Naruto: If I ask you to practice gentle fist, will you drive a Gundam?
Chapter 30: Rectification of the Clan
Ningji's words pushed the few lackeys who had previously started the commotion to the forefront and made them the target of public criticism.
Now all the branch families are watching them.
These people looked at each other, not knowing where to look, and finally could only look at Hinata Jingzong beside them with help.
This certainly didn't escape Neji's observation.
"I'm asking you a question. Why are you looking at Lord Jingzong? Could it be that Lord Jingzong has something to do with this matter?"
Ningji had long realized that Hyuga Kagemune of the main family had a relationship with these people. If it weren't for the support of the main family, these lackeys would never dare to be so presumptuous.
Well, since they have a backer, it is far from enough to just punish these lackeys. It is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. If we want to resolve this matter thoroughly, the clan must also make its attitude clear!
"Lord Jingzong? Can you say something too?"
Ningji looked at Jingzong with a smile. Although the clothes of this middle-aged man were wrinkled and stained, he was still full of majesty. After all, as the elder of the main family, he represented the face of the main family.
"I just heard that there are difficulties in dividing the family, so I came to visit you. I don't know anything else!"
Although Hyuga Kagemune no longer had the arrogance he had before, his tone was still calm and composed.
"Oh? Really? That means these people have nothing to do with the Zong family?"
"It doesn't matter at all!"
Hinata Jingzong said categorically that although the purpose of his trip was to bring down the young master of the branch family, he saw that the situation was hopeless and some things should be abandoned decisively. He must not let the other party catch him and use the advantage.
"Okay! Then I feel relieved!"
After saying this, Neji put away his smile and shouted to a certain direction in the crowd:
"Hinata Dong! Please come forward!"
Hearing the voice, a tall and cold woman walked through the many branch family members and came in front of Neji:
"Master of the family!" Hinata Dong bowed respectfully, his every move full of professionalism and elegance.
"Yeah!" Neji looked at the other person with appreciation, and Hinata Dongya returned a knowing look.
The two can call each other brother and sister in private, but in this kind of occasion, they must use formal titles.
With a considerate and professional maid like Hinata Dong to assist him, Neji felt both relieved and comfortable.
"Hinata Dong, please help everyone recall the family rules of the Hyuga family, such as what are the crimes for provoking trouble, forming cliques for personal gain, and rebelling against superiors?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the tribesmen showed fear on their faces, especially those who had just taken the lead in making a fuss.
Although Hyuga Neji, the time traveler, doesn't know the family rules and regulations of the Hyuga clan, Hyuga Dong, the chief maid, definitely knows them!
"Yes, sir!" Ri Xiangdong received the order respectfully, then turned around, stood up straight, and solemnly said to all the tribesmen in the hall:
"Choosing quarrels and provoking trouble should be sentenced to one month's imprisonment in the clan and have his salary deducted!"
"Those who form cliques for personal gain should be sentenced to three months in prison and have their wages deducted!"
"Those who commit treason should be sentenced to life imprisonment or exile!"
"above!"
After saying that, Hinata Dong turned around and reported to Neji.
Ningci looked at Hyuga Dong and nodded, then said to the tribesmen in the hall:
"Everyone heard it! It's not me, Neji, who wants to show off my authority, but this is the Hyuga family law!"
After saying this, Neji looked determined, revealing an unquestionable kingly arrogance as he looked down at all the tribesmen.
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent. After hearing how severe the punishments were, everyone looked at each other. After all, there were quite a few people who had joined in the commotion just now. At this moment, every member of the Hyuga branch family felt insecure, fearing that the people around them would report their behavior to the young master.
"But!" Ningji suddenly changed the subject, and his attitude softened a little, saying:
"I know you're all here because of the salary issue. Essentially, no one is wrong. Except for the few who led the group, the actions of the others will not be investigated!"
When the members of the branch family heard what Neji said, they almost cheered out loud. While they were glad that they had escaped, they were also grateful to the young head of the family.
At this time, Neji continued:
"Also, all the tribesmen who didn't receive their wages on time can receive double wages this month!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the clansmen from the branch family could no longer hold back and burst into cheers.
"Master Neji! Thank you! You are so kind!"
"Why are you still calling me Young Master? You should call me Master of the Family!"
"Yes, yes, Master! You are awesome!"
. . .
From the beginning, Hyuga Kagemune had been observing Neji's every move. On the one hand, he was shocked that he could release such powerful pressure at such a young age. On the other hand, he admired his way of governing the clan by combining kindness and force.
"It's a pity that he is a branch family, otherwise he would have the hope of becoming the legitimate successor of my Hyuga..."
Hyuga Kagemune admires Hyuga Neji very much, but he also feels sorry for him.
Unlike Hyuga Kagemune, Hyuga Dong who was standing next to Neji now had a smile on his face. Hyuga Dong didn't have many thoughts about this little master. He was just grateful to him for saving him from the violent means of Hyuga Hiashi, but now, there is an additional affection between master and servant.
Looking at the handsome and righteous young master in front of him, Hinata Dong loved him more and more. This love contained gratitude, admiration, praise, and some other things that were hard to explain.
While most people were cheering, the few ringleaders were silent and trembling in the middle of the crowd.
Now, they were first accused by Hyuga Neji and then abandoned by Hyuga Kagemune. They are completely isolated and helpless.
Not to mention double wages, they now just hope to get out of here alive.
At this time, other people in the tribe also noticed these people who were out of tune with everyone, so they asked:
"Master Neji, no, Master Patriarch! What are we going to do with these traitors!?"
"Yes, Master! I have disliked them for a long time!"
"Yes, yes! These people must be severely punished! Otherwise it is really unacceptable."
Looking at the many indignant members of the clan, Ningci felt amused. Weren't you just the same as them? Haha.
But the law does not punish the masses. If all those who caused the commotion were really dragged out and executed, then Hyuga Dong would probably be the only one in the Hyuga branch who would be loyal to him.
"Ahem!" Neji cleared his throat, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said:
"Come here! Take these people away and detain them now. We will discuss their specific fate later!"
