Chapter 8
08 Kamizato family, the choice made under political struggle
Hanyu Genichi put down the letter in his hand, and a trace of haze flashed in his eyes. The content on this letter made Hanyu Genichi’s originally good mood become extremely bad.
The old patriarch of the Kamisato family is critically ill. The old patriarch of the Kamisato family is the immediate superior of Hanyu Genichi, or more precisely, the head of Hanyu Genichi’s faction.
Kamisato Aoi, the head of the Kamisato family, Inazuma S-rank samurai, the leader of the Kamisato faction, and Hanyu Genichi is naturally also a member of the Kamisato faction
It’s just that Kamisato Aoi, the leader, is old and his health has not been very good. I didn’t expect that the other party’s condition would become so bad. This time, he was directly notified of his critical illness.
Once Kamisato Aoi, Hanyu Genichi’s biggest backer, gets into trouble, Hanyu Genichi may not be able to be as carefree as he is now. At that time, other factions will definitely pounce on him like hungry wolves and swallow up all the resources that originally belonged to Kamisato’s faction, and Hanyu Genichi will be in trouble.
When the nest is overturned, no eggs can remain intact!
Once Kamisato Aoi is finished, Hanyu Genichi will definitely be finished with him. In order to avoid this from happening, Hanyu Genichi has only two options. The first is to share the wealth and adversity with Kamisato’s faction, but the consequence is that without S-level strongmen as the foundation of the faction, it is impossible to withstand the existing resources, and it will have to live a hard life under the suppression of the opponent.
The second way is to change factions. With Hanyu Genichi’s strength and talent, no matter which faction he changes to, the other party will definitely welcome him. However,
Once this is done, Hanyu Genichi’s reputation will be ruined. Hanyu Genichi is able to be so comfortable now because of Kamisato Aoi. If Hanyu Genichi changes his team now, he will not be able to lose the reputation of being ungrateful.
Even if another faction welcomes you, they will not trust you, let alone entrust you with important tasks. Although you will not be suppressed, you will not be taken seriously either.
Lu Bu, the best general in the Three Kingdoms, is very powerful, but he can never get rid of the label of a traitor.
“Xianyi, I’m coming in!”
Hayasaka Ai walked in from outside, and instantly felt the gloom in the whole room. After seeing the expression on Hanyu Gen’s face, she instantly became worried.
“What happened?”
Hayasaka Ai asked carefully, and Hanyu Genichi frowned and said,”Don’t worry about it, it’s just some political struggle.”
“I have some experience in dealing with political struggles and the like, and I think I can help you think of a solution.”
After taking a look at Hayasaka Ai, Hanyu Gen told Hayasaka Ai about Kamisato Aoi and his family.
“Once the head of the Kamisato family dies, the Kamisato faction will inevitably be suppressed by many parties. At that time, they can only survive. As a member of the Kamisato faction, I will naturally be among them.”
“Before, I couldn’t understand why Sugawara Shinji would come to my house to apologize. It seemed like he was paving the way for the faction behind him to win me over!”
After thinking about it for a while, Hayasaka Ai asked Hanyu a few questions.
“Xianyi, can I ask a few questions?”
“Well? Ask me. I won’t answer anything I can’t answer.”
Hayasaka Ai quickly asked:”Xianyi, do you have an important position in the Kamisato family?”
Hanyu Genichi was silent for a moment and then replied:”In the Kamisato family, I am the person with the highest status after Kamisato Aoi. Even Kamisato Aoi’s eldest grandson Kamisato Ayato is not as high as me.”
After hearing this answer, Hayasaka Ai responded decisively:”If Kamisato Aoi dies, the Kamisato family will have no protector, then will your life be in danger, Genichi?”
“No, at our level, even in a political struggle, the most we lose is resources and power. As long as we don’t do anything anti-human, the most we lose is to be transferred to a pension position.”
A smile appeared on Hayasaka Ai’s face:”So if you, Genichi, become an S-rank expert, will you have a chance to make a comeback?”
“Yes, but without the resources, it may take ten, twenty, or even thirty years to reach S-level!”
Hayasaka Ai calmly responded,”As long as you are alive, you still have a chance, so my suggestion is to share the joys and sorrows with Kamisato’s family. If Kamisato’s family has a legitimate daughter, you can marry her, or even use this opportunity to move into Kamisato’s family and turn it into Hanyu’s family!”
Hanyu Genichi looked at Hayasaka Ai in surprise. Hayasaka Ai was so ambitious that she wanted Hanyu Genichi to swallow up the Kamisato system?
“Moreover, once you betray the Kamisato clan, the Kamisato clan will inevitably hate you immensely, and other factions will also be defensive and marginalize you. Therefore, if you want to make further progress, you can only stay in the Kamisato clan. There may be temporary setbacks, but there is still a future.”
“The most important thing right now is that if you are going to accept my advice, then I think you should go and show your loyalty to the head of the Kamisato family.”
Hayasaka Ai reminded Hanyu Genichi
Hanyu Genichi did not reply but closed his eyes and fell into thought. This trip would completely tie him to the Kamisato family. Was it really worth it?
Finally, Hanyu Genichi opened his eyes and said,”Have someone prepare the car, I need to go to Kamisato’s house!”
“OK, I’ll go now.”
Hanyu Genichi looked at Hayasaka Ai’s back and sighed, she is indeed worthy of being educated by an elite, she is much smarter than me
If Hanyu Genichi had been as smart as Hayasaka Ai, he wouldn’t have fallen into the trap of the Kamisato family. But forget about Hanyu Genichi. With the Kamisato family in front of him, he just needs to live the life he wants freely.
In fact, without Hayasaka Ai telling him, Hanyu Genichi knew that he couldn’t betray Kamisato. If he was given some time, Hanyu Genichi could make a decision himself, but he definitely didn’t make up his mind as quickly as Hayasaka Ai.
Soon the oxcart was ready, and as soon as Hanyu Genichi went out, carrier pigeons were released from Hanyu Genichi’s mansion.
And all this is under the watchful eyes
Similarly, Hanyu Genichi on the oxcart opened the curtains, looked at the flying pigeons, smiled, and then closed the curtains again.
“It seems that many people have been bribed.”
