Chapter 804: The Morita Clan of Dongying
The great monk sighed and said slowly: "If the enemy dares to do this, they must be completely prepared, if their target is His Majesty the Emperor, then something must have happened to the Shinto sect." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info only the only one I can count on now is Mr. Sasaki of the new shadow stream. ”
Zen Master Zhilun pondered for a while and said, "Since both the Ichisuji Sect and the Shinto Sect have been attacked, it is likely that the New Shadow Stream will not be spared. Senior brother, why don't I and the other junior brothers guard here, and you should rush to save His Majesty the Emperor immediately." ”
The senior monk pointed to the gate outside and said: "You see, there are tens of thousands of innocent people suffering here, at this critical juncture, or the attack at the gate of Honganji Temple, as a great monk of the Ichi-chan sect, if I don't come forward to encourage people at this time, it will definitely have a great impact on my Ichi-chan, those people may spread rumors and make trouble, so I can't go, I must stay here to calm the overall situation and avoid greater panic." ”
Zen Master Zhilun thought about it, the fact is indeed as the great monk is saying, this kind of unprecedented large-scale attack will definitely immediately cause panic in the whole country, at this time there must be a great monk standing up to stabilize the people's mind, so as not to cause greater problems.
"In this way, aren't we being restrained by these people's moves, and we can't move?"
The senior monk sighed, "That's why I think that today may be the day when His Majesty Emperor Heisei abdicates." ”
Zen Master Zhilun was shocked, "But what exactly is the purpose of these people?" Is it to force His Majesty the Emperor to abdicate? ”
The monk's eyes were like lightning, looking at the Shinto shrine in the distance, and slowly replied: "Only God knows. ”
At the same time, the same situation occurred at the entrance of the Shinto Shrine, the largest shrine of the Shinto sect, when tens of thousands of believers suddenly collapsed and fainted, and the scene was in chaos.
Originally, His Majesty the Emperor was on Kyoto Television tonight, and a large number of police officers in Kyoto City rushed to the city center to escort them, and the security in other areas was already lacking manpower, so the police force was even more stretched, and the Metropolitan Police Department even asked for help from the army, and the army and navy units stationed on the outskirts of the city rushed to the city to help maintain law and order.
The Shinto sect also sent a large number of men to help treat innocent people, and cooperated with the police to search for the murderer who released the poison gas in the crowd, but to no avail.
In addition, although what happened on Kyoto TV was concealed and no media reporters reported it, because Han Jing and the people of "Shinsegae" filmed the incident and broadcast it live on the Internet, the whole country was shaken all at once.
Less than half an hour after the incident, several bigwigs of the cabinet immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss ways to deal with the incident.
The Prime Minister, the Prime Minister of Toei, is the head of the hundred officials, and the pressure on his shoulders is the greatest at this time, and people across the country are watching how he responds to this emergency.
With a gloomy face, the Prime Minister said, "Ladies and gentlemen, there is a great chaos in Kyoto City, and the Honganji Temple and Shinto Shrine have been attacked by terrorists, and these two attacks occurred at the same time, which is obviously premeditated, and now His Majesty the Emperor has been robbed by the people of the 'New World', which has shaken the whole world. Now let's talk about it, is there any way to solve it? ”
At this time, the chief of the Metropolitan Police Department stood up and said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, all the police forces in Kyoto City have been dispatched, as well as special forces, and even the army and navy have entered the city to help. ”
The prime minister nodded and said, "That's for sure, but the disappearance of His Majesty the Emperor, as the supreme spiritual leader of Dongying, this matter can be described as a national shame!" How we get His Majesty the Emperor back is the most important thing, do you have any solutions? ”
The chief of the Metropolitan Police Department frowned and said: "If Dongying's people did it, I can contact the three major sects to help us rescue people, but the problem is that this time it is the 'New World', which is obviously an attack by the 'New World' against Dongying, I'm afraid it ...... Hard. ”
The prime minister couldn't help but say angrily: "You mean, His Majesty the Emperor can't be saved? What do you do with the Metropolitan Police Department!? ”
The director of the Metropolitan Police Department trembled, and said helplessly: "You also know what kind of people are in the 'New World', and I'm afraid there is really no one in our country to deal with them." ”
The prime minister waved his hand impatiently, "Don't tell me that these are useless, let me say that if His Majesty the Emperor can't be saved, everyone here will have no good fruit to eat, and wait for the collective resignation!" ”
The collective resignation of cabinet members is equivalent to the collapse of the cabinet government, and then the hostile political parties will immediately come to power, which involves the struggle of interests between the largest parties, and once they step down because of this kind of thing, the political future of these people will basically be zero.
The thought of such a serious consequence made everyone's faces sank, except for one person.
I saw an old man in his sixties, smoking a cigar gracefully, as if he was not in a hurry at all.
When the prime minister looked at it, he couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Speaker Morita, do you have anything you can do?" ”
This old man who smokes cigars is the speaker of the Toei Diet - Morita Ichiro, he is an evergreen tree in the Toei political arena, no matter what political party has come to power for decades, his position is as stable as Mount Tai, and he has experienced eight prime ministers, and he can be regarded as a veteran of the eight cabinets, so his status in the cabinet is transcendent, and even the prime minister has to look at his face.
Morita smiled slightly, and replied slowly: "Method? My old man doesn't have that much ability, I don't have anything to do. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but think to themselves, you are in a high position and have a lot of disciples, even if we all step down, your position can be kept, of course you are not in a hurry.
Then Morita said: "But I can show you a clear way, whether I can save your current cabinet, I'm not sure, but at least I can minimize the damage." ”
When the prime minister heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Please ask Speaker Morita for advice!" ”
Morita said softly, "I suggest that you hurry to the Imperial Household Agency now, contact His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and let His Highness prepare for the new emperor's accession to the throne." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised, the emperor, as the supreme spiritual leader of Toei, is the symbol of the country, and the abdication and enthronement of the emperor are important matters for the whole country, especially at this juncture of crisis, not to think of a way to rescue the current emperor, but to think about the establishment of a new emperor, is it a bit unreasonable?
The prime minister was also shocked: "What do you mean...... Abandon His Majesty the Emperor? Another new emperor? ”
Morita nodded, stopped talking, and just continued to smoke his cigar.
At this time, the Chancellor of the Exchequer stood up and said, "But the Speaker of the Diet, if you do not go all out to rescue the current emperor and instead go to another emperor, will the people oppose it?" In the 30 years since the current emperor succeeded to the throne, his prestige in the eyes of the people is very high, and if he just gives it up, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people. ”
Morita replied, "If you are sure that you can save the Emperor, I won't say anything, it is obvious that it will be difficult for the Emperor to be rescued." Have you ever thought about it, once there is any accident in the emperor today, and the whole country is shaken, what will you do to stabilize the people's hearts? Rely on our group of old guys, or rely on the monks? I'm afraid it's not enough, right? ”
Hearing this, people suddenly realized that if something happened to Emperor Heisei, the whole country would definitely be in turmoil, and the only thing that could stabilize the situation at that time was for the new emperor to ascend the throne and bring a new generation of spiritual leaders to the people, so as to stabilize the overall situation.
"If something happens to the emperor today, even if a new emperor ascends the throne, the people will be dissatisfied with our cabinet." The Prime Minister asked worriedly.
Morita replied lightly: "Things have already happened, and no one can undo it." The way I'm talking about is to help you minimize your losses and try to retain some public opinion. As for the current emperor, it's up to you to see what you do. ”
This last sentence immediately woke up the prime minister, and he quickly nodded and said, "I understand, Speaker Morita, I'll send someone to do it immediately." ”
So immediately after the meeting, the prime minister delivered a national speech, in which he impassionedly said that even if the whole country did its best, he would save His Majesty the Emperor, and set up an emergency response team headed by him, mobilized people from all walks of life across the country to work together to find the whereabouts of His Majesty the Emperor, and let several major media do 24-hour uninterrupted follow-up reports to show the efforts of this cabinet, and at the same time broadcast some video clips about Emperor Heisei and the Prime Minister's short films. The fact that the fate of the Prime Minister has been linked to His Majesty the Emperor has left a deep impression on the people of the whole country that this incident was purely accidental, and that the responsibility for this incident does not lie with the Prime Minister and the Cabinet.
After seeing these things broadcast on TV, Speaker Morita was in his office in the Capitol, smoking a cigar and muttering to himself leisurely: "Although I don't know who is so bold and reckless to do such a thing, it can be expected that the local people in Dongying will not dare to do this without the help of foreign forces." Ji Pingjun, can you help me contact the people over there in Huaxia and ask if there are any people from the Quartet Conference who have come to Dongying recently. ”
I saw a strong man beside Morita immediately nodded and said, "Yes, I'll do it immediately." With that, he walked out of the office.
When the strong man went out, Morita looked at the bright moon outside the window and said, "What else do you think?" Do you think we should do it? ”
I saw that there were five other people in the office, these five people looked like Morita's subordinates, and after they looked at each other, one of the twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old men said: "Father, Dongying's matter, will the Huaxia Quadripartite Council be so blatantly involved?" I suspect that someone is secretly colluding with some people in Dongying, and it has nothing to do with the Quadripartite Conference. ”
Morita nodded and said: "This is natural, Huaxia is also a bag now, I heard that the most terrible family in Yanshan has already moved, and their own mess in the Quartet Conference can't be cleaned up, where is the energy to meddle in Dongying's affairs." It should have nothing to do with the Quartet. ”
The young man said, "Then shoot!" As long as the forces of Huaxia are not involved, who are we afraid of in the entire Dongying? ”
Morita smiled lightly, "Stinky boy, you are still too tender, such a hairy man, how dare I hand over the family to you." Learn, it's not the time for us to give it our all, at least until I see the whole thing. ”
Others may not have thought that this time it was inevitable that the incident would affect the whole body and alarm the cabinet, but this time it was a family that was more powerful than the cabinet, a huge family that had been hidden behind the scenes since the shogunate era and controlled the lifeblood of the entire Toei country, the Morita clan!
