The next day, the Chen family announced the marriage of Xinluo and Xinran. The date was set for the sixth day of the next month, which was still more than twenty days away.
After receiving this news, everyone on Cuiyun Peak was also pleasantly surprised.
Because this day is fixed, then everything is fixed, including the time when Chen Hongyuan will succeed as the head of the family.
However, none of the Chen family's children know yet that Chen Hongyuan is about to succeed as the head of the family.
But today, all the elders of the Chen family and several masters of the head family, even Chen Hongxing, Chen Hongyuan and some Chen family members with higher prestige of the Chen family, were all called to the Yuhua Palace by the head of the family.
But when everyone entered the main hall, they discovered that the person sitting in the main seat today was not the head of the family, Chen Tianxing, but an old man.
Some people may be confused when they see this old man, but when several people with the highest status see this old man, they all respectfully walk in front of him to pay their respects.
"I've met my ancestor!"
"I've seen the ancestor!" And those who didn't know the old man, when they heard that he was the ancestor, they dared to neglect him and hurried forward to pay their respects.
"Well, sit down when you're here. I asked Tian Xing to call everyone here today, mainly because I have two things to announce!" Chen Hongning nodded and said to everyone below.
In front of the ancestor, no one dared to interrupt, but everyone was confused.
I don’t know what is so important that the ancestor will appear here in person.
I heard Chen Hongning continue to say: "The first thing is the marriage between Chen Xinran and Xinluo. I already discussed it with Chen Tianxing yesterday, and the time is set to be on the sixth day of next month. You must have heard the news today!"
Everyone was a little confused. They never thought that Chen Xinran and Xinluo's marriage would alarm their ancestors, and a date was specially chosen for them.
Some elders who originally had opinions on this matter suddenly didn't know what to do.
After all, they are also the elders of the Chen family. They feel that Chen Tianxing directly decides on the time without consulting them. This is not taking everyone seriously.
But now that they know it was the ancestor who made the decision, everyone can only suppress their dissatisfaction. Even if they are dissatisfied, do they still dare to argue with the ancestor?
"However, what I am mainly talking about today is the second thing, which affects the future of the Chen family!" Chen Hongning continued.
Everyone took a breath immediately, and the atmosphere became tense. They didn't understand what the ancestor meant by this, but it might not be related to the Chen family.
Especially Chen Hongxing, when he saw Chen Hongyuan smiling at him, his heart tightened. Could it be the thing he was most worried about?
If this was the case, with so many Chen family bosses here, he might not be able to escape.
He couldn't help but tighten his fists. If Chen Hongyuan really told his ancestor, he would have no choice but to rush out from here, otherwise he might die here.
"Ancestor, I don't know what it is, and I need you to announce it in person!" the great elder asked.
He had just received news from the back mountain that something had happened to their ancestor Chen Xiude.
When I asked the messenger what was going on, he only said one sentence: He was crippled.
But when he asked who was deposed, the messenger didn't tell him, which made him very upset.
Because the back mountain is where all the ancestors of the Chen family live, except for some people with special status in the Chen family, no one can enter the back mountain of the Chen family, not even the disciples of the Chen family.
Chen Xiude has not left the back mountain for many years, but now he is deposed. Is it because he did something wrong and was deposed by the more noble ancestors in the back mountain?
If so, will this affect them?
Now I see Chen Hongning coming out of the back mountain and summoning everyone to the parliament so seriously. This shows that the problem here is very serious.
Therefore, he was very nervous and worried. He was afraid that Chen Xiude had really done something to harm the Chen family, which would lead to such a disaster.
"I have decided to let Chen Hongyuan succeed the head of the Chen family on the day that Xinran and Xinluo get married. I will send people to notify the eight major families to attend the succession ceremony of the new head of the family!" Chen Hongning said loudly.
boom!
As soon as the news came out, everyone in the hall, except Chen Hongyuan and Chen Tianxing, felt that their brains exploded at this moment.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically. It all happened so fast that it even exceeded everyone's imagination.
With Chen Hongning's serious expression just now, everyone realized that something big was indeed happening today, but they didn't expect it to be this.
Chen Hongxing felt like he was going crazy. He thought it was Chen Hongyuan who told what happened to him back then. He even planned to forcefully rush out of the hall as soon as the ancestor finished speaking.
But just when his thigh was about to move, he almost fell to the ground.
"How is this possible? The ancestor actually directly appointed the next head of the Chen family. Why is this happening?" Chen Hongxing's face was uncertain.
He was completely confused about the situation now. Things had changed too fast, even beyond his expectation. He was completely confused for a while.
He looked at Chen Hongyuan, then at Chen Tianxing and Chen Hongning. He could not understand why Chen Hongyuan suddenly became the new head of the Chen family.
"Could it be that Chen Hongyuan told the ancestor about that matter, so the ancestor passed the position of the head of the family to him? Then will something happen to me? Will the ancestor still cause trouble for me?" At this moment, Chen Hongxing didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.
What should be laughed at is that regardless of whether what he did to Chen Hongyuan was exposed or not, the ancestor didn't seem to have any intention of punishing him.
But what should be cried is that he suddenly and inexplicably lost his position as the head of the Chen family. Over the years, he had made a lot of preparations to get this position.
I never expected that I would lose it all at once. It was too fast.
It was so fast that he didn't seem to know what it felt like. Perhaps he became numb all of a sudden, so numb that he didn't feel anything at all.
"Ancestor, the current head of the family is still young and has not yet reached the stage of overcoming the tribulation. Why is the head of the family suddenly changed?" As the great elder, he still has the right to ask questions, even if he is facing the ancestor at this moment.
In fact, this is also the doubt in the minds of everyone present. They don't understand why the head of the family is suddenly changed, and the person who is replaced is not the first heir, but the second heir.
Although Chen Hongyuan has made amazing achievements in the past few years, he is still far from the point where he can directly become the head of the Chen family, right?
