After seeing off Lan Xinyu, Ling Chuxi and her entourage continued to rush to the Ling family.
Because they had been delayed for too long in Danyun Valley, it was already late at night, and the speed they were walking with their swords was much slower than during the day. By the time they returned to Ling's house, it was already noon the next day.
"Miss, are you back?" As soon as he saw Ling Chuxi and others coming from a distance, a middle-aged man with a long sword hanging on his waist came up to them.
This man's name is Xu Zicheng, and he was the former leader of the guard of the Ling family. Because the third elder was nepotistic, Ling Huaixin took away the position of leader of the guard. However, the plan of the third elder failed later, and Ling Mofeng regained the power of the family and expelled Ling Huaixin and others.
He also regained his position in the Ling family.
Xu Zicheng was not present at the time. Only later did he know the whole story. He also knew that the reason why he was able to return to his original position was thanks to Ling Chuxi who made a big fuss in the Ling family and beat up Ling Huaixin and others, so he was particularly fond of Ling Chuxi.
Respect.
"Brother Xu, why are you so quiet today?" Seeing that the house was completely silent and unusually calm, Ling Chuxi asked strangely.
"My lords have important matters to discuss today, so I issued an order early in the morning that all the Ling family's children must not make any noise." Xu Zicheng replied.
"We have important matters to discuss again. Does the third elder want to play some tricks again?" Ling Chuxi asked. Anyway, no one in the Ling family knew about the ambition of the third elder, and she did not hide it.
"This time it has nothing to do with the third elder. News came from the family adjudication meeting yesterday that the general election will be held in advance. We were notified that the Ling family will send people to participate in the election in time, so the head of the family summoned all the elders and the heads of the major branches to come to discuss the election.
It's about establishing a young master." Although Xu Zicheng didn't have a good impression of the third elder, he didn't deliberately throw dirty water on his head and said it honestly.
"Choose a young master! Then let's go and take a look." Ling Zhongyu said excitedly.
No matter which family it is, appointing a young master is a major event. The young master who is elected by the elders in the family is often the next head of the family. Even if something unexpected happens to the current head of the family, this will not change.
This time no one dared to stop them from entering, Ling Chuxi and others walked quickly towards the meeting hall.
"Master, our Ling family has never mentioned the matter of electing a young master in these dozens of years. Why did you propose to appoint a young master not long after Ling Chuxi came back?" They heard this before they reached the meeting hall.
The third elder’s strange and sinister voice.
These words obviously meant something. Everyone stopped and looked at Ling Yixuan subconsciously. Ling Yixuan's face turned red with embarrassment. Although her grandfather didn't deliberately stir up trouble this time, he still couldn't stop listening to that tone.
.
"Weren't you eager to be the head of the family before? Didn't you also make such a fuss a few days ago?" Ling Mofeng said unceremoniously.
"Uh..." The third elder choked hard when he heard Ling Mofeng bring up old things again.
Although he didn't say it clearly, everyone could see that the third elder was not willing to choose the young master so early. It's no wonder, people are selfish, and the third elder's selfishness was even more serious. Not only did he want to be the master of the family, but he also wanted to be the head of the family.
He wanted to help his precious son become the young master. Unfortunately, he failed last time because Ling Chuxi's return angered Ling Mofeng and ruined his good deeds. Ling Ziyun foolishly fell into the Chai family's trap again, facing
The challenge to Chaikezhou was even more unsightly, and even he felt that he could not hold his head high.
