Chapter 509 8. Uncle's Words of Loyalty to the Emperor and Ministers

Hosokawa Harumiya and Hosokawa Sainyo also came to wait for news. The three men had never given birth to a child, so they sat there anxiously. Especially Koheita and Hosokawa Sainyo had never even seen a child being born.

As the saying goes, even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs run. But sometimes it is useless to prove that you have seen pigs run. Hosokawa Harumiya was just as clueless. His son was almost 30 years old, and he was just as anxious to listen to the news at the door.

"The eldest brother has given birth to my brother for more than 20 years. Why is he still so anxious?"

"Koheita, you don't understand. Giving birth to a woman is very dangerous. If it's not done well, it may be unexpected."

"How long did my brother give birth?" Koheita glanced at Hosokawa Sainyo.

"Your brother gave birth for almost four hours. It was so difficult. I still remember his mother's screams at that time."

"It's been four hours, why is there still no news." Hosokawa Sainyo calculated the time.

Hosokawa Harumiya and Koheita looked like you ask me, who should I ask? They couldn't go in to see it. They were men of different surnames, how could they enter the delivery room.

"Tanzheng, have a bowl of rice soaked in tea first." Chen San brought three bowls of rice from outside into the house.

"Eat a few bites first to fool around, maybe it will take a night." Xiao Pingtai handed two bowls to his father-in-law and brother-in-law.

The bowl contained steamed barley rice, which was cold and had a lot of bonito flakes on it. It was made by Takeda Harunobu in Shimizu and sold in the East. It tasted very good.

Chen San brought in another pot of hot tea. The tea leaves before Qingming Festival were all sent by Asahina Taicho. After brewing, there was a faint fragrance.

Soon, the only sound in the house was the sound of slurping rice soaked in tea. The three people were also hungry, busy all day. Smelling the fragrance of tea and rice, their appetites were aroused.

"Chen San, you will send rice balls to Aji and Nanaki under the city later, and send them back immediately if there is any news." Xiao Pingtai thought that the two under the city had not eaten yet.

"By the way, not only whether the baby is born, but also ask in detail, and it's best to ask clearly at every stage." Hosokawa Harumiya held the bowl and instructed thoughtfully.

After cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks and refilling the teapot with water, Tatsuzo carried the things out of the room. Nanaki's mother brought in another plate of rice dumplings, saying it was a snack.

"Does Tanzheng want to prepare a quilt?" Seeing that the baby couldn't be born for a while, she couldn't just sit here all the time.

"No, go and rest, I'm fine." After all, she was Nanaki's mother. Although she helped in the kitchen at Koheita's house, she couldn't really be used as a servant.

"Then Tanzheng, just shout if there's anything."

"Yeah."

After the people left, there were only three people left staring at each other. Uncle Tsuna, who was still awake, came out. He was a nobleman with a certain level of literature and art, and he couldn't talk to the uneducated samurai. After Yamauchi Yoshiharu died, there was one less person who could brag to him. Therefore, the days in Yamanouchi were quite empty. Seeing the three people sitting there, he came out to say hello.

"Uncle, aren't you going to rest yet?" Kobayata stood up and poured a cup of tea for Uncle Tsunayoshi.

"Aren't you all resting too?" He took the tea and smelled it. He was very satisfied with the Mingqian tea.

"Kingwu has never been appointed as Huangmen Shilang." Hosokawa Harumiya also talked about it.

"I haven't returned to the capital for the past two years, so naturally there is no chance."

"I don't know what's going on in Luoyang." Kobayata remembered that Ashikaga Yoshiei had been announced, and maybe he could really go to the capital to take office.

"The current public office is better said to be a puppet of the traitor Miyoshi Matsunaga. I don't know how difficult it is!" Hosokawa Cainu also said something.

"The officials in Luojing are also forced. The traitors are rampant and there is nothing they can do."

"The situation in the world is really confusing." Kobayata took over Yamanouchi Yoshiharu's intelligence network. If Kobayata didn't know, the situation in the world would be a mess now.

"I don't understand the principle of military families competing for victory, but I know a little about the principle of governing a country."

"Please speak." Hosokawa Harumiya made a gesture of invitation.

"There is only one word."

"Loyalty!"

"Loyalty?" The three people said in unison.

"The way of loyalty is not limited to the loyalty of the ministers to the master, but also the loyalty of the master to the ministers.

The king regards the ministers as grass, and the ministers regard the king as an enemy. Nothing is more like this!

Ministers should be loyal and brave, and not afraid of difficulties. Kings should also regard their ministers as brothers and sisters, and take good care of them. The king and ministers get along well, each keeps loyalty, the family is stable, and they work together, which is the foundation of kingship."

I never expected that Uncle Tsunayoshi was actually a man with ideas. This idea has already echoed to a certain extent with the ideas of many thinkers in the late Ming Dynasty.

"Just like when the former prime minister was here, the three of you were diligent and brave. How did the prime minister treat you? How did you repay the prime minister?"

Although all this is based on the principle that the master is virtuous and the ministers are wise, it does not consider what happens when the master is not virtuous, nor does it consider what happens when the ministers are disloyal. It is just a perfect situation, but it does make sense.

"There are also unworthy kings!" Before Koyata opened his mouth, Hosokawa Saimiya suddenly asked this question.

Koyata and Hosokawa Harumiya's hearts jumped violently. Why do you ask such a fierce question!

"It's like Hojo Sagami invading the Kanrei and the Seigaku, which is a great rebellion. It's like Miyoshi repairing and oppressing the public office, and being treacherous and usurping the throne!"

It turned out that he was talking about these people. Koyata breathed a sigh of relief. From the perspective of the guardian of the feudal order, these people are indeed not good things. If they were caught by Hosokawa Saimiya, she would definitely want to cut them into pieces.

"People like this can't escape the word death! Everything should be righteous, and those who do evil will not last long." Uncle Tsunayoshi rarely said such hard words.

"Unreasonable cannot prevail over reasonable! Reason cannot prevail over law! Law cannot defeat power! But power cannot prevail over heaven's law!"

"I've learned!" This answer is in line with Hosokawa Saijo's idea. The way of the world's military families lies in Ashikaga, and he supports the Yamanouchi family that occupies the way.

"Dan Zheng Dan Zheng! There's news!"

The four of them looked out the door together. It was the voice of Chen San who went to deliver food. It should be that Suzyonori gave birth.

"Quick, quick, quick! How is the situation!" Hosokawa Harumiya asked first.

"It is said that the head has appeared and it will be born smoothly soon! And there is no danger!"

As long as the head comes out, there should be no big problems for a normal birth. After nearly ten hours of labor, it was finally born. It was really not easy!

"Please go again and continue to inquire." Xiao Pingtai asked Chen San to go back and watch.

"No need to go! It's a little princess!"

Aji almost walked in at the same time as Chen San, less than a minute apart, very close.

"Everything is going well?"

"Mother and daughter are safe."

Aji stood in the corridor and used a ladle to drink water from the jar. He obviously ran all the way back and drank three ladlefuls.

"It's a princess, very good, very good!"

It's really good, there will be no more troubles, and when she grows up, she can also win another son-in-law for the Yamanouchi family, and everyone will be happy!

"Dan Zheng Dan Zheng!"

Why is Qigui back too?
