The four of them didn't expect their father Sanjo Masamune to suddenly mention this matter, and deliberately said that they would consider candidates. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoExcept for the second son Sanjo Langura, who has a natural personality, in fact, it makes sense for Sanjo Masamune to choose any of them.

Sanjo Terumasa made it clear that he didn't accept it, so there were only two candidates, Xiucheng and Kii.

Kii somewhat understood why her biological mother, Mieko, stayed aside without saying a word just now, I'm afraid that Mieko is looking forward to her child becoming the heir, and she doesn't want to affect the choice of heir, she believes that Kii is very likely.

"It stands to reason that the eldest brother Xiucheng inherits the family, and the eldest brother is fully capable." Kii had never thought about inheriting the family, so it wouldn't be a special idea to let her join the discussion now. She has all the money she wants, and it has reached a level that ordinary people can't reach, and it's really impossible for her to look at it with just a family inheritance.

As Kii expected, her biological mother, Mieko, immediately changed her face, but she was able to endure it without speaking.

Xiucheng interrupted Kii's words, he had already asked his wife and children to go to the next door to eat first. If the theme of the family reunion changes from congratulating Kii on his achievements to the question of family succession, then he will not leave his family members who will affect his judgment on the sidelines. This is exactly the same as his father Masamune, except that Masamune used a verbal agreement to let Mieko obediently act as the background.

"It is true that I am qualified as a candidate, but that does not prevent you from becoming the successor. Because you can also succeed you, whether it is Langpu or Huizheng. Don't you even think about it? ”

Xiucheng didn't get his two younger brothers to change their minds, but I'm afraid he didn't intend to encourage them to inherit in the first place. He is different from others, he is the eldest son, he pays attention to personal status and image, and the eldest son is not qualified to inherit the family, which will obviously have a great adverse effect on him.

"Kii, don't you really want to inherit the family?"

Sanjo Masamune's second inquiry made Kii think for a while, she still couldn't imagine what would happen to her inheritance of the family, so she shook her head again.

"Let the eldest brother do this kind of thing. I'm certainly not up to the task, and I can't juggle both. Leading the IJN Combined Fleet to dominate the Pacific Ocean is my only goal at the moment, and I can no longer be distracted from managing other affairs. ”

Unlike Sanjo Hidenari's ambiguous statement, although Kii did not say that she did not want to be the heir, in her judgment, the heir is not worth the discussion of who should be, and it seems insignificant compared to the heavy responsibility she is currently facing.

Sanjo Masamune also didn't expect that the choice of the heir of the family would meet the disgust of his children, all because they were too good, so they didn't look down on the position of the heir. Sanjo Xiucheng is more willing to be forced by external pressure, he is a businessman, and the business that can't make money needs to be considered twice, but if he doesn't do it, he will inevitably lose money, and he will definitely try to win it first, so as not to jeopardize his career.

"I know, although you are all excellent talents, after I know your attitude, I don't want to transfer the family to you now. I'll write my heirs in my will and finish it when I'm dead. ”

While Sanjo Masamune was not reconciled, he must also admit that each of his four children was worthy of his pride, and he allowed his four children to despise the family inheritance. Tradition is tradition, identity is identity, Sanjo Masamune has no extra expectations, at least no regrets in the requirements for his four children.

After talking about topics that everyone didn't like to hear, we were finally able to sit down and have a formal meal together. Kii noticed that his biological mother was staring at Sanjo Xiucheng with resentful eyes,

Until everyone finished eating, Kii's biological mother didn't say a word. While Kii was disgusted with his biological mother, he didn't dare to retaliate excessively, after all, the other party gave birth to him, and according to universal values, filial piety to his parents is his obligation. Kii's three older brothers can use each other as stepmothers to avoid this kind of moral questioning, but Kii can't, even if he is a false fifth daughter, he still says that he is a child born to Mieko.

Everyone left their seats one by one, until only Kii and her parents were left sitting in the hall.

"Everyone else has left, and now it's just the three of us here." Sanjo Masamune took a long breath and suddenly apologized to Kii. "Kii, I am at least half responsible for your tragedy. I didn't realize it in the past, but I always thought that I, as a father, can be a role model for several of you, both at home and away, and help you develop better. As a result, the love for you is neglected. ”

It was the first time in her life that Kii had heard her father apologize to her, and she had never fantasized about or asked for such favors. "I can't hold a grudge against you, and maybe you're responsible, but resentment is not a matter of rational consideration. If you want to say resentment, I want to hate my mother even more to you and me! ”

Mieko has also heard a lot of her own children's curses, and for the first time in her life, she has lost the posture of being slapped on the left side of her face and coming up with her right cheek in front of Kii. "Kii, I'll be honest with you, I hate this family, and I don't have any feelings for your father, but I had to marry into the Sanjo family for the sake of my original family. Do you hate me? I hate you by the way! Do you know? You are like a lock, sealing the possibility of my divorce, I didn't give birth to you, taking advantage of the situation of my mother's family to improve, I plan to divorce and escape. So like you said, there are some things that can't be considered rationally, and I don't expect you to understand me, so I also want you to ask you not to interfere with my willful revenge. ”

After listening to his biological mother's story, Kii didn't understand why his father still kept Mieko, two people who had no feelings could form a family and lived together for nearly 30 years.

"It's normal that you don't understand, just like your mother was forced to join our Sanjo family for the sake of her family, I also have to create a family that seems impeccable to the outside world in order for the Sanjo family to prosper. I had waited for an opportunity to end this tragic marriage, but because of your birth, I have no reason to divorce. It's hard to imagine, right? If you rely too much on the outside world, you will have to play the role that outsiders envision, like me and your mother. "Before Sanjo Masamune became a lieutenant general, he always had to look at other people's faces and do things, and the Sanjo family at that time did not develop at the same time in the business, politics, and military circles as it is today.

"But for the sake of your family, you have made me a victim! If no miracle happens, I will only be buried as a good ship design engineer. It doesn't make a difference to the family, does it? Including today's heir selection, you don't have to play a play at all and wait for me to make a statement. Anyway, you already know that the second brother Langpu and the third brother Hui Zheng are not interested in inheriting the family, so they can only entrust the family to the eldest brother Xiucheng to inherit. ”

Kii is no longer the silly and sweet child of the past, she already has the ability to deal with others.

In the face of Kii's questioning, Sanjo Masamune nodded and admitted, "I owe you too much, so I plan to let you decide whether to inherit the family or not." ”

"I don't want it! It is precisely because of this universal concept that a general's son must be a general that I fell into tragedy. I will only hate it, or let Big Brother Xiucheng inherit the helm, he can always come up with some new ideas. I look forward to him changing the family. ”

"If only it could be like that." Kii's biological mother, Mieko, muttered quietly. "If you don't have to, I have nothing to say. I have hidden enough gold and silver jewelry in China SH. When Xiucheng inherits the family one day, I will leave immediately, and I don't need you to raise me. Kii, Mom, I'm a person who hates myself too, but I can't help it, I also want to meet a sweet love, and the two will be together for life. The truth is that I don't have a choice, and now you have power and money beyond the ordinary, so let yourself go and do what you want. ”

Mieko didn't cry as much as she used to, she behaved more calmly than her husband Sanjo Masamune. "What I've said in the past, you're a lie. Remember, it's rare for me to tell the truth - I'm glad to see you achieve your dreams step by step. ”

“…… I hate people like you, as your child, Sanjo Kirin, who had no talent at the beginning, is destined to become a tragedy. You're not apologizing to me at all, you're just taking pity on me. "Kii understands everything, her father constantly suppresses the childhood growth of Sanjo Kirin with a cold image, and her mother keeps creating a vulgar image to make Sanjo Kirin feel inferior, all for themselves!

As Kii said, neither of them was really willing to deny their crimes, they were just crying to Kii about their difficult choices and trying to ease their guilt, and that's it. There is still no love, especially her biological mother, Emiko, who has never loved Kii until now.

"You resent me and Mieko. If you can, you can start a different family by yourself to make up for Sanjo Kirin's regrets. Among the four children, only Kii, your current status is the first level in the whole RB, and no one can force you to do what you don't want to do. "Sanjo Masamune is a father who loves all his children, and he didn't have the time or opportunity to express it in the past, but now he tells Kii about his wishes." So I considered letting you inherit the family, but since you don't look down on the Sanjo family at all, I have nothing to say. ”

"Enough, enough! I don't want to see your sincere side anymore, it's torture for me. Kii longed to travel back more than a decade and use the power he has now to allow his parents to live separately in the way they want. But this can't be, so Kii must share it with resentment among everyone in the family. Otherwise, who will be responsible for the death of Sanjo Kirin?

Kii left the hall, she already knew enough about the family, and there was no longer extravagant hope and attachment. At this point, one of her regrets was eliminated, although the result was meaningless.
