Chapter 1171 Two Embarrassing Things(2/2)
Yiyin's face looked ugly, and he pursed his lips and nodded, indicating that he understood Nizi Katsuhisa's concerns.
In recent years, the diplomatic power of Spurland has been in the hands of Akechi Mitsuhide. It is her scope of power to negotiate with foreign countries and provide assistance.
Akechi Mitsuhide had other plans, and Kōfukuji Nagakaku and Hatakeyama Takamasa had no choice but to complain to Niko Katsuhisa.
But what can Katsuhisa Niko do? She is in charge of internal affairs. Diplomatic mediation is the power of Akechi Mitsuhide. To send troops to rescue, Akechi Mitsuhide must declare war and Maeda's interests can be fought.
This is Yiyin's problem.
He seems to have divided his power into three parts, allowing the three ministers of Konkishiba to check and balance each other. But Akechi Mitsuhide alone holds the key to the outside world. If she doesn't open the door, Nizi and Maeda can't control anything.
And Nizi Katsuhisa spoke coquettishly because Akechi Mitsuhide was reprimanded. Mentioning Akechi Mitsuhide's fault at this time would, in the eyes of outsiders, add insult to injury.
A trace of hatred flashed in Yiyin's eyes, letting that scheming fox take care of her old age was a real advantage to her. How many little tricks did this guy do behind my back, *her sister.
Yiyin is upright.
"Ni Ziji, don't have any scruples and tell me these two things in detail."
Nizi Shengjiu exclaimed, organized his thoughts, and spoke slowly.
"Ever since the Lord left Konki, the situation in the central and southern parts of Yamato has become turbulent.
Although Master Nagakaku of Kofukuji Temple has profound Buddhist teachings, his political skills are far less powerful than those of Tsutsui Junkei, and he gradually fell behind.
Tsutsui Junkei first went to Raku Kyoto, and was friends with Akechi Mitsuhide and Matsunaga Hide.
Then, she began to clean up the forces close to Kofukuji Temple in the Yamato nuns' homes.
Finally, in the name of protection, Kofukuji Temple was besieged."
Yiyin squinted his eyes and thought.
Matsunaga's Yodo Castle, Kofukuji Temple's Ashikaga Yoshiaki... Akechi Mitsuhide deliberately made friends with Matsunaga and Tsutsui, it must be a plan to kill the general.
Thinking about this, Yiyin became even more angry.
Tsutsui Junkei, a villain, took advantage of his absence to attack Kofukuji Temple in order to use Mitsuhide Akechi's protection to make things happen.
In the original Battle of Yamato, it was the logistical support of Kōfukuji Nagakaku that gave Yoshigan the confidence to attack Shikawa Ichin and rush to the aid of the Settsu shogunate army.
Akechi Mitsuhide colluded with Tsutsui Junkei and turned a blind eye to Kōfukuji Nagakaku's request for help. This was a slap in Yoshigan's face.
Yoshiun's character is benevolent and righteous. Master Nagakaku was of great help to him back then. However, at this time, the Shiba family refused to save Kofukuji Temple. How would outsiders view Yoshiun?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he asked coldly.
"What is the current situation of Kofukuji Temple? If Master Nagakaku encounters misfortune, I will unscrew Tsutsui Junkei's head."
Nizi Shengjiu was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something. He wanted to laugh but felt it was inappropriate.
"Don't worry, my lord, Master Changjue is fine. The nuns who surrounded Xingfu Temple have long since withdrawn."
"Withdrawn?"
Yiyin is also curious.
Tsutsui Junkei wasted so much effort and spent two years on it. How could he give up halfway?
Nizi Shengjiu said with a smile.
“After Xingfukuji Temple was surrounded, Yinrong, the director of Xingfukuji Temple’s Hohoin Temple, decisively stated that the Hohoin Temple should abandon martial arts and practice Buddhism, and persuaded Master Changkue to practice in seclusion.
The weapons of the Hoho-in Temple were thrown out of the temple. Everyone in the temple was passionate about cultivating Buddhism. They ignored the nuns outside the temple and chanted sutras all day long.
Tsutsui Junkei was besieged for many days, and he dared not enter the temple. Finally, when he heard about the Kyoto Incident and your imminent return, he withdrew his troops and returned to Tsutsui Castle."
Yiyin looked strange when he heard this. No wonder Nizi Shengjiu suppressed his laughter. Treasure Court Yinrong's trick was really good.
Yamato's land of Buddhism has been established since the days of the Emperor's court. Tsutsui Junkei and other samurai nuns were all from the nun corps that guarded the temple.
They can seize power if they want to, but if they harm the current head of Kofukuji Temple, it will be difficult to clean up the mess in Yamato, a country with a strong Buddhist atmosphere.
