But after I tearfully gave up, you became increasingly dissatisfied with me, even wanting to bypass me and pass the position of family head to a foolish person.
You were so proud of your idea that you even advertised it, completely disregarding my feelings and turning me into a laughingstock throughout the capital!
I could no longer endure it and once again proposed to take on a real position, yet you still refused! Liu Fan! The position of family head will be passed to Congcong; I have explained this to you before.
Ha, so I am merely a transitional tool, used and then discarded.
Liu was taken aback by these words, his mouth opening and closing as he struggled to find an explanation. He sighed, "Do you think the officialdom is that chaotic? The number of officials who fail each year in the Court is countless. Perhaps there is a momentary glory in changing status, but decline can happen in an instant.
Since the establishment of the Great Jing Dynasty, how many families have survived until now? Even the Sang Family, which once dominated the entire continent, was wiped out in one night, leaving hardly anyone behind.
I can proudly say that the Liu Family is one of them! It has never declined; in fact, it has continued from previous dynasties until now. During times of regime change, the Liu Family has never been on the list for liquidation and has always been needed by successive emperors.
Although our family cannot be considered wealthy or noble, we have never lacked for anything. Our family assets have been steadily accumulated, and our foundation has grown thicker. While there are indeed those in the Court who look down on us, there are also many who envy the Liu Family.
Why do you only see those strange looks in their eyes? Ultimately, it comes down to your own instability; one must first cultivate their heart.
Your talent may not match Congcong's, but it surpasses most in our family. Yet your heart grows increasingly restless; not only can you not learn for yourself, but you also secretly incite others in the family to join your chaos.
Being a family head is nothing more than maintaining what we have and expanding further; if you have no intention of maintaining what we have, then there's no need to expand either.
This is why I entertained thoughts of replacing you. Although I spoke about it without truly making up my mind, my words were meant to admonish you. Yet instead, they gave rise to your rebellious thoughts—something I never anticipated. I feel ashamed before our ancestors!
Liu's earnest words only earned him Liu Fan's defiance. "What right do you have to say I'm not expanding?"
Facts speak louder than words! Look at your current situation and think about how it has affected the Liu Family! This is the consequence of your arrogance!
"I... I just..." Liu Fan could not refute him any longer; a hint of regret finally appeared in his eyes.
"Just what? Just a novice?" You haven't even stepped fully into this world yet and have already become someone else's discarded pawn.
This is how officialdom works—a battle of life and death. With that pig-headed brain of yours, do you think you can outplay others?
You've caused chaos until now; I bet you've never even seen the shadow of those behind the scenes, right? You're just a small pawn at the very bottom of development; those behind the scenes haven't even heard of someone like you!
