Chapter 42: The Rift
Kotaro is just a reason, and Orange Juro's purpose is to arouse the concerns of the people in the village about the Chiyo tribe.
The people in the village don't say, 'How is Kotaro?', but 'How is the people of the Chiyo clan'.
Chiyo's character really doesn't have anything to attack, she's not a perfect person, but with her identity, those shortcomings can be ignored.
But the Chiyo tribe is different, and no matter how strong Chiyo is, he can't control people's selfish desires.
The time she was in power was fine, and the people of the tribe would be somewhat restrained.
But after she let go, although Ebizo is also very prestigious, the binding force is far less strong than Chiyo.
In particular, the people in the tribe found that Chiyo really didn't care about the aftermath, as if he had changed people all of a sudden, and some of them were even more arrogant than those of other tribes, as if they wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction they had suppressed over the years.
The people in the village also found that the people of the Chiyo tribe seemed to have completed their assimilation with other tribes in a short period of time.
In the eyes of the Chiyo tribe, it is right for him to become the same as other tribes, and even to suffer.
But in the eyes of the villagers, the first tribe of the village has become like this, and the only person in their hearts who can administer justice to them is gone.
In the eyes of other tribes, the Chiyo tribe is so aggressive all of a sudden, which will also stimulate their sense of crisis, after all, no tribe can deal with the encroachment of Chiyo's interests.
This creates a vicious circle, in which the people of the Chiyo tribe feel that the estrangement between others and themselves has deepened, and then they are dissatisfied, and the others are more worried because of the dissatisfaction of the Chiyo tribe, so they distance themselves from each other, and the cycle repeats.
Although the incident broke out for only one day, the village was not large, and one day was enough time for most people to know about it, and Chiyo was also keenly aware of a hint of conspiracy, but before she could take action, Orange Juro had already asked for an elders' meeting.
"I believe that people like Kotaro are an example of the Chiyo tribe, and most of the people of the Chiyo tribe love the village very much and follow the rules."
The old god of Orange Shiro was there, very calmly, and then the conversation changed: "But many people in the village are worried about this phenomenon now, we are all old people who have grown up with the village for decades, this kind of thing... It shouldn't be staged again~"
Hai Laozang snorted coldly: "Which tribe doesn't have a few mice, and if they are slaughtered, is it possible that Lord Orange Shiro wants to carry out a major reorganization of all the tribes?" ”
"There are a few rats that are fine, but I'm afraid they've become rat nests."
Hai Laozang straightened up, his rickety and aging appearance just now was swept away, he leaned forward slowly, and looked at the other party with cold eyes: "Sour melon, do you know what you're talking about?" ”
Sour melon is the nickname given to him by the older children when Takujuro was a child, saying that he likes to be jealous of what others have, and he has little ability.
And the initiator of this nickname is Ebizo.
It had been years since Takashijuro became an elder, and he hadn't heard the word in years.
"Follow-up, I'm thinking about the village."
Orange Juro didn't dare to be tough with Chiyo, but he didn't lie to Ebizo.
You're a brother without your sister!
When Lao Tzu fought bravely on the battlefield, you were behind your sister;
When Lao Tzu infiltrated Yanyin Village for the village and assassinated the high-rises, you were behind your sister;
Lao Tzu is proficient in all kinds of ninjutsu, and when his physical skills are the best in Shayin Village, you are still behind your sister, what qualifications do you have to shout at me?!
The two went toe-to-toe, and the rest were silent, while everyone waited for Chiyo to break the deadlock.
But Chiyo's eyes lowered and she didn't make a sound.
The home in her eyes is everyone and her own small home.
Everyone is a single-handedly built village, the small family is their own children and brothers, as for the tribe... There are people who are close by blood, and she doesn't even know the names.
She grew up watching Orange Juro, and his thoughts couldn't be hidden from him at all, but because she understood, she chose not to speak.
Once he intervenes, he will definitely stimulate Orange Juro, who was backstabbed by his allies, and now Chiyo has a stable three seats in the Council of Elders, the Wind Shadow faction has four seats, and the Orange Juro faction has four seats, but because of the problem of material distribution, a rift has been carved within the Orange Juro faction, and Orange Juro is not sure that his allies will support his actions without hesitation.
At this time, once the contradiction between the two clans is made public, Orange Juro has only two choices, forbearance and letting go.
Considering that the other party's age is likely to choose the latter, it will be a complete disaster for Shayin Village.
"Calm down, the top priority is to deal with this incident first."
Luo Sha sat at the bottom of the round table and opened his mouth to ease the atmosphere, but it was clear that some people did not appreciate it.
"Luo Sha, this is a matter for the elders, and there are some things to say when you are really qualified to sit at this table."
Luo Sha didn't expect Orange Juro to open his mouth to choke himself, and his face was embarrassed, as if he had been bitten by a mad dog.
At this moment, Hoshino Maki, who had been standing behind Chiyo, came to Chiyo's side, covered his mouth with one hand, and whispered in Chiyo's ear.
Chiyo frowned after hearing this, and did not speak.
The conference hall was large, but there were very few people, and Hoshino Maki's actions were naturally seen clearly by everyone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since this has happened, we can only find a way to make amends. Kotaro's actions cannot be forgiven, and the Chiyo clan will not allow such a thing to happen. ”
Orange Juro frowned and just wanted to say something, when he heard the other party say: "But after all, the Chiyo clan has the fault of teaching unfavorably, and before the internal self-purge, the village's finances are not as good as being taken over by the clan of Elder Tower and Elder Baiqi, and at the same time, from today onwards, the elders will send people to form a law enforcement team to supervise the implementation of the order of the Council of Elders, what do the elders think?" ”
There was no response for a while.
The people who meddled in the village's finances became the Wind Shadow Sect and the Orange Shiro Faction, and the formation of the law enforcement team was actually a constraint on the people under the big clan, increasing the voice of the Elders in disguise.
This is undoubtedly a weakening of the Chiyo clan.
In the past, the people of the major tribes were only responsible for their own tribes, and once there was a conflict between the people of the major tribes and the orders of the Council of Elders, things would often turn into a tear, especially the people of the Chiyo tribe, who often only listened to the Chiyo and did not listen to the Council of Elders.
Now the major families have sent people to form law enforcement teams, and anyone who resists will be the enemy of the entire Council of Elders.
Even the people of the Chiyo clan can't bear it.
Losing financial power and being constrained by the Council of Elders, even Orange Juro felt that Chiyo would not agree.
But Chiyo just closed his eyes and kept his mind as if he hadn't heard.
"Sister."
"It's called Elder Chiyo here."
Chiyo opened her eyes, looked at Ebizo, crossed everyone's faces again, and slowly stood up.
"Let's do it."
After speaking, she picked up the hat on the table and left slowly.
Hoshino Maki wanted to keep up with the support, but his hand was opened by the other party.
Behind her stiff back, the eyes of the elders watching this scene kept meeting.
