Chapter 2158 2163 Xiao Zetian's intention
Xiao Zetian raised his eyelids, moved away from the book, looked at Xiao Yun, and said inscrutably, "Do you know why the lonely king asked the Zhao family to give those two lists in three days?"

"This..." Xiao Yun scratched his head, looking very distressed. He is good at fighting and killing people, but he is really close to scheming, so he tried to analyze: "Your Majesty thinks that those who participated in the attack on us have nothing to do but die. Besides Zhao Jun and his son, there must be other people, so the Zhao family should hand over the rebel party to avoid future troubles? And let the Zhao family submit the patriarch candidate list, is it... is it..."

Xiao Yun thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out, and received a look of disdain from Xiao Zetian.

Xiao Zetian turned his eyes back to the book again, and said calmly: "You can just look at the usefulness of these two lists... Your first priority right now is to arrange the queen's bedroom, go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty..." Xiao Yun walked away in a daze.

Early the next morning, the old man in the Zhao clan who was second only to the dead father of Zhao called together the people who spoke up in the clan to discuss the matter.

The old man's name was Zhao Yan, and he was an old man with a gray beard who was about sixty years old.

Zhao Yan is in charge of the Ancheng Chamber of Commerce, he is a very shrewd old man.

Seeing that everyone was here, Zhao Yan stroked his beard and said, "The old man summoned all the clansmen today, and everyone knows what the so-called matter is. Now Ancheng has been re-divided into jurisdictions, and it belongs to the fiefdom of the Qin Kingdom, King Qin Xiao Zetian. Then His Royal Highness the King of Qin The method is obvious to all the Zhao family. The old man also went to move the corpse for a day yesterday, and today his bones are still hurting! Today is different from the past. Our Zhao family lost tens of thousands of soldiers overnight, almost nearly Eighty percent of the combat effectiveness. Now the Zhao family is like a tiger with its teeth pulled out. If the remaining descendants of our Zhao family are not careful in management, I am afraid that we will follow in the footsteps of the old patriarch and Zhao Jun!"

What Zhao Yan said, everyone was silent, but there were many active people inside. Seeing that the old patriarch died and the position of patriarch was vacant, there was an opportunity to take advantage of it!
Zhao Yan's second younger brother, Zhao Yu, is in his 40s and is in his prime. He rolled his eyes and said, "Brother is right, the Zhao family is facing an unprecedented crisis, we must unite and tide over the difficulties together! Now The old patriarch is dead, and the Zhao clan has no leader. It seems to me that our first task is to elect a new patriarch! The new patriarch must be highly respected and capable. Only in his prime can he lead the Zhao clan to grow. "

As soon as Zhao Yu said this, people from all branches of the Zhao family lowered their heads and exchanged glances with their own family members.

The position of patriarch is a favorite, and everyone wants to be it.

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, Mrs. Qian immediately took the lead and said, "Of course the position of patriarch should belong to my son! My son is the direct descendant of the patriarch's line. Now that my father-in-law and husband are dead, their status and wealth will be more important. , should be inherited by my son!"

In the past, when Zhao Jun's father was the head of the clan, Zhao Jun, the county guard, supported him, and the position of the head of the clan was as stable as Mount Tai. Now that both father and son are dead, only the youngest son of Mrs. Qian is left in Zhao Jun's clan. , only six years old.

A six-year-old milk baby, without the protection of his father and grandfather, even if his mother came from a prominent family, the Qian family, would not be able to be the head of the patriarch.

Zhao Yu doesn't take the widow Mrs. Qian seriously now, and immediately sneered: "Mrs. Qian is joking, our Zhao family is such a big family, it's possible that all the men are dead, and we need to help one A six-year-old milk baby is in charge? Mrs. Qian, you should take your son home and be a widow, don't come out and show your face!"
