Chapter 457: The Art of PPT Pancake, the Shogunate Era
When Teru Ueno heard this, he broke into a cold sweat:
"My subordinate is stupid, please forgive me, Hokage-sama."
"It won't happen again."
Qianye was the last one to come, but now, after he stepped out, people dared to spread their legs and follow him, forming a huge long queue.
The sea of fire always shrouded everyone's heads, dispelling the chill on everyone's bodies.
...
After entering the capital, the people behind him dispersed.
Ueno Teru's eyes flashed and he quickly said to his bodyguard:
"Find someone to explain clearly to the people in the capital what happened just now. It was not a gift from God, but a miracle performed by the Hokage."
Qianye might not care if the people here in the River Kingdom would be angry with him because of this. Traces left over from the war could still be seen vaguely on both sides of the streets. The collapsed houses had not had time to be cleaned up. From time to time, residents could be seen walking from these collapsed ruins.
Collect wood and use it as firewood for heating.
Most of them were wearing bloated and worn-out cotton-padded jackets, which looked like leaky buckets and had poor thermal insulation effect.
Pedestrians one after another shivered in the cold wind.
This winter is extremely cold, and if there is no one to help, it may be difficult to get through it.
Qianye walked all the way into Daming Mansion and saw all this.
After arriving at the Daming Mansion, Qianye naturally called Nohui and Nara Shikaku into the main hall as the master to discuss matters.
The rest of the people had to wait outside the main hall for the time being.
The servants brought pots of charcoal fire, and the red-hot charcoal fire released high heat, and people gathered around the stove, making it warm.
No matter in which period, the upper class can enjoy a variety of resources.
This is also the charm of power.
Qianye sat in the daimyo's seat: "It's going to be cold this year. Remember to take precautions, otherwise many people may not be able to survive this winter."
The people of the River Country are valuable and important productive forces.
It is also Qianye's important wealth. If it is lost, he will feel distressed.
Ueno Teru: "Hokage-sama, I will try my best to mobilize resources to ensure that the people of the River Country survive this cold winter."
"If you need any supplies, you can tell the cabinet and they will cooperate with you." Qianye is not the kind of person who will stop taking care of things just by saying something.
He knew that if he wanted to make people immortal, just talking about it wouldn't work, he had to do it.
There is no shortage of manpower, material resources, and Konoha.
Moreover, this kind of thing can also enhance the influence of the Qianye regime.
It is Qianye who benefits the people, and the missionary team stationed in the River Kingdom will deeply implant this concept into the hearts of the people of the River Kingdom.
It's not his style to do good deeds without leaving a name.
Ueno Teru bowed down and showed joy: "Thank you, Hokage-sama, for understanding my difficulties. With the help of all the ministers in the cabinet, I am confident that I can survive this cold winter and usher in the spring!"
"If you work hard, I won't treat you and your family badly."
Ueno Teru: "Lord Hokage, I request you to confer upon me the title of daimyo of the River Country in the name of the national advisor of the Country of Fire."
This is the last great gift from Teru Ueno.
After Ueno Teru overthrew the original ruling class of River Country, he refused to ascend the throne and continued to act as a general in order to wait for Qianye to canonize him.
Doing so can legally make the River Country a vassal state of the Fire Country.
After the Fire Nation became the suzerain of the River Nation, many of its plans became reasonable and legal.
No matter how much the outside world criticizes, it has not violated the 'rules'.
The reason why Qianye has to follow this rule temporarily is because his power is not enough to completely overwhelm the entire ninja world.
When you are weak, there is no problem in following the rules on the surface.
It can also temporarily paralyze the judgment of the outside world and at the same time release a signal——
I follow the rules.
This signal may not have any effect at ordinary times, but at critical moments, it will become a life-saving straw for those who are enemies of him.
As long as Qianye is willing to follow the rules, they don't have to worry about being killed by Qianye for no reason.
Once life is guaranteed, the intensity of resistance will naturally be greatly reduced, and it may even fall to your knees at the speed of light.
At the same time, it can also restore the poor political image of the Qianye regime in the international community.
Although.......
This kind of operation is quite similar to taking off your pants and farting.
But something is better than nothing.
A gentle smile appeared on Qianye's lips: "Hui Jun is interested in this matter. I will let the cabinet select a good day to canonize you as soon as possible."
Ueno Teru continued: "After discussion between the Hokage, the minister, and Nara Shikakusaku, the current Damingfu alone is unable to cope with the complex situation in the ninja world, and it is difficult to lead the River Country out of the predicament.
After Nara Shikaku-sama’s advice, I want to establish a shogunate to assist the Daimyo Prefecture in managing the River Country.”
The Daming Palace and the Shogunate are two-fold framework.
I have mentioned the origin of the shogunate before. The shogunate said it assisted the Daming government in handling government affairs, but in fact it usurped the power of the Daming government.
As time goes by, this phenomenon will continue to intensify, eventually reappearing the shogunate era of Sakura.
In the ninja world, the establishment of the shogunate was promoted by Qianye, and its purpose was to encroach on the power of the Daming Palace openly.
Moreover, driven by man-made subjectivity, the shogunate era will soon come.
Positions in the Daimyo Palace will become nursing homes, and the shogunate is the real governing body of the River Country.
As the master behind the shogunate, the Qianye regime can directly rule the River Country with the shogunate.
Doing so will also reduce the resistance of the ruling classes in other countries——
At least the Daming Palace is still there, and they haven't completely lost power.
This is a false hope.
Once Qianye completes farming, the dual political framework of the Shogunate and the Daming Prefecture can be kicked out of the way.
"Huijun, do you have any talents that you would like to recommend?"
"Hui's foundation is shallow, and the time after success is still short. There is no guarantee whether the recommended talents are talents, so Fai boldly asks the Hokage-sama to give you some advice."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ueno Teru is really very interesting. Qianye said with a smile: "As for the list of personnel in the shogunate, I will ask the cabinet to make a list as soon as possible. In addition,
Huijun can also arrange for his favorite talents to enter the shogunate.
If talents are left unused, how can they become useful?"
It sounds great to have the cake all to yourself, but if you want to grow bigger and stronger, sharing the cake is essential.
Ueno Teru was so sensible that he handed over this rich cake from the Kingdom of Rivers. If Qianye didn't even share a piece of the cake with Ueno Teru, it would give people the impression of excessive greed and unclear rewards and punishments.
Furthermore, what Qianye needs and what they need are not the same.
Therefore, Qianye will never be stingy when sharing the cake. All those who follow him can taste the sweetness of the cake, and then follow his footsteps more firmly.
Ueno Teru received an invisible promise from Qianye, and without saying a word, he kowtowed three times with a faint blush on his forehead: "Fai, thank you, Hokage-sama, for making it possible. Your will will always be Fai's will!"
Qianye's generosity surprised Ueno Teru. He had been giving gifts to Qianye before, but he was worried that Qianye would turn his back on him, so he treated him like a rag and threw it away after use.
But he didn't expect that Qianye didn't want to deal with him, but instead generously gave him some authority over the River Country.
How could this unexpected answer not surprise Ueno Teru?
"Hokage-sama, Teru has one last request," Ueno Teru raised his head with firm eyes: "Fai requests that Hokage-sama abolish the position of daimyo and only establish the shogun!"
If the group of people outside the palace knew what Teru Ueno said at this moment, they would definitely think that he was crazy, very crazy!
This is a great name, a great name that can be passed down from generation to generation, a great name that dominates a country.
Ueno Teru actually asked Qianye to abolish his daimyo position. Isn't this crazy?
Is Teru Ueno really crazy?
He knew very well that he was not crazy.
Only by abolishing the position of daimyo can his family truly integrate into the Qianye regime.
Ueno Teru's location determines that he has more sources of intelligence information than others.
He already knew that Qianye had annexed Sand Hidden Village. After the fall of Sand Hidden Village, it was only a matter of time before the Kingdom of Wind fell into Qianye's hands.
Ueno Teru is very sure that the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of River are definitely not the end points of the Thousand Nights Journey.
People in the world may think that even if Uchiha Chiya annexes the Kingdom of Wind and wants to dominate thousands of miles and unify the entire ninja world, it is fanciful.
The Iwagakure and Kumogakure villages in the north, as well as the Kusanagi Village, Taki Ninja Village, and Star Ninja Village, the samurai of the Iron Country, and the Snow Ninja Village of the Snow Country are not vegetarians.
With so many ninja villages united, how can Konoha win?
But for some reason, Teru Ueno firmly believed that Uchiha Chiya could unify the ninja world.
Maybe it was the almost crazy coldness and determination that Qianye showed in the banquet hall that day, or maybe it was his exaggerated incitement.
Ueno Teru is very convinced that the River Country is by no means the end of the Thousand Nights Journey.
At the same time, he also determined based on the information he collected from Konoha Daily that Qianye was very generous in delegating power and was not stingy at all, but this generosity had a prerequisite——
All devolved powers must be under his control.
Even if he can delegate this power at any time, he can also take back this power at any time.
After Qianye became the national master of the Land of Fire, Ueno Teru determined that Qianye was seriously dissatisfied with the daimyo, a political creature.
The name that can be passed down from generation to generation is a cancer in Uchiha Chiya's eyes, an old disease that must be eliminated.
If he clings to the rootless duckweed of his name and refuses to let go, he will end up in this position sooner or later.
Again, taking the position of daimyo did not rely on his own efforts, but on Qianye's support.
Without Qianye's support, he would have been completely cold now, and the grass on the grave would probably have grown taller after spring.
After losing his position as daimyo, Uchiha Qianye would most likely let him succeed him as shogun from the perspective of political stability.
Shoguns are not passed down from generation to generation.
Since the Daimyo are canonized by the Fire Nation, then the Shogunate, as an institution under the Daimyo Prefecture, can legitimately be canonized by the Fire Nation.
When the time comes, the term system will be adopted to prevent the shogun from evolving into a de facto daimyo.
After the shogun eliminates the possibility of generational inheritance, this organization can directly manage the country as Konoha's mastermind in managing the River Country.
Ueno Teru even believes that after a period of transition, the shogunate will be banned by Qianye, and the River Country will join the Qianye regime with a new identity and become a member of the grand territory of the Qianye regime.
We came to this conclusion not because Ueno Teru was extremely smart, but because he was able to hold on to his inner greed.
Because he is not greedy, Teru Ueno is able to analyze these things from a relatively objective perspective.
This leads to this conclusion.
Qianye shook his head and said: "Huijun, it's too early to do this now."
Qianye was not surprised that Ueno Hui guessed his intention.
There is never a shortage of smart people in this world, and it is not difficult for others to figure out his views and attitudes on this matter.
The difficult thing is that after knowing his opinions, you can still control your desires and cooperate with his people.
But it is indeed too early to do this kind of thing now.
The River Country has just completed its coup and realized the "Spring of the River Country", so it is not appropriate to cancel the Daming Palace.
The disadvantages of canceling Damingfu far outweigh the advantages.
Apart from other things, this matter will definitely arouse the vigilance and fear of the nobles and senior officials of other surrounding countries, which will in turn have a serious negative impact on the Six Nations Talks.
When the time comes later, it won’t be too late to cancel Daming Mansion.
The cooked duck is in the pot, and there are countless pairs of loyal eyes staring at the duck. Are you still afraid that it will suddenly fly away from the iron pot?
"I am entirely at the mercy of Hokage-sama."
Ueno Teru also knew that the probability of Qianye agreeing to his proposal was very low.
He knew this and still mentioned it because he wanted to express his intention to Qianye again——
'Hokage-sama, I have no thoughts about the position of Daimyo. I will always be your loyal minion. I will go wherever you point me, without any hesitation!'
Qianye: "Hui-kun, the shogunate should be established before the canonization ceremony begins. On the day of the canonization ceremony, I will also consecrate you to become the daimyo of the River Kingdom and concurrently serve as the shogunate."
"From now on, the focus of managing the River Kingdom will gradually shift to the shogunate. I hope you can actively communicate with the ministers in the cabinet when things happen. As long as Huijun does a good enough job, it is not impossible to join the cabinet in the future."
Enter the cabinet?!
Ueno Teru's pupils contracted violently.
That means joining the cabinet and becoming a cabinet member under the Qianye regime!
Is there any comparison between the shogun of a small country and the cabinet that spans the ninja world?
There is absolutely no comparison.
As long as his brain is not broken, he will not refuse this pie.
Ueno Teru was knocked unconscious by Qianye's PPT pie technique.
The subjective initiative generated by the stimulation of benefits and the stimulation of no benefits are completely different. Ueno Teru is now in a state of excitement. He just wants to cooperate with Qianye's orders wholeheartedly, and then leave the Kingdom of the River and enter the Qianye regime.
