[Hokage] Thank you for loving me

Seeing the reluctance and sentimentality on Fukuyama's face, and her persuasion seems to have worked, Xinliu quickly added: "Actually, I know something about the festival between the Sato family and uncle."

"what?"

"At first, when the Sato family proposed to build a ninja village, my uncle ambiguously rejected it on the grounds of lack of funds. So, Uncle Yongzang immediately took the initiative to donate a large sum of money to the national treasury, and my uncle accepted it frankly. The sum of money was not actually used for the plan to build the Ninja Village. Later, Uncle Yongzang made several large donations one after another, and the uncle did not refuse. It was only then that the people discovered that my uncle had transferred all the donations to other places while pretending to agree to their demands."

"In this way, what my brother did is indeed inappropriate. However, the Sato family is as rich as a country. Could it be that they broke up with my brother because of money?"

"It's not really a breakup. But since then, the Sato family no longer counts on Uncle, and sometimes even publicly puts forward some political opinions against Uncle. It seems that Uncle has also begun to formulate some harsh taxation and business policies against the Sato family. , crowding them out in disguise."

"So Sato and the others have completely become brother's opposition?"

"That's right. Moreover, since knowing that it is impossible to build a ninja village in the rainbow country, the Sato family has actively contacted some small ninja villages in private. After the special ninja world war, Uncle Yongzang's son, Mr. Mago, Opportunities for business transactions in other countries, spent money to win over the high-level officials of Yuren Village, Caoren Village and other villages, and invited their Jonin to give special training to the guards of the Sato family, and seemed to want to build a ninja army by themselves. At the same time, his uncle was assassinated twice in Rainbow City. After in-depth investigation, he learned of the plan of the Sato family and suspected that they sent ninjas to do it. Therefore, the uncle concluded that the Sato family was suspected of usurping military power. In anger, he imprisoned Mr. Masato, and executed several clan members and aides of the Sato family who were in charge of this matter."

"That is to say, the Sato family really wanted to assassinate the elder brother? And the elder brother severely punished the Sato family for this?"

"Who is behind the assassination, I don't know. However, no one can tell whether the purpose of the Sato family's establishment of the Ninja Legion is to usurp power, or just to realize Uncle Yongzang's dream; Uncle said to Sato It is understandable for everyone to make the worst guesses and deal with them in a severe manner. After Mr. Zhenxiang was locked up, Uncle Yongzang raised a large sum of money to intercede for him, hoping that his uncle could look at the past Release Mr. Mago. However, Uncle seems to think that the punishment is not in place, and confiscated part of the property of the Sato family, so he released Mr. Mago, and strictly ordered him not to leave the Rainbow Country for life."

"Why did my brother not mention it in the letter to me when such an important event happened?"

"Only a few relevant people know the cause and effect of this incident. From the perspective of others, it is just that the rainbow country daimyo has been punishing the ambitious Sato family in the past few years."

"Then why do you know Xinliu so clearly?"

Fukuyama Xinliu froze for a moment, did not answer his father's question directly, but fell into memory, and sighed: "...Uncle Sato's personal clerk is a gentle and good sister... the days when I was with her , It's really beautiful."

"...You guy...I really don't know who your romantic personality is like."

"Isn't it the inherited father?"

"Ahem, speaking of which, where is Masato now? Was he grounded in Sato's mansion?"

At this time, Sato Yongzang, who had been silent in the prison, suddenly replied with grief: "The true hometown, the true hometown...has been missing for a long time..."

"what?"

"After he was released, his body was covered with torture wounds. I asked him to move to the villa to rest for a while. And because I was busy making up for the loss of the family property, I didn't have much time to visit him. Unexpectedly, Unexpectedly, when his surname came to inform me, he had already disappeared!"

"How is it possible? Didn't my brother ground him? He must have been sent to monitor him all the time. Do those people know where Zhenxiang is?"

"Stop being hypocritical! It was Koichiro who sent people to take Masato away! Maybe those people have quietly executed Masato... my only child...!"

"No, no, how could he treat you and Zhenxiang like this!"

"How is it impossible! Do you know that there was no assassination at all! It was all a one-man show by that guy, with the purpose of blaming Zhenxiang and giving our family the stigma of usurping military power."

"If your family didn't assassinate your brother, then there must be some misunderstanding. However, it is absolutely impossible for your brother to deliberately frame you!"

"Kojiro, you are still so naive. That guy has been sitting in the daimyo position for a long time, and he has long been corrupted by power and desire! He clearly knows that the establishment of Ninja Village is my childhood dream, but he does it again and again. Taking this as an opportunity, they squeezed our family's property, excluded the Sato clan, and maliciously slandered us! In the end, even my son was not spared!"

"Impossible! You must have misunderstood!"

"Do you know why he let you go to the Land of Fire? It's also because you are more popular in the country and have a better relationship with me. He is afraid that you will steal the position of daimyo, so he deliberately kicked you out of the Land of Rainbow !"

"Enough! Enough! Stop talking!"

No wonder Sato Yongzang wanted to assassinate himself, so it was to avenge Makoto.

No wonder my brother was able to raise so much money to rebuild Rainbow City in a short period of time.

No wonder no matter how much he gave Sato a chance, he was unwilling to admit his mistake. It turned out that it was because of his elder brother...

Fukuyama's mind was in chaos, he slapped his palm on the wooden fence between him and Sato, showing a painful expression.

"Father, please don't get excited." Taiyi quickly stepped forward to support Fushan, and gently persuaded: "Xinliu is right, you don't need to rush to interrogate all the situation now. Let's stop here for today, and wait for the enthronement ceremony After that, it won't be too late to find Uncle Sato to understand clearly."

"Yes, Mr. Fukuyama, you are already very tired from the long journey these days, and you should not have too much emotional fluctuations. You should go back to your room and rest first." Ikeda also echoed worriedly.

Fukuyama took a few deep breaths. The life of living in other countries all year round and observing words and deeds allowed him to control his emotions well. After a while, he calmly replied: "Okay, then let Sato stay here for a while. Stay for two days, let's go back first."

However, even if you give the other party two more days, what can you ask?

The situation is quite clear, but they just don't want to face it.

What really needs to be considered is actually yourself,

Considering... what to do with Sato...

Negative emotions weighed heavily on his heart, Fukuyama didn't want to stay where he was for a second, he walked out of the dungeon without looking back, Taichi, Yumen and others followed.

When passing by Sato Nagazo, who was full of despair, Sasuke unconsciously slowed down.

Sasuke couldn't be more familiar with the experience of being excluded from the family, the departure of close relatives, and the failure of revenge.

"Another poor man who was teased by fate and fell into the abyss of revenge." He was thinking like this, and a trace of sympathy flashed in the eyes of the old man in the prison.

Sato raised his head and found that Sasuke was standing in front of him and staring at him. He couldn't help but muttered to himself:

"If... if... I can find you first... I can take revenge..."

The black shadow cast by the candlelight covered the fair face, and Sasuke asked in a hoarse voice, "If I wanted to, would you entrust me to kill Kojiro Fukuyama?"

Seemingly not expecting the person in front of him to answer his soliloquies, Sato was taken aback for a moment, then muttered in confusion: "... who knows..."

"Let's go, Sasuke-kun." Sensing Sasuke's strange emotion, Sakura gently tugged on his sleeve.

"……it is good."

"I think Mr. Sato must be reluctant to assassinate Fukuyama-sama." Sakura went out along the dark stairs and analyzed to Sasuke in a low voice: "Because he knew that Konoha sent three jounin to protect Fukuyama." My lord, but he only invited some wandering escaped ninjas to carry out the assassination plan. From the very beginning, he never expected to succeed. After all, Lord Fukuyama was his best friend in childhood, and he was completely different from what the previous daimyo did. It doesn't matter. The assassination or something is just Mr. Sato looking for a way to revenge and vent his anger, and it doesn't matter whether he succeeds or not."

"Maybe." Sasuke followed behind her, answering thoughtfully.

After everyone left the dungeon, Fukuyama Shinryu seriously instructed the two guards:

"Hey, you two! Don't neglect Uncle Yongzang, what request does he have, you must try your best to meet it, you know?"

"Don't worry, Second Young Master." Although temporarily reduced to a prisoner, the family power behind Sato is huge, and the two guards are also very clear, so they can only confess him and treat him with caution.

After the confession, Xinliu looked at the environment of the dungeon, and said to Sato with a smile:

"Then, Uncle Yongzang, I have wronged you to stay here for two more days."

"..."

Finally, Shinryu also left the dungeon.

After a burst of brisk footsteps, there was a muffled sound of "pa——" above the head, and the stone slab at the entrance of the dark passage was closed again, leaving only the flickering candlelight on the wall and the heavy breathing of the guards, mixed in the dark In the stuffy air, accompany Sato through this long night...

The black history is finally finished, if I don’t sprinkle sugar, I’m almost suffocated =, =
