Pillars of the Wu family

Now the believers of the Ichizo sect in Katada have lost the protection of Hongan Temple, and have suffered cruel persecution from Hongan Temple one after another. At this time, they have become a mess and unable to recover, and Enryaku Temple has always tabooed the believers of the Ichiko sect, especially those who are close to Biji. The believers of Yixiangzong near the gate of Mount Rui hated it even more. Since the old monk of Mingzong died of starvation, the monks and soldiers of Mount Hiei often went down the mountain to attack the private missionary activities of the believers of Yixiangzong, and even killed many people.

Regarding the appeal of the believers of the Kentian Ichigoji Sect, the current head of the Shishan Hongan Temple chose to ignore it. Anyway, it is a group of people who are on the wrong team and now they are completely abolishing the temple. Do it right, so Honganji gave up on them tacitly.

But Jiantian believers have always survived tenaciously. The disciples of Jiantian did not allow them to change their appearance and blend in with local farmers, fishermen, and businessmen in Jiantian. This change made this group of people more hidden and difficult to deal with. The antagonism between the Tendai sect and the Ichigo sect within the Tianzhong sect is also very sharp. Relatively speaking, the followers of the Ichigo sect are stronger, but behind the Tiantai sect believers is Mount Hiei, so they are not afraid of them.

Yoshitoshi Kira was fully aware of this situation, and felt that it was still necessary to discuss the context of his beliefs. He immediately wrote to invite Yoshikawa Soki, the abbot of Mino Sofukuji Temple, to come here, and ordered Ninagawa's father to bring the acupoints to the temple. Originally, a new temple was rebuilt on the original site of Fukuji Temple and named Miaoyun Temple, because although the original site of Benfuku Temple was demolished a lot, and the Kalan was also destroyed, it was after all a famous big temple in Omi Biwako generation. The centuries-old foundation makes the monastery very grand.

Even though many buildings have been demolished, the foundation has not been damaged, so rebuilding will save time and effort. For this reason, Kira Yoshitoshi also issued a general request to the Katada congregation. This time it is rebuilding a Buddhist temple, so the general invitation to participate is very important. More than 6000 people took the initiative to participate in general labor in the Jiantian area alone. Because there is no shortage of stones and wood in Omi, it is estimated that the reconstruction of the new temple will only cost [-] kanmon. Build it.

After receiving the letter, Kuaichuan Shaoxi immediately took a group of monks from Chongfu Temple to Omi. It turned out that the old Zen monk had long been tired of the endless struggle for power in Chongfu Temple. Shaoxi would also leave Chongfu Temple to practice outside. This time, the letter written by Kiragi just fit his new idea. A new temple without the interference of the former abbot at all is really the best.

So he immediately rushed to Jiantian with his religious order in Chongfu Temple. After field inspection, he was very satisfied with the location and scale of the new temple. After hearing about the chaotic belief structure in Jiantian, He immediately threw himself into vigorous missionary activities. During the three months of rebuilding the new temple, he insisted on relying on begging for alms every day to preach in Jiantian, because the eminent monk's reputation and erudite knowledge immediately won everyone's respect.

When Kira Yoshitoshi was busy softening the will of the Katada people to resist, troubles broke out in Shiga County, which has always been stable, and was obstructed by external forces during the Shiga County Inland Inspection. The source of this external force was Yamaoka, the important minister of the Rokaku family Jingzhi, this gentleman has been serving as the governor of Shiga and Litai counties before this, but since Kira Yoshishi rose and took away the Shiga County he was in charge of, this gentleman is very dissatisfied.

Yamaoka Keiyuki has been stable for more than a year because he wanted to see the jokes of the Kira family, but as the Kira family performed miracles on the battlefield and on the field one after another, not only did he feel panicked, even his master Rokkaku Yoshiken This is helpless.

Unwilling to just lose his influence in Shiga County, this gentleman took advantage of the opportunity of Kira's family inspection to use his own territory in Shiga to start troubles, saying that Kira was planning to allocate more heavy military service and raise taxes Squeezing the people, in short, he shaped Yoshitoki Kira into a Zhou Papier. Although his trick was clumsy, some farmers who didn't know the truth were really incited by him, and Shiga seemed to be showing signs of making a fuss.

Yoshitoki Kira immediately noticed any trouble in the county. With the eyeliner monitoring he had arranged for more than a year, Yamaoka Keiyuki's small movements could not be hidden immediately, but Yoshiki Kira had nothing to do with this guy. In Litai County, the remote control can't catch him, and this person is an important minister of the Liujiao family, so it is not appropriate for the Kira family to turn their faces and arrest him.

Yamaoka Keiyuki seems to be sure that the Kira family can't do anything to him. It is absolutely unfettered to use all kinds of low-level methods to fan the flames and spread rumors in the county. His rampant actions immediately aroused the anger of the Kira family. Of course, how many people in Takashima County It's hard to tell anyone watching the excitement. The Kira family is still trying to tame the stubborn Kentian people. The Miaoyun Temple has just started construction, so if something goes wrong at this time and messes up his plan, it will be troublesome.

Yamaoka Kageyuki has nine townships in Shiga County with [-] shi of land, all of which are concentrated in the Otsu area, which is the fertile area connecting Lake Biwa and the Uji River. Kira Yoshitoshi participated in the appraisal meeting for this department early on, and also for the army of Kira Yoshitoshi. He was disgusted by the guy who didn't pay attention to the release of the servant, and when Kira Yoshishi allowed him to be so rampant, it didn't mean that there was nothing he could do about him.

On the fifth day of his continuous instigation of riots, the Kira family sent an executive officer to the place where the trouble occurred to issue a decree, telling the rioting villagers that someone was plotting to spread the rumors of the Kira family. In the end, the Kira family never said that they would increase taxes, and the increase in military service was not aimed at farmers, but some lords who had escaped military service. They were worried that the Kira family would endanger their status out of selfishness.

As soon as the matter is discussed, arrest a few people who made rumors and interrogate them on the spot, asking them where the news came from, when did the Kira family issue an order to increase taxes on farmers and townspeople, and when to increase military service, ask a few guys The peasants were left speechless, and the lies were exposed on the spot, and the farmers knew that they had been fooled.

Then someone stood up and said that His Highness Kira is a good person, everyone is getting better and better this year thanks to His Highness Kira's care, how could His Highness Kira harm everyone?Everyone, don't listen to rumors, first read what His Royal Highness Kira has to say before making troubles, and be careful that some of us will spoil your good life by doing bad things.

So the peasants who were about to make a fuss just now began to hesitate. They didn't know which side to believe. One was their lord and the other was the lord of the country. But many people felt that Kira Yoshitoshi was indeed a good person, at least it was very refreshing to give out money. , and those who died in the battle were given a sum of compensation. Even if they died, those who made meritorious deeds would still have nothing to lose. Moreover, brothers were allowed to inherit the merits of their father and brother who died in battle. Those who made meritorious deeds on the battlefield Part of the annual payment can be reduced or exempted, which is a real benefit.

When the Ichikui Army was hesitant, Yoshitoki Kira sent several groups of officials into the townships to carry out publicity and education. Hosokawa Fujitaka came to Otsu in person and introduced to the farmers and townspeople here: "First of all, you must know the prefecture. What to do, not apportionment of military expenses, although His Highness Kira is not as rich as His Royal Highness in Kyoto, but he is not short of their taxes!"
