The atmosphere was already tense. Xiao Letian stared at Ito Hirobumi who was kneeling on the ground. The murderous intention kept rising, but reason defeated the fanaticism. He knew that killing Ito now would be harmful but useless.
If Ito is executed, the Fuso warrior class will be in an uproar, especially those 20,000 Fuso warriors who have expressed their loyalty to Madam Tiger and the young master.
Not only that, Ito's death is also a very bad political signal. This is Xiao Letian proving to the world that he has deprived Fu Yin'er of his political rights, and it will be difficult for anyone to be willing to take refuge in his son in the future.
Real talents will take the initiative to avoid the trap of the prince, for fear of getting a little bit wrong.
The most terrible thing is that if Fu Yin'er is suppressed, what will his important ministers think? Will some of the young second-generation disciples even use their crooked ideas to try to seize power?
Sooner or later, the Chinese will encounter the problem of passing the position, especially since Xiao Letian doesn't want to engage in the kind of death-turn pass. He will definitely retire after a few terms.
At Xiao Letian's age, controlling the Chinese for another twenty or thirty years would be the limit. At that time, his second-generation disciples would all be around fifty. It was the time when political ambitions were at their strongest, and they would definitely be able to suppress Fu Yin'er and the others. There will be crooked thoughts.
What a big problem is placed in front of Xiao Letian. He hates conspiracy so much. The most difficult thing in the world to crack is this kind of conspiracy, which makes you full of hatred but nowhere to vent it.
Ito Hirobumi's palms were all sweaty. He had rehearsed today's scene countless times. He knew that he had a high chance of breaking through, but there was also a risk, because Xiao Letian's power was so powerful that crushing himself would be like an ant. .
Especially when Xiao Letian was drinking just now, Ito was secretly counting the bottles. Every time Xiao Letian drank a glass, his heart was tugged.
Ito Hirobumi was afraid that Xiao Letian would be impulsive because of his drunkenness and wanted to die with just one sentence. The Prime Minister's guards just blocked his mouth and threw him to the cliff at the back of the mountain. Wild wolves would eat his bones.
Fortunately, Xiao Letian drank four bottles of sake. The alcohol content of Japanese sake was not high, so four bottles was not considered drunk. As long as Xiao Letian still has sense, he has a chance of survival.
Time passed minute by minute, and the sea breeze became colder at this moment. The surrounding soldiers of the Prime Minister's Guard felt the strange atmosphere, and they subconsciously began to move closer inward.
Life and death are only a matter of Xiao Letian's thoughts. Ito Hirobumi feels as if time has stopped!
At this moment, a figure suddenly ran up the mountain road. It was a ninja guarding the perimeter. The guard captain stopped him and listened to the whispers. Then he quickly walked to Xiao Letian and whispered, "Prime Minister, Second Madam coming……"
Xiao Letian was stunned, "It's so late, what is she doing here?"
"Madam is here holding the young master in her arms!"
"Nonsense!" Xiao Letian frowned and scolded.
The captain of the guard lowered his head and glanced at Ito Hirobumi and then looked at Xiao Letian with questioning eyes. The meaning was very clear, "Should I kill this person?" Do you want to take action or not?'
Xiao Letian waved him off, then grabbed Ito Hirobumi by the collar, and the two looked at each other, "Ito Hirobumi! Should I trust your loyalty?"
Ito Hirobumi's heart was beating like a drum. He knew that he had successfully passed the test. He said with firm eyes, "I have no loyalty to the young master... I only have my life to devote to it! This is my oath!"
"Okay! Someone... put some make-up on him and look more energetic. Don't be embarrassed by his panda eyes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, four ninjas suddenly appeared in front of Ito Hirobumi as if they were conjured up. Without saying a word, they took off their clothes. The mud-stained kimono was taken off. The ninjas held a gorgeous silk kimono and walked towards Ito. Wear it on Bowen.
Of course, there is also a makeup box, filled with all kinds of pastel colors. With just one dab of paint by a skilled female ninja, Ito Hirobumi’s panda eyes disappeared.
The precious trauma ointment was rubbed on the bruised area, and the cold feeling made him very comfortable. In just a few minutes, Ito Hirobumi looked brand new, as if he had never been beaten at all.
Along the mountain road, Huniu walked up, followed by ten maids, the first of whom was holding Fu Yin'er. When Huniu saw Xiao Letian, she found that the suspected conflict did not appear. Hirobumi Ito and the prime minister were sitting opposite each other admiring the moon, with several empty wine bottles knocked over.
"Why are you drinking so late? Although the weather is warm now, the sea breeze is still very cold..." The virtuous Huniu took a cloak from the maid and put it on Xiao Letian's back. The maid also gave it to Xiao Letian. Ito Hirobumi took the lead.
"Why did you come up here? You need to rest more after giving birth, why are you still climbing the mountain..." Xiao Letian patted the back of Huniu's hand and said softly.
"You!" Hu Niu nodded at him, "Do you think I'm still in confinement? Fu Yin'er is already one and a half months old. What I need now is to exercise more..."
"It's my fault, it's all my fault. When you needed me most, I was fighting on the front line. I'm really sorry..."
Ito Hirobumi crossed his knees and held the bluestone with both hands, bowed his head to his mistress and the Prime Minister, smiled and said, "Although the Prime Minister is not with the Young Master, I heard that the Prime Minister is doing good deeds in the Far East... In order to pray for the Young Master, the Prime Minister comforted many Tsarist Russian prisoners. And treat them preferentially..."
"The merits are immeasurable! With these merits, the young master will definitely be safe and healthy! I want to ask, which father in this world can save more than ten thousand lives for his son? Prime Minister, this is the boundless love, and the love of licking a calf is nothing. There is no room for the Prime Minister’s magnanimity!”
Once a woman becomes a mother, she will become very arrogant, especially if anyone says a nice word about her child, the woman will be happy to heaven.
Ito Hirobumi's flattery was so awesome that Tigress couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. "Mr. Ito can indeed talk... Come here, take one of the two boxes of Korean ginseng my father gave me and give it to Ito." gentlemen……"
Xiao Letian couldn't help but laugh. As expected, Ito Hirobumi had a way of speaking, and he was extremely lovable. If such a person could guarantee his loyalty, it would be a very good choice to be Fu Yin'er's subordinate in the future.
Although he promoted the Hidden Dragon Plan, the purpose of the Hidden Dragon Plan was not to allow him and his descendants to lose power, but to hide power from the people.
In fact, the core high-level officials in the Hidden Dragon Project still secretly control the military, civil affairs, finance, personnel and other important affairs of the Chinese people, but they do so not through the official system, but only through influence.
In the future, if he dies, Fu Yin'er will not be the prime minister and will take over the invisible power. He will have a group of civil and military personnel who do not hold any official positions but have real power. Although these people do not have official titles, they have the power of Bidai. Hat people have greater control.
"Talents! Real talents still need to be used. You can't let your son be a loner!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Letian smiled, "Three days later, I will leave for Naha. There will be a major ceremony to be held... You should also go and see it, so that you can know how huge our Chinese cause is!" "
Ito Hirobumi was so excited that his whole body trembled, "Thank you, Prime Minister, I dare not obey my order!"
