

sorrow.

But vaguely, I feel an inexplicable sense of refreshment. What's the matter?

Is it true that deep down in his heart he really likes reckless?

Is it only because he was in a civilized society in his previous life that he was restrained in his temper?

……

Starting from Hengshan City, Liu Yun took his entourage and returned to Sasaki Village, which took just over an hour.

Of course, the current situation will not be any different from the last time.It is still a situation of poverty and despair.

But whether it was psychological or not, Liu Yun always felt that the village had regained some vitality.

As he drove his horse closer, he encountered a few villagers carrying pitchforks.

Liu Yun waved his hand and said, "No need to be too polite."

Those people quickly got up and walked back, running around to tell: "Be careful, your lord is back!"

Hearing these words, Liu Yun had a different feeling.

Although the attitude of the people was obviously more fear than respect, at least they fully accepted the position of the new lord.

After a while, Mrs. Iori walked out of the Sasaki Pavilion with bare feet in clogs and white clothes with small sleeves.At the door and facing Liu Yun's eyes, he immediately bowed his head and bent his knees, bending down like a mimosa, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, come in and rest!"

This soft and sweet voice is very comfortable in the ear, as if it has the effect of washing away the tiredness of the body.

Looking up, it was faintly visible, the water in Iori's eyes was flowing, and a small smile appeared in Sakura's mouth.

For a moment, Liu Yun really felt that he had been away from the house for a long time, and he couldn't help but have a different feeling in his heart.

After a while, Uncle Xinghe and Junior Brother Suifeng also rushed over.

The two monks were full of dust, and their faces were a little worried, not knowing why they were in a hurry.

Seeing them, Liu Yun was supposed to be more cordial, but his emotions settled down.

I no longer have that subtle feeling of ambiguity when I saw Mrs. Iori.

This subtle feeling is still greedy in essence, but it is not just the act three inches below the navel, there are more complicated factors in it.

As a modern person who came from the civilized world of the 21st century, he should have a spiritual goal that transcends ordinary material desires, and should pursue the high-level pleasure of combining soul and body.

How can it be so vulgar?

Taking advantage of the emptiness and bullying others, even if the beast's desire succeeds, what's the point?

It's actually quite interesting to think about...

No, no, because of the noble character of the transmigrators, of course it is boring!

Liu Yun greeted Mrs. Iori very calmly and naturally, without any ulterior motives in her heart.

After entering the door, Liu Yun simply said: "I was ordered to send military funds, and there is no danger."

No more talk.

Unconsciously, I don't want to act like a rhetoric in front of Iori.

But to retell the experience would be like boasting anyway.

So, when Iori asked "Is the journey going smoothly", Liu Yun waved Qingtianfang to answer.

Of course, most of the people in the village didn't know the details of this monster, and they still thought it was just a big servant named "A Qing".

Qingtianfang was upright and scheming, so he opened his mouth to talk about his encounters with Imai Monghisa, as well as Kotengu, and his two battles with the Demon Ninja.

It's just that I don't know whether it was intentional or not, and I didn't mention the name "Hieizan Enryakuji Temple".

Mrs. Iori covered her mouth and exclaimed repeatedly. Finally, she took a deep breath. She bent down to sit on the ground, and said to Liu Yun, "Thank you for your hard work!"

The same sentence, said a second time, will have a completely different feeling.

Iori's eyes widened, staring at Liu Yunyun for a moment, then quickly moved away.

In her tone and words and deeds, she seemed to have reverence for Liu Yun's ability, but she was also a little timid because of the unfamiliarity.

Probably never got along with a man who is really capable but doesn't boast.

On the side, Uncle Xinghe was still worried, and he forced a smile and added: "You will be shocked when you see Liu Yun's martial arts for the first time. Madam, you will gradually get used to it."

Junior Brother Suifeng was sullen and silent.

Even farther away, Eguchi Sukezaemon heard it with raptures, and he thought it was a great honor.

As for Kurodafang, he frowned and smiled wryly when he saw Qingtianfang who pretended to be a retainer of Sasaki.

Qingtianfang talked excitedly for a long time, and finally remembered a key thing: "In Hengshan City, Kinoshita-sama said that he would give the Sasaki family an additional [-] stones! If you bring back the head of the man in black. It does work, add an extra [-] stone!"

When Eguchi Sukezaemon heard this, he hurriedly leaned over and asked, "How much land is five hundred stones?"

Qingtianfang thought for a while and replied, "It seems--I remember, Master Beesuka said that Sasaki Village is about a thousand stones now."

Eguchi Sukezaemon was instantly elated, dancing and laughing: "Isn't that a big piece of land? Lord Liuyun is amazing! Lord Liuyun is amazing!"

The others around were also delighted.

Only Mrs. Iori was surprised at first, then a little uneasy when she heard the news, and then she smiled, and bowed to Liu Yun again and said, "Thank you for your hard work..."

Liu Yun saw this in his eyes, but he neither understood nor thought much about it.He just changed the subject and asked, "What's going on inside the collar?"

Iori quickly cleaned up her emotions and replied respectfully: "Everything in the village was fine. The people knew that the new lord was confirmed, and they could do things with peace of mind. It's just..." She said this with a look of embarrassment on her face. With apology: "The construction of a temple for Master Xinghe and Master Suifeng encountered setbacks. I am disappointed by your incompetence."

Hearing this, Suifeng understood why the uncle and junior brother were worried just now, and asked directly, "What's the ups and downs? Is it a lack of people or money?"

"That's not the case..." Iori explained carefully: "The money, goods and labor are enough. It's just that there is a very powerful 'Guangzheng Temple' nearby. When I heard about this, I sent people to obstruct it and did not allow us. Build a temple privately."

Wen Yan Liuyun frowned: "Why is this?"

Yizhi clasped her hands in front of her chest and abdomen, and answered cautiously: "My concubine guessed, probably because, in more than 20 nearby villages, weddings and funerals are customarily held in Guangzheng Temple. Incense money...if we build a new temple..."

"I see." Liu Yun nodded and asked directly, "How many monks and soldiers are there in Guangzheng Temple?"

Iori was startled, stayed for a moment, hesitated and whispered: "There may not be many monk soldiers, but behind this temple... there is a lot of involvement behind it."

Liu Yun didn't even think about it and continued to ask, "Why is it involved so much?"

Iori bowed his head and said, "Guangzheng Temple, belonging to the Tiantai Sect, is the last temple of Mount Hiei Enryakuji Temple. My concubine heard that this Mount Hiei Enryakuji Temple has close contacts with many dignitaries, and there is no big name in the world who dares to disrespect them. …”

Hearing these familiar words, Liu Yun suddenly laughed: "That's just right, I'm just looking for trouble with this Hieishan Enryakuji Temple!"

When Iori heard the words, she turned pale with fear and murmured, "This is a famous temple for a thousand years..."

"What famous temple!" Liu Yun scolded disdainfully: "It's the famous temple!"

Chapter 20 Convincing People with Virtue

The last temple means a subordinate temple.

Koshoji Temple is a subordinate temple of Mount Hiei Enryakuji Temple, so to clean up Koshoji Temple is to slap the face of Mount Hiei Enryakuji Temple.

Hearing that Liu Yun wanted to punch Hieizan Enryakuji in the face, the others were surprised, but they didn't think much of it.

They only know that this temple has a history and a card face, but they don't know how old it is and how big the card face is.

Only Iori was stunned and panicked.

As the daughter of the Huakaiyuan family in Kyoto, even if she is not taken seriously, she has been in contact with several social occasions of the imperial class, and vaguely knows some things about the royal family, public officials, scholars, and artisans.

The monks in the Enryakuji Temple of Mount Hiei are dedicated to the high-level missionary route, and they like to get close to the dignitaries who control public opinion the most.
