Chapter 16: Ink Rise

Mo Sheng has been busy lately, and he is dealing with the affairs of the Mo family up and down! Since Mo Xing, the head of the Mo family, was unfortunately killed, he was successfully elected as the acting head of the family.

In the past, as one of Mo Xing's assistants, although things were busy, he would not be so anxious.

Clan disputes, imperial envoys visiting, these have to be dealt with one by one, although Mo Xing's previous assistants are also trying their best to help him, but he just can't do the same as the former head of the family.

In the past, I used to get the goal and then find a way to deal with big and small affairs, but now I have become a commander-in-chief who needs to think independently and give direction to the people below.

Those who are also aware of their own situation will be considerate of themselves and laugh it off. But when I look at those who have been wronged and greet me when I see him, I instinctively feel that the other party's smile is fake, and I instinctively feel that I am sorry for the trust of others, so I don't want to have more contact with the people in the clan.

I must be under too much psychological pressure, and if I continue like this, there will definitely be a flaw in my mood, and it is possible to go crazy.

During the afternoon tea, Mo Sheng explained his state to the four people in front of him, and expressed his worries to everyone very sincerely, hoping that the four of them could understand themselves, but they didn't know which person who was greedy for power could stand up and remove himself as the head of the family. After you retreat, you must do your best to assist, if you have half a lie, the sky will thunder!

The words were impassioned, and Mo Sheng said with a dry mouth, but the other four minds were not on his side, drinking tea and chatting and talking to themselves, and they didn't listen to his words at all!

Mo Sheng stopped to see the reaction of the four of them, if he didn't speak, even if he gave a look, he would definitely settle the matter immediately! But the four of them didn't even look back, clinking glasses of tea to persuade each other, grabbing melons and fruits and snacks and tasting them non-stop, not wanting to talk at all.

Mo Sheng's temper came up, and all the depression in his heart in the past few days broke out, and his hand kept slapping the table, shaking the tea on the table and splashing everywhere, and the melons and fruits jumped to the ground!

"Look at what attitude you all have, you didn't take me as the head of the family in your eyes when you had a tea party! You look down on me so much, why do you still elect me to do it together, it's better to dismiss me, which of you has the ability to do it!"

Seeing that Mo Sheng's temper had come up, the four of them stopped chatting privately at the same time, grabbed the teacup beside them, and prevented the table from slipping down because the table shook too much, ignoring the melons and fruits falling to the ground, and showing a bright smile at Mo Sheng.

Mo Sheng had no temper at all for these four people, so he had to sulk with a straight face.

The four of them looked at each other and passed a look to each other, they couldn't offend this kid ruthlessly, in case this kid really started to be ruthless and quit the burden, in the end, it wasn't one of the four of them who went up?

"Xiaosheng, no, no, it's the head of the family!" said a middle-aged steward to the young Mo Sheng, "Come on, come on, take a sip of tea to cool off!"

Mo Sheng's face turned to the other side, not paying attention to him.

Another person seemed to have expected it, and appeared on the other side: "Family master, no one is more suitable than you, for the sake of the Mo family, you can sacrifice it!"

"Yes, yes, for the sake of the Mo family, you will sacrifice it!" The other two also agreed, with a sincere face, making Mo Sheng feel that he was sorry for the people and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth if he didn't sacrifice.

"I! You say I'm easy! Qing officials are still difficult to cut off family affairs, and I have to do all the big and small things in the clan, so I will inevitably offend people, and the envoys of the empire have been visiting frequently recently, and I have to deal with them constantly, do you think I'm easy?" Mo Sheng began to complain.

"Yes, yes, it's not easy. The three of them took a sip of tea together and responded in unison.

"And the day before yesterday, my best friend quarreled with someone, knowing that he was wronged, but so many people testified, I am not a substitute head of the family is not good to help, although he didn't say anything about me when he saw me afterwards, but I was worried! Do you say that I am not suitable to be the head of the family?"

"Yes, yes, no! You did a good job! The head of the house can only do it!" the other three drank their tea and replied casually, but fortunately they reacted quickly, and they were almost surrounded by this kid, and the four of them wiped their sweat together.

Mo Sheng stood up directly and stepped on the stool: "Do you know what I regret the most now? When my sister's bad news came, a few of you told me that the heavy responsibility of the Mo family was handed over to me, and I can't let my sister's hard work go to waste! Look at it! Look at what the Mo family has become by me, I have let you down, I beg you, let me go!"

The three of them didn't speak, they listened to Mo Sheng's complaints with a respectful attitude, and after a long time, when Mo Sheng had nagged enough, the elderly steward spoke: "Master of the family, if you are angry, go with us to deal with things, there have been many things recently, you can take care of it a little." ”

"It's the acting head of the family, the acting head of the family! Don't make a mistake! Anyway, when will you choose the new head of the family, hurry up and put the day on the agenda, this matter is the most important, you have to do it quickly!"

"That, the head of the family, no, the acting head of the family! Even if people are re-elected, it will not fall on others, who called you the younger brother of the former head of the family, you sisters and brothers have been very popular over the years!"

"The head of the family doesn't want to be the head of the family anymore, but the old man is a little interested, and he is willing to take on this great responsibility for the Mo family, I don't know what the family idea?" A voice came, and an old man came in from the side door and said in a kind voice.

"Hmph, Mo Qing, don't think that no one will know if you do it secretly. On the day of the accident of the former head of the family, you reported that you sent the elite of the clan to explore the ancient ruins, and never returned, don't think that we don't know your tricks, let us find evidence, and we must use the clan rules to completely abolish you. The steward glared angrily at the comer, the elder group had controlled the Mo family for many years, making the sky angry and resentful, the Mo Star rose strongly, and finally ushered in another glory, who knew that the head of the family was assassinated!

Mo Qing smiled: "You can't talk nonsense without evidence, now that the Mo family is united, it is time for us old people to step back and leave the stage to the young people, do you say, Lord of the family!"

"Hmph! Say something quickly, don't rely on the old and sell the old!" Mo Sheng also hated this person, they did it when his sister was killed, but the Mo family was in turmoil, and there can be no more civil strife, stabilize them first, and after their own side accumulates strength, they must be angry.

"Yes, the envoy of the Great Jin Kingdom has been waiting outside for three hours, should the family master go to meet him?" Mo Qing said.

What! The messenger came in the morning? Why didn't anyone come to report! Looking at Mo Qing's face, Mo Sheng knew directly that he must have made people hide it!

"Check, who is in charge of receiving the messengers!Bring someone for me!" Mo Sheng has been the head of the family for a while, and he also has a sense of prestige. At this moment, he was angry and full of momentum.

Di Yan, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom, has drunk I don't know how many cups of tea, as a messenger for many years, he has encountered many things, he has been treated as a guest, he has been threatened to throw the oil pot, and he has been treated coldly for a long time. But those who can do this will clearly understand their own status, and their own envoys represent the saints of the Great Jin Kingdom, and a small Mo family dares to treat themselves like this, and it is the face of the saints who say it. The Mo family has a new head of the family, and it is really starting to go downhill!

Di Yan waited patiently, he had experienced too much wind and rain, and his Qi cultivation kung fu was good enough, and he would not be affected by foreign objects.

Over there, Mo Sheng got the news and hurriedly came out to meet Di Yan, but before he walked in, he saw Di Yan alone with his eyes closed and recuperating, with a comfortable and complacent expression, and hurriedly showed a smile on his face, and said while clasping his fists and saluting: "There is a labor messenger who has been waiting for a long time, and he has been promoted! Please also ask Lord Di to have a large number of people, don't be angry!"

"The Mo family master is such a big shelf! In the lower envoy to the heavenly pilgrimage land, he did not let him wait for such a long time, the Mo family master first ascended to the throne, and he didn't expect to be so arrogant and complacent, and he didn't take Dajin in his eyes at all!" Di Yan said unceremoniously with a cold face.

Mo Sheng greeted him with a smile: "Where and where, the Mo family relies on the empire, where dare not know their status, it is really the fault of the inferior, come on, bring it up!"

Immediately, a man dressed as a servant was brought up, and Mo Sheng said to the messenger, "Do you remember this person?"

Di Yan nodded: "When I came down here, it was this person who received him and informed the Mo family master through him!"

"Say, who did you report to? Why didn't you report it to me, or did you report it to the higher-ups, but someone else didn't tell me?" Mo Sheng spoke, already a little majestic, making the servant cringe a little.

The man pounced and knelt down: "The villain should be damned, it was the villain who suddenly had a stomachache and was in a hurry to go to the thatched house, and then forgot about it!"

"You said you forgot these three hours?, you must know that sneering the envoy is a big deal, and if you don't do it, it will cause the empire to be angry and cause the Mo family to experience a catastrophe, can you afford this crime?" Mo Sheng said later, his tone aggravated, "Say! Is there anyone else interfering!"

The servant was in a cold sweat and trembled all over, but in the end he gritted his teeth: "Returning to the master of the family, it is the fault of the villain!"

Mo Sheng waved his hand: "If this is the case, let's give death, I wonder if the envoy will be able to reduce his anger a little?"

Di Yan was also stunned, no matter how infighting there was in the family, he would not be timid in front of outsiders, even if he wanted to explain to himself, he should talk about it afterwards, the young man in front of him punished the servant in front of him, where did he take the Mo family? In the end, he was young and not tough enough! In this way, it would be much easier for the empire to support the Mo family.

"Family master, although Xiao Lin made a mistake, the punishment should have been, but this is too heavy!" Mo Qing brought someone over, and the person next to him spoke officially.

"Stirring up the relationship between the empire and the Mo family, it has been verified now, if you don't give an explanation to the empire, if the empire is angry and the Mo family is destroyed, will Elder Mo Qing bear it?" Mo Sheng said coldly.

"This!"

Mo Sheng ignored it and waved his hand: "Pull it down, execute it immediately!"

A scream, from time to time, the family will bring a head, Mo Sheng endured the expression of vomiting, waved his hand and let people take it down and bury it.

Mo Qing walked away with a pale face, leaving a resentful look in his eyes.

"It's a joke for adults, and it's too much!" Mo Sheng turned his head to look at Di Yan and said respectfully.

"This envoy made a long story short, this time I came, it was an emergency at the border of the Great Jin, and the saint hoped that the Mo family would provide another group of soldiers to help fight, and after receiving the news, he would prepare immediately. Di Yan said emotionlessly.

There were only two people left in the room, Mo Sheng lost his humility, and sat lazily on the chair, "Dare to ask the envoy, is Dajin recruiting people in an all-round way, or is there only a few?"

"How about recruiting people in an all-round way? What about only looking for a few big families of the Mo family?"

"All the people are fighting, my Mo family will naturally work together and will never hold back, but if only a few families are found to contribute, the lives of my Mo family are precious, and they will never agree to this condition of the empire!"

Di Yan looked at this young man curiously, he had just killed a servant in front of him for a little thing, and now he said that his life was precious, who would he bluff?

"Isn't the Mo family afraid of provoking the wrath of the empire and bringing ruin to the entire clan?" Di Yan said.

"Hmph, my lord said that it was funny, the empire would not do this for no reason, even if it did, it would take its own people to leave, it was a big deal to change places, just to use this to separate from the group of elders in the elder group, if it weren't for the Mo family's foundation here, many people would not want to give up, and they would have taken people away early in the next morning, if the empire really did this, it would have helped me a lot!"

A reckless young man, modest on the outside, but in fact upright in heart, the Mo family is another master of Zhongxing after the previous head of the family, both sisters and brothers are so good, I don't know if it is the luck or misfortune of the empire?

After Di Yan left, Mo Sheng looked out the window alone. Mo'er, where are you? If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't leave behind all these affairs, my uncle would have come to you in person!
