Chapter 0173 Transfer of Position

At this moment, hundreds of people gathered together, all looking at each other and saying, "Here we come

Ye Mengqiu seemed very tired and walked to the center like pouring lead, saying, "Thanks to the kindness of our ancestors, we have been striving forward through generations. Now, one of our descendants, Ye Qing, has passed the imperial examination and improved our family's status. I am old and frail, how can I stop this new blood replacement? I hereby announce to the whole clan that we will pass on the position of head of the family to Ye Qing. In the future, everyone should obey his orders, unite as one, and strive for the revitalization of the family

At this point, a joyful light flickered in Ye Mengqiu's eyes, gradually fading again. He waved his hand and said, "Come up, I'll pass on the family seal to you

The crowd fell silent for a moment, all looking at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing understood in her heart that this person was still a bit unhappy. "How can we stop the replacement of new blood with old age?" There was a thorn in her words... But in the end, it was the inheritance of the throne, and if the old man wanted to vent this resentment, let him vent it.

At that moment, he straightened his expression and solemnly bowed, saying, "My son Ye Qing is foolish, but it is better to obey orders than to be respectful. I am willing to accept this position

Ye Mengqiu looked at her and said some words about treating her family well, respecting the elderly and loving the young, and being harmonious with her neighbors. Seeing that Ye Qing had been kneeling for a long time and could not delay, she waved her hand and picked up the bronze seal representing her family's position, then handed it to Ye Qing.

According to the regulations of the imperial court, gold seals are used for families above seventh grade, and copper seals are used for families below seventh grade. No matter how large the family is, only copper seals can be used.

Ye Qingxing gave a big gift, took it, stood up, and held up the golden seal to show it, which immediately attracted a burst of cheers.

Greetings to the head of the household! "Then, Ye Zifan was the first to bow down, followed by all his uncles bowing down together and paying their respects.

As soon as they bowed, a little light gold fell into Ye Qing's aura. With this traction, the rolling red aura on the ancestral hall suddenly shifted and fell down.

Ye Qing's body shook, and a pillar of qi rushed out. Although it could not be compared to the heavenly pillar of the imperial court, it also rushed out of the top of the palace. A feeling of power arose with every movement and gesture!

Then, the family fortune kept entering their own fortune, flowing endlessly. In just a moment, Ye Qing's fortune turned into a pale golden color.

Almost at the same time, in the thousands of acres of farmland in the distance, strands of white qi officially condensed and formed, turning into a white red stream that flowed through and joined the family's fortune.

There is also a hint of Head's aura emanating from the top of Ye Qing, which changes the family's fortune and adds a few strands of black and gold to it.

This is precisely why Ye Qing received support from his family, which in turn elevated his family status, making it a win-win process.

Uncle, please rise up. You are all my elders, and I dare not accept this great gift! "Ye Qing only had a moment of confusion, but then realized that this was because he had passed the imperial examination and his rank was already very high. It was not difficult to receive the family status of these three thousand people.

In an instant, Ye Qing accepted the change in her status and said, "However, since we have reached this point, we have to accept this ritual. This is the ancestral rule, and it is for the sake of our family's legacy

At this point, Ye Qing raised her hand and saw hundreds of people standing up, then smiled and said, "But I still need the support of my uncles. Although I have been under seal for a short time, I have been thinking a lot in my heart

Ye Qingzheng spoke in a deep silence, his voice resounding: "It has been two hundred years since Duke Xiaoren arrived, and the heads of our families have been diligent and hardworking throughout history. From one hundred acres to three thousand people now, the total number of acres is seven thousand

Ye Qing glanced at the person below and said, "I am not talented. I passed the imperial examination by following the fortune of my ancestors, and now there are ten thousand acres of land newly added. The family has crossed this red line. Some people say that as long as we slowly map it out, we will become county lords within twenty years. This makes sense, but it's not what I thought - this is just an ordinary county lord, and the families in the county are at the bottom

And although it seems peaceful at the moment, there are actually many dangers. Just the Northern Wei provoking the border is a big problem. If we don't handle it well, all the noble families in this county will be empty. If they are attacked by the army, there will be nothing left

At this point, everyone couldn't help but feel a commotion as Ye Qing suppressed his smile and said, "Everyone knows that besides being a two rank Jinshi and a seventh rank observer, I also hold the title of Nanlian Male

This title is illusory, but what if there is military merit? It is not impossible to ascend to the rank of Marquis, or even compete for a hereditary viscount

At this point, my Ye tribe can truly be considered prosperous, no less than the old county lords. "Ye Qing said with a straight face and a deep bow," For this, please help me

This statement is profound and motivating, and everyone immediately understood the young master's thoughts. However, they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to rush into the county and make everyone prosperous.

Immediately everyone responded, 'I am willing to do my best for the prosperity of the family!'

Today is a big day, and since we have this consensus, I won't say much! "Ye Qing smiled slightly and said," Uncle, I'm sure everyone is ready and it's getting late. Let's have the banquet together. I'm already hungry

With these words, everyone immediately smiled, and the atmosphere relaxed. Ye Qing waved her hand and said, "Grandfather, please go first

Ye Mengqiu smiled and responded, with a hint of loneliness in her eyes, still walking ahead.

Ye Qing followed closely behind, but there was no need to argue about this occasion. At a glance, the red aura that had originally condensed in Ye Mengqiu's body had shifted halfway in this short period of time.

After carefully distinguishing, I couldn't help but take a cold breath in my heart. Only 20-30% was left and it was still shifting.

Watching Ye Mengqiu only for a moment, with unsteady steps and a desolate back, Ye Qing couldn't help but feel deeply moved. The difference was too great.

If the actual position is very important, the position of a noble Hanlin official is only five or six points, the position of a non working official is only three or four points, and the retirement and retirement position is only one or two points.

Officials are like this, and the position of the clan leader is also the same. In a moment, the power of luck still lies in the body, and in the blink of an eye, it will wither and become unrecognizable. How can one be indifferent?

But it has to be like this, where there is no luck, there is no power. If one still holds power after retirement, it is like treating their actual job as a puppet. In this situation, there are multiple branches of government and internal conflicts, which may be worse than not passing on the throne!

The mansion became busy, and the prepared grand banquet was in the hall. A rain proof tent was also set up on the open space, presenting food and drinks one by one.

Ye Qing followed the old tradition and offered silver as a reward, with each household receiving ten taels of silver, which immediately drew even greater cheers.

And the core of the Ye family is gathered at a small banquet on the upper floors outside the building, which is a wedding banquet.

Uncle! "Ye Qing took a chance and pulled Ye Zifan. Ye Zifan was stunned and quickly followed the new head to the corner to talk.

Uncle, although my grandfather has retired, his treatment should be taken seriously and not diminished in the slightest

Ye Zifan was taken aback and smiled, "You're overthinking it. My father has been the head of the family for decades and his prestige is still there. Who dares to cut off his treatment

Ye Qing pondered for a moment, stared at Ye Zifan, and said, "Do you know about the Emperor Xiaode and Emperor Rencheng of this dynasty

What

I read history books, and Emperor Xiaode ruled for 23 years, making him a wise ruler. In his old age, before abdicating, the Imperial Household Department, which managed the emperor's treatment, was already on the verge of becoming a crystal rice

Seeing that Ye Zifan still didn't understand, Ye Qing spoke slowly and clearly, "Don't you understand? This crystal rice is a fairy seed, and long-term consumption can prolong life. It's not bad for use in the prince's mansion, but it's inferior to green corn

Emperor Xiaode has been in power for 23 years, and before passing the throne in his old age, the people below dare to exchange green corn and offer crystal rice, but flatter the Crown Prince. What kind of negligence is this? The tea has already cooled down before the people go

Ye Zifan suddenly understood, leaned forward, and said hoarsely, "Isn't it like this

Ye Qing smiled and said, "The favors involved here are unavoidable. Grandfather may not consider it, but I cannot ignore it, so I want to build a house specifically for him

Fang refers to the administrative agency within the clan. Ye Qing spoke calmly, "This room is specifically designed to handle the treatment of retired tribal chiefs, not to be confused with the current internal planning room. It is dedicated to funding, personnel, and accountability - this treatment cannot be reduced in the slightest

Ye Zifan was stunned when he heard this, and turned around alone for a long time before reluctantly responding, "Master, what you said is that I will go and do it tomorrow

In just an instant, Ye Qing truly rose to the position of "head of the family"!

After saying these words, music happened to play. Of course, the Ye family doesn't have this grandeur in ordinary times, but today everyone takes it for granted.

The steward of the kitchen, commanding the people, presented dishes one after another, and Ye Qing truly returned to the table. As it was a private banquet, Ye Mengqiu still held the main position. Ye Qing invited several uncles of his own relatives to sit in front of him, and he sat a few rows later.

What caught everyone's attention was having Qianqian sit with her, but everyone had cultivation and only glanced at her in secret without looking too much.

Qianqian still felt that no one was paying attention, so she chuckled and said, "Young master, you hinted that you wanted to increase your treatment. This is a big bribery

What she said was not about Ye Mengqiu, she didn't know yet. What she said was that she wanted to give more treatment to her tribe.

This is real! "Ye Qing always had a thick face in front of Qianqian, thinking of some political concepts on Earth. At this moment, she smiled and said," Nothing can compare to reality. Some people just can't show reality and use a set of false temptations. Isn't this the right path to success

Hmph, the young master has tried to argue again, "Qianqian gave a white glance.

Ye Mengqiu was honored to sit on the table, and at this moment, he looked at the Ye Mansion under the lush green trees. Seeing everyone happy, they secretly paid attention to Ye Qing's every move and sighed in their hearts. At this moment, Ye Zifan quietly came up and whispered a few words, and Ye Mengqiu suddenly changed his color slightly: "Did he really say that

Yes, he immediately pulled me and said, 'Father, I think he still has filial piety.'

Ye Mengqiu finally became the head of the family for thirty years and a juren. After a moment of contemplation, he gradually gained insight, as if he had seen the inner city of Ye Qing.

In Ye Qing's heart, there is a standard for rulers, ministers, friends, as well as interests and principles.

As soon as I had this feeling of gratitude, I felt a sense of solemnity as I slowly sat back in my chair and said, "I understand, go down

I just restrained my emotions and raised my glass to celebrate.

Seeing Qianqian and Ye Qing whispering again, Ye Qing even picked up some food for her, but secretly frowned and said, "To be fair, this grandson is a talented person, just a prestigious scholar. How could he elevate this maid too high

I had an idea in my heart. If it were an ordinary heir, I would secretly order Qianqian to be 'died of a sudden illness', at most with a thicker burial. Although it may have hurt some Yin virtue, I would not hesitate for the benefit and integrity of the clan.

But after the previous incident, Ye Mengqiu had a sense of jealousy and thought to himself, "This is for the good of Qing'er. I'm afraid he may not accept my affection. If it gets too big, it won't be good

Well, now Qing'er is seventeen years old, a proud second place official, an eighth rank Hanlin compiler, and also the head of my Ye family. What would it be if he didn't marry? He must marry a legitimate wife

With a legitimate wife, are you still afraid that this problem won't be solved? "Ye Mengqiu, who has been a family head for decades, has a keen understanding of human relationships.

If Qianqian were a concubine, with some beautiful colors, it would just be a bit more gentle, but Ye Qing's gaze, this wife, probably couldn't bear it no matter what.

At that time, she will be the one to handle this Qianqian. Thinking of this, this 80 year old man just smiled, feeling proud of his kindness for Ye Qing's sake.
