Just as our government, which lives in modern times, has specialized ministries and departments specializing in various occupations, the Muromachi Shogunate had to set up several institutions.
Among them, important departments that form the basis of the organization Is finance / accounting was. It can be said that managing the economic base correctly and performing the paperwork that accompanies it is the organizational management itself.
Taiga drama [ Kirin ga Kuru ] Then, Yoshiaki Ashikaga was held by Nobunaga Oda and went to Kyoto.
Therefore, Yoshiaki became the 15th Shogunate of the Muromachi Shogunate and tried to rebuild the corrupt Shogunate. ] A strange person came out. It's a name I haven't seen in a certain simulation game, and I was interested in it because it was a quirky role in the drama.
Kirin comes, Akechi Mitsuhide [ Akudaikan ], But Harumon Settsu From this point of view, he can be thought of as an act of thinking about the Shogunate in his own way.
Birth of Harumon Settsu
Harumon Settsu is How to attract the Muromachi Shogunate appraisal Kanto Bugyo belonging to [ Motochika Settsu ] Was born as a child. His birth year is quite different from 1504 to 1521, and it seems that it is not clear.
The Settsu family was originally Mr. Nakahara, a samurai family from a public family . Since he was often entrusted to Settsu Mamoru for generations, he was called Settsu-den by the people around him, so it is said that he decided to call himself Settsu.
12th Shogun Yoshiharu Ashikaga At that time, he received the character of the shogun and began to call himself Harumon, 1528 . He was appointed to the fifth-ranked Jugoi Daisuke. This jugoi under the fifth rank is a position that can be called an aristocrat in the public family society, and since Harumon was promoted in his twenties, he was from a prestigious samurai family.
Mr. Settsu of the Subdistricts of China
Mr. Settsu, who was an elite house that draws the blood of a public house, is a hereditary Kanto Bugyo in the Muromachi Shogunate. I was in the position of. The status of samurai in this era was much higher than in the latter half of the Heian period, and General Ashikaga often held the post of minister.
Perhaps because of that momentum, there were cases where the shogun's subordinates were ranked fourth and third.
In other words, in this era, it became an unfashionable society for samurai to have low official positions. Inevitably, samurai want to be officials It will be a thing. The placement of officials Is Kanto Bugyo And the reward is that it was a lot of money.
Reward for agency placement Is a valuable financial resource of the Muromachi Shogunate, and Mr. Settsu, a Kanto Bugyo, was an important vassal for the shogun. For this reason, the shogunate also actively recruited influential daimyo to the lieutenants of the jurisdiction, tandai, and guardians and guardians.
In this way, Mr. Settsu and the Ashikaga Shogunate have a very close relationship, and when the 13th Shogun Yoshiteru was in the genpuku, Motochika Settsu worked, and Yoshiteru's nanny was also related to Mr. Settsu.
Mandokoro deacon, Mr. Ise's departure
1550 When the 12th Shogun Yoshiharu died, Harumon's father and former parents left home in 1562 . When his ex-parent died, he succeeded his father, who also served as a government magistrate, a local headman, and a Jingu headman, and inherited Mr. Settsu.
Around this time, the deacon of the Shogunate government office even said that Sadataka Ise, the 12th shogun Yoshiteru, would ask for Yoshiteru on the bed of death. However, with the rise of Miyoshi Nagayoshi, the 13th Shogun Yoshiteru was chased by Kyo.
Deacon of the Shogunate Mandokoro at this time, Sadataka Ise Did not accompany Yoshiteru, but stayed in Kyoto with Miyoshi. Furious at this, Yoshiteru ordered the confiscation of Sadataka's territory, but the Shogunate no longer had the power to do so.
This will worsen the relationship between Mr. Ise and the shogun family.
Harumon Settsu becomes a mandokoro deacon
1558 When Nagayoshi Miyoshi reconciled with Yoshiteru Ashikaga, Yoshiteru entered Kyoto for the first time in five years.
1561 Rokkaku of Omi dominates Kyoto in the form of restraining Miyoshi Nagayoshi. At this time as well, Sadataka Ise was doing whatever he wanted to manage the affairs of the Shogunate with Mr. Rokkaku without being on the side of the shogunate.
Yoshiteru, who was devoted to this movement of Sadataka, reconciled with Mr. Rokkaku and returned to Kyoto, where Sadataka Ise was removed . Did.
Mr. Ise's mandokoro deacon has been hereditary since 1379, but after 180 years he was dismissed. Sadataka, who is not convinced by this decision, raises troops, but is defeated and killed in the battle between Nagayoshi Miyoshi and Hisahide Matsunaga.
This was a kick-start, and Mr. Ise's influence was greatly reduced.
And 1564 Harumon Settsu who has been serving since the wandering era of Yoshiteru Ashikaga on behalf of Mr. Ise Is Mandokoro Butler It became.
Eiroku's political change and Harumon Settsu
The reason why Yoshiteru made Settsu a mandokoro deacon is that the shogunate's affairs are to be squeezed by the shogun . It seems that there was an intention. Since the establishment of the Shogunate, even Yoshimitsu Ashikaga has not been able to freely control the government office.
Also, in order for Settsu himself to develop the power of the clan, it would have been an attractive job to be a mandokoro deacon.
However, there was a troublesome person in such Settsu.
That was Matsunaga Hisahide, a senior vassal of the Miyoshi clan.
Matsunaga Hisahide and the Miyoshi faction, who were more convenient to have the shogun as a decoration, felt that Yoshiteru, who was highly conscious of the reinstatement of the shogun's power, was an obstacle.
And June 17, 1565 , Aiming that Mr. Rokkaku, who was the backing of Yoshiteru, cannot move, Miyoshi Sanjin and Matsunaga Hisamichi attack Yoshiteru at Nijo Castle in Kyoto. It is a well-established theory that this Eiroku political change led to the murder of the Shogun due to the strong refusal of the Shogun, who sent troops to the Shogun to drink their conditions. It is the current situation.
In fact, it is known that the 13th Shogun Yoshiteru Ashikaga was killed in the political change of Eiroku.
Due to this political change, Firstborn of Harumon Settsu, Chiyomaru Settsu was on the side of the shogun. Struggles, but he is killed.
Due to Yoshihide's death, the 14th Shogun is Ashikaga Yoshihide recommended by the Miyoshi faction. Has been appointed, and the shogunate mandokoro deacon, Harumon Settsu, has been dismissed. At this time, it was Mr. Ise who returned to the butler.
Returning to the mandokoro deacon with Yoshiaki Ashikaga
Coup d'etat of Eiroku Harumon lost his firstborn and was dismissed as a mandokoro deacon, but Kanto Bugyo The position of was relieved as it was. However, Ashikaga Yoshihide Harumon, who rebelled against using Mr. Ise again, did not attend the general's proclamation and himself served Ashikaga Yoshiaki . It will be like.
1568 when Yoshiaki Ashikaga, who spent his time in exile, was under the patronage of Nobunaga Oda and played a role in Joraku. He returned to the mandokoro deacon again. But 1571 Ise Sadaoki I was robbed by.
It is said that Harumon became ill with Yoshiaki as the reason for this, but at that time he became a deacon of the government office Sadaoki Ise . Was only nine years old, and Nobunaga was acting on behalf of that job, so it is presumed that it was a dismissal play under Nobunaga's pressure.
Since then, there are no records of Harumon Settsu, and it is believed that he retired or died shortly thereafter. There are too few historical materials to understand, but the above is [ Kirin ga Kuru . ] Is said to be the worst villain [ Harumon Settsu ] Was introduced.
It's almost time for [ Harumon Settsu ] Will be sent off in the drama, but I would like to enjoy the frustrating Tsurutaro Kataoka's Harumon next week as well.
