Chapter 81 The Successor Controversy ([-])
"The position of Patriarch should be passed on to the blood descendants of the previous Patriarch, how dare Changzhi steal it?"

Wang Changzhi shook his head, he was not interested in being the head of the family, the affairs of Liaodong County alone made him burnt out, how could he have time to deal with family affairs.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Changsheng and Wang Changtu were overjoyed.

But Wang Changnian was a little impatient.

Wang Roujing on the side held Wang Changnian's hand, telling him not to be impulsive.

"Changzhi, the previous Patriarch had intended to pass on to you a long time ago, you can't refuse." Xu Caiwei, who was grieved by the loss of her husband, decided to follow her husband's last wish.

"Mother? You?" Wang Changtu was very puzzled. Why didn't his mother support his own child, but instead supported others?

Wang Changsheng let out a long sigh, he is a filial person, even if his mother doesn't support him, he is too embarrassed to rob him.

"But I'm the governor of Liaodong, how can I have time to deal with family affairs?" Wang Changzhi continued to evade.

Wang Changnian was overjoyed, now Wang Changjiong didn't want to fight, Wang Changzhi voluntarily gave up, Wang Changsheng lost the support of his biological mother, and he won the support of four sisters from Wang Yue's line.

"If cousin Changzhi doesn't have time to deal with family affairs, then we have no choice but to elect someone else to be the head of the family. I think cousin Changnian is very suitable." Wang Miaochun said from the side.

"Cousin Changnian is the descendant of the ancestors, I think it is appropriate." Wang Yanrong helped.

"Yes, yes." The two sisters, Wang Hanyan and Wang Lingxue, have long been bribed by Wang Changnian.

They are all girls from the Wang family, and sooner or later they will be married off. In fact, the former head of the family, Wang Tairan, had already planned to marry them off, but they passed away suddenly.

But they were used to being free and loose in the Wang family since they were young, so how could they be willing to be a tool for marriage?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Changnian promised them that as long as he was the Patriarch of the Wang family, he would never let the women of the Wang family marry. This was why the four women from Wang Yue's line supported him.

Wang Changan, who is also in Wang Yue's lineage, did not dare to express his opinion. He just wanted to be bad, and it didn't matter who was the head of the family.

"Sisters, Chang Nian is not talented and has little knowledge, and he will never be able to bear the responsibility of being the head of the family." Wang Changnian prepared to give three words and three concessions according to the script.

"Changnian cousin, you are too self-effacing." All the sisters echoed.

"Oh! The blood of a lowly slave dares to covet the position of Patriarch?" Although Wang Changtu did not dare to compete with Wang Changzhi, he was not at all cowardly when facing Wang Changnian, and actually uttered wild words in front of everyone.

"Brother Tu, shut up!" Wang Changsheng quickly scolded his younger brother. Although he also looked down on Wang Changnian, he must not say such words that are not conducive to family unity in such a public place.

"Me!" Wang Changtu wanted to continue scolding, but seeing the unfriendly eyes of everyone, he could only shut up.

"Hehe..." Wang Changnian felt a little embarrassed when someone pointed at his nose and scolded him, but he didn't dare to refute. He still wanted to maintain his magnanimous personality.

Watching the performances of these clowns, Wang Laojiao couldn't sit still, and persuaded Wang Changzhi: "Nephew Changzhi, besides you, is there anyone else who is more suitable? Whether it is for the unity of the Wang family or for the completion of the First Patriarch's last wish, you must inherit the position of Patriarch!"

"But I'm the governor of Liaodong..." Wang Changzhi still wanted to continue to evade.

"Cousin, I have a solution." At this moment, Wang Changye, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

Everyone looked at Wang Changye.

I saw Wang Changye coming slowly: "After cousin Changzhi becomes the head of the family, Ms. Song Qianru will continue to be the acting head of the family, and Ms. Song Qianru will manage the affairs of my Wang family."

Hearing this, everyone frowned. Although they trusted Song Qianru, Song Qianru was an outsider after all. She had been acting as the head of the family for a few months before. It was because everyone thought that Song Qianru was only a temporary job for a few months, so they agreed. Isn't it absurd to be the acting head of the Wang family?

"No wonder the former governor of Liaodong said that Changye's nephew is a genius. This method is really interesting." Wang Roujing laughed, she was insinuating that Wang Changye's method was too whimsical.

"Thank you, aunt, for your compliment." Wang Changye was not angry, but just replied, and then continued to add: "Ms. Song Qianru is the long-term acting head of the Wang family, and at the same time, a person with high prestige in the family will be in charge. All affairs handled by the acting head of the family must be guarded , if all passed, it will be implemented directly, if one person disagrees, then let the soldiers submit the matter to the Liaodong County Mansion, and the cousin of Changzhi will handle the family affairs remotely. Convince everyone."

"This..." Wang Changzhi was also thinking about it.

"Brother's method is really good." Wang Changyu flattered his own brother.

"It's absolutely impossible. I'm still a teacher at the school, so I don't have time to manage the affairs of the Wang family for a long time." Song Qianru shook her head and refused.

"My father is also well-read in poetry and books, so he can take on the post of teacher in the school." Wang Changye brought out his father Dongfang Shuo.

Dongfang Shuo had already been demoted to a commoner because he uttered wild words to the prime minister in Weiyang Palace, and now he has nothing to do all day long in Chang'an, just in time for him to come back to be the teacher of the Wang family's children.

"But who should this highly respected person be?" Wang Roujing continued to ask, as long as Wang Changzhi doesn't give up fighting, then they have absolutely no chance. All her strategies are based on Wang Changzhi not fighting for the position of Patriarch, or Under the premise that both Wang Changzhi and Wang Changjiong will suffer, this premise does not exist now. In the face of Wang Changzhi's absolute family prestige, she can only take the next best thing, such as fighting for a man of high morals that Wang Changye said.

After all, in terms of seniority in the entire Wang family, she, Wang Roujing, is the tallest. She met her ancestor Kang Zhenrong, and she was taught by her ancestor Kang himself when she was a child.

"Naturally, he is a person recognized by everyone." Wang Changye threw this question to everyone, he did not dare to arbitrarily decide the list of highly respected persons.

Wang Changnian is not a fool, he saw that his adoptive mother had given up fighting, although he was unwilling, but now that Wang Changye proposed a solution so that Wang Changzhi could be the head of the family, how dare he fight with Wang Changzhi?

All the previous strategies were based on the premise that Wang Changzhi had no time to take care of his family because he was the prefect of Liaodong.

Now that Wang Changye proposed a solution so that Wang Changzhi could handle family affairs while being the governor of Liaodong, the others would not dare to fight any more.

"Aunt Roujing, Aunt Ruojiao, and Aunt Caiwei are most suitable for the people who are highly respected," Wang Changzhi said.

Wang Roujing and Wang Ruojiao are the two highest-ranking people in the family, and Xu Caiwei is the widow of the previous head of the family. It is most suitable for the three of them to assist and supervise the acting head of the house, Song Qianru.

Satisfied with getting the result she wanted, Wang Roujing respectfully said to Wang Changzhi, "I have met the Patriarch!"

The rest of the people also reacted one after another, and respectfully said to Wang Changzhi: "I have seen the Patriarch."

"Everyone, there is no need to be polite." Wang Changzhi smiled. There is no suspense about this matter. His prestige in the Wang family is too high. Those who want to compete for the position of Patriarch just because he is the prefect of Liaodong think that he has no time to be in charge of the house. That's all.

In the end, the family meeting went well and no one messed around.

Wang Changzhi, grandson of Wang Liang and son of Wang Taihao, will inherit the title of Patriarch of the Wang Family, and Ms. Song Qianru will continue to act as the acting Patriarch.

With the moment Wang Changzhi became the head of the Wang family, he also received a lot of information instantly.

"Goldfinger?"

"It turns out that it has been inherited from generation to generation since the ancestor Kang's time."

The information was directly poured into his mind, and he instantly understood many things that he couldn't understand before, and he tried to use his cheat function.

"Descent!"
