Chapter 027, the dependence of the Ito family
In R country, when it comes to Kiyoko Ito, most people know that she is a well-known gambler in R country and even the whole world. Although he failed to participate in the Las Vegas World Gambling King Competition in the end, no one will doubt Kiyoko Ito's gambling skills.
However, when it comes to the Ito family, it is not only the world, but also in the current R country, it is not very well-known. However, the low popularity does not mean that the Ito family is weak.
On the contrary, the Ito family is one of the oldest political families in R. His ancestor is Hirofumi Ito, one of the five heroes of Changzhou and one of the nine elders of Meiji.
Hirofumi Ito is the first Prime Minister of R country, the first president of the Privy Council, and the first president of the House of Lords. During his seven-year term, Hirofumi Ito successfully made R a powerful East Asian power in the 19th century.
However, Hirofumi Ito loves women and often goes to the place of fireworks, which has something to do with many geisha. Especially Jiang Liangdai, a famous garden. Jiang Liangdai was once the concubine of Xiyuan Temple, the political elder of R country, and later followed Kino filial piety. Just after the death of Takayoshi Kado, Hirofumi Ito pursued E Ryoyo crazily.
Although Erayo later married Mitsui chaebol's Mitsui Genyou, before that, Erayo gave birth to a son for Ito Hirofumi, named him Ito Saburo.
After the death of Ito Hirofumi, Ito Saburō became a member of the military in the subsequent external expansion of R country. After that, Saburo Ito won the confrontation with Hirobumi Ito, the eldest son of Hirobumi Ito, for the dominance of the Ito family. So far, the Ito family has been rooted in the military and political circles under the leadership of Saburo Ito.
After that, several owners of the Ito family were members of the military and political circles, and even participated in the planning of the famous February 26 mutiny in R country and completely controlled the military headquarters of R country.
Later, R country was defeated, and the United States purged the military and political worlds of R country, and completely replaced Qinmei's political family. Only then did the Ito family go to R country.
However, even if it is weak, the Ito family has some energy in the R national government and army. Because of this, he chose to marry the already weakened Ito family because he wanted to develop the Miyazaki family into a powerful underworld organization like the Yamaguchi group.
Because there is only Kiyoko Ito in the Ito family in this generation, as long as Kiyoko Ito can be turned into the daughter-in-law of the Miyazaki family, the Ito family's relations networks in the government and military will completely fall into the hands of the Miyazaki family.
For Ito Sahei, the current head of the Ito family, if the Ito family can't find a strong family union, then the Ito family will really fade out of the R military and political stage. For the current military and political family of R country, they have been suppressed by the Ito family to varying degrees, so it is good for them not to take the opportunity to fall down, and it is impossible to unite with the Ito family.
Although the Miyazaki family has no foundation in the political circles of R country, the Miyazaki family has considerable strength.
One needs the support of strength, and one wants to reach out to the military and political circles through another's relationship in the military and political circles. Therefore, the marriage between the two families can be said to be a good match, and Kiyoko Ito made a marriage contract when he was five years old.
Originally, there have been no ups and turns in this matter. They just wait for the two families to decide when they will get married after their children grow up.
But Kiyoko Ito's heart is puzzled because she was taken nude photos by Xiao Yun. I am very opposed to getting married immediately. Ito Zuobei spoiled Ito Kiyoko very much. Ito Kiyoko disagreed, and Ito Zuobei did not agree. In this way, Miyazaki has exerted pressure several times, but he has not succeeded.
After being rejected several times, Miyazaki's patience was gone. In addition, Miyazaki Haoyue was lobbying, and Miyazaki decided that this time, no matter what, the wedding date should be given. The Miyazaki family must take control of the existing power and relationship network of the Ito family.
In the magnificent cabin, Ito Zuobei knelt on the tatami, took a sip of kung fu tea brewed by a geisha, looked at Miyazaki sitting opposite, and smiled faintly, "Mr. Miyazaki, I heard some bad rumors on the boat..."
"Oh? What rumors?" Miyazaki pulled his face and leaned slightly. There was a gloomy light in his triangular eyes, just like a blood-eating wolf staring at his prey.
"Some people on board said that this voyage was for the marriage between Qingzi and Haoyue! And he also said that he would hold a wedding for the two on the cruise ship!" Ito Zuo Bingwei smiled, took a sip of kung fu tea, and then said, "These people are too evoking. They say something that our two parties don't know, but they say it, hehe..."
Miyazaki smiled gloomyly and looked up at Ito Zuobei: "Mr. Ito, this is not a rumor. I have decided to hold a wedding with Haoyue and Miss Qingzi on the cruise ship..."
Ito Zuobeiwei was stunned, and then smiled dryly and said, "Mr. Miyazaki is too good at joking!"
Miyazaki stood up, opened the sliding window, looked through the dark night sky through the glass window, and replied faintly, "Mr. Ito, what if I'm not kidding?"
Ito Zuobei's face also sank. He stood up quietly and replied coldly, "Mr. Miyazaki, the Ito family married a daughter. It's too rude for me, the head of the Ito family. I don't know how Mr. Miyazaki made this decision, but I hope Mr. Miyazaki doesn't forget how the Ito family is defeated. Luo is still the ancient family of my big R empire. If you want to force the Ito family to do what they don't want to do, I'm afraid that Mr. Miyazaki also needs to pay some price..."
"Real?" Miyazaki smiled disdainfully: "Then the Miyazaki family wants to see what kind of price it costs to marry a woman from a dilapidated family."
"You..."
In the face of Miyazaki's aggressive posture, Ito Zuobei stood up angrily and left.
"Mr. Ito, if I were you, I would choose to sit down and have a good talk!" Miyazaki turned around, looked at the angry Ito Zuobei, and said lightly, "I know that Mr. Ito must have gone to Mr. Kigawa, so I invited Mr. Kigawa."
Ito Zuo Bingwei's heart was sore that he turned around and looked at Miyazaki.
The 'Kikawa-kun' mentioned in Miyazaki's mouth is the master of Hidekazu Kikawa and Kiyoko Ito, the former world gambling king.
The simple world gambling king doesn't have much energy. However, the identity of the guest of the Yamaguchi Group has made Hidekazu Kikawa have considerable influence.
For a long time, the Ito family has dared to push back and even fight against the Miyazaki family. In addition to the Ito family has its own strength, it is also because the Ito family has the support of Hidekazu Kikawa.
With the support of Hidekazu Kikawa, it is equivalent to the intervention of the Yamaguchi Group. This is a great pressure on the Miyazaki family. After all, the Yamaguchi Group is the strongest underworld organization in R country. It can even affect the election of the prime minister to a certain extent. This is definitely not what a simple underworld organization like the Miyazaki family can fight against a commercial family.
This threat of Miyazaki has made Ito Zuobei very unhappy. He is planning to go to Hidekazu Kikawa to discuss the withdrawal of the marriage contract. Unexpectedly, Miyazaki said that he had found Hidekazu Kigawa.
This makes Ito Zuobei surprised and a little uneasy.
Looking at Miyazaki's self-confidence, what's the change between Hidekigawa and there?
Ito Zuobei took back the leg that stepped out of the cabin, and at this time, Hidekazu Kigawa, wearing a black samurai suit, came outside the cabin.
"Mr. Mukawa..."
Ito Zuo Bingwei respectfully saluted Hidekazu Kigawa.
Although Shukazu Kikawa is 65 years old, he is not old at all. Especially his eagle-like eyes make people dare not look directly.
"Mr. Ito..." Hidekazu Kikawa returned to Ito Zuobei and went straight to the cabin and knelt down.
Hidekazu Kikawa's rude behavior of not paying attention to the owner here made Miyazaki angry. But he didn't dare to lose his temper. Not only did he not dare to lose his temper, but he also personally poured tea for Muchuan Xiuhe. Because he spent a lot of money to make Shukazu Kigawa neutral in the marriage contract between the Miyazaki family and the Ito family. He doesn't want to have any problems halfway.
"Mr. Mukawa... Please come here to tell Mr. Ito about your views on the marriage between Haoyue and Kiyoko."
After pouring tea for Hideo Kigawa, Miyazaki knelt down in the master's seat and stretched out his hand to Ito Zuobei, signaling him to sit down as well.
Ito Zuobei quickly knelt down beside Hidekazu Kikawa, his eyes full of expectation and uneasiness.
The Ito family can't fight against the Miyazaki family without the support of Hidekazu Kigawa!
Hidekazu Kikawa quietly drank two sips of tea, closed his eyes for a while, and looked at Miyazaki's question and said, "Mr. Miyazaki, this is a tea made with early spring snow water on Mount Fuji..."
Miyazaki nodded quickly and replied respectfully, "Yes... Mr. Kikawa deserves to be a master of tea ceremony..."
Shuwa Kikawa smiled, looked at Ito Zuobei, who was worried, and gently patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Ito, you don't look well. Are you sick?"
Ito Zuobei gently wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, took a deep breath, smiled dryly and said, "Mr. Mukawa, Kiyoko, she..."
Shuwa Kikawa suddenly realized, patted his forehead and smiled, "I'm old, and my memory is not very good... This time I'm talking about the marriage between Qingzi and Haoyue, but I only pay attention to the tea ceremony..." At this point, Shuhe Kigawa looked at Miyazaki: "Mr. Miyazaki, Qingzi is my apprentice! She doesn't agree to get married now. Naturally, I don't want others to force her..."
Hearing Hidekakigawa's words, Ito Zuobei's hanging heart was finally relieved, and his face returned to normal, and he looked at Miyazaki confidently.
And Miyazaki Kaka glanced at Ito Zuobei contemptuously, and Asakawa Hide and respectfully saluted, "Yes... Mr. Kigawa said it!"
Hidekazu Kigawa nodded gently, and then turned to Ito Zuobei and said, "Mr. Ito, although I don't want anyone to force Kiyoko to do something she doesn't like, the marriage contract between the two families has been agreed by your two families for a long time. It's unfair to the Miyazaki family to terminate the marriage contract like this!"
The uneasiness in Ito Zuobei's heart rose again. The reason why he dared to make an appointment to come to the cruise ship this time was because Hidekazu Kikawa said that he also wanted to come to the cruise ship, and Hidekazu Kigawa had always supported Kiyoko Ito's decision.
But the situation seems to have changed now.
"Mr. Mukawa, what do you mean?"
Ito Zuobei was a little puzzled in his uneasiness. Since Shuhei Kigawa doesn't want others to force Kiyoko, what does this mean now?
