Chapter 1072 The Guo Family Cannot Be in Chaos
Dealing with Guo Tianlin was just a means to throw the Guo family into chaos.
5 wives, 4 sons, 6 daughters, the head of the family was suddenly killed, and of course, fighting among each other followed.
By the way, Guo Tianlin also has a younger brother, Guo Tianyang, who is also no pushover.
In this situation, all parties will probably compete for the position of patriarch, and a smooth transition will be absolutely impossible. This is a common problem in large families.
"It has the style of the Lin family."
Lei Zhen is quite familiar with this kind of family because he has played with them before.
People were fighting for the position of heir even before I died, let alone after I died suddenly, the fight will of course be even more intense.
"Guo Tianlin's wife is named Wang Yan, 57 years old. She has not been able to give birth to children for the Guo family. She has been worshipping Buddha all year round and has not paid attention to worldly affairs. She can almost be said to be invisible."
"Second wife Lü Qing, the eldest daughter of the Northwest Lü family, is 53 years old and has given birth to a son and a daughter. She holds a high prestige within the family and can almost be considered the principal wife."
"Han Yuechun, the third wife, is 45 years old and has one son and two daughters. She is the second daughter of the Northwest Han family and comes from a more privileged family..."
Yao Yu introduced the situation of the Guo family. Except for the eldest wife who did not give birth to children and was marginalized, the other four all gave birth to sons.
Each of the sons was eligible to inherit, and all four wives came from families in the northwest, and none of them were single-handed heroes.
In such a situation, the mother's family will give their full support to ensure that their sons take the throne.
"Where is Guo Tianyang?" Lei Zhen asked.
"Guo Tianyang is Guo Tianlin's biological brother. He is fair and just in his work and enforces family laws and rules. Everyone in the Guo family respects him very much," said Yao Yu.
"Um."
Lei Zhen nodded, and had a rough idea in his mind.
Guo Tianlin's sudden death this time was mainly due to the fight among his four wives, and also involved a fight among four families.
This is much more complicated than the Lin family back then.
But no matter how complicated it is, it ultimately comes down to a battle for succession, but it won't last too long and will be over in a short time.
"Sleep, nothing to do tonight."
Lei Zhen lay in bed and slept. He needed to get enough rest because he had to go to Guo's house tomorrow to start his series of operations.
…
The Guo Mansion was in chaos.
Some cry, some shout, some make noise, some make a fuss.
No one expected that Guo Tianlin would be assassinated suddenly. He died without leaving a word, which caught the four wives off guard.
They had been trying to find an heir for their son, but before they could find any results, this unexpected incident happened.
This was not good news for Second Madam Lu Qing, because her son was the eldest son and most qualified to inherit, but it had not been confirmed yet.
But for the other three wives, this was the best news, because the eldest son had not been confirmed, so they all had a chance.
"Master, what are we going to do now that you're gone? Woo woo..."
"Dad! Dad! Wake up, wuwuwu..."
There was a lot of crying, all from filial sons and grandchildren, and it was all the most sincere expression of emotion. After all, crying was necessary at this time.
Even if you pretend to cry, you have to cry your heart out.
At least they don't want to give others a reason to criticize them, so they are all performing hard - maybe there is true emotion, but the true emotion is almost negligible at this juncture.
To some extent, a large family is similar to a small imperial court. How can there be so much love? Guo Tianlin married so many wives, but they were actually marriages of convenience.
He even said that even if he died, his sons would be happy because they would finally have the chance to sit in that position.
"My dear sisters-in-law, please accept my condolences. Now is not the time to cry. We must put the overall situation first." Guo Tianyang said in a deep voice: "I have cut off all contact with the outside world. I hope that you will..."
"Tianyang, what do you mean?"
"The master has just died, and you are going to rebel?"
"What do you mean by cutting off our connection with the outside world? Guo Tianyang, what do you want to do?"
“…”
Several ladies were shocked and asked questions at the same time.
The connection with the outside world has been cut off, which means that there is no way to notify her parents' family, which means that there will be major changes in the competition for inheritance.
Guo Tianyang might even become the sole authority, and then no one would have fun.
"We will keep it secret to prevent unrest." Guo Tianyang continued, "I ask for your cooperation, sisters-in-law. Once the next clan leader is determined, we will naturally announce it."
"Guo Tianyang, what qualifications do you have..."
"I have the qualifications. Please calm down, sisters-in-law, otherwise I will punish you according to the family rules!"
A word of family discipline made the ladies shut up, because Guo Tianyang was indeed qualified and he controlled the family discipline.
In this case, it is undoubtedly the most important.
The handling method was also calm and experienced. All external communications were cut off immediately to ensure that the information would not be leaked.
Otherwise, the families of the four ladies would rush over immediately, not to mourn, but to serve their own king.
Only by identifying a new heir as quickly as possible can the Guo family be stabilized; otherwise, such a large family may be destroyed.
"Wow, Master, why did you leave like this, leaving us an orphan and a widow..."
The crying sounded again, expressing sadness.
Guo Tianyang didn't say anything more about these four ladies. Let them cry. Fortunately, the news was blocked.
But the next step is not easy to deal with either, as the heir is a big problem.
If the issue of heirs is not handled properly, it will still be a big hurdle for the Guo family.
At this moment, the butler hurried over and said a few words to him.
Guo Tianyang's face suddenly changed. He immediately dropped what was happening here and walked quickly towards the front yard.
Jinju is here!
He wanted to close the door and refuse the visitor, but the visitor was the deputy director of the Public Opinion Bureau, so he couldn't do that no matter what.
The door opened and Jinju walked in with a group of people.
"Director Jin, why did you come here so late at night? I wonder what's the matter?" Guo Tianyang's face was full of respect.
"Patriarch Guo was assassinated." Jin Ju said solemnly, "I rushed here as soon as I received the news."
What are you rushing here for?
No, and no need to say.
Guo Tianyang had no way to refute it, because the woman in front of him was in charge of the investigation department, and no movement could be hidden from her ears.
"Thank you, Director Jin, for your concern. We can handle this matter properly." Guo Tianyang said in a heavy voice, "Please Director Jin..."
He was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"The stability of the Guo family is closely linked to the entire northwest environment. What you need to do now is keep this a secret and quickly select a new heir."
"The Guo family cannot be in chaos, and chaos is not allowed!"
"If you need help from the Public Opinion Research Bureau, please speak up. The Guo family needs stability, and the Public Opinion Research Bureau needs stability even more!"
He didn't say he wanted to stay, but every word he said was about staying.
Because this matter is not only about the Guo family, but also about the Public Opinion Survey Bureau. Since the deputy director is here, he must take charge for the Guo family.
Choose who not to participate, but maintain stability.
