Chapter 1050 Designated Zen Seat
"Patriarch? Hehe, the old man is not dead yet. Could it be that you, the Patriarch, were appointed by yourself?"

As soon as Chen Hong's words fell, an old voice came from outside the square, causing everyone's body to tremble, and they turned their heads in amazement...

The person who came was Chen Zhan. His clothes were damaged in several places, which should have been hung on branches while sneaking in the mountains.

Including the old servant Chen who was behind him, the same was true. Both master and servant had bloodstains on their skirts. They looked in a state of distress. How could they tell that they were the Patriarch of the Chen family?

This scene stung the eyes of all the members of the Chen family. Most of the members of the family suddenly came to their senses. Anger appeared on their faces, and their fists were clenched...

"Look, old man, I'm in such a mess, do I look like I'm out wandering?"

After arriving, Chen Zhan looked around and said something loudly like self-deprecating, his eyes shifted, and he swept towards the ceremony platform in front, his canthus tearing apart: "Chen Zhiyi, Chen Hong, you want to kill me for your own selfishness. Father murdering ancestors, you can do such things that cannot be tolerated by nature, what qualifications do you have to be the head of my Chen family? Are you not afraid of the jokes of the ancestors?"

Hearing this, the members of the Chen family who had already guessed the truth were shocked, gasping for air, and angrily reprimanded...

"Hiss! This matter... is actually true?"

"The old man has been working hard for my Chen family for many years. I didn't expect to be assassinated by my son and grandson when I was old. God is really unreasonable!"

"It's so frenzied. You can do things like killing your father and ancestors. How sad is the old man?"

"It's unfortunate that the Chen family has such two scumbags!"

"Kill them and drive them out of the Chen family..."

All the clansmen were furious, raised their arms and shouted, hundreds of howls turned into one voice, loudly attacking Chen Zhiyi and Chen Hong and his son.

This was definitely a real public outrage. Chen Hong, who had never expected that the old man would dare to come back to die, was caught off guard and lost his position on the spot.

Both father and son looked panic-stricken, retreated subconsciously, and looked towards Sange Lao with pleading eyes...

At this time, only the prestige of the Ge Laohui can save them. Otherwise, it will arouse public anger. Even if they are powerful and can forcibly reverse everything and seize the position of Patriarch, they will lose people's hearts in the future and have many disadvantages.

"Chen Zhan, don't fan the flames here!"

The six old fellows also had worried expressions on their faces. After frowning and exchanging glances, Elder Sange bravely stepped out and raised his hand to point to Chen Zhan and Chen Tang: "You have always favored Chen Tang, who is going to take this matter?" People don't know?"

"Based on this alone, you are already unqualified to be the head of the Chen family. Now that the situation outside is worrying, you are already very old. The decision-makers of my Chen family should inject fresh blood in order to achieve greater glory."

"That's right, Chen Zhiyi and Chen Hong's father and son did attack you, but that was not their original intention, but a secret order issued by the elders' association. The elders' association also made a decision after weighing this matter. If it wasn't for you If you insist on going your own way, favor Chen Tang, and refuse to hand over the position of Patriarch, how can the elders of the pavilion make such a bad plan?"

"In the final analysis, the six old men made such a decision, everything is for the prosperity and stability of the Chen family..."

This is really a lotus flower on the tongue, he said that the dead are alive, and the degree of shamelessness has already refreshed the three views of Chen Tang and others.

But on the surface, the words of Sange elders did solve the crisis between Chen Zhiyi and Chen Hong. possible.

These thoughts flashed through their minds, the father and son exchanged glances, and there was a hint of ecstasy in their eyes, no longer guilty, straightened their chests, walked forward a few more words, glared at Chen Zhan and Chen Tang, completely For the sake of the future of the Chen family, he did not hesitate to endure humiliation...

"People have no shame, they can do everything! The ugly faces of the elders really amazed me..."

Chen Zhan curled his lips and sneered, his face was full of contempt, and he taunted unceremoniously: "But this is good, let everyone see your true colors, and the prestige of the elders will be lost. After this incident, the new If the new Patriarch takes over, all the decision-making power of the Chen family will be highly concentrated in the hands of the new Patriarch."

"When the old man was in office, the power of the patriarch was emptied, and the elders of the pavilion controlled everything. It will no longer exist. This is a serious illness. "

Halfway through the speech, Chen Zhan took a deep breath, turned around and looked around the audience, and changed his subject abruptly: "In the past, I didn't want the Chen family to have civil turmoil, so I transferred the elders' association many times. I can hardly absolve myself of the blame for the current situation."

"But now, I have decided not to forbear and give in. The elders will support Chen Hong in his position, and I will never agree."

"According to the family rules of the Chen family, the previous head of the family had the right to designate the seat of Zen. Now this old man is exercising this right and appointing me as the head of the family. He is...Chen Tang!!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around again, and all the clansmen changed their colors, and whispered...

"Designate a Zen seat? There is indeed such a rule in my Chen family's rules. This is a privilege bestowed on the head of the family, and no head of the family has ever exercised it..."

"Exercising the right to designate a Zen position means that there is a disagreement among the senior members of the Chen family. This is a way to resolve the differences and seek common ground while reserving differences."

"This kind of right, if you forcibly ascend the throne, it is not so easy..."

"That's right, in order to gain everyone's approval, the one who has been designated as Zen must accept the challenge of the three elders, and must win all three battles. Even if he loses one battle, he will be out of the game and expelled from the family tree! "

These words caught his ears, and Chen Tang frowned immediately...

He had never heard Pang Lao mention the idea of ​​designating a Zen seat before, and he was completely unaware of it.

Now it seems that grandfather Chen Zhan, father Chen Yao, and Pang Lao and the others had been telling Chen Tang that if he wanted to take over the Chen family and set things right, he had to do so when Chen Tang's own strength was strong enough to compete with the old elders' association. That's what it means.

Strictly speaking, the current Chen Tang actually doesn't have the strength to compete head-on with the entire Chenjiage old society, because he hasn't entered the ninth stage yet.

But today's situation is special, the eldest and second elders are not here, and the remaining six elders are only in the eighth stage. It is no wonder that Chen Zhan proposed to designate a Zen seat.

From this point of view, Chen Zhan had obviously waited for this day for a long time. The elders of Dage and Elder Erge left temporarily, and Chen Zhiyi and Chen Hong and his son took the opportunity to make trouble. Why didn't Chen Zhan follow the trend?
