The end of being favored by the gods [Infinite Stream]

No matter how self-cultivated these aristocratic ladies are, they also knocked over the cup in amazement at this moment.

Isn't this their sister who was kicked out of the house early?

They knew that this younger sister would be picked up in the next few days, but no one took her seriously; they are the real noble ladies, how can this Cinderella compare?

But hear what she said?Let her be the head of the house? ?

"You have such a big face." Miss San was shaking her hands in anger.

The eldest lady's face darkened, and she pretended to be a superior: "Housekeeper, please take my sister back to the room. The guests will arrive later, so don't embarrass her."

Xue Quning: "...Can't you see my real gender?"

Forget it doesn't matter.He beckons for someone to bring things in.Originally thought it was his maid who came in, but the housekeeper finally came in.

He was holding something covered with a red cloth in his hand, and his face was slightly pale.The eldest lady was very dissatisfied with the housekeeper's obedience to her sister, but after guessing what was inside, she almost bit the tip of her tongue.

Xue Quning clapped his hands and said to them, "I'm not here to discuss with you, I'm here to inform you."

"Actually, I've always wondered why you were not in a hurry when your father was assassinated, but were anxious to choose an heir instead."

He spoke in a neither hasty nor slow manner, even a bit lukewarm, but if you listen a little carefully, you can hear that after being lukewarm, you can't refuse.

This is the smiling tiger.

The third lady has the most irritable temper. She stood up abruptly and said frantically, "Who wants to listen to your nonsense? Where is the servant? Why don't you throw her out!"

Xue Quning: "Because he has already been bribed by me."

The third lady stared at the butler, who was in a cold sweat. Just when she thought the butler was going to deny it, he actually... nodded.

"You don't have to worry about asking why." Xue Quning said quickly, "There is a reason why he was bought by me."

"The butler has worked for the Florens family all his life." The second lady finally said cautiously.

"Yes." Xue Quning nodded with a smile, "That's the problem."

"Everything I do is for the family." He said seriously, "So the butler was moved by me, and he decided to support me."

The housekeeper shook his lips, and swallowed the word "put" on his lips.

"Father's death, everyone knows who is good, and no one here can escape the relationship." Xue Quning said slowly, "But since we have the tradition of dedicating the failed successor to the snake god, naturally Not saddened by his death, I understand."

"But you have to give an explanation to the Council of Elders, right?"

The third lady originally thought that the farce would end here, but she didn't expect Xue Quning to drag the elders into it again.It was originally scheduled to be elected by ten respected elders seven days later, and the power struggle involved in it was not to be mentioned, as the forces behind her and the two sisters would definitely occupy a place.

"Yes, they voted for me." Xue Quning said.

He slowly opened his hand, revealing ten pieces of paper in the palm of his hand, on which were the signatures of every voter, and no one dared to forge it.

It is enough to explain the authenticity of these tickets.

The eldest lady lost her voice: "How is it possible? You have only been here for less than a day..."

"One day is enough." Xue Quning was not angry at her anger at all, and answered very kindly, "I know all their secrets. Elders don't change coachmen often, and the coachman will always know the most about their secrets." people."

"Of course they didn't want to say it at first, but I gave too much."

Missy's hands were shaking with anger, let alone Missy's.

What is strange is that the second young lady and her cousin remained silent, and the cousin who should be most angry just closed his eyes at this moment.

"But what does this matter have to do with father's death?" the eldest lady said.

"Of course, if you threaten the elders with secrets, it's still impossible for them to give me the ticket. I also told them three secrets."

"The first secret, who is the murderer who killed my father?"

He suddenly lifted the red cloth, revealing a ferocious statue hidden underneath.

"This is the patron saint of our family." Xue Quning, "I don't know why, but brother keeps his eyes closed?"

"Don't you dare look at it?"

Everyone was startled by his actions, especially the second young lady, who had been cautious and silent all this time, stood up in panic.

"God..." She stared straight at the statue, and murmured: "God..."

Their family has always been cursed.

But it's not so much a curse, it's better to say that they are proud of it, especially their father, who claims to have the blood of the snake god in his body, and they are the most noble existence.

They have always been married to better bloodlines, and their descendants are regarded as inferior creatures.

"I actually searched a lot of information before I came here. In fact, it is very simple to solve this matter. You only need to start with the history of this family."

"Once upon a time a princess married a farmer."

"One day, the farmer met a frozen snake. He kindly put the snake in his arms and took it home."

"We all know that." The third lady said sarcastically, "The farmer is our grandfather, he moved the snake god because of his kindness, so the snake god gave our family a huge fortune."

"How is it possible?" Xue Quning looked at her unexpectedly, "Why do you think snakes are moved?"

"The normal version is that the snake bit the farmer back." Xue Quning continued, "But in view of the reality, the more likely version is that the farmer, who was suffering from hunger and cold, planned to take the snake home and cook it."

Third Miss's lips trembled, and she said, "I don't believe it."

"Then the princess also has problems in this version of the story. She's a princess, why is she marrying a farmer?"

"Even if it's because of love, it's an impulsive love." He shook his head, "When she realizes it, she will definitely regret her decision. There is no precedent for a farmer to become an aristocrat in this country, and it is impossible for a princess to endure a lifetime of poverty. "

"Ask yourself if you want to marry a commoner?"

The ladies looked relaxed, of course they didn't want to.

From the very beginning, the rhythm of the whole scene was led by Xue Quning, they didn't have time to think and react at all, and thinking about it now, they just felt weird everywhere.

It's as if they're part of one giant scam.

Lorraine opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes turned into lines uncontrollably, like some kind of cold-blooded animal.

"What do you want to say?" His tone was cold, containing killing intent.

"There is no such thing as a snake god."

One sentence seemed to strike everyone's heart like a lightning strike.

Xue Quning said: "It's just a tool to deceive the common people. Common people who don't know anything can easily send gold coins into the pockets of gods."

"Of course a commoner doesn't know how to do this. Someone must help him."

"I can only think of one person who can do this and support a family." Xue Quning turned his head away, and smiled, "King."

"Why should the king help him? Either the princess has created a big scandal, or there is something to gain from him."

"I prefer the former."

"Then here I'm going to explain things like genetic diseases." Xue Quning pointed to his eyes, "The eyes can deceive the brain, and when there is something wrong with the eyes, the brain will be more willing to believe what it sees in the eyes. "Your eyes come from the previous generation, and the eyes of the previous generation are inherited from the previous generation."

"Only one person in each generation will have problems with their eyes, and they will see things differently than others. And this person will become the head of the family."

"Then the root cause is still the problem of the princess." Xue Quning had already stood up, walked to the table with the statue of the snake god and stood there, her eyebrows slightly closed, and her every move touched people's hearts.

Many lower-ranking branch families dare not say a word, complaining endlessly in their hearts.

How did they also know the secret of the Floren family?

Will they still be able to walk out of this mansion intact?

Almost everyone already knew the unspoken answer.

The scandal created by the princess is probably incest.

Even gave birth to children with special diseases.

The third miss hadn't turned her head, but the eldest miss had already fully understood, her lower lip was bitten pale by herself: "In other words, the heir of the family has been determined long ago?"

No matter which prince they marry, the heir cannot fall on them?

Her eyes unconsciously flicked to Lorraine.Reminiscent of Xue Quning's lightly questioning question, why didn't he dare to open his eyes.

A frenzied siren sounded in Xue Quning's head, but he chose to ignore it.

He felt like he was going to pass the customs.

"Elders know?" Her voice trembled.

"I know." He spread his hands, looking helpless, "This is the secret I used to threaten them. I promised them not to announce this matter, and they voted for me."

The eldest lady is already a little shaky.

It turns out...all of this was manipulated early on.

If Xue Quning hadn't told these things, she might have become a sacrifice to the snake god without any clue.

"Wait, what about the sacrifice of the snake god?" She raised her eyebrows, "Why did you give the heir who failed the competition to..."

Lorraine said suddenly: "Because I'm afraid the secret will be exposed."

He looked at Xue Quning with killing intent in his eyes: "After the election, everyone will know my secret."

"In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we simply killed them all. Every successor does the same thing."

The third lady lost her voice: "Then why did you kill father?! You have obviously—"

"Who said I killed it?" Lorraine interrupted her.

"But……"

Lorraine looked at her mockingly.

Excluding the second lady who had great faith in gods and could not destroy the statue, the third lady who had a small brain, and the eldest lady who was very confident in herself, there was only one person who wanted to kill his father.

Xue Quning: "It's me."

To be precise, it is the identity he represents.

A hand protruded from the wide hooded cloak. Those pale but beautiful hands seemed to be matched only by thorny roses.

"If my father hadn't passed away unexpectedly, I would never be able to come back here again."

"Now I am the head of the family." He raised his eyes, the pupils were as intoxicating as the night, like a little prince who walked out of a fairy tale.

"So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I have to deal with you first."

Outside the mansion, the elders got into the carriage and left one after another.

Although they looked calm, their panic could be vaguely seen from the ruts of the carriage.

The coachman asked his master, who was very puzzled: "Why are you leaving?"

The elder closed his eyes and said with a trembling voice after a long time: "This matter is not as simple as it seems to you. What he has to solve next is the real problem."

Thinking of the child's snake-like eyes, he shuddered.

They don't want to accompany them, just leave it to him to solve it.
