Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Ayako Aso handed the microphone to Eimi Shikami.

Hua Yingmei then announced to the public with elegance and poise:

"Our new political party is called the Public Council. We took one character from each of the two councils, 'Zhi Gong Hui' and 'Zhi Zhong Hui,' to form 'Public Council,' representing our commitment to the well-being of all citizens. Starting today, the Public Council will hold elections for councilors nationwide. Please support us!"

The two mothers, their fair and smooth hands intertwined, fingers clasped together, raised high to express their unbreakable bond.

Shika Mikami and Ayako Aso embraced each other halfway and, facing the voters, confidently announced their goal: "We will take first place nationwide!"

At this moment, the newly formed public meeting, and the newly formed Ayako Aso and Hanae Shikamikaze, are already overflowing with the three essential elements of a successful manga: friendship, hard work, and victory. They can even be linked by a familial bond, since the man behind the scenes is the same person.

The buff stacks to full instantly!

Voters were very excited, and Ayako Aso and Eimi Hana's supporters were frantically sharing the news online, urging all their fans to vote.

The reason why Li Xinghe did not appear at the party's founding ceremony was naturally to maintain the professional demeanor of a husband and not to damage the political image of Lu Yuchi Huayingmei and Aso Ayako, thus causing a cognitive break among their political fans.

In short, although Li Xinghe privately makes Ayako Aso rave, as long as they don't meet in major public occasions, Ayako Aso remains completely innocent. This is a bizarre character archetype that only exists in Japan.

However, most politically apathetic Japanese people don't really care about such a power shift.

Just like Li Xinghe's joke, Japan is the kind of country with a voting system where "I think I am" is the one. Who the people want to elect as prime minister and who the Liberal Democratic Party ultimately decides to elect is completely unrelated.

Therefore, in roadside interviews conducted after the start of the conference, the answers from Japanese people were generally quite perplexing:

"Ah... if Ayako Aso is confirmed to be pregnant, won't she have to go home to give birth in just a few months? That would be great. As expected, it's still better to have Lord Hoshikawa in charge; it gives people a sense of security."

Some people pondered: "Does Mei want to be here, Lin is here, or not...?"

"Actually, didn't Lu Yuchi and Hua Yingmei just have a son? Why don't we let them take turns going home to have children, and let Jian Xinghe govern? Building a separate kindergarten for them wouldn't be bad either. At least the female prime minister is making an effort to have children and contributing to the country's population shortage problem."

Clearly, in Japan, where conservatism is resurging and gender inequality is evident from the Emperor system, most male and female voters naturally endorse the governing abilities of a male political beast like Li Xinghe. They don't have much confidence in Ayako Aso's methods and generally hope that she will go home to have children after taking office, leaving the position to Li Xinghe to lead the team.

Thus, the national prime ministerial election, which began in September, started as Ayako Aso was three months pregnant.

After the first round of voting, Ayako Aso advanced to the next round along with three male left-wing candidates.

During the debate, Ayako Aso, following her master's instructions, firmly grasped the economic issues:

"We will continue our trade ties! Mutual investment and trade between China and Japan will continue. In any case, we will maintain economic stability in East Asia. We will not tolerate those fools who run amok with 'brainless nationalism,' those who keep saying 'drive the Chinese out' and 'resist Chinese capital aggression,' who have no idea how closely China and Japan's economies are intertwined. If we make a mistake, Japan's most important automobile companies will collapse completely! Millions of middle-class Japanese will lose their jobs, fifty cities will experience economic collapse, and an unspeakable war will begin. Anyone who says such things should commit seppuku!"

She dares to emphasize the industrial cooperation and economic ties between China and Japan, something previous Japanese prime ministers wouldn't dare discuss in detail. The more they talked about it, the more they'd be seen as pro-China. But Ayako Aso not only talks about it, she dares to say it loudly.

Sister, you're so outspoken, who can beat you?

The other candidates were speechless.

Ayako Aso was like a fierce hunting dog, exuding a menacing aura and slaying all the candidates who tried to challenge her.

By the end of the month, the final election results were freshly released after strict vote counting.

When the news arrived, Li Xinghe was at the Royal Hospital keeping watch over a patient.

In a small room at the Royal Hospital, heavily pregnant Kaoru Mama lay on the bed, being cared for by Misato Mama and Hina Chiyo.

Shang Qiujia was closely monitored by several female doctors, while Scarlett sat and chatted with the rest of Maleki's team.

Hua Yingmei and Aso Ayako walked in hand in hand.

Aso Ayako stuck out her tongue:

"We won the election. The voter turnout was only about 27%, which is a very low figure compared to previous elections."

Who has the time to go to the polling station? Everyone knows that the final result will definitely not be the one they support, so people are too lazy to even fill out mail-in ballots.

Hua Yingmei sighed slightly:

"A total of 3200 million votes were cleared nationwide within the time limit. Of these, 77% supported Prime Minister Ayako Aso, 10% supported Taro Yamamoto of the Reiwa Shinsengumi who ran as an individual, and 3% voted for the NHK illegal party... How outrageous."

This result is not considered outstanding; despite having already achieved successes in areas such as the remediation of the Fukushima nuclear pollution and economic policies, it still only garnered 20 million votes.

The problem isn't that Ayako Aso is incompetent. It's that the public still harbors strong resistance to a female prime minister elected by universal suffrage. The vote for Ayako Aso was mainly based on Lee Seong-hae's governing abilities, as well as some of her fans who admire her looks.

Fortunately, Ayako Aso's opponents were all relatively unknown minorities. If someone like Shigeru Ishiba, a tenacious and resilient individual, had emerged, Ayako Aso's election campaign would have been in serious trouble, and Li Xinghe would have had to resort to his powerful connections to stuff unidentified ballots into the ballot box.

Li Xinghe pondered:

“We are already conducting ethnic population mobilization.”

There are currently over two million Chinese in Japan, mainly distributed around Tokyo. Having just gained the right to vote as permanent residents, and with the recent opening of voting rights to university graduates, their votes are actually quite easy to mobilize. By pooling the votes of Chinese, Korean, and North Korean residents in Japan and achieving an absolute advantage in the election, Li Xinghe's new political system can remain stable.

Just then, the female secretary came in with the phone:

"Taiwan has secretly sent people again, trying to find Prime Minister Ayako Aso."

Chapter 746: My Son, the Emperor, is Named Nakahito; Defrauding the Taiwanese Military of Data (4400 words)

"Lai the eunuch's men? Go sit at the same table with the wild dogs first."

Li Xinghe curled his lip, showing no interest whatsoever in Taiwan sending someone to secretly visit.

At this moment, Shika Michika took out some tissues and wiped Misato's face:

"Mom, is your milk leaking out?"

"Oh, right."

Misato first wiped her sweater, then teased her older sister, "I wonder how much breast milk you can produce at your age."

"Screw you……"

Mikasa and Tamae are the largest and strongest owners in the family. However, the amount of milk they produce is not significantly related to the size of their breasts.

Under Mikasa's resentful gaze, Lee Seong-ha was pulled in front of Mikasa and asked to help deal with his mother's abundant breast milk.

"Yes... let me suck it first." Misato gave the order.

Li Xinghe had no choice but to comply, and breastfed Jian Meili in front of everyone, demonstrating a peculiar family status.

Just as Li Xinghe was enjoying sucking on Misato, Shang Qiujia suddenly felt something moving at her waist, as if something was breaking and water was flowing.

"Oh no, I can't take it anymore..." As the nurses had repeatedly warned her, she immediately raised her hand to call for a nurse.

At this moment, disregarding the fact that Li Xinghe was suckling his mother's milk and that Hua Yingmei was not pregnant at all, but Jian Meili was pregnant, everyone busied themselves and quickly carried Shang Qiujia into the secret delivery room of the Royal Hospital with the help of the nurses.

The Japanese imperial family rarely used this place; after the war, each member of the imperial family had a difficult birth, while Li Xinghe frequently went here and gave birth to one child after another.

Shang Qiujia entered the delivery room, and the nurses hurriedly prepared to deliver her baby.

For Shang Qiujia, who has a small waist and hips, the first pregnancy was a bit difficult. Although she was over 30, she was still like a young girl, pushing hard with encouragement from the doctor.

"Go for it! Go for it!"

Li Xinghe gripped Shang Qiujia's hand tightly, afraid she was pushing herself too hard, so he muttered instead, "If it really doesn't work, we can have a C-section. If a C-section doesn't work, then we'll have to save the mother..."

Listening to Li Xinghe's dejected words, Shang Qiujia bent over with all her might while mentally stabbing Li Xinghe like a scarecrow.

Finally, the nurse kicked Li Xinghe out:

"Please stop saying discouraging things."

Shang Qiujia chuckled.

Her smile actually relaxed her waist muscles, allowing the baby to emerge more easily. The nurses quickly encouraged her to continue.

After two hours of effort, the child slowly left Shang Qiujia's womb and entered a completely new world.

Finally, Shang Qiujia, covered in sweat, gave birth.

This is a very healthy baby. Compared to IVF babies with intellectual disabilities, he weighs 7 pounds and 4 ounces and has inherited his father's and mother's similar big eyes. In terms of birth status, he was born to be a rich person.

Lying in bed, Shang Qiujia happily hugged her child and hurriedly took out a small note she had written beforehand, saying to the nurses:

"This child will change the future of Japanese history."

This was a pre-rehearsed program designed to enhance the sacredness of the child, with Li Xinghe personally taking the photos to capture the first moments of the mother and child's safety.

Upon hearing that the royal family's heir had been born in nearly 20 years, Emperor Naruhito and his wife rushed to the scene immediately, followed by Emperor Fumihito and his wife as they climbed in.

Empress Masako's depression has improved considerably under Li Xinghe's increasingly relaxed control, and she now inquires of him more intimately:

"You're the father, what name do you want to give him?"

Li Xinghe fell into deep thought.

Japanese emperors do not have surnames, only given names. Deeply influenced by Tang Dynasty culture, they retained the convention of using common characters in their names. In ancient times, there were few rules, and characters such as 良 (liang), 敦 (dun), 政 (zheng), 恒 (heng), and 康 (kang) were all used. After the Nanboku-chō period in Japan, presumably to demonstrate legitimacy, 仁 (ren) became the fixed common character for most emperors.

The problem is that there are just too many names with the prefix X+仁. All the good characters that can be used have already been taken by the older ones.

Actually, Li Xinghe wanted to name the child Zhiren or Wenren. But unfortunately, Zhiren already overlapped with the name of the ancient Emperor Tenji, and the name Wenren was already taken by the child's maternal grandfather, Wenren.

After thinking it over, Li Xinghe came up with his own name:

“Zhongren”.

This is a name that has never been used before, but it would be too obvious to just put it in the name directly.

Which "中" are you referring to?

Is it the "Zhong" in "China"? The "Zhong" in "Central Plains"? Or the "Zhong" in "Sun Yat-sen"?

Therefore, both Deren and Wenren looked somewhat surprised. Was this an excessive revelation of Li Xinghe's policy objectives?

Even Naruhito sensed the thorny situation:

"The naming needs to be explained to the public, that would be..."

Li Xinghe said decisively:

"We must tell the people that this is the 'Zhong' in Sun Yat-sen's name, the 'Zhong' that belongs to the founder of the Greater East Asia Theory and the first pioneer of the Asian revolution. It is the commemorative character he used when he gave a speech at Kobe Girls' High School in 1924, when he proposed the 'Greater East Asia Theory.' We use this to prove the necessity of changing our path. There is no longer any need to continue to adhere to the one-sided pro-American policy."

Once these words were spoken, no one could stop them.

From the very act of naming his child, Li Xinghe was already preparing for a resurgence of East Asian nationalism. Of course, this also aligns with current global trends.

Several hours after the baby was born, Miss Yuzhi arrived at the Royal Hospital to take commemorative photos for everyone.

In this outrageous photo, Li Xinghe and Shang Qiujia sit in the middle, holding a newborn baby in their arms. The Imperial Family is only allowed to stand on the left, while Li Xinghe's family stands on the right. Li Xinghe's three mothers stand behind the seats, embracing each other. Among the crowd are his wife, Shika Yuchi, and his mistress, Aso Ayako. Even people like Mizukage Tenpei have come to join in the fun.

Then, that evening, Gao Tiaowuyue, acting as Li Xinghe's secretary and spokesperson, held a press conference at the Cabinet to inform everyone:

"Ladies and gentlemen, a royal heir has been born."

Then, Mayuki Takajo held up a large photo frame, just like Yoshihide Suga displayed the characters for "Reiwa," and showed the reporters a "group photo of everyone present."

When the shocking news spread and the newborn baby was born, Li Xinghe's plan to substitute one's own bloodline for another came into reality.

More than one right-wing extremist has suffered a mental breakdown and is drinking and drowning his sorrows in the streets.

It's not just one person who has come to realize reality and understands that times have changed.

Now is the time to revisit Sun Yat-sen.

Sun Yat-sen, Kobe Higher Women's University, and the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Principle of 1924 were tacitly included in the curriculum by the textbook editorial department as major historical events in modern Japan. They were placed alongside Lu Xun, who was as famous as Tagore and as one of the two great writers of Asia in the early 20th century, and identified as the source of ideas for cooperation among East Asian countries.

As for the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere mentioned in the "Konoe Proclamation" proposed by Fumimaro Konoe in 1938 when he was already being manipulated by the military and making irresponsible statements, it was naturally subject to severe criticism and regarded as a clumsy plagiarism of Sun Yat-sen's theories. Moreover, this thing itself was a slogan hastily introduced by the Konoe Cabinet at the time, and its implementation was completely different from what they had envisioned.

Naturally, they must also write in the appendix that "a community with a shared future for mankind" is the path of inheritance of Greater East Asia Diplomacy, and a path to build a deeper and broader future.

These are things that the organization department composed of left-wing communists would do on its own without Li Xinghe having to say a word.

The general outline has been defined, and even if some right-wing elements try to inject their own agendas, they cannot affect the overall trend. This is because privately written textbooks must also conform to the official guiding principles.

Of course, there's also something rather amusing: Kobe Women's Higher School, which was mentioned in the article, hastily claimed ownership of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Tarumi Ward, Kobe City, and went there to commemorate Sun Yat-sen. Meanwhile, Kobe University, located next door, urgently expelled the traitorous dog, Taro Ishihira, who had already died in the cargo hold of an American military plane.

Overnight, when Li Xinghe brought up Sun Yat-sen to discuss the new order in East Asia, major Japanese academic organizations seemed to wake up from a dream. They hurriedly began publishing a backlog of papers, arguing for the necessity of Sino-Japanese cooperation and East Asian cooperation to create a new order.

This is not because they have woken up from their dream, but because the political tide has finally reached a point where it supports this line of thought.

At least in the academic research community, many people have long wanted to do this. However, the information cocoon created by the media and public dissatisfaction have prevented many China enthusiasts from having any channels to promote themselves in the media. Even if they do get on the media, they can only say some bizarre and outrageous things, because they are not allowed to appear if they don't.

Many Japanese current affairs commentators believe that:

"Sun Yat-sen is a special common denominator between China and Japan, between the mainland and Taiwan, and between Taiwan and Japan. He was the first person to lead a revolution in Asia and the creator of the first republic in Asia to overthrow the imperial system."

If we don't mention Sun Yat-sen, there are no other figures who can represent cooperation. We can't exactly mention Ito Hirobumi or Hirota Koki, can we?

Taking advantage of Japan's current hype surrounding Sun Yat-sen, the Taiwanese representative has caught up.

Ayako Aso has a close relationship with Taiwan.

Because Taro Aso is a politician in Japanese politics who takes a pro-Taiwan stance, has a long history of factional cooperation, and it is well known that the Aso family has businesses with interests in Taiwan, they sent a letter to Ayako Aso requesting strengthened cooperation.

Coincidentally, Li Xinghe was also plotting to sabotage Taiwan.

So the following day, following the birth of the new imperial heir and the new prime minister, Ayako Aso, on behalf of the government and the imperial family, made a statement regarding the Taiwan Strait crisis:
