Chapter 108: Clouds in all directions

Meijiro Umezu returned to his official residence, waved the housekeeper who followed him, and sat in the study and thought quietly. Why did Kaichi Asano kill His Majesty the Emperor, and who instructed him to do this? The most important thing is that Kaichi Asano is his direct subordinate, and he brought it into the palace himself. His Majesty the Emperor died in front of him, and he could not escape responsibility no matter how he said.

Meijiro Umezu took out a box of cigarettes from the drawer. He rarely smoked, and only occasionally smoked when making major decisions. Lighted the cigarette, watched the sparks of the cigarette butts burn slowly, and the blue smoke curled upwards, Meijiro Umezu fell into deep thought.

Many people were also in the harbor of Mijiro Umezu. The cabinet meeting was held directly in a side hall in the palace, and all cabinet ministers were asked to attend.

"Everyone, I will first inform you about the current situation. The doctor has confirmed that His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated." Prime Minister Koiki Aki announced the news in a very sad tone.

In fact, people have been prepared for this long ago, but after hearing this news, people were still shocked. Many people shouted loudly, and the venue suddenly became chaotic.

"We must avenge His Majesty the Emperor, kill the assassinator and his accomplices."

"Where is that Kaichi Asano, did he say who was instructing him? You must find out the whole story of this matter."

"What should we do now, how should we deal with this?"

Koiki Akira slapped the table with his hand and said loudly: "Okay, now is not a time for chaos. We will face the biggest crisis in this cabinet next, so please calm down. We need to face the assassination of the Emperor together to ensure that the country does not fall into chaos."

When people heard Koi Iso Kyoto say this, they realized the seriousness of the problem. People stopped and looked at the somewhat thin Prime Minister in front of the stage.

"First of all, His Majesty is assassinated and returned to the arms of Amaterasu. But how should we explain to the people and how should we tell the outside world about this matter? If people know that His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated and killed, all of us will not be able to escape this responsibility. I think that by then, you will be able to step down from the stage to retire and retire, it will be a good ending."

"Secondly, when the emperor is assassinated, what should we do next? Should we choose the next emperor as soon as possible, and who is the next emperor? This is all something we need to consider."

"Next, everyone should cheer up, because those political veterans, major families, and all forces in Japan will be moved at this time. It is impossible to hide the news of the assassination of the emperor, so please work hard to deal with it."

No one present spoke. It was not that they had no ideas, but that they had too many ideas. Which one was sitting here was not supported by a force, and which one was a simple role. Everyone had their own ideas. At this moment when great turmoil was about to occur in Japan, the first thing everyone thought about was the interests of themselves, their own family and their power.

No matter how good Koikiki Aki said on stage, it didn't help them. The big families and big forces in Japan were still the ones that determined the fate of the empire.

Is this a matter of wanting to decide on the emperor's choice? Is it possible for Koiki Aki to control this? It is absolutely not. The Japanese royal family forces, military forces, government forces, and large family forces will be intertwined and jointly push this matter forward. As for who can be effective in the end and who will fall in this change, it depends on the result of the game.

The Japanese royal family is also a very powerful one in Japan. It does not refer to the Tianhuang family, but to those very well-developed royal family branches. Although they were born from the Tianhuang family, they have long developed into an alternative and abnormal force in their long history. Some of them have more real power than the Tianhuang family, such as the royal family, such as Higakurei, Kanei, and Fushimigu.

Prince Zairen of Xianyuanmiao is currently one of the elders of Xianyuanmiao, an army general and the Imperial Marshal. He was once the chief of the Army Staff and an important member of Xianyuanmiao. As an old army marshal, his tentacles can be said to have penetrated into every corner of the army, so he naturally learned about the assassination of Emperor Showa at the first time.

Prince Zairen of Xianyuanmura is 80 years old this year, but he is still energetic. After hearing that Emperor Showa was assassinated and died, his two snow-white eyebrows were twisted together.

"The cabinet cannot be allowed to interfere in this matter. The emperor's affairs are both state and family affairs. Our royal family must not let it go, otherwise those people in the cabinet may make trouble. The candidates for the new emperor must be in the hands of our royal family."

"Futou, hurry up and inform the Fushimi Miyaki family, Higashiri Miyaki family, Takamatsu Miyaki family, Kanei Miyaki family, Kitashirakawa Miyaki family, and Taketa Miyaki family. We want to meet together and study the many things left behind by Emperor Showa after his death."

"Hayi, I'll go now." Fujido, as the butler of the Immortal Palace family, quickly took the order.

At the Japanese Army Department, Shanshanyuan is discussing the matter with several army generals.

The Japanese Navy Department and Navy Minister Mitsumasa Minuta also convened a group of Japanese Navy generals to hold a meeting.

Different factions were divided into the Japanese army a long time ago, especially the Japanese army and navy, which had always been in conflict, and had reached a point where everyone knew it and even affected the situation of the war. However, due to the powerful force of these soldiers, even the emperor and the cabinet could not manage it, so they could only let it go.

Even within the army, there are still many factions. The Japanese army is obviously divided into ruling factions and imperial factions, while there are treaty factions and fleet factions in the navy. Below are a series of small factions formed due to differences in origin and factions.

Although the news of the assassination of the emperor was not announced to the public, the entire Japanese senior officials have basically known it. However, many people have various ideas and are contacting their own faction or close people, either to protect themselves or to gain benefits from this change, and everyone is working hard to win.

On the surface, Japan is still living peacefully, but inside, it has been surging, brewing a huge lightning storm, but I don’t know when it will erupt, and at the moment of the outbreak, how many people will die because of it.

In the Japanese General Staff Headquarters, Meijiro Umezu convened an emergency meeting, convened all senior officials, and revealed the news that His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated. Many people were shocked and changed their color on the spot. What made these people even more disgraceful was that the person who assassinated Emperor Showa was actually the person in the General Staff Headquarters, the one who they looked down upon, Asano Kaichi, but did such a shocking thing.

"Now Kazuichi Asano has been taken over by the Ministry of Justice, saying that she wants to investigate this matter. Everyone, I don't know why Kazuichi Asano wanted to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor, but one thing I know is that the General Staff Headquarters is in trouble, and it is very likely that you will not escape this disaster. You guys, do you have any ideas?" Mijiro Umezu looked at everyone present with a gloomy face and asked.
