Qianjuzhu's face changed slightly and he looked at the minister in front of him, "What do you mean by the daimyo?" ”

"Literally!" The minister did not weaken his tone just because he was a strong man in front of him, he was already an old man in his forties, and he had already lived enough in this world.

The Thousand Hands Pillar's face turned red suddenly, and his fists clenched, "The Fire Nation plans to give up Konoha?" Do you know what will happen next if the daimyo do this? ”

"Of course, the Daimyo-sama knows!" The minister was a little dissatisfied with the tone of the Thousand Hands Pillar, and frowned, "Konoha and Vortex Hidden Village, you can only choose one!" ”

"If you aid the Uzumaki Clan in this war, then the Fire Nation will not provide you Konoha with any logistical resources!"

These words made Qianshou Zhuma's face very ugly, and the other party's move really hit him on the seven inches.

In the first two years of Konoha's construction, neither material reserves nor war potential were far from being able to support a large-scale war.

And this time the Land of Thunder declared war on the Land of the Vortex, if the Land of Fire did not provide logistical subsidies, then the reserves that Konoha had only developed for two years were not qualified to start a war at all.

Because, this war will directly drag Konoha down, not to mention development, it is possible to dissolve in situ.

Looking at the ugly face of the Thousand Hand Pillars, the minister's face softened, "If you choose not to aid the Vortex Clan, then the Fire Nation will not reduce the supply of resources by half a cent, and it is even possible that it will be increased by more than half percent!" ”

The other party's words made the heart of the Thousand Hands Pillar sink again and again, and the corner of his eye glanced at the three elders sitting on the left and right, and their eyes obviously showed a wavering look.

Such a big temptation is difficult for ordinary people to refuse, and even among the thousand hands of the pillars, there is a heartbeat after hearing it.

There is no way, the current Konoha is poor in resources, and under the rapid development, Konoha has been exposed for a long time about the shortage of resources.

If the resources supplied by the Fire Nation increase again, then you can imagine how rapid Konoha will develop.

These three elders were all selected from the various clans of Konoha and all had strong big-picture thinking.

Naturally, they could clearly distinguish which option would allow them to gain more from Konoha.

Reason made them choose the second option, but their loyalty to the Thousand Hands Pillar made it impossible for them to ignore the first option.

Therefore, they couldn't make a choice, so they could only set their sights on the Thousand Hands Pillar.

They didn't know that their gaze didn't actually help the Thousand Hands Pillars, but only made it more difficult to make a choice between the Thousand Hands Pillars.

"And! It is very clear from the treaty that you cannot leave the village. When the minister's voice was difficult to choose between the Thousand Hands Pillar, he added another big weight to him.

This big weight made his mood even heavier, and he completely sank to the bottom.

Not being able to leave the village meant that Senju Tsuruma resigned from the Hokage, and the possibility of going out alone to help the Uzumaki clan was also blocked.

The palms of the thousand hands supported his forehead, and he looked at the table in a daze.

"May I ask, why did the Fire Nation intervene in the war between Cloud Hidden Village and Vortex Hidden Village?" The voice of the Thousand Hands Pillar came suddenly, but no one felt abrupt.

The minister smiled lightly, "If I don't come, don't you plan to intervene?" Anyway, you Konoha have already made up your mind to intervene in this war! Does it matter if we don't intervene? ”

"That's not what I want!" The hand between the Thousand Hands Pillar slammed into the wooden table, and cracks in the spider web appeared where he had fallen.

When the minister saw this scene, his eyelids jumped, and he didn't dare to sneer anymore, so he quickly replied: "Where you are sleeping, how can you allow others to sleep soundly!" ”

"But the country of vortex has no ambitions to develop outward!"

"That's just for now, can you guarantee that they'll think the same way in the future?" The minister smiled disdainfully, and the Hokage in front of him was too naïve.

This is the world of adults, and the innocence of children should not be brought to this filthy world, okay? The minister scoffed in his heart.

The expression of the Thousand Hands Pillar froze, it was not that he didn't understand the Tao, but he was not able to accept this sudden news.

Slowly, he fell silent, as silent as before.

The atmosphere at the scene was instantly quiet, and no one knew what kind of choice the Thousand Hands Pillar would make, and everyone present was very wise not to disturb him.

After a long time, Thousand Hands Pillar finally came back to his senses from his stunned stupor, and stood up with his hands on the table, "Give me an afternoon!" ”

The minister narrowed his eyes, although he really wanted Senju to give him an answer now, but considering that this involved Senju Juma's wife, Uzumaki Mito.

So he thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes!" Tonight at the latest, please make sure the Hokage gives me an answer! ”

"Good!" The Thousand Hands Pillar agreed, turned around and walked towards the door.

He had just opened the door and was about to go out, when the minister's voice suddenly came, "By the way, the person who met the daimyo with you that day, during this time, you can't leave Konoha without permission, otherwise our treaty will be null and void!" ”

The hands between the pillars of a thousand hands slammed, and a huge force poured out, and the handle of the door shattered into sawdust all over the ground with a clattering sound.

Everyone present was shocked, especially the minister who spoke, and the cold sweat on his forehead fell like he didn't want money.

He is indeed not afraid of death, but sometimes death is not the most terrible!

Fortunately, there was no chaos between the Thousand Hands Pillar, it seemed that because of the minister's words, the impact on him was a little great, so he couldn't control his strength for a while.

The Thousand Hands Pillar did not speak, nodded lightly, and strode out of the conference room in the direction of home.

At this moment, all the elders did not blame him for leaving his post without authorization during his tenure in the Hokage, and they all sighed very sympathetically.

With such a dilemma, any one of them may not be able to make a choice.

Back at home, Uzumaki Mito was happily playing with Xiao Lingyin with a smile on his face.

The two-year-old Thousand Hands Ling Yin can already jump and run around, and sometimes she can even pop out a few babbling sounds, similar to her parents and the like, which almost didn't make the Thousand Hands Pillar couple excited.

Sometimes, when Lin Hong takes her, she will also come up with a few words, which also makes Lin Hong laugh very happily.

Now Qianshou Lingyin is very happy with her mother, running all over the yard, like a carefree happy little bee.

Seeing this scene, the footsteps between the Thousand Hands Pillar paused, and his expression rarely showed panicked emotions.

His hand was raised, as if he wanted to reach out and grasp the beauty that belonged to him in front of him.

But as soon as his hand was stretched out a little, he jerked it back again, for he saw that there were many sawdust on his hands, very dirty, very dirty.

It was sawdust from the conference room, but somehow, he felt that these sawdust were so disobedient in front of the beautiful scene in front of him, that he wanted to wash them clean.

So, he rarely used ninjutsu other than Mu Dun, and a water shot rushed to his hand, and all the sawdust was gone, but he still felt that it was not clean.

In the end, his hands were very clean, but he still washed them several times.

"Between the columns?" A gentle and gentle voice suddenly sounded, causing the movements of the Thousand Hands Pillar to pause, and he turned to look at the person who spoke, Uzumaki Mito.

"Baba! Baba! As soon as he saw it, his eyes met the smile of a little angel, and her smile was so innocent and beautiful.

The giggling little angel, who was overjoyed to see her father at the sight of her, stretched out two small hands and kept gesturing in the direction of the Thousand Hands Pillar, obviously wanting to hug.

But she didn't wait for her father's arms, but was directly held down by her mother.

"Pillars, why did you come back suddenly? Aren't you at work? Uzumaki Mito pressed Xiao Lingyin's mischievous little hand and looked at the Thousand Hands Pillar suspiciously.

The corners of the Thousand Hands Pillar's mouth twitched slightly, revealing an ugly smile, "Ah!!, something's wrong, so I'm going to come back!" ”

"What's wrong? Did you forget something? Uzumaki Mito said, then turned around and walked into the house, "You, you always have a bad memory, and I don't know why you are so forgetful when you are young!" ”

"Ahaha!!" Listening to Uzumaki Mito's complaining words, his heart became even more uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only scratch his head and laugh, "Is that so?" I'm still young! ”

Uzumaki Mito, who was walking in front, turned his head and gave him a white look, his face was slightly red, "You'll be poor!" ”

With that, the two walked into the house together.

Then, as he spoke, the mood of the Thousand Hands Pillar gradually recovered.

As usual, he and Uzumaki Mito chatted together, chatting about the interesting things of life in recent years, and chatting so plainly, but both of them felt very happy.

Uzumaki Mito didn't care about why Senju Tsuruma suddenly skipped work and came back, since her husband suddenly wanted to talk to her, she naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse.

The night gradually darkened, and the shadows in the eyes of the Thousand Hands Pillar became more and more, and even the lights in the house could not completely dispel the gloom in his eyes.

Uzumaki Mito was very happy to be accompanied by Senjuzuma this afternoon, and was now happily cooking in the kitchen, and from time to time there would be some humming sounds from inside.

Xiao Lingyin was held by the Thousand Hands Pillars, and she didn't know what was going on, she was still babbling and singing, but gradually her voice became quieter, staring at her father's face, looking at it non-stop, as if a flower had grown on the face of the Thousand Hands Pillars.

Yes, a flower, a small tear, did grow on the face of the Thousand Hands Pillar.

People always have to grow up, but the growth between the thousand hands and pillars is a little later than ordinary people, and at the same time, it is also more cruel.

At a young age, he is powerful, has a beautiful wife, and is cute as a child, it can be said that he has gathered all the conditions that all men dream of.

It stands to reason that he should be having a good time.

Originally, he thought so, too.

But in fact, he was not really happy.

Xiao Lingyin's gaze seemed to have a powerful killing power, causing the tears that appeared on the face of the Thousand Hands Pillar to flow quickly, as if they had never appeared before.

"Yikes! Wow! Qianshou Lingyin's little head tilted, as if he couldn't believe how the flower in Baba's eyes could wither so quickly.

After about half an hour, Uzumaki Mito hummed a little song and brought out a lot of dishes from the kitchen, and the fragrant appearance was obviously specially prepared by her.

"Between the columns! It's time to eat! Uzumaki Mito put down the last plate, reached out and grabbed the little hand of the thousand hands of Ling Yin, teased her, and said, "And you! Xiao Lingyin! ”

She learned this soft and cute name from Lin Hong, because she thought it was nice and easy to remember.

"Well, good!" Senju Tsuruma smiled reluctantly, in fact, he was in a very bad mood all afternoon, but in front of Uzumaki Mito, he didn't show anything.

He was waiting, he was waiting for a result, which needed to be obtained from the woman he loved, and then he would go back to the messenger from the Fire Country.

As the night deepened, there were bursts of warm conversations about everyday life coming from the house among the Thousand Hands Pillars.

Suddenly, in this warm state of life, the two heard a sound of breaking wind outside the door.

The two men who were talking closed their mouths almost at the same time and turned their heads to look out the door.

Uzumaki Mito even protected the Thousand Hands Ling Yin behind him for the first time, and looked out of the door vigilantly.

Here it comes! The heart of the thousand hands moved, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth showed a touch of bitterness.

What would she choose?

"Young Patriarch! Uzumaki-sama Ashina, I have an urgent letter for you! Outside the door, a man's voice sounded.

Hearing his father's name, Uzumaki Mito looked at the Thousand Hands Pillar, and then said to the door, "You come in!" ”

The door was quickly pushed open, and a young ninja of the Uzumaki clan pushed the door open, placed a letter in front of Uzumaki Mito, and quickly retreated, leading the door with him, and landed on one knee outside the door, waiting for Uzumaki Mito to reply.

Uzumaki Mito picked up the envelope suspiciously, and because she was so focused on the envelope, she didn't notice the complicated eyes in the Thousand Hands Pillar.

Unwrapping the envelope, Uzumaki Mito took out the letter and read it.

Soon, her eyes widened, and her face showed a look of surprise, and when she saw the end, she couldn't help but cover her mouth, her face full of disbelief.
