Ninja Ice House

Staying in the Gushan family is certainly stable, and the lack of change is not conducive to the "thoughtful" Hongye to achieve her goal.

For example, this seemingly inconspicuous assignment now, once it involves huge changes in interests, the problem will be more difficult.

Hongye's kind-hearted character has made her some acquaintances in the clan, but few of them can be useful at critical moments.

Her identity and past experiences limit her possibilities.

Only Gu Shan Bu Shui can effectively protect Hongye, but this also puts shackles on Hongye's future.

It is also a good opportunity to seek development externally.

It is too late for Hongye, who is in her 20s, to take the path of a ninja. Instead of struggling in a field she is not good at, it is better to make a career in official career.

Of course, the "public food" in the Land of Fire is not so delicious.

The ninja world has been severely solidified at all levels of society. From the public servants to the servants, most of them are inherited from their fathers.It doesn't mean that the ancestors will be the officials, and the descendants will be the officials. It's about maintaining a stable intergenerational inheritance in a certain field without major changes.

For example, as practiced in various places, it is generally controlled by several wealthy families, who take turns to sit in the manor, and marry each other for multiple generations.

Large and small circles, one layer after another, formed the stable power structure of the Kingdom of Fire today.

Sitting on the ground, the local tyrants basically have no chance to enter the house, have no reputation, and will not go far in the official career; the high-ranking tyrants will not compete for the lower-level officials, the best choice, and would rather live at home or live in seclusion in the mountains than do "low jobs." ", rolling in the muddy quagmire of "turbidity".

On the whole, it is a bit like the co-governance of aristocratic families in which "the upper class has no poor families, and the lower class has no noble families".

Gushan Bushui said that he wanted to get Hongye an official position, but it was not impossible. With the influence of the Gushan family, he could definitely do it. However, with the status of Hongye, he could not sit firmly .

Even a big family like the Gushan family, which is open-minded internally and has a smooth flow from top to bottom, is not easy to sit on the outside, pick up the bowl to eat, and put down the bowl to scold mothers. It can be done, but there will be endless troubles.

"Brother Bu Shui, if you want to become an official, grandfather is willing to give you a position as a councilor. Within five years, you can at least be promoted to minister of the interior. If it weren't for your uncle's name as the son-in-law in name, the position of the minister would have been a long time ago. You can be one of them.”

Hearing Gushan Bushui's words, Liangshige responded in a bit of embarrassment,

"However, Hongye's identity is a bit embarrassing..."

"It's easy to do, and I won't ask you anymore. I used to be in the ninja circle, and I didn't care much about the changes in government powers, so..."

After hesitating for a while, the little cousin said:

"There are three choices. The first is Cai Nusi, a subordinate of the Imperial Household Ministry. The position is not high and the power is not heavy, but the sense of presence is high. It is a good place where it is easier to form good relationships. The affairs of management are complicated, suitable for capable officials to play, if you want to make some achievements, you can go to practice; in the end, it is less talkative, noble and idle officials, making good friends with noble women, traveling in mountains and rivers is good."

"It doesn't sound like a decent place!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui pressed his temples with a headache.

The so-called female recruiting department is actually a place where innocent women are selected, etiquette is taught, and talents are prepared for the court. There are also big nobles who will choose female companions for their children.

This is a serious training institution for female officials, not a Jiaofang Division, neither performing art nor selling oneself.There are all girls from good families, among them there are many ambitious people who want to get lucky and climb high branches, and there are also well-behaved wealthy ladies.

Cainusi was originally a servant training center for daimyo, and also provided a platform for "lady diplomacy" and "handkerchief delivery".

Later, it gradually became an existence similar to the Royal Aristocratic Girls' School. It also held outing parties during the holidays, attracting many sons and brothers who thought they were well-off to join in. It was completely a blind date and friendship garden party.

This kind of place is not very suitable for Hongye, who was born as a maid.

Shikibu Province is not bad, Hongye is capable of dispatching officers such as Dr. Shikibu, or the affairs officers under his command.

However, Gushan Bushui wanted to arrange a formal identity for Hongye, but he didn't plan to let her really take the road of official promotion, worrying about common affairs every day, how can she do serious things within the family?

"Shao Nayan is good, but, isn't this position always assigned to the daimyo's cronies? Although the announcements are all trivial matters, he is also the daimyo's close servant..."

The main responsibilities of Shao Nayan are still responsible for the preservation and engraving of seals, handling documents and acting as a clerk.It may seem unimportant, but at some point, it can also play a vital role.

It is true that the clerk is not very capable of doing things, but it is really difficult to find out if he wants to do bad things. A master of manipulating words can come up with several versions of the same thing, and each of them seems to be similar, giving people the feeling Quite the opposite.

"These are all in the past!"

The big cousin's question made Ryoshige laugh out loud. The seemingly omnipotent Shaojiadu had been confused at times.

"After the order of one village and one country was confirmed, the importance of Shaonayan plummeted, and it was gradually marginalized. Now it is just a matter of recording some court knowledge, chatting with ladies and ladies about literature and art, and recording customs and customs. Idle errand, maybe it will be revoked at any time..."

"I see!"

In this way, the Shaojiadu will understand that it is an official position that is not suitable for the development of the times and is gradually being eliminated. In the past, women were not used very much, but now there are more noble women, so that it is convenient to hold tea parties with daimyos, princesses, etc. to pass the time .

For red leaves, it is just right.

"That's all! By the way, Shao Nayan gave Hongye, what do I need to do?"

"It's enough to make up a passable ID card. I'll write a letter to my grandfather to say hello. It's just such a small matter, no one has eyes to stop it!"

He was originally an idle official who was about to be revoked, and the dignified Gushan family arranged for a person to eat empty salary, because they valued you, so just do it honestly.

"Well, sorry for the trouble, little brother!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui had no hope for this cousin who didn't know anything and was so curious that he frequently caused trouble. He didn't expect that there would be a day when he would be useful.

"a piece of cake!"

Liang solemnly waved his hand, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. He was in a good mood after being praised by his cousin.

"Then again, Hongye is really a golden phoenix flying out of a chicken coop. She has good scheming and skills. Brother Bu Shui respects her advice very much and obeys her."

"You see it?"

"Anyway, I'm also the only grandson of the Fire Nation Daimyo, so I'm not so stupid that I can't even see the little tricks in front of me."

Being able to find out the handles that can be used from some emergencies and take decisive action is not a quality that ordinary talents can possess.

In comparison, the current daimyo's wife is not as elegant as Hongye.

"I hope that in the future, I can also meet such an excellent wife and concubine."

"Aren't the maids in the daimyo court not good?"

Ryoshige curled his lips in disdain:

"Either she is obsessed with her own world, entertaining herself, and her interests are limited to piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, literature and art, and a well-behaved lady, or she is a superficial person who is ambitious but can't recognize herself. Occasionally, there are a few honest Yes, it would be nice if it would save me some snacks.”

"Living environments are different, and you can't generalize."

In the original timeline, Hongye, as an orphan girl in subjugation, lives with her daughter in the country of grass.Too honest, without any scheming, I'm afraid she won't live to be an adult, let alone protect Xianglin.

With her own ability of physical healing and Kagura's mind, she may not be reduced to the point of being tortured to death, but it is hard to say with this young daughter.

Being a mother is strong!

That "Hongye" only wanted to protect Xianglin, and the mother and daughter depended on each other, struggling to survive; now Hongye wants more.

"If she wants to have financial control, let her do it. It is not a bad thing to have ideas and ambitions. It is also her ability to be good at seizing opportunities, knowing how to advance and retreat, and rationally using the surrounding resources."

"I thought Brother Bu Shui would be unhappy, thinking that my good intentions had been taken advantage of. Pure family affection and love had been tarnished..."

"What nonsense?"

Gu Shan Bu Shui smiled slightly.

With the current status of Shaojiadu, I don't know how many beauties of all colors are coveting.

As long as you are willing, you can be a groom every day, and you can sing and sing every night until your kidneys fail.Of course, the premise is that the parents don't stop it.

The so-called family relationship does exist between Gushan Bushui and Hongye, after all, they are childhood sweethearts who have known each other since childhood.

Young little boy, how many big sisters do not yearn for gentleness?

As for love, I really didn't think so far. Between the two, they should appreciate each other more.

"In that accident back then, there were obviously other maids present, so why did you only take a fancy to Hongye? It couldn't be out of sympathy!"

Liangshige was also very interested in this kind of gossip, but he couldn't find a good opportunity to ask about it before.

Gu Shan Bu Shui couldn't answer this question well, after thinking about it for a while, he replied with a light smile:

"Maybe like today, it was just an accident, but she was the only one who realized it was an opportunity and seized it decisively. For the maids of the Gushan family, if they can't be kept in the back house by the master, they must either be sent If you are married, you can marry internally and start a family with other servants. As for being dismissed and sent home, it seems to be a good result, but there are a few young girls who have really seen the luxury of aristocrats, and there are a few who are willing to go back to their hometown to live a simple life. Get married hastily and live a mediocre life?"

Some things that happened a few years ago can no longer be investigated clearly, and the murderer has been punished. As a victim, Hongye has always shown a strong "motivation to improve".

Maybe some foxes who can't eat it will say that the grapes are sour, but Gushan Bushui and his father Gushan Zhengcheng and Gushan Liuli are actually not very disgusted.

Only incompetent people worry that their subordinates are too talented and threaten their status.

No matter what Hongye wants, the Gushan family can afford it, as long as her performance is worthy of Gushan Bushui's expectations of her.

"Sure enough, Brother Bu Shui, he doesn't expect a soul mate for his future marriage either!"

"A wife who perfectly meets all wishes, even in my dreams, I never thought about it."

Although Gushan Bushui is six or seven years younger than Hongye, it doesn't mean that his mental age and view of choosing a mate are childish.

The 50-year-old greasy uncle and the 30-year-old Erli uncle add up to an 80-year-old old man?

If things in the world could really add up so easily, there wouldn't be so much trouble.

"I'm a good match with Hong**. If we exclude the difference in strength and status, our compatibility is evenly matched! As for the beautiful love praised in those poems, I'm sorry, we are not that kind of relationship. But I still think it is very beautiful, quite satisfy……"

"I hope Brother Bu Shui won't cause trouble because of this in the future! After all, like ours, marriage is largely out of our hands."

After hearing the words, Liangshige said with emotion.

Gu Shan Bu Shui had expected it, and said lightly:

"That's why I insist on going to Konoha Village and work hard to be a ninja! As long as you are strong enough, you can gain greater autonomy!"

"For the red leaves?"

"Yes, but not only that, but also for all future encounters, there are more choices!"

Some things, if you don't plan for a rainy day, it will be too late to regret when it comes.

The two cousins ​​were at the bow of the boat, blowing the sea breeze, chatting one after another, looking at the sea in the direction of the country of the sea.

The youthful Yoshigeo really likes such topics.At this age, it's time to think about these things, especially family and friends also hinted intentionally or unintentionally, which gave Liangshige more hope for the future.

……

After afternoon tea, Gu Shan Bu Shui, who took a nap for a while, returned to the private office and looked through the documents presented by his subordinates.

Yaskawa Zaihara, who was standing by the side, waited for Gushan Bushui to put down the matter at hand, and then stepped forward respectfully, asking for his opinion on the application for armaments.

"Young master, I don't know what you want?"

"Why is the evaluation of high-explosive bombs and cluster bombs so low, and how did you come to the conclusion that mass production is not recommended?"

"This is the result of our brainstorming and pooling data from multiple sources!"

Yaskawa Zaihara replied,

"The main reason is that the cost is too high, and it is very effective in surprise attacks. In fact, our Gushan family's external conflicts are mostly concentrated in various encounters and security battles. There is no such thing as too advanced And uneconomical weapons come in handy. If the energy of manufacturing weapons and cultivating professionals is put into the more traditional armed field, it is absolutely possible to train a group of absolutely elite troops..."

"So, your opinion is to give up?"

Seemingly aware of the unhappiness of Gushan Boshui, Yaskawa Zaihara sorted out the measures and replied cautiously:

"Abandoning it entirely is inappropriate, and my opinion is that it should be maintained as a necessary deterrent, but all hope cannot be placed here..."
