The clan will continue.
Next, each family reported on their family's situation over the past year and discussed cooperation matters, but the heads of each family were already in a state of confusion at this moment.
After all matters were discussed, the hall became quiet again, and everyone knew that the main event would come next.
After being quiet for a long time, someone couldn't help coughing. Changsun Wentian said as if he had woken up: "Ah, are you finished? It seems that everyone has had a good year, so can we. Achieving mutual benefit and win-win results is the most important purpose of our clan association. Now that everyone has discussed it, let’s leave it at that and disperse, ah.”
After saying that, Changsun Wentian got up and left, leaving a table full of people with confused expressions.
"This old man is really good at pretending to be crazy and acting stupid." Siqin covered his mouth and whispered.
"Master, wait a minute, there seems to be no discussion about the clan meeting." Nangong Ao, who had been silent until now, saw that his eldest son, Sun Wentian, was about to leave, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Oh, does Xiao Ao have anything else to say?" Changsun Wentian turned around and looked at Nangong Ao.
"Master, the matter of this heir has been delayed for a long time. There should be a result today." Nangong Ao said as he looked at the eldest grandson Wentian.
Changsun Wentian's face immediately darkened after hearing this, and he looked at Nangong Ao without speaking for a long time.
Nangong Ao was not afraid and looked at Changsun Wentian.
After the two of them stared at each other for a long time, Changsun Wentian said, "What does deputy captain mean?"
"I think the heir issue cannot be delayed any longer. If there is no final decision, it will definitely cause instability in people's hearts. So I think the heir should be changed..."
"I asked you what you meant without letting you express your opinion. Is the deputy captain really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" Changsun Wentian interrupted before Nangong Ao finished speaking.
"This Nangong Ao is also acting like a fool. He knew what Changsun Wentian meant but deliberately made the matter clear so that Changsun Wentian could not avoid it." Siqin turned around and whispered to Yuqi.
"Master, I would like to take the liberty to advise you. I think what the deputy leader said is reasonable. The matter of the heir cannot be delayed any longer. I ask the master to consider it." Meng Zhi interrupted at this time.
"Meng Zhi was confused just now, but he is not confused now. This sentence comes at the right time." Siqin continued to whisper.
"You are not presumptuous, you are ignorant. There are many family heads here at today's meeting, how can you speak." Changsun Wentian looked at Meng Zhi and said.
Under the gaze of Changsun Wentian, Meng Zhi had no choice but to lower his head and retreat.
At this time Yue Chi stood up and said: "It is said that Skywalker is a highly disciplined army. Today I finally understand the reason for this. The head of the Changsun family is really strict with his subordinates. But as an outsider, I think what Deputy General Meng Zhi said is reasonable. .”
The head of the Yue family was resentful of the bad mistake of not rushing to defend the city. This was a good opportunity to add insult to injury, and at the same time show friendship in front of Nangong Ao, so he hurriedly spoke in front of everyone.
"You also said that you are an outsider, so it's better not to get involved, lest you get burned." Changsun Wentian had not yet looked down upon someone who was a transgressor, and he was not merciful when he spoke at this time.
Liu Yu, who had hesitated for a long time, was about to speak. Just as he was about to stand up, Changsun Wentian looked at him and said, "The Liu family just took over the city defense, so I'm afraid they don't have time to interfere with my family affairs."
The meaning of the words was very clear. Liu Yu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but finally did not get up.
Nangong Ao was not in a hurry when he saw this scene. Instead, he sat down leisurely and said meaningfully: "The head of the family is right. The Liu family is about to take over the task of city defense. I'm afraid they will be too busy to take care of themselves."
"The head of the family doesn't know. You have been ill and haven't been to the regiment for a long time. Your subordinates have limited abilities and have neglected the management of the people in the regiment. They have developed arrogance. Although the city defense is now under control, they are facing I'm very familiar with the city defense situation. I'm afraid I won't be able to control it, and there will always be a few who will cause trouble from time to time, which will really cause trouble to the Liu family." The threat in his words was clearly revealed.
After hearing this, Liu Yu struggled for a moment and sighed: "Master of the eldest grandson family, we should discuss the matter of heir."
With the Liu family taking the lead, the smaller families below naturally rushed to agree.
On the contrary, Changsun Wentian stopped talking at this time, and scanned everyone present with his squinted eyes, like a cheetah staring at its prey. The people present gradually did not dare to speak anymore, because Changsun Wentian was angry.
Changsun Wentian’s voice was low, “I have told you about my eldest grandson’s family affairs, so outsiders should not interfere.”
After saying this, the family who just spoke did not dare to speak anymore.
The meaning of the words was obvious. If he dared to speak again, he would probably anger Changsun Wentian. At this time, no one dared to show his head again.
However, there are always those who are not afraid of Changsun Wentian, such as the elders of the Changsun family.
The silent elders finally spoke, "Master, I agree with Deputy Head Nangong's proposal."
"I agree."
"Me too."
…
At this time, the elders who supported Nangong Ao spoke one after another, forcing Sun Wentian to re-elect his successor. However, Chang Sun Wentian's attitude seemed to be extremely firm this time. No matter who forced him, he would not speak.
When everyone stopped talking, Changsun Wentian looked at Nangong Ao who was leisurely standing by and said, "You are forcing me."
Nangong Ao stood up at this moment and said, "I don't dare."
"Don't forget how you got here today." Changsun Wentian said.
"I will always keep my master's kindness in supporting me in mind, but this is also for Skywalker and the eldest son's family." Nangong Ao said sincerely, with a sincere expression that moved people.
Changsun Wentian was unmoved, "You should know that they cannot be my master."
"It's not that we are forcing the head of the family, it's because of the situation that the head of the family must make a decision at this time." Nangong Ao's expression remained sincere.
"Okay, then I will tell you today, no one can touch the position of the eldest grandson!"
Changsun Wentian's momentum suddenly rose at this moment, making everyone startled. No one expected that Changsun Wentian would be so determined today.
Nangong Ao was also startled, but immediately returned to normal, and then sat down again leisurely and stopped talking.
Just when people thought that today's matter would be over.
The door of the meeting hall suddenly opened, and a trembling figure walked in with the support of a little boy.
"God, you are old. When it's time to let go, just let them do it and let the young people do it."
Mr. Zong is Changsun Wentian's uncle. He is the oldest in the Changsun family. He is the honorary elder of the Changsun family. He usually doesn't care about world affairs. I don't know why he is here today.
When Mr. Zong came to the venue, everyone stood up to say hello. The servants quickly brought chairs for Mr. Zong to sit down.
The presence of Elder Zong put Changsun Wentian in a bit of a dilemma. He could ignore the other elders, but he could not ignore what Elder Zong said.
"Elder Zong, if your legs and feet are inconvenient, you can rest well in the house. I won't bother you to come forward for these small things."
In Changsun's family, only Changsun Wentian is the only one who dares to call Changsun Wentian by his first name, and only Changsun Wentian is the only one who dares to call Changsun Wentian by name. Everyone else has to call him "ancestor" when they see him.
"When you are eating from Changsun's family, you have to worry about some things. God, you are not young anymore. It's time to rest." Elder Zong said.
"Elder Zong, you..." Changsun Wentian looked troubled.
"Ancestor, you are the one who has the longest lifespan, and you are the only one who is qualified to recuperate here." It was only then that the eldest grandson of the person involved stood up and spoke.
Although the attitude was respectful, everyone could hear the meaning behind the words, which was to let Mr. Zong rest and stop mixing in things that shouldn't be mixed up.
No one expected that Changsun would dare to interrupt at this time, including Nangong Ao.
"Changsun, please don't interrupt when adults are talking and children are talking." Nangong Ao said.
The eldest grandson still spoke calmly, "My grandfather just said that as an outsider, you should not get involved in the affairs of our eldest grandson's family."
Nangong proudly said with a smile; "Outsiders? If your father is here, you have to call me uncle now."
The eldest grandson fired back: "If my father is here, then you have to call him the master of the family."
"You..." The eldest grandson's father had always suppressed Nangong Ao when he was here. This has always been a sore point for Nangong Ao. Now that the eldest grandson pointed it out, he became a little angry.
"Okay, eldest grandson, don't mess around anymore. Family laws and regulations teach you to speak no matter how big or small." Elder Zong said at this time.
"It seems that our ancestors are really old and confused. If you talk about family laws and regulations, let me tell you about them. Family laws stipulate that clan affairs should be discussed by the heads of each family and their heirs. I, the heir, didn't say anything. "Deputy leader, do you think he has the right to speak? As for the ancestor, you are just an honorary elder. The family law does not stipulate what the honorary elder can decide." Changsun responded.
At this moment, Nangong Ao was so angry with his eldest grandson that he was about to explode.
"What's going on with the eldest grandson? Didn't he offend Nangong Ao and Zong Lao by talking like this? I didn't think he was such a reckless person before." Yu Qi whispered to Siqin.
"You haven't noticed yet. Changsun did this on purpose." Siqin replied.
"What do you mean by this, Miss? Yu Qi doesn't understand it again." Yu Qi asked.
"Now that Changsun has been forced by Nangong Ao and others with no way out, he can only confront them tit for tat. At this time, it is very important to disrupt their position first." Siqin explained.
Yuqi seemed to understand and said: "Miss, do you mean that the eldest grandson deliberately angered Nangong Ao?"
"Yes, and it was successful. He knows very well what Nangong Ao's pain points are. If Nangong Ao can't help but attack his eldest grandson, then Nangong Ao will completely lose, and we can just watch the show." Siqin replied.
