Byakuya was slightly taken aback.
'Will there be a turn-around after waiting for a while?'
'What does sensei mean by this?'
He couldn't figure it out, but he didn't want to think about it too much, let the outsiders say what they want to say about him, even if those people accused him because of marrying Hisana, he didn't care.
Mazuru noticed the change in Byakuya but didn't say much.
He exchanged some pleasantries and chatted a little with Byakuya, such as how they met and so on.
After Byakuya's explanation, Mazuru was a little surprised. Although in the original book, Byakuya met Hisana in Rukongai, but in this world, it was because of him. When he was in Kuchiki's mansion, he once asked Byakuya to go out for a walk in Rukongai so as to not trap yourself in Noble Street, Byakuya seemed to have listened to his words and then met Hisana in Rukongai.
So, Mazuru was a little speechless.
The meeting with the Kuchiki family ended, and after a few days, Byakuya seemed to understand the meaning of what his sensei said that day.
The Tsunayashiro family accused Byakuya of marrying a woman born in Rukongai.
As a result, it didn't take long for the Tsunayashiro family to burn themselves.
This fire originated from the official publication "Seireitei Communication Monthly" issued by the Eighth Division. In addition to the serialized novels, there are also content about current affairs. Some people buy it for reading novels, while others buy it for reading the latest current affairs and learn about the changes in Seireitei, but no matter what are your interests, since you have bought this publication, you will always read it thoroughly.
However, in this issue of current affairs, it particularly focuses on one thing.
That is, regarding what a person named Tsunayashiro Tokinada from the branch house of the Tsunayashiro family did in the past, this is actually an old case but now it has been rediscovered.
Back then, for some reason, not many people knew about this incident. Now, through the promotion of this Soul Society's best-selling magazine, no matter if it is an old shinigami or some young shinigami, they all now know what Tokinada did back then.
Under the leadership of the family, Tokinada married a commoner shinigami from Rukongai, and made her his wife. Later, because his wife accused him, he directly killed her, but he got away with it because of his status as a nobleman. Even if he was reported later, Central 46 only let the Tsunayashiro family 'imprison' him in their house and did not impose other punishments.
Although the whole article does not say that Central 46's penalty is unfair, but as long as you are not too stupid, you can understand that this penalty is indeed a bit unfair.
Especially the matter of marrying a Rukongai woman, many shinigamis among the Seireitei couldn't help but think of the recent incident at the Kuchiki family.
A group of nobles headed by Tsunayashiro accused the Kuchiki family of insulting the majesty of the great nobles.
As a result, looking back, your family seems to be not much better, even worse.
People in the Kuchiki family also noticed the change of the change in opinions in Seireitei and they also remembered the old incident of the Tsunayashiro family. It seems that Central 46 punished the sinner, but looking at it now, the guilt is really serious for such light punishment.
Since then, the Kuchiki family also began to make efforts.
Many nobles who followed the Kuchiki family also responded one after another, using this incident as an article to denounce the Tsunayashiro family.
You guys accuse Kuchiki family of marrying a Rukongai woman but you also did the same thing in the past. Do you think your Tsunayashiro family enjoys extra privileges?
Moreover, according to the laws of the Soul Society, killing a colleague is punishable by death.
The son-in-law of the Kuchiki family, Kuchiki Koga, killed his colleagues, and was personally executed by the head-captain and Kuchiki Ginrei. Why is your Tsunayashiro family special? Why isn't Tsunayashiro Tokinada executed?
If you compare the two families, the Tsunayashiro family is really not better itself.
Especially since the member of the Tsunayashiro family who killed his own shinigami wife from Rukongai was not sentenced to death, combined with the fact that the Tsunayashiro family accused the Kuchiki family, many civilian shinigamis subconsciously loathed the Tsunayashiro family.
Good guy, no wonder your Tsunayashiro family accuses the Kuchiki family of marrying civilian women. The reason is that you don't care about the lives of civilians. For you, even if you kill civilians, there will be no serious punishment.
Although this is true for the great aristocratic Tsunayashiro family and Central 46, who is also of noble origin, will deliberately favor these great nobles when it comes to similar matters. But this truth is such a truth that it cannot be brought to light.
The Tsunayashiro family became very passive for a while.
In the family land, Tsunayashiro Tetsuya, the head of the contemporary Tsunayashiro family, was furious.
It never occurred to him that, guiding the public opinion and pushing the Kuchiki house in the fire will burn his own family.
**
Before the Shiba family fell, the Tsunayashiro family was once the head of the five great nobles. Later, the Shiba family fell and the Tsunayashiro family was also implicated. The Kuchiki family became the new head of the four great nobles, but the Tsunayashiro family is thinking about returning to the head of the great nobles all this time.
Back then, Kuchiki Soujun was weak and sick, and couldn't be a proper heir of the Kuchiki family and bear its glory. He thought this was an opportunity, but Kuchiki Ginrei turned around and found a talented shinigami to become the Kuchiki family's son-in-law. With Kuchiki Koga as an assistant, even if Soujun is weak and sick, the Kuchiki family will be able to shine and continue its glory.
So, after Koga joined the first team of Special Forces, he found an opportunity to instigate several shinigamis who were from minor aristocratic families to frame Koga.
Later, Koga had an accident, and the Kuchiki family fell into a slump for a while.
In Tetsuya's opinion, Ginrei is old, Soujun is useless, Shihouin Yoruichi, head of the Shihouin family, has defected, these two families have declined successively, so the position of head of the four great nobles should return to his Tsunayashiro family.
But it was at this point that Kuchiki Byakuya began to show his genius-level talent, which made him vaguely see some threats.
However, even Tetsuya never imagined that luck is always on his side, Byakuya, a genius of the Kuchiki family, would want to marry a woman born in Rukongai.
This gave him a great opportunity to attack.
However, this attack was ruined by the surfacing of an old incident.
"Kyoraku Shunsui..."
Tetsuya is also very clear about who is behind that publication. Shunsui was also the one who reported Tokinada back then.
He hates Shunsui to the point of ultimate, but he could do nothing to him.
Not to mention that Shunsui is a captain of Gotei 13 and Yamamoto Genryusai's student, Shunsui is also from a high-class noble family, so he can't act rashly.
"Summon Tokinada!"
Tetsuya also said angrily to those under his command.
A mere commoner, if she dies then let her die. Back then, Tokinada didn't care about the life of his wife who was born as a commoner and neither did Tetsuya. But today, in order to deal with the Kuchiki family's attacks, he had to sacrifice something for Tsunayashiro family. This time it is their loss.
