Tokugawa Takahiro's power cannot be overstated in Japan.
However, when it comes to the selection of the future emperor, all persistence has become a joke.
Japan and China are different.
Putting aside the Vampire Society, a big hand hidden behind the scenes.
The ancient martial arts sects of China are basically hidden from the world.
But aristocratic families and wealthy families can only worship ancient warriors.
The cheapest ancient martial arts offerings never cost less than 100 million a year.
Moreover, this is the only rare master of the small Yeluzi sect that cannot be named.
As for super sects, the guaranteed price for any elder-level offering is one billion a year.
Compared with money, the ancient martial arts offering is basically the family's Dinghai Shenzhen.
Worshiping this creature can really save your life.
In fact, this is more of a transaction.
But Japan is different.
First of all, the status of Shintoism in Japan is supreme.
The royal family is only the highest in theory, and the mascot should take flight.
Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, their emperor is still a descendant of Amaterasu.
Shintoism, on the other hand, protects the descendants of the gods.
Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, no matter how powerful Shintoism is, they must listen to the royal family.
Actually, it happens not to be.
Shintoism has long controlled the royal family.
It can even be said that Shintoism controls everything in Japan.
Royal family, nobles, Chinese, plutocrats, resources, power.
After all, it is different from China, which has a vast land and abundant resources.
In order to control Japan, Shintoism, once there are masters from other sects whose strength reaches the level of Tennin or so-called saints, they will be absorbed by Shintoism and become so-called priests.
And for those people, this is the highest honor.
This led to ancient aristocratic families like the Genji and Taira clans that had been inherited for thousands of years to gradually penetrate step by step and control Shintoism.
Today, Shintoism is divided into two camps.
One is controlled by Genji and the other is controlled by Taira.
Su Mu stood in front of Tokugawa Xiaoheng, condescendingly:
"How about I make you the high priest of Shintoism?"
The expression on Tokugawa Takahiro's face didn't seem to change at all, but his cheeks trembled slightly uncontrollably.
He stared at Su Mu for a long time, and then slowly moved his eyes to Fujiwara Yukihime.
Su Mu immediately understood what he meant and smiled:
"Or, how about letting your little disciple become a Shinto... saint and let her control Shinto?"
Fujiwara Kokihime said in horror:
"No, no, no, I can't do it."
Tokugawa Takaheng's face suddenly darkened, and Fujiwara Koyukihime was so frightened that she crawled on the ground and did not dare to raise her head.
He squinted at Su Mu again, as if he wanted to see through the guy in front of him.
It's a pity that Su Mu lost his strength, but he still gave people a feeling of being slippery.
The palace fell into dead silence.
More than ten minutes have passed.
Tokugawa Takahiro finally nodded slowly:
"If you can do it, I am willing to be loyal to you. When Xiong Jie takes that position, all the resources at his disposal will be used by you."
"Even if it is...!"
Tokugawa Takahiro was silent for a moment:
"Let him, in front of the whole world, truly... apologize and compensate for that war."
This time it was Su Mu's turn to have his cheeks tremble uncontrollably.
This temptation cannot be said to be great.
But...it's too big.
If he can accomplish this, I'm afraid the old man will give himself another Guards Medal, right?
never mind.
One death-free gold medal is enough.
If you take too much, it will be useless.
Tokugawa Takaheng slowly raised his body solemnly, and then knelt down facing Su Mu.
Hold your chest out.
Lower your head.
Putting his hands on his thighs, maintaining an inclination of 45 degrees, he waited for Su Mu to speak.
Su Mu gritted his teeth:
"What do I need to do?"
No matter how sincere and humble the Japanese seem to be, once they have the power to bite back, they will turn into a poisonous snake and turn back to bite people without hesitation.
Su Mu didn't have much favorable impressions of Chinese people like Tokugawa Takaheng.
A little bit.
But it's also very limited.
Tokugawa Takahiro didn't say anything. Instead, he pointed at Fujiwara Yukihime and said:
"Judian, can this disciple of mine still catch your eye?"
Su Mu’s heart was ringing with alarm:
"What do you mean? I'm...!"
Tokugawa Takahiro smiled and said:
"Shinto saints cannot marry."
Su Mu was just half relieved when he was struck by the words from Tokugawa Takahiro's mouth:
"But you can have children."
Fujiwara-chan was trembling all over, her face was blood red, but she was still lying on the ground and did not dare to get up.
Su Mu staggered at his feet.
He looked at Tokugawa Takahiro in horror, his mind spinning rapidly.
What does Tokugawa Takahiro mean?
That's what it means literally.
What the hell.
More than a thousand years ago, you liked to cross species.
Now it's actually on the young master's head?
Tokugawa Takahiro said directly:
"Her child will be adopted into Xiong Jie's name and become the next generation heir of the royal family."
Su Mu opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.
What the hell.
Never mind the weird stuff.
I just want to ask you whether this operation is cool or not?
During the Song Dynasty, the Japanese country secretly selected a group of the most beautiful Japanese girls and quietly entered China from Quanzhou.
These Japanese girls were sent to the families of officials as slaves through various means.
Each of them carries a sacred mission.
Try your best to let the master you serve sleep with them.
Once they become pregnant, they will be quietly sent back to Japan.
After these maids go back, they will become extremely noble and popular, and the princes and famous people will all compete for them.
That's right.
Take them as wives.
This was extremely glorious at the time.
The social status of these Japanese women is higher than that of their daimyo husbands.
And if the child they give birth to is a boy, he must be the perfect heir.
What if it's a daughter?
hehe.
The other famous names are eager to compete and marry.
This is how the Chinese people complete the blood exchange.
Among the unofficial histories, there are shadows of Japanese women in the illegitimate child incident of Su Shi and Su Dongpo.
We even know that now, a thousand years ago, the bloodline of the self-proclaimed illegitimate son of Su Shi is still extremely prominent in Japan.
Just say fantasy or not, right?
Su Shi's Cold Food Poster written at that time is said to be the third running script in the world, Wang Xizhi's Lanting Preface, and Yan Zhenqing's Nephew Memorial Manuscript. One is a copy, one is in Taiwan, and the other is in Fusang, Japan, in the hands of the so-called descendants of Su Shi.
The story is just so... magical.
Japanese people focus on inheritance but not on bloodline.
Many chaebols will not pass it on to their sons.
Because the son is useless.
So, they will be passed on to...the son-in-law.
Of course, the son-in-law must change his surname, and the children must also change their surname.
This is the reason why the ancient nobility of Japan can be passed down for more than a thousand years, or even two thousand years without extinction.
Su Mu is thinking...!
I really got an illegitimate son and became the emperor of Japan.
