The man who stepped out of the Toyota was none other than Yamamoto Kawa, the Japanese ambassador to Fengtian!
Yamamoto Kawa rushed over immediately upon receiving the news.
Luckily, he made it in time!
"Young Marshal Lin, I am the Japanese Ambassador to Xia. I am here to help you solve this problem. Please do not act rashly!" Yamamoto Kawa quickly said.
Lin Yu said calmly, "Kento Murakami hit my man. That's my own business, and it's none of your concern!"
"Young Marshal Lin!" Yamamoto Kawa quickly added, "Mr. Murakami is a Japanese businessman. Even if he was at fault, you have no right to judge him!"
Lin Yu said with a disdainful look, "This is the land of my Great Xia, not your Japan. Anyone who dares to run wild in my Fengtian has the right to be judged!"
"Young Marshal Lin, do you really intend to disregard the diplomatic relations between our two countries?" Yamamoto Kawa quickly reminded him, his tone carrying a hint of threat.
This has risen to the level of diplomatic relations between the two countries, which is no small matter!
But Lin Yu remained unmoved, sneering disdainfully: "Our Great Xia welcomes guests from all directions with open arms. We have good wine for friends and hunting rifles for wolves!"
"Moreover, given the current strength of our Great Xia, if you are unwilling to pay, that is your own business, and it is also your loss!"
As Lin Yu spoke, he slowly applied more force to Murakami Kento, who was already completely suffocating, his face turning purple, and his eyeballs about to explode.
Yamamoto's face was grim. He gritted his teeth and said, "Young Marshal Lin, as far as I know, Marshal Lin came to the capital to report on his duties this time in order to recommend you as the successor to the marshal. If you kill my Japanese merchant in public, aren't you afraid of being blamed by the higher-ups and losing this opportunity for promotion?"
"Hehe, you Japanese are quite well-informed!" Lin Yu said, putting Murakami Kento down.
Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed his words had worked. However, a hint of disdain immediately rose in his heart.
The people of Great Xia, in the end, still value fame and fortune and cherish their reputation.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not doing it myself, I'm just afraid of getting my hands dirty!"
Lin Yu sneered.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Feng Jiu rushed over and plunged a dagger into Murakami Kento's chest.
"You, uh..."
thump!
Kento Murakami finally collapsed to the ground, dying with his eyes wide open!
"son!!"
Murakami Akiki knelt on the ground, his eyes wide with terror.
Yamamoto Kawa was also shocked. He pointed at Lin Yu and shouted, "Lin Yu, you, you dare to kill someone in public! I will definitely report this to Yandu. Just wait to go to court!"
"Do as you please!" Lin Yu said dismissively.
"From now on, you better behave yourselves in Fengtian! If the Yamaguchi Chamber of Commerce dares to cause trouble again, get out of Fengtian!"
After saying this, Lin Yu waved his hand and led his team away.
Murakami Akiki stared fiercely at his retreating figure, gritting his teeth and whispering, "Lin Yu, I won't let you go! I will definitely kill you!!"
The death of one son and injury of the other in a single day was undoubtedly a tremendous blow to the Murakami family.
However, not many people know about this.
Akiki Murakami didn't intend to make a fuss.
He simply entrusted Yamamoto to file a complaint with Yandu.
The authorities in Yandu received the news quickly.
If the son gets into trouble, the father is naturally the one to take the blame.
In a quaint study.
Lin Yuanlong finally met his father-in-law, Wu Tiande.
Wu Tiande was over seventy years old, wearing a Zhongshan suit, with a deeply lined face, but his eyes were unusually sharp.
“Yuanlong, look at yourself! Your youngest son is too violent. He actually killed a Japanese merchant in public. How can such a person be in power? How can he guard the borders of our Great Xia?”
Wu Tiande snorted and threw the memorial in front of Lin Yuanlong.
Lin Yuanlong chuckled and said dismissively, "Father-in-law, it's just killing a Japanese man, a small matter. Besides, I've been keeping an eye on this Yamaguchi Trading Company for a while now. They have the shadow of the Ninjado School behind them. How many losses have we suffered in our covert war? This Murakami Kento is no loss!"
"How can that be the same?" Wu Tiande said irritably. "Some things can't be brought out into the open. If we really conflate them, then a world war won't be far off!"
Wu Tiande waved his hand, "Let's put Lin Yu's appointment as the heir apparent on hold for now! You should go back to Fengtian first!"
Lin Yuanlong frowned. "We can let Lin Yu go about his decision to become the heir apparent, but dealing with the rebellion of Wu Xueqin and her son can't be delayed, can it?"
Wu Tiande's old eyes flashed with a sharp light, then he shook his head and said earnestly, "Yuanlong, my daughter was indeed wrong this time, but you are the commander-in-chief, and I promoted you. I hope you can put the overall situation first!"
"If it weren't for the greater good, I wouldn't have married your daughter back then!" Lin Yuanlong couldn't help but roar, his body trembling slightly as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.
Wu Tiande paused for a moment, then sighed and said, "I know that you didn't want to marry Xueqin! But no matter what, she's innocent, and she did give you a son. You can't just ignore her completely, can you?"
"Saving face is mutual!"
Lin Yuanlong shook his head. "For the sake of my country and the world, I, Lin Yuanlong, have endured for ten years, resulting in the death of my beloved and my son being forced to wander far from home! From now on, I will never back down again!"
Wu Tiande fell silent, staring intently at Lin Yuanlong.
Lin Yuanlong's gaze showed no sign of yielding.
After a long silence, Wu Tiande finally relented, shaking his head and saying, "The position of heir apparent is the foundation of the nation. Let me think about it some more!"
Lin Yuanlong didn't urge him, nodded and stood up.
