How old are you and still asking for New Year’s money?
"You'd better keep these two boxes. Xia Ji also needs to buy some things for herself." Xiu Mu Yinling said lightly.
"Wait a minute... this is my private money... you are trying to rob it!" The old woman immediately knew what the boy meant and hurriedly protected the two boxes of gold and jewelry.
As a result, it was dug out by Xiu Mu Yin Ling.
"Thank you, auntie. This is my New Year's money this year. When we get married, the gift you prepare for us won't be less than this, right? Thank you in advance!" Xiumu Yinling snatched the box and said it expressionlessly.
The old woman was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. There was nothing she could do, because he was her own nephew.
I could only walk and laugh and curse.
This is truly a case of losing both the wife and the army.
Soon the elders also received the news that their attempts to persuade the enemy to surrender had failed, and they had to find another way.
"How about we take a step back?" the elders gathered for a meeting. "Since the Patriarch truly loves that girl, why not give her a place as a concubine? As for the position of principal wife, it must be left vacant for marriage with another noble. This is already our limit. I believe the Patriarch must be looking for a way out."
It was common for nobles to have three or four wives, and there was nothing to be surprised about.
"Okay, let's go find the head of the family."
Early the next morning, the door of Xiumu Yinling's room was blocked by this group of elders.
"What do you want to do now? I've told you, we two will never separate." Xiumu Yinling said.
The elders all had smiles on their faces.
"I understand. The head of the family is young, so it's normal for him to have a few girls he likes. We are not stopping you this time. We agree to your request and allow you to marry this girl." The elders said with a smile.
Xiumu Yinling was stunned. How could these old guys have changed their nature? Did the sun rise from the west?
These old men are the kind who will do anything for power and profit, and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. Could it be that they have thought of something that can make them money?
"Miss Xia Ji is indeed very beautiful, gentle and well-mannered. If the master of the family is willing, why not make her a concubine? That way, you can be together and it might not delay the marriage..."
Before the elder could finish his words, Xiumu Yinling's face fell.
It seems that these old guys still don’t understand the relationship between him and Xia Ji.
That's right, for these old guys, nothing is more important than another. Even their own sons can be traded for benefits.
"Get out, get out, all of you. Xia Ji will definitely become Xiumu Yinling's legal wife and the mistress of the Xiumu family. You don't need to say anything more!" Xiumu Yinling shouted.
"Master, you have to think carefully. Letting a woman of commoner origin become the mistress of the Kuchiki family is simply a disgrace! Our Kuchiki family will be laughed to death by the other nobles. You have to think carefully!"
Xiumu Yinling was almost annoyed to death by the voices of these old men.
"If I don't become the head of the Xiumu family, will you stop nagging me?" Xiumu Yinling said coldly.
All of a sudden, all the elders shut up.
Xiumu Yinling is now the pillar of the Xiumu family. If Xiumu Yinling leaves, it will definitely be the biggest blow to the current Xiumu family.
"Master...you...must be joking!" The elders forced a smile on their faces.
Xiumu Yinling also knew that she had said something she shouldn't have said in the heat of the moment.
The Kuchiki family must not fall into his hands.
But how can I make these old men shut up?
"Master, you must think carefully about this. Your marriage is not just your personal matter, it's the entire family's. You can't let personal interests override public ones. What would the Xiumu family's ancestors think if they knew about this? An unfilial son in the family? Abandoning the family foundation for a woman?"
Xiumu Yinling really couldn't bear it anymore.
An idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
Since you are so aggressive, don't blame me for being rude.
You have a plan, but I have a ladder.
I admit that I cannot suppress you with my status, so I will find someone who can suppress you to speak for me.
……
Yamabuki Detang was drinking tea in the General Staff Office, flipping through a book in his hand that he had borrowed from the Great Spiritual Book Corridor. The Great Spiritual Book Corridor recorded everything from ancient times to the present. Over the past hundred years, Yamabuki Detang would read books whenever he had free time to supplement his knowledge.
Because it would take at least a month for Kuchiki Ginrin to officially take over as the captain of the Sixth Division, Saito Fuuma was forced to go back to work by him. Seeing her working hard at her job, he was so happy!
It turns out that happiness is built on the suffering of others.
At this moment, the door of his office was suddenly pushed open.
"Who are you talking about? Why didn't you knock before coming in?" Shanbuki Ditang said without raising his head, and closed the book in his hand without saying a word.
The Great Spirit Book Corridor records everything that happened in Soul Society, and what he is reading now is a relatively secret story, the kind that must never be known to outsiders.
For example, the details of King Ling’s dismemberment.
When he looked up, Xiumu Yinling and Xia Ji were standing in front of him.
As soon as he saw the expressions on the couple's faces, he knew that they must be frustrated. The elders of the Kuchiki family would definitely not allow Kuchiki Yinling to marry a commoner woman.
"You two look like you're planning to elope, right?" Yamabuki Ditang said half-jokingly.
"It's enough if you old man keeps nagging me." Xiumu Yinling said angrily. He had to appear aloof in front of the elders so that he could force them to help the old man. However, in front of Shanbuki Ditang, the young man directly revealed his true nature.
"I guess... you two came to me not because you want me to deal with those old men? Forget it! It's difficult for a judge to judge family affairs. You should handle these things among yourselves. I don't want to get into trouble." Yamabuki Ditang said.
Xiumu Yinling never thought that her thoughts would be revealed by just one sentence.
"Chief of Staff, you are the only one who can help me now. If we don't resolve this matter first, I won't have the heart to do special training with you, nor will I be able to inherit the position of captain of the 6th Division. Captain Saito still has to work hard... You don't want to see Captain Saito working hard every day with a resentful face, do you?" said Kuchiki Ginling.
"You don't have to use morality to blackmail me. I have no morals. If I say I won't help, then I won't help, unless..." Yamabuki Ditang showed a sly smile on his face.
Chapter 70: Invite a Master
After discussing the conditions, Xiumu Yinling returned to the Xiumu family with Xia Ji in high spirits.
When they woke up this morning, the elders of Xiumu family discovered that their head of the family was missing. They thought Xiumu Yinling had eloped with Xia Ji and were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. But when they saw Xiumu Yinling coming back with Xia Ji, they finally breathed a sigh of relief!
"Master, where have you been so early in the morning? You scared us to death!" The elders wiped their cold sweat.
The family can't do without him now.
"My fellow elders, I know that I am young and cannot suppress you with my prestige, so I have found someone who can." Xiu Mu Yin Ling had someone to support her this time, and she straightened her back a little when she spoke, with a faint smile in the corner of her eyes.
The elders couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing what Xiumu Yinling said.
"Patriarch, you're such a joke! Who can suppress us? Even if the heads of other noble families come, what can they do? This is our Kuchiki family's private matter, and it has nothing to do with them!" The elders said arrogantly, "Even if the Chief of Staff of the Gotei 13, Yamabuki Tetsugu, comes..."
"So what if I'm here!" Shanchui Ditang's voice came over lightly.
These elders instantly felt like chickens with their necks pinched. The second half of their words were stuck in their throats and they dared not spit them out.
"Chief... Chief of Staff... why are you here?" The speed at which these elders changed their expressions was amazing. They were still shouting in the previous second, and in the next second they put on a smiling face and greeted him respectfully.
The nobles have their own rules and will not use force to solve problems unless absolutely necessary.
Once upon a time, the Central Forty-sixth Room wanted to talk rules with the man in front of him, and then the people in the Central Forty-sixth Room were purged twice, which led to major reforms in the later period and they directly became a pendant of the Gotei 13.
"If you come... we will of course invite you in respectfully! Why didn't you tell us in advance that you were coming so that we could prepare a banquet to welcome you!" The elders showed extremely flattering expressions on their faces.
The so-called rules are just decorations in front of this gentleman.
When people want to talk to you about the rules, they will naturally do so. When they don’t want to talk to you about the rules, they can just raise their hands and kill you.
During this hundred years, Central Office 46 has used its own personal experience to tell everyone that when you have no strength, anger seems so cute.
When these people saw Yamabuki Ditang, although they all had smiles on their faces, they were filled with bitterness in their hearts.
Damn it! Why did the master of the family call this gentleman here?
"Let's go in and talk slowly?" the elders said with a smile.
"No need, I still have work to do. I'll just say a few words and leave. I know that you nobles have all kinds of messy rules, but what era is it now? Are you still clinging to these things? I advocate free love, and I think this couple is a good match. What do you think?" asked Yamabuki Ditang.
"It's a perfect match! We think they are a perfect match too!" The elders changed their previous tone and wanted to kowtow to the ground.
Although Xiumu Yinling looked calm, she laughed happily when she saw the old men like this.
They have today too!
"It's such a simple matter, but I still haven't figured it out after such a long time. Okay, let's go back to work. Yinling, you are my subordinate now. If you have any difficulties, come to me. I am a very kind person." Shanbuki Ditang smiled.
The elders couldn't help but twitch their lips.
A hundred years may seem like a long time to ordinary people, but to the god of death it is like ten years.
They still clearly remember that after Unohana killed Chuanlingting, a sage from the Central Forty-Six Rooms was chopped to death by you just for talking too much. Do you call this kindness?
"By the way, starting from tomorrow you will be training with me for a month. After you come back you will be the official captain of the Sixth Division." Yamabuki Ditang said.
The elders of the Kuchiki family were delighted when they heard the news. The family had gained a captain-level fighter, which could at least ensure that the family would stand for a thousand years.
There was a hint of embarrassment in Xiumu Yinling's eyes. He was fine, but he was a little worried about Xia Ji.
Yamabuki Ditang came to Kuchiki Yinling and whispered in his ear, "It's okay. Let Xia Ji and Saito live together for the next month. If you're worried about these old men, at least you should trust your captain, right?"
Xiumu Yinling no longer had any worries.
After Yamabuki Ditang finished solving the matter, he returned to his office.
The elders of the Xiumu family all had grim expressions on their faces. Xiumu Yinling had finally grown up and was completely out of their control, but this was also a good thing, as it meant that his abilities were superior to theirs.
And the matter has been decided, so these old men can only bow their heads and call Xia Ji "mistress".
Xia Ji never expected that the god of death, who looked only a few years older than herself, could have such a huge deterrent power. These chattering elders were like mice seeing a cat when they saw him.
"Who is that person? He looks very powerful!" Xia Ji asked in a low voice.
"Of course he's powerful! He's the chief of staff of the Gotei 13. He led them to victory a thousand years ago and is now one of the most powerful people in the Soul Society." Kuchiki Ginling said with a hint of longing. "Before I come back, you can move in with Captain Saito. Although she may seem careless, she's a very kind person. You can trust her completely."
Xia Ji nodded, then seemed to remember something very important and whispered, "Why did that chief of staff make such a strange request? We want him to train our grandchildren in the future? We don't even have a son right now, let alone a grandson!"
"Who knows? The Chief of Staff has a far-sighted vision and his wisdom is far beyond our expectations." Xiumu Yinling said.
As for what Yamabuki Detang was thinking?
Of course, he wanted to bully Byakuya when he was a teenager.
At that time, I will team up with Yoruichi to tie up the young Byakuya and bully him. Just thinking about this scene is super interesting.
Who isn’t a fun-loving person?
Thinking of the young Byakuya's gnashing teeth, Yamabuki Ditang couldn't help laughing.
By the way, tomorrow is the day to train Xiu Mu Yin Ling. What topic should I think of?
I want my shadow to always hang over the head of the Kuchiki family.
"Hahahahahaha!" Thinking of this, Yamabuki Ditang couldn't help but let out a very lewd smile.
The staff officers nearby all shuddered, wondering what the chief of staff was thinking and who was going to be unlucky next. They hoped that the unlucky person would not be them.
Chapter 71: The Suffering Day of the Rotten Wood and Silver Bell
Xiumu Yinling was finally able to be with the girl he loved, and he was extremely happy. However, before he could be happy for long, he received a notice from Yamabuki Ditang.
Starting tomorrow, we will have special training, so we can’t eat tonight and tomorrow morning and must go hungry.
Although Kuchiki Ginling didn't know what kind of training she would undergo, since the General Staff had said so, she had no choice but to do as she was told. In the hearts of many reapers, Yamabuki Detang had been deified, knowing everything and being all-powerful, with extremely high combat power and great resourcefulness. It would be terrible if she was caught eating secretly.
So, Xiumu Yinling forced herself not to eat a single bite, even though she was very hungry.
The next morning, Kuchiki Ginling first sent his fiancée to Saito Bulaobushi, and asked Captain Saito to take care of Xia Ji. He then went to the General Staff Headquarters alone and found Yamabuki Ditang.
Yamabuki Ditang couldn't help but smile at the young man in front of him. If they simply considered age, Xiumu Yinling might be older than him.
"You're quite good! You didn't eat anything last night and this morning, which is good. Now I want to hear what you think of yourself. Do you know where your shortcomings are?" asked Yamabuki Ditang.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Xiumu Yinling's face.
In fact, many people don’t know what their strengths and weaknesses are, and live their lives in a daze.
Being able to accurately describe one's own strengths and weaknesses is a rare thing.
Xiumu Yinling couldn't tell what her own shortcomings were.
"Then let me first talk about your strengths. You are honest and kind, and you will not hesitate to help people who need help. You are powerful and can definitely serve as a captain." Yamabuki Ditang said.
Xiumu Yinling was very happy to hear Shanbuki Ditang praising her like that.
