Chapter 665 10. Monk Kuaichuan Is Smart
"It is better to take care of yourself. You can't travel back and forth and be exposed to the frost and snow."
Nagata Tokumoto, who came to see the doctor regularly, took back his hand on Koyata's wrist and advised Koyata with some persuasion. Koyata's stomach disease has been delayed for a long time, and there is never enough time to recover. Instead, it has become more serious.
"The affairs are complicated and I can't get away. Let's just put it off like this." Koyata didn't care too much.
To put it bluntly, there is no day that Yamanouchi can't leave Koyata, so this self-cultivation is just empty talk. After this consultation, Koyata will rush to Kai to prepare for the second annual tribute collection, and go to Kanto to "inspect" the situation of the daimyos.
Uesugi Kenshin is also in Koga Palace. No matter what, we have to talk face to face. The situation in Kanto needs to be analyzed in detail, and he needs to be explained clearly to avoid any grudges.
"It's hard to last long if you eat little and have many things to do. Dan Zheng is a man of talent and wisdom, how can he not understand this truth?" Nagata Tokumoto put away his things and stood up, and Kobayata followed him to see him off.
"It's okay, it's okay..." He said while making a gesture of invitation.
After seeing him off, Kobayata immediately ordered to prepare the luggage, pack the horse gear, and go to Kai.
"Doctor Nagata's words are sincere, we must listen to them." A Ling sat by the side and watched the doctor's sincere words, but she was always worried.
"Don't worry, I will die on my sickbed with my fame all my life!"
Kobayata's words were very impressive, which made A Ling laugh. Thirty years old is definitely not considered old in this era. Kobayata, who has been busy with military affairs, actually maintains a good work and rest schedule. Except for occasional stomach problems, there is really no sign of a short-lived ghost.
"By the way, have you thought of a nickname for the boy from your sworn brother's family?" Hosokawa Sai's son was born during the decisive battle in Oshinobi Castle.
"Call him Sonamomaru." Ayane naturally cares about her eldest brother's son.
"It would be nice if ours is a girl!" Kobayata gently hugged Ayane. He had been trying hard at home for two or three months, but Nagata Tokumoto took his pulse.
Congratulations! Dan Zheng!
"Changmaru is too noisy. If it's a girl, I'll have less worries." When Changmaru was born, Ayane suffered a lot for her first child, but now she is much better with the second child. And judging from the current situation, Kobayata may have the opportunity to accompany the birth throughout the whole process.
As for having a daughter, the two of them tacitly agreed that they would definitely get engaged to his eldest cousin Hosokawa Sonamomaru.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'm not often at home. This trip to Kai will take another half a month."
"You men are busy with the world, what can we do as a little girl?" A Ling is not an unreasonable woman, but she still has some emotions. Xiao Pingtai is not at home for half a year a year, and he is busy like a top at home.
Every day, the couple will sit together and chat and laugh after Xiao Pingtai comes back from work, and they don't even say a few words to each other. If it were someone else, I don't know what would happen.
"My dear wife!" A Ling married Xiao Pingtai, who was thirty years old, in her teens. She already owed her a lot, and there was no way to compensate her properly.
The two of them snuggled for a while, and A Ling gently broke away, opened the box, and packed up the clothes and socks for Xiao Pingtai.
Originally, it was said that Xiao Pingta would go alone, but Kaikawa Shoki actually brought Yamauchi Taro and his friends to go, saying that they would treat it as a trip. This time, the situation in Kai was no longer dangerous, and it was thought that it would not be a big problem to bring all the old and young people with them, so there were more burdens in the team.
Originally, according to Kaikawa Shoki's intention, they walked there. Although the old monk was over 60 years old, he was in good health and ate everything with relish. He walked no slower than Kobayata, a samurai who had been in the army for many years.
But there were a lot of children, and Kobayata was in a hurry to collect taxes, so he could not delay, so he finally compromised and took the ox cart. Suzy also prepared a lot of bags for the children. Even if the other children were not her own, she saw them every day and raised them by her side. This maternal brilliance was not much different, and none of them were treated unfairly.
Yamauchi Yoshio, Matsushita Toramatsu (Ii Naomasa), Ogasawara Yukimatsumaru (Ogasawara Hidemasa), Kasuga Gensuke (Kasuga Mototada), Asahina Taro (Asahina Tairi), a row of children, really followed.
"Master, why do you want to take His Highness and his attendants out?" Xiaoping rarely rides an ox cart, and he feels uncomfortable in his butt.
"Your Highness is smart, and those attendants are not ordinary people. Studying hard may not help them become more intelligent. It's better to follow Danzheng. It's good to go to Kai to collect annual tributes and see the world."
The old monk can see clearly that Yamauchi Taro and this group of children, big and small, are not weak chickens. Each of them will leave a name in history, or be infamous for thousands of years.
In terms of basic wisdom, they are definitely far superior to ordinary children. For example, Matsushita Toramatsu started reading military books and strategies early, and the future shogunate boss has already begun to show his talent.
According to Kaikawa Shoki, he has also figured out the way of the world. It is easy to find a big-headed and thick-necked man who can chop people with a knife, but as a daimyo and a lord, you have to learn to handle mundane affairs.
You have to conquer the world on horseback, and you have to rule the world on foot!
The dawn of unification has appeared in this world. Those who cannot rule the world will be finished sooner or later. If you don't train now, it will be too late to train them later.
"In the eyes of the master, who is the best among these companions?" Xiao Pingtai couldn't see the ox cart behind him. The gauze curtain blocked the sunlight and his vision.
"Well! Each has his own strengths, and they are all good children!" The old monk didn't buy Xiao Pingtai's trick.
"Hahahahaha... The master is still playing a guessing game with a fool like me."
"If you say that Danzheng is a fool, then everyone in this world is just an ordinary person."
The two chatted back and forth, and the realm of bragging is here. It seems that they chatted for a long time, but nothing was actually discussed, but they were still very happy.
The happiness of men is so ordinary and simple!
The carriage finally entered Kai, and Konishihara Saemon sent more than a dozen riders to come and guide them, but it was actually unnecessary. Murakami Yoshimitsu led the first squad of the hatamoto, and Ogasawara Nagamasa led the ninth squad of the hatamoto, with more than 800 elite soldiers. If they encountered something casually, they would not even touch Yamauchi Taro.
"I heard last time that Danzheng became a monk of the Nanman Sect?" The old monk asked this question with some meaning.
"Yes!"
"I heard that a shipyard is being built at Hamamatsu Castle?"
"Huh? How did you know that, Master?"
It has been two years since Kobayashi ordered the former Hamamatsu Port Magistrate Kobayashi Motoharu to set up a ship repair shop and a shipbuilder training center at Totomi Beach. Finally, the effect is seen, and several capable people have been trained.
Now he has officially ordered Kobayashi Motoharu to open a shipyard at Hamamatsu Port, preparing to try to imitate the Chinese sailing ships that are convenient on the East Asian routes and the European sailing ships suitable for ocean voyages.
"Your Highness Taro always brings some published judgments to ask. In my opinion, the reason why Dan Zheng became a monk in the Nanman Sect is not just what everyone knows."
Oh no!
I didn't expect that the first one to see through it was this monk who said, "Why do you need mountains and rivers to meditate on Zen? Extinguish the fire in your heart and cool yourself down." He usually doesn't ask, but his wise eyes have seen through everything!
