"Grandpa, I was just impulsive at the moment. I won't dare to do it again." Takumi Takazaki bent down to explain, but the smile on the corners of his mouth was a little obvious, causing several old men sitting on both sides who were also wearing kimonos to roll their eyes.

"Impulsive? Is that a reason?

Humph! Do you think an apology is enough?

If it weren’t for good luck, this incident would have almost brought disaster to the family!

Our family has been passed down for hundreds of years, relying on prudence, stability and wisdom. How can we allow you to act so recklessly! ! "

"I understand I was wrong. I just wanted to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. I didn't want my brother to apologize and bring shame to the family. But I didn't expect the situation to develop like this..."

"Solve the problem? You are just creating trouble! Why don't you consult with your elders before doing anything? You are inexperienced and just based on your momentary enthusiasm, how can you handle the complex situations in this world?"

"I understand. I will never dare to act on my own again. I will consult my elders before doing anything."

"Takumi, you must remember that everything we have did not come out of thin air. It is the foundation accumulated by our ancestors with their sweat and wisdom. You are responsible for continuing the glory of the family. Don't act so absurdly anymore."

Takumi Takazaki nodded quickly and said, "Yes, grandpa, I will follow your teachings." He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he can turn the page this time.

“And you guys! Although you are not from my Takasaki family, I have always treated you as my own grandchildren just like Takumi, but look at what you have done!

You just do whatever Takumi tells you to do! Next time I ask you to rebel, will you also bring your family along with you? "

Hearing this, a bald young man kneeling behind Takasaki Takumi raised his head and said, "If that day comes, I will definitely follow Master Takumi's orders!"

"Baka! Your brothers followed that brat Takuto and acted lawless in China. You guys can't hold back your restlessness and want to make some big noise, right?"

Although the other young men did not speak, they all nodded, but they could not help but glance at the old men sitting next to them.

Although the one at the top is the head of the Takazaki family, he is Takazaki Takumi's grandfather, not his own grandfather,

But the ones next to it are!

There are so many people around now, and they may not beat me for the sake of the family's face, but there is no guarantee that they won't teach me a lesson when they go back!

After all, this time it has stirred up a large-scale demonstration in the country, and the situation outside is still in chaos!

The bald young man's words caused the zashiki to fall into silence for a while.

Several complicated gazes wandered over Takumi Takazaki and the others. It was unknown how long it had passed before the voice sounded again.

"Takumi, His Majesty has just discussed with the military. In order to quell the protests in the country and divert the anger of the people, the military has moved up the plan.

So not only did you fail to help Takuto this time, you may also make him overwhelmed. I don’t know if he is ready! Oh... "

"What! Early? Early to what point?" Takumi asked in surprise.

"The exact time is uncertain. The military is going to give the decision to the Chinese garrison troops themselves, but I know it may be in the next few days. The domestic protests cannot be suppressed for long, and the hatred must be diverted!"

Takazaki Takumi frowned and said to himself, "That means once the garrison has formulated a plan, they may take action at any time!"

“That’s right, so I called you back this time for another reason, which is to speed up the transfer.

You should also prepare yourself. I will find an opportunity to have the cabinet appoint you as an ambassador abroad. Before the outcome of the battle between the Empire and China is decided, don't come back. Grandpa and your father will be watching over you in Japan. Everyone else should leave!"

"Grandpa, do you really have no hope for the empire? Why are you so anxious to let me go?" Takumi Takazaki asked solemnly.

“Of course I am optimistic about the empire, but once the war starts, there will definitely be constant disputes within the empire.

His Majesty the Emperor, the Army Ministry, the Navy Ministry, the Cabinet, and the forces of various countries are all unstable factors. No one can predict the final destination of this battleship of the Empire of Japan.

And it is impossible for us to put all our capital on the empire at this time.

From now on, everything the family has overseas will be handed over to you. Grandpa will help you take care of the country. You don’t have to worry about Takuto. He and Your Majesty are becoming more and more involved, so there won’t be any big problems.

We can only make a final decision after everything becomes clear.

Although helping others in times of need can bring the most benefits, it may also result in loss of both money and life. We only seek to add icing on the cake.”

Takasaki Takumi lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "So Grandpa, you are going to get close to the military?! This time the military dared to ask Takuto to apologize, did they get your support?!"

“Ah… you don’t need to know this. No matter what, the one who ultimately benefited from you this time was Takuto. He has become a household name in Japan like a hero.

The military has indeed suffered heavy losses in this fight. Not only is Sugiyama Moto's position as Army Minister likely to be lost, but the positions of several generals will also be changed."

Takazaki Takumi had already heard the answer from his grandfather's words. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened his eyes and said solemnly: "Grandpa, don't forget that the Takazaki family cannot live without my brother. If something happens to him, our Takazaki family will..."

"I know. I'm the head of the Takasaki family. I value the family more than you do! Takuto was the one who caused the trouble in the first place. We just wanted him to make a small sacrifice, but you ruined it. Now, Takuto will probably be crazy from now on.

His Majesty and the Takazaki family are standing behind him, and there are so many people in the country who support him. I am really worried that he will get angry one day and really make a huge hole for me!"

Takasaki Takumi was surprised and said, "Grandpa wants to use Takuto's apology to teach him a lesson and make him quiet down?"

"Not just him! There are also the two girls beside him, especially the little one!" As he spoke, the old man Yingqi, who was sitting at the main seat, turned his head indignantly and looked at a thin old man who was kneeling behind him with his eyes closed. "Hey, Fujita, your adopted daughter, won't you give me an explanation?"

"Smimasai, head of the family, the two of them are the maids of Master Takuto. They have nothing to do with our Fujita family. Whether to kill or cut them is entirely up to the Takasaki family. We, the Fujita family, will not have any complaints!" said the thin old man expressionlessly, with a curled up corner of his mouth, looking indifferent.

"Baga! If I kill your two precious granddaughters, you will go crazy with me!

Your precious granddaughter is so young, but she is learning to skin and pull out tendons like a butcher. Your Fujita family is really a monster! Why was I so blind to choose your girl as Takuto's maid? "

"She is pretty, well-behaved and cute." Old man Fujita said with his chin raised.

"Uh... forget it, I won't talk to you about this, it's annoying!"

Takumi Takazaki couldn't help laughing when he saw his grandfather being humiliated in front of the head of the Fujita family.
