Uchiha Xiao laughed and said, "Let's go, both of you. Let's hold a small meeting in advance to determine the meeting procedures." He opened his arms, put his arms around Hatake Sakumo and Nara Rokumei's shoulders, and walked in.
After a few people walked in, the guard closed the door of the Hokage Building, stood there dutifully, looking into the distance with a solemn expression.
Uchiha Xiao led the two towards the Hokage's office, but Hatake Sakumo said, "Hokage-sama, my duty is to protect your personal safety, so I will not listen to this content. I will guard the door for you."
Uchiha Xiao shook his head and said, "Sakumo, just let your subordinates do these things. As a powerful man ranked among the best in the village, you should also listen to this small meeting."
After Uchiha Xiao said this, Hatake Sakumo stopped refutation and nodded. But before he entered the door, he summoned his capable men to guard the office building and told them that except for Lady Tsunade, everyone else must be stopped.
The two men received the order and stood opposite each other, holding the hilts of their samurai swords.
When Hatake Sakumo came in, Uchiha Owl laughed and said, "Sakumo, come and try the rock tea that the Land of the Earth has sent as tribute. It's good for your health."
Hatake Sakumo walked forward and saw three cups on the table, one for Uchiha Owl, one for Nara Rokumei, and the last one should be his. He felt warm in his heart and said, "Thank you, Hokage, for your kindness."
You have to know that not everyone can drink Uchiha Owl's tea. Hatake Sakumo was only able to drink this tea because of Uchiha Owl's kindness. Besides, it doesn't matter what kind of tea you drink, what matters is who you drink it with.
Drinking tea with Uchiha Xiao makes even ordinary tea taste premium! This is a master!
"We're one family, no need to be so polite." Uchiha Xiao waved his hand. After watching Hatake Sakumo take a sip of tea, he smiled and said, "How is it? It tastes good, right? This tea is extremely rare in the Land of Earth, with only ten kilograms produced a year. And this year, the Land of Earth Daimyo gave us eight kilograms as an apology!"
"I'll get you some later." Uchiha Xiao didn't look distressed at all, as if the rock tea was as insignificant as a small stone on the roadside in his eyes.
After hearing about the yield and preciousness of this rock tea, Hatake Sakumo was about to refuse, but Nara Rokumei pulled his trousers with his hand hidden under the table. Without changing his expression, he praised, "Good tea, good tea! Hokage-sama, I wonder if your subordinate..."
Uchiha Xiao rolled his eyes at him in annoyance and said, "You! You are the only one who knows the goods best! Don't worry, you will be the one to get it!"
Hatake Sakumo was stunned, and Nara Shikamei slid his right hand, which was hidden under the table, across Hatake Sakumo's leg, and stretched out his index finger to write a word on his thigh.
"Collect." As a Kage-level warrior, Hatake Sakumo's perception was extremely sensitive. After receiving the information from Nara Shikaku, he also took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Hokage-sama. I will accept your request with all my heart!"
"Well! That's right, Sakumo, you must remember that you are the leader of the Anbu and my most capable right-hand man, just like Nara Shikaku, but different from others." Uchiha Owl could see Nara Shikaku's little movements with both soul perception and Mangekyō Sharingan.
However, he did not stop it. Instead, he acquiesced to Nara Rokumei's actions and observed Hatake Sakumo's choice. Only when he saw that he accepted it did he smile.
"Moreover, you are a special existence who serves me and only obeys my orders. This is the same as Lu Ming. In other words, you, me, and Lu Ming are the three of us. We shouldn't be so polite to each other!" Uchiha Xiao said meaningfully.
Sometimes, having a high opinion of oneself, behaving arrogantly, and being self-protective are not good things. There is nothing wrong with being humble and modest, but it is important whose light you are with and whose modes you are with.
But don't make the same mistake. If you make the same mistake, you will be kicked out of the circle soon.
"Yes! Lord Hokage, I understand!" Hatake Sakumo stood up and saluted. He was not a fool, so he naturally knew that Uchiha Owl was trying to recruit him and tell him that they were from the same faction and not to distance themselves from each other.
Uchiha Xiao smiled and said, "From now on, you will be like Lu Ming. When no one else is around, call me Xiao Jun. Don't call me your subordinate. I will also call you Shuo Mao!"
This cup of tea was so delicious that it immediately pulled Hatake Sakumo onto his boat and left his mark on him.
Nara Rokumei continued to drink tea. He knew that his actions could not be hidden from Uchiha Owl, but it was because of Uchiha Owl's tacit consent that he did not stop him.
"It tastes so good~ Mr. Xiao, good tea is hard to find, and so is a soulmate. This is a good thing, but looking at the time, let's get to the point! The meeting will start soon. This is the plan I made yesterday, please review it." Nara Shikaku took out a stack of papers from the file cabinet in the Hokage's office and placed it on the desk.
Uchiha Xiao also restrained his previous easygoing expression and said, "Let's take a look together! If there are any shortcomings, we can point them out together, or if you feel there are any inappropriate points, you can also raise them."
Chapter 329 He slandered me!
The three of them divided a large pile of papers into three parts and began to check them. They were shocked when they saw them. Every idea of Nara Luming was thought out in great detail. Even Uchiha Xiao couldn't help but admire him.
This is basically perfect! There's not a single flaw to pick out. This was Hatake Sakumo's first time looking at a plan in the Hokage's office. He took a deep breath and looked at Nara Rokumei, who was sipping tea while reading the plan he had written, and couldn't help but admire him.
Although it was such a perfect plan, Nara Rokumei still had to read it carefully to check for any omissions and fill in the gaps. As he drank, Nara Rokumei's teacup was empty, and he was still unaware of it. Hatake Sakumo hurriedly filled Nara Rokumei's teacup.
Nara Rokumei came back to his senses, looked at Hatake Sakumo and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Hatake Sakumo scratched his head and said, "It's okay!"
Uchiha Xiao didn't say anything when he saw this scene. Isn't it good for one's own people to be harmonious? Why do they have to be so defensive? For example, the strongest Hokage in the original work.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sneezed. "Who's whispering about me?" He then turned to Sarutobi Biwako and said, "Wife, I have to go to a meeting! I won't have breakfast!"
Sarutobi Biwako took out two steamed buns from the steamer and said, "We'll eat them on the way. Seriously, even after retirement, you're still so active in meetings!"
"Hehe." Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled. Although he had left the center of power, he was still aware of the policies and major events in the village.
Each one of them was a major event that benefited the village and the people. He was proud to be a witness to the introduction of these policies and to be the past Third Hokage.
Perhaps because he left the center of power, Sarutobi Hiruzen's mentality has changed in the past six months, and he has begun to care about his family and clan.
Sarutobi Biwako was very happy about this. After all, which wife wouldn't be happy if her husband could spend more time with her?
It's just...it would be better if the time could be longer. I heard from Tsunade that Uchiha Owl is always full of energy after working for twelve hours.
How come they are both Hokage and both villagers, but there is such a big difference between them!
She sighed, "Be careful, go early and come back early!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand and said, "I understand!" At this time, Sarutobi Shinnosuke rushed out and said, "Father, the teacher said that we should also go to audit the class!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Since the Hokage has said so, then you should join your father!" After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen patted his shoulder with a gleam in his eyes.
"Okay! Father!" Sarutobi Shinnosuke said with a smile. He walked in front, full of energy, with nowhere to vent it, so he had to run and jump.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his son and felt very relieved. He would have time to accompany Shinnosuke as he grew up.
Such scenes were also played out in the homes of the six little ones.
Uchiha Xiao twisted his neck and said, "Oh! I'm finally done. I'm not saying anything bad about you, Lu Ming, but you're so thoughtful and even let us watch it together! Are you showing off on purpose?"
"What are you talking about! When planning for others, you must think carefully and take everything into consideration. If I can't do this, then when things happen, I will suffer a great loss if I try to make up for it!" Nara Rokumei argued.
"Isn't that right, Sakumo?" Nara Shikamei smiled at Hatake Sakumo.
"Ah? Me? I, I don't know!" Hatake Sakumo's simple and honest appearance made Uchiha Owl and Nara Luming suddenly laugh out loud. "Luming, look at you, Sakumo just joined our three-person team, why are you teasing him!"
"Haha, I'm just helping him get used to it, so that he won't be fooled by you in the future!" Nara Luming said unhappily.
Uchiha Xiao's face turned serious. "What are you talking about? You are slandering me, he is slandering me!" He pointed at Nara Rokumei and looked at Hatake Sakumo, pointing at Nara Rokumei and explaining.
"Don't listen to Lu Ming's nonsense. I am a loyal brother and would never deceive him! Don't worry about that, Sakumo!" Uchiha Owl looked at Hatake Sakumo with sincerity in his eyes.
"This..." Hatake Sakumo was a little confused. Was this funny guy in front of him really the extremely strict and iron-blooded Fourth Hokage, Uchiha Owl, in his impression?
"Then let's talk about yesterday's overtime!" Nara Luming sneered. He was worried that he had no place to talk to Uchiha Xiao!
Uchiha Xiao's face tensed, and he cleared his throat. "Well, it's getting late. Sakumo, Luming, tell the clan leaders to prepare to enter. Luming, you'll be in charge of counting the people who have arrived, and Sakumo, you'll go identify the clan leaders. That's it! Get busy!"
Nara Luming rolled his eyes at him and said, "Tsk tsk, he was too embarrassed to expose the capitalist's true face," but he still took action.
"Let's go, Sakumo! Our Hokage has given the order, we can't just disobey it, right?" With that, the two of them walked out of the office.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Uchiha Xiao suddenly lay down on the table. What was going on? He had to use the technique of holding Xiao Deng hostage to control Lao Deng in order to make Nara Rokumei shine and become a great strategist.
He did all this for Konoha, why didn't Lu Ming understand him and instead wanted to expose him? I'm tired, really tired. The team has grown and it's hard to lead it, alas!
It would be great if Tsunade was here. She would definitely support me, comfort me, and tell me that I have worked hard.
Tsunade is still the best! Unlike Nara Luming, this guy has 99 pounds of rebellious bones!
Just then, the office door opened and a beautiful figure appeared. The sound of high heels tapping on the floor attracted Uchiha Xiao's attention. He raised his head and looked over, then his pupils shrank.
"Wife! Why are you here! Didn't you go to the meeting room? Come to the office!" Uchiha Xiao smiled and moved closer to her.
"Honey, I miss you so much. You don't know that there are all kinds of birds in the forest now. It makes me so angry!" Uchiha Owl shamelessly complained to Tsunade.
Tsunade was stunned. What was going on? How could he be fine after leaving home, and now he was so aggrieved? Besides, with his strength and methods, who could bully him?
Thank God he doesn't bully others, but as his wife, I still have to show some concern for him.
She looked at Uchiha Xiao with a gentle smile and said, "What's wrong? Who has offended our brave and handsome Hokage~"
Uchiha Xiao pouted. "Who else could it be! That Hokage assistant, Nara Shikaku! He blames me! How dare he blame me!"
Uchiha Xiao told Tsunade about how he had held Xiao Deng hostage to control Lao Deng. Tsunade, who had originally had a gentle expression on her face, gradually became frosty, and then she looked at Uchiha Xiao with a strange expression.
I opened my mouth, but didn't know what to say!
Chapter 330 Fame
Tsunade finally sighed, "Nara Shikaku didn't mean to beat you up, even if he's improved."
"You are trying to steal the bamboo shoots! You have realized how to use Xiao Deng to control Lao Deng. Even capitalists wouldn't dare to do that!" Tsunade was helpless.
"Ahem, little comrade, your awareness is not enough! We are fighting for the great Konoha Village, how can we get along with the capitalists!" Uchiha Owl showed off in front of Tsunade and said with a serious face.
"Hmm? What did you call me? Say it again?" Tsunade frowned. Uchiha Owl was getting bolder? Calling her comrade?
Uchiha Xiao shrank his neck and said, "Wife, wife, I made a slip of the tongue, cough cough."
Tsunade rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't dare to judge how you treat other officials outside, but if you dare to use this method against me, I will make sure you can't get out of bed!"
Uchiha Xiao suddenly felt pain in his lower back and the corners of his mouth twitched. He quickly helped Tsunade to his seat, then squatted down and massaged her legs.
"Oh, my dear wife, how dare I! I will not fool you, no, I will not treat you the way I treat others!" Uchiha Xiao said flatteringly.
"Hmph! You're the better!" Tsunade saw Uchiha Owl's look, and she couldn't get angry at all now!
"Okay, stop hammering. This is a public place. It's not good for people to see us!" Tsunade was thinking about Uchiha Owl. She couldn't help but worry, for fear that others would see her and misunderstand that Uchiha Owl was a henpecked husband!
"Don't worry, I'm not bragging to you, the security level of my office..." Uchiha Xiao hadn't finished his words when the door was pushed open and some sounds were heard from the door.
"Master Shengshu, you can't go in!"
"Master Shengshu, please wait a moment!"
"I can't wait any longer. Watch my powerful punch!" He slammed the door of Uchiha Owl's office open.
Uchiha Xiao's breathing stagnated, Tsunade blushed and looked away, and Shengshu blinked. His brother-in-law was squatting on the ground and massaging his sister's legs?
He grumbled. Was this something he could see? Had he accidentally done something awful?
As the gate was opened, many ninjas saw this scene, but they quickly lowered their heads, with only their shoulders trembling. It was hard not to notice that they were trying to hold back their laughter.
"Senju... Nawaki!" Uchiha Owl gritted his teeth and shouted "Tianyin!" The huge suction force sucked Senju Nawaki in, and then the Anbu lowered their heads and closed the door, but everyone had not left yet. They stood there, wanting to hear the story that followed.
From the Hokage's office, which was well-insulated, came a loud cry: "Ahh! Aa ...
Well, it feels good. Everyone feels good after hearing Shengshu’s cry. That’s right, but we should not forget the melon seller when eating melons! Shengshu, I wish you can successfully escape this disaster!
Everyone left slowly, but they were all discussing how Uchiha Owl was a henpecked husband and how he knelt on the floor in the Hokage's office and massaged Tsunade's legs to show his loyalty.
Moreover, some even say that Tsunade-sama is truly a role model for us girls! Her husband-taming skills are so amazing that the most noble, powerful, and influential man in Konoha has actually been conquered!
Uchiha Xiao didn't know the comments outside, but he was sure that from today onwards, he would be labeled as a "henpecked husband", and this was all thanks to his brother-in-law Senju Nawaki!
"Sister, brother-in-law, stop hitting me. Brother-in-law, I was wrong. I just awakened my supernatural powers and wanted to show off in front of you. Who would have thought it would be like this! I didn't mean it, brother-in-law!" Senju Rope Tree said with a wry smile.
