Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible
Chapter 407 The Ambitious Uncle
"What does uncle want me to do?"
Chen Guanlou asked directly without any roundabout tricks.
The uncle in the clan stared at him and said carefully: "If you have a way to make Chen Guanqing shut up and stop making trouble, that would be the best. If it is inconvenient for you to come forward, I can talk to Chen Guanqing for you if necessary. I guess he doesn't want to make a big deal."
How could Chen Guanqing not make a big deal? The other party wanted to make a big deal to the point where everyone knew about it. Chen Guanlou ate alone and had a big belly, which some people couldn't stand. Because Chen Guanlou was not a soft persimmon, except for his eldest sister, he had no soft ribs. In addition, he had a good relationship with the eldest house of the Marquis's Mansion, and he specialized in collecting antiques, calligraphy and paintings for the eldest master, and he had a say with the chief butler, so everyone would be patient and keep their troops in place.
But...
As long as someone takes the lead, a group effect will inevitably erupt, and then everyone will attack him. Even if Chen Guanlou did nothing wrong, he would suffer a great loss in the clan.
The clan judges things based on right and wrong, as well as weight.
In order to appease the so-called "public anger", a lot of blood will inevitably be shed.
Chen Guanlou pondered and had an idea in his mind, "Please help me, uncle!"
"Do you really want me to come forward for you?" The uncle in the clan seemed uneasy and wanted to confirm it.
Chen Guanlou solemnly stated, "Chen Guanqing is a rogue, I don't have time to argue with him. Uncle has a high prestige in the clan, and everyone is convinced. I believe that uncle will handle this matter fairly. I will bear all the expenses."
"Let's talk about the expenses later. Since you trust me, I will come forward for you. There are good and bad people in the clan, and this opportunity can also make the clan realize the problem."
When Chen Guanlou heard this, he understood that uncle wanted to take this opportunity to strengthen his influence and enter the clan elders' meeting.
Those clan elders are old and frail, and it's time to update them.
Uncle's ambition to become the executive deputy clan leader is obvious.
The patriarch of the clan is always leading troops in battles outside, and has no time to deal with the huge clan affairs.
Even if the patriarch is in the capital, he is busy scheming with people in the court every day. The clan affairs are basically left to the elders to handle on their own, and they are only responsible for giving silver, food and resources according to the rules every year. As for how these silver and food resources are distributed, the patriarch generally does not ask if no one complains below. Too busy, really don't have that time.
Even if someone complains, if it is not serious, it is also left to the elders to handle on their own.
The uncle obviously saw the opportunity, whether the patriarch is the patriarch or the prince inherits the position of patriarch in the future, there is no time to deal with clan affairs. The clan needs a person with strong ability, high prestige, good health and energy to serve as the executive "deputy" patriarch to share the worries of the patriarch.
The uncle's mind is very clear: who else but him!
Taking the opportunity to deal with Chen Guanqing, he took the opportunity to sort out clan affairs, point out problems, and get the appreciation of the prince. Take the opportunity to enter the clan elders' meeting and serve as the "deputy" patriarch.
As long as he has the support of the Marquis's Mansion, his plan will surely succeed.
This set of chain calculations is just in time. As long as every step is right, the clan will change a lot in the near future.
Uncle as the executive deputy clan leader?
Chen Guanlou calculated it for a while and it would not be bad for him.
He has long been dissatisfied with the old-fashioned people in the clan who rely on their age and seniority. He belongs to the high-income group in the clan and pays a sum of money to the clan every year, which can also be called "donation" or clan member fee. No matter what the name is, he has paid a lot of money, and he does not have to enjoy the benefits, but the poor families who should enjoy the benefits have not enjoyed them.
Let alone other things, just say that the private school in the clan has to pay money to subsidize it every year, but not every child can go to study.
The clan elders pinched the quota and collected the so-called tuition openly and secretly. This kept a group of poor students out.
However, Mr. Du's tuition was given by the Marquis's Mansion. The clan did not have to pay a penny.
The noon meal every day was also paid for by the Marquis's Mansion, and the clan didn't have to pay for even a grain of food. Even so, the children in the clan had to bring their own food for lunch when they went to school.
It was obviously deducted.
The uncle did not publicly express his intention to join the clan elders' meeting and serve as the executive 'deputy' clan leader. Chen Guanlou also pretended not to know, and only said that if the uncle needed it, he would fully cooperate.
It's time for Chen Guanqing, that birdman, to taste the power of clan rules and the power of social death. That guy bullies the weak and fears the strong, and he is relatively restrained in front of Chen Guanlou. When bullying other clan members, his behavior is very bad.
Chen Guanlou does not participate in clan affairs, and often hears various rumors about Chen Guanqing.
Just as the two of them had agreed on this matter, someone came to invite them.
It was said that the prince Chen Guanfu invited Chen Guanlou to meet in the second entrance study.
"The prince wants to see me?"
The servant nodded, "Indeed."
"The prince actually knows me?" Chen Guanlou was surprised. He thought the prince was a man of few appearances, just like many noble sons of the time. He didn't expect that he knew him and wanted to see him after just a few days of returning.
"Brother Lou, come with me. There are many people here today, and people waiting to see the prince are queuing up. Don't waste time."
"Okay, okay, you lead the way. This lively atmosphere is even worse than when the eldest master was here."
"That's different."
"How is it different? Tell me."
"The eldest master likes quietness and doesn't like socializing. Unless it's an important matter or an important person, usually no one would bother the eldest master. The prince is different. He doesn't mind dealing with mundane affairs. Therefore, many people take this opportunity to get to know the prince and report things."
"The imperial court's errands haven't come down yet, the prince should be quite free during this period, no wonder he has time to deal with worldly affairs. Today, many people came to visit, and the prince still had time to see me. I didn't know I was so important."
The servant seemed to be a servant of the prince, and knew some things, "Maybe it's because you completed the last mission very well."
"You mean the time of transporting goods. It's been a long time, not worth mentioning."
The servant glanced back at him, looking at his serious look, but it was difficult to suppress the corners of his mouth. It turned out that he was saying one thing and thinking another.
Chen Guanlou was a little bit arrogant. He relied on his mouth cannon to fool an eighth-grade peak warrior. If he told others about it, who wouldn't say it was awesome.
Although he lost one thousand taels, the butler later replenished it for him. All in all, he made a lot of money.
Walking through the corridor and the courtyard, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. The maids and servants serving were all well-trained, and their movements were gentle, trying not to make any noise.
Finally, he reached the second entrance of the study, a huge courtyard, with courtyards within courtyards.
He thought that the study was a room for reading and writing.
The study of the Marquis's Mansion was a courtyard within a courtyard, with twenty or thirty rooms.
He was led to the side room to rest.
The maid was very polite. As soon as he sat down, tea and snacks were brought to him. The temperature of the tea was just right, the snacks tasted very good, and there were also vernacular novels to kill time. If you are impatient to read, there are several pictures of ladies hanging on the wall for appreciation.
In short, everything is just right, making people feel comfortable from the inside out.
