Chapter 1608 The position of the head of the family
Chapter 1608 The position of the head of the family
"My uncle asked this question, which made me a little confused."

While talking, Mo Tong slowly looked into the eyes of his boss, Situ Xuan. When his eyes met, a sharp light shot out from Mo Tong's eyes, as if he wanted to see through Situ Xuan.

For a moment, Situ Xuan felt guilty.

Pursing his lips, Situ Xuan spoke for a long while, "What does Elder Fang mean by that?"

"What's the point?" With a chuckle, Mo Tong quickly said, "Although I've been busy investigating the cause of brother's death, I haven't turned a blind eye to other matters. As the old saying goes, if you want people to not know, unless you do nothing, what the uncle has done is naturally clearer than me. If that is the case, why do you bother to ask me?"

Mo Tong's words made it clear that he knew that everything was arranged by Situ Xuan.

Situ Xuan's expression turned ugly for a moment.

But now that the words have been spoken, he has nothing to hide. Looking at Mo Tong, Situ Xuan quickly said, "That's right, I was the one who released the news of Patriarch's death. I have received the news and can confirm it." It's true. Elder Fang, I have no choice but to do this."

"I have to?"

Muttering these four words, Mo Tong gave Situ Xuan a meaningful look without making any comments.

Situ Xuan quickly continued, "Elder Fang, our Situ family has stood tall in the Cangao Continent for many years. It has been among the six major families and has never fallen. This is the glory of our family. No matter what, this Situ family can only be controlled by the Situ family Therefore, the power cannot be left alone and let some irrelevant people get involved."

"Are you talking about Lord Zhan and Princess Zhan?"

"Yes."

Without even a single evasion, Situ Xuan's response was quick and candid.Facing Mo Tong's eyes, Situ Xuan said eagerly.

"Elder Fang, you are the elder of the Situ family and the pillar of the Situ family. Now that the head of the family has passed away and Elder Feng is gone, everything in this family depends on you. Come to think of it, you have seen it too, Elder Shui Elder He Yun had a selfless attitude on the surface, but in fact, they had already stood behind Ye Tianjue and Xia Qingge. They worked together and turned Situ's house into a mess. If this continues, then Situ Didn’t the family change their name and surname to become the Prince of Zhan’s Mansion? That’s okay? You have to take care of this matter, and only you can take care of it.”

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and at the end, Situ Xuan was filled with righteous indignation, and his voice raised a lot.

In contrast, Mo Tong had a calm expression on his face.

After Situ Xuan finished speaking, Mo Tong said softly, "Master, you think too highly of me. I can't get involved in such a big matter."

"Elder Fang..."

"For one thing, the life and death of the Patriarch has not yet been confirmed, and the rumors were released by the uncle himself. It is impossible for me to stand up for you just because of a play directed and acted by the patriarch. If the Patriarch returns safely, then I am not on my own. To die? Sir, you have to be considerate of me, right?
Secondly, even if something happened to the head of the family, the Situ family can't be leaderless, and a new head of the family should be elected.However, such a big matter is not in my hands alone.The identity of the uncle is obvious to all, so there is nothing to say about it, but Princess Zhan is a holy blood saint and is the orthodox bloodline of the Situ family.So... Grandpa, you are really hard on me. "

While talking, Mo Tong shook his head, he slowly picked up the teacup on the table, with a helpless look on his face.

That appearance made Situ Xuan feel extremely dazzling.

"What kind of orthodox direct descendant of the Situ family is she? How long has she entered the gate of the Situ family? What qualifications does she have to control the entire Situ family? Elder Fang, you are taking advantage of her by speaking well of her..."

"Master, speak carefully."

Knowing what Situ Xuan was going to say, Mo Tong interrupted him without waiting for him to finish.

Looking at Situ Xuan's eyes became a little colder, Mo Tong said quickly.

"I am the elder of the Situ family. Although I have a bit of selfishness, I can't be confused when it comes to right and wrong. I consider everything for the Situ family, and I also do it for the good of the Situ family. There is no doubt about it. Uncle Considering the layout, and playing the role by yourself, in this scene, you make me unable to trust you. So I can't promise you anything for the time being."

"But I am the uncle of the Situ family, the most legitimate successor of the Situ family."

"The old man is right. It's just that the head of the house should have announced this matter, but you said that the head of the house is dead without any evidence... Master, can you find the body of the head of the house? You said Something happened to him, do you have any witnesses?"

"I just got the news, and I didn't do it. How would I know that?"

Situ Xuan spoke with a strong dissatisfaction in his tone.

Mo Tong listened, and sighed deeply, "Then this matter is not easy to handle, sir, please understand my difficulty."

"Of course I understand you, Elder Fang, but you can't stay still like this. Once Elder Shui and Elder Yun take control of the overall situation and push Xia Qingge to take over, then what's the matter with me? At that time, the Situ family will change hands, and everything will be too late gone."

"What does the uncle want me to do?"

Mo Tong didn't talk much, but Situ Xuan heard a bit of resignation, with a little hope.

His eyes lit up instantly, Situ Xuan said quickly.

"The news of the Patriarch's death has already spread. Elder Fang, you should take this opportunity to gather all the elders and all the houses of the Situ family to elect me to the position. This must be done quickly, before Xia Qingge buys people's hearts... "

"It's not impossible to hold a meeting, but the uncle should be clear that the person who elects the superior may not be you."

At Situ's house, Situ Xuan really behaved too plainly.

If he hadn't occupied the position of an uncle, based on what he did, he would have been abused by others, and it's hard to say whether this life will survive.

The superior...why is he so confident?
As soon as Mo Tong finished speaking, Situ Xuan said, "Elder Fang can rest assured about this, and I will make arrangements. The position of Patriarch must be in my pocket. Naturally, Elder Fang will not be treated badly at that time." you."

Situ Xuan patted his chest and made a promise with Elder Fang, promising a lot of money.

Mo Tong listened, noncommittal.

He only said that he would arrange a meeting at home as soon as possible, but he didn't say anything else.But these words were the best news for Situ Xuan, and he left Elder Fang's yard happily.Perhaps because the expectations in his heart were fulfilled, Situ Xuan walked with his head held high, feeling much better physically.

As soon as Situ Xuan entered his yard, he saw Situ Haohong.

Thinking about today's matter, it was Situ Haohong's idea, Situ Xuan looked at him with softer eyes.

"Hong'er, why didn't you rest in the room?"
