    Tokugawa Iemitsu was killed by a glass of poisonous wine!

    Tokugawa Iemitsu was born in Edo Castle in the ninth year of Keicho, Japan.  Six years before his birth in Keicho, his mother Ae gave birth to his eldest brother Nagasumaru. However, Nagasatsu died nine months after he was born. Therefore, after Takechiyo was born, he enjoyed the treatment and education of the prince.  Because Takechiyo is the second son of the second-generation shogun Hidetada, his grandfather Ieyasu gave him the nickname "Takechiyo", which means that this newborn child will become the third-generation shogun.

    Many people also continue to please Hidetada and his wife and Kunichiyo because Kunichiyo may become the third generation general.  Takechiyo felt very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do.  Until one time, Takechiyo attempted suicide. Afu, who had long felt that Takechiyo would be deprived of his inheritance rights, went to Sunfu Castle to tell Ieyasu the truth inside Edo Castle and the injustice of Hidetada and his wife.  Afterwards, Ieyasu came forward and told Hidetada and his wife that they needed to be divided into legitimate concubines so that Iemitsu could ensure the inheritance of the third generation of shoguns.  It is generally believed that Takechiyo was confirmed as the heir to the shogunate during the Yuanwa period.

    In the second year of Japan's Yuanwa period, Tokugawa Ieyasu decided that the retainers who would assist Takechiyo in the future would be Sakai Tadori, Naito Seiji and Aoyama Tadoshi, and appointed more than sixty servants.  In the same year, Tokugawa Ieyasu died at the age of seventy-five.  Due to the death of Tokugawa Ieyasu, Takechiyo's Yuanfu ceremony was postponed for four years.  In the third year of the Yuanhe period of Japan, Takechiyo's residence moved to Nishinomaru.  In the fourth year of the Yuanhe period of Japan, we welcomed the imperial envoy.  In the sixth year of Yuanhe, Takechiyo took the Yuan Dynasty and officially changed his name to Iemitsu, and he followed the two great ministers.  The name Iemitsu was chosen by Kanechiin Takaden. Originally, Iemitsu should have taken the "home" from his grandfather Ieyasu and the "chu" from his father Hidetada.  He changed his name to Ie Tadashi, but because the name Ie Tadashi was the same as the name of the ancestor of the Hanashan family, he chose the name Iemitsu.

    In the 9th year of Japan's Genwa era, Naito Seiji, who was one of the most respected members of the public, passed away. Aoyama Tadatsuki was dismissed because of his direct advice to Iemitsu. Therefore, the two vacancies were filled by Sakai Tadashi and Sakai Tadakatsu.

    In June of the same year, Tokugawa Iemitsu went to Luo with his father Tokugawa Hidetada and accepted the shogunate's declaration at Fushimi Castle.  He served as a servant to two chamberlain ministers, and met with the concubine and sister of Emperor Gomizuo, Kazuko, who entered the chamber in the sixth year of Yuanhe.

    After the father and son returned to Edo Castle.  Tokugawa Iemitsu officially became the third shogun, and Hidetada lived in seclusion in Nishinomaru.

    Tokugawa Iemitsu moved his residence to Honmaru.  Tokugawa Hidetada is the same as Tokugawa Ieyasu.  It is called the Grand Imperial Palace.  The general and the imperial palace govern the world together, which is called dual politics.  In September, Iemitsu's betrothed, Takako Takaji, the daughter of the minister Takaji Nobuka, entered Edo Castle, and in December, the two were officially married.  At that time, Iemitsu was twenty years old and his dutiful son was twenty-two years old.

    In the third year of Kanei's reign, Hidetada and Iemitsu led Date Masamune and many other daimyo to Luo. They paid homage to Emperor Gomizuo and Nakamiya Kazuko in Nijo Castle, and were promoted to ministers of the left.

    Tokugawa Iemitsu is not close to his eldest brother Tadaga, who has the same father and mother.  He doesn't trust him either, but trusts his half-brother Masayuki more. After his mother Sogenin passed away, Tadada became promiscuous, and his father Hidetada once asked him to spare Tadach¨­.  But he said that Tadaki, Tadanao, and Tadada all had a bad end. Later, Tadaga committed suicide by seppuku, and Tokugawa Iemitsu felt very regretful.

    The death of Tokugawa Hidetada in the eighth year of Kanei eradicated the dualist politics and began the politics of the general himself ruling.  The system of laozhong, wakanenji, shouxing, and daimofus was established, and the current shogunate of the shogunate was designated as the highest authority.

    In the twelfth year of Kanyong, all the laws of the Wu family were revised.  It imposes obligations on the princes to attend and give orders.  Monopolizing the interests of Nagasaki trade, strengthening the suppression of Catholicism, the Shimabara Rebellion in the 14th year of Kanei, and completing the seclusion policy four years later.  Because of these things, the series of power policies of the Tokugawa Shogunate were considered "arbitrary politics."

    In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, the Tiger Guards landed in Japan in large numbers and overwhelmingly defeated all Japanese resistance forces.  On the second day of June in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen's reign in the Ming Dynasty, Tokugawa Iemitsu, the third generation general of the Tokugawa shogunate, became a prisoner.

    The next day, Tokugawa Iemitsu died suddenly in his shogun's mansion.

    Tokugawa Iemitsu has finished his life that no one can truly explain.

    Soon, his son and daughter also died of sudden illness, and the Tokugawa family was extinct.  Although many people in history have implicitly pointed out that the genocide of the Tokugawa family was caused by Ding Yunyi's instigation, no one has any evidence.

    Even after Tokugawa Iemitsu died, Ding Yunyi held a decent funeral for him.

    The death of Tokugawa Iemitsu was just the beginning of Ding Yunyi's rectification of Japan, and when Wu Liehou Ding Yunyi appeared in the Japanese palace, it was the beginning of Japan's real disaster.

    Just like Tokugawa Iemitsu, Emperor Meisho also met Ding Yunyi, the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, for the first time.

    Emperor Mingzheng seemed to have anticipated his fate, so she behaved quite calmly in front of Ding Yunyi.

    "That's good,"??Okay.  "Ding Yunyi seemed to be very satisfied with the other party's attitude: "The fate has been decided, and any form of resistance is useless.  "

    "Whatever you want, please tell me." Mingzheng seemed a little tired: "As long as it can ensure that my people are not harmed, I am willing to accept any request you have."

    Ding Yunyi nodded: "I like to talk to people who are cheerful, whether they are men or women. If this is the case, then you should abdicate."

    Mingzheng was silent there.

    Abdicate?  She never thought that Ding Yunyi's request to him was to abdicate!

    "I'm a little tired of killing." Ding Yunyi said lightly: "I can force you to abolish your position, but I'm afraid it will cause a lot of resistance. After all, there are still many people loyal to you in Japan, so I hope you take the initiative to ask for it.  Abdicate and minimize the resistance of the Japanese. As I said just now, I am a little tired of killing."

    After finishing speaking, without waiting for Mingzheng to speak, he continued: "I have also thought of the reasons for abdicating for you. Failure to cultivate virtue led to the fall of Japan. At the same time, during the defense of Kyoto, he listened to Tokugawa Iemitsu's instigation.  , setting fire to Kyoto and displacing innocent people, do you think this kind of abdication is the most honorable thing?¡±

    Mingzheng couldn¡¯t say a word.

    Is this the most honorable way to abdicate?  No, this is the most shameful way to abdicate!  But now the fate of both myself and Japan as a whole is at stake.  Everything is already in the hands of this person.

    "You have three days to make a decision." Ding Yunyi didn't want to talk too much nonsense with her. He stood up slowly: "I will only wait for you for three days. If you still can't make a decision in three days,  Then I can only help you make the decision."

    After saying that, he strode away from here.

    Mingzheng sat blankly, not knowing what to do.

    This is a naked threat, ever since Mingzheng can remember.  I have never been so threatened by anyone.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Asakusako, the maid who had followed her for half her life, ran in in a panic: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers in the palace are soldiers from the Ming Dynasty. Our people have been gathered together and have lost their freedom."

    "I understand, Asakusa." Ming Zheng sighed and asked his loyal maid to sit down next to him: "Just now, Ding Yunyi, the general of the Ming Dynasty, came to see me. Do you know what he wanted me to do?  ? Abdicate, he ordered me to abdicate immediately. "

    "No!" Asakusa shouted loudly: "Your Majesty must not abdicate!"

    "But what else can we do?" Mingzheng looked very helpless: "Now that Kyoto is completely in their hands, we have no way to resist them."

    Asakusa gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, there must be a way. There are still many people loyal to His Majesty in Kyoto and Japan. I am willing to risk my life to escape from Kyoto and tell everyone about His Majesty's suffering."

    "Don't be stupid, you can't even get out of the palace." Mingzheng sighed softly: "Even if you can really run out, where will you find someone who can save me? Everyone has failed. Japan has also failed.  Failed."

    Asakusa looked at the emperor blankly, and suddenly burst into tears.

    Looking at the crying maid, Mingzheng felt that he should also cry.  Japan, is Japan just in your own hands?

    Have you become a sinner in Japan?

    Mingzheng just sat there silentlyshe was waiting.  Waiting for the time limit given to her by Ding Yunyi.

    Let Amaterasu decide everything

    ?¡­

    "Kyoto is relatively quiet at the moment." Cai Jiuzhou reported on the situation in Kyoto: "The fire has been brought under control, but the damage has been extremely huge. Almost half of Kyoto has been burned down. The Japanese people are currently conducting post-disaster rescue operations. It is estimated that it will be very long."  There won¡¯t be any big moves for a long time!¡±

    Ding Yunyi nodded, this was the same as what he had imagined before.  The fire helped me a lot.

    If there is no such big job.  Kyoto people's attention will not be diverted from the defeat of the war so quickly.  From this point of view, we should really thank Ah Hu.

    But you can¡¯t say this in front of Ah Hu.

    "There won't be big moves now, but that doesn't mean there won't be big moves forever," Ding Dingyunyi pondered: "Tokugawa Iemitsu is dead, the entire Tokugawa family is extinct, and we have also made up our minds to let the emperor system  After all, classifying Japan as our land will inevitably arouse great resistance from the Japanese. If it is not handled properly, it may trigger a backlash across Japan.Fight the tide.  "

    "Then kill him!" Ah Hu said nonchalantly.

    "Kill? It depends on how to kill! If we kill them all, what are we going to do with an empty Japan?" Ding Yunyi glanced dissatisfied at Ah Hu, who only used violence to solve problems: "Any form of riot will always have organizers  What we want to kill is this group of organizers, so the top priority is to capture all the people loyal to the Japanese royal family in Kyoto and keep them under strict surveillance and control. This still depends on the people of Ida Rigi. "

    Cai Jiuzhou responded: "To be honest, these Japanese traitors really helped us a lot and saved us a lot of unnecessary troubles when we were able to end the War in Japan so smoothly."

    "So we must treat the Japanese equally." Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "Those who are loyal to us and willing to do things for us are our friends."

    Xie Tian said at this time: "I have made a preliminary investigation and found that there are four nobles in Japan, namely Minamoto, Taira, Fujiwara, and Tachibana. These four nobles are the most prominent and the most loyal to the emperor. Minamoto, it is said that Minamoto is the  The surname comes from the story of Shizu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Emperor Saga had too many princes and could not give them all official positions, so he separated some of them as courtiers and gave them the surname Minamoto. Later, Ninmei, Wen, Qinghe, and Yosei  The so-called Japanese emperors such as Mitsutaka, Uta, Daigo, Murakami, Reisen, Hanayama, Ichijo, Gosanjo, Gosaga, etc. also followed this rule. The most prosperous one was the Taira clan, which was given a name from Heian Kyo by Emperor Kanmu.  The princes became courtiers, and the descendants of Emperors Kanmu, Nimei, Bun, and Mitsutaka all had this surname. The most prosperous one was the Kanmuhei clan.  , Shiki, Kyo's four families, and many samurai who were married to the Nakatomi family during the manor era also changed their surname to Fujiwara. The Fujiwara family has always been the mainstream of the public family. The Tachibana family was given by Emperor Minda to his prince's surname, along with others.  The three families were relatively small in power. During the period when the samurai family was on the rise, there was no significant development. They often had marital relations with the successive imperial families and the Fujiwara family. Relying on this factor, the Tachibana family was also able to become a minister. Later, the political struggle with the Fujiwara family failed.  , gradually declined.¡±

    "Okay! Let's start with these four nobles!" Ding Yunyi was very satisfied with the efficiency of his subordinates: "The Japanese respect the nobles very much. Internally, the Japanese divide people into emperors, nobles, samurai, farmers and businessmen, untouchables, etc.  Hierarchy. Due to the continuous consolidation of the hierarchical ideology that the strong is king, there have been very few civilian uprisings in Japanese history, and even fewer uprisings by the poor that overthrew aristocratic rule. In the minds of the vast majority of Japanese people, the aristocrats at that time were the strong ones, and they were respected.  It is only natural. Therefore, Japan's political power has always been relatively consolidated, and the ruling class has continued to deliberately strengthen the concept of hierarchy and the consciousness of the strong for its own interests, and even deified the Imperial family and compared them to the sun god, allowing the strong to ravage them.  The hierarchical concept of the weak is even more unshakable in the hearts of Japanese people, and what we need to grasp is this mentality of the strong being king!¡±

    The subordinates looked at each other and knew that by this time, Wu Liehou must have a perfect idea in his mind to deal with the Japanese problem.

    "I don't want to go on a killing spree, but I won't care if someone forces me to go on a killing spree." Ding Yunyi said coldly: "From now on, all Huben guards will be on first-level alert, waiting for orders at any time, patrolling the streets of Kyoto.  The outposts are all doubled, and the Golden Sword Guards of Xie Tian are speeding up the spying on intelligence in Japan, and paying close attention to all possible developments in the palace! "

    "Yes!" When this order was issued, all the Tiger Guard generals responded loudly.  Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work
