Chapter 13 15. Changing the Appearance and Inheriting the Famous Family

The whole of Kyoto was filled with a cheerful atmosphere at this time, and the streets were full of people buying all kinds of winter festival supplies and food. The originally wide but somewhat deserted streets were bustling with people, and the atmosphere of Kyoto was restored.

Kobayata and the village chief took a leave together. They were going to do the good thing that the village chief mentioned, and walked leisurely to Kyoto Sanjo.

Kobayata observed the style of Kyoto along the way. When Ouchi Yoshioki came, he joined Ouchi, when Hosokawa Harumoto came, he joined Hosokawa, and when Miyoshi Nagayoshi came, he joined Miyoshi. Wave after wave of military leaders entered Kyoto. It seemed that anyone in Kyoto could come and ride on them, but there seemed to be a kind of arrogance in their foundation that did not really surrender. Perhaps it takes a real hero to completely conquer this place and then control the fate of the world.

The two arrived in front of a dilapidated mansion, and the half-open door was not guarded. The creaking sound of the door shaking in the wind made a lonely sound, which matched this lonely mansion very well. Xiao Pingtai looked into the door, which was so narrow that a person could pass through it. The courtyard was desolate, so he turned around and asked the village chief: "Are you sure this is the place?"

The village chief looked around, recalled, and said: "The last time I came here was fifteen years ago. Could it be that I remembered it wrong?" So he went forward and knocked on the door. After a while, an old servant came to open the door.

The village chief then went forward and asked for an audience. The old servant looked at the two people dressed in samurai and asked in confusion about their family names and their native places. The village chief proudly said the name of the Yamanouchi family hatamoto. The old servant seemed to be ten years younger and immediately turned around and went back to report.

In less than two minutes, a middle-aged man in a washed-out gauze robe ran over to open the door and said: "Whatever Yamanouchi Sasuke wants, I will follow him."

Okay, this man is so poor that he thinks that Yamanouchi Yoshikatsu, the God of Wealth, is looking for him to spend money. The village chief smiled and asked the man: "Major General Kingo?"

The man obviously didn't react, and looked thoughtful. Then he and the old servant brought Xiao Pingtai and the village chief into the house.

After sitting down, the village chief didn't waste any words and asked directly: "Is Kinggo Chunagon still alive?" The middle-aged man had a little impression and asked: "Saemon?"

The village chief laughed and said yes. In this way, the two sides knew each other thoroughly. Fifteen years ago, the village chief had been to Kyoto as a foot soldier. He and his father were already small local tyrants at that time. He was considered rich and went back to Kyoto to find the family of Aekoji, who was Kinggo Chunagon at the time, and presented 20 kanwen. It was considered that they had a relationship.

This Kinggo Major General was called Aekoji Tsunayoshi, and his father Kinggo Chunagon was called Aekoji Tsunakan. His father had retired and was now the head of the family, but he looked poor and his family was not very good.

The village chief didn't waste any words and said directly: "My father and Kinggo Chunagon had similar interests and were not equal. I am willing to ask on your behalf to connect the same genealogy and have a long-lasting friendship."

To put it bluntly, it means that your father should recognize my father as his younger brother, okay. After hearing this, Sister Xiaoji Tsunayoshi realized that your family is rich and wants to be associated with a famous family. So she covered her face with a fan and smiled without saying anything.

The village chief did not waste words, took out a small cloth bag, and poured fifty taels of gold directly on the tatami. Xiao Pingtai instantly felt countless eyes from all directions gathered on the small pile of chess pieces and gold.

The village chief then looked like I have money and come to ask me: "Just a small gift for the cost of the marriage." Sister Xiaoji Tsunayoshi immediately changed to a solemn expression: "I really want it." So the deal was reached, and soon the King Wu Zhongnan Counshin Tsunakan took the family tree name and walked in steadily from the outside.

First, your father and I had a good relationship in the past, and we wanted to get together at that time. Now that your family is rich, it just fits this family, so your father will be named Sister Xiaoji Tsunamitsu.

As for the village chief, he and Tsunayoshi are brothers, and his name is changed to Sister Xiaoji Tsunayoshi. The village chief said that my father should not be without a title and status, and he returned a small cloth bag and said, "There are 30 taels of gold in it. If you want a position, you only need a junior fifth rank. As for me, a sixth rank captain is enough."

Then Zixiaoji Tsunakane was a little confused: "The official career of the Aexiaoji family should be the fifth rank."

The village chief said: "The young master is only a (fifth rank) Sasuke." "Oh~~" Everyone understood, Tsunari took the responsibility, and tomorrow he would recommend the village chief as a junior sixth rank Saemon captain, and as for his deceased father, a fifth rank Saemon Zuo would also be fine.

I thought the matter was over, but the village chief asked: "I don't know why my brother didn't come to see you." The father and son who had just received 80 taels of gold said casually: "My younger brother was infected with the epidemic two years ago and died first."

The village chief turned around and patted Koyata's head: "This young man is my nephew who is willing to be adopted by my younger brother to continue the family line."

The father and son of Zixiaoji looked at Koyata with an expression of what did you say. Koyata finally realized what the village chief was talking about, and took out the bag of gold he had gotten not long ago, which was about less than 20 taels.

The father and son of Aekoji looked like you, a poor guy, turned out to be so rich, and you really can't judge a person by appearance.

He immediately changed his expression to a smiling face and asked, "My dear nephew, are you willing to inherit?"

Koyata was naturally very willing. After all, no matter how bad Aekoji was, she was a branch of the Sanjo Konobu branch of the Fujiwara Kita family, Kanin-ryu, and a descendant of the regent left minister Tadahira.

The family of this Fujiwara family is still very noble, and it is really not expensive to buy one for less than 20 kan. So Koyata successfully changed his name to Aekoji Tsuna, and turned from a nobody to a high-ranking family of the Fujiwara family.
