"Young master, rest assured, with me in the family, those people won't be able to stir up any trouble." Elder Mo bowed respectfully, solemnly swearing to ensure Zheng Ji's safety.
"For now, those elders don't dare openly challenge me, and my trip to Yanjing is under the guise of an investigation. They can't stop me outright and become subjects of gossip. Therefore... I need you, during the time I'm in Yanjing, to help me stabilize them as much as possible. And, if they make any moves, report to me promptly." Zheng Ji's tone was serious, and Elder Mo's expression grew even more grave. He was a family elder and had raised Zheng Ji, teaching him skills. In Huaxia's culture, a master holds the same status as a father. As a result, their relationship was both superior-subordinate and "teacher-student, father-son." From a young age, Zheng Ji was a gentleman, gentle yet not weak, strong and unwavering in dealing with matters. If cultivated properly, he could be an excellent family leader.
