Chapter 1434 Ryuzoji Takanobu's Ambition

On a three-story wooden building in Hirado Port, near the window, the governor of the Matsuura family and Ryuzoji Takanobu sat kneeling opposite each other. There was a table between them with a jar of sake on it. The black sea bream, sea bass and other seafood were brought up, and the chef of the Matsuura family cooked the seafood on the spot, and the maid of the Matsuura family brought the seafood dishes to the two tables of the governor of the Matsuura family and Takanobu Ryuzoji with her bare feet.

Matsuura Family Governor and Ryuzoji Takanobu look out at the sea in the distance through the window.

The sea at this time is majestic, as if there are evil dragons making trouble in the sea, waves of several meters high waves are rolled up, and they rush to the coast crazily, and the earth-shattering roar is like the roar of evil dragons.

In the distance, the two closed ships slowly turned into two black spots, and then disappeared as if swallowed by the sea.

After the two closed ships could not be seen, the governor of the Matsuura family and Ryuzoji Takanobu turned their eyes away one after another.

"Your Highness, please taste it. This is the most prestigious chef in our Matsuura family, and seafood dishes are a must." The governor of the Matsuura family poured a glass of sake for Ryuzoji Takanobu, and invited him to taste the dishes of the Matsuura family chef.

The chef of the Matsuura family was originally the chef of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiharu's house. The governor of the Matsuura family accidentally saved his life, so he was invited to the Matsuura family as the chef. Every time a distinguished guest arrives, the Governor of Matsuura will invite him to cook and entertain him, and the beauty is praised by the distinguished guests. This is one of the things that the Governor of Matsuura is most proud of.

"The taste is bland, tasteless to eat, and it's hard to live up to the reputation." Longxin Longzhuosi took a sip and shook his head slightly.

Matsuura House Governor couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then apologized, "I'm really rude, and I didn't satisfy His Highness."

Could it be that the chef made a mistake?

After apologizing to Ryuzoji Takanobu, the governor of the Matsuura family also picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth.

He chewed lightly, and then frowned slightly. The frown didn't mean that the food was unpalatable, but that the food was delicious, and it could even be described as top-notch. I thought to myself that the chef of the shogun's family is nothing more than that, why is His Highness still not satisfied?

"Your Highness, my lord, please taste this dish." After listening to Ryuzoji Takanobu's evaluation, the chef of the Matsuura family thought for a while, and made another meal on the spot, and invited Ryuzoji Takanobu and the Matsuura family supervisor to taste it.

Ryuzoji Takanobu raised his chopsticks to eat, and nodded in satisfaction, "It tastes so good."

Matsuura Family Governor heard the words, heaved a sigh of relief, followed suit with a chopstick and put it in his mouth, and then frowned involuntarily.

If the first dish is a first-class royal meal, light and elegant, full of color and fragrance, then this dish is a third-rate country heavy taste dish, with a strong taste, and the sauce almost covers the umami of the seafood itself.

Since ancient times, daimyo from all over the world have followed the standards of Kyoto. Whether it is taste, clothing or popular entertainment, it is a symbol of status and identity. Over time, the tastes of daimyos from all over the country are almost the same as those in Kyoto, and they are very different from the tastes and preferences of ordinary people in the localities.

Theoretically speaking, Ryuzoji Takanobu should also like the imperial cuisine, but how come he likes the heavy taste of the country?

"Hehe, Matsuursama is my countryman." Ryuzoji Takanobu said with a smile while looking at Matsuura's house governor.

"How dare you, how dare you?" The governor of the Matsuura family was told by Ryuzoji Takanobu, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and he hurriedly replied.

"Hehe, why don't you dare? This is the fact. I just like the strong taste of the country! Compared with the place where the dragon ascends to the gods in Kyoto, I prefer the countryside! Master Matsuura, what do you think between the capital and the countryside? Which is more important?" Ryuzoji Takanobu laughed, squinted his eyes at the Governor of the Matsuura family, and asked softly.

Kyoto and the countryside, which is more important? ! Do you need to think about it? Of course, Kyoto is heavier! However, even Ryuzoji Takanobu said that he liked the countryside, but the Matsuura Family Governor hesitated for a few seconds before saying the answer that came out of his mouth, "It's foolish to think that Kyoto is more important."

The reason why the Matsuura family governor told the truth was because he was afraid that Ryuzoji Takanobu would say that he was duplicity and untrustworthy.

"Kyoto is heavier?! Hehe, Mr. Matsuura, the world has changed, it is no longer what it used to be. Kyoto and the countryside, our countryside is heavier." Ryuzoji Takanobu shook his head with a smile, and said slowly.

"The countryside is heavier?!" The governor of the Matsuura family was stunned when he heard this, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Why did your Highness say that?"

Matsuura's governor had 10,000 disagreements, how could the countryside be compared with Kyoto! Kyoto, that is Kyoto! For thousands of years, which of the big names from all over the world has not had a dream of Shangluo? !

Shangluo originally meant Shangjing, meaning to go to the capital. In Japan, the action of daimyo leading troops to Kyoto is called "Shangluo". This is the ultimate dream and ultimate ambition of daimyos from all over the world, especially during the Warring States period. , Bu Wu Tianxia

"Hehe, Matsuursama, the era of controlling the world by controlling the capital is over. Only by controlling all places and sweeping away all opposing forces can the world be truly armed. Those who are still obsessed with the capital will eventually be like history. The same, being eliminated by the times and becoming the past. So, Mr. Matsuura, compared with the countryside, the countryside is more important, and those who win the countryside win the world.

Longzuoji Longxin let out a heck and said slowly.

Matsuura's family governor was stunned for a long time.

"Hehe, of course, I can only think about it now, let's talk about it first."

Ryuzoji Takanobu smiled again and shook his head.

"Your Highness is wise and powerful, and the troops under his command are strong and strong, and he will surely be able to unify the former. It is also possible to deploy martial arts in the world. My Matsuura family is willing to do the work of dogs and horses for Your Highness."

"Hehe, it's not easy to unify Hizen. Master Matsuura's words don't work, and my father's words don't work either. Only iron and blood can work, and you need to conquer all opposing forces. To fight a war, you need to recruit troops, have to have food and grass, and have to have ordnance. , there must be military pay, pensions, etc., everything needs money, I am poor."

Longzao Temple Longxin spread his hands and cried poorly.

"Your Highness, please rest assured that Daming on the other side has innumerable wealth, which is tens of thousands of times that of Yamato. General Naoshima Nao and Sanbanlang Matsuura are the most affluent place in Daming when they assassinate the Su Lake area in the west. Daming There are two proverbs, one is "Suhu is familiar with the world", and the other is "There is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below". , Fujian, and Suzhou-Hangzhou area, including Daming Capital Yingtian, are rarely plundered. This time, after the return of General Nabeshima Nao and Matsuura Sanbanlang, my Matsuura family is willing to do our best to assist Your Highness in robbing the Daming Suzhou-Hangzhou area , to bring the innumerable wealth of the Ming Dynasty to help His Highness unify Hizen and spread martial arts in the world." The governor of the Matsuura family said slowly while filling the wine glass of Ryuzoji Takanobu.
