Lu Tianqi's face turned pale with anger, and Lu Tianyue's chest also heaved violently.
The people standing behind their sisters spoke out and fought back.
"Fart! Lu Tianqi is the next Patriarch who was personally appointed by Patriarch Lu Zheng before his death. Why do you object?"
"You have no right to object at all! Today's Lu family is dominated by the lineage of Patriarch Lu Zheng. You people have been enjoying the success for so many years, and now you still want to rebel?"
"A bunch of stinky and shameless things who eat the master's lineage, use the master's lineage, live in the master's lineage, and hold the master's lineage... Now they want to go to the nest Account, you are a bunch of shameless things!"
"shameless!"
"Get out of Lu's house!"
"The Lu family doesn't need things like yours!"
The group of people behind Lu Tianqi and Lu Tianyue's sisters are all from the lineage of the Patriarch, and they are both prosperous and harmless with the two sisters, and their interests are completely tied together. Therefore, the position of the Patriarch cannot be allowed to fall by the wayside. Otherwise, they will never end well in the future.
Lu Tao looked at Lu Tianyue and Lu Tianqi with a sneer at this time, and said solemnly: "Although the head of the Lu family has the right to decide the next head of the house, if the head of the house is incompetent, the elders also have the right to remove the head of the house and re-elect a talented person as the head of the house." Today, since the words have come to this point, outsiders have already seen the joke, so let them see the truth! Just hold the elders meeting now, there are still seven elders in the Lu family, and everyone votes directly! Agree to dismiss Lu Tianqi as the representative The patriarch of the family stood up and let me see if I am the only one who thinks she is not qualified to be the patriarch of the Lu family!"
There were a total of nine elders in the Lu family before, and the Patriarch line accounted for five of them. On the side side, four places are occupied.
In addition, Lu Zheng, the head of the family, presides over the overall situation, the head of the family has always been able to easily overwhelm the branch of the Pangchen.
But now with the passing of the patriarch Lu Zheng and the two elders of the Jindan stage, there are only three elders left in the lineage of the patriarch!
As for the elders on the side branch, there are four left!
Except for Lu Tao, the other three elders were originally on the side of the branch. When Lu Zheng was alive, these elders could still consider the overall situation. Now that Lu Zheng was gone, these elders naturally all stood by Lu Tao's side.
If a meeting of elders is really held and a public vote is held, then the lineage of the Patriarch will undoubtedly lose.
Therefore, when Lu Tao said these words, many people on the side branch all showed joy on their faces.
More than 80% of the Lu family's current property is indeed established by the main branch, and it has been controlled by the main branch for these years. But this does not prevent the offshoots from all kinds of envy and jealousy, wanting to seize it.
Now the opportunity has finally come, as long as the elders meeting is held, Lu Tianqi will definitely be dismissed.
At that time, the entire Lu family will become the world of these offshoots!
The three elders other than Lu Tao were all promised huge profits. As long as Lu Tao becomes the head of the family, each of these three elders will get 15% of the Lu family property!
This is an offer you can't refuse!
Not to mention that the three branch elders were on Lu Tao's side, even if they were originally neutral, they would most likely waver in the face of this touching interest.
And the people on the side of the main branch all changed their faces after hearing this.
Especially the three elders of the main line, their old faces were flushed, angrily scolding Lu Tao and others over there for being shameless.
But cursing people now is meaningless at all, and it can't solve any problems.
At this time, Lu Tianqi suddenly sneered: "Really? Want to vote?"
"Yes, as the elder of the Lu family, I have the responsibility to consider the entire Lu family! Since you are not suitable to be the head of the family, then I must stand up and impeach you!" Lu Tao said sternly: "However, everything will be done. Follow the family rules. Even if you are impeached, the inheritance that belongs to your sisters will always be yours!"
"Do I still have to thank you?" A playful smile appeared on Lu Tianqi's face.
"No need, I'm also thinking about my family!" Lu Tao said lightly.
"Okay, let's vote." Lu Tianqi smiled coldly, looked at Lu Tao and said, "However, as the elder of the Lu family, and in front of so many people, you'd better speak clearly. As a result, do you recognize it or not!"
Lu Tianqi said, reminding with a smile: "Don't forget, you only have one chance!"
Lu Tao frowned slightly, and subconsciously glanced at the three branch elders beside him.
There is indeed a rule in the Lu family's family rules, which reads: If the head of the house is unworthy, the elders will have a rule to impeach the head of the house once. If successful, then the elders will need to elect a new Patriarch within one month after impeaching the Patriarch. And within five years, no second impeachment is allowed! If the impeachment fails, then the Elders will never have the opportunity to impeach the Patriarch in this term of Patriarch.
This is also to protect the rights of the main branch. It can be impeached because it is afraid that there will be such a fatuous and incompetent patriarch, who will lead the family to decline, but at the same time, in order to prevent the elders from being too powerful, they will be impeached at will. This kind of opportunity, during the term of each patriarch, the elder There will only be one time.
Countless years have passed since the day the Lu family was established in Jinxiu City, and the previous Patriarchs are all the kind of hard-working people. The wrist is also extremely clever, and no elder will be given such a chance at all.
Besides, impeaching the head of the family for no reason will also have a fatal impact on the elder's reputation.
Therefore, this family rule has never been used since the day it appeared.
Lu Tao didn't think of using this trick at first, he thought, relying on his own power, to nibble away the industry of the main branch bit by bit. Then continue to grow the power of side branches. In the end, there was no need for impeachment at all, and Lu Tianqi, the Patriarch's order, could not even leave the Lu family's gate.
At that time, the entire Lu family... will completely fall into his hands.
At that time, he does not need to bear any notoriety, so that his descendants can naturally become the next Patriarch.
That's what Lu Tao wanted.
But in order to prevent accidents, Lu Tao still secretly contacted the three side branch elders and promised them amazing benefits. The three side branch elders also readily agreed that when the matter developed to the point where they needed to use their voting rights to impeach the Patriarch, they would definitely stand by his side.
But looking at Lu Tianqi's determined smile now, Lu Tao suddenly lost his mind. He couldn't help but glanced at the three branch elders beside him.
The three branch elders all nodded slightly at Lu Tao, giving him a reassurance.
"Little girl's film... you actually play tricks with me? You are still young!" Lu Tao finally let go of his heart, and nodded with a sneer: "Of course! I, Lu Tao, keep my word! Today in front of so many people, For the future of the Lu family, I have to be this villain. I swear, I, Lu Tao, will approve of any results from today's elder meeting. If there is any violation, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"
