Ninja Ice House

Of course, this is just a simple analogy. In fact, except for the legitimate prince, there is not much difference between the fourth and fortieth picks. Without the support of powerful factions, it will be extremely difficult to get to the top.

As the largest vassal in the clan, and even the only widely recognized second-in-command clan, the Gushan family is different from those poor relatives who cheated and drank with their reputation and lost their family business long ago.

The largest real feudal noble.

Once a subordinate rebels against his superiors, bullies a famous person, or the monarch is unjust and angry, the Gushan family can raise the banner of "Qingjun side" and justifiably "go to Luo" to take over the power of the country.

During the Warring States Period, the Kosugi family was a powerful force that occupied more than 70% of the coastline in the central and eastern coast of the Ninja Continent. At its peak, it was even expected to rule the entire Fire Country. Later, under the persuasion of Senju Hashirama, it joined forces with the Daimyo clan and allowed the Fire Nation to

The country is free from civil strife.

Then again, war is war, and the top nobles in the Fire Country can always find common ancestors if they go back hundreds of years. They are all from the same family anyway, so merging is not unacceptable.

The Kosugi family no longer acts in the name of the country's leader, but still actually controls more than a quarter of the Fire Country, and even maintains great influence in several small countries in the northeast and southeast.

Gu Shanbu Shui, who grew up in such an environment, felt that there were too few lucrative positions among the eager coveters around him.

The secret of power and influence does not lie in the level of official position or the amount of wealth. The closer you are to the master who "has the final say", the more excess benefits you can grab.

In such a situation, how could a low-status and weak maid and her daughter have a place?

Most of the big figures who can reach the pinnacle of the ninja world are not good men and women.

Even if Gu Shan Bu Shui protects Hong Ye and Xiang Lin, as long as someone puts a reward in the underground bounty house, the mother and daughter, who have no ability to protect themselves, will never have a peaceful life.

In a place that hides evil and evil, even the Gushan family may not be able to successfully find the real culprit behind the scenes.

From the Hokage Daimyo to the common people, they really love and hate this group of ninjas who are paid to do things.

If you have money, you can hire experts for your own use, and you don't have to get your hands dirty when doing shady things. It really saves a lot of things, but you have to always beware of backlash. It's really tangled.

The father and son seem to have unlimited glory, but they are actually standing on a dangerous peak. Unlike the Ninja Village, a group that relies entirely on force, the order of the Fire Country makes the reincarnated Gushan Bu Shui become a person with a golden key.

Of course, the lucky ones are also suppressed by the system in disguise.

In the final analysis, the power Gushan Bu Shui can use is extremely powerful, but most of it is not entirely his own.

"Clan, etiquette, and even Shinto customs are like double-edged swords. If used well, they can be harmful. But if you are not careful, you can easily hurt yourself. I am very happy that you have realized this at such a young age! More

What makes me happy is that my son is a good boy of flesh and blood who knows how to love and care for his relatives."

Gushan Zhengcheng said appreciatively,

"Everything in the world is bustling for the sake of profit; everything in the world is bustling for the sake of profit! In life, there is always something to pursue, but on the way forward, many people have lost their duty as a human being and lost their humanity, becoming high-ranking officials and generous salaries.

, slaves of glory and wealth! The noble ancient fir inherits the great destiny of the descendants of gods, shepherds the people, and protects the earth. No matter whether we are benevolent or cruel, mediocre or heroic, loyal or extravagant, we must not forget that we are the legitimate masters...

…”

Force and money can be an important support for Bingguo, but they cannot be regarded as the only cornerstone. Conquering the hearts of the people is the key to the survival of the nobles of the Fire Nation headed by the Daimyo.

"But, now we can't do it, not even the mother..."

Kosugi Bu Shui gurgled quietly, and his father Kosugi Masaki corrected him indifferently:

"There are always unruly people who want to challenge our authority, and there are also those ninjas who seem to be respectful but like to use force to break the law. They are always causing us trouble. But this is not an excuse for our cowardice to escape, but a test of fate.

…”

"Um?"

This statement surprised Gushan Bushui, who was a time traveler but had basically no chance of becoming a ninja.

"Father, you really know how to talk..."

"The so-called test does not require you to wipe out those unruly wandering warriors and rebel ninja organizations, nor does it require you to become enemies of the ninja village, but it requires you to work hard to make the people work for me. Although your mother always treats you

I'm a little dissatisfied with being involved with Konoha ninjas, but I don't have to take you back. Young Master Gusugi should have more important things to do. It's a pity to waste time and energy in Konoha Village. Of course,

You also have your own difficulties. By the way..."

As he spoke, Masaki Furusugi suddenly changed the subject,

"Asuma Sarutobi, the third generation son of the Hokage, applied to join the Guardian Ninja. The daimyo admired it very much. Your mother was also very happy. She felt that you had gained nothing in the Leaf Village..."

"This...has nothing to do with me. Although Sarutobi Asuma and I are in the same grade, we are in different classes, and our relationship is quite normal..."

[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】

Gu Shan Bu Shui quickly cleared the relationship.

Not only were the two not good friends, it would have been fine to persuade the other to run away from home and join the daimyo's service.

Even because Fusugi Fusui and the carefree classmate Mitarai Anko occasionally went out to taste delicious food, and had some interactions with his best friend "wine girl" Yuhi Kurenai, it made Sarutobi Asuma somewhat hostile.

"Anyway, come on, when you really grow up to be able to control such a huge family business, your mother and I will give you more resources to do what you want to do..."

With his identity as Kosugi Bosui, it is reasonable for him to be rejected by Konoha Village in various ways. The so-called miracle did not happen. Personal friendship is not worth mentioning in the face of national events.

On the other hand, illegitimate daughters like Korin, who were basically unable to enter the civilized society, and Togakushi Hinode, the son of Gouyou's retainer, could be accepted and might become Konoha ninjas.

After talking about it, the father and son, who were slightly opportunistic, no longer had the previous estrangement.

Gu Shan Bu Shui reminded him again and asked:

"What do you mean by calculation?"

Xiang Rin's mother was taken in by the Kosugi family very early. It wasn't until Kosugi Bushui was born that she was selected to be a servant. When she was in the nursing home, she was named Hongye because of her bright red hair. Her real name was

Instead, it was gradually forgotten.

This girl, who is more than six years older than Kosugi Fusui, has been working diligently as a maid. She has a beautiful appearance, a slender figure, and a friendly personality. However, her red hair is too eye-catching, and in the eyes of most people in the ninja world, it is not

People who don't have eye-catching advantages and have no status really can't afford such an arrogant hair color.
