Chapter 293: Go and Stay
Not 100% of the words of the serious mountain can be believed, but it is not completely unbelievable.
Yan Shoucheng was skeptical and agreed to him: "Judging from the fact that you have spent so many years thinking about bringing me back, there is no one in the Yan family who is more suitable for the current position of head of the family than me." Right now, I am the only choice for the Yan family, but the Yan family is not my only choice. ”
"I saw the crisis of the Yan family from Lao Ou's records before, which is no smaller than the crisis a hundred years ago, and if you are not careful, you may be eaten up by the other three major families. You asked me to come back because you wanted me to keep the Yan family, right? ”
Seriously the mountain did not deny it, was silent.
Yan Shoucheng continued: "I also observed the elder meeting just now, there are nine elders in the Yan family, but the nine elders are in small groups. From their attitude towards me, I can see that they all have thoughts about the position of the head of the family. ”
"That being the case, I can promise you to accept the position of head of the family, but I will also say ugly things ahead. The Yan family under my control is a Yan family that works together, not a Yan family with different intentions. If the elders of the Yan family can be used by me obediently, I naturally have no objections, but if they have two hearts, I will let them remove them from the Yan family. ”
Serious Mountain sighed: "The master is weak and the servant is strong, hundreds of years ago, the elders were attached to the family to survive, and they were respectful to the family master. As the head of the family passed down from generation to generation, the power of the elders continued to grow. In the past, the Council of Elders was to assist the head of the family in making decisions, but now the Council of Elders has become a tool for profit. As you can see, many times, the behavior of the head of the house is conditioned by the presbyterian church. ”
"Weakening the power of the Council of Elders is the main goal of our nearly three generations of family heads, and it is because of this mind that Wen Xu will be killed. I know you're not a puppet person, but you also have to remember that you have a wife and children, don't act too impulsively, and don't expose your thoughts until you are not strong enough to contend with it. ”
When Yan Shoucheng heard this, he also felt a little more guarded in his heart.
A glimmer of light flashed in the cloudy eyes of the serious mountain: "You are still young, there are some things that don't need to be rushed." I still have some time to pave the way for you. I hope that the Yan family will live forever, and I also hope that my descendants will be able to pass it on from generation to generation. ”
Yan Shoucheng nodded, and agreed to the request of the serious mountain.
The cooperation between the two is temporarily reached.
Continuing to discuss some specific matters, Yan Shoucheng officially accepted the work of the head of the family.
Yan Shoucheng asked for leave when he came to Yan's house.
Being involved in the Yan family's internal strife at the moment is unlikely to have results in the short term, so things from the outside world need to be dealt with.
Just now, the serious mountain reminded Yan Shoucheng that Su Qi and Tuan Tuan are now his weakness, and the future of the Yan family is not yet visible, and he can't let the two of them suffer.
Jiang Wenzhou said that Tuan Tuan would be fine in half a month, and Yan Shoucheng decided to take advantage of going out to solve external affairs and send Tuan Tuan and Su Ji back.
Thinking about things in his heart, he unconsciously walked to the door of the Autumn Palace.
Looking at the Qiu Gong Yuan that opened the courtyard gate, Yan Shoucheng thought of the scene when he came to the door on the first day.
The same courtyard gate, last time with a trace of uncertainty and apprehension, this time there was some fighting spirit.
Yan Shoucheng crossed the threshold and saw Su Ji who was cultivating in the courtyard.
Su Qi's five senses are keen, when Yan Shoucheng appeared, Su Qi was aware of it, and when he opened his eyes and saw Yan Shoucheng close at hand, Su Qi opened his mouth and asked, "How is it?" Are things going well? ”
Yan Shoucheng could see that Su Qi's cultivation had improved a little. Thinking that he tested it out to be a top-class talent, it is estimated that Su Ji is a super-talent.
After a brief divergence of thoughts, Yan Shoucheng came back to his senses and said to Su Qi: "The head of the Yan family announced my identity to the elders, but the time to go to the family tree has been delayed. In the next two months, the Yan family will send someone to Sheng County to investigate my identity. I'm also going to arrange my work. ”
Yan Shoucheng's thoughts, Su Qi understood: "Okay, when the time comes, I will work with you to arrange the affairs of the workshop by the way." ”
Yan Shoucheng hesitated for a moment and confessed: "Su Qi, I want to send you and the child out, and when everything is peaceful on my side, I will take you back." ”
In an instant, the atmosphere froze a little, and Su Qi asked, "Why?" Do you think I'm holding you back? ”
Yan Shoucheng hurriedly denied it: "No, I just don't want to involve you in these miscellaneous matters, and just now I was told that Yan Wenxu's death is inseparable from the position of the head of the family, and I don't want you to become a victim of my struggle for power and profit." ”
Yan Shoucheng sounded kind, but in Su Qi's opinion, Yan Shoucheng still didn't treat himself as an equal.
Su Ji never intended to be a silk flower, and he couldn't tolerate the other half to make decisions directly for himself in the name of his own good.
Now that Yan Shoucheng stepped on her bottom line, Su Ji suppressed his anger and analyzed Yan Shoucheng: "You are now in the Yan family, and the only person you can trust is Serious Mountain, and Serious Mountain is not 100% trusted." Rounding off is a person who fights alone, what kind of ghosts, snakes, and gods are the Yan family, you know better than me, are you sure you can do it alone? ”
"Yan Shoucheng, after so many years of marriage, what I can't stand the most is your self-righteous style. How many times have I told you, we are husband and wife, and I am not the character of flying separately when disaster strikes. I have my own abilities and I feel like I can work with you. ”
"Today, I didn't say it for the time being, you think about it again, if you really decide, I don't think there is any need for us to be together. I'm quitting your life. ”
In the end, Su Qi became more and more calm.
The last time Yan Shoucheng saw such calm, it was in the secret room, and Su Qi saw his illusion.
He was a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to communicate with Su Ji for a while.
Yan Shoucheng is a typical man's thinking, he doesn't like to be greasy and crooked, and he doesn't like women to be injured because of themselves.
To some extent, Su Ji is less feminine, and in his opinion, the distance between the two people is far, and the relationship will fade. Therefore, Su Ji will manage the marriage very carefully.
After a long psychological struggle, Yan Shoucheng decided to give in: "Su Ji, I'm sorry, it's me who thought it was bad." In that case, let's send the child back, and leave the two of us to face the enemy in peace. ”
"You came to seek medical treatment for Tuan Tuan, everyone knows that Tuan Tuan is your heart, we sent Tuan Tuan out, we can only let my mother raise it, my mother has no way to ensure Tuan Tuan's safety, it is better for the child to be by our side."
