Chapter 2159 My biological mother and stepmother are so annoying

After the meeting, Yiyin closed his eyes and rested, feeling a little tired.

This world is just a giant makeshift team, and there will always be people who hold things back. Whether in China or in an island country, it is really difficult to get something done.

Beside him, Miyuki looked at Yiyin's tired appearance and couldn't help feeling distressed in her heart. Yes, she felt distressed.

As a daughter, she shouldn't have such a negative attitude towards her father, but it kept growing in Miyuki's heart.

Since they were the only ones left in the room, Miyuki spoke without hesitation and spoke frankly.

"Father, why worry? If the trade can be opened, then it will be opened. If it cannot be opened, then it does not matter.

A living person will not be suffocated to death by urine. As long as the island countries are willing to get closer to China and establish a close relationship of interest, there will always be a way. "

Yiyin glanced at Miyuki and scolded him lightly.

"Vulgar, what kind of metaphor is that?"

Miyuki smiled and said disapprovingly.

“Although the island nation is isolated in Northeast Asia, the foreign trade of this Treasure Island has never been truly isolated.

Who can go against gold and silver?
The main family of Tsushima Island has always had private trade relations with the peninsula.

The Shimazu clan in southern Kyushu also had its eyes on Ryukyu. It was only a matter of time before they would pay tribute to the Celestial Empire in the name of Ryukyu and gain trade benefits.

My father also has the southern barbarians in his hands, so Macau’s trade channels are endless.

In fact, there has always been a smuggling trade of ferrying money between Sakai Port and Zhoushan Islands, and Imai Munehisa, who was under Takada Haruno, was involved.

Without Zhang the butcher, will we not be able to eat Wumao pigs? Emperor Wanli couldn't understand those bureaucrats in the Celestial Empire, but as long as there is enough interest, we can always find a way to deepen the economic relationship between the two sides. "

Yiyin looked at Miyuki and asked.

"You don't seem to care whether the Kangei trade can be opened?"

Miyuki laughed.

"It's not just about trade, even if the Ming Dynasty falls, I don't care.

As long as the Manchu and Mongolian barbarians are not allowed to take over the world, what's wrong with internal changes in the Celestial Empire?
Since ancient times, separation and reunion have been the norm in the Celestial Empire. As long as there is no scandal, we will just go with the flow when dynasties change within the Celestial Empire.

The Ming Dynasty is in such a mess now, and it is almost the end of the dynasty. It will be over sooner or later.

There is no dynasty that will last forever, but China will last forever. What we love is Chinese civilization, not a particular dynasty or generation. As long as Chinese civilization does not decline, it doesn’t matter which regime we serve.”

Yiyin touched his chin and felt that what Miyuki said made some sense.

It seemed that it didn't matter whether the Kanghe trade was opened or not. The Ming Dynasty was already rotten anyway. Even if the court allowed the Kanghe trade to be reopened, the corrupt bureaucratic group might still cause trouble behind the scenes.

It is difficult to do things, but it is easy to do bad things. The Celestial Empire's maritime ban on smuggling has long been closely linked with bureaucratic capital. Even if the trade is reluctantly opened, it may not be a good thing.

Furthermore, trade does not necessarily have to go through the imperial court. The most important thing is that you are valuable and the Celestial Empire is willing to deepen economic ties.

As long as the economic relations between the Celestial Empire and the island nation continue to deepen, even if it is not through official channels, the political line of Yiyin and Miyuki can actually be considered a success.

Even if the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, as long as the Manchus were prevented from entering the country, the island country could still submit to the new Chinese dynasty according to the old rules and complete a new round of vassalage.

While Yiyin was thinking, Miyuki looked at his handsome profile and couldn't help but tease.

"If father is determined to open up the kangei trade, there is actually a simple way.

I heard that Emperor Wanli was a homebody and a womanizer. If you are willing to go to the Celestial Empire in person, who knows. He might agree to anything. "

Yiyin glanced at his little daughter who was grinning slyly and snorted.

"Nonsense! Who do you think your father is?"

Seeing Yiyin's color change, Shenxue was not afraid but happy, lowered her head and murmured. "If you don't want to, I don't want to either, that's perfect."

To be honest, because the history of the rise of the Sasaki family can also be regarded as Yoshigaki's history, Miyuki is really worried that Yoshigaki will repeat the same trick. Although the possibility is not high, she has to find out what Yoshigaki is thinking.

Now seeing Yiyin's extremely disgusted attitude towards this, Miyuki felt relieved.

Yiyin seemed to sense something and asked with a frown.

"What are you mumbling about?"

Miyuki smiled and changed the subject.

"I mean, my cheap stepmothers who gave birth to the descendants of the Shiba gods are really good at taking advantage of every opportunity.

In order to be submissive to the Imperial Court and deal with Ichijo Hideyoshi, you have been working hard to devise a plan, but they are taking advantage of the political reshuffle to expand their own power.

Kanto is too far away for me to see clearly, but I can see clearly what is happening in Kinki right now.

Akechi Mitsuhide took advantage of the conflict between the Sasaki and Ichijo families and tried his best to purge the local samurai in Tamba Province, and had already turned Tamba Province into her possession.

Maeda Toshiie was making great strides in the Hokuriku Province, and the head of the Noto Hatakeyama family, Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna, had long lost his voice. The local samurai, who were nominally subordinate to the Noto Hatakeyama family, followed Maeda Toshiie's lead.

Together with the old retainers of Oda from Echizen Province who were won over by Maeda Toshiie, a daimyo with a million koku of wealth spanning Echizen, Kaga, and Noto has already come onto the stage.

By the way, there is also Maeda Yoshiyuki, who has already reached out to Ise Owari, which is next to Iga.

In addition, Akechi Mitsuhide is the adoptive mother of Qiqimaru, and the samurai families in the old Oda territory are being tempted by Akechi Mitsuhide, Maeda Toshiie, and Maeda interests, and are constantly dividing and splitting up. What a feast for the gluttons."

Yoshigine glared at Miyuki and said.

“Those are your stepmothers, you should speak to them with some respect.

Also, don’t always point fingers at others for doing things improperly. Why don’t you tell us about your own mother’s affairs?

Maeda Toshiie encroached on Noto Province, and didn't Uesugi Kenshin also devour Echigo Province?

The Echigo Ikko-Shon Temple has been writing to me privately, saying that your mother is overbearing and is about to swallow up all of the temple's property.

What do you mean you don't know about Kanto? That's nonsense. Which document on my desk haven't you read? What can be hidden from a clever little ghost like you?
The world is bustling with people seeking profit, and the world is bustling with people seeking profit.

You and I should be clear about the morality of the samurai society and the background of the Sasaki theocracy.

I will leave you the power of the Sōma clan, but it is your responsibility to control it and make it the most loyal lackey of the Celestial Empire.

You, please be fair. "

Miyuki pouted, she looked at Yiyin's handsome face, feeling very unhappy and muttered something.

"My dear little mom...I'm so annoying."

Yiyin misunderstood Miyuki's troubles and followed suit with a complaint.

"Are you annoyed now? I've been annoyed for eighteen years. You'll have plenty to worry about in the future. Do you really think it's so easy to be the boss?"

Miyuki looked at Yiyin's tired and helpless expression and said subconsciously.

"It's really hard on you."

Yiyin smiled.

"They are all my wings. I chose them myself. Even if it is hard, it is my own fault."

Miyuki felt strangely irritated and repeated that sentence in a low voice.

"It's so annoying."
