Chapter 784
Chapter 785: Knighting
After leaving Muto Mansion, Shen Fei had been thinking about Muto Shio's words.

"Shio Muto seemed to agree, but there was clearly a hint of joy in his expression."

"It seems like it's too early to draw conclusions now!"

When the two were chatting just now, Shen Fei could see any slight change in Muto Shio's expression.

He now basically guessed Shio Muto's thoughts.

"Based on my current situation, Shio Muto will only treat me as a convenient tool at best."

"I have the Xingrong Gang's intelligence network in my hands, which is still valuable to him."

"Coupled with Fujiwara Ono and Junko, he shouldn't do anything to me in the short term."

Shen Fei's face was expressionless now. He clearly analyzed the advantages, disadvantages and checks and balances of all parties.

Just before he returned to the intelligence liaison office, he came to a conclusion in his mind.

"If I want to ensure my status for a long time, the Xingrong Gang must be firmly in my hands. This is my greatest use value."

"As for my relationship with Junko, in the short term it can stabilize Muto Shio."

"But in the long term, we still can't hold out too much hope."

When he thought of this, Shen Fei had an idea in his mind.

Returning to the intelligence liaison office, he immediately found Fujiwara Ono.

"Sir, I have sent an invitation to Consul Muto."

"In my humble position, I don't dare expect His Majesty to grant me a marriage. I just hope that I can get together with Junko in the future."

"From now on, everything depends on Chief Fujiwara!"

When Shen Fei said this, he bowed deeply.

He deliberately mentioned the marriage granted by His Majesty, in fact, to induce Fujiwara Ono to fully express his attitude at the dinner.

Only in this way can Shixiong Muto pay attention.

"Heteng-kun, don't worry about this!" Fujiwara Ono patted Shen Fei on the shoulder.

"I, a member of the Fujiwara family, keep my word!"

"When I am promoted to general, I will arrange your marriage for you as soon as possible!"

Shen Fei looked grateful and thanked Fujiwara Ono repeatedly.

Two hours later, the two arrived at Qingping Pavilion.

"Congratulations to Chief Fujiwara on your promotion!"

As soon as they met, Shio Muto congratulated Fujiwara Ono.

After three drinks and five dishes, after talking about the transfer, Fujiwara Ono got to the point.

"Consul Muto, I will go to Jinling to take up my post in two days."

"Shanghai is the capital of intelligence. Even if I go to Jinling to take up a post, I will definitely have to deal with you in the future."

"You and Mr. Heteng are the people I trust most. After I leave, I hope you will support each other!"

After hearing what Fujiwara Ono said, Muto Shio quickly nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Fujiwara Ono glanced at Shen Fei, and then his eyes fell on Muto Junko.

"Consul Muto, no one knows better than me what kind of person Wato-kun is."

"When he heard that I was going to Aurous Hill, the first thing he thought of was his future with Junko."

"I'm taking this opportunity today to express my opinion!"

Fujiwara Ono stood up unsteadily as he spoke.

He vowed, "In my heart, Fuji-kun and Junko are a match made in heaven."

"I told my father about this at the base camp."

"I promised Mr. Heteng that as long as I am promoted to general, I will definitely give him a luxurious wedding!"

In front of Junko and others, Fujiwara Ono said everything in his heart.

"Consul Muto, the title of your Muto family is Baron."

"But if I remember correctly, according to the order of inheritance of the title, the title has nothing to do with you." When Fujiwara Ono said this, Muto Shio's expression seemed a little stiff.

This matter has always been the one he has been least willing to accept.

As the most outstanding person in the Muto family, he got nothing.

Although Fujiwara Ono's words were unpleasant, Muto Shio could only smile with him now.

"Chief Fujiwara has a good memory!"

As soon as Muto Shio finished speaking, Fujiwara Ono laughed.

He looked at Shio Muto and said, "Consul, there are some things I didn't intend to tell you."

"Not even Kazuto-kun knows."

"Today, in order to give Mr. Heto a reassurance, I won't hide it!"

When Fujiwara Ono said this, he put his hand on Shen Fei's shoulder.

He smiled and said, "Heteng-kun is my noble man. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been promoted to colonel so quickly!"

"My father has promised me that as long as I am promoted to general, he will ask your Majesty to grant a marriage to Mr. Fuji!"

"Foreign Minister Matsuoka should have told you about this matter, right?"

"But there's something he definitely doesn't know!"

When Fujiwara Ono said this, Muto Shio was confused.

He really didn't know what else could be more mysterious than His Majesty's marriage.

"Consul Muto, I know that you have always had a grudge against Wato-kun's identity, and I feel very unhappy about this!"

"No matter what, Heto-kun is still mine, and he has long been a part of the empire."

"Not only that, he is also a representative of the goodwill between the two countries and a hero of the empire."

"Do you think it would be a good story if he could get a knighthood?"

As soon as Fujiwara Ono finished speaking, Shen Fei, Muto Shio and Muto Junko were all stunned.

The conferment of knights was beyond their expectations.

"Thank you for your kindness, Chief Fujiwara. All of this is what a humble official should do."

As soon as Shen Fei finished speaking, Fujiwara Ono laughed.

He looked at Shixio Muto and said, "Consul, my father has already discussed this matter with Earl Terauchi."

"The Earl of the temple did not express any objection."

"It's just that the time is not yet ripe!"

At this time, Shixiong Muto finally understood the importance of Shen Fei in Fujiwara's little ambition.

If Shen Fei is really knighted, even the lowest baron will be on an equal footing with the Muto family.

If he really got to that point, he would really have to climb high.

"Chief Fujiwara, I was ignorant and I have already figured out the matter with Fuji-kun and Junko."

"When Mr. Fuji came to see me today, I made my attitude clear."

"If anything happens to Mr. Heto in the future, I will never stand idly by in my humble position!"

After hearing what Shio Muto said, Fujiwara Ono nodded with satisfaction.

In his opinion, for this reason, Shen Fei no longer needs to worry about his and Junko's future affairs.

"Consul Muto, Mr. Wato is my nobleman, and he is also your nobleman!"

When Fujiwara Ono said this, Muto Shio nodded repeatedly.

Next, the whole dinner atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.

However, when Shen Fei sent Fujiwara Ono away, Muto Shizuo was filled with emotions.

"It seems like we really need to treat Shen Fei well next!"
