Undead Mentor Aspects

The Xiao family has a new duke, which is shocking news in the emperor.

The circle of nobles is terribly narrow, and even the family who has more children knows whether it is a boy or a girl, and everyone knows how many mistresses the head of the family has.Xiao Tianming, as an undebuted young man in his twenties, took charge of the entire super family overnight, which is really staggering.

Rumors continued on the street, and there were criticisms within the family.The main hall of the family - the Hall of Zhenghe, this is the place where the Xiao family discusses major decisions.Generally, the succession of the head of the family, the determination of the heir, and the resolutions related to the family's major future issues are all made here.

Early in the morning, Zhenghe Hall was packed with people.Each of them is extraordinary, or mighty, or handsome, or gentle, with different temperaments.

On the seat in the center, a young man about twenty years old sat on it.The oversized seat is a bit incongruous with the slender body.It was Xiao Tianming who looked unhappy and was full of awkwardness.

A middle-aged man dressed as a butler stood aside with a respectful and solemn expression.It was Xiao Zheng, the housekeeper most trusted by the old Patriarch.

The first person to attack was a handsome man who was 27 or [-] years old, handsome in wind, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes.The resolute and powerful silhouette has inherited the excellent blood of the Xiao family.The good cultivation of the academic style cannot conceal all kinds of tenacity and belief in the heart.Young, fighting spirit, and experienced the baptism of vicissitudes, a big brother-like character.

It was Xiao Qifeng, the grandson of Xiao's parents and the only son of Xiao Shang, the original patriarch.Its name is Chang Feng Po Lang, meaning the wind shakes the sky.The best representative of the third generation of the Xiao family is about to graduate from the inner courtyard of Xianqin Academy.He was named the head of the four sons of the imperial capital.

It stands to reason that Xiao Qifeng, as the third generation, is not qualified to sit in the first place, but his father died young, so he inherited his father's position and became the representative of Xiao's family.

The second seat was empty. This was originally Xiao Shan's seat, but unfortunately no one had sat there for a long time.After he was promoted to acting Patriarch, the old man entrusted him to handle all the big and small matters of the family, and he naturally sat at the head of the hall, which was Xiao Tianming's position of Patriarch, for meetings.

After Xiao Tianming took out the so-called "suicide note" and took away the position of Patriarch, Xiao Shan consciously returned to the family fief, lived in seclusion, and avoided right and wrong.He is very smart, because no matter what he says, the title of "killing his father and becoming a leader will fail" has already fallen on his head, and he can't wash it off.It's better to get out, escape the sea of ​​suffering, and plan for the future.

The third person from the bottom is a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes.The same Xiao family-style slashed face is somewhat casual and comfortable, with eyes slightly closed, as if he doesn't care about the end of the matter, and seems to see through the world.The gorgeous clothes are extremely elegant and luxurious, with gold and silver threads, embroidered dragons and phoenixes, and the atmosphere is casual, comfortable and natural.What a happy and unrestrained king!

He is the only second-generation direct descendant of the Xiao family present here—Xiaoyao Wang Xiaohuo.It is said that Xiao Huo is also a generation of strange people.Back then his father, that is, the old Patriarch led him to fight many times, as long as he said he won, he would definitely return with a big victory; if he said he would lose, it would be a small defeat.Indeed, the most outstanding military strategist in the world, he can be called the emperor of battlefield prophecy.

Afterwards, when his eldest brother Xiao Shang went to the expedition, he also served in the army, and the result was far superior to that of his elder brother who inexplicably died on the battlefield, and the entire army was wiped out, but he managed to escape unscathed.For a man of heaven, good luck is perfect for him.It is said that until today, the third son of the Xiao family has not suffered a big loss, which is already well-known in the aristocratic circle.

Besides, his character is casual, free and easy, bohemian.If the imperial capital held a selection for the most mistresses, the hottest or the most illegitimate children, this ridiculous man would definitely be on the list.The land of smoke and willows, the land of gentleness, the reputation of Prince Xiaoyao has long been spread all over the world, and no one knows it.

What's more worth mentioning is that these negative gossips reached Xiao Huo's ears, not only was he not ashamed, but he laughed out loud, feeling deeply honored.He doesn't care about national feuds and family affairs, and he doesn't care about power struggles. Everything shows that this is the most carefree man in the world.

As for his striker, that is, the fourth from the positive number, there is also a young man who is about 25 years old.She looks very similar to him, and the romantic wrinkles between her brows are all carved out of the same mold.

It was Xiao Qiming, the youngest grandson of the Xiao family.The name comes from the meaning of tranquility and emptiness.Among them are the expectations of the old man of the Xiao family for this little grandson: Don't be as dissolute as his father, just be quiet.

The result was disappointing.Like his father, like his son, Xiao Qiming, who is not very young, is like his father, young and romantic, promiscuous, provoked countless love debts, and did many ridiculous things.In the senior year of the Xianqin Academy, he created the reputation of Nuo Da. No one knows that the young master of the Xiao family has a lot of money. Known as the best lover.

The above people are all the existing members of the direct descendants of the Xiao family.In addition to the "illegitimate son" Xiao Tianming who was killed halfway, he became all the official members of the empire's wealthy Xiao family.In fact, there should be a second grandson, Xiao Qigong, but Xiao Tianming stomped his head to pieces, and his soul disappeared, making the already sparse family even more deserted.

Regarding Xiao Tianming's murder of his brother, he was not punished, but instead got rid of his second uncle and took the position of Patriarch by mistake, everyone kept silent tacitly.Don't guess what the old Patriarch is thinking, it's useless.A done deal, any thought is an afterthought, and speaking out will only add to the joke.

Counting the time with pinching fingers, Xiao Zheng felt that it was time for the meeting. After signaling Xiao Tianming with his eyes, he cleared his throat and said brightly: "The Patriarch succeeds the big shop, and the family lineup meeting, starts now!"

"Touch!" The door of the main hall, which was originally opened, was slammed shut. After a crackling sound, the door was locked, and the Patriarch could only open it after the meeting was over.This is also the tradition of the Xiao family, family meetings, sacred and not to be disturbed.This is the meeting that decides the future of the family.

The originally dim hall looked even more gloomy without the light source outside the door.Although Xiao Tianming liked this atmosphere very much, for the sake of being a human being, he clapped his hands and lit the magic torch.The flickering flames shone on everyone's faces, making them look gloomy and weird.

Everyone's expression was distorted and magnified, ferocious and terrifying.The flame reflects the expression of the human heart.

"The family meeting officially begins!" Against the background of the atmosphere, Xiao Zheng's tone was a bit solemn, "First of all, please invite the new Patriarch to speak!"

"Everyone knows what happened to the family recently, and I won't repeat the details. In short, the old Patriarch entrusted the family to me before leaving, and I have the responsibility to lead the family to grow. Until one day, the family no longer needs When I am with you, I will take the initiative to return the position of the Patriarch to one of the people here, or your descendants." When Xiao Tianming said this, his face was indifferent, and he did not mean to be confused by the high position of the Patriarch of the Xiao Family. .

Hearing that Xiao Tianming was going to return the position of Patriarch, all the descendants below looked at each other in blank dismay, even the most indifferent Xiaoyao Wang Xiaohuo opened his eyes that had been closed all along.Not greedy for power, this young man is not hopeless.

An airborne leader is not welcome anywhere.What's more, Xiao Tianming, an illegitimate child of the family-run Xiao family, will definitely face many obstacles.The promise of returning the property to its original owner most directly dispelled Xiao Tianming's first resistance: motive and result.

Accept the entrustment of the old patriarch, help the family in danger, do not care about themselves, and defy the powerful.In the end, everything is gone, leaving no half reputation, and the property is returned to the original owner. It has indeed reached a certain level of thought.

After the turmoil subsided slowly, Xiao Tianming continued: "I return the family to you intact, and there is one more prerequisite. You must unconditionally support every decision I make, just like when the old family was here. Completely and completely cooperate with me. If I find out that there is a phenomenon of yin and yang, your direct descendants, your descendants, will forever lose the opportunity to inherit the head of the Xiao family. I will do what I say!"

As soon as Xiao Tianming's words came out, it caused even more waves.Within the big family, there will eventually be private forces among the various factions.Did Xiao Tianming make everyone take out the coffin with just one word?This is unrealistic and unacceptable.However, judging by Xiao Tianming's resolute appearance, maybe he will really deprive himself of the hope of competing for the head of the family in the future, this is his right!

What is right and what is wrong, how to choose, began to test the wisdom of several heirs of the Xiao family.

"Okay, since you don't object, you will agree with my opinion by default. If one day I make some punishment, don't say that I didn't predict it!" Xiao Tianming said in a serious tone, "Now, I am promulgating my inauguration as Patriarch. An order: Appoint the housekeeper Xiao Zheng as the chief housekeeper of the Xiao family. He has an overview of all family affairs. His status is higher than that of any non-direct descendants of the Xiao family. He has the right to make temporary decisions. In short, if I am not in the Xiao family, what Xiao Zheng means is my the meaning of."

When everyone heard it, they were even more surprised.It has never been heard that a family has promoted the status of a steward to such a high position.It is almost equivalent to another Patriarch!Isn't he afraid of Xiao Zheng's rebellion?Thinking of the kindness of the master to Xiao Zheng, and thinking about Xiao Zheng's loyalty, everyone suddenly felt that the possibility of Xiao Zheng's rebellion was far less than the possibility of the end of the world.It is indeed a very difficult task to make a man of firm belief change his belief.

"Now promulgate the second article of the Patriarch's Order to thoroughly investigate all collateral branches of the Xiao family, thoroughly investigate all industries under the name of the Xiao family and in cooperation with others, conduct financial statistics, and statistics of the family's funds, with particular emphasis on working capital and inherent assets. comparison of funds."

After everyone heard it, their faces changed. This doll with no hair at all seemed to be for real.A thorough investigation of the Xiao family's situation is obviously a process of understanding oneself.There is a saying in ancient military books: Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles.If there is a war, if you don't even understand yourself, how can you stand up in the world?

The new official took office with three fires, everything is about to begin!
