Chapter 13 Ancestor Worship (1)

On the vermilion pavilion, a wisp of white smoke from the incense burner flows through the gap, like water waves, and a faint incense aura spreads in the room.

Huo Feixian stood quietly in front of the incense burner, holding a simple book in his hand, wearing soft red silk, and it was like a ball of fire that ignited the entire room.

His life in the Huo family is really good. In this huge mansion of the minister, there is a small building of his own and his own courtyard.

Except for being unable to practice, the rest are treated the same as the two younger brothers and sisters, and the food, clothing and expenses are the same.

"What incredible power is the painter's method? What mystery is there? It's really exciting." Huo Taixian stood in front of the bookshelf, casually looking at the books in his hand, with a hint of yearning in his eyes.

"Bang~"

At this moment, the door of the house was knocked open, and Xiaochunzi rushed in in a hurry. Before the person arrived, he had already cried through the window paper and said, "Young Master... are you okay?"

Xiao Chunzi entered the house, looked at Huo Feixian with his eyes, and then he rushed over directly. The wolf cried and howled, "Young master! You are back. After the villain came back, he stayed at home and was worried. He couldn't eat well and sleep well. He lost two pounds in just two days."

As he said, he grabbed his face with tears and tears, and his body emitted a foul smell, and he rushed straight towards Huo Feixian.

"Slow down! Stop." Huo Taixian called Xiaochunzi: "How many days have you not taken a shower? Why are you so greasy?"

"Young Master, you really wronged the villain. After the villain came back, he couldn't eat well and sleep well. He was thinking about the young master all day long, and his heart was all over his body. How could he have the intention to take a shower?" Xiao Chunzi looked at Huo Feixian with grievance.

Huo Taixian laughed and said nothing: "I'm fine now? I'm standing here for a long time."

Looking up and down at Huo Taixian, Xiao Chunzi felt relieved when she saw that the other party was really fine, and patted her chest and let out a long breath: "I'll be relieved. In the future, we must be careful when we go out. We need to recruit two good players to avoid such danger. This time we were careless. We have been in the mansion before and never showed up, thinking that we would not be targeted. If the young master listens to me and takes the guards and goes out, we will not almost die outside."

Xiaochunzi was chattering, but a trace of memory flowed in Huo Feixian's mind.

The predecessor wanted to go out to find the opportunity to become a painting scholar, get rid of the many constraints in the mansion, and take the opportunity to do some small moves outside, so he never took a guard to leave the mansion.

It is no wonder that people have suffered an accidental death in the wilderness.

"Young Master, I heard from people outside that you are going to give up your identity as the heir of the family, right?" Xiao Chunzi seemed to remember something, suddenly raised her head, staring at Huo Feixian with her eyes tightly.

"Is the news circulating so quickly?" Huo Taixian asked in surprise.

"The news came from the Grandma's yard. Young Master, is this true? Is the people in the Grandma's yard secretly spread rumors and causing trouble? You are the eldest son. Even if you sue the lawsuit before the Emperor Zhou, you are the best candidate to inherit the title of aristocratic title. You are not a fool, how could you give up the title?" Xiaochunzi muttered to herself and patted her head:

"Look at the little one, it's clear that the people in the eldest lady's room maliciously slandered ill-intentionedly. I actually believed such nonsense."

"It's true. I have reached a tacit understanding with my father. I will give up my title this time to worship my ancestors. Everything in the mansion has nothing to do with me anymore."

"What..." Xiaochunzi was stunned when she heard this, and suspected that she had heard it wrong. At this moment, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Huo Taixian with her eyes blankly, her eyes full of disbelief:

"Master, are you lying to me?"

"For me, this mansion is a cage that cannot be broken. After you have been with me for eight years, you should know what my dream has been since childhood." Huo Taixian put down the book in his hand and sighed leisurely.

"It's over! Your master's head is broken! How did that woman trick you into giving up your title?" Xiaochunzi wailed and patted her head in annoyance:

"I have only been away from the young master for only two days, and the woman took advantage of the loophole. Young Master, you are confused! Although the painter is good, I have no shortage of painter in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the title is really hard to find. What benefits did the woman promised that she actually asked you to give up the right to inherit?"

Huo Taixian said nothing when he heard this.

"Young Master, that woman is just bullying you for many years living in the mansion with shallow knowledge. Do you know what the title of a noble means?" Xiaochunzi looked at Su Donglai:

"The people in the world are just a group of livestock for the nobles. The nobles control this world and the power of life and death in this world. The nobles can override the law. Even if they kill people, they will only compensate for some items. Since the founding of the Zhou emperor's country and conferring the world, our Great Zhou Dynasty has not been born for 13,000 years. As long as you become a noble, countless painters will serve you, and countless resources will be placed on you. Why should you be anxious for a while? It's simply because you are looking for the distance and picking up sesame seeds after losing watermelons."

"I know." Su Donglai sighed quietly: "It's just that everyone has their own ambitions, this is my own choice."

Can Huo Feixian tell him about the injuries in his body?

He can't say it.

No one can say it.

"I am about to be demoted to a civilian. You can leave me and continue to stay in the mansion to serve your new master. It will not affect your life." Huo Taixian looked at Xiao Chunzi with a smile.

Just to share hardships before, this kid can get along with friends. If something happens, it’s true.

"What the young master said? Little life is your person, death is your ghost. I have served you for eight years. If you leave, can I still tolerate me in this mansion?" Xiao Chunzi sighed with a frown, and then fell not far from Huo Taixian.

"If you follow me, I'm afraid you will be displaced in the future, and you won't have the luxury of clothing and food in the mansion." Su Donglai said with a smile.

Xiaochunzi smiled bitterly: "Young Master, since you know your future life, why not talk to the master? There is still a turning point before things have settled."

Su Donglai did not answer Xiao Chunzi's words, but put down the books in his hand:

"How many people know now that I'm going to give up my inheritance?"

"Since the news spread from the Grandma's yard, it has spread throughout the mansion and to the side houses of various families." Xiaochunzi replied.

"It is not easy to give up inheritance. Even if I want to give up inheritance myself, the Huo family still has some old antiques that abide by the rules and only recognize the ancestral etiquette and laws, and it depends on whether they agree." A thought flashed in Huo Taixian's mind:

"The eldest lady is throwing a stone to ask for directions, revealing the news in advance to see how the clan elders react."

"However, the Huo family relies a lot on the eldest lady's family. Most of the Huo family members have received the favors of Mrs. Huo. It is very easy for the eldest lady to settle those old men."

Although Huo Taixian gave up inheriting the title, he was still a member of the Huo family, a child of the Huo family, and a son of Huo Jia, but his status was just a reversal of Huo Xin.

Xiaochunzi washed up dejectedly, leaving Huo Feixian sitting in the room reading a book, quietly watching the book in her hand, and thinking about the method in the book.

This book is left by the mother of the previous mother. It is unknown in the age, has an ominous inheritance and is unknown in the author. It is the only relic left by the mother of the previous mother.

The book records an ancient blood sacrifice method, but this method is too incredible, and Huo Taixian dare not try it easily.

Time passes by bit by bit, and three days pass by in a hurry.

Day 3

early morning

The voice of the guard came from outside the door:

"Grand Prince, ancestor worship is about to begin, I would like to ask you to come."

Huo Feixian was wearing a white dress, and the silk on her body took off. She changed to a white coat. She pushed open the door and saw the man with a thin and expressionless figure. She nodded and walked straight towards the ancestral hall.

When we arrived at the ancestral hall, there were thousands of people gathered in front of the ancestral hall, all three of them whispering in a low voice. When we saw Huo Feixian coming, we all lowered our voices, our eyes turned around on him, and kept bowing our heads and talking.

Everyone in the clan had heard the news long ago, and when they saw the protagonists of the matter, their thoughts kept moving.

Huo Feixian walked through the crowd and stood in front of the junior disciple, then put his hands in his sleeves, stood there, closed his eyes without saying a word.

The disciples around him looked at Huo Feixian, lowered their heads one by one, and their eyes kept colliding in private.

There was a noise, but Huo Xin was wearing silk, with a ding-dong ring around his waist, and a rouge on his face, just like a crab. The crowd rushed to dodge wherever he passed, and then came to Huo Feixian.

"You lost!" Huo Xin stood beside Huo Feixian, looking at Su Donglai who was resting with his eyes closed, his eyes full of pride:

"I will inherit the Huo family after all."

Huo Feixian looked at Xiao Douding, who was five or six years old in front of him, with a arrogant expression on his face, and was too lazy to bother with the other party.

This kid looks young, but unfortunately he is not a good person. Under the instigation of the maid and mother beside him, he keeps causing trouble for Huo Taixian and is hostile to Huo Taixian.

Brothers often fight, let alone half-brothers and competing brothers?

The two are born with different horoscopes.

"Hmph, I will be the legitimate son of my family in the future. You should be more respectful when you see me, otherwise don't blame me for being a big brother for being merciless, so that you can know what rules are." Huo Xin looked at Huo Taixian, his voice full of pride.

Huo Taixian looked at him and said, "You become the legitimate son, that's after today. If you dare to continue to slap in trouble, I don't mind asking you to know what the rules are now." Huo Taixian looked at Xiao Douding.

His predecessor was weak in the mansion, and the whole mansion was full of the confidants of the eldest wife. In the past, he had to swallow his anger. Although he was a legitimate son, he was not even as good as a second son.

There is no way. Although Xiao Douding is the second son, he can't resist the rules of his mother in charge of the entire mansion.

Huo Feixian was just a false reputation as a legitimate son.
