Song Zining's refusal to participate in the collegiate meeting of the elders caused an uproar for a while, and almost every elder angrily accused Song Zining of having no respect for the elders, no order for the elders and young, and no way to teach at home. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This teaching is undoubtedly aimed at Song Zhongnian. However, Song Zhongnian was not angry, nor did he have an attack, he just listened quietly, and sighed when no one was around.

Different from the almost unanimous accusations of the elders, the guests who came to mourn, as well as the younger generation and the vassals of the side branches in the Song Dynasty, were all admired. As soon as the old lady returned to heaven, the people who guarded the spirit of the Song lord's family began to become pretentious, and no one was stupid, who could they hide from such a style? At this time, it was only then that it was clear who really had a deep relationship with the old lady.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Song Zining still didn't eat or move, it seemed that he was planning to keep it for fourteen days. According to the past practice, such a seven-day vigil was enough, but Song Zining felt that another seven days could not relieve the grief in his heart.

In the early morning, Song Zhongnian got up and finished washing, had breakfast, and read books and drank tea in the study. By this time, there will be no new guests coming to the door, and those who should have come have already arrived. Some important guests could not stay long and began to leave one after another. There are fewer things to be sent to, and he is finally more relaxed.

Seeing that Song Zhongnian was free, the old housekeeper said: "Master, now the elders in the other rooms are gossiping a lot, and some people openly accuse you of being old and faint in the court, and want you to abdicate and make way for Xian! They are so arrogant, you can't sit idly by!"

Song Zhongnian sat still, took a sip of tea, and said, "What do they say about Zining?"

"Is there anything else you can say about it? It's all about the Seventh Young Master's disrespect for elders, disrespect for elders, and ignorance of etiquette and the like. said that he was no longer from the Song family, and what was he doing when he came back. ”

Song Zhongnian's face turned pale, and he heaved, and said, "These guys, for their own selfish interests, don't even care about right and wrong. I think even if the Song family falls, they won't take it to heart!"

"That's it, sir, you have to think of a way! If this continues, the situation will not be quite right. ”

Song Zhongnian sighed and said, "Zi Ning has a heart. And what he thinks now, I don't know. If he is willing to take over the position of head of the family, it is naturally the best. It's just that he is still too young after all, and even if he has the ability, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!"

The old housekeeper was a little anxious, "Seven young people can't convince the public, so can the others do it? Which of those sons in the other rooms is better than the seven young ones?" Master, you are a little worried. ”

As soon as the words came out, the old butler hurriedly knelt down and said, "I am old and confused, and I have said the wrong thing." ”

Song Zhongnian smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "You're right, when the ancestor was still there, he just felt that my heart was too soft, and I hesitated when I encountered things, looked forward and backward, and couldn't make a decision. This time I didn't fight much, in fact, I also felt in my heart that I was not suitable to sit in this position. ”

The old housekeeper was anxious again, and wanted to persuade again, Song Zhongnian said: "No need to say more, let's go, accompany me to see Zining." It is a pity that only at this time can we really see people's hearts, if the ancestors had seen today's situation, I am afraid that they would have started to rectify the family style a long time ago. Those people are the ones who don't know etiquette and religion and don't respect their ancestors! Alas, such a Song family can be dispersed!"

When Song Zhongnian came to the mourning hall, Song Zining was still kneeling there, motionless.

Song Zhongnian looked at the portrait of Mrs. An Guo for a while, and said, "Can you still stand it?"

"For those of my generation who cultivate, what is it if you don't eat or move for more than ten days?"

"Thank you. ”

"It's not hard. ”

Song Zhongnian nodded and said, "You have to worry more about the affairs inside the valve in the future." On the side of the Council of Elders, there is already a seat for you, although you can only discuss matters now, not make decisions, but ......"

Song Zining interrupted him, "The old ancestor is in front of him, don't talk about the affairs of the clan, her old man will be angry when she finds out." ”

Song Zhongnian was a little embarrassed and said, "I know what happened back then, and you have a problem in your heart." Blame me, for not protecting you. ”

Song Zining shook his head and said, "What happened back then was not a bad thing, and now I am doing well." It's just that I didn't expect the people in the clan to be so anxious, and they didn't even have to wait for the forty-ninth day mourning period, so they were in a hurry to discuss the matter. ”

Song Zhongnian's face was slightly red, he sighed, and said, "I can't help it, every room is very tight." And the situation outside is also very urgent, so we can't afford to delay. Before the ancestor left, he didn't even leave a word about how the Song family would arrange in the future, which led to today's situation. ”

Song Zining said lightly: "The ancestor just left a word, if she didn't agree with some people's minds, they would also say that her old man was old and confused, and she couldn't do anything." ”

Song Zhongnian was furious: "Who dares?!"

"Why wouldn't they dare?"

Song Zhongnian's anger gradually subsided, and finally sighed.

Song Zining said: "If you want me to take charge of this family and break this situation, but you have to think about it, my behavior is not the same as yours, and if there is anything you can't get used to when the time comes, it will be too late to interfere again." ”

Song Zhongnian was slightly startled and said, "What do you want to do?"

Song Zining said: "I don't want to do anything." As soon as the mourning period was over, I left. ”

Song Zhongnian somehow breathed a sigh of relief in disappointment. He also didn't understand his mind, got up and brushed his sleeves, and said, "There is still some time, let me think about it again." ”

After leaving the mourning hall, the old butler took a step closer, lowered his voice, and said, "Master, what else do you want to think?"

Song Zhongnian smiled bitterly: "Even if he agrees, if he wants to help him to the position of the head of the family, he will have to put all his net worth on my house to succeed." It's easy to get an elder, but with Zi Ning's temperament, how can an elder appease him?"

"Master, aren't you planning to help the young master become the head of the family?

Song Zhongnian coughed twice and said, "This matter is indeed a bit difficult to handle, and Zining doesn't seem to pay much attention to this matter. ”

The old housekeeper wanted to say something, but Song Zhongnian glanced at him sideways, and couldn't help but bow his head and say, "The old servant has overstepped." ”

Song Zhongnian sighed, shook his head again, and walked towards his residence. At this time, it was supposed to be the time of the Council of Elders, but the Council of Elders now meets every day, and the content remains the same as that of the families in each room quarreling over interests. Every time the argument ends at the end, it will basically be argued until the topic of separation.

Thinking of the Council of Elders, Song Zhongnian had a big headache, and many people kept moving openly and secretly, and it was common for them to openly contradict each other, which also made Song Zhongnian unhappy. Thinking that there could be no big event at the elders' meeting, Song Zhongnian wanted to have a quiet afternoon and stop causing trouble.

At this moment, an attendant flew over, rushed all the way to Song Zhongnian, and said breathlessly: "Master of the family, the big thing is not good!

Song Zhongnian was puzzled when he heard this, his face sank, and he reprimanded: "What do you look like in a panic!

"Yes, my lord! Yes, a guest came to the door of the manor and wanted to come in. ”

"What kind of guests?"

The attendant looked left and right, and when he saw that there were no idlers, Fang lowered his voice and said, "That person calls himself Ye Qian, and he wants to see the Seventh Prince by name." ”

Song Zhongnian suddenly gasped and said, "Is it him?"

"He was born so young and handsome, he didn't look like a mortal, the little one once saw that person when he was on duty outside the land, it was exactly the same, absolutely yes!"

"Why is he here?" Song Zhongnian was a little overwhelmed for a while, and he was a little overwhelmed.

"What should I do now, do you want to send someone to take him down?"

"Fool around! No one is allowed to mess around without my orders! Now you take him to the side hall first, and you must not let the guests see it, and no one else will know about it. If the news leaks out, I'll ask you!"

The attendant hurriedly said, "The little one understands, let's do it!"

Song Zhongnian only felt a pang of tightness in his chest, calmed down, and pondered for a moment, but he was still at a loss. As the head of the Song Valve family, the Duke of Wei Guo, no matter how declining he is, he still knows some things that his level should know. Qianye's brazen killing of Li Feng Shui in the military headquarters was shocking enough, and a series of battle examples in neutral places since then quietly circulated in the upper echelons of the empire. There is also a saying that Wei Lao, an important minister of the military department, secretly went to a neutral place, but never returned, and it seems that it has nothing to do with Qianye.

What made Song Zhongnian even more headache was that Qianye had recently been involved with many big names in the empire, and the relationship between them was unclear, and even involved big names like King Zhiji. And for some reason, it is rumored that Empress Li in the palace has also been very concerned about neutral places recently. In this case, you have to be extra cautious about how to treat Qianye, and even have a feeling that you can't touch it.

In addition, Thousand Nights themselves are by no means a master to be messed with. He has become famous since his bloody battles, and every time he fights the weak and strong, the speed of cultivation is simply incredible, and he is even considered by the king of the pole to have a way to the sky, a great avenue. How can such a character be easily offended? There are really days and thousands of nights to set foot in the realm, even if it is just to wipe the side, then the people who have offended him are afraid that they will not be able to sleep.

Qianye's own identity as a blood clan has been revealed to the world, but now he has openly run to the mouth of the Song valve, as long as he is allowed to enter the village, it is a handle, and it will not be clear in the future.

Song Zhongnian couldn't help but secretly hate Qianye's unsteady behavior, he changed his name, but he didn't change his appearance! Besides, what is the difference between Yeqian and Qianye?

It's too late to say anything now, no matter how Song Zhongnian hides it, I'm afraid he won't be able to cover up the news, with Song Valve's current situation of ventilating everywhere, it won't be long before everyone will know about it. One can imagine how many people in the presbyterian meeting will take advantage of this.

It was when he had a headache that the old housekeeper saw Song Zhongnian's embarrassment and said, "Master, that person has always been good friends with the Seventh Young Master, why don't you hand over this matter to the Young Master and let him deal with it?"

It was really a word that woke up the person in the dream, and Song Zhongnian suddenly realized that he said, "Very good! ”

The old housekeeper hurriedly turned around and went back to the mourning hall and told Song Zining about it. Song Zining's expression was complicated, angry and a little moved, and he shook his head and said, "This guy is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic." ”
