There is no doubt that Li Yun can sit here, whether it is ability or loyalty. This old guest of the Ren family is more handsome than most of the Ren family's children.

Below him, there were three uncles of Ren Daoyuan, all of whom were at the top level of the Earth level. Then there were several loyal servants of the family who had already changed their surnames to the Ren family. Although they were not blood relatives, they were also considered to be members of the Ren family. Similarly, the lowest cultivation level was also at the bottom of the Earth level. There were many masters of the Ren family, and there were very few who could participate in the clan meeting. What the aristocratic families care more about was not the strength of their martial arts, but loyalty.

Next, the third generation of children, led by Ren Daoyuan, followed by the second brother Ren Xiaoyao, followed by the males from the three uncles. Fengyu Empire was considered to be an adult at the age of eighteen, and children and women were not allowed to attend the clan meeting.

Apart from the elders of the Ren family who lived in seclusion, there are not many people in this main hall, less than 40, but they represent the class with the most say in the Ren family. At the same time, it can also be said to be the strongest combat power of the Ren family.

A family can gain a firm foothold in the Fengyu Empire and Yanqing Mansion. In addition to having enough power, money and connections, the most important thing is naturally powerful force.

Seeing that everyone was here, Ren Fuqing coughed lightly and said, "My relatives and friends, today we have gathered everyone to the main hall to discuss something. Yuan'er is now twenty years old. Some time ago, he made a marriage with the strange girl of the Huo family. I think that he can make this son the heir to the Ren family. What do you think?"

Silence for a long time.

Ren Daoyuan looked at him coldly, and everyone looked different. He was obviously thinking about something, but no one was willing to speak out. Since what happened ten years ago, Ren Daoyuan has long lost interest in the position of the head of the Ren family. He cared more about whether the realm in his dream was true or false. If it was true, what could a head of the Ren family have?

If the dream is false, a person trapped by such dreams is really not qualified to be the next head of the Ren family. Do you want others to say that the Ren family has a head of the family who sleeps for eight hours a day? Isn’t this a joke?

"I object." After a full incense stick, the first one to jump out to object was Ren Xiaoyao, the second brother sitting in the first place under Ren Daoyuan.

After the age of ten, Ren Daoyuan's life was extremely regular. He spent eight hours sleeping every day, shopping one hour, and dealing with eating, drinking and chores. The remaining two hours were naturally used to practice martial arts, so he was not close to his family.

Ren Daoyuan doesn't know much about this second brother. He only knows that he is just like him, taciturn and obsessed with martial arts. He is two years younger than him. This year, he has just reached the age of being able to participate in the clan meeting and has a medium-level cultivation level.

Just looking at his cultivation level, he is not much worse than himself. After all, he is two years younger, but when it comes to the time to practice martial arts, there is a lot of difference. Ren Daoyuan needs a lot of time to sleep, and he only takes two hours to practice martial arts every day, while his second brother Ren Xiaoyao starts dancing when he hears the rooster until midnight, and he has to practice at least five hours a day.

In this way, the talent of practicing martial arts is much worse than that of Ren Dao.

"Yao'er, tell me the reason for your objection." Ren Fuqing said without changing his face. He had known for a long time that a dispute over the successor was inevitable, and in fact, he was also shaking in his heart.

The inheritance of aristocratic families is mostly the eldest son of the house and the eldest son. As long as there is no big mistake, it will not change. This is a custom and is also to reduce the occurrence of tragic events such as brothers' siege.

Ren Xiaoyao stood in the middle of the hall with a hint of nervousness on his face, but he still raised his chest and looked up, talking: "Father, mother, uncles, and the aristocratic families are mostly the eldest sons, and they have their own reasons. I won't say much about it here. But the situation of my Ren family is a little different. Although the eldest brother is not at fault, I think everyone knows his situation."

Ren Fuqing and Liu Yuanmeng looked at each other. Ren Fuqing's expression was very complicated, while Liu Yuanmeng looked worried. Although the Ren family is not bad, the population is not particularly prosperous. Among the third generation of males, not only are not many outstanding, but the number is far less than that of other families. The couple is not willing to see too many dirty things caused by brothers' competition.

However, the three uncles nodded repeatedly and smiled. The three uncles each had their own descendants, but among these people, they were either young or first-class playboys, and none of them could compare with the eldest son. Not to mention the two sons Xiaoyao, who had a tough personality, even the sleepy eldest son Daoyuan, they were much better than them.

In addition to the three uncles, most of them were like this. They obviously looked more optimistic about Ren Xiaoyao. The eyes of Ren Daoyuan were very complicated and there was a hint of regret.

Ren Xiaoyao saw the changes on everyone's faces clearly, his chest was raised higher, and his waist stood straighter, and continued, "The elder brother's achievements in martial arts are still above the younger brother. Xiaoyao never denies this, but the leader of the clan is responsible for leading the family and becoming prosperous. He is not the strongest person in martial arts. Otherwise, the head of the Ren family should not be his father."

This is a little bit too much. Fortunately, the Ren family is a sensible person and will not find such minor problems. At least Ren Xiaoyao is right. If the strength of the force is based on, Ren Fuqing is definitely not the number one master of the Ren family. Not to mention the legendary star-level elders of the Ren family, at least two of the hidden elders must be stronger than Ren Fuqing.

Ren Xiaoyao bowed to his father in the throne and said, "My father is now in his prime and can continue to lead the family to glory. The position of heir is only a temporary decision, in case it is not necessary from time to time. But I believe that the elders know the importance of this inheritance position to the aristocratic family. If you choose elders, how will the many aristocratic families in Yanqing Mansion view my Ren family? How will the imperial family view my Ren family? Please think twice."

Liu Yuanmeng lowered her head and said nothing, not wanting others to see her face. As a mother, he still hoped that the family business would be inherited by the eldest son, but what the second son said made great sense. Seeing the three uncles and loyal servants clearly looked at her two sons, this was really a troublesome thing.

The wife could bow her head and say nothing, but as the head of the family, Ren Fuqing could not do so. She could only raise her head and look at everyone with a pale face: "Yuan'er, do you have something to say?"

As the head of the family, he naturally wants to give his family a fair opportunity. Ren Xiaoyao has objected, and Ren Daoyuan can naturally refute it. And everyone knows that the eldest son of the house and the eldest son are all right and wrong, which is the most favorable counterattack. Just these eight words, no matter where they go, it makes sense. Moreover, Ren Daoyuan is better than Ren Xiaoyao in martial arts practice. Two hours a day is better than others' five hours.

Ren Daoyuan had a bitter smile on his lips, stood up, walked into the hall, bowed to everyone, said, "Elders, Daoyuan has nothing to say."

"Huh?" Everyone all expressed doubts. What kind of thought is this? Ren Daoyuan actually gave up his self-discrimination, and it was the most beneficial opportunity for him to distinguish himself.

After Ren Daoyuan finished speaking, he bowed again and sat back in his position, looking at his nose and nose, silent, looking at his body without saying anything.

After a moment of silence in the hall, everyone began to whisper and began to talk softly. Ren Xiaoyao stood in the hall with a verge of grimace. Looking at his elder brother Ren Daoqing, he couldn't say what kind of feeling he felt in his heart. For today's affairs, Ren Xiaoyao worked hard for eight years and made countless small moves in secret. But who would have thought that the elder brother would not accept the call at all.

Although Ren Xiaoyao worked hard for eight years, he knew very well that the tradition of the Fengyu Empire was not so easy to change, and it was related to all the nobles' interests. Even if he could get the position of heirs today, his future path would still be difficult, and he would be expelled by the inheritors of those aristocratic families.

Unless the elder brother does something that is angry with heaven and resents, and takes over the position of heir, he can only be justified and recognized by all nobles of aristocratic families.

Ren Fuqing coughed lightly: "What do you think?" Ren Xiaoyao could see clearly what was happening in front of him, let alone others. The affairs of the Ren family may not be entirely the affairs of the Ren family, but also the affairs of all the noble families in Yanqing Prefecture.

If an heir is excluded by others, it is better for the entire Ren family to let someone who only knows how to sleep all day.

"I am optimistic about Xiaoyao. What he said is the right truth. Although Daoyuan is good, if his sleepiness cannot be cured, it will be of no use to my Ren family." The first one to jump out was Ren Fuqing's second brother.

"That's right, I think the second brother is right." Then the third brother.

"Ahem... what the two brothers said is reasonable. It is undeniable that Daoyuan has his advantages, but he sleeps all day long and how to manage the family. If something big happens in the family and he can't sleep again, what should he do? The inheritance position is related to the interests of the entire family and needs to be considered thoroughly. As for the noble family of Yanqing, we will work together to find a way to solve it." The fourth brother's words are more detailed.

A top-rank loyal servant from the ground rank came out, bowed first and then spoke. After all, there was a difference between master and servant. Although their status was very high, they were not from the Ren family's bloodline after all.

"The old servant thinks that the second young master is more suitable. The head of the family is now in his or her age and can be in power for at least 30 years. These thirty years are enough for the families of Yanqing Prefecture to slowly accept the second young master."

Almost one-sidedly, the three uncles and loyal servant representatives all turned to the second young master Ren Xiaoyao. This result was not only a little surprised by Ren Fuqing, but even his mother Liu Yuanmeng raised her head and looked at her second son standing in the hall, as if she didn't know him.

Ren Fuqing felt that it was quite difficult. Almost everyone did not mention Ren Daoyuan and only agreed to be inherited by Ren Xiaoyao. This matter is very troublesome. As the head of the family, Ren Fuqing has his own considerations.

Both sons are biological, and it is no different for him who inherits them. But decades later, when he retreats or is away, the Ren family will be in trouble.

Without mentioning the reactions of the various families outside, it will be difficult to deal with within the family alone, and even cause major and irregular things. Any family has a considerable proportion of military power.
