Before Wu Dian finished speaking, Fujiwara Nobunaga opposite him was already sitting upright, with a solemn expression, listening intently. Now they are negotiating on behalf of the official forces behind each other, and their attitudes cannot be ignored. Moreover, Wu Dian's request is reasonable and not excessive.
After listening to the other party's words, he solemnly nodded: "Mr. Wu, I will report your request to the shrine in its entirety. Please believe that the priest and the chief minister will thoroughly investigate the matter and give you a clear answer!"
Just when he thought that this matter had gone far beyond the scope of private affairs and started to deal with it as a business matter, Wu Dian opposite him suddenly changed his face and turned into a sad and pitiful face. He clasped his hands and said, "Old Teng, we are the two of us." It’s a life-and-death friendship, Minghua is still your nephew after all, you can’t ignore it, please help me!”
Wu Dian was under the eaves and had to bow his head. Liu Minghua was still in his hands, so he couldn't rob him forcefully. He could only use hard and soft tactics, which was even shameless. Anyway, he was thick-skinned and there was no loss!
So he first used a bunch of official banners to put pressure, and then used personal friendship to plead. Judging from Fujiwara's temperament, it should be useful.
Sure enough, Fujiwara couldn't stand the change in his attitude of being arrogant and respectful, and his mouth opened wide: Who is Old Fuji? Why don’t I recognize him? Also, there is a new nephew in the blink of an eye, do we still have to take care of him?
Even Didi was so frightened that she stayed away from him. She stared at Wu Dian with big eyes in surprise, thinking: Master, I didn't expect that your shameless skills have evolved to this level. I admire you!
Fujiwara wiped his stiff face, picked up the cup and took a sip of water. Then he came to his senses and showed a sincere expression: "Mr. Wu, you saved me. After you came back, I always wanted to repay you, not to mention this Something is indeed very wrong, don’t worry, I will try my best to explain it to the Grand Palace Secretary, and I will not let Mr. Liu be wronged."
Wu Dian showed a look of joy. With such a powerful young minister willing to help him, Minghua's matter would be easier to handle. He was 100% sure that Minghua would fight back passively. As long as Ise Shrine If we can deal with it fairly, we will definitely restore Minghua's innocence!
He hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you very much, Lao Teng, you absolutely believe me. Your nephew must have been wronged, and the perpetrator is someone else!"
Fujiwara couldn't stand him talking about Lao Teng and his nephew, so he simply stood up and said, "Well, Mr. Wu, please sit down for a while. I will go and explain the matter to the Grand Palace Secretary now and convey your meaning."
After saying that, he bowed slightly and hurried out of the tea room without waiting for Wu Dian's response, and quickly went to report.
As soon as Fujiwara went out, Didi jumped up and said, "Master! You are so shameless. People were so scared that they ran away!"
Wu Dian was so proud that he poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and glanced sideways at Didi: "I'm pretty good, isn't it? I've achieved my goal. At least my second child is safe now. You, learn from it." My son, I have always been impulsive!"
Didi almost buried her head on the ground after hearing this, and made two points: "Yes, what the master taught me is that in the future, the disciple must learn your shameless skills!"
After joking for a while, Wu Dian looked serious and said in a low voice: "It looks quiet and peaceful here, with not many people around. In fact, it is heavily guarded. There is some kind of power that envelopes the entire temple. I just tried to use my magic eye to check, but it turned out that there was nothing there." No matter how far it flew, it was destroyed. Fortunately, the fluctuation was very small, so it probably didn't alarm anyone."
Wu Qing also said: "Yes, senior brother, I feel very uncomfortable here, as if I am always being suppressed."
Didi suddenly realized: "No wonder, I said, master, you have never been such a reasonable person. Why are you so groveling today? It turns out you were forced. How did you say that, lying down in the lotus position?"
Wu Dian said angrily: "It's rare for you to use an idiom, and just use it on the master? This is called surrendering to the situation. If it is a dragon, you have to curl up, and if it is a tiger, you have to lie down. If it weren't for the dick in their hands, you see I...hum!"
Didi sighed: "It's a pity that we have met so long. What wonderful brothers and sisters. The whole family is gone like this. Master, do you think it was those people in the underworld who did it? The second brother took action to kill, otherwise with his usual How could you be so cruel?"
Wu Dian shook his head: "It's hard to say. It's hard to draw conclusions before the truth is known, so we need to have a good talk with Ise Shrine. Only they can find out the truth. We can't let the second child take the blame, otherwise he will be depressed for the rest of his life. They will all live in the shadows!”
Didi said "Yes!", nodded heavily, and made up her mind to help her second junior brother seek justice.
After a long time, footsteps sounded at the door, and Fujiwara Nobunaga walked in. He smiled and said to Wu Dian: "Mr. Wu, I reported everything to Omiyaji, and he agreed to see you, and You discuss this."
Wu Dian was delighted, this attitude was quite good, he stood up immediately, Didi and Wu Qing also stood up, Fujiwara hurriedly said: "The Grand Palace Minister has appointed to meet Mr. Wu, you two should wait here."
Wu Dian turned around and said to them: "Then you just wait here for me. I'll be back as soon as I go." After saying that, he winked. Didi knew that he meant not to act rashly and to be smart, so she nodded: "Okay. ,master."
I only pity Wu Qing. He always kept in mind that his senior brother told him to act based on his wink, but he winked several times. He never once understood how his senior brother wanted him to act. He couldn't help but lament: There are so many ways in this human race, I Still far from it...
Wu Dian followed Fujiwara as he walked toward the palace. Red wooden pavilions and elegant stone lanterns could be seen from time to time along the road, which looked simple and quiet.
He sincerely praised: "The shrine is really spectacular and amazing!"
Fujiwara responded with a smile: "Yes, with two thousand years of accumulation, this is Japan's holy land!"
Wu Dian asked again: "By the way, I would like to ask, I heard that the highest level in your palace is the priest. Why does it seem that all affairs are handled by the chief minister?"
Fujiwara did not feel offended and still smiled: "This is something that everyone in Japan knows. Although the highest status in the shrine is the priest, it has been held by the contemporary princess since many years ago, and she is only responsible for participating in some major ceremonies.
The current priest is none other than His Highness Kuroda Kiyoko, the only daughter of Emperor Akihito! As for the usual affairs, it is handled by the Grand Palace Secretary. "
Wu Dian said "Oh" and said in his heart: That means that the so-called priest has been turned into a decoration. He doesn't care about anything at all. The power is controlled by the Grand Palace Secretary. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Japanese royal family is not good at politics. He has no rights in politics, not even in religion, and he always claims that he is a descendant of God.
He followed up and inquired: "I wonder who the current Grand Palace Secretary is. Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"
Fujiwara hesitated slightly and slowed down. These words touched on a conflicting point in his heart. Seeing that there was no one around, he pretended to be the fifth son of Pan Erwu and said softly: "The name of the current Omiyaji is Saibe Ieyasu. He is a wise and powerful man." , has outstanding abilities, but is a bit stubborn. Mr. Wu needs to be more careful with his words later and not to offend him."
