<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">·“ Tokugawa Value"</h1>
In active combat, every time the player uses the Seal Cage skill, the yellow bar "Tokugawa Value" ("Tokugawa Degree") on the left side of the screen will increase; the increase in the yellow bar means an increase in difficulty - I don't think there should be too many players who want to face the final boss in the state of The Full Tokugawa Value, except for the Kryptonian and the Giant. So the question is: what is this "Tokugawa value"?
The yellow bar on the left is the "Tokugawa value"
In the first part of this article, the origin of all the seal cage skills has been sorted out; although the order in which the seal cage skills are acquired during the event will vary depending on the player's operation, when all the seal cages are upgraded to the end, they will surely become the three skills corresponding to the last shogun Tokugawa Keiki - "Daisei Fenghui", "Wangzheng Retro Grand Order" and "Bloodless Kaijo";
In other words, the development of the inoku skill will eventually turn into the "demise of the shogunate" - that is, the player's use of the inkane skill is equivalent to advancing a point on a coordinate axis, and the coordinate axis is the 265-year kunijo of the Edo shogunate; the more the skill is used, the more dangerous the player's situation will become like the situation of the Edo shogunate. When the Tokugawa value is full, it will fall into a critical situation like the end of the curtain. This part of the setting is also explained later in the plot of the event, so it will not be repeated.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">·“ The Prime Minister in Black"</h1>
If you read the entry for "Seal Cage Skills" in Part I, you may find that the Seal Cage Skills cover all the generations of shoguns of the Edo shogunate, but there is no third generation of shoguns. The specific reasons involve some spoilers, so I won't directly point them out here; however, some of the content about the three generations of shoguns is worth talking about, and this part of the content can help readers clarify the main character settings of the "Tokugawa Goten Labyrinth Daio" to a certain extent.
Tokugawa Iemitsu
Historically, the ascension of three generations of shoguns, Tokugawa Iemitsu, to the throne was not an easy task; including his reign, it was not smooth sailing. What contributed to the ascension of Iemitsu to the throne and the ability to defend the world were the four important characters who appeared in the plot - Nanguangfang Tenkai, Kasuga Bureau, Yanagi Sōji, and Matsudaira Nobutsu. The latter three will be put aside for the time being, and let's talk about this "black-clad prime minister" who did not show the mountains and dew in the early days of Edo, but promoted the operation of the entire shogunate behind his back- Nanguangfang Tenkai.
Nanguangfang Tianhai
Nanguangfang Tianhai (?) –1643), a monk and politician of the early Edo period, also known as tenkai daimyō. The first half of his life was shrouded in fog, and there were almost no records of his birth time, and there were even 12 theories of his birth time; however, according to the Edo period, Tenkai was over 100 years old when he died, so it is speculated that his birth time may have been in the fifth year of Tenshō (1536). It is said that in his early years, he became a monk at Ryūko-ji Temple, with the title of "Suikaze", and then went to Tonkawa-ji Temple in Shimono Kingdom, Hieiyama Enriji Temple, Enjo-ji Temple, yamato Kokufuku-ji Temple in Omi Kingdom, and in the second year of Motokame (1571), after Oda Nobunaga burned Mt. Hiei, he was recruited by Takeda Shingen to go to Kai-kuni, and then to Kurokawa Castle Inari-do under the Ashi-nomori clan, all the way to Ueno Kuni Nagaraku-ji Temple and Musashi Province's Mutsukuju Temple North Courtyard, and finally changed his name to "Tenkai" at the North Courtyard of Mutsuju-ji Temple. He also served as the abbot of the Edozaki Fudoin Temple. According to the historical records of Sensoji Temple, during the Battle of Odawara, Tenkai and The abbot of Sensoji Temple, Tadahito, accompanied Tokugawa Ieyasu on the battlefield, which became an opportunity for Tenkai to be invited by Ieyasu to the Kanto region.
After that, Tenkai served as abbot of the Northern Temple of Mutsuju-ji Temple, and served Astorawa Ieyasu as a staff officer during the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600. After the Battle of Sekigahara, Tianhai traveled as a diplomatic monk and staff officer of Ieyasu, and successively participated in negotiations with the imperial court, the reconstruction of the Yanli Temple of Mount Hiei, the reconstruction of the North Courtyard of the Muliangshou Temple, and the Zaixing Guangming Temple.
The reason why Namkobo Tenkai is called "Black-clad Prime Minister" is because Tenkai intervened in many major political events at the end of the Sengoku period and the early Edo period as a monk: the Tokugawa clan provoked the Fuseki war against the Toyotomi clan, the "Fangguangji Jongmyo Incident", which had the operation of Tenkai; when Ieyasu was critically ill in the second year of Motowa (1616), Tenkai proposed to the second-generation general Tokugawa Hidetada that "Tosho daigun" as the god name of Ieyasu after his death, and finally it was adopted; later, Tenkai presided over the construction of Nikko Toshogu Shrine dedicated to Tokugawa Ieyasu. He also secretly supported Tokugawa Iemitsu in disagreements over the succession of the three shoguns, and eventually led to the latter's successful ascension to the throne; during the three generations of shogun iemitsu, Tenkai established Kanei-ji Temple at the "Onimon Gate" in the northeast of Edo, as the Bodhi Temple of the Tendai Sect's Kanto Shogun Motoyama and Tokugawa Shogun's family, and the core of the feng shui town of Edo.

In order to continue the shogunate's rule, Tenkai, who was proficient in yin and yang feng shui, once told Tokugawa Ieyasu that the yin and yang feng shui way should be used as the principle to build Edo Castle, and Ieyasu put Tenkai in charge of the matter. Under the planning of Tenkai, Edo Castle set up 7 shrines, Chikujo Hachiman Shrine, Kanda Akimi, Shomonzuka Shrine, Dojin Shrine, Torikoshi Shrine, and Armor Shrine; in addition to the Torigoshi Shrine dedicated to the Japanese samurai, the other 7 shrines are dedicated to hiratsumon's armor, helmets, crowns, and other items, arranged in the shape of the Hokuto Seven Stars, with the most central Hiratsumon Nozuka as the energy source, using the mana of the Wraijin Hiraimon Gate to isolate the attack on the left side gate of the side gate to Edo; in addition, Tenkai also used The Kanei-ji Temple in the northeast of Edo Castle and Shōjo-ji Temple in the southwest to hold the "Ghost Gate" of Edo, and proposed that the Mito Tokugawa family be moved to the vicinity of The Kanei-ji Temple in the northeast of Edo to prevent the ghost gate from being empty and causing disaster. Using this method, Tenkai built the foundation of feng shui in Edo Castle, which eventually laid the foundation of the Tokugawa shogunate for nearly three hundred years of Taiping.
Because the first half of Nanguangfang Tianhai's life was too confusing, there has been a lot of speculation in the field of historians about its true identity. One of the calligraphies that is not the mainstream of historical research, but is widely known at the popular level, is "Nanguangfang Tianhai is the embodiment of the wise Guangxiu". There is no ironclad evidence for this statement, but there are also some doubts that are difficult to completely deny, such as the handwriting of Tianhai and the handwriting of Wise Mitsuhide, the appearance of many wise Mitsuhide's family tattoos "orange stalks" in the decoration of Toshogu Palace, and the fact that the first half of their lives are almost difficult to verify, and so on. Although the mainstream view of historians is that Nanguangfang Tianhai and Zhizhi Guangxiu are two people who have no connection or are related by blood, various literary and artistic works have tirelessly set the two people as the same person, and FGO has adopted this hypothesis.
In the above two games, the setting of "Guangxiu Tianhai One Man Says" is adopted
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">·“ Three Ding Foot"</h1>
During the Tokugawa Iemitsu period, there were three ministers who devoted themselves to his rule, namely Tokugawa Iemitsu's nursing mother, Kasuga Bureau, who served as the chief administrator of the Otsuku, "Gonen-ji", shogun's swordsmanship guide, shogun Daimofu, and Yanagi Mori Muneyoshi, who resembled Iemitsu's adoptive father, and Nobuyasu Matsudaira, a shogun who served Iemitsu since childhood and was known as the "Wisdom Izu". These three men bowed to the lord Tokugawa Iemitsu and were regarded as the most powerful heroes of Iemitsu's rule, so they were known as the "Three Feet" (鼎の三足).
< h2 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >-Kasuga</h2>
Kasuga Bureau
Kasuga Bureau (1579-1643), whose real name was Saito Fuku, and whose father was Mitsuhide's subordinate Toshizo Saito – some researchers believe that it was because of this relationship that Mitsuhide, who assumed the pseudonym "Nankobo Tenkai", would secretly support Tokugawa Iemitsu in the battle for the successors of the three shoguns; his husband, Masanari Inaba, successfully instigated Hideaki Kohayakawa to defect in the Battle of Sekigahara, causing the collapse of the Western Army, and can be said to be the behind-the-scenes hero of Tokugawa Ieyasu's victory. With the above layers of relationships, coupled with the recommendation of Kyoto's Shoji Itakura Katsushige and Kyoto's Secretary of State Sanjo Nishishishijo, Saito Fuku succeeded in serving as Takechiyo's wet nurse when shogun Hidetada's shomuro Shogen-in (Asai River) gave birth to his eldest son, Takechiyo. After becoming Takechiyo's nursing mother, Saitofuku's husband, Inaba Masanari, refused the opportunity to become a shogun and divorced Afuku, but the eldest son of the two, Inaba Masakatsu, became Takechiyo's milk brother and minor surname, and later took up the position of old middle school.
Nanguangfang Tenkai and Saito Fuku in Renwang
Unlike ordinary women, Saito Fuku has a bold and straightforward personality, and once killed two robbers who broke into the house; but it is such a woman who is not inferior to men in every aspect, and gives everything unreservedly to Takechiyo, whom she raised. Because Takechiyo had been taken away from his biological parents since birth and had a weak relationship with his biological parents, So Chogen-in took him with him to raise him personally after the birth of his next son, Chiyo, and even had the intention of establishing Chiyo as the heir; most of the shoguns also believed that Kuni Chiyo would inherit the position of shogun and fell to the Kunimichiyo faction, making the original introverted Takechiyo even more disadvantaged.
"Kasuga Bureau Pick-up Stealing" (Kasuga Bureau Fights Robbery), 约 1880, An Ginko
Takechiyo, who was already weak, mediocre in appearance, and slightly stuttering, looked at the performance of his courtiers with anger but helplessness, so he became more and more passive and pessimistic; until he attempted suicide, the impatient Saito Fuku finally could not see it. She pretended to go to Ise Jingu Shrine to pray for Takechiyo's disaster relief, but in fact secretly changed her route to Surufu Castle, where Tokugawa Ieyasu was located at the Imperial Palace, and told Ieyasu about the injustices suffered by Takechiyo. Surprised by this, Ieyasu then explicitly proposed to Tokugawa Hidetada and even to the world that "Takechiyo is the successor to the shogun" and that "the distinction between concubines should be strictly observed"; in the face of his father Ieyasu, whose authority was not diminished, Hidetada understood that his hopes of establishing the second son, Chiyo, as the successor had failed, so he had to face up to the succession of his eldest son, Takechiyo, and it can be said that in the future, Takechiyo can become a shogun, and Kasuga Bureau can be said to be the number one hero (of course, Nanguangfang Tenkai as the political staff of the shogunate is behind the scenes.) It is also something that cannot be ignored).
In the second year of Motowa (1616), Tokugawa Ieyasu died, which delayed Takechiyo's moto-gown ceremony for four years. In the sixth year of Motowa (1620), Takechiyo Motofu changed his name to Tokugawa Iemitsu and received the post of Masamune Kwon Daimyō from the imperial court. After becoming a shogun, Iemitsu placed greater trust in his nursing mother, Saito Fuku, who cared more about him like his own mother, and entrusted all the affairs of Daio to Saito Fuku, and Saito Fuku also lived up to Iemitsu's trust, using fierce and skillful political skills to manage The affairs of Tai'ao in an orderly manner, and participated in some of the affairs of the shogunate, and even influenced the life and death of the shogunate, reflecting an outstanding political literacy.
In the sixth year of Kanei (1629), Saito Fuku met Emperor Go-Mizuo as the nursing mother of Iemitsu and the sister of The Kogoshin Sanjo Nishishijō Yoshinori, and was awarded the title of "Kasuga Bureau" and enjoyed three ranks. During this visit, Saito fukuted the abdication of Emperor Go-Mizu and the ceding of the throne to Prince Hiroko Uchi, who was of Tokugawa family ancestry (his mother and son were the daughter of the second shogun Tokugawa Hidetada and the sister of Tokugawa Iemitsu), prompting the Tokugawa family lineage to occupy a dominant position in the imperial family (Prince Koshiuchi became Emperor Akasa after he ascended the throne, the second female emperor in Japanese history) – it can be seen that Kasugain, as a mature politician, was no less politically skilled and influential than the male politicians of his time. Even above the eyebrows.
Although politically fierce, Saito Fuku has never forgotten his identity as a nursing mother of the family, and has spent his life thinking about the family light as if he were his own. In the sixth year of Motowa (1620), Iemitsu accidentally contracted smallpox and was never cured after various treatments; the impatient Saito Fuku even wanted to pray to the gods, hoping to exchange his lifelong medication for Iemitsu's healing. Later, Iemitsu survived smallpox, and Saito Fukuroku kept his promise and never took medicine again. When she fell ill in her later years, the waiter persuaded her to take the medicine, and Kasuga Bureau refused on the grounds that "I cannot renege on my vows with Lord Iemitsu and the gods"; even if Tokugawa Iemitsu personally fed her the medicine, Kasuga Bureau only pretended to take it, and spit out the medicine as soon as Iemitsu left, so as to prevent the unknown disaster to Iemitsu because of his renegation.
From the daughter of a thief of a chaotic courtier, to the nursing mother of three generations of generals, to the imperial nianji of the powerful Daio, Kasuga Bureau achieved achievements that many men could not hope to achieve with the body of a female stream. When the world of his "son", Tokugawa Iemitsu, was already as stable as a rock, in the nineteenth year of Kanei (1642), the 65-year-old Kasuga Bureau died suddenly, and the legal name was "Linxiangyuan Hall Renyuan Yoshini Sister" (Linxiangyuan Hall Renyuan Inuya Rinni Daima), and his death sentence was "Invite Nishi to sink the moon, and the law of the Ming Dynasty." Even when he was terminally ill, Kasuga Bureau never drank a single sip of medicine, and until finally he prayed for peace and happiness for Tokugawa Iemitsu as a "mother".
Kasuga Bureau Cemetery is located in Linxiang-in Temple, Tokyo. In addition, the tombs of Kasuga Bureau also exist at Shōta-ji Temple in Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and The Golden Ring Hikaru-ji Temple in Kyoto City
<h2 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >-Liusheng Zongji</h2>
Liu Sheng Zongji
As one of the middle of the "Liusheng Three Heavenly Dogs", Liusheng Zongzhi (1571-1646) was far less influential in later life than his father Liusheng Shizhou Zhai Zongyan and son Liusheng Shibing Wei Sanyan - after all, most people pay attention to the beginning and the end, Shi Zhouzhai is a sword saint Shangquan Shingang Gao disciple, Liu Sheng Xinyin Liu Kaizu, and The Ten Bingwei is a legendary one-eyed genius swordsman who is favored by various literary and artistic works; in contrast, Liu Sheng Zongji, who is in a high position, is often portrayed as an evil official, and there is not much anecdote. However, it was such a character that developed the Yanagi family from an unknown family of swordsmanship to the pinnacle of swordsmanship in all of Japan, and at the same time became a legend in the shogunate's political arena.
The Yanagi clan was originally a Yamato clan of Kuni, who served the Tsutsui clan and the Miyoshi clan, and after Miyoshi Nagayoshi's death, Yanagi served Oda Nobunaga again. After Nobunaga's death, Yanagi Wasō Muneyoshi was found to have concealed the land and failed to report it during the land inspection carried out by Taiko Toyotomi Hideyoshi, resulting in the confiscation of all the territory and the transformation of Yanagi Ichimon into the Ronin. It was not until the third year of Bunroku (1594) that Munakata, at the recommendation of Kuroda Nagamasa, met Tokugawa Ieyasu in the village of Shichitake on the outskirts of Kyoto, and demonstrated the Upanishads of the new drainage, "No Sword To Take"; Ieyasu, who lamented the divine skill of the new Yin Stream, pleaded with Munakata to be out of his own hands, but Munakata refused to do so, and instead recommended his son Yanagi Munomasa to become ieyasu's vassal, and finally made Munei Magome a vassal of Ieyasu for 200 stones.
In the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600, Yanagi Munjo replaced his father Munakata, and after the war, he regained the 2,000-stone domain of Yanagi Zojo in Yamato Kingdom for meritorious service; the following year, Yanagi Munjo was appointed as the swordsmanship guide of the second generation of shoguns (the Japanese school of swordsmanship is not only a simple cultivation of swordsmanship, but also involves many martial arts important matters such as martial arts and command; the so-called "swordsmanship guide service" is actually to provide guidance in swordsmanship, martial arts and other aspects, and sometimes write "military guide service"), and at the same time, 1000 stones are sealed. He became the banner of the shogunate as a 3,000-stone soldier; during the Battle of Osaka, Yanagi Served as a staff officer and personal bodyguard in towkawa Hidetada's tent, and single-handedly beheaded 7 assassins (the number of accounts are different) in order to protect the shoguns– this is the only record of Yanagi's actual combat beheading recorded in the annals of history.
In the following year of the Battle of Osaka (1616), Yanagi Munomasa actively maneuvered between the shogunate and his friend Sakazaki Naomori who was plotting rebellion (the Sakazaki Incident), and finally successfully persuaded Sakazaki Naomori to commit suicide as a conclusion, receiving the other party's family tattoo "Ergai Kasa" (二蓋笠) as a thank you gift; in the seventh year of Motowa (1621), Yanagi Munomasa became Tokugawa Iemitsu's guide to the art of war, teaching him the art of war and the shin yin stream swordplay. The two were like father and son, and immediately after Keimitsu ascended to the position of shogun, he granted Munjo the post of five subordinates to the position of Ma Shou, and in the ninth year of Kanei (1632), he was given the title of 3,000 stones, appointed him to be the shogunate's Daimofu (惣目付), responsible for supervising the shogunate's hundred officials and local daimyōs - among the 4 daimyōs at that time, Yanagi Washeng Zongju was the most senior, the oldest, and the highest status, which showed the supreme trust and reliance of the three generations of shoguns; Due to Yanagi's contribution to the shogunate, Iemitsu added another 4,000 stones to the thirteenth year of Kanei (1636), making Yanagi Munjo a daimyō of 10,000 stones and establishing yanagi domain in Yamato, and four years later, Iemitsu added 2,500 stones to the shogunate (of which 2,000 stones were the legacy of the second son of Theamu Yoshinori, the second son of Sombu). Becoming a daimyō as a swordsman and ranking at the top of the political arena is a unique example in the entire history of Japan.
The original family pattern of the Yanagi family was "Ground Elm Inner Two Feather Flying Finch" (地楡に雀). Di Yu (われもこう, also written "I Yi Hong") is a medicinal plant of the Rosaceae family with the effect of cooling blood and stopping bleeding, clearing heat and detoxification, which was often used in ancient times to treat sword damage, closely related to the Yanagi family's generations of swordsmanship; in the FGO, Liu Sheng Butma Shou Zongzong's initial and Ichibu stand paintings, the chest of his clothing is printed with this family pattern
Ground elm leaves
Ergai Kasa, later became a substitute for the Yanagi family, also known as "Liu Sheng Er Gai Kasa"
Compared with the general swordplay guidance, Liu Sheng Zongzhi rarely personally competed with Jiaguang, but focused on letting Jiaguang observe his own contest with his eldest son, Liu ShengShibei, because Zongzong believed that "the general is the one who governs the world, and there is no need to improve his swordplay", and he himself pays more attention to the cultivation of Jiaguang's political ability; in addition to the guidance of swordsmanship and martial arts, Liusheng Zongju often accompanies Jiaguang to hawk hunting, and cultivates Jiaguang's tea ceremony, waka and other abilities, and is the conversation object of the young general when he appreciates noh drama and participates in tea parties. This made the family look at YanagiSei as a father, and the Yanagi-sheng Shibei were also like good friends and brothers--of course, this kind of observation-based teaching method rarely had the opportunity to practice, and occasionally gave the young and vigorous general some unrealistic illusions: one night, Iemitsu, who thought that his swordplay had been completed, sneaked out of Edo Castle, intending to find a sword test opponent, only to be bumped into by the night-patrolling Yanagi Shibei and thrown into the moat ditch by the Ten Guards; after the end, the Ten Guards arrested people and looked at it, and the scene was very embarrassing... Folklore later that the deposing of Yanagi Washibei was related to this matter, and the specific anecdotes are not listed here.
In his later years, Yanagi returned to Yanagiseiso, the domain of Yamato Domain, and fell ill and was bedridden in the third year of Masaho (1646). On March 20, when Zong Zhi was seriously ill, Jia Guang personally came to visit and consult the mysteries of the New Yin Stream, asked Zong Zhi whether he still had unfulfilled wishes, and ordered him not to be taboo and speak bluntly. On March 26, Yanagi died at the age of 76, and his body was cremated and buried at Hirotoku-ji Temple, Shōsei-san, Wherea trained horses in Toshima Prefecture. After his death, Iemitsu gave him the rank of subordinate from the four subordinates, and praised him in the posthumous gift book as "unparalleled in swordsmanship" - being awarded from the four subordinates as 10,000 stones was a unique exception at that time, which also showed the depth of Iemitsu's trust and nostalgia for the Zongji.
Yanagi Mune, who served the three generations of generals Ieyasu, Hidetada, and Iemitsu, was a master of martial arts and swordsmanship in the early Edo period, and was known as "the unparalleled master of ancient and modern times" (Immovable Wisdom Divine Records), "The Phoenix of the SwordPlayer" (a short biography of the martial arts of the dynasty), "(Sword skills) above his father Ishikasa" (fencing series), "Swordplay Ancient and Modern Solo" (Tokugawa Shiki), and the "living sword" advocated by him was given the connotation of "killing one evil person and living ten thousand people" in the Taiping dynasty of the Edo period, and at the same time, he was influenced by the ideas of his friend Sawa ann Muneyoshi "Sword Zen as one", Liu Sheng Zongzhi combined the practice of Zen with swordplay, attached great importance to the "mental method", paid more attention to the purification of the soul and the cultivation of the psychological level of swordplay, and sublimated the killing technique into a self-cultivation "Tao", providing reference for many swordplay schools in later generations. Because of this, his surviving swordsmanship theory book "The Tale of the Martial Arts" and Miyamoto Musashi's "Book of the Five Wheels" are collectively known as the two great peaks of the number of martial arts in recent times; and after the Yanagi Shogunate, the Yanagi family has been the swordsmanship guide of the shogun family for generations, becoming the highest-ranking swordsmanship family in Japan (which makes the Yanagi family standing with the shogunate in many film and television works such as "The Conspiracy of the Yanagi Family" and "The Wolf with the Belt" often become the opposite role).
The Tomb of Yanagi Munjo is located at Futaku-ji Temple, Kamiyama, Yanagishigita-cho, Nara City. Fangde Temple was built by Zongzhi's friend Sawa-an Zongpeng and later became the Bodhi Temple of the Yanagi family; the first abbot of Fangdeji Temple, Lietang Yixian, was the son of Liusheng Zongji
<h2 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >-Matsudaira Shingen</h2>
Matsudaira Nobuyoshi
Unlike the other two retainers in the "Three Dingzu" who assisted Tokugawa Iemitsu as elders, Matsudaira Nobutsu (1596-1662), who was born in the Ōkawa clan (Nagasawa Matsudaira clan), and Tokugawa Iemitsu were a pair of masters and subordinates who grew up together. Shortly after Iemitsu's birth, his grandfather Tokugawa Ieyasu searched for a nursing mother and a waitress for Iemitsu, and it was at this time that 9-year-old Nagashiro Matsudaira, later Nobutsu, became Iemitsu's minor surname along with Nanosuke Okabe (Okabe Naganosuke) and Inaba Chikumaru (Masakatsu Inaba). In the sixteenth year of Keicho (1611), Nagashiro Motofu changed his name to Masanaga — but during the period from the fifteenth year of Keishō (1610) to Motofu, Nagashiro did not serve the young Takechiyo, but instead recuperated in the countryside due to stomach ailments, and returned to Edo after Motobu.
Matsudaira Nobuoka's original family pattern "Lying Butterfly Inner Sixteen-petal Chrysanthemum" (臥 butterfly に六木菊), also known as "Izu Butterfly". During the Warring States period, the people of Sanhe, Yuanjiang and other countries formed a "Chrysanthemum" crowd, marked by the sixteen-petal chrysanthemum; the Great Hanoi clan, which participated in it, combined the sixteen-petal chrysanthemum with the original lying butterfly pattern, resulting in the later family pattern.
Another family pattern of Shingang is "Sanben Fan" (三つ扇). It is said that in the sixth year of Motowa (1620), the then shogun Tokugawa Hidetada summoned Nobunaga to inquire about the parameters of a certain bridge; when asked about the curvature of the bridge, Nobunaga opened a folding fan and used the arc of the folding fan to describe it, which was appreciated by the shogun, so he gave him the pattern of "Mihoku Fan"
In the sixth year of YuanHe (1620), Matsudaira Masanaga was first awarded the title of Fenglu (俸禄), with a stone height of 500 stones; at the end of that year, due to the birth of the son of his adoptive father Matsudaira Masamune, Masanaga returned the "正" character inherited from his adoptive father to his adoptive father and changed his name to "Shingang". In the ninth year of Motowa (1623), Matsudaira Nobunaga was appointed as Iemitsu's imperial family name group Fantou (similar to the group leader), receiving a 300-stone crown, and then following Iemitsu Shangluo, he received the official position from the five lower Izumori, and later received the sword gift of wine from Iemitsu, and was promoted from the fourth position. After that, Matsudaira Nobutsu had steadily risen to prominence as a close vassal of Iemitsu, and by November of the ninth year of Kanei (1632), he had assumed the position of shogunate and was advising the construction of the shogunate as a shogun. If this were the case, then Matsudaira Nobuyasu may have been recorded by later generations as a single "noh official"; but a war that occurred in the fourteenth year of Kanei (1637) changed Nobunaga, which was the "Shimabara Rebellion".
In October of the fourteenth year of Kanei, a rebellion of Catholics and peasants broke out in The Shimabara and Amakusa Prefectures of Hizen Kuni. The original lords of the Hizen Kingdom were all Catholics, and after the establishment of the Edo shogunate, catholics were persecuted, and the local daimyo Matsukura Shigemasa and Matsukura Katsuya, while persecuting Shimabara Catholics, exploited the local peasants. Since the eleventh year of Kanei (1634), the local government has suffered a poor harvest and is unable to bear the taxation and servitude, but the lord has ignored it and continued to oppress, and finally the persecution of the peasants in the village of Nanduanjin in Shimabara and the wife of The Three Right Guards in October of the fourteenth year of Kanei (1637) as the trigger directly triggered a large-scale rebellion in Shimabara and Amakusa (and the wife of the three right guards is located in Amakusa). The rebels elected the 16-year-old Amakusa Shiro as the leader, and the momentum grew, and soon a huge force of tens of thousands of people including peasants, craftsmen, slaves, Catholics, Buddhists, and ronin was formed. When Tokugawa Iemitsu heard the news, he was amazed that the uprising was "like the past Xiangzong", and quickly dispatched troops to suppress the uprising, while ordering the major names of Kyushu to assist in the suppression; Ichigo adopted the tactic of cage castle and began to fight a long war of attrition.

A screen that reflects the Shimabara Rebellion
At that time, Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was far away in Edo, wondered why he had not been able to annihilate the Ichijō army for a long time, and sent Matsuda Nobutsu and Toda Clan Iron to Shimabara to check the situation and discuss the disposition after the suppression. Fearing that he would be punished for his poor command, it was the shogun of the shogunate army, Itakura Shigemasa, who led an army in a surprise attack, only to be killed by the rebel army and killed on the battlefield. Matsudaira Nobuyoshi could only be ordered in the face of danger, replacing Shigemasa, who had died in battle, as the commander-in-chief to continue to command the battle. Nobuyasu learned the lessons of Itakura Shigemasa, changed the tactics of active attack, and instead waited for work, only besieged but did not attack, and contacted the Dutch warships to provide shelling support, and finally when the Ichigo army ran out of ammunition, Matsudaira Nobutsuya, together with Tachibana Muneshige, Mizuno Katsunari, Kuroda Kazunari and other veterans of the battlefield, attacked Hara Castle, and finally killed all the people. After the war, Matsudaira Nobuyasu was furious when he learned the cause of Ichisuke and liquidated two faint-hearted lords, Matsukura Katsuya and Terasawa Kencho, the former of whom was beheaded and the latter's domain confiscated as ronin.
After returning to Edo, Matsudaira Nobutsune was awarded the title of Kawagoe Domain 60,000 stones for his efforts in suppressing the Shimabara Rebellion (Matsudaira Nobutsune was a think-tank figure in the shogunate in the later literary work "The Rebirth of the Demon Realm" set against the backdrop of the Shimabara Rebellion). Matsudaira Nobuyasu, who was the chief of the old middle school, accelerated the establishment of the shogunate system, took the lead in setting an example in the construction of the domain, supported the preparation of Kawagoe Castle Town, rectified the Kawagoe Subdistrict and the new riverbank river, set up a fire-fighting reservoir "Tamagawa Shangshui" to prevent mountain fires, vigorously promoted agricultural revitalization, consolidated the foundation of the Kawagoe domain, and provided reference for other daimyōs. At the same time, with the lessons of the Shimabara Rebellion, Shingen advocated the establishment of a system of lock-in countries to prevent the next rebellion after the spread of foreign religions in the country, and advocated the revision of the Samurai Laws to restrain the behavior of the daimyō to reduce the possibility of rebellion by the people within the territory.
Tamagawa Josui
In the fourth year of Gyeongan (1651), the third generation of generals Iemitsu died. Unlike other vassals who were martyred to declare their loyalty, Nobunaga chose to continue to assist Iemitsu's concubine, the young four-generation shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu. After the death of the political strongman RenJiaguang, the stable situation in the world was once cracked, and almost at the same time as the death of The Family Light, a riot called the "Gyeongan Rebellion" ("Yubi Masayuki Rebellion") broke out, and later in the first year of the Cheng dynasty (1652), there was a "Change of Promise" ("Tojisho Zuoweimen Rebellion"), and in the third year of the Ming Calendar (1657), there was a ming calendar fire that almost destroyed 1/3 of Edo. As a busy man in the shogunate, Nobutsune was busy suppressing riots and dealing with the aftermath all day, and gradually dragged down his body in constant labor. By the second year of Kuanwen (1662), Nobunaga had been knocked down by illness and had to leave all government affairs to Nagao Huigang; however, after a brief improvement in medication, Nobunaga returned to work. It was not until a few days later that the old disease recurred, and realizing that he had little time, Nobusuke entrusted the affairs to the other elders, and left a last word, hoping that Abe Tadaoaki, who was also an old man, would take care of his son Matsudaira Huigang, who was not deeply involved in the world. On March 16 of the same year, Matsudaira Nobutsu, who had bowed to the two generations of generals Iemitsu and Iegang, died at the age of 67 (at the age of fiction), and his legal title was "Matsubayashi Temple Qiande Quanliang Daijushi" (Matsubayashi Temple) (Matsubayashi Temple Qiande Quanliang Daijue), and his body was buried in The Pinglin Temple, where the wildfire in the present-day Xinzuo City, Saitama Prefecture, stopped.

However, it is such a politician who is almost impeccable in political work, and has been criticized by some people as "talented and immoral" - this is because Matsudaira Nobuyuki has almost no interest in things outside of work, never participates in tea parties, songs, Go, shogi and other entertainment activities, never drinks alcohol at home, and the only hobby is to summon people to discuss political affairs in his spare time. Probably for him, solving problems for the lord is the greatest pleasure, so he can be tireless and not pursue entertainment and leisure.
In addition, some folklore adds some color to the relationship between Tokugawa Iemitsu and Matsudaira Nobutsu. Probably influenced by the open struggle between his own mother and his nursing mother from an early age, Iemitsu lacked interest in women for a considerable period of time after adulthood, which upset the Kasuga Bureau- this phenomenon gradually disappeared after marrying Wannokata (Nagamitsu-in); and in some legends of the Edo period and even later generations, the family light with the habit of breaking sleeves was often ambiguous with Matsudaira Nobunaga, who had been with him since childhood, and even after the birth of his eldest son, he still remembered the shin-chan, and the word "tsunade" in the name of his son Tokugawa Ieyasu was said to come from Matsudaira Nobunaga.
