Originally, Patriarch Mo ordered to gather the clansmen of the eight major clans to gather at the sacrificial ground to deal with the sinners Patriarch Li and Patriarch Wu, but Zhuge Yi broke the hands and tendons of the two, and the two of them had become invalids.Ling 18 persuaded Zhuge Yi not to go too far, Li and Wu were members of the eight clans after all, and they should be punished in accordance with the "Ancestral Rules" if they made mistakes.Patriarch Mo thanked Ling Eighteen for his understanding, how did he know that Ling Eighteen opened his mouth to bargain: first, it was not allowed to recover the silver from the silver treasury of the Porcelain Source Hall; Second, he will take his sister-in-law back to Yanxia Town to recuperate; Third, the reconstruction is led by Patriarch Mo, don't bother his sister-in-law.On behalf of the eight clans, Patriarch Mo solemnly promised Ling 18 that when the ancestor of Feng's daughter Kang Yu returned, she would not be wronged again.That's what he said, but everyone knows the difference between Patriarch Mo's promise and fart.He only represents the Mo clan and can't control the behavior of others.Ling Eighteen temporarily believed in the promise of Patriarch Mo, and returned to Yanxia Town with Li Haitang with Zhuge Yi.In the early morning of this cold winter, the thick and choking black smoke continued to drift away from the center of Ciyu Town in all directions, and the Yansheng Hall, the Xiqiao Pavilion, the Wuxin Courtyard and the Longfu Family Temple, which had been inherited for a hundred years, were burned down; The silver treasury of the porcelain source hall, which had been stored for a hundred years, was emptied; The most respected rulers in the hearts of the clansmen of the eight major clans have encountered a crisis that has not been seen in a century.Losing the "foundation silver" of the porcelain source hall treasury, it is not easy to rebuild Yansheng Hall, Xian Pavilion, Wuxin Courtyard and Longfu Family Temple.The powerful men led by Patriarch Mo had sad faces all day long, borrowing wine to dispel their sorrows, and while covering their money bags, they cursed Patriarch Li and Patriarch Wu that they would never turn over.The reputation of the eight patriarchs plummeted, and whenever they appeared in Porcelain Yu Town, they would always attract countless eyes of disgust, disgust, and contempt; Young and ignorant children would make up nursery rhymes that ridiculed them for their incompetence and cruelty to innocents; Their carriages were smeared with horse manure wherever they stopped in the town of Porcelain.Obviously he didn't do anything wrong but was angry, and several patriarchs invariably recorded their hatred on the accounts of the two patriarchs, Li and Wu, and sooner or later they had to settle accounts with them.As the saying goes: there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings.The eight patriarchs lived in seclusion, and one by one they took their families to the grange on the outskirts of the town, and prepared to spend the New Year on the grange.The patriarchs fled, and the old men who spent all day drinking couldn't resist the disdain of the people, and they also looked for a leisurely place to spend the New Year.Rats leave a sinking ship.In the absence of the leader, the business of each clan must continue, and the affairs of each clan need to be decided by the person in charge.Therefore, the second master faction of the eight major clans began to emerge, and one by one they burst out of their own unique governance methods, bringing a new round of changes to the eight major clans, which was unexpected by the few patriarchs who fled.Porcelain Source Hall, the largest wing house in the east of the front yard, is as warm as spring, and more than a dozen charcoal braziers are burning excellent silver frost charcoal.The house is full of tea fragrance, and when you enter the door, you will know that it is the young bud tea picked in spring, and the old tea craftsman will fry it by himself so that the young buds still have a trace of water, and he will pinch out a single chew in the mouth full of tea fragrant, slightly bitter and sweet.Li Erye loves to chew tea, and this habit originated when he was young, when his father sat on his lap and pinched a tender tea bud that had not yet been fully soaked and stuffed it into his mouth to induce him to grind his teeth.Second Master Mo slanted his gaze at Second Master Li, who was fuguing when he was chewing tea, and turned his head to Second Master Wu across the table and said, "Is Second Master Li calling us to come to Ciyuan Hall today to watch him chew tea?"
”Second Master Wu smiled and didn't answer, staring down at the only white water in his tea bowl, not even the taste of tea.Si Mingtang, the eldest son of Si Mingtang, who was sitting opposite, put down the tea bowl, looked at the sky outside the window, and said, "My father's cough recurred today, and my little nephew may have to take the first step." ”"The eldest nephew of the Si family has reached the age of being in charge of the family, don't rely on the elderly father all day long.The position of patriarch will be passed on to you after all, and now that the turmoil continues, you just have to experience experience. ”Second Master Li spit out the tasteless tea leaves, took a sip of the tea bowl, and continued: "It is really infuriating that my indisputable patriarch brother and the patriarch of the Wu clan have done such crimes, which has brought disaster to the reputation of the clan and been spurned by the clan.But after all, they are our compatriots and brothers, and they can abandon their people, but we cannot ignore them. ”"What do you mean by Li's second brother?"
Second Master Mo was tempted, and Second Master Li acquiesced.Second Master Wu frowned and said, "I can't do it."
I don't have the skills to do business, and I can't manage the affairs of the clan.In my opinion, it is better to call the third child to come over, his eldest son has passed to the patriarch, and they should replace the eldest brother of the patriarch. ”"Coward."
Second Master Li looked at Second Master Mo with contempt, "How did Second Brother Mo plan it?"
Although Patriarch Mo did not participate, it would be too unkind for him to escape and throw the mess at you. ”"Hmm.I will send someone to Zhuangzi to ask the patriarch for advice, and if he agrees, I will take power." ”Second Master Mo behaved extremely naturally, not grabbing or snatching everything, and obeying Patriarch Mo's arrangement.The cunning Second Master Li didn't understand what Second Master Mo meant, on the one hand, he secretly said that the Mo family brothers were scheming, and on the other hand, he was envious of the brothers who worked together to help each other.Smacking his mouth and smacking his mouth felt that the bitterness was too strong, he took another sip of tea to dilute the sour and bitter astringency, and said to Second Master Wu: "I heard that the patriarch of Wu is recuperating at home, and several doctors who are seriously injured are powerless.Second Master Wu is still busy looking for famous doctors for the Wu patriarch, and the reconstruction will be discussed by a few of us. ”"I didn't care about it in the first place, you want the silver to find the third child.The matter of searching for a famous doctor will be left to the fourth child, and I will just listen here. ”Second Master Wu said it bluntly, and also admitted that he was an incompetent person.Second Master Li smiled: "Second Brother Wu was very good at reading back then, why can't he even make up his mind now?"
The rebuilding of Yanshengtang is too big, and it is even more important to plan carefully if it falls on our shoulders. ”"Second Li, don't blame me for speaking too coldly, we can't afford this big thing."
Second Master Mo said coldly, put down the tea bowl and got up to shake the hem of his robe, and said, "The evildoers are the Li Patriarch and the Wu Patriarch, and the reconstruction will be discussed by you."
I have a distinguished guest to treat in Wuweiju, so I will leave first!
”"Second Brother Mo, slow down."
Second Master Li got up and caught up, and said, "Second Brother Mo really doesn't want to control the Mo clan?"
”Second Master Mo looked back at Second Master Li and sneered: "Do you think everyone is the same as you?"
Shameless villain!
Hum!
”Shake your sleeves and disdain to be in the company of villains.Second Master Li squinted his eyes and stared at the back of Second Master Mo walking out of the door, and a wave of anger rose in his heart.One day, he will see Mo Lao Er rebelling, seeing the Mo brothers fighting, and seeing the Mo clan fall."
Second Uncle Li, don't think about it, Patriarch Mo is hiding too deeply, and we are not his opponents."
Si Mingtang said in a low voice when he passed by Second Master Li, and after bowing respectfully, he left quietly without alarming anyone."
If you want money, go to the third child, I'll ......
I'm gone too. ”Second Master Wu walked to the gate dejectedly, glad that he had not fallen into the trap of Li Er.He was reluctant to come here today, and he always felt that Li Lao Er was not well-intentioned, but he couldn't help his wife's persuasion, so he had to come hard.Walking out of the door, a small guy came to him, and stepped forward and said, "Second master, the patriarch sent a villain to invite you to come over the house to discuss important matters." ”"Me?
Are you sure it's not the third?
”Second Master Wu pointed to the tip of his nose and asked, seeing the little guy nodding wildly, he was so surprised that he didn't know what to do.() Glory to the end
