In principle, Kosugi Fusui agreed to Otsutsuki Kaguya's suggestion to get a share of the pie in advance.
The ninja world is now prosperous, no longer as barren as it was more than a thousand years ago.
Anyway, Gushan Bu Shui can't be eaten by one person, so letting some of it out won't have much impact.
Now is the family dinner time, not the time to deal with this issue, so Gushan Bushui put this matter aside for the time being.
In fact, the family banquet hosted by a daimyo is also of a ceremonial nature, but one of the protagonists today, the eldest daimyo, is in poor health, so many of the contents have been cancelled, leaving only eating, drinking and gatherings with close relatives.
The daimyo, Princess Ruri and others gathered together to discuss. Momiji and Katsura Mikoto were looking at the children, and cousin Fusugi Fusui and Yoshigege were very close to each other.
The two of them hadn't spoken to each other for a long time. This time, Liang Zhong came over and kept complaining.
For the heir to the name of the Land of Fire, Yoshigetsu's situation was already considered good. He had no brothers or sisters competing with him for favor, his status was stable, and he didn't have any big dark spots as a person.
There is nothing much to say about the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren who have achieved the right position.
The only thing is that Liangzhong's temperament is too out of the ordinary and he hasn't settled down yet.
Especially the fact that I am not married and have children is really worrying.
It was obvious that the Daiming family was short of heirs. There were many vassals under his command, all of them were retainers who had been working for generations. Especially since Liang had no children, if the throne fell to a blood descendant of Gusugi, he would definitely bring a lot of direct descendants with him.
The transfer of power is very realistic. Each has its own hilltop. It is impossible not to play with your own family and still maintain the original order and pattern.
In the past, everyone just urged Liangshige to quickly choose a suitable noble girl. Now they don't ask for so much. They want to get married as soon as possible. Even if the status is lower, it doesn't matter. The matter of status is easy to deal with. As long as there is a child and everyone is settled, it will be fine. Work with peace of mind.
"Cousin Bu Shui, tell me, are they too impatient? They know how to push every day..."
"Don't you...don't like sweet-smelling girls?"
"I like it! But getting married and having children is a bit strange..."
"You... first have to be willing to be seen, want to have a baby, be willing to have a baby, and be able to have a baby. Otherwise, you will do even more extreme things in the future."
"I didn't say I didn't want to!"
"They don't care what you say, they only care about what you do."
Gushan Bushui responded in a low voice,
"Or are you embarrassed to say that you have a girl you like?"
"That's not true. I just haven't met anyone I like."
"What kind of wife do you want?"
"I don't know, but it has to be interesting first, right? Those well-behaved ladies are too boring."
"You are young, so you want to look for freshness and excitement? This is not the attitude of looking for a lover to spend the rest of your life with!"
"Then...what does Cousin Bu Shui think?"
"As the heir to a daimyo, you can be a little greedy!"
Finding the white moonlight in my heart will not affect He Liangzhong's marriage and children.
"Hey, can this still be done?"
"You! Among the relatives and friends around me, there have never been any ruthless prodigals or indulgent princesses in the past few generations! Where do you think so many palace secrets in folklore come from?"
Just because the two Genpei clans of this era don't have very strong tastes, doesn't mean they are vegetarians.
After marrying a wife and having children, there are many people who still flirt with women.
To be honest, if you don't mess around, no matter you are a daimyo or a direct descendant of the Furusugi family, they will be quite free.
When you are well fed, warmly clothed, and have nothing to do, such as reciting poems and composing poems, being romantic and romantic, the demand for looking for flowers and willows will naturally be strong.
Where did so many inexplicable family divisions and retainers with unclear pedigrees come from?
A large part of it is the result of our ancestors not being able to control their lower bodies.
Illegitimate children and children from outside wives are also children. Although they have no inheritance rights and are not recognized, a way out must be arranged, right?
As a result, various Miao characters were given, which eventually evolved into the surnames of various large and small families.
"Cousin Bu Shui, you are teaching me to be a ruthless and unsentimental bad man!"
"Isn't it now? There are so many girls who want to marry you, but haven't they been abandoned by you? Rights and obligations, enjoyment and responsibilities are all equal. You must give birth to an heir now Come out, and as for the future, it’s up to you what you think!”
"It sounds like I, the heir to the great name, just want to have children."
"To a certain extent, that's true! Your greatest value is to maintain your family name. If you can't..."
Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled slightly and said no more.
When you reach this position, it is easy to have the illusion that you are the emperor of eternity, the peerless wise king, and how important you are.
In fact, after a lifetime of hard work, the most glorious moment may be giving birth to a successor who is upright and popular and convinces everyone.
Unless Liangzhong's little cousin can possess extremely strong personal strength and master unrivaled armed forces like Gu Shan Bu Shui, and completely break out of the original shackles.
"I...seem to understand a little bit!"
Liangzhong, who had been scratching his head, suddenly realized,
"It's a good idea to find the best wife, give birth to perfect children, and be a respected and loved monarch. In fact, it is difficult for a person to have exactly the right things in his life. Just like my father, with me , only then can I have free time to do what I want to do. I want to have more freedom. I must get married and have children to have the possibility of pursuing my true love!"
He gently patted his little cousin on the shoulder, neither confirming nor denying these overly realistic words.
If Kosugi Fusui covets the Daimyo's position, what he should do now is to make the Daimyo's family extinct, and then logically take over the entire Fire Country until he dominates the ninja world.
Of course, this is not necessary. The second deputy of the country who holds the real power is often more convenient than the daimyo.
The position of the daimyo is actually a target, and you may not really get it.
The most important thing is that Gushan Bushui's moral values are not snobbish enough to plot against his close relatives.
While the two cousins were talking, Cousin Zhiji suddenly waved his hand, indicating that the boss wanted to see him for something. Gushan Bushui stood up, walked closer, knelt down in front of him, and held his hand, which was half leaning on the chair. Boss name.
"The rebellious boy who was a pain in the ass back then is now the pillar of the family."
"You're exaggerating!"
"Since the end of the ancient times when gods and humans lived together, our family has never been as strong as it is now. If outsiders don't understand, why can't our own family understand it? I don't know if our family's strength can overwhelm the Leaf Village. At least it’s better than Cloud Hidden Village. As for the Mist Ninja and Sand Ninja, they’re no longer enough.”
The strength on the surface is enough to fight a big battle alone with one of the five major ninja villages outside Konoha Village.
With Gu Shan Bu Shui's character, the boss couldn't believe that he didn't have a stronger back-up plan.
"Not only the combat power, but also the soft power has never been stronger! Whether it is secular or ninja village, almost no one cares about our family's attitude. Although I don't understand your methods, but looking at the income and expenditure report, as well as welcoming and sending I know a thing or two about the gift list. In the past, if the abdicated daimyo was seriously ill, how could the Hokage come all the way to express condolences?"
"That... the third generation is here now, probably because he has something to ask for!"
"It's all the same whether it's a request to borrow bridge funds, a loan extension, interest exemption, etc., or an application to increase the task quota. Because we are stronger and can't threaten with force, we have to calmly reason. Order is needed. Maintain it with principled force. Why were Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama able to establish the order of a village and a country back then? Wasn't it because they were invincible and no one was their opponent?"
After telling the truth for a few times, the boss seemed to feel that he had spoken a little too much. In fact, this occasion was not suitable for him to say this.
"I'm old and always like to look back on the past! Forget it, let's not talk about it! Bu Shui, let me ask you, how sure are you of the surgery Qingfu mentioned?"
"100%! Relieving your current pain is a sure thing. However, in the future, your living habits may need to be changed. There are more taboos, and you need to take medicine on time for a long time. Otherwise, there will be very bad consequences."
"That's all? There won't be any side effects like a drastic change in character or degeneration into a demon?"
"The so-called demons are only slightly stronger, bullying those who are afraid of the strong. Even if the demon king is resurrected, with our family's strength, there is no need to be afraid!"
"Haha! I was wrong!"
The daimyo, who was amused by Gusugi Fusui's words, laughed a few times and continued,
"Of course I don't want to die if I can live. I haven't seen enough of my family prospering and my descendants multiplying and reproducing."
"So...what do you mean?"
"The mission of the previous daimyo must end here..."
He waved his hand and asked Gushan Bushui to put his ear to it. The boss Mingcai whispered,
"At midnight on the third day after the wedding, the news of death will be announced, and then the funeral will be prepared. As for me, I will just be an idle old man watching with cold eyes!"
"understood!"
The boss must die socially, and this identity will be gone.
This also eliminates the possibility of the elder Daimyo interfering with important matters as an elder due to changes caused by his extension of life.
This is a good approach.
It has to be said that the old man who has held the power of the Fire Country for so many years is indeed somewhat capable. The fact that he was able to come up with this method proves that he has really considered all aspects and even saved his descendants from worries.
"Do you need me to prepare the funeral arrangements for you?"
The boss's new identity cannot be that of a powerless commoner. At least he is a wealthy and idle man who has no worries about food and clothing and enjoys all the glory.
It is not difficult to arrange such a vest status.
"No, I'm prepared!"
"That's okay!"
"Sorry to trouble you, Bu Shui!"
At this time, the relationship between the Daimyo and the Furusugi family was harmonious, and there was no fundamental conflict. In another time period, the elder Daimyo might not dare to act like this.
After settling this matter, Gu Shan Bu Shui also knew what he should do next.
After everyone had had enough wine and food, it was already getting late. Gushan Bushui arranged the residences of Uncle Zhiji and Gui Meiqin's family before joining his family.
After a day of playing, Xiao Hiiragi was so tired that he fell asleep. The three children hugged each other and slept on the small bed. They were all mumbling as if they were talking in their sleep.
With a smile on your face, it must be a good dream!
"The name of the boss means the golden cicada escapes its shell, right?"
"You knew already?"
“I feel like he’s going to do it!”
Hongye chuckled and replied,
"It's better for all parties."
The highly respected "Emperor" is still alive, so the transfer of power in the Fire Country is actually not a good thing. Even if the eldest name never thought of embarrassing his descendants, sometimes it would actually become an obstacle.
It would be best to take this opportunity to solve the problem socially and institutionally without affecting the relationship between family members.
"How are you going to help?"
"The liver and kidneys need to be transplanted. These organs, which cannot be changed and have completely failed, must be renewed. Then fuse cells with strong vitality to provide enough energy! Before the spirit decays, maintaining life is not a problem. The key is to look at the boss. The name itself…”
It is certain that an old man with a weak life will not be replenished. Even if the body can maintain a high level of activity, the spirit and soul are not strong enough, and it will not be able to last for long.
While the two were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
"Father, do you have time? I have something to do and want to talk to you..."
"Um!"
A few minutes later, the father and daughter were sitting at the small table next to the fireplace, drinking tea to refresh themselves.
"What do you need to say now?"
"When I was in Konoha Village, I felt a very strange and powerful chakra lingering around."
"Powerful, strange? What is the specific scope of activities?"
"The Hokage's home and the vicinity of Gusugi Stronghold..."
"Then it's possible that Jiraiya is back!"
"Jiraiya? Is he Toad Sage, one of the 'Three Ninjas'?"
"That's him! Now, he may be one of the strongest men in the ninja world..."
In the original timeline, the reason for losing to Pain's Six Paths was not that there was no chance of victory, but that there was too little information. It was already good to have that kind of performance when facing the Samsara Eye for the first time.
"Then...why is he spying on us?"
"Because we are strong!"
"Eh?"
Gu Shan Bu Shui patted Xiang Ling's young shoulder to express comfort.
"Having strength, being strong in itself, is a threat. Being strong, but not strong enough to protect yourself, is a fault in itself. The Gushan family is different. If you don't bully others, you have to thank God..."
"Are we in a hostile relationship with the Leaf Village?"
"No! It's just that on a certain level, there is competition. Just like brothers and sisters of the same mother, they may have conflicts over competing for toys. The relationship between the Konoha Village and the Gushan family is very harmonious, and there is no insurmountable gap. contradiction."
"I see!"
"Practice with peace of mind and become a ninja after graduation. No one will use your status as an excuse. Do what you want to do without worrying about your family or the opinions of Konoha ninjas. People from the Gusugi tribe can be in the ninja world. Between heaven and earth, you are free to live your own way.”
It is not the turn of a child over ten years old to worry about the future of this family.
