Chapter 97: Public opinion is like water, it can carry a boat but can also capsize it

"........"

All kinds of rumors were flying everywhere the next day. They couldn't be stopped and became a hot topic for people in Daming Prefecture.

Strangely enough, Uchiha was picked out directly.

"Yan, tell me, did you do this?"

I wanted to deal with it calmly and wait until we got back to the village.

The result is good. Now it's spreading all over the world. Tsunade can already imagine what will happen when the news gets back to Konoha.

A series of rumors seemed to be directed at the Third Hokage.

"It has nothing to do with the Uchiha. Princess Tsunade has time to come to me. Why not ask the Daimyo to see if it's the Daimyo who did it."

Rumors were flying that the Uchiha had been picked off, which was good for the Uchiha.

Unfortunately, Yan would not do such a thing.

This matter has nothing to do with Uchiha. In fact, Yan was a little stunned when he heard the news.

Who is this person? He dislikes Asuma and the Third Hokage so much and seems to want to make a big deal out of this.

After thinking about it carefully, Yan felt that the source was the daimyo palace.

Yan absolutely didn't believe that the news could spread everywhere overnight without being arranged by the royal palace of Daming Prefecture.

In Daming Prefecture, only they can do it.

"Don't look at me like that. I, Uchiha Yan, am responsible for my actions. If this matter gets out of hand, it won't be good for me or the Uchiha.

Besides, with just the Uchiha group, if they were to spread the news randomly, would it be possible for it to spread to this extent overnight?"

Seeing that Tsunade didn't believe him, Yan spread his hands to show that he was innocent and the Uchiha was also innocent.

"I understand. I will go see the Daimyo. During this time, you Uchiha should calm down. Never, ever let such incidents happen again."

Tsunade was well aware that the Uchiha wanted revenge on Asuma's companions.

But she couldn't persuade Fu Yan.

Yan Ye would never listen to her about this matter.

The Uchiha people were all filled with rage, just waiting to return to Konoha and find trouble with these bastards.

Let them stop?

There are no doors.

"Lady Tsunade, this has nothing to do with the Uchiha, right?"

Shizune came forward.

"It should have nothing to do with them."

Tsunade said with a serious expression: “Hiko is right, even though Asuma caused trouble and the Uchiha will retaliate, these things are Konoha’s own internal conflicts and cannot involve the Daimyo Mansion.

The fact that the news could be spread like this must be related to the Daming Prefecture."

"So...should we send someone to investigate?"

"What are you investigating? Go and treat patients and make money. I'm going to the palace."

survey?

Someone investigating Daimyo in Daimyo Prefecture?

Do you have nothing to do?

Although the people of the daimyo are all small-time noobs, this kind of thing will become unpleasant once Konoha sends people to investigate.

Tsunade would never do such a thankless task.

If the investigation is accidentally led to a famous person and the famous person notices, then fun will ensue.

Who knows what will happen!

It is even possible that it will evolve into Konoha monitoring and investigating the daimyo.

Even though she knew it would be a wasted trip, Tsunade had to make this trip.

As expected, in response to Tsunade's questions, the daimyo was clueless and looked shocked.

"what?"

"Is there such a thing?"

"This is totally wrong. Asuma lacks discipline."

"........"

Well, it’s useless to ask.

Daimyoji is pretending to be stupid, but it's a pity that his acting skills are poor.

It was definitely the daimyo's good deed.

As for why she did this, Tsunade couldn't explain it, and she didn't intend to get to the bottom of it.

If we ask further, wouldn't it be Tsunade who suspected that it was the Daimyo who did it?

What if the big name gets angry and does something weird...

Tsunade didn't want to see this kind of accident, so it would be better to let the Third Hokage deal with this matter.

I didn't want to report it originally, but now I have no choice but to report it.

After leaving the palace, Tsunade immediately sent someone to pass the news back to the village, reminding the Third Hokage to be mentally prepared. Your son assisted the Daimyo and gave you a big surprise.

The Third Hokage's reaction might be a bit too much. If compared with Asuma, Tsunade feels that her teacher has a stronger ability to withstand it.

After all, he was a man who had experienced all kinds of ups and downs. He was not as embarrassed as Asuma, who fainted from anger.

The mental quality is quite poor.

These past few days, the Third Hokage ate well, slept well, and was more energetic in handling government affairs.

When the scroll sent by Tsunade was brought to the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage thought that the Daimyo had sent some good news.

When he opened the scroll and took a few glances at it, his head felt as if it had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, and it became a mess.

In the scroll, Tsunade elaborated on the incident of Asuma looking for trouble, and also talked about Yan's action.

After a brief summary, basically everything that should be said has been covered.

"how so!!!"

The Third Hokage jumped up anxiously, rubbed his eyes hard, fearing that he was dazzled, and then picked up the scroll and read it again.

"hateful!!!"

After reading it carefully several times, the Third Hokage angrily threw the scroll on the table. His mood had just improved for a few days, but trouble came again.

This trouble was caused by his son Asuma, and then the daimyo came to assist.

Why did the daimyo do this?

Aren’t the negotiations between the village and Daming Prefecture over?

Are you still targeting Konoha?

Compared to the Daimyo's great assists, Asuma's provocation and then getting beaten up was nothing, and the Third Hokage didn't take it seriously at all.

He knew clearly what kind of person his son was. Even if Yan went a little too far, acted a little cruelly, spoke a little harshly, and slandered the examiner in the process.

These are nothing.

The most serious thing about this matter is the daimyo's divine assist.

This would give people the misunderstanding that Sarutobi Hiruzen deliberately indulged his son, causing his son to become a playboy, doing all kinds of nonsense and making trouble.

Don't underestimate this kind of thing. Once the news spreads, it will cause a lot of misunderstanding.

It doesn’t matter if it’s people outside, at most they can just treat it as a joke, a big topic after dinner.

But once the villagers of Konoha get serious, it will be real trouble.

This matter cannot be left unchecked.

"Go inform the two advisory elders and the honorary elders and ask them to come to the Hokage's office."

The Third Hokage knew the horror of public opinion. Although he was very good at using it to achieve his own goals, once the thing he used turned against him, there would be a problem.

In the early days of Konoha, in order to prevent the Hokage from taking on too much, a Council of Elders was set up. Families that had made great contributions to the village had seats, including the Uchiha.

It’s a pity that the Uchiha seat became a verbal seat after Uchiha Madara defected.

Not to mention the rights of elders, even the Uchiha have no place in the elders' meeting.
