Chu family

Tangzhou Haoqiang, one of the Qing'an families, the birthplace of Chu Ge, was founded by Chu Ge's grandfather Chu Haoran.

As a giant in the fields of new energy vehicles and shipping in Tangzhou, the founder of Longteng Group not only has abundant funds, extensive contacts, but also a must-have.

In just half a year after being listed, it has successively defeated Tangzhou giants such as Haibo and Honghui, and once occupied the top of Tangzhou's new energy list, which is an unshakable prehistoric giant crocodile!

In addition, the 2,000-acre area and the strong political status are also one of the reasons for the longevity of the big tree of the Chu family.

In the past few years, although the family has been fighting openly and secretly, and is also in conflict with the outside world, it has experienced countless winds and waves and "changed the dynasty", but at least the foundation of the family is still there.

But two years ago, with the departure of the second-generation head of the family, Chu Haoran, and Chu Jianbi taking power, the family has not been at peace for a day, and has been in dire straits.

The whole family formed a party for personal gain, violated the upper yang and the yin, and practiced favoritism and fraud for the lower levels, with clear factions, competing for interests from top to bottom, and no longer had the same demeanor as before.

Now, after Chu Jianbi's disappearance, the debate about the position of the head of the family has begun.

......

The main hall of the Chu family, the hall of heroes.

"Everyone, according to the information we have obtained, Chu Jianbi has died unexpectedly, according to the family rules, the next head of the family should be Chu Haoran's daughter Chang Yingxi!"

In the main hall, a middle-aged man with a deep breath said loudly

This person's name is Chu Binggong, and he is Chu Haoran's elder brother and one of the elders of the Chu family. Back then, Chu Haoran traveled south and north and spent half his life to establish the Chu family, and the hardships of the road were indispensable to his help.

According to the regulations of the Chu family, if the head of the family dies, is innocently missing, or the term of office has expired, his son will inherit the position of the head of the family.

Now, Chu Haoran and his wife have left the country, Chu Jianbi is dead, Chu Ge is exiled to the dark world, and Chang Yingxi should inherit the position of the head of the family, which is also reasonable, in line with the rules of the family, but ......

"I disagree!"

In the audience, a man with a yellowish face slapped the table and stood up

"According to the family rules of our Chu family, if the head of the family dies or leaves office, the next head of the family will be his heir, but Chu Jianbi's son is Chu Jinyu, if it comes to succession, it will not be her turn to Chang Yingxi!"

Hearing this, Chu Binggong looked down

This person's face is yellowish, his body is thin, and he is nearly seven feet tall like a withered branch, but his eyes are firm, and his body reveals a strong momentum from the inside out, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

He is Chu Binggong's nephew, the deputy of the Chu family's Praetorian Guard, Chu Xingxiong!

Seeing that it was his nephew who openly opposed him, Chu Binggong was a little surprised.

According to the family rules, Chang Yingxi can take over the position of the next head of the family, although Chu Jinyu also belongs to the lineage, he is not the son of the head of the family. ”

Hearing this, several elders and other high-ranking family members in the audience looked over one after another.

"Xing Xiong, the previous head of the family was Chu Haoran, according to the family rules, his heirs will inherit the position of the head of the family, but you are openly opposed, do you want to abandon the rules of the family!"

A hot-tempered elder slapped the table and shouted

The other elders also frowned slightly, quite unhappy, but in the face of the opinions of the clan elders, Chu Xingxiong did not give in much, but instead let out his momentum and faced his uncle.

"Uncle, you also said that according to the family rules, he will be succeeded by his heirs, but the previous head of the family is Uncle Chu Jianbi, Chu Haoran disappeared two years ago and left the Chu family forever, according to the family rules, there should be a cousin Chu Jinyu as the head of the Chu family!"

As soon as this remark came out, it caused quite a stir.

"Impossible! Chu Jianbi is only temporary, not the official head of the Chu family!"

"That's right! Although Chu Haoran was eager to find a son and left the Chu family to go to the Bermuda Triangle, at least his influence is still there, and the family has always recognized him, Chu Jianbi is only in custody, and is not recognized by us!"

"Chu Haoran's son Chu Ge was exiled to the dark world of Europe, in that gray area where there is wolf smoke everywhere and there is no law and order, he may have passed away a long time ago, but Chang Yingxi is still there, and she should take over!"

......

The elders of the Chu family discussed a lot, and they all had a negative attitude towards Chu Xingxiong's words

Chu Binggong's face was even more gloomy, and he was very unhappy with his nephew.

Chu Jinyu, the son of Chu Jianbi and the elder brother of Chu Ge, as a representative figure of the young generation of the Chu family, went to study at the Imperial College of London at a young age with excellent results, and returned to China three years later to embark on a career in office.

He has been continuously promoted in the political circles for his outstanding performance, and so far, at the age of more than 20, he has become a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the secretary of the Lanning Municipal Party Committee, which is the pride of the Chu family!

When he thought of that young man who was young and had a heart for the city, he felt a faint sense of pressure as the patriarch of the family.

"Chu Xingxiong, although Chu Jinyu is very good, he is the pride of our family, and in some places, he represents the façade of our Chu family, but according to the rules of the family, he cannot succeed the head of the family...... Uncle!"

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Xingxiong interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and this sentence is the same in our Chu family!"

"Although Uncle Chu Haoran is the head of the family that we love and fear, after all, he left here at the most difficult time for our Chu family!

Although Uncle Chu Jianbi is only temporary, under his leadership, our Chu family has gone through difficulties again and again, and has gone through countless dark years, even in a desperate situation, it is he who takes us to look up at the sky without flinching!"

With that, he left his seat and walked around the main hall

"Whether it is in terms of ability, help to us, etc., he has been diligent and diligent, working hard for the Chu family, so that we did not flinch at the moment when we were surrounded by enemies and the family was in turmoil, and did his best to fight the family's world!"

"It can be said that without him, there would be no current Chu family! But now, the head of the family has been missing for many days, and the first thing you think about in your hearts is not to do your best to find him, but to discuss the next head of the family, not Chu Jinyu!"

Speaking of this, he almost pointed to the noses of several elders

The people sitting in the audience were all elder-level figures, the same generation as Chu Binggong, and being reprimanded by Chu Xingxiong like this can be said to have thrown their faces on the ground and stepped on them!

Sure enough, an elder was angry and just slapped the table and stood up and was about to argue with him, but was pressed down by Chu Binggong.

"Chu Jianbi, we all see the merits that he has done for the Chu family in the past few years, but the reason why Chu Ge, the son of Chu Haoran, was exiled to the dark world of Europe is inseparable from Chu Jianbi.

Moreover, during his reign, he wanted to erase Chu Haoran's status several times, and often slandered Chu Haoran in public, I believe this, don't you know it?"

These words were categorical, making the waists of the elders behind him straight, but there were also many family elders who were more supportive of Chu Jianbi

"What Binggong said is inappropriate!"

Elder Chu Xiong stepped forward

"No one is perfect, no one is perfect, in a great hero, there will be some black spots in his life, not to mention that compared with the merits made by Lord Jianbi, those black spots can even be ignored. ”

"That's right! Another clan elder stepped forward

"Metabolism is not only the patent of our human beings, but also the needs of the family and the country! If we want our Chu family to prosper, we must eliminate some tumors in the family!"

"Running water does not rot, and the secret of the family's enduring existence is to reform the old and eliminate the new, and the departure of Chu Haoran's father and son may also prove this truth!"

"The original intention of the family rules is also for the development of the family, if there is a better way of development, even if it does not follow the family rules, why not? We don't want to be too feudal, anyway, I support him!"

......

In the palace of the Chu family, the two major factions are distinct.

Chu Binggong saw everything in his eyes, and although he said that he supported Chu Haoran's side, in the face of everyone's resistance, he was secretly weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

"Chu Ge died in the West, Chu Haoran's family has been scattered, Chang Yingxi is a female 20-year-old, not long after she became an adult, she has been trapped in Tangzhou for several years and does not understand the way of family management, and she will marry Wei Changqing, the prince of the Wei family, soon. ”

He groped his chin and continued to think

"Although Chu Jinyu is not a formal descendant, he also has a lot of energy, and he has a lot of development prospects in the political circles, if he can be the helmsman of the Chu family, the Chu family will inevitably show a blowout growth! On the other hand, Chang Yingxi is not as good as him, except for the congenital conditions, there are not many advantages, and it cannot make the Chu family flourish. ”

Looking at the elders who were faintly divided into two camps under the stand, he thought secretly in his heart

"People asked me on the third day of the official year, and I asked people on the third day of leaving the official, in all fairness, Chu Haoran's contribution to the Chu family was far greater than Chu Jianbi's, and he was the one who really thought about the family.

But now, things are wrong, in order to find Chu Ge, he has left the Chu family, and he doesn't know when he will come back, or even come back at all!"

"The elders who originally supported him only had two or three big cats and kittens left, and the rest were also hesitant, and Chu Jianbi cultivated a lot of henchmen during his reign, winning the hearts of the people, and the Chu family was all in charge of everything, and the strength of the two sides was obviously unequal.

If Chang Yingxi is really allowed to succeed him, not only will the original people of Chu Haoran's line be finished, but I am afraid that I will not even be able to guarantee the position of the patriarch! Who can guarantee that Chu Jinyu will not change!"

Thinking about this, he was shaken, and when he met Chu Xingxiong's eyes, he suddenly had a hint of retreat.

Looking at the corner of the hall, Chu Binggong sighed

"Chang Yingxi, what do you think?"

Hearing this, the faces of the elders in the audience changed slightly

"What? Chang Yingxi is also here!"

"Hehe, what can I do if I come? In the end, the head of the family must be Chu Jinyu's!"

......

The elders were talking. And not far away, with Chu Binggong's words, a shadow walked out of the corner

Everyone looked sideways, and Chu Xingxiong stretched his neck, wanting to see Chang Yingxi's demeanor.

She is wearing a purple swallow-tailed skirt, her jade-like face, very moving, a pair of gentle eyes that can move the stars and moon under her eyelashes, a tall nose, bright red lips, and three thousand ink-colored green silk that follows down, revealing a strong goddess fan!

This person is the eldest lady of the Chu family, Chu Haoran's adopted daughter, Chu Ge's sister, Chang Yingxi!

Witnessing Chang Yingxi's face in person, Mo said that the younger generation of the family, that is, all the elders had their eyes wide open, and there were a lot of fluctuations in their hearts, and Chu Xingxiong even flashed a lewd light in his eyes when he looked at her!

"There is such a beautiful woman in the world! It's like a fairy coming out of a painting!"

"It's really a painting!"

......

"Hello Uncle Chu, hello elders! Little girl, be polite!"

When she came to Chu Binggong, after bowing to everyone from afar, she stood quietly aside, bearing everyone's gaze alone.

"She is worthy of Chu Haoran's girl, not only is she beautiful, but she also behaves elegantly, she is generous, she is dressed decently, and she deserves the title of princess!"

One elder was the first to stand and applaud

Under his leadership, several other elders also encouraged him, and his eyes were full of satisfaction when they looked at Chang Yingxi.

Seeing this, a hatred flashed in Chu Xingxiong's eyes.

"Hmph! I'll let you get out of power for a while, and we'll see how you get off the stage!"

......

Looking around the hall, Chang Yingxi took a deep breath, her red lips lifted lightly, and she said slowly

"You don't have to do this at all, I'm not interested in the next head of the family!"

"Because. ”

"Chu Ge, still alive!"
