My decision caused an uproar within our circle, and was opposed by almost everyone, even my wife, who could not understand it for a while. After all, this matter started because of me, and it has been planned and operated for hundreds of years, and even some clansmen have experienced several generations of changes, and many people regard this time I can compete for the head of the family and be successfully elected, as the greatest hope for themselves and even their own small family to turn over, and now I actually proposed to withdraw at the most critical point, in their opinion, there is a feeling that the sky is about to fall. Many people were outraged, many were terrified, and some radicals pointed the finger at my son, believing that I was the only one because he was born.

For my camp's self-disordered position, other competitors are happy to see, although everyone is of the same race, but in the face of interests the bloodline seems so pale and powerless, some competitors have long been dissatisfied with my dark horse that has been killed out of the sky, and now, we are in chaos here, they began to take advantage of the fire to rob, digging corners, telling right and wrong, taking the opportunity to slander, all kinds of means come out, there is only one purpose, that is, to completely destroy me, let me completely quit.

I endured all this, because I had foreseen such an outcome, and even had several arguments with my wife for this, and I sent their mother and son back to their mother's house in a fit of anger, so that I could bear all the wind and rain alone, and I would not let them be affected in any way, and I planned to leave the family after the replacement of the old and new heads of the family was completed, and take their mother and son away. Moreover, I have distributed all the wealth I have accumulated over the years to my supporters to compensate for the losses caused to them by my withdrawal. The tree is falling and scattering, my big flag is about to fall, and some people have begun to find another way out, but most people still have a little luck with me, thinking that I am only temporarily blinded by lard, and I will change my mind, so some people, especially some old people, still have not given up on persuading me. Every time I saw the earnest eyes of these people, my heart was also a little unbearable, but I really didn't have that kind of ambition, and finally one day, I suddenly thought, since I plan to live an indifferent life, can I also take them with me? So, I communicated my thoughts privately with some old people who have always been loyal to me, but I didn't expect that some people expressed their willingness to go with me. This is really the best explanation I can think of for everyone, so on the one hand, I asked these old people to solicit the opinions of other clansmen, and on the other hand, I reported my thoughts to the head of the family and the elder council behind it, and proposed that the current development trend of the family is so strong, I can't say that I will go out of the current city in the future, and I am willing to go to the front station first, and try to lead the clansmen to open up a new territory. This proposal was naturally supported by most of the family leaders, who had already had the idea of expanding externally, but there was no suitable candidate for the time being. Moreover, my proposal also made some people feel that there was a threat of one less competing owner, and they were naturally happy. This matter was put on the agenda, and the family even began to help me prepare some necessary resources, which can be regarded as an affirmation and support for my courage to expand my territory.

But at this moment, my wife suddenly received urgent news from her mother's house, saying that our son had suddenly contracted a strange disease, which frightened me, and I hurried over, and when I came to my wife's house, I saw a different scene: our children were still dancing without a single sign, but my wife was as old as if she had been through some pain, and I could not think about why she had lied to me to come to their house, and hastened to ask her what had happened. But she cried so miserably that she would never tell me why. When I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, my father-in-law, the third elder of their family, appeared, took me to a secret room, and said something to me that made me feel like I had been struck by lightning:

Originally, he married his daughter to me, and his ultimate purpose was to be optimistic about my growth, and he planned to use me to lead our family astray after I sat as the head of the family in the future, so that their family would become bigger and stronger, so as to truly become the real overlord of the city where our two families were.

It was with this mission that my wife first approached me and eventually married me, and the reason why she has done so much to help me achieve the position of head of the family over the years is also due to the direction of their own family. But as the relationship between the two of us warmed up day by day, she became more and more unbearable to hurt me, and for this reason she has always been very conflicted, living in pain all the time. It just so happened that after the birth of our son, my mind suddenly changed and extinguished the original fire of ambition, and she was actually the happiest when she knew it, but on the surface, she couldn't show it, otherwise she would be disloyal to her family. When the news of my not wanting to fight for the head of the family was reported back to their family, she was under a lot of pressure from her family, and her family wanted her to do whatever it took to make me change her mind.

My wife has always been against the family, she tried her best to persuade me to change my mind on the surface, but in my heart she was firm in the idea of staying away from disputes with me, she naturally knew that the family would not only arrange for her to complete such an important thing alone, there must be other arrangements, so she even did not hesitate to fall out with me in our house for this reason, and I "drove back" to my mother's house, wanting to give the family an explanation, not that she did not do her best, but that I was too domineering and stubborn.

Originally, she thought that when she returned home, the pressure should be less, but she didn't expect that the upper echelons of their family would be even more dissatisfied with her because of this, thinking that she did not do her best to complete the tasks assigned by the family, and even my father-in-law was implicated, and was considered to have been rebelled by our family, so he dismissed his position as an elder, and also examined my wife for this matter.

This time, I falsely reported that my son was sick in order to bring me to my father and daughter, and to promise a treasure in return. You know, a treasure can be regarded as a family heirloom for a family like us, and I don't know why their family has to invest so much. Of course, in addition to the promise of profit, threats are also indispensable, their family has calculated my weakness, so they use my son as a threat to me, my father-in-law said that if I do not comply, they will hide my son, so that I will never see him again, and even, he also vaguely said that it is possible that my son's life will be in danger.

It can be seen that my father-in-law still cares about his daughter very much, so when he talks to me about this, his expression is also very painful, and he naturally stands on the position of his family to persuade me to obey, and asks me how I can bear to see my wife suffer such torture, and how can I ignore the safety of my own flesh and blood.

I listened to my father-in-law's words, and in addition to shock, there was also anger, I was deceived for so long by the person I believed most in the same bed for hundreds of years. At that time, I did lose my mind, although I was already planning to fade out of the family, but after all, I was a member of the family, when the family was in danger, I naturally had to stand on the side of my family without hesitation, so I refused my father-in-law's proposal without thinking about it, and I also solemnly reprimanded their family for using such despicable means.

After hearing my answer, my father-in-law did not get angry, but laughed miserably, and said, "Do you think that since our family wants to attack your family, how can you be the only one?" Moreover, since I can have such an open and honest showdown with you today, and you do not give us a satisfactory answer, they will let you leave easily and expose their schemes? If you don't agree today, it will be impossible for you to leave here, so you better think about it, and after saying that, he left me alone in the secret room, and asked me to think carefully about the consequences, not for myself, but also for my wife and children.

After he left, I was really lost in thought, and I thought about a lot of questions to find a solution that would have the best of both worlds. However, such a method does not seem to exist at all. During this time, my wife also came to visit me, and of course, she was also forced by her family to come to "persuade me to surrender". However, she showed me her heart, saying that she was sorry for me in the past and should not hide and use me, but she really loved me sincerely, and looking at her increasingly haggard face, my heart hurt more than a knife. For a moment, I almost gave up my inner resistance, but in the end, reason and loyalty to my family prevailed over emotion, and I finally held back.

The turning point came on the fifth day after I arrived at my wife's family, my wife knew that I would never change my mind, and she didn't want our son to be implicated because of this, she secretly escaped with our son, maybe she has always been very obedient to the family's arrangement, so that the family is not overly vigilant about her, and this matter naturally has the help of her father, the son's grandfather still loves him very much, and has always regarded him as a treasure in the palm of his hand. In this way, their family naturally became angry, and on the one hand, they sent people to chase after my wife and children in order to arrest them, and on the other hand, they sent high-ranking monks to arrest me and imprison me, so that I could not escape again and expose their family's sinister plans, and at the same time, they also spread rumors that I coveted one of their family's treasures, stole it from others, and issued a search warrant for the matter, and also informed our family of the matter in a serious manner.

This time, it naturally caused an uproar, and a bloody storm began.
