On a three-storey wooden building at the port of Hirado, by the window, Governor Matsuura and Ryuzoji Takanobu were sitting on their knees opposite to each other, and a table was set up between them with a jar of sake on it. The samurai of the Matsuura family brought up freshly-caught seafood such as black seabreams and seabasses, and the chef of the Matsuura family cooked the seafood on the spot, and the Matsuura family’s maids brought the seafood food on the tables of the Matsuura family and Ryuzoji Takanobu on their bare feet.
Matsuura family governor and Ryuzoji Takanobu through the window, looking at the sea in the distance.
At this moment, the sea is magnificent, the sea is like an evil scaly dragon haunting the sea, rolling waves after waves of several metres high waves, madly slapping to the coast, the earth-shaking whistling sound is like an evil scaly dragon hissing.
In the distance, the two ships slowly turned into two black dots, and then disappeared as if they were swallowed by the sea.
It was only after the two ships could not be seen that the Matsuura Family Governor and Ryuzoji Takanobu retracted their gazes one after the other.
“Your Highness, please taste it. This is our Matsuura family’s most prestigious chef, and the seafood cuisine is a masterpiece.”The Matsuura Family Governor poured Ryuzoji Takanobu a cup of sake and invited him to taste the cuisine of the Matsuura Family’s chef.
The Matsuura family’s chef was originally the chef of the Shogun Ashikaga Yoshiharu’s residence, and the Matsuura family governor saved his life by chance once, which brought him to the Matsuura family as the chef. Whenever a guest arrives, the Matsuura family governor will ask him to cook for them, and he will always be praised by the guest, which is one of the few things that the Matsuura family governor is most proud of.
“The flavour is bland, tasteless, and the reputation is actually hard to live up to ……”Ryuzoji Takanobu tasted a mouthful and shook his head slightly.
Matsuura family governor could not help but be stunned for a moment, then apologised, “What a rude mistake, failing to satisfy your highness.”
Could it be that the chef missed ……
After apologising to Ryuzoji Takanobu, the Matsuura Family Governor also picked up a chopstick of the cuisine, put it into his mouth, and
Gently chewed a mouthful, and then eyebrows can not help but gently frowned, its frown is not that the cuisine is difficult to eat, but the cuisine is delicious, and can even be used to describe the very best delicious, this is the first-class work of the Palace Imperial Cuisine, Matsuura Family Governor thought that the Shogun’s family of the master chef is just like this, how His Highness is still unsatisfied ……
“Your Highness, Lord, please taste this dish.”After hearing Ryuzoji Takanobu’s comment, the Matsuura family’s chef pondered a little and created another meal on the spot, inviting Ryuzoji Takanobu and the Matsuura family governor to taste it.
Ryuzoji Takanobu lifted his stick and ate it, nodding his head in satisfaction, “Such a great good taste.”
Matsuura Family Governor smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, following suit and putting a chopstick into his mouth, then couldn’t help but frown again.
If the first dish is a first-class palace imperial cuisine, light and elegant, colour and flavour, then this dish is a third-class countryside heavy cuisine, the flavour is so strong and heavy that the sauce almost covers the freshness of the seafood itself…….
Since ancient times, daimyo from all over the world have been looking to Kyoto, whether it is taste, clothing and dress or popular entertainment, which is a symbol of status and identity. Over time, the tastes and so on of the daimyo from all over the world have become almost the same as Kyoto, differing greatly from the tastes and preferences of the local commoners.
Theoretically speaking, Ryuzoji Takanobu should also like the palace imperial food is right, how to like on the countryside heavy taste ……
“Hehe, Lord Matsuura but think that this public countryside ……”Ryuzoji Takanobu eyed Matsuura family governor, smiled and said.
“I dare not, I dare not ……”Matsuura family governor was Ryuzoji Takanobu said the heart, can not help but forehead cold sweat densely emerging, hastily returned.
“Oh, this why dare not, this is the truth, this public is like the countryside heavy taste! Compared to the Kyoto Dragon Rising God rising place, this public prefers the countryside! Matsuura-sama, do you think that Kyoto and the countryside, which is more important?”Ryuzoji Takanobu laughed, narrowed his eyes at Matsuura Family Governor and asked softly.
Kyoto and the countryside, which is more important? Is there any need to think about this, of course Kyoto is heavier! However, Ryuzoji Takanobu had said that he liked the countryside, this off-the-cuff answer, Matsuura Family Governor hesitated for several seconds before saying, “In my humble opinion, Kyoto is more important.”
The reason why Matsuura family governor honestly said, or afraid of Ryuzoji Takanobu said that his heart is inconsistent, can not be trusted.
“Kyoto is heavier? Oh, Lord Matsuura, this world, ah, has changed, long gone. Kyoto and the countryside, our countryside is heavier.”Ryuzoji Takanobu smiled and shook his head, saying slowly.
“The countryside is heavier?!”Matsuura Family Governor was stunned with disbelief at his words, “Why did Your Highness say that?”
Matsuura Family Governor’s heart disagreed ten thousand times, how could the countryside be compared to Kyoto! Kyoto, that is Kyoto! For thousands of years, which one of the daimyo from all over the world did not have a dream of Shangluo?
Shangluo means to go to the capital. In Japan, the action of a daimyo leading an army to Kyoto is called “Shangluo”, which is the ultimate dream, the ultimate ambition of daimyo everywhere, especially during the Warring States period, to lead an army to Kyoto, to control Kyoto, to pay homage to the Emperor, to establish the Shogunate, and to build a world of martial arts. ……
“Oh, Lord Matsuura, the era of controlling the world by controlling Kyoto has become a thing of the past, only by controlling all the places and sweeping away all the opposing forces can we truly Bubu the world, and those who are still obsessed with Kyoto will ultimately be eliminated by the times and become a thing of the past, just as history has done ……That is why, Lord Matsuura, Kyoto is more important compared to the countryside, and those who win the countryside, win the world.”
Ryuzoji Takanobu gave a huh and said slowly.
Matsuura Family Governor was stunned for a long time as if he was thunderstruck.
“Oh, of course, Buwu world, now it is only think about it, it is better to control the fat front first.”
Ryuzoji Takanobu smiled again and shook his head.
“Your Highness is wise and powerful, and with a strong army under your command, you will be able to unify Hizen. The world of Buwu can also be expected. I, the Matsuura family, would like to serve Your Highness as a dog and horse.”The Matsuura family governor owed his body and complimented, stating his submission.
“Oh, it is not easy to unify Hizen. Lord Matsuura’s words don’t work, nor do my lord’s words, only iron and blood will work, and we have to subdue all the opposing forces. To fight a war, we need conscripts, provisions, armaments, pay and pensions, and so on, all of which require money, and I am poor.”
Ryuzoji Takanobu spread out his hands and cried poorly.
“Also please rest assured, your highness, the other side of the big Ming has countless wealth, tens of thousands of times than my Yamato, pot island Naoyao general and Matsuura Sanbanro they this time west stabbing the big Ming Su lake area is the most rich place in the big Ming, the big Ming has two proverbs, one is called ‘Su lake is ripe the world is enough’, the other one is calledThe other one is called ‘Heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below’, which can be seen that the Su Lake area is rich. In recent years, Daming suffered from looting of the area is mostly Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian, Su Hang area, including the capital of Daming Yingtian, rarely been looted. This time, after the return of General Nabeshima Naono and Matsuura Sanbanro, I, Matsuura Family, would like to dedicate myself to assisting His Highness’ command in plundering the Su-Hang area of Daming and taking the countless riches of Daming to help His Highness to unify the world of Feiqian and Buwu.”Matsuura Family Governor said slowly while filling Ryuzoji Takanobu’s wine cup.
