Section 147: Power Struggle

Power struggles

(1) In the grand council hall of the Ou-Yang family, a special meeting organized by the Elders' Council was underway. The head of the Elders' Council, Ou-Yang Wu-Keng, who is also the eldest son of Ou-Yang Wu-Di's second uncle, was a cousin to the current head of the Ou-Yang family.

In order to balance the interests and delicate relationships of each branch of the family, the Elders' Council is generally composed of the eldest sons of each lineage. Currently, facing the assassination of the next designated head of the family and Ouyang Wudi being seriously ill in bed, on the brink of death, the family is in a crisis. In this perilous situation, the Elders' Council must redraw the rules of the game.

This means confirming the next successor to the position, even if Ouyang Wudi is still alive. This is a right granted to the Elders Council by the clan rules, and it's also the only time they have an opportunity to exercise their power.

They have the right not to use it, and it expires upon expiration. These elders would love nothing more than to use this right frequently. Especially now that everyone is focused on that position.

Ouyang Wu'kong sat in the chairman's seat, swept his eyes over the crowd, and coughed heavily. When everyone focused their attention on him, he then spoke in a low voice: "Brothers, you have all just chatted privately. Now, let's hear your thoughts."

Everyone looked at each other, their faces showing a range of emotions, but none of them spoke first. They were all waiting, waiting for the right moment to speak.

Seeing no one speak, Ou Yang Wu Kong continued: "What You're all silent Wuhui, why don't you say something"

Sitting beside Ouyang Wufeng was Ouyang Wuhuai, also an elder of the wordless generation. He held a high position in the Elder Council. This man had a thin face, a small goat-horn mustache, and wore a red Tang suit. He appeared to be a weak person, but his temper was exceptionally fiery, which was well-known throughout the family.

He scanned the conference room with a cold expression, then said in a low voice: "It's too early for us to discuss this here. After all, Brother Invincible hasn't spoken yet."

Everyone was speechless, and the conference room fell into a brief silence.

“It’s not about replacing the leader, it’s just being prepared. What if something happens to Elder Brother This huge family needs someone at the helm! It takes time to prepare and cultivate a successor. Not everyone can handle this position.” At that moment, a portly old man named Ouyang Wuyou, seated in the middle, broke the silence and said coldly.

Even if the invincible Big Bro were to meet an untimely end, wouldn't we have the Elder Council Why are you getting so worked upOuyang Wu-fei sat across from Ouyang Wuhui and said with a yin-yang tone. After saying that, he looked at everyone and continued: "According to the Fifth Rule of the Ouyang Family Code, when the patriarch meets with an accident and there is no heir apparent, the Elder Council shall temporarily be responsible for the family affairs and cultivate a new patriarch. Don't you all remember the training we had"

As soon as he finished speaking, a buzz of hushed conversation filled the conference room. Some nodded in agreement, while others shook their heads. Meanwhile, Ou Yang Wu Kong, seated at the head of the table, let out a complicated expression flash across his eyes.

After so many years as a member, he finally had the chance to lead the family! How could he not be excited As long as Ouyang Wunan's proposal was passed today, the Elders Council would immediately exercise its power. At that time, with a little manipulation, becoming the head wouldn't be difficult at all

Even if one couldn't become the leader themselves, wouldn't it be (3) quite easy to arrange for their own son to take the position

Thinking of this, he and Ouyang exchanged a meaningful look.

Still, he couldn't shake the feeling that his brother hadn't always been there for him. When I ascend to a higher position, I'll definitely give him the vice chairman's spot. He had already secretly made up his mind about this.

In the midst of the commotion, Ouyang Wudi's two sons, Ouyang Yingke and Ouyang Yingcheng, exchanged glances with each other. They also communicated through various meaningful looks with the elder members who supported them among the elders present.

As the most likely successor to the headmaster position, Ou Yang Yingke, seeing this situation, although he was a bit restless, when he saw Ou Yang Wuyou's stern eyes, the words about to reach his lips were swallowed back down hard.

The atmosphere in the chamber was thick with anticipation. Those who had the capability to vie for the position were carefully assessing the situation. As for those without a chance, they were dissecting the potential outcomes and figuring out who would ascend to power and offer them the greatest benefit.

Interest and rights are often intertwined. Under such temptation, no one can remain aloof.

While everyone was still discussing Ou Yang Wu Fa's proposal, Ou Yang Wu You coldly spoke up, stood up and said: "That's a good idea.

" He turned his head to look at Ou Yang Wu Kong with a glance, then continued: "Does Master Ou Yang Wu Kong want to be the leader"

At his words, the conference hall erupted in an uproar.

Everyone understood the intentions of Ouyang Wu and his group, but this was something that could only be understood in their hearts. It couldn't be put on the table for discussion. This Ouyang Wuyou really wanted to tear his face off.

Ouyang Wu's face flushed red, but then it darkened immediately. A cold killing intent flashed in his eyes. He squinted at Ouyang Wuyou, sneered, and said: "Ouyang Wuyou (4), what do you mean"

"Oh, you know in your heart." Ouyang Wuyou responded with a fearless expression. Ouyang Wu was only doing the job of chairman, he wasn't afraid at all.

Between their gazes, sparks flew. Meanwhile, a knowing smile flickered across Ou Yang Yingke's face.

Ouyang Wuhui saw the scene and was a little out of control. He slapped the table with his hand, stood up angrily, and roared at everyone: "What are you arguing about A meeting of elders is supposed to be orderly, but you lot have turned it into a chaotic mess. Brother Wu Di just caught a cold, and you're making such a fuss here!"

He has quite a temper, you know. Don't let his slender frame fool you, he packs a punch when he gets angry.

For a moment, no one dared to speak.

Ouyang Wukong and Ouyang Wuyou exchanged a glance, both snorted coldly, then turned their gazes away.

It's just that, my dad is only temporarily unwell. That's when Ouyang Yingke weakly said a sentence.

Ouyang Wuhu turned back and glared at Ouyang Yingke, coldly saying: "You're not a good thing either."

Ou Yang Yingke's face flushed red, he awkwardly turned his head away, but in his heart, he sneered: Old man, one day I will get back at you.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

The situation is a bit complicated right now, and no one dares to speak up and express their opinion rashly.

Inside a secluded house of the OuYang family, OuYang Yingliang caressed the urn containing his son, OuYang Yu's ashes, tears streaming down his face. His wife, Li Shishi, sat lifelessly on a sofa nearby, holding a photo album of their family of three in her arms. Her hand gently brushed over her son's picture, her face etched with sorrow and pain.

No matter what was happening outside, only the two of them were immersed in their grief.

After a moment's pause, Li Shishi seemed to have made up her mind. She bit her lip, stood up from the sofa, walked over and hugged her husband from behind. Her voice was now icy cold as she said: "Ot Yingliang, why don't we fight for it"

Upon hearing her wife's words, Ou Yang Yingliang's body suddenly trembled violently. co496090, founded in 2013-9-30!"There was no reply. When he finished speaking, the signal indicator light immediately went out. This meant the other party had unilaterally terminated the signal.It seemed as if she had realized som...
