If you mention the Japanese Imperial Family, "Miyauchi Agency" is probably also a very high-rate word, and it is curious to know what kind of institution "Miyauchi Agency" is. Why do they have so much power?
In fact, the "Imperial Household Agency" is an institution under the control of the Japanese prime minister, but it is indeed different from other government agencies, because it is mainly responsible for taking care of the emperor and the imperial family, as well as managing all the affairs of the imperial family, in short, eating, drinking, and sleeping are managed by them.
"Even the prime minister cannot speak directly to the emperor without the permission of the Ministry of Internal Affairs," said one LDP member who opposed the succession of women to the throne.
Therefore, in the Japanese imperial family, the "Imperial Household Agency" has great power.
It is well known that Princess Aiko was the daughter of Emperor Naruhito, but as a daughter she did not have the right to inherit the throne.
In the Japanese imperial family, there is a deep-rooted idea of "male superiority over female inferiority".
Prince Yuhito, who was a contemporary of Princess Aiko, was the only person in their generation who had the right to inherit the throne, and sometimes the Imperial Household Hall would watch the wind and steer the rudder, after all, the future of the imperial family was in the hands of Prince Youren and not in the hands of Princess Aiko.
It goes without saying that even the royal family, known for its frugality, needs brand names to package itself in order to maintain the face and dignity of the royal family.
In August 2013, Princess Aiko was attending a royal event carrying a handbag of a certain brand, which was worth about 2,000 yuan at the time.
It is precisely such a move that has aroused the insults and doubts of the people, and even some people have questioned why Princess Aiko cannot buy "domestic products", and her behavior is unpatriotic.
Although Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko did not comment too much on the matter, Akihito did disappoint their granddaughter by this behavior, said an official of the Imperial Household Agency.
The media, which is good at seeing the wind and making the rudder, even added fuel to the matter and published an article signed "Masako's View of Money".
The article believes that the reason why Princess Aiko has such a "luxurious" idea is entirely influenced by her mother, Princess Masako.
The text also strongly praised the frugal behavior of Michiko and Princess Noriko, and it is said that the article quoted a lot of words from the officials of the Imperial Household Agency, and the article was full of hostility to Princess Aiko.
But is the Naruhito family really so extravagant and wasteful compared to Akihito and Fumihito?
In fact, neither Michiko nor Noriko nor Masako had the opportunity to go out shopping.
They have little freedom of movement, and where they go not only need to be reported after layers of scrutiny, but also have to be monitored by someone behind them.
Before Naruhito took the throne, Princess Masako liked to choose high-quality clothing to decorate herself, but this was only a necessary choice as a crown princess, and it was said that Empress Michiko's clothing budget would be controlled at about one million yuan.
However, the most extravagant person should actually be the Qiu Shinobu palace family, the former palace official revealed.
In recent years, the Imperial Household Agency will customize the Suit of the Italian Luxury Brand for Prince Youren, and as the future of the royal family, the Imperial Household Agency has customized three sets of tailor-made suits for him, and these costs are about 110,000 yuan.
It is said that a tie of Prince Youren cost about 1,900 yuan, which caused unnecessary waste.
Since Prince Yujin is in his prime, his body is changing every year, so tailor-made clothes also mean that they will be re-customized the next year.
Or for the Imperial Household Agency, spending 2,000 yuan on Princess Aiko caused a great waste, and paying 110,000 yuan for Prince Yujin's suit would not be painful at all.
The same thing will bring about different reactions when placed on Princess Aiko and Prince Yujin, and it seems that the Japanese Imperial Household Agency is really a "double standard dog" that "lives up to its name".
