I Dont Own This Story
Da Che is enlightened, The prince confesses
"Xue'er, no matter what they do, in short, you have to try your best to help us, otherwise, Fang Shuyun will not let you go!"
Fang Detang suddenly got up and stood up, staring closely at the daughter in front of him, and immediately turned and left!
Fang Shuxue's complexion changed again, and finally she set her sights on her parents and younger brother Fang Zhizhi.
However, Fang Zhiming, who looked gloomy, opened his mouth to say something, but didn't say anything.
Fang Dexiu brought his wife, children and grandchildren back to the inner courtyard of the main house. He sent the younger generation out, and angrily said to his wife and children: "Follow me to the study!"
Fang Mingda and the three brothers still haven't figured out why his father suddenly became furious.
It was just their parents' orders, and they dared not disobey them, so the four of them, mother and son, followed into the study.
Fang Dexiu, who was sitting in the study, saw them coming, and yelled at his three sons: "Beast, kneel down for me—"
"thump-"
The three brothers all kneel in front of their father. Although they can be regarded as elders, they have only one identity in front of their parents, that is, sons. No matter how old they are, they should kneel in front of their parents.
Zhang Qiuting looked at her husband who closed her eyes again, and then at her son kneeling on the ground. She hesitated to speak, and sat quietly on the side.
In the whole study room, there was only the sound of breathing, and the atmosphere became a little weird. The three brothers Fang Mingda began to feel uneasy.
After a stick of incense, Fang Dexiu, who had his eyes closed, asked at this moment: "Do you know your mistake?"
The three brothers looked at each other, and they all saw the surprise and doubt in each other's eyes, but no one responded actively.
"It seems that you don't know!"
At this time, Fang Dexiu slowly opened his eyes, stared at the three sons in front of him, and continued: "I know why you choose to stand with your third uncle, because you have the position of patriarch in your heart, and you all Want to be the head of the house, and you—"
Speaking of this, Master Dexiu turned his eyes to the person sitting next to him, looked at his wife with sharp eyes, and said: "Your vanity does not allow you to give up your current position as the wife of the head of the house, so you will win over your wife." If you are a member of the family, serve them as the backstage, and hope that if your son wins the fight, you will be safe and secure!"
"—" Zhang Qiuting's face was slightly embarrassed, she turned her eyes away and dared not meet her husband's piercing eyes.
"Actually, you are all right. What you want is considered normal. However, I would like to ask you, there is only one Patriarch. Which of your brothers is willing to give up? Like your third uncle, pull your own backer, and then fight with your brother to the death?"
Speaking of this, Fang Dexiu asked his wife coldly: "What about you, are you sitting in the position of the head's wife and watching your sons kill each other, no matter who lives or dies, you don't care. Just sit in the position of the mistress' wife?"
"—" Zhang Qiuting's face gradually turned pale, and she bit her lips tightly unconsciously, but she still didn't speak.
After Fang Dexiu glanced at her, he turned his eyes to his three sons, with a half smile, and asked: "If Dafang doesn't want to be the head of the family, you are indeed qualified. Speaking of qualifications, only Dafang can." Do you really have the qualifications? Do you know that the Dafang is the relegation line? And I just took the right. Of course, I have this ability, and the Dafang is willing to give it up and not fight with me to the death. Today's situation."
"What about you, I can see your ambitions, and I know very well in my heart, no matter who you are, you will not be willing, this is not surprising, because I used to be the same, but, you know the word 'patriarch' Does it mean something?"
Fang Dexiu looked extremely serious, pointed at his eldest son, and asked, "Tell me about it!"
"The head of the family is to take responsibility for the entire Fang family, develop the family, and make the family stronger." Fang Mingda said solemnly. At this moment, he finally somewhat understood why his father suddenly became angry.
"Okay, not bad!" Fang Dexiu nodded expressionlessly, and said: "If you are the head of the family, how can you do what you said?"
"Of course it is to work together with the family to train the younger generation well and unite against outsiders!" Fang Mingda continued to respond.
"Good, good, good!"
Fang Dexiu continued to give three good words. As an evaluation, he turned his gaze to his second son, Fang Mingyang, and asked, "Tell me, too, and tell me what you think!"
"The head of the family is to handle all the family's problems well, to be dignified internally, to take good care of the clansmen, to be powerful externally, and not to be underestimated by anyone!"
"That's right, then tell me how to do this!" Fang Dexiu's eyes flashed, and he continued to ask.
"Unite as one, everyone in the family can obey orders, improve your own cultivation, and don't let others be bullied!"
"Okay, not bad!"
After Fang Dexiu commented, his eyes turned to his younger son, and he continued to ask: "What about you, do you have any different answers? Do you want to add to the answers given by your two elder brothers?"
"Father, don't all patriarchs do this?" Fang Mingping replied in a deep voice, without expressing anything.
Looking at the three sons in front of him, Fang Dexiu didn't get angry or scold anyone, but nodded and said: "Your ideas are good, but the truth is not as simple as you think. I don't want to say anything else, I just want to ask Let me ask you, if you are the patriarchs now, how would you deal with your third uncle and your uncle? Remember, you are the patriarchs. Remember, what you said just now is the patriarch's responsibility and responsibility, what should you do? ?"
The three brothers fell into deep thought, and no one spoke!
As time passed, the three Fang Mingda brothers were still kneeling on the ground, but sweat was slowly flowing from their foreheads. Considering their cultivation base, they couldn't sweat at all, but at this moment, they were all sweating.
Fang Dexiu looked at his son who had been speechless for a long time, and deep disappointment flashed in his eyes. The three sons were not stupid, but they were not suitable to be the head of the family. If someone without courage becomes the head of the family, it will only bring down the family down.
"Do you know what is the most important thing in a family?" Fang Dexiu said quietly, but he didn't let his sons respond, and continued: "In addition to needing juniors with abnormal talents, the most important thing for a family is a township that belongs to our family." God, that is the one with the highest cultivation, only the one with the highest cultivation sits in the clan, no one dares to be presumptuous to this clan."
"So, the Patriarch, not only must he cultivate talented disciples to become the pillars of the family, but at the same time, he needs a patron saint to help him guard the family. Such a patriarch is interesting to do. He can decide everything within the family. , externally, he can be proud of other forces, and only then can the family become stronger and be respected by everyone!"
Having said that, Fang Dexiu paused for a moment, turned his eyes to his three dull sons and said: "If there is a family in front of you, everyone fights to the death, you kill me and I kill you, what will happen to such a family? They are all dead, is it still a family? Outside, everyone wants to bully you, your land business, today this one will take this piece, tomorrow another one will take one piece, and the day after tomorrow another one will come, everything in your hands, They took it away, what do you have left? Can you beat one after another?"
"Your own family is killing each other. Do you think they won't take the opportunity to destroy you? Divide up your family interests? Do you think it's interesting for such a patriarch to do it? Can you feel the glory of being the patriarch? You all The sky has to provide food, clothing, housing and transportation for thousands or tens of thousands of people, as well as resources for everyone's cultivation. Do you think you can live in peace under this situation? No worries or worries?"
"When someone is desperate and betrays the interests of the family in order to destroy the enemy in his heart, as the head of the family, what should you do?"
"If there is a person who can immediately become the patron saint of the family, what should you do? Are you afraid that he will threaten your status?"
"Between the two, how do you choose?"
"If your cultivation has reached the level of a god emperor and you have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, but your family has long since disappeared into history, will you regret it?"
"You only think about your own interests, or should you think about whether to pass on the family? Let the Fang family stand undefeated in Qingyang City for thousands of years?"
Fang Dexiu threw out a series of questions, and then leaned on the chair and closed his eyes again. In fact, he had asked himself countless times these questions. Now, he also wants his sons to think about it question.
He had explained everything thoroughly and clearly, so that if his son would not choose, he had nothing to say, it would be better to directly return the position of Patriarch to Dafang.
After being the head of the family for decades, Fang Dexiu has completely changed from a selfish person to an old man who sees pioneering. If he makes selfish decisions for his own selfishness regardless of family inheritance, he will never again. There is no way to gain a foothold in Qingyang City, and he is really ashamed of the ancestors of the Fang family.
The three brothers in front of me are elderly anyway. After father's pointing out, if they can't figure it out, then they will have lived for decades in vain.
"Father, what do you mean, my child understands that the Patriarch is not doing it for his own glory, but for the sake of the family's better inheritance, everything must be for the family!"
Fang Mingda kowtowed to his father, he seemed to really let go, with a calm expression on his face!
Kneeling in the middle, Fang Mingyang also kowtowed to his father, and said in a deep voice: "Father, my son is selfish, he only thinks about doing everything for himself, and has never thought about what the family will face in the future, let alone what he has done. It will ruin this family, my child is wrong."
Fang Mingping said: "If there is no Fang family today, we are nothing. If we withdraw this family from Qingyang City, it will be useless for us to seize anything. If we make this family's position in Qingyang City more and more The higher we are, the more we are not the head of the family, and when we go out, people still have to respect us, so why not!"
After finishing speaking, Fang Mingping also kowtowed to his father, and the three brothers had spoken the truth.
At the same time, they have seen clearly that if there is any trouble in the family, it will only be their own family that will suffer, and other people will get advantage instead.
At this moment, Fang Dexiu was really relieved, with a smile on his face, nodded to his three sons, and said: "Get up, sit down!"
"Yes, father!"
The tone of the three brothers became much more cheerful, and they immediately got up and sat down on the chairs beside them.
Zhang Qiuting looked at her three sons, and then thought about her grandchildren. If the three sons really faced cannibalism for the position of head of the family, she would not be the wife of the head of the house and lose her own flesh and blood. She can't accept it!
She had never thought about this issue before, she just wanted to be the head of the family and snatch her own house, and she didn't care about anything else. Fang Dexiu's words just now reminded her of the cruel reality.
Therefore, she didn't talk anymore about this issue. After all, her husband and son were everything to her, and other things had nothing to do with her. She didn't have any thoughts in her mind anymore, just sat quietly like this.
"It has been accumulated for thousands of years, and once it is destroyed, sinners like you-"
Fang Dexiu sighed, and said: "Your third uncle is small-minded, narrow-minded, and has a personality of vengeance. For the things that happened back then, he did too much. It was his mother who went too far and framed your grandma several times. They didn't really kill their mother and child, it was just a little punishment, but your third uncle didn't distinguish between right and wrong, and instead killed your grandma!"
"Not only that, in order to attack your uncle and the first room, he actually used your grandfather. Instead, he let your grandfather die at the hands of others, and even asked his daughter to assassinate your cousin. Then his son Fang Zhizhi even secretly plotted to completely destroy Get rid of your party brother, with such a cruel and ruthless personality, he is like his mother, without any family affection at all!"
Thinking back on everything before, Fang Dexiu seemed to be a few years older. Although the three Fang brothers knew about the grievances of these elders, they didn't think much of it when they heard it before. Today, they are inexplicably chilled and afraid of these things. It also happened to his descendants, this kind of harm is really amazing.
Although cultivators have killed countless people, regardless of right or wrong, as long as they are beneficial to themselves, they can kill and take away, but that is only for outsiders, and they cannot accept it when it happens to their own flesh and blood descendants.
Therefore, at this moment, they understood that grabbing the position of Patriarch is far less important than their own people. If they are blinded by these things, they will not end well. What's the use of it.
At this moment, they understood their father's painstaking efforts!
At the same time, they also understand their father's choice, even if it is to give up the position of Patriarch.
"Father, uncle, uncle, will they—"
Fang Mingda mentioned the person he looked down on the most before, and he still felt a little awkward and unnatural. Now they also have to face this problem.
When mentioning Dafang, everyone present felt a little uncomfortable. No matter what, they had oppressed Dafang for decades, especially their juniors. People suppress and insult.
Thinking of this, they didn't know whether it was regret or shame, and none of them said anything.
After a long while, Fang Dexiu sighed softly, and said: "Actually, your uncle and his family are all good people, with personality like your grandma. Back then, your third uncle and I forced him to quit the position of Patriarch. He would rather quit than follow us." After the fight, after Minghe was abolished by Fang Zhizhi, he didn't really fight to the death with your third uncle, so don't underestimate your uncle, after all, he was banished from the big house, and he still has some strength in his hands."
"The reason why he didn't fight head-on with our brothers was to let us. He was willing to be bullied by us and couldn't gain a foothold. He moved to a remote place. He didn't want to see our family kill each other in exchange for the peace of the family. Otherwise, with him The strength back then was really going to compete with us to the end, how could we sit here so easily, and the status of the family would also drop because of this, let alone maintain the third place now."
Speaking of these words, Fang Dexiu showed a complicated expression on his face. Since he became the head of the family, as the days went by, he felt more and more generous and tolerant of his elder brother. The grievance and resentment gradually disappeared, but he respected and appreciated his elder brother more and more in his heart.
For the sake of his family, he can really give benefits and glory. However, compared with him, Fang Detang, the third younger brother, is really one in the sky and one in the earth. But let me tell you, our Fang family needs a god emperor to sit in the Fang family. On the contrary, if your third uncle's family has such a temperament of disregarding right and wrong and comparing every penny, it will only become the most terrible cancer in the family. , will eventually harm our Fang family."
"But, dad, are you really willing to return the position of patriarch to uncle?" Fang Mingping glanced at his parents and elder brother, and couldn't help asking this selfish question.
Human nature is selfish, even if they rob something that does not belong to them, if they really want to return it, they are still unwilling, not reconciled, as if someone wants to rob their own things, but they will not think about how they robbed them in the first place of.
His words made his father, Zhu Detang, take a deep look at him, and then nodded unabashedly: "Yes, I am not reconciled, so what, you are really not qualified heirs of the Patriarch in my heart, What's more, your sons have no strength, but instead develop a proud and arrogant personality, do you think they can bear it?"
"On the contrary, among your generation, I feel that Minghe, who has been bullied by you for decades, is relatively calm. You are too far away from him. Now, we hand over the position of Patriarch for the sake of the family's success in the future. Besides, as long as our juniors are outstanding, after decades or hundreds of years, our Yifang may not have no chance of being in power again!"
"—" The three brothers nodded silently. Although they were a little unwilling, they also knew that what their father said was the truth, and it was useless to continue to struggle.
"Wait a minute, let's go find Minghe and Shuyun together, it's time to explain clearly, if Sanfang continues to make trouble, our family will be in danger—"
Everyone in the gazebo chatted for two hours in a blink of an eye. No matter what kind of thoughts they had, in the process of chatting, I have to say that the chat was happier than the first time they met, and the conversation was much more casual. , the tone is also a lot more friendly, it is no longer a polite and enthusiastic way of perfunctory communication.
"Time won't stop for anyone, we've been nagging here for a long time, it's time to say goodbye to Miss Cheng!" Huangfu Shaojun smiled and cupped his hands to Cheng Xiaoxiao.
Princess Qiyu also nodded, and said: "My princess has been out for a while, it's time to go back, otherwise, the family should send someone out to look for it!"
The remaining two also nodded, they had stayed in Fang Mansion for quite a while, and they could see that there would be no disturbances for the time being, so it was time to say goodbye and leave.
Cheng Xiaoxiao got up to send them off, and said: "It's really inconvenient at home, so I won't keep everyone for dinner today. In a few days, we will hold a banquet in the restaurant to make amends. I hope His Royal Highness and the princess will show their respects at that time!"
"No problem!" Huangfu Yimo quickly took over the topic, and said with a smile: "Even if you don't invite me, this general will invite you out to play. When the time comes, you can't refuse. You can go anywhere you want, and this general will accompany you." you!"
"Big man, you are biased, and I am!" Xiao Yuteng stared at him unhappily, as if he had met a heartbroken man!
"Hahaha-"
Huangfu Yimo laughed heartily, and looked at her dotingly, "Of course you're fine, you can come to me anytime, I'll risk my life to be with you, how about it?"
"Cut, I'm not a gentleman, and I don't want to be a gentleman, I'm just a little woman!" Xiao Yuteng said disdainfully.
"Haha, villains and girls are hard to raise—"
"Big man, don't you want to smoke too, my aunt will help you loosen your bones, how about it!"
The angry Xiao Yuteng raised her fist and threatened Huangfu Yimo.
"Hahaha, no need, see you in a few days!"
The young general king didn't dare to offend the little witch's power, so he took the opportunity to retreat without saying hello to anyone.
Princess Qiyu also bowed her hands to Cheng Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyuteng, and said with a slight smile: "Miss Cheng, let's meet again in a few days, let's say goodbye!"
"Princess Qiyu go slowly!" Cheng Xiaoxiao bowed back and watched her leave.
As soon as she left, Princess Xinlan walked up to Xiao Yuteng, and at some point a beautiful blood jade bracelet appeared in her hand. She handed it to Xiao Yuteng, smiling sweetly: "Sister Yuteng, one of my sisters died young, If she is still around, she will be the same size as you, I like you, this is a little wish from me, I hope you can accept it, and come to the Great Prince's Mansion to play with me often in the future, okay?"
"Oh-"
Xiao Yuteng looked sideways slightly, turned her gaze to the person next to her, and saw Cheng Xiaoxiao bowed her head slightly, she took the bracelet and said: "No problem, I will often play with you in the future!"
Princess Xinlan naturally noticed Xiao Yuteng's little trick, she smiled apologetically at Cheng Xiaoxiao, and said, "Miss Cheng, I'm sorry, I really like Xiao Yuteng and treat her as my younger sister without your permission. "
"That's her blessing!" Cheng Xiaoxiao was still as indifferent as before, and she glanced at the little guy, instantly revealing a doting light in her eyes.
Princess Xinlan smiled, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first, and I'm waiting for you two to visit the First Prince's Mansion!"
"Okay, Princess Xinlan, go slowly!"
The three left first, leaving only the man in fluttering white clothes. Huangfu Shaojun did not leave immediately, his calm and calm eyes shone with brilliance, and ripples appeared in his calm, mirror-like eyes. His eyes seemed to overflow, the beautiful figure in front of him occupied all his thoughts, a faint smile slipped from his lips, and he stood there without saying anything.
Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes just turned to the direction where he was standing, and the two people's eyes just met, and the smile on Huangfu Shaojun's face became wider.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuteng flashed quietly and disappeared without a sound.
The person who was about to leave earlier didn't look like he was going to leave at this moment. She raised her eyebrows unexpectedly and smiled softly, "Is His Royal Highness staying for dinner?"
"This son wants to get together with you, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do so!"
Huangfu Shaojun only had her eyes on her, so he couldn't help stepping up to her, a wave of waves stirred up in his heart, his eyes were slightly bright with a magical light, staring at her, and said softly: "This son has always been looking for the one he loves. The position has been suspended for a long time, I don't know if this son can get her permission!"
"Love is destined, what is yours is yours after all, what is not yours, it is useless to force, I believe His Royal Highness will find his beloved!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao doesn't know if it's a confession, but she has something to belong to, no matter how good this person is, she doesn't have the slightest affection for him, she can only wish him a significant other that belongs to her.
Hearing this, Huangfu Shaojun's eyes darkened, and a brief moment of darkness flashed across his face. He quickly regained his composure and composure, smiled, and said: "This son will not give up, you are right, yes The sons and daughters of this life will always belong to this son, and I hope that my first son and concubine will soon marry into the Third Prince's Mansion!"
"Oh—" Cheng Xiaoxiao responded lightly.
He pulled his lips and smiled silently. The green lake in his eyes was sparkling and deep. He stared at her deeply and said with a smile: "We will meet soon!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out. Shengxue's white clothes swayed lightly in the wind, leaving her with a unparalleled back view.
"Hee hee, little master, I like you, what should I do?" Xiao Yuteng appeared again, looking at her with a smile.
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't know why, just now the other party's mind was fluctuating, she could naturally feel it at such a close distance, she couldn't help but shook her head and smiled: "He doesn't really love me, it's just a good impression, as long as we haven't seen each other for a long time, he Will soon forget about me, there will still be other women who will win his favor and love again!"
"Well, I feel sorry for the nerd, he is doomed to fail!" Xiao Yuteng smiled more happily, not at all looking sad for others.
Cheng Xiaoxiao went back to the gazebo and sat down for a while, poured herself a cup of spiritual tea, and asked casually, "Is there any problem in the yard?"
"No, everyone is making good progress. Except for Grandpa Zu, everyone else is about to break through and be promoted!"
"As long as it's okay!" Cheng Xiaoxiao said softly, then with a flash of eyes, she asked again: "How are the people in each courtyard, when are they going to act?"
"Hee hee, my lord, I'm afraid we won't make a big fuss, wait for an accident to happen!"
Although Xiaoyuteng was also chatting with everyone in the gazebo, her spiritual consciousness covered the entire Fangfu intentionally or unintentionally, not to mention watching people's every move, and occasionally listening to what people in the courtyards were saying, so , I know some things more or less.
"Uh, there are such things!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't ask any more questions, she didn't take the little things of Fang's house to heart at all, she tasted spirit tea leisurely.
Xiaoyuteng is still his favorite fruit, and he started to gnaw on it again, and asked while eating: "Little master, neither the prince nor the princess is easy to use, and they have not given up trying to win you over, what should we do? "
"Cold salad!"
The red lips parted slightly, and Cheng Xiaoxiao uttered two words without raising her eyelids, "Just now I have expressed our attitude, they can do whatever they like!"
"Hee hee, my lord, compared with their little things, I want to see them all fall in love with you and marry you. When our son-in-law comes back, he will see a bunch of rivals waiting for him. It will definitely be fun, hahaha—"
At the end, Xiaoyu laughed happily, no matter how you look at it, she is gloating!
Cheng Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at her indecently, ignoring her boring topic.
"Xiaoyuteng, why are you smiling so happily?"
Fang Minghe's voice came from the other side, Cheng Xiaoxiao heard the voice and looked around, just in time to see his uncle and grandpa walking towards here.
Cheng Xiaoxiao got up to greet him until he entered the gazebo, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, why did you come out?"
"I wanted to see if Xiaoshizi and Xiaojunzhu had left. Seeing you two joking here, it seems that they have gone back!"
Fang Minghe sat down, Xiao Yuteng had already put away other used things, filled him with spiritual tea, and said with a smile: "Master, the two princes didn't want to leave just now, and they all stared at the young master. Woolen cloth!"
"Hahaha, you little girl, what, do you want to find a uncle for your little master?"
Fang Minghe didn't know about Cheng Xiaoxiao, after all, Fang Shuyun didn't explain it, and Cheng Xiaoxiao wouldn't take the initiative to say it.
Xiao Yuteng curled her lips, and said arrogantly: "Hmph, my uncle has long been in my family, but our uncle is not at home. If he comes out, all the princes will stand aside!"
"Oh, so Xiaoxiao has a husband's family?" Fang Minghe looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao unexpectedly, he was a little curious in his heart, what kind of man was attracted by such an excellent girl .
Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't hide his intention, and said softly: "It's an engagement, the two are not married yet!"
"Bring him back later to show uncle and grandpa. If he is unqualified, uncle and grandpa will choose a better one for you!" Fang Minghe finally put on the airs of an elder in this matter.
Xiao Yuteng was beside him with a smirk, as if he was looking forward to seeing my uncle appear to be made things difficult for him.
When it came to the person in his heart, Cheng Xiaoxiao rarely talked more, and said: "He, he is not an outstanding person, he is stingy, chatters, likes to meddle in his own business, he does things like a child, and he does whatever he wants. Grandpa take care of him!"
"Well, girl Xiaoxiao, it seems that you like him very much!" Fang Minghe is someone who has been there, so he can naturally see the affection in her eyes!
