Although the crown prince was the most legitimate heir to the throne, he lacked sufficient prestige in the court, making him very vulnerable to being overthrown by his brothers.

Is it possible that Yu Gongtaku will also become a crown prince who is stripped of power?

What a joke! If he had known it would turn out like this, he would never have agreed to Kamijou Seiichiro's request, even if it meant his death.

"Could you explain what happened in detail?" Yu Gongtaku asked. Since the Kamijou family also had internal troubles, why not deal with them first, and then focus on dealing with external enemies?

“That won’t do.” However, to Yu Gongtaku’s surprise, Kamijou Ayako chose to refuse to tell them the specific information. “I’ll deal with those ingrates. You two can focus on those scheming guys.”

"I see," Yu Gongtuo finally understood.

Ayako Kamijou's intention was for the two of them to deal with the external enemies, while she herself would face the internal troubles alone.

That's true. In everyone's eyes, the most threatening person in the Kamijou family right now is not Takumi Hanomiya, nor Kino Kamijou, but Ayako Kamijou, the wife of the head of the family.

Ayako Kamijou also enjoys extremely high prestige within Japanese family circles. If her identity were switched with Seiichiro Kamijou's, they might be even more terrifying.

Therefore, the other families will definitely be on guard against Ayako Kamijou's movements at all times, while the ingrates within the family will focus their attention on Takumi Hagiya and Kino Kamijou.

Because they only need to deal with Hagiya Taku and Kamijou Hino to successfully take over, as Kamijou Ayako is not even on their radar.

Therefore, this arrangement allows the goals of the two sides to be completely reversed. External enemies will not pay attention to Hagiya Taku and Kamijou Hino, so let the two of them deal with the people from other families.

Conversely, internal enemies won't pay attention to Ayako Kamijou, so let her deal with the ingrates within the organization.

She truly lives up to her title as the matriarch of the family. Perhaps it was because of her husband's death and the family's imminent danger that she unleashed all her potential.

Or rather... Ayako Kamijou has always possessed this ability, but because of Seiichiro Kamijou, she hasn't had the opportunity to show it.

"I understand."

Before Kamijo Hino could even understand what was happening, Hagiya Taku had already nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

......

"Taku, how did it go?" Outside the room, Moriyama Omi was left waiting until Hagiya Taku and the others came out, and she finally had a chance to go up and ask what happened. "What did your aunt say?"

Seeing Moriyama Omi's puzzled expression, Hagiya Taku decided not to tell her about their conversation for the time being.

"Omi, on the day of the funeral, please keep an eye out for any strange people in the crowd, whether they are from the Kamijou family or not."

Yu Gongtaku suddenly thought of a good idea, because there were not just three people here, but four.

The fourth person was Moriyama Omi.

Hagami Taku had never imagined that Moriyama Omi could actually be a crucial part of their operation.

Because Moriyama Omi's current identity is merely that of Hagiya Taku's lover, neither other families nor the ingrates within the Kamijou family will pay much attention to her, a commoner.

At times like these, simply taking advantage of their neglect of Moriyama Omi can achieve unexpected results. Yumiya Taku knew this very well, so he directly assigned a task to Moriyama Omi.

"Know it."

Moriyama Omi nodded obediently. Although she didn't know what had happened, she would definitely do it since it was Yumiya Taku's request.

Chapter 177 Suspicious People

It was under these circumstances of internal and external troubles that Kamijo Seiichiro's funeral came about.

On this day, people from various families went to the Kamijou family to pay their respects, including some who were prominent figures throughout Japan.

Taku Hagami and Hino Kamijou were active at the event as the main characters in this incident.

"Ms. Kamijou, I heard you don't have a boyfriend yet. I wonder if I'm suitable for this position?"

A young nobleman from an unknown family looked at Hino Kamijou with a provocative gaze, which also carried a hint of malice.

Yu Gongtaku didn't say anything when he saw this, because he knew that the young nobleman was definitely not from a local family in Kyoto, or even a local family in the Kansai region.

He must be from Hokkaido or the South China Sea, because he had no idea what it meant to strike up a conversation with Kino Uejo.

"You pig like you think you can be my boyfriend? Take a piss and look in the mirror, then get the hell out of here!"

Unconcerned about the strange looks from those around her, Kamijo Hino shouted at the young nobleman who had tried to flirt with her. After saying that, she splashed the red wine in her hand onto his face and then walked away gracefully.

Those who witnessed this scene couldn't help but suppress their laughter; they all looked at the young nobleman with the eyes of someone looking at a fool.

Sigh, another victim. I wonder how many boys Kamijo Hino will have to reject before she'll stop.

However, none of Kaname's suitors could have imagined that the man she truly liked was currently out drinking with others.

......

By noon, Yu Gongtuo was almost completely drunk and unconscious. He had no idea how much he had drunk that morning. He only knew that he couldn't touch alcohol for the next few days because the smell of alcohol made him want to vomit.

"Tuo".

At that moment, Moriyama Omi suddenly appeared in the room. She was dressed differently from the noble young men and women; instead, she was dressed as a servant and spent the entire morning serving them tea and wine.

This wasn't arranged by Yu Gongtaku; it was her own request, because she felt that only in this way could she find those with ill intentions.

And indeed, by the end of the morning, Moriyama Omi had spotted at least ten suspicious individuals. She managed to photograph them all and was now preparing to show her findings to Hagiya Taku.

However, Yu Gongtaku's stomach was churning and he had no energy to look at Moriyama Omi's harvest, so he asked her to bring him a pot of tea to wake him up.

He originally intended to use this pot of tea to sober up, but unexpectedly, he vomited it up immediately after taking a sip because his stomach could no longer hold anything.

There was nothing Moriyama Omi could do but stay by his side and take care of him. Ayako Kamijou, who knew this, told Hagiya Taku to rest well and asked him not to drink anymore, even if he could replace the alcohol with tea.

So, for the entire afternoon, Takuya Hagiya stayed in his room, and only after his repeated requests did Omi Moriyama finally agree to continue the investigation.

By evening, all the other families had returned to the inn, as the day after tomorrow was the day before Kamijo Seiichiro's funeral, so they would stay in Kyoto for a few days.

This resulted in all the well-known inns near the Kamijou family being booked out, and they even became a bridge for the various families to get to know each other.

As for the hotel staff, they didn't dare to provoke these big shots at all, and even their boss personally went to entertain the guests.

As for Yu Gongtaku, after resting for a whole day, he had recovered somewhat. At least the nausea in his stomach had disappeared, and he was able to think and talk normally.

"These are the guys I noticed, the ones whose behavior was a bit off."

Moriyama Omi spread out a pile of photos on the bed. Each photo showed a face, and these people had all been active at the event during the day. Almost every one of them had drunk with Hagiya Taku.

The thought of alcohol made Yu Gongtuo's stomach churn again, but he quickly recovered and didn't suffer as much as he had during the day.

“Most of these people are from local Kyoto families; there are very few from families in other regions,” Kamijo Hino said thoughtfully, looking at the photos.

That makes sense. The Kamijou family's stronghold is in Kyoto, and those who most want to replace it are definitely the local Kyoto families.

She and Takumi Hagiya had thought of this before the funeral began, and Moriyama Omi's investigation throughout the day confirmed their idea.

"Let's secretly send some people to keep an eye on them. It's a foolproof method, after all. If they find out they're being watched, they probably won't do anything out of line."

Hagami Taku said that Ayako Kamijou's task for them was to protect the Kamijou family, not to take this opportunity to expand the Kamijou family's power.

Therefore, his main idea was to monitor those suspicious individuals. Even if they were discovered, nothing would happen. Once they abandoned their attack on the Kamijou family, then Hagami Taku would have achieved his goal.

"I'd like to get rid of them all."

However, Hino Kamijou came up with a completely different idea, which almost made Taku Hagiya and Omi Moriyama jump out.

What a joke! Killing so many family members would have immeasurable consequences. The Kamijou family would be isolated by the entire city of Kyoto and even the whole of Japan.

“No, absolutely not. If you insist on your opinion, then I’ll have no choice but to tell your aunt.” Yu Gongtaku said with a serious expression, because even he understood how serious the consequences of doing so would be.

"Haha, I was just joking. Since you all disagree, then forget it." Seeing that Yumiya Taku was reacting somewhat excessively, Kamijou Hino immediately dismissed this crazy idea.

“In that case, do as I say. Hino, have some people you completely trust monitor those guys. Tell them to report immediately if they make any moves, and it won’t matter if they are discovered.”

"Hanami Taku said, then he looked at Moriyama Omi: "Omi, there might be more suspicious people than just these people. I'll have to trouble you tomorrow too."

There are at least a thousand people at the venue today, and Yu Gongtuo doesn't believe that only these guys have designs on the Kamijou family; there must be others.

"Okay, I understand." Moriyama Omi nodded obediently. For her, as long as she completed the task given by Hagami Taku, it was something to be happy about.

Therefore, even if the other party keeps making demands of her, she will do them without complaint.

"I hope we can get through this," Yu Gongtuo murmured to himself, silently praying that nothing unexpected would happen.

He valued the safety of everyone more than the position of head of the family.

Chapter 178 Did you ask her to do this?

Soon, the day of Kamijo Seiichiro's burial arrived as scheduled.

Based on Hagiya Taku's suggestion, Kamijo Hino selected dozens of trustworthy servants to monitor those whose behavior was suspicious.

Because the number of suspicious people was increasing, but the number of servants who could be trusted was very small, Yu Gongtuo simply exposed them directly. This way, those who knew that their whereabouts had been exposed would not dare to do anything out of line.

Meanwhile, Hanomiya Taku and Kamijou Hino were still receiving families from all over Japan who came to attend the funeral every day. Needless to say, they were exhausted. Even Kamijou Hino was finding it hard to take it, let alone Hanomiya Taku.

The combined physical and mental exhaustion caused them to sleep from the afternoon of the first day until the morning of the second day, and then they began preparations for the burial of Kamijo Seiichiro.

As for Ayako Kamijou, there's no need to worry. Taku Hagiya trusts her abilities because she is Seiichiro Kamijou's wife and the one who truly strategizes behind the scenes for the Kamijou family.

With her around, it was reassuring for Takumi Hagiya and Hino Kamijou.

......

"Ah Tuo!"

On the day of the burial, Yu Gongtaku was receiving guests as usual when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Following the crowd, he spotted Hengchuan Xinbei, with Zuo Gong An Teng following behind him.

Behind them were two middle-aged men, who should be the heads of the Hengchuan family and the Zuogong family. Although it wasn't the first time Yu Gongtuo had met them, he didn't have a deep impression of them.

"A-Tuo, this suit really suits you." Hengchuan Xinbei jogged up and put his arm around Yu Gongtuo's shoulder.

Those around were all taken aback by what they saw, because they knew who Yu Gongtuo was. He was the heir appointed by the Kamijou family, a genius destined to shine in the future.

But now, there are actually people who aren't afraid of death trying to establish a relationship with him. Aren't they afraid of causing conflict between the two families?

"Actually, I prefer wearing kimonos."

However, what's even more shocking is that Hanamiya Taku, whose shoulder was being put on his arm, not only wasn't angry, but even replied to what Tsunekawa Shinhoku had just said with a smile, which makes people start to wonder what kind of relationship the two of them have.

In fact, there were quite a few people in the crowd who could recognize Hengchuan Xinbei's identity, but what puzzled them was why Hengchuan Xinbei and Yu Gongtuo had such a good relationship.

Logically speaking, the headquarters of the Tsunekawa family is in Tokyo, while the headquarters of the Kamijou family is in Kyoto. One is in the Kanto region, and the other is in the Kansai region. Even if the two know each other, their relationship should not be so close.

That's because no one present knew that Hanomiya Taku was attending Furukawa High School in Shibuya Ward, Tokyo. This news had long been kept secret by the major families in Tokyo, especially the Tsunekawa and Sōmiya families, who had access to Hanomiya Taku every day.

Even if other families investigated Hagiya Taku's background, they would not know any detailed information about him, because Kamijo Seiichiro, who had anticipated this, had already completely sealed off information about Hagiya Taku's past.

The only people who might know about his past are probably Hengchuan Xinbei and Zuo Gong Ando, ​​because the three of them have been friends since junior high school.
