Chapter 1092 Even Yoshiko Kawashima was stunned; who did this?
Who?
Prince Asaka was unaware of this.
But he knew very well that he had to find a scapegoat now. Only in this way could the suspicion against his scoundrel son-in-law be cleared and the imperial city would not be able to mobilize the inner guards.
Once the inner guards are mobilized, Zhou Weiguo will surely die, and his daughter will definitely become his son-in-law.
These consequences are something he must bear alone, but further down the line, the entire empire will have to share the responsibility.
He knew very well that there were more than a dozen poison gas bombs buried under the garden in the backyard of the Nan family, and Nan Zhaolin had also told him this fact.
In Kyoto, Zhou Weiguo didn't know who he was still in contact with.
What would happen if a dozen poison gas bombs exploded? And what would happen if other ones were added?
Seeing that Asaka remained silent, Sakata Seishiro said, "We need to find someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
The Prime Minister was also thinking about this issue when he returned to Downing Street.
Who should be held responsible for this?
Nothing happened in the palace, but the commotion was so great that he was severely reprimanded.
"Your Excellency, perhaps we should summon Sakata and Prince Asaka for a discussion?" The secretary was unable to answer the Prime Minister's question.
This level of matter is beyond the reach of someone like him.
The prime minister, who was standing by the window, nodded and said, "Go and have them come over."
Still unable to find a suitable candidate, the two arrived at the Prime Minister's residence.
"You should already know what happened," the Prime Minister asked.
Seeing the two nod, the Prime Minister continued, "His Majesty is furious this time and wants me to investigate this matter as soon as possible to give him an explanation, and also to give the Empire an explanation."
The main purpose is to give His Majesty an explanation; as for the empire, isn't that his?
"What does the Prime Minister mean?" Sakata felt that it was best to hear the Prime Minister's opinion first before speaking, even if he couldn't speak, there was someone else beside him.
They are discussing how to resolve the conflict.
And in Yueyang City, it was only a short time before dawn.
Yoshiko Kawashima had just gotten up when she received a shocking message from Yu Cui.
"When did this happen?" Yoshiko Kawashima couldn't believe it. It had only been the time it took to fall asleep, and poison gas had already been dropped on Kyoto.
This is something she was planning to do but hasn't done yet, but now, who will do it?
It seems I can't cause trouble for Zhou Weiguo anymore. Yu Cui is right. If Zhou Weiguo can turn against the people I've won over, it means he already knows my plans and is preparing to strike first to warn me what will happen if I harbor murderous intentions towards his woman.
Therefore, she decided to stop targeting Zhou Weiguo's women, but she also needed the conflict between the mountain city and the empire to deepen and continue fighting, thus depleting the resources of both sides.
She decided to try a different approach: using poison gas.
Moreover, this reason was attributed to Zhou Weiguo, because he was a suitable candidate.
As for the reason, it's actually quite simple: the North China Area Army has yet to give him an explanation for the 3rd Division killing the Independent Brigade, and that's why he wants to cause trouble.
However, she didn't yet have a plan on how to proceed.
"Who did this?" Yoshiko Kawashima asked, looking at the jade in front of her.
Yu Cui knew that her young mistress hadn't done this, so she shook her head and said, "I don't know, but Miss, shouldn't we do something about it now?"
doing what?
"What should we do?" Yoshiko Kawashima looked at Yu Cui, puzzled. "What do you think we should do?"
“Miss, I’m worried that the people in Kyoto will think that we did this.”
Ha ha……
Yoshiko Kawashima laughed a few times and then went to the window: "The innocent are innocent. I did not do this, so I am not afraid of anything. Besides, Fujita and his gang have been keeping a close eye on me for a long time. They can know about my every move, right?"
She didn't believe Fujita wouldn't know, nor that Anami Korechika wouldn't know.
“Miss, we really haven’t done anything, but the way Kyoto has handled these kinds of things in the past makes me very worried.”
They dared not confront Zhou Weiguo, but instead sought a scapegoat, and this scapegoat...
"Would I be a scapegoat?" Yoshiko Kawashima understood what Yu Cui meant. She crossed her arms and looked into the distance without saying a word.
It seems that I am the most suitable candidate.
"She is not the most suitable candidate."
"Your son Wen is in danger this time." Chang Guqing crossed his legs, looked at Xiao Ya sitting opposite him, and lit a cigarette. "I'm afraid this matter will most likely be blamed on him."
"You seem quite happy." Xiao Ya glanced at him.
Hasegawa Kiyoshi clicked his tongue and shook his head; "It's nothing much, but you have to admit, I'm telling the truth, this time it's probably going to cause trouble."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Although I know he didn't do it, what can I do when he has a criminal record?"
Xiao Ya put down her teacup and said, "You underestimate your headquarters. They can definitely tell that this couldn't have been done by my Wen."
Really?
Hasegawa Kiyoshi leaned back; "You know, there are quite a few people in Kyoto who want him dead."
“I admit, even you would secretly wish for something to happen to him.”
He neither denied it nor admitted it, Hase Kiyoshi smiled.
To be fair, he hoped that Zhou Weiguo would get into trouble. If he did something wrong, and it wasn't his doing, then he wouldn't face retaliation from this group, and the deal he made with Zhou Weiguo and his group would disappear without a trace, and no one would investigate.
He believed that Zhou Weiguo's men wouldn't attack people indiscriminately, but would instead target those who made this move and bring them to ruin.
“I didn’t say that.”
But that's what you think, Xiao Ya said without pointing it out: "My Awen did do some things in Kyoto, but he didn't cross any lines. Everyone knows that. Also, as you said, there are many people in Kyoto who wish him dead, but they also have to consider that in their hearts, my Awen is a madman."
Madmen are not to be trifled with, and this indirectly leads them to believe that his men are all madmen as well. Unless they can wipe us all out, the endless retaliation is something they cannot bear. Therefore, this matter will not fall on my shoulders, Awen.
That makes sense. Hase Kiyoshi thought about it carefully and realized it was true.
However, he did not stop the topic, but slowly began to speak: "This incident has a great impact. The headquarters will definitely find a scapegoat. Who do you think they will go to if they don't go to you? Will they go to Yoshiko Kawashima?"
