Chapter 2636: The Ji Family’s Direct Line Has Someone Else

“Why don’t we give this recruitment spot to that Ji Ziyin?” He suggested a compromise. He glanced at everyone and continued, “Aren’t you fighting over it because you think that the Privy Council can’t recruit two newcomers a year? We also said that we won’t go back on our word… In my opinion, we should give this spot to her directly. This way, only one newcomer will be needed this year. We’ll also have an explanation for the Empress.”

He did not mention the most important reason—a person’s influence in the Privy Council was limited!

If only one newcomer came in this time, then it would be impossible for the Empress to do anything in the Privy Council through them.

The two sides temporarily discussed the feasibility of this method.

The Empress was very important to the hidden families. It was indeed not good for them to embarra.s.s her openly.

Just as the leader who objected was about to relent, someone suddenly barged in from outside. “Old Xue, you have a call.”

The old man in the lead frowned and took it unhappily. “… Didn’t I tell you not to disturb me during the meeting?

That person lowered his head. “It’s a call from the Ji family.”

The old man’s expression changed slightly. He pursed his lips and walked to the side to answer the call.

10 minutes later.

He returned to the conference table and faced everyone with a strange expression. He was a little shocked, a little afraid, and his expression was also a little ugly. “Emperor Ji told me that someone from the Ji family will be partic.i.p.ating in the Privy Council’s recruitment this year.”

There was an uproar.

“What?”

“What does the Ji family mean? Isn’t Ji Ziyin one of them?”

The old man raised his hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down and listen to him. “We all know that someone from the Ji family has set a rule. The direct descendants of the Ji family can enter the Privy Council, and they have the right to partic.i.p.ate in the recruitment of new members…”

Someone chimed in. “I know that. The problem is, isn’t there a prerequisite for this rule that one has to be a direct descendant?

“The only direct descendant of the Ji family in this generation is Ji Nan. Ji Nan is addicted to investing in stocks and doing business. He doesn’t come into contact with these things. They can’t possibly want him to partic.i.p.ate in our recruitment. He won’t meet the requirements.”

“No.” The old man, Eagle Eye, looked at him and said to everyone, “The Ji family still has a direct descendant.”

There was another commotion in the conference room. No one could accept this news.

The direct line of descent in the Ji family had always been thin. There were only one or two people in a generation.

There was only one direct descendant left in this generation.

Where did this other direct descendant come from?!

Were direct descendants so numerous that they were everywhere on the streets?

Everyone thought that the ‘direct bloodline’ he was talking about was Ji Lingfeng’s illegitimate child. Who knew that the old man would drop a heavy bomb?

“Ji Qing has a daughter.

“She’s the true heir of the Ji family.

“She’s taking part in the Privy Council’s recruitment.”

Three sentences.

The entire conference room fell into dead silence.

Ji Qing actually had a descendant!

Moreover, this descendant was partic.i.p.ating in this year’s recruitment?!

The old man’s expression was solemn. He did not look like he was joking. “So, you can give up giving the recruitment quota to that Ji Ziyin. Since the direct descendant of the Ji family wants to partic.i.p.ate in this recruitment, the Privy

Council can’t internally decide on the quota!”

This was the rule set by that person when he was above the reclusive families. Although that person had been dead for so many years, rules were rules. The direct bloodline of the Ji family was still scarce and n.o.ble..
