Chapter 148: The civil strife of the Wang family

Wang Dan’s funeral finally ended.

Wang Yun originally planned to go back to Luoyang, but because Wang Yun's wife fell ill due to excessive sadness, Wang Yun stayed for another day or two.

But what Wang Yun didn't expect was that something happened to the Wang family that he didn't want to see but was expected. It was about the problem of the Wang family's heirs.

Wang Yun has now been surrounded by members of the Wang family.

After Wang Dan's death, the head of Wang Yun had an heir. Although there was no requirement in this era that the head of the family could serve as the next head of the family, Wang Yun had always been the one who had said the same thing and even treated Wang Dan as the heir. He often brought Wang Dan by his side and asked him to learn from him how to be a high-powered head of the family.

Unfortunately, Wang Dan didn't learn anything else in Luoyang, and he learned this dandy style of fighting cocks and dogs. Wang Yun was extremely disappointed, but he had no choice but to remind Wang Dan from time to time. Fortunately, Wang Dan was smart and never caused any trouble for Wang Yun, except for the time he met Liu Yu.

After experiencing the kidnapping incident, Wang Yun sent Wang Dan back to his hometown in Taiyuan for maintenance, and used his relationship to seek the position of chief clerk for Wang Dan from the governor Ding Yuan.

Originally, Wang Yun hoped that Wang Dan could inherit the position of the head of the Wang family, but with Wang Dan's death, his dream was also destroyed.

Now the members of the Wang family have begun to argue about the position of the heir of the family head.

Wang Yun's younger brother Wang Qi danced the most happily.

Since Wang Dan's death, Wang Qi has not taken Wang Yun seriously. As a big family, it is impossible for the Wang family to have no heirs, and Wang Qi's son Wang Tao has the highest voice.

So this time Wang Qi took the initiative to lead members of the Wang family to Wang Yun's home and forced Wang Yun to make a decision.

"Brother, we are all very sorry for the death of my nephew. But our Wang family must have an heir. You are the current head of the family. You must think carefully about this matter." Wang Qi said with disrespect.

Wang Yun said with a frosty face: "Second brother, Dan'er's body is not cold. Now, don't you feel it's chilling to mention this?"

Wang Qi smiled slightly and said, "Brother, as the saying goes, the matter is urgent, and my nephew is dead. Although we are very sad, we should look forward even more. While you are in Taiyuan, make a decision as soon as possible to avoid any accidents."

Wang Yun looked at the others and said, "Do you all mean the same?"

Since Wang Yun has always been talking nonsense, the rest of the Wang family habitually dare not respond to his words.

Seeing that everyone else was silent, Wang Qi was anxious and said, "Brother, everyone has the same idea as me. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to tell you about this today. You are not young anymore. If there is any dispute over the position of the head of the Wang family, it would not be great. So if you can make a successor to the head of the family now, that wouldn't happen."

"Who do you think can be the heir to my Wang family's head?" Wang Yun asked.

Wang Qi smiled and signaled to the others.

A member of the Wang family came forward and said, "Master, after discussion, we thought Wang Tao was the best candidate."

"Wang Tao? Haha, it turns out that it's your second brother, you're trying to do it." Wang Yun smiled.

Wang Qi also smiled and said, "Brother, don't think wrongly. Tao'er's talent is outstanding among the younger generation. Even the dead Dan'er cannot compare with him. He is the most suitable heir to the head of the family."

"Second brother, you seem to have forgotten that my family leader can designate an heir. I object to Wang Tao becoming the heir of the family leader." Wang Yun said playfully.

Wang Qi smiled and said, "Brother, Tao'er's heir to the head of the family was the result of everyone's discussion. Your firm opposition made me unsatisfied. I have to use other methods to maintain our decision."

"What do you want?" Wang Yun showed murderous intent on his face.

"Brother, you are no longer suitable to be the head of the family. You abdicate and give in to the wise." Wang Qi said sinisterly.

"Haha, dismiss me? Could you be the head of the family?" Wang Yun smiled.

Wang Qi said lightly: "If others do not object, I, Wang Qi, are willing to take on this responsibility."

The members of the Wang family all agreed and frequently led them. Wang Qi was even more content to see this.

It seems that these people are here to force the palace today. Wang Yun laughed furiously and said, "Okay, I didn't expect that after so many years, you still miss the position of the head of the family."

Wang Yun looked at him deeply and asked back, "Are you the head of the family? Are you worthy? Do you know that the Wang family has today's glory, and it's all my credit? Without my support from the court, do you think you can gain a foothold in Bingzhou, a place of tigers and wolves? Without my existence, can you resist the erosion of other families?"

"Brother, don't worry. If you can do it, I can do it too." Wang Qi didn't care.

Wang Yun looked at the others, but the rest of the Wang family gathered next to Wang Qi. Wang Yun suddenly felt very helpless, and he seemed to have been abandoned by the Wang family.

"Okay, I didn't expect that I, Wang Yun, would be today." Wang Yun said sadly.

Wang Yun took out the token of the head of the Wang family - a jade pendant carved with the word Wang. This was a piece of beautiful jade obtained by the first head of the Wang family through a merchant in the Western Regions. It was rosy in its entirety, especially with a yellow circle in the center. The first head of the Wang family carved a jade pendant with a skilled craftsman and became a token of the descendants of the heads of the family.

Wang Qi looked at the jade pendant representing the power of the Wang family and swallowed a deep saliva.

Wang Yun put the jade pendant in front of Wang Qi and said, "Second brother, if you want to be the head of the Wang family, then you can take this jade pendant."

Wang Qi took it and kept stroking it. Decades ago, Wang Qi wanted to get it, but now he finally got what he wanted.

"From today on, Wang Qi, you are the head of the Wang family, and I will never pay attention to anything about the Wang family. Please take care of yourself." Wang Yun was very disappointed.

Wang Qi played with the jade pendant and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry. Under my leadership, the Wang family will definitely be more prosperous."

Others also came to congratulate Wang Qi on becoming the new head of the family.

Wang Yun looked at Wang Qi coldly, knowing that this guy had already started to dream of spring and autumn. When he thought that he was no longer the head of the family, Wang Yun felt that he had no face to stay in Taiyuan.

After Wang Qi and the others got what they wanted, they left Wang Yun's mansion in a crowd.

After everyone left, Wang Yun was left alone.

After sighing, Wang Yun sat helplessly on the ground.

After Wang Yun's wife recovered a little, Wang Yun took her wife away from Taiyuan. Until he died, he did not return to this place of birth.
