The first thousand three hundred and ninety-seven chapters
On the current land of the Celestial Empire, who dares to say that there is no family rule? You should know that the concept of family is not unique to the Celestial Empire, but it is definitely the most distinctive in the Celestial Empire. A family, the so-called family, besides the same surname as a family, is the most important extension of a more clear explanation, that is, factions. Relying on a certain family to form a series, it can also be called a person from a certain family.
The Xu family has the military god Xu Zhongyuan, and there will never be a day of decline. As long as Xu Zhongyuan is still alive and on the land of the Celestial Empire, no one dares to attack the Xu family. Everyone knows how much power Xu Zhongyuan has in the army, and knows that Xu Zhongyuan's words will be able to determine the fate of many people.
But Xu Zhongyuan also knew that this was just a temporary status quo.
This is how you live, but if you die?
How can the Xu family carry the Xu family's royal flag when there is no successor? By then, how many people will continue to follow the Xu family's footsteps. So for the Xu family, Xu Zhongyuan will now start a real layout.
In the study, there were only Xu Longque and Su Mu, which was an atmosphere deliberately created by Xu Zhongyuan, because Xu Zhongyuan really had something to say to the two! These words are not suitable for the explanatory rumor so far.
"Longque, Su Mu, do you know what day it is today?" Xu Zhongyuan said calmly.
"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival." Xu Longque said.
"Yes, today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is the day for family reunion. As long as you are together, you are family. This is what I want to say. Although Longque, Su Mu is not my direct descendant of the Xu family, he has been a member of my Xu family since he became my grandson. I know that the relationship between you and Su Mu is very good, and this is something I am very happy to see." Xu Zhongyuan said.
"Grandpa, why are you talking so seriously? You really don't have to worry about the relationship between Su Mu and me. Su Mu is a person who likes me very much. He and I are real brothers." Xu Longque said.
"Yes, grandpa, Brother Que is also very caring for me. Although Brother Que and I have no blood relationship, our relationship is really good. Since the day I became my grandfather and became my grandson, Su Mu has regarded myself as a member of the Xu family." Su Mu said.
"Yes, you are from my Xu family, but my Xu family has never given you any help. In contrast, the help you get from the rest of the people is more than what you get from grandpa. Su Mu. To be honest, have you ever hated grandpa?" Xu Zhongyuan said calmly.
"grandfather!"
When Su Mu heard this, he quickly stood up, "Grandpa, what you said is really heavy. Su Mu never dared to be disrespectful to his grandfather. Su Mu really treated his grandfather as an elder and as my biological grandfather. As for the political inclination that grandpa mentioned, with my current identity, it seems that there is no need to alarm the Xu family."
"Although that's the case, what you should do is still do. There are no outsiders here today, just the three of us, grandparents and grandchildren, and I might as well spread some things. Only by saying it happily can I feel more comfortable in my heart. Longque is a member of my Xu family, and he is born with a military agent, so it is necessary to take over my position in the future! The military merits accumulated by Longque are quite high. After a while, I will let you go and lead the troops.
If you stay in the special forces like you, it is not impossible, but it does not conform to the mainstream combat procedures. My principle for Longque is that if you can, you will strive to advance to all key departments in the army. Lead troops to obtain the qualification of a major general and enter the General Staff for further study. This is Longque's route. Longque, you must know the intention of my arrangement."
Xu Zhongyuan really has no intention of hiding, and what he said is really frank. And the more he has such an attitude, the more Su Mu feels that Xu Zhongyuan attaches importance to him. If he can say anything like this, what else is there that Xu Zhongyuan needs to hide from him.
"Grandpa, I know!" Xu Longque said.
"You should know because this is your destiny. But you should know that if you don't have local support, it's not OK. You also know that our Xu family has a strong voice in the army, but if you talk about it within the system, it is not as brilliant as the army. This does not mean that the Xu family has no available people, but because those people really don't dare to make sure whether they have the same heart as my Xu family." Xu Zhongyuan said.
"That's right!" Xu Longque echoed: "If loyalty is not guaranteed, such a person will never be able to support him, because if such a person is supported, he will not only not be able to help him at the critical moment, but may also cause bad things."
"That's what I'm talking about!" Xu Zhongyuan said: "But the situation is already like this now. If my Xu family does not have a clear spokesperson within the system, it will be impossible to maintain a long-term stability. So my idea is that you, Xu Longque is the representative of the Xu family in the army. As for what it means within the system..."
When Xu Zhongyuan looked at Su Mu, the expression on Su Mu's face suddenly became exciting, "Grandpa, you won't want to say that I will become the spokesperson of the Xu family in the system, right?"
"Is there anyone more suitable to be involved in the officialdom than you?" Xu Zhongyuan said with a smile.
"But I am just a county magistrate now, and this seems to be a bit ineffective." Su Mu said.
"You are the county magistrate now, which proves that you are really talented in the officialdom." Xu Zhongyuan pointed out the key to the problem incisively, "I know that you are already a member of the League, which represents the will of the League. But what I want you to understand is that our Xu family is different from the other families, because I understand that if you want to be politically ease, you must be able to maintain close relationships with multiple families and forces.
Now, who else can do this besides you? I already know your affairs very clearly. Your good relationship with Li Letian means having a friendship with the Li family. Although the old Li guy said he was following me, he really went further than my Xu family in the system, and this must be admitted.
So you can contact the Li family, and you are Ye Anbang's prospective son-in-law, and you are in contact with the Ye family. There is also Zheng Wenzhi's Zheng family, and the group system represented by the old guy Zhou Fengqian. Maybe you didn't realize that you have become a bond invisibly.
Of course, you have to understand that so far, what you can trust is my Xu family, Ye Anbang's Ye family, and Zhou Fengqian's group. Apart from these three, the rest of the forces can only say that you have a good relationship with them, but they have not yet reached the point where you can truly support you."
It was a very complicated relationship. After Xu Zhongyuan's explanation, it became very clear in an instant.
Su Mu also knew that relationships were like this!
"Grandpa, logic is that since you said that, I should agree. But I really don't have this confidence!" Su Mu smiled helplessly. If Su Mu really patted his chest and said that there was no problem, then there would be something wrong.
"I didn't let you become that person now, I just let you be prepared like this." Xu Zhongyuan said.
"Like me, just cultivate it slowly. Brother, don't tell me that you don't even have such courage. Wouldn't I still go up like this? Let us brothers work hard together." Xu Longque said.
"That's the case..."
Su Mu quickly sorted out the interests in his mind, then raised his head, without any hesitation, "Grandpa, since you believe me so much, if I push you out again, I will really be ungrateful. I will play this role, and I promise you that as long as I, Su Mu, will not allow anyone to attack the Xu family politically."
"Okay, I am worthy of being my grandson of Xu Zhongyuan, and I have a spirit!" Xu Zhongyuan laughed.
Do you really think Xu Zhongyuan chose casually? In addition to those relationships, Xu Zhongyuan also knew that there were two people standing behind Su Mu, one was Mei Zheng and the other was Wu Qingyuan. With such two people, Xu Zhongyuan really didn't believe it. Who else dared to make a secret stumbling against Su Mu? Under such circumstances, Su Mu's rise will definitely be unstoppable.
After Su Mu said this, his mood suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Grandpa, since it's Mid-Autumn Festival today, I think my second uncle and sister-in-law are all here, right? Let's have dinner at home at noon and don't go out to the so-called hotel. Then, I will introduce Su Mu to them." Xu Longque said.
"You have to say this!" Xu Zhongyuan said.
"I wonder if that little girl Xu Bingqing came? Brother, let me tell you, this girl is the most beautiful girl in our family. Do you know what kind of person Xu Bingqing is? He is a person who makes me feel a little headache when I see her. Because she has a wide range of hobbies, but she is very proficient in all kinds of schools. Do you think it would be very stressful to be with such a little genius?" Xu Longque touched his head and said.
Xu Bingqing?
When Xu Longque said this name, a rare smile appeared on Xu Zhongyuan's face, "Yes, Su Mu, you and Bingqing are about the same age, so there should be many topics between them. Bingqing in our family is really a little genius. You may really like it after you meet it."
Xu Bingqing? Su Mu was really curious about how he was so respected by Xu Zhongyuan.
Who is this Xu Bingqing?
