Chapter 1523: Waiting for your new king to be crowned

After Su Zhifei said the four words "My mind is made up," he immediately turned and returned to his room.

After returning to his room, he posted the video he had already recorded to the short video platform.

Subsequently, he called his subordinates and arranged for the subordinates who would accompany him to the Jokhang Temple early tomorrow morning.

His subordinates were extremely shocked by this decision and indeed did not want to follow him on this trip.

However, although Su Zhifei didn't have a lot of money, spending a few million or ten million to gather this group of younger brothers was no problem for him.

Thus, this group of people began to prepare for his long journey early tomorrow morning under the temptation of money.

Outside, Su Zhiyu and Du Haiqing were both a bit at a loss.

Du Haiqing asked Su Zhiyu: "Zhiyu, what do you think is wrong with your brother? How could he suddenly make such a decision?"

Su Zhiyu said with a very stern expression: "I really can't figure it out either... My brother has always liked Gu Qiuyi very much and put a lot of effort into Gu Qiuyi's concert. But tomorrow night is the time for Gu Qiuyi's concert to start. Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to choose to leave Jin Ling at this time. Doesn't this mean all his previous efforts have gone down the drain?"

"Yes..." Du Haiqing said with a worried expression: "Your brother's current state is like he is possessed. I suspect he has been stimulated by something?"

Su Zhiyu shook her head and said earnestly: "I went to meet He Zhichiu from Ye Chen's side today. I don't know much about my brother's situation today. Why don't I find someone to ask?"

Du Haiqing agreed and said: "You should first find out your brother's activity route today, then see who he met and where he went, and then filter out valuable clues from there."

Su Zhiyu nodded and said: "Alright Mom, I have an idea, don't worry."

At this very moment, Su Zhifei's short video also became popular on the platform.

The things that had happened to the Su family during this period had long been treated as a pastime and topic of conversation by people across the country. Until some time ago, when Su Zhiyu held a press conference online, people across the country were still keenly following every move of the Su family.

Originally, it was thought that Su Zhiyu's attitude of not mentioning making Su Chengfeng responsible for his actions at the press conference represented Su Zhiyu's compromise and also represented the end of this wealthy family feud.

However, what no one expected was that this matter actually had a new sequel today!

Su Zhifei, the eldest son and grandson of the Su family, actually jumped out at this time, criticized the Su family, and also indicated that he wanted to kowtow to the Jokhang Temple to atone for the Su family. In the eyes of the vast number of netizens, this was really a bit interesting.

Therefore, this video instantly caused quite a stir and even rushed to the top of the Weibo hot search list.

And at this very moment, because of a sudden fainting spell, the old Master Su had already been sent to the best hospital in Su Hang for emergency treatment. The descendants of the Su family were rushing to the hospital while sitting in the car, watching Su Zhifei's video and cursing him as a damn traitor.

But the culprit of all this, Ye Chen, was leisurely driving his car and taking his wife Xiao Churan home.

Just as Ye Chen parked the car and walked into the house hand in hand with his wife, the phone in his pocket vibrated.

After entering the house, while Xiao Churan went to wash her hands, Ye Chen took out his phone and took a look. It was a WeChat message.

Clicking on it, it was actually sent by Su Zhiyu.

The content was: "Benefactor, my brother went to the Dihao Group today. Did he go to see you?"

Ye Chen frowned slightly.

Su Zhiyu found him so quickly?

It seems that this girl must have already linked her brother's matter to him in her heart.

Thinking that there would be cooperation between the two sides in the future, Ye Chen didn't hide it. He walked out of the room, came to the courtyard, and replied by voice: "That's right, your brother ran to the Dihao Group today. On the surface, he was seeing Wang Dongxue, but actually, he wanted to find out my identity."

Su Zhiyu also sent a voice message to follow up: "Then, did he suddenly become like this because of you?"

Ye Chen admitted frankly: "That's right. He had people investigate my wife's license plate number. This behavior made me very dissatisfied. Not only that, he also wanted to dig out my real identity. Since he insisted on looking for trouble, I could only fulfill his wish."

Su Zhiyu hurriedly pleaded: "Benefactor, my brother has no social experience and sometimes easily does the wrong thing. If he did something wrong, I, as his younger sister, apologize to you on his behalf..."

"If you are still not satisfied, you can hit him or scold him, but making him kowtow all the way to the Jokhang Temple... this is really too harsh..."

"This journey is nearly four thousand kilometers. With his body, he won't be able to reach the destination for three or four years..."

Ye Chen said coldly: "Some mistakes can be made, but some cannot. He reached out to me and my family. On this point alone, I have reason to take his life. And don't forget, he himself owes me a life. With these two things added together, I originally had no reason to keep him, but the reason I let him go is entirely for your sake."

"Moreover, I also specially allowed him to bring accompanying personnel and a doctor. In this way, besides kowtowing and traveling every day, he can eat and live well the rest of the time. This is already preferential treatment for him. What else are you dissatisfied with?"

Su Zhiyu was stumped by Ye Chen's question and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

At this time, Ye Chen said again: "In addition, you also need to understand one point. Your brother's heart is not with you and your mother. Like your father, he does not stand in line based on affection, but based on interests. If you want to become the head of the Su family, then he is a huge threat to you."

"I let them both disappear for a few years, which is actually 'protecting you out of the city and helping you onto the horse.' Without them here, you can better exert your ability to compete for the power of the Su family!"

"If you can inherit the Su family within three years and hold the power, your father and brother will happen to return by then, and they will also be able to share in your success. By then, you can just give them some small favors from the Su family's big plate, which will be enough for them to live a life of luxury and peace for the rest of their lives!"

"But if I keep them both here, they will only become your enemies, your stumbling blocks, and very likely take action against you because of interests."

"If I keep your brother, you will always be suppressed by his status as the eldest son and grandson, and you two siblings will definitely turn against each other because of interests in the future!"

"But if I let him leave for three years, when you are crowned the new king, he will return, and he will no longer be your brother, but your subject! A subject before the monarch must kowtow three times and bow nine times!"

After listening to Ye Chen's reply, Su Zhiyu fell into deep thought.

She knew that Ye Chen was right.

"In front of the position of the Su family heir, everyone is an enemy!"

"Father and his younger brothers and sisters are enemies."

"My own brother and I, as well as the brothers and sisters from other uncles' families, are also enemies."

"If Father and Brother are both here, they won't be willing to let me sit in the position of the head of the family."

"In the end, maybe the three of us will turn against each other because of this."

"However, if I can sit firmly in the position of the head of the family first, then when they return, everything will be settled. There are nearly a hundred direct descendants of the Su family, but there is only one head of the family. There is an insurmountable chasm between other members and the head of the family."

"This is not just a chasm, but also a moat. If there is no such moat, even a biological father or brother may not be able to resist the temptation brought by huge interests..."

Thinking of this, she understood Ye Chen's painstaking efforts.

"Although Benefactor punishing my brother may not be truly for my sake, this matter has essentially and truly cleared obstacles for me."

"Moreover, with my style of doing things, I cannot turn against my father and brother because of interests. Benefactor is now sending them away separately, which on one hand avoids the predicament I might face in the future, and on the other hand, he also guarantees the personal safety of my father and brother, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

Thinking of this, Su Zhiyu said to Ye Chen: "Benefactor, your painstaking efforts, Zhiyu understands!" ===== CHAPTER 1524 =====
