Chapter 454: The side who wants to rebel
There was a moment of silence in the office on the top floor, Shi Ying smiled weakly, and whispered: "Did I know the secrets of the Yan family, will I be wiped out?" ”
"If you weren't my wife, you'd be exterminated." Yan Muchen nodded, echoing the girl's joke.
"But now that you are the head mother of the Yan family, you have the right to know everything in the Yan family and the right to decide."
"The right to decide...... I'm a weak woman, what can I decide? ”
Shi Ying shook her head, not knowing that she just asked casually, why did she involve so many things.
Isn't her boss a ruthless man, why do she say whatever she asks, and she looks like she knows everything and says everything, she doesn't seem to be involved in this matter.
It's just that......
Knowing that someone wanted to seek power and usurp the throne, Shi Ying couldn't help frowning slightly, and whispered: "I remember that the reason why the Yan family is as strong as today is because of the direct bloodline, right?" The ancestor of the Yan family made great achievements for the emperor and was named a general to protect the country, and that military exploits were exchanged for his own blood and head by his direct bloodline. ”
Since then, the Yan family has entered a period of strength, but every time there is a war, the Yan family has to be pacified. It is said that the ancestors of the Yan family are brave and good at fighting, even after several changes of dynasty, the Yan family has always been strong, but the direct bloodline is getting less and less. ”
A hundred years ago, the direct bloodline had been reduced to a worrying level, and within a hundred years, it had experienced turmoil in Huaxia, so that only Yan Yihui and Yan Muchen, father and son, were left in the direct bloodline. The once powerful Yan family now has few direct bloodlines, but its power is several times that of the past, although there is a foundation laid by the ancestors with blood, the merits of Yan Yihui and Yan Muchen cannot be denied.
"If it's just because the direct blood is scarce, the side line has the idea of rebellion, which is really sad."
The so-called collateral lines are all people with foreign surnames who are dependent on the Yan family's direct lineage to survive, and they did not have the blood of the Yan family at the beginning, but slowly possessed the blood of the Yan family after generations of marriage. In order to better have a relationship with the direct bloodline of the Yan family, the side family married a daughter of the direct bloodline, and the children born will give them the surname Yan, and both men and women will be named parents, just to better have a relationship with the direct bloodline of the Yan family.
After hundreds of years of reproduction, the foreign clans that were once attached to the Yan family have gradually become collateral bloodlines, and they all have the surname of Yan, and there is more or less a bit of Yan family's blood in their bodies, which is called the collateral line of the Yan family.
In fact, for the direct bloodline, the collateral bloodline, etc., Shi Ying is not clear in the first place. However, she can more or less understand the situation of the Yan family.
For example, if the people who are blessed by the general marry the daughter of the general's family, they have the blood of the general's family. However, the children of the general's family are getting fewer and fewer, and those people who have been blessed want to turn the general's family property into their own, and want to kill the general's only remaining children and replace them as the new generals. Isn't this too much, Taien will take revenge?
Shi Ying pursed her lips, and a pair of ink-stained eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
She was angry for Yan Muchen and felt that it was not worth it, but she didn't notice that Yan Muchen was looking at her, and her narrow eyes were thinking.
After a while, Yan Muchen hid the doubts in his eyes, and didn't ask Shi Ying why he could casually tell the Yan family's secrets, but only asked in a low voice: "What does Ying'er think I should do, what should I do to deal with these side relatives who want to take revenge." ”
