Chapter 51 The emperor is under duress, shocking plan!

Yagyu was awarded the emperor's imperial robe, and the remaining 11 members of the Shinsengumi also received gifts from the emperor. This greatly enhanced the prestige of the Shinsengumi, and Matsudaira Yoshiho was also quite pleased.

After the horse review, 12 people including Yagyu and Hijikata Toshizo followed Matsudaira Yoshiho to the Nijo Imperial Palace and met with Hitotsubashi Yoshiki.

Ichihashi looked at Yagyu happily and said with a smile: "Jubei, you really did not disappoint the general. It is extraordinary that you have obtained the imperial robes this time."

Yagyu immediately replied: "Hitohashi-sama is ridiculous, I'm just doing my job well and fulfilling my duties faithfully."

Ichihashi encouraged him: "Okay, Jubei, keep working hard, and I will report your achievements to the general."

"what."

Yagyu briefly spoke to Hitotsubashi Yingxi and left the palace. Although Hijikata Toshizo, Kondo Isamu and others did not stay for too long, Kondo Isamu was very excited and talked about his feelings with Hijikata Toshizo.

Yagyu smiled and said, "Okay, we got rained a lot this morning. Let's go to the doctor first to avoid getting cold, and then we'll take a hot bath to relax."

Okita Souji seemed to be afraid of going to the medicine house, but Yagyu forcefully pulled him into the medicine house. Doctor Takaan checked him and said, "I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Take a few doses and you'll be fine."

Liu Sheng immediately took out the money and said, "These will be reimbursed by the public account. Let's go and take a bath."

A group of 12 people arrived at the bath house quickly. Yagyu decided to ask for the best private room and took the others inside to take a bath. The hot water made everyone feel better and more comfortable.

Yagyu called the boss and immediately ordered a bunch of food, such as Teppanyaki, tempura, etc. There was a wooden board floating on the water with wine glasses and bottles inside. Everyone entered the pool wearing only white crotch cloths. , face each other sincerely, and talk happily over wine.

As soon as the scene changed, the emperor became depressed.

After seeing the troops of the Aizu Domain and the Shinsengumi's martial arts performance, the Emperor immediately said to his ministers: "In more than ten days, I will travel to Yamato. This time I want the Aizu Domain and the Shinsengumi to accompany them. It is so inevitable. Safety."

Sanjo Sanimi immediately objected: "Your Majesty, I have already said this. Aizuhou guards Kyoto and protects Kyoto's safety. How can he leave the capital so easily? The Shinsengumi also has to patrol near the Imperial Palace and cannot accompany him.

The Choshu Domain serves as the guard of the imperial palace. His Majesty is traveling to Yamato, so it is most appropriate for the Choshu Domain to protect him. "

The emperor was very angry when he heard this, but now that the Choshu clan was guarding the palace and Sanjo Sanimi and others were powerful, he did not dare to speak out and could only sulk.

Seeing that the emperor did not refute, Sanjo Sanimi said: "The shogunate has not resisted the barbarians so far, which has completely violated your majesty's trust. However, the Choshu clan will definitely support your majesty in resisting the barbarians. When the time comes, your majesty will be able to issue an order to the shogunate to resist the barbarians. If the shogunate ignores it, , as long as your Majesty gives an order, the Choshu Domain can support your Majesty in his personal expedition to attack the shogunate."

When the emperor heard this, he looked at Sanjo Sanimi in shock, and thought to himself: No, Sanjo Sanimi is sick?When did I want to personally conquer the shogunate?Don't talk nonsense!
The emperor realized that if the Choshu clan and Sanjo Sanimi continued to do this, they would not be able to survive this day.

However, there were still ministers from the public-military combined faction who were close to the Satsuma Domain in the imperial court, and they revealed the news to the people of the Satsuma Domain.

When Komatsu learned the news with his sword, he immediately asked Takasaki Zuotaro to find Hirosawa Tomijiro.

Hirosawa Tomijiro hurriedly informed Matsudaira Yongho. Even though Matsudaira Yongho had received the news before, he was still very surprised at this moment.

He immediately said: "Go and call Jubei!"

Hirosawa Tomijiro hurriedly arrived at the Shinsengumi camp, but Yagyu Jubei and others were not seen. Shimada Kui immediately found the inspection team, and then found Yagyu at the hothouse on Sanjo Street.

Yagyu didn't even bother to take a bath. He simply washed up, put on his clothes, and followed Hirosawa Tomijiro straight to Kurotani Komyoji Temple with the emperor's royal robe in his arms.As soon as Matsudaira Yoho saw Yagyu, he immediately pointed at Takasaki Zuotaro and said: "Jubei, what you said has come true. The Choshu clan and Sanjo Sanimi really intend to kidnap the emperor when he visits Yamato."

Takasaki Zuotaro was a little surprised. The Satsuma clan only knew about this kind of thing because a minister was in the court. How did the Shinsengumi know about it in advance?Yagyu Jubei is terrible.

Yagyu knew about this coup and did not panic at all. He immediately suggested: "What we have to do now is to get the emperor's edict, so that we can justifiably drive away the Choshu clan, Sanjo Sanimi and others."

Matsudaira Yongho asked hurriedly: "Are you looking for Lord Konoe?"

Yagyu replied: "We still have to find Nakagawa Palace. Only he can accomplish this."

Prince Asahiko of Nakagawa Palace was a member of the combined public and military sect, and was disliked by the Choshu Domain, Sanjo Sanimi and others. In order to drive the prince away, Sanjo Sanimi and others issued an edict to appoint Prince Asahiko as the envoy of Saikoku Town. However, Prince Asahiko felt that The edict is false and there is no edict.

Matsudaira Yoshiho was reminded by Yagyu, and immediately went to see former Sekishiro Konoe Tadahiro and informed him of the conspiracy between Choshu Domain and Sanjo Sanimi and others. Konoe Tadahiro was shocked and quickly found the right minister Nijo Saikei and went with Matsudaira Yoshiho. Meet Prince Nakagawa Asahiko.

Prince Chao Yan took out the edict and said: "I just said that there is something wrong with this edict. It turns out to be a conspiracy of the Choshu clan. These people are so audacious and unforgivable!

Now that the Imperial Palace is controlled by the Choshu Domain, Sanjo Sanimi and others, they will definitely prevent us from meeting the emperor. We still need to wait for the opportunity to prevent the Choshu Domain from discovering this matter. "

Konoe Tadahiro said: "The most important thing is to let the emperor know our plans."

Matsudaira Yongho thought of Yagyu, and he said: "You can let Jubei sneak into the palace to see the emperor."

Prince Nakagawa Palace Chaoyan asked in confusion: "Who is this person?"

Konoe Tadahiro also asked: "Is it reliable?"

Nijo Saikei immediately explained: "Yagyu Jubei is the director of the Shinsengumi. He has superb swordsmanship and has few opponents. Today he was praised by the emperor as a loyal minister and was rewarded with a royal robe."

Prince Zhongchuan Palace nodded and said, "Okay, this person can do it."

Songping Yongbao saluted and said: "Without further delay, I would also like to ask Nakagawa Palace to write a letter."

Prince Asahiko immediately wrote a handwritten letter and gave it to Matsudaira Yongho. Matsudaira Yongho hurried back to Kuroko Guangming Temple. In the temple, everyone was waiting for news about Matsudaira Yongho.

As soon as Matsudaira Yongho came back, he only asked Yagyu to enter the study, leaving the others at a loss.

In the study, Matsudaira Yongho lowered his voice and said: "Jubei, I have a difficult task for you. You must sneak into the palace and tell the emperor about Satsuma and Aizu's plan to join forces to deal with Choshu."

Now it was Yagyu's turn to be surprised. He was so crazy that he sneaked into the palace?This is too flattering to me, using me as a ninja.

Although the risks are great, the rewards are also great. You still have to take advantage of this greedy power.

"Okay, I will find a way to enter the palace. Please wait for the message, Lord Matsudaira."

 Thanks to Ex Curry, I will reward you with the progress of the times!
  Brothers, support me with rewards and monthly tickets!
