LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 49 - Parting
Xia Qian looked at this nephew in front of him, all the time he felt that although this nephew was intelligent, he was a little too soft in his actions.
Lack of their Xia family has always been the blood, therefore, Xia Qian is a little worried, Xia Chen went astray, will only use some of the dark power plot, like a snake hidden in the dark.
But look now, he was indeed wrong.
This nephew of his is clearly a combination of rigidity and flexibility, yin and yang coordination, likes to think a lot, but is not lacking in thunderous means.
Three generations, on the martial arts talent, Chen child is not the most outstanding, but on the mind, the younger generation, there is no one can be compared to him, when I grow old, perhaps Chen child to carry the family heavy responsibility, by him at the helm, so that my summer family not only has a power fist, and the brain, the future can also be in the prosperity of a hundred years!
Xia Qian fell into deep thought, from the performance of Xia Chen during this period, courageous and resourceful, really is a natural candidate for the family head.
The reason the Xia family has been able to prosper for 600 years is because they have never been conventional, whoever has the ability and wisdom will be the head of the family.
Xia Qian was also like that, focused on the family, even though his two sons were both very good, but compared to Xia Chen’s view of the big picture, they were still a little inferior.
Uncle, I am ready to move out of the Marquis House!
Just as Xia Qian was thinking about the Xia family’s future plans for the next hundred years, Xia Chen suddenly opened his mouth, causing Xia Qian’s heart to jump.
What are you doing, moving out of the Marquis Mansion for a good reason, is it because your court is too remote and has too few subordinates, I’ll ask someone to make arrangements later!
Xia Qian frowned, his gaze a little stern, Xia family 600 years, very few first disciples will move out of the Marquis House, but all those who move out of the Marquis House, it represents the separation of the family.
‘That’s not why!’
Xia Chen shook his head with a smile on his face, his temperament was as warm as jade, making people feel like a spring breeze.
‘You want to break up the family?’
Xia Qian frowned even more, he was just thinking about the future in the future, let Xia Chen take the heavy responsibility of the family, good training, the future will be the head of the family position to him, the results are now Xia Chen even want to move out.
It’s not that the separation of the family isn’t serious, but nowadays I’m no longer fit to live in the Marquis’ house!
Xia Chen took a sip of tea, soothing Xia Qian’s emotions, and then said this slowly.
His Majesty attaches great importance to our Marquis House, but our Marquis House is also a little uncomfortable, the Lord’s high merit, since ancient times.
The reason why our Houfu can still be so prosperous is because now the world is not yet unified, the world is not at peace, so His Majesty still needs our Houfu, but he is extremely jealous.
I now have a somewhat special identity, the Houfu direct line, but also Imperial Son-in-Law, His Majesty is trying to draw me in, from the fact that he will transfer me into the Lamplighters can be seen.
He may also have other plans, such as using me to split the Xia family, the best thing is to split the Xia family into two branches.
In the eyes of outsiders, I have not been valued in the Marquis House since my childhood, and my parents are even more indifferent to me, and I was raised in the wild, so they all think that I have a bad relationship with the Marquis House, and even His Majesty feels the same way.
That’s why His Majesty chose me, so the next thing I can do is not show that I’m too close to the Marquis House, and the Marquis House can’t treat me too well.
Xia Chen slowly opened his mouth, Xia Qian’s eyes shifted, he wanted to retort, but in the end, how could he not open his mouth, before he finally said in a deep voice.
“Is it really as serious as you say? Over the years, both your grandfather and I have taken the initiative to hand over military power, and your father has also been honest and peaceful, could it be that His Majesty still cannot tolerate us?
Even if we don’t have any dissenting thoughts, a united Marquis of Zhen Dong with many talented people is too much of a threat to the imperial power, which is something that no emperor would want to see.’
Xia Chen’s eyes flickered with sun, moon and stars, as deep as a black hole, dark and silent, his tone was eerie, making people tense uncontrollably.
His Majesty has been on the throne for more than 50 years and has long since turned into a political machine, anything that threatens his rule and is out of his control will be destroyed by him.
Xia Chen looked at Xia Qian with an incomparably serious expression.
So, His Majesty wants to see our Xia family divided, wants to see you hostile to us, wants to see the three generations of our Xia family not united, then we will play it out for him to see, so he can rest assured, and then secretly build up our strength, is that what you want to do?
The light in Xia Qian’s eyes flowed as he stared at this nephew in front of him, his tone incomparably serious.
‘Right, the worse my relationship with you is, the more trust His Majesty will have in me, the more power he will give me, and the safer our Xia family will be!
Xia Chen locked eyes with Xia Qian, at this moment, he no longer hid his sharpness, the whole person was like a sharp blade coming out of its sheath, this confident aura made Xia Qian’s gaze blur.
After a long time, Xia Qian spoke slowly.
I understand what you mean, you go, just do as you say!
……
The Next Day!
Lamplighters Government Office, Eagle Eye Division!
It’s already this hour, why hasn’t the new director come yet, I still want to see how he’s going to make a move today!
I heard that the rotation will start today, this adult, although young, but the heart is really hard ah, I heard that yesterday Zheng Hall Master they took the initiative to go forward to request rotation, but this adult hard to let the three of them at the door to kneel for three hours before letting them go in.
This lord is extraordinary, of course he asked for rotation, but in the end, Lord Zheng and the others had to take the initiative to ask for it, actually handing the knife to this lord and letting him cut ah, this tactic is really powerful!
The crowd chatted and chatted, but seeing that it was almost noon, Xia Chen had not yet come to the Lamplighters.
”Something’s wrong, don’t wait, it is estimated that the new adult will not come to our Government Office today!’
Someone hurriedly ran into the Eagle Eye Division.
What happened, is there another change?
The crowd hurriedly inquired, and then they heard shocking news.
A piece of news had reached the upper echelons of the capital, leaving many people stunned.
Recently, the front page of the capital’s man of the moment, the one who had won His Majesty’s appreciation and was now in control of one of the nine divisions of the Lamplighters’ Eagle Eye Division, the youngest Marquis of Zhen Dong, His Majesty’s son-in-law, Imperial Son-in-Law, had started a fire in his backyard.
This shocked many people, huh? The Marquis of Zhen Dong’s residence is on fire, why don’t you put it out quickly!
‘ Put out what fire ah, the Imperial Son-in-Law of Zhen Dong many experts who can really fire ah, is this extra horse harnessed by the side of a team and the Imperial Son-in-Law of Zhen Dong fell out, I heard that are now directly moved out of the Marquis of Zhen Dong!
My cousin aunt’s brother’s daughter-in-law’s brother’s brother-in-law’s sister-in-law’s son saw with his own eyes that Xia Chen is now leading his men in the selection of the yard it, have paid, it seems to really be from the Marquis in the separation of the family out.
What exactly is the matter then? It’s not a small matter to make such a fuss about splitting up a family, and there doesn’t seem to be any example of a direct descendant of the Marquis moving out of the Marquis for so many years.’
I don’t know ah, I only heard that it is very serious, the Xia family head, the Anwu Marquis Xia Qian, but have called the clan elders, personally moved the family law, I heard that almost to be expelled from the genealogy of the Xia Chen it!
……
In the capital, from the top to the dignitaries, down to the three religions, ordinary people, at this time all heard about this matter, restaurants and teahouses, all in the discussion of this matter.
For a while the whole capital was abuzz.
At that time, the main character of the hot search, Xia Chen, brought Xia Qian to move into the newly purchased three large courtyards!
Behind him was a beautiful maid, none other than Bi Zhu!
‘Young Master, are we going to the Lamplighters tomorrow?’
Xia Qian followed behind Xia Chen and asked in a small voice, just entered the main Lamplighters, it’s not easy to rule those people obediently, a long time not to go, I’m afraid there will be a change.
‘Tomorrow rest day, the day after tomorrow to participate in the Literary Gathering, as for Lamplighters side, let the bullet fly for a while!’
