"You keep saying that blood ties are more important than anything else, but do you have anyone worth showing off from your direct lineage?"
His attitude is too crazy.
The faces of several temperamental elders of the Ji family suddenly sank and they felt humiliated immediately.
They haven't spoken yet.
Ji Hongyuan tried to smooth things over and said with a smile, "Mr. Lei, you may not be aware of the rules of the Independent Continent. We have this rule of direct lineage inheritance, so it's normal for everyone to care about this matter."
Leonard didn't give him face, and threw the used tissue on the table with a sneer: "Oh, so the independent state is becoming more and more decadent."
"What do you mean!" Someone slammed the table and stood up.
Some people also warned him gloomily: "This is not your M continent, watch your words!"
The atmosphere between the two groups in the box, which was harmonious at the beginning, became tense.
Ji Ziyin stood up at this time and said, "Dear elders, please listen to me."
Several elders of the Ji family could no longer sit still and wanted to leave.
Before they left, Ji Ziyin said in a calm and steady tone: "I know everyone is concerned about my status as a branch of the family, but the elders should also know that Ji Nan is not qualified for the position of the head of the Ji family... Now the whereabouts of the head of the family are unknown, and the Ji family urgently needs someone to stabilize the situation. I am willing to help the family overcome the difficulties. If the elders are still not satisfied with me afterwards, I will give up my position and let someone more capable take over my position."
"Everyone present here is my elder."
She looked around at everyone: "I promise that even if I become the clan leader, I will still respect everyone's opinions as I do now!"
Who isn’t a thousand-year-old fox that has become a spirit
Ji Zinyin's words were undoubtedly a promise to disperse the power of the clan leader in the future, so that all family affairs, big or small, would no longer be decided by the clan leader alone.
Aren’t these people coming here tonight just to get Ji Zinyin’s promise
Now Ji Ziyin stood up and made it clear that she would share power with them. The elders who had previously turned hostile and wanted to leave sat back in their original seats, relaxed their expressions and said, "It's not that we can't support you to take the position."
"Jinan will be back soon."
They care about this.
Xie Yun couldn't just sit there and wait for death, and as the elders, they couldn't unite and attack her just when her husband's life or death was unknown.
It would be too embarrassing if it got out.
Ji Ziyin knew the hypocrisy of these people too well, so she smiled and said, "He and I are in fair competition."
"Jinan has no background. Behind me stand the hidden family and Her Majesty the Queen. All the elders made their choices based on the interests of the family. Even if they spread it out, everyone can understand the choices of the elders..."
"… "
The biggest support behind Ji Nan is Ji Lingfeng.
But now Ji Lingfeng's whereabouts are unknown, and there is a high possibility that he is dead.
Behind Ji Zinyin stands a powerful hidden family. Her Majesty the Queen even sent one of her right-hand men, Mr. Lei from the Privy Council, over here. This is enough to explain everything.
With such an obvious gap, everyone knows what to choose!
**
The next day.
"When will Ji Nan come back?" Xie Yun received the news early in the morning and learned that several main elders of the Ji family had had a private meal with Ji Zinyin yesterday.
She walked around the house early in the morning with a frown on her face, and from time to time she asked people around her about Ji Nan's news.
The servant answered her patiently, "The young master boarded the plane six hours ago. It takes more than ten hours to fly from Continent F, so the young master should still need some time."
