"Well, thank you." After hearing Yan Yan's words, Rizu felt confident.
He took the initiative to push the teacup in front of Yan.
"You are welcome."
Yan smiled, not polite, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the freshly baked hot tea, and then...
There seems to be no difference between this and boiling water directly?
Jian Yan tasted it carefully, then shook his head vigorously, and the corners of Rizu's mouth twitched twice.
He felt that if it wasn't for the purpose of talking about things, it would definitely be a wrong choice to have tea with Yan.
"Then the cooperation between Hinata and Uchiha may..."
"Very small."
Yan puts it bluntly:
“The premise for cooperation is that both parties have common interests.
Forgive me for being rude, but the current Uchiha are moving in a good direction and do not need the assistance of partners at all.
On the contrary, the Hyuga clan is in a lot of trouble. Such cooperation is simply beneficial to the Hyuga clan, so cooperation is difficult to negotiate."
There are no common interests and no common enemies to face. Under such a premise, it is difficult for big families like Hinata and Uchiha to cooperate.
"What if two families get married?"
"???"
Yan has a black question mark on his face.
Is it true that you come every day?
"This requires the Hyuga clan leader to negotiate with the Fugaku clan leader himself. After all, this is an issue between the two clan heads, and I will not interfere."
Marriage between two families, whether it is the Hyuga clan pushing out a girl from the clan, or the clan marrying an Uchiha, requires the heads of the two families to sit down and negotiate together. This kind of thing does not require Yan to worry about.
"I still have something to do, so I won't accompany the Rizu clan leader."
Smiling and nodding, Yan decisively chose to retreat. He needed to find a place to eat something to fill his stomach, instead of just sitting here drinking tea.
As for Tsunade...
we'll talk about it then.
"Um."
Rizu did not stay.
After Yan left, Rizu quickly returned to his family.
Rizu summoned all the family elders to the patriarch's courtyard. The clan elders came, and even the elders of the branch families came together.
Although there are also many troubles in the family, at least the Hyuga clan, the main family and the branch families can unite on external issues.
Unlike the previous state of Uchiha, where various factions were holding back, nothing could be done.
If you object this time, I will object next time.
If you argue and argue, the matter will never be resolved.
When all the family elders arrived, Rizu recounted the meeting with Yan in detail without omitting anything.
"Why does the Hokage's office building always keep an eye on us, the Hyuga clan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone started to complain.
It's better if Senju Hashirama doesn't care about things, but Senju Tobirama is watching.
Senju Tobirama stared at Uchiha and also at the Hyuga clan.
By the time the Third Hokage arrived, what a shame, it was even more exaggerated. He directly punished Uchiha to death, and the Hyuga clan was not much better.
It would be a shame for the Hyuga clan to hand over their clan leader to calm the anger of the Cloud Ninja Village.
However, the Hyuga clan could not resist, and finally pushed Hyuga Hizashi out.
Everyone in the clan and branch families keep this in mind.
Just because you can't resist doesn't mean you won't hold grudges.
Whether it's the clan or the split, many people hate the Third Hokage and wish this old guy would die soon.
"The clan leader wants to marry Uchiha and achieve cooperation?"
Someone mentioned this important point. Today's Uchiha is no longer the Uchiha who was on the verge of danger in the past. As the misunderstanding was solved, the blame and dirty water also fell on the Akatsuki organization.
In addition, Tsunade is not the Third Hokage and will not deliberately target Uchiha. With Arihiko caught in the middle, all the internal conflicts in the family have been resolved.
Even if Fugaku gets a bad name for this, the Hyuga clan must admit that the Uchiha are indeed thriving.
The situation has become much better than that of the Hyuga clan.
Even if Uchiha lost many family members as a result, the family's overall strength declined.
Again, the necessary sacrifices are worth it.
As these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Rizu.
The clan leader is very disappointed with Miss Hinata, which is a well-known fact within the family.
And the clan leader already has a second daughter, Hanabi.
If the focus of training is shifted to Hanabi, then it wouldn't be a bad idea for Hinata to be pushed out for marriage.
"Have some ideas."
Rizu had no intention of hiding anything and said frankly:
"But it's not with the Uchiha clan, but with Uchiha Yan."
"Uchihahiko?"
Shouldn't talks about cooperation be aimed at the two families?
How did you become a person?
Seeing that many elders looked puzzled, Rizu organized his words and explained:
"Have you, elders, noticed the changes that have occurred in Uchiha since Uchiha Yan stood up?
Although there is support from the clan leader Fugaku behind him, I believe that the changes that Uchiha has achieved today are all because of Uchiha Hiko."
"There is another natural advantage that Uchiha cannot compare with, that is, Hokage-sama trusts Uchiha Yan very much.
Now he has become an advisor to the Hokage's office. If he were not afraid of not being able to convince the public, I think his position would even be that of an assistant to the Hokage, rather than some empty office advisor."
Cooperate with Uchiha?
Come on, Uchiha can't give the Hyuga clan what they want, but Hiko can.
As long as Hiko continues to maintain a good relationship with Tsunade, continues to stabilize his position, and continues to move up.
Rizu believes that sooner or later, Hiko will sit in the position of assisting the Hokage.
Became the most powerful person in Konoha besides Tsunade.
It was not clear to outsiders, but it was clear to Rizu that Tsunade was ready to attack the elders.
Once the elders are attacked, who in Konoha except Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, can compare with Hiko?
"If there are people we trust who are around Hokage-sama, I believe that the problems of the Hyuga clan will be alleviated, and the family and the village will be able to usher in stable peace."
"But will Uchihahiko agree? Besides, Miss Hinata..."
The great elder hesitated.
He admitted that what Hizu said was reasonable and tenable. As long as there was no problem with Yan, he was indeed a suitable target and worthy of investment by the Hyuga clan.
But the problem is, even if Hinata is not a suitable successor to the clan leader, she has a pair of pure white eyes.
Isn’t it a pity to just push it out like this?
Beat a caged bird?
As soon as the idea came up, it was strangled to death.
The great elder knew in his heart that Rizu's character would never allow this to happen.
And whether Yan’s side agrees is still a question.
"As a daughter of the clan, it is her mission to shoulder the important responsibilities of the family."
Hizu replied calmly: "I have already asked, and Yan said that we can negotiate with the Fugaku clan leader."
"..."
Patriarch, are you a bit of a thief?
This is a direct over-interpretation of Yan’s words.
Yan thought that the Hyuga clan wanted to cooperate with the family, not him personally.
However, Nizu directly bypassed him and went to Fugaku to discuss the matter. After everything was settled...
It seems that even if you want to go back on your word, you can't.
Because the honor of the two families is at stake.
