Chapter 1253: Who will inherit the Su family's legacy?
The Queen didn't know that at this moment, the old man of the Su family was in the Su family's ancestral hall. He was looking at the tablets behind the incense table, which symbolized the Su family's hundreds of years of glory. His lips trembled as he uttered earth-shattering words.
"A tree has many branches, but the main trunk cannot be changed. He is the eldest grandson of the eldest son's family and must inherit the Su family's lintel." Old Master Su trembled and said, "If he doesn't come back, then let him take away the ancestral tablets...!"
As soon as the old man of the Su family finished speaking, the group of Su family descendants kneeling behind him were stunned.
"Old Master, what do you mean by this?" someone asked in shock. "The ancestral tablets have been taken away. What should we do?"
"What should we do?" The old man of the Su family said, suppressing his regret, "Let's build another ancestral hall!"
A group of Su family descendants: "..."
This is...they were all separated?
"How can this be? Old man, aren't you kidding me?" someone shouted.
You know, clan is the foundation of a person.
Only those who have committed serious mistakes will be expelled from the clan.
Nowadays, even though the plaque on the Su family’s gate is gone, they still have the glory of their ancestors to verbally support their family.
No matter who says it, it cannot be denied that their Su family has been passed down for hundreds of years and has a glorious past.
Everyone has to admit how great their ancestors were back then.
If you don't even have this little thing to show off, then you will become a rootless duckweed and will be looked down upon wherever you go.
If that’s the case, would they still have the nerve to go out?
Although, I don’t have the face now.
However, he could always rely on the grace of his ancestors and not be looked down upon by others.
These tablets in the ancestral hall are their last resort!
What's more, this also involves their descendants and the future imperial examinations.
Being expelled from the clan means that one has a huge flaw, which will definitely affect his career.
If someone makes a fuss about this and impeaches, no matter how outstanding your children and grandchildren are, they will be implicated and will find it difficult to make a name for themselves.
They are not as confident as Old Man Su.
Old man Su built his own ancestral hall, and no one in the entire capital said anything about it.
Or use this as an excuse to impeach Old Man Su's family.
After all, almost everyone in the capital knows what’s going on.
Old Man Su was right.
If it were them, it would be a stain that could not be washed away by future generations.
Who would be happy with this?!
"Grandpa, this is absolutely not possible!"
"Old Master, I'm afraid you are too old and confused!"
"Old Master, you should go back to your room and take care of it!"
"Grandpa, if you hadn't done that foolish thing back then and expelled my uncle from the clan, our Su family would now be the most prosperous family in the entire capital..."
"That's right! Old Master, you were biased and committed such a serious mistake back then, not only did you bring disaster upon the entire clan, but now, are you trying to force us all to death..."
"Exactly! Old Master, you have a good plan. You are from the eldest branch of the family, so you are naturally not afraid of the division of the clan!"
"That's right, old master, you've calculated it correctly. When you die, even if the Marquis of Loyalty is unwilling, he will have to place your spirit tablet here."
"That's right, what a clever plan! We can't let the inheritance of a lineage end with you, right..."
"Oh! If Lao Ba hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought of this!"
"So that's how it is! Old Master, you are so cunning!"
…
With the shouting, the Su family members' awe of the old man gradually turned into complaints and accusations.
When it comes to their own interests, who cares who you are?
The old man of the Su family turned around, shocked and angry, looking at these descendants of the Su family in disbelief, as if they wanted to eat and tear him apart.
He was revered throughout his life.
Even though I have experienced great ups and downs and been repeatedly humiliated in the past few months, I never imagined that one day I would be accused and scolded by my own descendants in this way.
Yes, he had such a plan in mind.
Anyway, he is Old Man Su’s grandfather.
He handed the Su family's ancestral hall to Old Man Su to inherit. A hundred years after he passed away, Old Man Su would have to enshrine him in the ancestral hall.
There can't be a gap in the Su family genealogy, right?
In this way, the Su family prospered under the leadership of Old Man Su.
The tablet of the old man of the Su family is placed in the ancestral hall in a grand manner.
He was worthy of his ancestors and accepted worship from the promising descendants of the Su family, such as Su Laowu.
Life is complete!
The old man of the Su family had a very good plan, but he didn't expect that the descendants of the Su family, although useless, became smart at this time.
At this time, even the head of the Su family, who always respected the old man of the Su family the most, showed anger on his face.
The head of the Su family thought about how he had not only been demoted but also been ridiculed and mocked these days, and his face became increasingly grim.
Moreover, even if he does not consider himself, he must consider his descendants.
"The old man is old and his mind is confused. Su Xuan, Su Wu, take him back to his room to recuperate!" The head of the Su family ordered with a cold face, "Also, send someone to guard the yard to prevent the old man from wandering around and getting hurt."
As soon as the patriarch of the Su family finished speaking, the old man of the Su family's eyes suddenly widened.
Compared with the other members of the Su family, the treasonous words of the Su family head had a greater impact on him.
You know, the head of the Su family is his grandson, and he was the one who supported him.
Even the position of the head of the Su family was promoted step by step thanks to his efforts.
"Evil obstacles...Evil obstacles..."
The old man of the Su family pointed at the patriarch of the Su family, trembling with anger, his eyes went dark and his heart ached.
His own grandson wants to lock him up!
Two strong young men strode out and shouted, "Old Master, let's go!"
After saying that, they carried the old man of the Su family on their left and right and walked out quickly!
The old man of the Su family: "...let go..."
Before he could finish his words, he closed his eyes and drooped his head.
Su Xuan and Su Wu were startled.
Then, they looked at each other, carried the person and continued to walk out.
The descendants of the Su family inside and outside the ancestral hall all made way.
Everyone looked at the old man with his feet dragging on the ground and his head drooping. No one stopped him and no one said anything.
The head of the Su family closed his eyes with a sore nose, picked up a few incense sticks on the incense table, lit them on the candle flame next to it, inserted them into the incense burner, took a few steps back, and knelt in front of the incense table.
All the descendants of the Su family behind him also knelt down.
"Su Zhengyi, the 128th generation descendant of the Su family..."
As the head of the Su family spoke, the wind blew across the plaque above the ancestral hall, making a slight "clicking" sound.
**
Prince Ning's Mansion.
The Queen Mother was quite sad about the Su family's affairs, but she didn't say much.
After saying that, he looked at the grandchildren of the Su family.
