Tokugawa Ieyasu

Episode 42:
The Winds of the World

July, 1604.

Ieyasu, who received news of
the birth of Hidetada's son,

announced that it shall
be named, 'Takechiyo'.

A new heir is born!

The castle was
filled with joy.

Indeed, the birth of an
heir is cause for celebration,

but our lord seems to be
overly ecstatic.

You think all I say now
is his name?

No...

Hidetada didn't
have a son 'til now.

But now that he does,

I want to make sure my wives
and others around us

don't harbor false hopes
for their offsprings.

I'm filled with awe.

Reporting!

Nagayasu?

Hon'ami Koetsu, who accompanied
me from Kyoto,

has a secret to disclose
to you, Sire.

Lady Sakae, who was Princess
Sen's maid was fired.

What?

She's pregnant and wants her
fiancé to ask for her release.

Wait, what is
this all about?

Lady Sakae was raped.

Raped?

Yes, by Lord Hideyori
of Osaka Castle.

Does Lady Yodo know
about this?

Yes, I heard she had an
argument with her son.

I see...

If she is falsely accused
of being disloyal and fired,

there's a danger that
she may kill herself.

His mother is responsible
for letting her son misbehave.

It's a fact that I
was hoping for a son

to be born between Hideyori
and Princess Sen

who will be the future
Shogun.

Yet indeed a son is
born to them...

Reporting!

A messenger from the Shogun,

Okubo Nagayasu
requests your audience.

What?

I will change my attitude now
that the Shogun knows of this.

What do you mean?

It only means that my young
lord matured a bit too soon.

All I can do is for the
Shogun, Lord Hidetada,

Princess Sen, and Lady Sakae
to recognize this baby.

The late Regent's blood flows
in Lady Sakae's child.

I would like Lady Sakae to be
my young son's concubine.

I see.

Omitsu was taken to Katagiri
Katsumoto's house.

Lady Yodo wants you to
stay away for a while.

When the baby is born, she
wants you to give it up.

What about Princess Sen?

Don't worry.

I told her you are recovering
from an illness.

Thank you. That was
my biggest concern.

Reporting!

Sir Chaya Matashiro is here.

Matashiro?

Sir Chaya, I thought
you were in Nagasaki.

I just returned and gave my
greetings to the Shogun.

I heard that you and Omitsu
were here and came to see you.

Do you have some stories
from your trip?

The Shogun said there will
be no more wars,

so I can set out on my
ship to see the world.

Omitsu?

Yes?

I must work on sending our
ships out to the seas.

As soon as I'm finished,
I'll ask for your release,

until then, please work hard
in serving the Toyotomi clan.

Matashiro...

Then we can get married.

I understand.
I'll work until then.

Just as expected of
two lovers.

I'm glad Sir Chaya convinced
her to continue.

Omitsu was raised very care
fully as the grand-daughter

of the great Naya
Shoan of Sakai.

She knew that if she
killed herself,

she would create a conflict
between the two clans.

This case is settled now.

This year marks the 7th
anniversary of the Regent's death.

I'll suggest to the Shogun that
he make it a grand celebration.

There's so much gold coming
out of the island of Sado

so we can use it to surprise
the Kyoto residents

and celebrate the wealth
of our country.

A festival?

Right.

That will unify the
hearts of the people,

and lift the spirits of
the Osaka residents

who were saddened by the
birth of an heir in Edo.

Just as expected of you,
it's a keen insight.

Not only will we show the
entire country that

peace has planted it's
roots in the country,

but the Jesuits from
Portugal will see it, too.

The Portuguese?

Right.

Then they will spread
the news to the world.

We can send out our government
authorized ships,

and the foreign ships will
come by the hordes.

What's strange is when you
dig with that in mind,

gold just pours out
of the mines!

Isn't this strange?

If there is such a mountain,
I'd like to go there.

I'll take you there.

The first time I saw you,
I wanted to take you there.

Nagayasu was dreaming.

His dream grew big in
his drunken stupor.

What is your dream?
Tell me.

From the time I saw huge gold
nuggets in Osaka,

my dream was to enjoy trade in
a grand scale with the world.

The future of our country
relies on this great task.

Therefore, I have done my best
in digging out our gold.

Well done.

You're the only one
who could do this.

But I'd like you to continue
working hard at the mines.

Please, wait. I'd like to
spread my wings to the world!

Are you awake?

It's you, Oko.

Where's Sir Koetsu?

Don't you remember?

I must've been drunk.

Don't tell me you
forgot our promise

Our promise?

You need women in the mines,
so you'll take me.

How can I forget that?

But...did I say something
bad about anybody?

You said a lot.

I did? About whom?

Miura Anjin, Honda Masanobu,
and Councilor Hidetada.

Lord Hidetada?

He's a stupid, 2nd generation
Shogun, good-for-nothing.

- Is that all?
- No.

When the Shogun dies, nobody
will follow that straight-lace.

What a dull man.

Enough.

Don't laugh!

Now your status is clear.
You're my concubine.

Me? Lord Okubo's...?

You may not object.

You asked
me to take you.

I heard something I
shouldn't've heard.

What?

I'm going to be killed
in the mountain!

Don't be so stupid.

How can I kill Hon'ami Koetsu's
sister-in-law?

You said you liked me from the
first time you saw me.

That wasn't a lie,
I hope.

How can I lie, I felt it from
the bottom of my heart.

I'm the black sheep of the
Hon'ami family.

I might be a good catch
for you, Lord Okubo.

The 7th anniversary of Hideyoshi's
death, the celebration of prosperity

was done in an unprecedented
grand scale.

It indicated that the late
Regent was still popular,

and that Shogun Ieyasu was
broad-minded enough

to allow such a celebration
in his honor.

The residents dispelled all
conflicts between Osaka and Edo.

The construction of the city
of Edo as the new capital

of the bakufu government,
was almost complete.

Excuse me, but you
have a guest.

A guest?

It's Sir Miura Anjin.

Miura Anjin was the Japanese
name given to the Englishman

William Adams, who arrived on a
Dutch ship in 1600.

This is the gold mine
magistrate, Lord Okubo.

I have heard of
your reputation.

You have some
more visitors.

I'm a Spaniard named Carlos.

Aren't you the gold mine
magistrate, Lord Okubo?

I am, the gold mine
magistrate, Okubo.

So there's this kind of gold
in the world... her hair...

What? A beauty with
golden hair?

She was quite a beauty...

That Carlos wants to build a
hospital for the poor.

I know that. I intended to
grant him the permission.

I felt a certain animosity
between Carlos and Miura Anjin.

Don't think that the foreign
countries are one.

Europe is now divided
in two.

Europe is?

The Europeans: Spaniards and
Portuguese, were the powers of old.

The new powers are the red-heads
like the Dutch and the English.

The Europeans and
the red-heads...

I see.

To enjoy free trade with the
world, we must remain neutral.

We cannot choose sides?

We must deal equally with the
Europeans and the red-heads.

I understand.

Please examine this.

The capital to let us trade
with the world, pure gold.

We found high quality gold in
Izu and Sado.

Thank you for your hard work
in the East and in the West.

I don't deserve those
kind words.

I only regret that I cannot
serve my lord Tadateru.

You work hard as usual.

Many lords competed to build
a mansion in Edo.

This was Date Masamune's
mansion in Edo.

His first daughter was engaged
to Ieyasu's 6th son, Tadateru.

Nagayasu, who was also
Tadateru's retainer,

often came to visit Masamune
to discuss the impending wedding.

So, Carlos requested
to see you?

He said he wants to give me a
beauty with golden hair.

I see. A beauty with
golden hair...

He wants your help,
Lord Date.

Carlos? My help?

Miura Anjin will beat him.

So, he wants your help in
influencing the Shogun.

I see, Miura Anjin is
Carlos' enemy.

The war between the Europeans
and the Red-Heads began in Edo.

The war between the Europeans
and the Red-Heads?

There was once a European
named Marco Polo

who reported that Japan had
islands of gold.

So, the greedy Europeans
want to conquer our islands.

And? What will happen?

We can use the myth about
our gold

to influence the traders
of the world,

and we can take control
of the world trade.

How about it?

This is my dream.

But...

The Shogun is
quite conservative.

I wonder if he'll
support your dream.

Lord Date,

our Shogun's policy is to bring
prosperity to our lands through trade.

I just want to be part
of this milestone.

Then, your dream is slowly
becoming reality.

But Miura Anjin, the Red-Head
serves the Shogun.

The Europeans will not
be satisfied with that.

So, I'd like you to
support the Europeans.

Wait, this is alarming.

If I support the other side,
I'm opposing the Shogun.

This would create
a great rebellion.

Let me be frank with you.

You don't have the military
power to fight the Shogun.

But you can join hands with
one of the two most powerful

forces in the world, and gain
control of the trade.

You, the Shogun's son's
father-in-law,

can control the European
trade.

Then, you will appear to be
the Vice Shogun.

You have seen
through me.

The time to go to war for
lands is gone.

I'd like Lord Tadateru,
my master

to lead the alliance with
the Europeans.

I'd like you signature to
proceed with this plan.

I should've done
this first.

This is a present from Sado.

I'd like your signature.

3 days before the year
1604 came to a close...

This was a busy year, but
a good one.

In spring, I will go to
the capital and retire.

How will you handle the
Toyotomi heir from now on?

I shall promote Hideyori to
become Minister of the Right,

let Hidetada assume the
Shogun's post,

and invite Hideyori
to the capital.

The problem is how you
will invite him.

You must make him pay his
respects to the new Shogun.

Pay respects to Hidetada?

It's to show how times
have changed.

I wonder if that's
necessary.

It sure is.

It's to keep them in check
after you retire.

It's like putting the soul
into the Buddha's statue.

News of Ieyasu's retirement
created a stir.

Yodogimi sent Katagiri
Katsumoto and Ono Shuri

to investigate the
matter.

...it's been decided that
he'll retire next spring.

Then...the next Shogun
has been selected.

What about his promise with
the late Regent that

that he'll let our heir become
Shogun when he becomes 16?

That promise has been annulled
after Jibu's doing.

I know...

Had the Tokugawa clan
felt an animosity toward us,

our young heir would not
be alive today.

Exactly, but when Lord Hidetada
assumes the Shogun's post,

he will make our heir
the Minister of the Right.

What does that mean?

That means it may lead to the
Regent's post, and even Premier.

Then he will be following the
late Regent's footsteps.

That's true.

If one side is the Regent and

the other a leader with a
military background,

if these two work together,
a solid Japan will be born.

They explained to me in
detail that

that is the Shogun's plan
in building a better country.

Then my blood and my sister
Oeyo's blood

will flow in those who
control the country?

I'd like you to recognize that as
the manifestation of the promise

between the Shogun and
the late Regent.

I see.

I understand.

I'll leave the matters in
Edo to you.

Well done.

Are you our retainer or
the Shogun's retainer?

What a thing to say.

You're telling me that I
cannot control the lords

so I should let my wife's
father become the next Shogun.

Everyone's making a
fool out of me.

Our heir! Please sit down.

Your father's soul rests here.

Alright, alright! I'll thank
him and leave.

Wait!

The Shogun has kept his
promise with the late Regent.

The first example is their
action after Sekigahara.

Had it not been for your
late father's promise,

we would have been killed
by our enemy.

Had you gone to with the Mori
army to the battlefield,

neither you or this castle
would've existed today!

This is all because of your
late father's request.

I will not allow such a behavior
in front of your father!

Ieyasu left Edo with a sincere
desire for peace

between the Edo government
and the residents of Osaka.

It was January, 1604.

Hidetada, in accordance with
the samurai custom,

carried out by Minamoto
Yoritomo when he assumed power,

lead an army of
160,000.

Do you remember the late
Regent's Daigo flower viewing?

That was his last
moment of enjoyment.

I don't have such
an elegant taste.

All I can do is have an
army of 160,000.

I think it was an
important gesture,

to show that it would be useless
to oppose your reign now.

I'm relieved to
hear that.

I'd like Lord Hideyori to become
the Minister of the Right,

for Hidetada will be
the next Shogun.

Then, Lord Hidetada...?

He's one rank lower, and is the
Minister of the Interior.

I would like both of them
to receive greetings together

at either Nijo or Fushimi
Castle,

and would like you to
ask him to come.

You may be surprised
at this abrupt request

but you're his mother and
it would be better

if you would invite him
over to see him.

I'd like all the lords of
the entire country

to see Hidetada and Hideyori
sitting together.

That would drive out the
evil in their hearts.

I will arrange for
Lord Hideyori to come.

On the 21st, Hidetada
entered Fushimi Castle

with an army of
160,000.

There're rumors of war.
Is that true?

That wasn't for war.

Why would they fight us? It's
as easy as twisting a baby's arm.

What? A baby's arm?

We don't even have 1/10 of
the 160,000 men they have.

I see.

So...the Toyotomi clan is as
weak as a baby's arm...?

Please don't worry.

All you have to do is
pursue elegant hobbies.

How dare you
speak like that?!

Don't tell me you forgot
how mortified I felt

when Lord Ieyasu spared me
after Sekigahara

just because I
was a woman!

Please excuse me, I...

Never mind, leave!

I'm afraid, but...

You still have
something to say?

A message arrived from
Nene, that next May,

the new Shogun will receive
greetings at his Fushimi Castle.

What's that got
to do with me?

She would like Lord Hideyori
to come, also.

So she wants Hideyori to pay
respects to the new Shogun?

No, but to receive
greetings as family.

No! What's cause for
celebration for Hideyori

when Hidetada becomes
the new Shogun?

I will not allow him
to go!

But Nene is officially
Hideyori's mother.

What?

If he refuses to go
to Fushimi,

it would mean he shows a sign of
rebellion toward the new Shogun.

Are you threatening me?

Rank 1, the widow of the
late Regent,

is asking Hideyori to
come.

You do not have the right
to refuse her order.

Protocol dictates that

you seek the opinions of
the other lords

and have Lord Hideyori
make the final decision.

Here you are.

Mother? What happened?

Mother...

Don't move!

Or I'll kill
him and kill myself!

Mother...

They are all trying to
embarrass you and me.

That's not it at all...

Quiet!

Whatever you say,
I gave birth to our heir.

I shall not allow him to submit
to the Tokugawa clan.

I would rather kill him than
let him sink that low!

Listen.

I don't care if you're
busy flattering Ieyasu,

but don't you dare use
my son's name in doing so!

I have the late Nobunaga's
blood flowing in my veins.

How dare you tell me I have no
right to stop Hideyori!

Yodogimi's outburst put the
Toyotomi clan in a crisis:

whether they will prosper
or be crushed.

You look pale. Did you
catch a cold?

There has been a problem
with Lord Hideyori...

He cannot come?

He drank too much vermifuge
and has a stomach ache.

Forgive me.

I cannot face you...

It's because I haven't paid
enough attention to them.

This is all my fault.

Please don't cry.

Masanobu? Is Tadateru here?

Yes.

Let's introduce him to
Lady Nene. Bring him in.

So...this is
Lord Tadateru.

This is my sixth son.

I'm Tadateru.
Nice to meet you.

He's a fine man.

He's truly a fine heir.

Listen, Tadateru.

Yes.

I would like you to go to
Osaka as our representative.

What is the message?

Our plans were for Lord
Hideyori and the new Shogun

to receive greetings together
at Fushimi Castle.

He suddenly fell ill,
and cannot come.

So, I'd like you to go
see how he is.

Here's your message.
Listen well.

I understand.

The Shogun and his clan are deeply
concerned about your recent illness.

Though the Shogun himself
would've liked to come,

he is busy, and I came
in his place.

Please rest well and
recover as soon as possible.

Be polite to him.

I understand.

Masanobu. Relay this to
Hidetada in Nijo Castle.

Tadateru.

What's funny? This
wasn't meant to be funny.

I'm brother's messenger.

Yet I received my instructions
from you, father.

That was funny to me.
That seems reasonable.

Nagayasu, make Tadateru receive
formal orders from the Shogun.

Escort him to
Hidetada.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me.

It was my mistake to let you
convince the people in Osaka.

Please forget this.

I just pity Hideyori.

Unlike your Tadateru,

he has nobody to teach him
how to grow up to be a man.

Tadateru is dangerous at times.
I have to watch him.

You heard how he lashed out at
me telling me I was wrong.

That's why he's
so promising.

He's old-fashioned.

He acts like we are still
in the age of wars.

Like the snake waiting to attach
a careless prey.

Tadateru laughed at me and
Hideyori refused to come.

Those are just indications of
youthful rebellion.

Let's just watch over them.

Please take care
of Hideyori.

April 16th, 1605.

Hidetada became the
2nd generation Shogun,

and Ieyasu became
the retired Shogun.
