Chapter 292: The new head of the Chen family
This voice of support for Chen Xiaotian came from the second son.
As soon as he finished shouting, the second son walked out of the crowd.
The Great Elder, who had already gotten up from the ground, saw the second son walk out, his face suddenly changed, and immediately, he scolded the second son: "Who told you to talk nonsense, you give me down!"
In the past, the second prince listened to the words of the great elder very much, and he did not dare to disobey his majestic grandfather, but today, in the face of the great elder's reprimand, the second prince did not flinch, he continued to insist: "I do support Chen Xiaotian's approach, the matter of fratricidal brothers is too ridiculous, this rule should be abolished!"
The second son was cultivated in the capital since he was a child, he can be regarded as having seen the world, his ability is also excellent, he has always thought that he has the ability to be the head of the Chen family, but in the end, he failed, and even almost was killed, if it wasn't for Chen Xiaotian who stopped the fourth prince at that time, the second son would have died in this Chen family's broken rules.
The second prince was grateful to Chen Xiaotian in his heart, and at the same time, because of this incident, he was very disgusted with the situation of fratricide, or rather, from the beginning, he never thought about killing his own brother, he wanted to be the head of the family, but he didn't have to kill other brothers to achieve this goal. However, some people can use unscrupulous means to harm their loved ones in order to sit on the position of the head of the family.
Therefore, the second son bravely stood up and opposed this system.
After the second son's voice fell, another person stood up and said, "I also support Chen Xiaotian." β
This is the little son of the Chen family, the little son is still young, just turned eighteen years old, he is basically forced to participate in the family's battle for succession, and he is not experienced enough, his ability is obviously weaker than other brothers, if he is unlucky, he will only become a victim of the battle for succession, he can save a life this time, it is already lucky. Although he is not directly linked to Chen Xiaotian, he is kind-hearted, and he rejects the system of fratricide from the bottom of his heart, so he supports Chen Xiaotian.
Next, more and more people stood up and supported Chen Xiaotian.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaotian couldn't help but feel heroic emotions in his heart, he was pleased, if everyone in the Chen family was against him, then Chen Xiaotian really didn't want to change the rules toughly, but now, when he found that there were so many like-minded people in the Chen family, Chen Xiaotian instantly saw great hope, and he immediately said to Chen Hongguang solemnly: "See, not all Chen family members recognize this rule." β
Chen Hongguang was stunned now, he really didn't expect that there were so many people in the Chen family who opposed the rules set by the ancestors, and this situation made him stunned.
After a long while, he sighed resignedly and muttered to himself: "It seems that I am really old, the Chen family still depends on these young people in the future, I should take care of my old age." β
When Chen Hongguang said this, it seemed to mean that he had compromised.
However, Chen Xinghai didn't want to do this, he was still stubborn, and after listening to Chen Hongguang's words, he hurriedly persuaded him: "Father, you can't let Chen Xiaotian mess up the family rules, this is the inheritance of our Chen family!"
Chen Hongguang looked at Chen Xinghai with a deep face, and asked rhetorically: "According to the rules, Chen Xiaotian is the next head of the family, why don't you refuse to admit his identity?"
This simple sentence made Chen Xinghai choked. Indeed, if Chen Xiaotian violated the rules of the Chen family, then Chen Xinghai himself could be regarded as not acting according to the rules of the family.
After pondering for a few seconds, Chen Xinghai spoke again: "I'm thinking about the future of the family. β
Chen Hongguang said lightly: "Isn't that family thinking about the future of the family?"
Chen Hongguang originally insisted that only by developing according to the old rules will the Chen family stably maintain the status of the first family in China, but he also knows that Chen Xiaotian's words are not unreasonable, if the Chen family abolishes the old rules, according to the new methods of young people, it will not necessarily decline, as long as young people are willing to work hard, the family members make progress together and unite as one, the Chen family will not fall easily, no matter what, Chen Xiaotian advocates the abolition of the rules, but also for the sake of the family, Chen Hongguang finally compromised, just because, he wanted to give Chen Xiaotian a chanceγ
Chen Xinghai wanted to say something more, but Chen Hongguang didn't give him a chance, he spoke directly: "Okay, don't say it, the position of the head of the Chen family, let Chen Xiaotian take over, and the rules of the Chen family will be decided by him and the elders." β
After saying this, Chen Hongguang left the scene.
Although Chen Xinghai is the current head of the Chen family, Chen Hongguang is more respected in the Chen family, he is the most vocal, he has the most right to speak, he said that Chen Xiaotian will take over, and no one in the Chen family will object.
Even if Chen Xinghai doesn't agree, he can't help it.
Therefore, he could only announce in a deep voice that from now on, Chen Xiaotian would be officially appointed as the new head of the Chen family.
No one in the audience objected.
Chen Xiaotian finally got his wish, but he was not happy at all, or rather, this result only satisfied him, but did not surprise him, after ascending to the throne of the head of the family, he did not participate in those formalized things, did not go up to the process, he ran directly to Gao Qin's side, and checked his mother's injury.
Gao Qin was very seriously injured, but fortunately, there was no worry about his life, and Chen Xiaotian immediately shouted: "Come and save people." β
In the Chen family manor, all kinds of facilities are available, including medical institutions, and after Chen Xiaotian finished shouting, Gao Qin was immediately taken into the medical room for treatment.
After making sure that Gao Qin was safe, Chen Xiaotian immediately began to implement the reforms within the Chen family.
As the new head of the Chen family, Chen Xiaotian now has the absolute right to speak, saying that he is talking about discussing with the elders of the Chen family, but his decision, the elders do not dare to argue now, after Chen Xiaotian took office, the first thing is to abolish the old rules of the Chen family.
The 30-year general election of the head of the Chen family was officially abolished from this point on.
From now on, the Chen family does not have the problem of raising children, and there is no fratricide, Chen Xiaotian believes that the most important thing for a family is to unite as one, work together, make progress together, and continue to strive for the prosperity of the family.
Now is the new era, Chen Xiaotian's concept has been supported and responded to by the vast majority of young people in the Chen family, and the older generation, there are also many supporters, and those who are dissatisfied have not spoken out against it.
The Chen family was greatly innovated by Chen Xiaotian.
Under Chen Xiaotian's leadership, within a month, the Chen family was completely new.
A month later, Chen Xiaotian held a family meeting, at which Chen Xiaotian solemnly announced one thing, he withdrew from the position of head of the Chen family, and handed over the position of the new head of the Chen family to the little son of the Chen family.
This decision shocked everyone in the Chen family.
This was something that no one expected.
However, this is the result of Chen Xiaotian's careful consideration, from beginning to end, Chen Xiaotian has no intention of power and status, he has never wanted to have anything to do with the Chen family, he doesn't want to be the head of the family, and finally he wants to ascend to the position of the head of the family, just to change the rules of the Chen family, in order to be able to free himself from the shackles of the Chen family, now, what he wants to do has been completed, he will not be persecuted by the Chen family in the future, and there will be no hidden dangers, so he simply let go and go back to the free life he wants.
As for why he chose Xiao Gongzi to take over, this is mainly because Xiao Gongzi has the most upright character, and, unlike others, Xiao Gongzi does not have the heart to compete for fame and fortune at all, he is not desperate to be the head of the family, but he has the ability to govern the family and has great room for development, because of this, Chen Xiaotian believes that this person will take care of the Chen family when he becomes the head of the family.
The rules of the Chen family have changed, and the next head of the family is no longer decided by the battle for succession once in thirty years, but by the current head of the family, brothers, sons and nephews.
Therefore, even if everyone can't understand Chen Xiaotian's decision, there is no way to refute it.
After Chen Xiaotian gave up the position of head of the family to the little son, he didn't have any requirements for the little son, he only hoped that his mother could be taken care of.
The little boy solemnly promised Chen Xiaotian.
After the handover of the head of the family, Chen Xiaotian took one last look at his mother, and then he resolutely left the Chen family and left Jinling.
