Chapter 225 Daughter and grandson

Mikoto, who was confused for a while, came back to her senses and said, "Father, what kind of heel are you talking about?"

"Follow him as you would with Fugaku." Uchiha said in a deep voice.

"Huh?" Mikoto said confused again.

Lu Xun once said: When I type a question mark, it is not that I have a problem, but that you have a problem. The same is true for the question mark after the word "ah".

"No, father, why do you have such a plan? What are you thinking about?"

"I am Fugaku's wife, his sister."

Uchiha sighed for a moment: "Oh, what else can I plan?"

"I am thinking about you and your two grandchildren."

"Although I don't want Fugaku to die, he has indeed gone to the Pure Land."

"You are so young, is it possible for you to imitate your best friend and remain a widow?"

"Your sister can only be regarded as a clan sister, and the blood relationship has long since faded."

"And what if we are closely related by blood?"

"As long as you are not biological sisters, you can combine. In this way, the Uchiha bloodline will be the purest. There will be no such precedent in the clan."

"That is to say, there have been a lot less since the establishment of Konoha, but it is not without them. There were many such precedents during the Warring States Period and before."

"what is the relationship?"

"But age..."

Setsuna Uchiha interrupted directly: "The age gap between you is not that big. You are in your prime."

"The most important thing is the safety of Itachi and Sasuke. It is very dangerous for others to take over, and it is not without danger for Xuan to take over."

"In the future, Mr. Xuan will get married and have children of his own. Then Itachi and Sasuke will be in an awkward situation."

"What man doesn't want his children to inherit the family fortune he has built?"

"Now Xuan's strength is unfathomable. Only one person knows the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan except himself."

"In the future, his strength may even grow to the level of Master Madara."

"If he had done it secretly, would it be possible for Itachi and Sasuke to survive?"

"If something happens to Itachi and Sasuke, just as a precaution, we will eradicate the root cause, and something will probably happen to you too."

"I'm not afraid, I'm not young anymore."

"When he gets the idea, half of his body will be buried in the ground, and he will be dead in just a few years."

"You will have at least thirty-four years left by then."

Mikoto's expression changed after hearing this, and she said hesitantly: "Father, I know that the new patriarch has come to power, and the situation of widows in the old era is very delicate, but shouldn't Xuan be in the same situation?"

"Oh, silly daughter, judging from Xuan's behavior all the time, there is really no need to worry too much at the moment."

"But you have to know that people can change. How can you be sure that Xuan will not change in the future?"

"Power is the most corrosive thing in people's hearts. How many heroes have never been able to see through it?"

"For example, the one who is currently the Hokage."

"The man who was known as the hero of the past is now quite old. Isn't he still in love with you?"

"That eldest son is being transferred back and forth on the battlefield to gain military exploits and increase his reputation. Do you really think that others can't see the plans of that person and the Sarutobi clan and others?"

"It's so abominable!"

"In the past, the position of Hokage was passed down through the lineage of Hokage's master and apprentice, but now it is becoming hereditary."

"That's it for the Senju clan. Although I can't understand what Senju Tobirama has done, I admit that he is a great man of his generation, and I admire him."

"Who is the Sarutobi clan?"

"How can the Sarutobi clan be so virtuous as to produce two Hokages?"

"Ahem, that's too far off topic."

"In short, we should plan ahead and focus on the future, and don't regret it until the end."

"You have become a family. As long as you don't do anything inappropriate, you don't have to worry about safety even if Itachi and Sasuke don't get to be the clan leaders in the future."

Mikoto's expression changed for a moment after hearing this, and then she said with a relieved look: "Father, what you said makes sense."

"But in what form?"

"I can't marry him, can I?"

"I'm already married and the mother of two children. Will he dislike it?"

"This is a question, don't worry, let me think about it..." Uchiha said, stroking his beard gently.

After a moment, Uchiha's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.

"Father, do you have an idea?"

"Well, in the form of inheritance."

"Inherit?" Mikoto asked with confusion.

"That's right, it's inheritance. The new patriarch inherits everything from the old patriarch, including his wife and concubines."

"Is there any precedent for this?" Mikoto asked in surprise.

"Of course there is, you just don't understand it."

"We, the Uchiha clan, are both a ninja family and a noble of the Land of Fire."

"Although the monogamy of the ninja profession is usually practiced, you can also enjoy the polygamy of the nobles of the Fire Country."

Polygamy in the Fire Nation should be more accurately defined as monogamy with multiple concubines.

"The nobility of the Fire Nation, or to be precise the nobility of the world, has many precedents for new patriarchs to inherit everything from the old patriarchs."

After all, the rich and nobles are the existences that the common people are jealous of but yearn for, and some things have been tacitly understood for a long time.

"This is a method that the wealthy nobles came up with to avoid turmoil when the old and new forces change and to protect the eldest son, heirs, wives and concubines of the old clan."

"We in the Uchiha clan don't have many precedents like this, but there are a few in the past."

"Huh... It's good if there is a precedent, it's good if there is a precedent." Mikoto breathed a sigh of relief.

"Daughter, do you hate Xuan?" Uchiha said with a slightly condensed expression.

"Of course I don't hate it." Mikoto shook her head.

"To tell the truth, Xuan is handsome and handsome, with a good figure and temperament. He is smart, wise, stable and mature. He is so powerful that he is famous in the ninja world at a young age. He can be said to be a hero of his generation."

"And according to what you said, father, Xuan still has huge potential, and the future is limitless!"

"They are usually nice to me, you, Itachi, and Sasuke. How could I hate such a person?"

"I'm still a little worried that I'm not good enough for him. Am I worried that he will reject me?"

Uchiha nodded slightly for a moment. There was indeed a possibility of being rejected. How could this be possible?

"What's his impression of you?"

A look of memory appeared on Mikoto's face and she said, "It should be pretty good."

"I remember when I said I would help her introduce a girlfriend, he meant to follow my template to find her."

Snap, Uchiha clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This won't be a big problem. I'm sure to convince him."

This was best, otherwise he would have to think of some means to force Gen Uchiha to accept his daughter, such as having a drunken... relationship.

If people are not happy, such calculations are risky.

"Then I'll leave it to you, father." Mikoto, who was kneeling on the cushion, bowed slightly and said.

"You're welcome. I didn't fulfill my father's responsibilities in the past, but now I should consider you and my grandson." Uchiha Setsuna said with a kind and loving face.

"Um."

"Father, I am afraid that the news of Fugaku's death cannot be hidden from Itachi and Sasuke."

"Sasuke is still young and easy to coax, but what about Itachi?"

Uchiha's expression changed instantly and he sighed: "Oh, what else can I do?"

"This is an inevitable growth process Itachi will have to face sooner or later."

"It's just that you should pay more attention to him and enlighten him more."

"Although this child has outstanding talents and is usually polite and sensible, he is actually sensitive and thinks too much."

"Precocious wisdom is sometimes not a good thing..."

"I see."

"Okay, it's getting late. Take a quick rest. You have to get up early to prepare breakfast tomorrow."

"Father, please go to bed early."

"Um."
