Chapter 452: The Battle for the Throne
Bai Mansion, meeting hall. Read
At this time, there seemed to be a faint smell of gunpowder in the hall.
The air seemed to be much more solidified.
An old man with white hair and beard sat in the main seat, with a gloomy face.
Beside the old man, there stood a beautiful figure.
It was none other than Bai Bailing, the eldest daughter of the Bai family.
Xiao Lan had told Ye Qianxing about the situation of the Bai family before. Bai Bailing's mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to her, and her father was also killed in a sneak attack ten years ago.
In other words, Bai Bailing's life experience is actually very pitiful. Both her parents died when she was young, and she was raised by her grandfather Bai Tengfei.
Bai Tengfei is the current head of the Bai family. He has only one son, Bai Bailing's father.
After Bai Bailing's father died, he only left this daughter, no son.
In large families, blood inheritance is extremely important. Although Bai Tengfei is the head of the Bai family, he has no children now, only a granddaughter, which naturally attracts the covetousness of those who are interested.
At this time, there were two rows of people sitting on the left and right sides of the hall, all of whom were representatives sent by the Bai family's side branches, and it was obvious that they were here with bad intentions.
"Master, in fact, we came here this time because we have important things to discuss with you."
An old man who was sitting in the front and whose status was second only to Bai Tengfei stood up, cleared his throat, and spoke.
"What is it? Tell me."
Although Bai Tengfei was old, he had been the head of the family for decades after all.
Even though he knew that the visitor had bad intentions, he was not at all flustered at this time, and he still sat firmly on the throne of the head of the family.
"Master, you are old, and you must have gradually lost your ability to handle family affairs, so I suggest that you should give up your position."
The old man smiled and said.
Hearing the old man's words, the representatives of the side branches on the left and right sides of the hall were expressionless, and it was obvious that they had known about this matter for a long time.
Including Bai Tengfei, he also had a calm face, and the encounter was expected.
"Grandpa is in good health and will definitely live a long life."
Bai Bailing on the side hurriedly said.
Bai Tengfei is her only close relative now, and she will never allow others to say bad things about Bai Tengfei.
"Bai Ling, I didn't say that the head of the family can't live a long life, but can you bear to see him worrying about family affairs at such an age?"
The old man was eloquent and said such words directly to block Bai Bailing's mouth.
What else can Bai Bailing say? If she insists on letting Bai Tengfei be the head of the family, wouldn't it tell others that she doesn't care about grandpa's health?
Seeing that Bai Bailing was blocked by the other party's words, Bai Tengfei sighed.
My granddaughter is still too young and too naive.
He waved his hand, signaling Bai Bailing not to speak, and then spoke.
"Bai Zhenfei, what you said is not wrong. I am indeed old and it is time to give up the position of the head of the family. In this case, Bailing, you should prepare to take over the position of the head of my Bai family."
Bai Tengfei said.
Bai Zhenfei and others below changed their expressions immediately.
However, Bai Zhenfei was well prepared and had expected this to happen.
So he forced a smile again and said.
"Brother, our ancestors have never let women be the head of the family. Letting Bailing be the head of the family may be a bit against the rules."
"Oh? Then who do you think should be the new head of the family?"
Bai Tengfei said with half-closed eyes.
"According to the rules, the next direct descendant of the current head of the family should take over, but nephew Zhenyu encountered an accident, and you have no offspring now, so we all agree that Bai Xianxin should succeed to the position of head of the family."
"Xianxin is the first among the young generation of my Bai family. This is obvious to everyone, so it is the expectation of everyone to let him be the head of the Bai family."
Bai Zhenfei said confidently.
Bai Xianxin is his grandson and his pride. His talent is the strongest in the entire Meteorite Town.
"It is the popular choice. So, you all think so too?"
Bai Tengfei heard Bai Zhenfei's words, and saw that the other representatives of the side branches were silent, so he looked at them and asked.
"Ahem, uncle, I do think Xianxin is the most outstanding descendant of the younger generation of my Bai family. If he succeeds to the position of the head of the family, the Bai family will develop better."
Soon a middle-aged man stood up and spoke.
Then several people stood up one after another, and what they said was similar to the middle-aged man in front, saying how good Bai Xianxin was and that he should succeed to the position of the head of the family.
After a while, all the representatives of the side branches present chose to support Bai Xianxin as the head of the family.
Bai Tengfei's face obviously darkened.
In fact, when Bai Zhenfei and others applied to open the family council at the beginning, he had more or less guessed these, but he didn't expect that Bai Zhenfei could actually win over all the people of the side branches.
But it was impossible for him to give up the position of the head of the family.
"What if I don't agree?"
Although Bai Tengfei was unhappy, he still tried his best to suppress his anger.
He is still the head of the family. As long as he disagrees, it will be useless even if these people have made a decision.
The head of the family has a veto power.
