Retreating to advance? If you want to retreat, then retreat!

Zhao Ling’er returned to the Zhao family and met her aunt Zhao Caiyi.

The joy of returning home made Zhao Ling’er happy.

When she was young, Xinxi and Yuyue always loved her and treated her as their own.

But when seeing other classmates being loved by their parents, young Zhao Ling’er would inevitably feel disappointed.

She often lamented that she was an orphan and homeless.

Now, he can be regarded as having relatives.

Zhao Caiyi also loved Zhao Linger with all her heart, as this was her sister’s only flesh and blood.

The two chatted for a long time. Zhao Caiyi listened to Zhao Ling’er’s life history and wanted to know how she had been living over the years.

Zhao Ling’er also answered all questions and told Zhao Caiyi about her life over the years.

She was adopted by two masters, treated her as her own, cultivated herself with care, and even made herself the goddess of Yaochi. She lived a good life without any grievance.

When Zhao Caiyi heard this, she felt relieved, as long as she didn’t suffer.

“By the way, is the Yaochi Immortal Palace you are talking about the Immortal Palace in the Eternal Immortal Realm?” Zhao Caiyi asked.

“Well, the two masters are very nice people.” Zhao Ling’er said with a smile.

“I had a chance encounter with them at the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference,” Zhao Caiyi said.

“Auntie, have you met my masters?” Zhao Ling’er asked.

“Well, it’s just a one-time encounter, and I haven’t had any communication with them.”

“If you have an opportunity, I’ll pay them a visit and express my gratitude to them for bringing you up.” Zhao Caiyi rubbed her little head lovingly.

Zhao Ling’er felt very comfortable, holding Zhao Caiyi’s arm and leaning on her shoulder.

This feeling of being valued by her relatives was the first time in her life that she felt it.

The two chatted for a long time, and finally, Zhao Ling’er asked the question.

Zhao Ling’er asked hesitantly: “Auntie, where are my parents? They…”

Zhao Ling’er looked at Zhao Caiyi with expectation in her eyes.

When Zhao Caiyi heard this, her eyes dimmed a little and she couldn’t help but sigh.

Although Zhao Ling’er had speculations in his mind, Zhao Ling’er would still feel sad when he thought something happened to them.

“Are they gone?” Zhao Ling’er’s voice trembled when she asked this question.

Zhao Caiyi held Zhao Ling’er in her arms, gently stroked her hair, and sighed: “They can’t come back.”

Zhao Ling’er sobbed silently and cried silently in Zhao Caiyi’s arms.

For a long time, Zhao LingerHe said with red eyes: “Can you tell me what happened?”

Zhao Caiyi did not hide anything and told her the truth.

“When you were first born, our Zhao family got a heavenly book. Your mother is very knowledgeable and proficient in interpreting the strange texts in various ancient books and the inscriptions on the utensils.”

“The clan asked your mother to study the Book of Heaven, and she lived up to expectations. She gained a glimpse of the mysteries from the Book of Heaven, and successfully increased the strength of our Zhao family.”

“But as her interpretation deepened, she read a shocking secret in the heavenly book, a chance to become a saint!”

“This matter was learned by the ancestors of the clan. In order to compete for the opportunity to become a saint, the two Hunyuan ancestors of the Zhao family turned against each other and did not hesitate to fight.”

“These two ancestors are still the ancestors of my Zhao family. They started at a young age and are as close as brothers. However, because no one wants to lose this opportunity, they both get angry.”

“At that time, because your mother mastered the Heavenly Book and decoded the opportunity to become a saint, she was of course the focus of everyone’s competition. This was also the source of misfortune. The party who couldn’t get it wanted to destroy her, and no one could get it.”

“It’s really heartbreaking. The Zhao family fell apart because of this incident.”

“And in order to protect you, your mother used a secret method to send you away. No one can trace you. I heard that they recently found a way to find you.”

“I probably think that you have the method of sanctification left by your mother.”

Zhao Ling’er remained silent, feeling a dull pain in her heart.

Zhao Caiyi said: “It’s strange to say that not long after the internal fighting broke out, the book never appeared again and disappeared.”

Book of Heaven, internal fighting…

Zhao Ling’er learned the truth about the past bit by bit.

But so what, my mother can’t come back anymore.

“Auntie, are you saying that the other two people are the murderers who forced my mother to death?” Zhao Ling’er asked in a deep voice, with a firm look in his eyes.

Zhao Caiyi said: “Don’t think about revenge. You can’t beat them. I don’t want you to be in danger.”

Zhao Ling’er didn’t speak. Hatred can’t be put down with just one or two words.

At this moment, there was a sound outside the hall.

“The head of the family, the Crown Prince Zhao Qingxiong would like to see you.”

Zhao Caiyi was confused as to what he was doing here.

Although she was confused, she still said: “Let him come in.”

“yes.”

When Zhao Linger saw someone coming, she wanted to withdraw from the palace and let Zhao Caiyi handle the affairs.

Zhao Caiyi left her behind and sat not far from her. Zhao Ling’er sat next to her obediently without saying anything.

Soon, a young man with a weak aura and a haggard look that could not be concealed by makeup walked in.

“Young man Qingxiong, I have met the head of the family.”

As soon as the man came in, he bowed and saluted Zhao Caiyi.

Behind him, there were more than a dozen clan elders, led by his father: Zhao Yan.

This large group of people came in together, which made Zhao Caiyi feel a little bad.

“No need to be polite, just get up.”

“Yes.” Zhao Qingxiong said.

He looked up and saw a beautiful and agile woman next to Zhao Caiyi, who was very similar to Zhao Caiyi.

Just one look is stunning.

His heart was burning, but he didn’t show it.

“What do you want from me?” Zhao Caiyi said.

“Master, I heard that a missing sister in our family has returned. I came here to meet her and welcome her home.”

Zhao Qingxiong said: “It must be the one next to you, welcome home.”

“As an elder brother, there are no good gifts. Please don’t mind this little gift, sister.”

He took out a storage bag containing various rare treasures and gave it to Zhao Ling’er.

Zhao Ling’er glanced at Zhao Caiyi and accepted it when she nodded, but she didn’t take a closer look.

“Ling’er thanked the prince.” Zhao Ling’er said politely.

“Is that all? If there is nothing else, you can go back and do your own thing.” Zhao Caiyi said.

Zhao Yan said: “Master, my son is too embarrassed to bear such a big responsibility. You chose him to be the heir apparent because you have no children and he is just right, so you made him the heir apparent.

“Now that Ling’er has returned home, Quanzi’s position as the heir apparent is almost over.” Zhao Yan said sincerely, very seriously.

Before Zhao Caiyi could speak, more than a dozen clan elders behind Zhao Yan immediately refused: “Elder Zhao, what are you talking about?”

“Qingxiong has outstanding abilities and strong talents. The hierarchy of our Zhao family depends on strength, not blood relationship.”

“That’s right, if you ask Qingxiong to abdicate, isn’t this breaking the rules of my Zhao family?”

“Of course, I’m not saying that Ling’er is not good. We just act according to the rules. You don’t have to be like this.”

Everyone was talking to each other, not giving Zhao Qingxiong a chance to resign.

Zhao Caiyi still doesn’t understand.

These people worry that they will be partial due to love and want toTo make up for Ling’er, he gave in to her everywhere, even training Ling’er as the next head of the family.

In order to prevent this from happening, it was a good plan to deliberately step forward and resign in order to retreat in order to advance.

Not to mention that she doesn’t have this idea, even if she does, it can’t be controlled by you people with just a few words.

Moreover, Ling’er is the goddess of the Yaochi Immortal Palace, and her status is much higher than that of the heir of the Zhao family. Ling’er may not be willing to become one.

“Elder Zhao Yan, are you serious?” Zhao Caiyi said quietly.

“It’s absolutely true.” Zhao Yan affirmed.

“Qingxiong, do you think so too?”

“Master, that’s what I think.”

At this time, the elders of various clans stood up again and continued to put pressure. They gave a compromise plan.

“Elder Zhao Yan, it’s inappropriate.”

“High positions belong to those who are capable. If you give them up for no reason, isn’t this nepotism?”

“If this matter really comes to pass, it will damage the family head’s prestige if word spreads about it.”

“that is!”

“I do have a compromise that I can try.”

“…………”

Zhao Caiyi said in a deep voice at this time: “That’s enough. Do you have the final say in the Zhao family, or do I?”

The cold breath burst out instantly, and the whole audience was shocked by her, and no one dared to speak.

Even the compromise plan that followed was not revealed in time.

Zhao Caiyi understood that these people were forcing her to consolidate Zhao Qingxiong’s position, but she didn’t like being forced by others.

“Qingxiong, I’m very happy that you have such thoughts.”

“Elder Zhao Yan, you know how to take the overall situation into consideration and understand the general situation. You are truly the pillar of my Zhao family.”

Zhao Yan smiled and said nothing.

But Zhao Caiyi’s next words made him unable to laugh anymore.

“I think you are right. Ling’er may be more suitable to be the heir of my Zhao family than Qingxiong.”

“Qingxiong, I am very pleased that you took the initiative to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of your honour.”

“That’s right!”

Zhao Yan was silent and Zhao Qingxiong was shocked.

Why doesn’t this woman play by the rules? !
