After some struggle, Chen Hongjian finally agreed to Uesugi Yue's request and recognized Uesugi as his godfather.

There were no witnesses, and no formal ceremonies were held, so Chen Hongjian simply offered a cup of sake to Uesugi and bowed, and the relationship between the two was established.

Emotionally speaking, he really wants to help the Yuan family brothers and Eri Yi, of course, including this old man who is now his godfather, and he already has Xia Mi, so naturally he won't have anything wrong with Eri Yi.

In terms of interests, there is a shadow emperor and a half-emperor, and two "ghosts" (ghosts at the blood level) as his relatives, and the power behind him is becoming stronger and stronger, and the possibility of surviving from Odin and saving Xia Mi in the future has greatly increased.

"Dad, have you ever thought about returning to the Eight Snake Family?"

Well, Chen Hongchuan, he didn't call Uesugi Yue his father, he always felt weird, and he couldn't call it.

Uesugi glanced at Chen Hongji, and said in his heart, Lao Tzu still can't see your little Jiujiu?

After listening to Chen Hongji's account of the series of events that happened after he came to Japan and about Herzog serving as the leader of the Eight Snake Clans and the Fierce Oni Clan, Uesugi Yue, the former shadow emperor, sniffed out the conspiracy and determined that the other party was coveting the holy remains of the White King.

As for the purpose of Chen Hongjian and Uesugi Yue's talk, it is nothing more than hoping that he will enter the game and disturb this troubled water.

"Nope. Anyway, I, the emperor who has disgraced the family, will not get the support of the other heads of the family when I go back. ”

Chen Hong shook his head, he knew that Uesugi was deceiving himself, he just didn't want to re-ascend to the throne.

After all, the Eight Snake Qi families are an underworld family, and they pay attention to whether they are gentle and means, but strength!

Tachibana Masamune's humble bloodline was not enough to convince the public, but the Eight Families of Snake Qi really needed a qualified leader to stand up and end the civil strife at that time, not to mention that Tachibana Masamune brought back the Emperor and the ultimate weapon of the Eight Families of Snake Nationality, and he, the eldest patriarch, could be regarded as the acting parent before Gen Zhisheng grew up, which was just used for transition.

Once the last movie king, the strongest patriarch in the history of the Eight Snake Families, returns, who will object?

At that time, Genji's son will not be biased towards Tachibana Masamune, so he can only choose to abstain.

The head of the Miyamoto family is obsessed with scientific research, and he has always disliked to participate in the family affairs of the Snake Eight family, so he should have chosen to abstain.

And Inuyama He and Wind Demon Kotaro will also be Uesugi Etsu's most solid supporters (dun third tone), after all, they are Uesugi Etsu's retainers, and they are subordinates like Crow, Yaksha and Sakura around Gen Zhisheng, rather than simply the head of the family who is subordinate to the head of the family.

At that time, Uesugi became the head of the Uesugi family again, and he also had one vote, so he occupied three votes at a time.

The affair between the head of the Sakurai family and Kotaro Kazema...... As long as Wind Demon Kotaro is gone, she will at least not support Tachibana Masamune.

Then, even if Tachibana Masamune has two votes as the head of the family, and Ryoma Koichiro also supports him, it will be a draw at most. And Ryoma Genichiro, as the head of the Ryoma family, naturally saw such a situation, and it was impossible for him to support Tachibana Masamune.

In this way, Uesugi regained the throne of the eldest family, and it was simply a hand-to-hand capture!

However, it is a little difficult to persuade Uesugi to return to the Snake Eight Family. Chen Hong gradually looked at the contemplative Uesugi Etsu, he knew that Uesugi Etsu had no desire for power, and he was tired of these dirty struggles.

"Daddy, do you still want Yuan Zhisheng to be kept in the dark by that guy? Do you want to continue to watch Eri being used as a weapon? Chen Hong gradually paused, looked at the unmoved Uesugi Yue, and decided to take a dose of fierce medicine, "I know, Dad, you hate power because of your mother, because your mother died because of the family, but now you want your children to die because of the family?" ”

Uesugi squinted slightly, grabbed Chen Hongjian by the collar, and lifted him up.

"Boy, do you think I don't dare beat you?"

Uesugi Yue's eyes were a little dangerous, his mother's matter was the pain of his life, he could mention it himself, but he didn't allow others to mention it, even if this kid was now his godson.

Chen Hongjian did not resist and let Uesugi Yue lift him.

"Dad, you are running away, you are afraid that you will make mistakes again, you are cowardly and cowardly!"

Uesugi Etsu's scar was ruthlessly revealed, yes, he was afraid.

He could not forget the vicious curse his mother had placed on him before she died.

He didn't want to get involved in power again, he didn't want to get involved in the power that killed his mother again.

"Daddy, you say, does your mother want you to see her grandchildren in danger like that? If she were in heaven and saw her son become emperor again in order to save her grandchildren, would she be proud of you or curse you?

Dad, people make mistakes, and in the face of mistakes, the right choice should not be to escape, but to face it, to make up for their mistakes, to correct their mistakes!

Maybe you were a complete bastard when you sat on the throne of the emperor in the first half of your life, and you were mediocre for decades in the second half of your life, but for the sake of your mother's grandchildren and granddaughters, shouldn't you stand up like a real emperor and stand up for them......

You have already lost your mother because of a mistake, and you should no longer lose a mother to lose her grandchildren because of a mistake! ”

Thump.

Uesugi let go of the hand that was grabbing Chen Hong's collar and let him throw it on the ground at will.

In his eyes, a dark golden light flowed.

For so many years, he has been praying in the Catholic church of the community, praying for the blessing of his mother and the innocent people who died in the war, hoping that he will be forgiven, but over the years, in the dead of night, he always feels the loneliness of having no children and no daughters, his mother's curse seems to have been fulfilled, he seems to hear the ridicule from his mother, and he has been living in pain for the rest of his life.

That's why he often haunts various izakaya at night and numbs himself with alcohol.

But...... It doesn't seem to be of any use.

The mother never forgave the child who had made a mistake, and cursed him in her dreams every night.

Don't...... Is it really because I know my mistakes, admit them, but don't try to correct my mistakes?

"Hahahaha......"

Uesugi suddenly burst out laughing, "It's been more than sixty years, and I've finally understood, mother. You curse the family that led me to Hell and become the devil, not your child! ”

Laughing and laughing, tears dripping from Uesugi's dark golden eyes.

It had been more than sixty years since he finally understood, under the guidance of a child who was less than twenty years old, the true object of his mother's curse.

I have really lived in vain all my life, and I can't see that a junior is transparent.

Uesugi patted Chen Hongjian on the shoulder, and the eyes that looked at him softened.

If before, he recognized Chen Hongjian as his godson, just to cut off the possibility of him and Eriyi, then now, he really treats Chen Hongjian as his own family.

"Stinky boy, let's go, take me to the current headquarters of the Eight Snakes."

As Uesugi and Chen Hong walked down the deserted food street, he couldn't help but glance back at the roof that had been with him for decades.

This roof trolley has long been old, like a portrayal of his malaise in the second half of his life, but now, let this old roof trolley accompany this old street.

"Snake Qi Hachi, I'm back from Uesugioshi!"
