Chapter 633: Trying to seize power!

Qianqiu City.

Tonight, the moonlight is dim and the stars are sparse.

The Chang family mansion is in a solemn and majestic hall. There is a long wooden table. The tables are all gray-haired and old men. These are the elders of the Chang family Presbyterian Church.

"The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the family cannot be without a master for a day. All elders, since Changxinglong is dead, they should choose one person to act as the head of the family and temporarily preside over the family affairs."

"The two clans are very virtuous, both moral and talented, and have strong strength. I think he is competent to serve as an acting position in the family."

The elder who was sitting at the table stood up and looked around and said.

Finally, when he sat down again, he nodded secretly to Chang Gaode, who was sitting opposite him. It was obvious that the two of them had already colluded.

"Since that's the case, then vote and decide!" These elders of the Presbyterian Church do not directly hold power. They only have one right, which is the right to vote.

When major events occur in the Chang family, the Presbyterian Church will make a decision through voting.

A total of more than 30 elders imprinted their opinions into the jade slip on the table through their soul perception.

This method is very confidential and no one knows the opinions of each elder. Doing so can prevent the elder from being coerced and doing things that go against his original intention.

Not long after, more than 30 jade slips were all thrown into a jade tripod in the center of the long table.

Soon, a light lit up in the jade tripod, and then words rose from the mouth of the jade tripod, and opinions appeared.

"One agrees, two agrees..."

"Ten agree, eleven agree..."

Everyone stared at the words, looking for opinions on agreeing to Chang Gaode as the "head of the family".

In the end, the number of agreed agreements was locked at nineteen.

This has exceeded half.

In other words, half of the elders who were working as the ones agreed to Chang Gaode and assumed the position of "acting the head of the family".

"Since that's the case, the second tribe's elder Chang Gaode will temporarily take over the position of the head of the family. When the year-long inspection period expires, the inheritance ceremony of the head of the family will be held and officially become a regular."

Sitting at the first position, a very elderly old man spoke slowly. Although he was old, his aura was extremely strong, and he was an ancestor of the Chang family's star realm.

"Thank you, ancestor Changye, thank you for your recognition. I, Chang Gaode, must carry forward our Chang family..." Chang Gaode's face felt unstoppable joy.

Although the result this time was as expected.

Because before this Presbyterian church was held, he had already made great benefits to many elders in private...

However, when the dust settled, Chang Gaode's inner excitement was still uncontrollable.

The position of the head of the family is his dream goal.

Although I am just an agent of the head of the family, after taking this position, it is almost certain to become a real head of the family.

After the Presbyterian Church ended, Chang Gaode did not rush to deal with family affairs, but hurriedly left the Chang family mansion and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.

...

The city lord's mansion, the living room.

"Chang Gaode, what should I do if I don't need to hand over to you? "Crown Prince Gu Donghai sat in the first seat, with Sun Duhong and the city lord Zhang Chunqiu standing next to him.

"Don't worry, your highness, I will clear all Chang Xinglong's confidant next." Chang Gaode's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.

If he wants to consolidate his position, the first thing he needs to do is naturally to kill dissidents.

"Don't rush to kill them. Detain them first. If you can, try to subdue them. Chang Xinglong has been the head of the family for so many years, and there are many confidants. If you really kill them all, your Chang family will lose their strength." Gu Donghai spoke completely in an orderly tone.

And he did this, not because he was ruthless, but because he did not want the Chang family's overall strength to suffer too much loss.

Only when the powerful Chang family is used by him can they exert great power.

"As soon as your highness told me." Chang Gaode nodded quickly. The reason why he could get what he wanted this time was entirely because of Gu Donghai's relationship. Without Gu Donghai's financial support, the great benefits Chang Gaode promised to other elders would not be able to be fulfilled at all.

"There is another person, please come and have a conversation for me." Gu Donghai grabbed a portrait on the table next to him and threw it to Chang Gaode.

Hurry!

Chang Gaode opened the portrait and was slightly stunned, "Chang Weiye?"

"That's right, it's him." Gu Donghai nodded.

...

Chang Weiye is Chang Yuanshan’s younger brother and Chang Qi’s second uncle.

When he was young, he once competed with Chang Yuanshan for the position of head of the Chang family.

However, Chang Yuanshan is strong and Chang Weiye is no match. Especially after Chang Yuanshan set foot in the starry realm, Chang Weiye completely died of fighting for the head of the family.

However, when Chang Gaode revealed Chang Yuanshan's death to Chang Weiye, his mind became active again.

In a restaurant, Chang Weiye walked back and forth, with an excited light flashing in his eyes, "Brother Gaode, what you said is true?"

He and Chang Gaode were both defeated in competing for the position of head of the family. They often drank together and had some friendship.

"Of course it's true." Chang Gaode nodded with a smile, "Chang Yuanshan and Chang Xinglong died together. If I lie, how could I get the power of acting as the head of the family?"

"Yes." Chang Weiye nodded and then said: "Your Highness..."

"Your Highness is just a word. As long as you are obedient, you will definitely benefit you in the future." Chang Gaode smiled.

"Then do it." Chang Weiye gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

Although doing this is to sell the Chang family, or even push the Chang family into the fire pit, what Chang Weiye cares more about is his own power and benefits.

Becoming the head of the family is not only his dream goal, but also his ability to obtain many cultivation resources, so that he can enter the star realm during his lifetime.

In the next few days, Chang Weiye made great benefits to the members of the Chang family Presbyterian Church through the wealth Gu Donghai gave him.

Five days later, the Chang family's Presbyterian Church was also held.

Chang Weiye also successfully won the position of acting head of the Chang family with more than half of the votes.

...

City Lord's Mansion.

A private banquet was held.

There were only a few members of the banquet, but everyone here is now a real big shot in Qianqiu City. Stomping your feet can cause an earthquake in the city.

Gu Donghai sat upright on the head seat, looking at Zhang Chunqiu, Chang Weiye, Chang Gaode, Sun Duhong and others drinking, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

After he returned from the Dongqiu Jade Mine, he had successfully held Chang and Chang'an families in his hands in just a week.
