Mu Wan Qing’s words were like a thunderbolt, breaking open a new world for the Mu family members.

Third Master Mu’s son hurriedly said, “Grandmother, I don’t want to go to jail, I don’t want to be beheaded. I know grandmother loves me the most, please help your grandson.”

Hearing this, the third master Mu also instantly shouted, “Mother, let’s kick our third family out, I’d rather be a person without a clan than die here.”

Her son and grandsons were the hearts and souls of old lady Mu, but at the critical moment, they tried their best to clear the relationship. 

Seeing this, old lady Mu suddenly felt cold. She vomited blood in anger, and her eyes turned white.

Her heart was so painful that she could not care about solving Mu Wan Qing first.

Seeing the entangled Mu family, the corner of Mu Wan Qing’s mouth slightly raised, this was the sons and grandson that the old lady loved most.

A group of idiots didn’t even think about where they were. It was possible to get rid of the family relationship before the accident, but now, it was absolutely impossible.

In the first round, Mu Wan Qing vs. Old Lady Mu, she won!

In the Imperial Study Room of the Royal Palace, the country’s most honorable father and son were sitting face to face, sipping tea and playing chess, while the small golden cauldron on the side filled the room with calming incense.

The chief Eunuch softly said, “Your Majesty, Wu Dong Ming, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, has come to report.”

The Emperor’s eyes fell on the white jade on the chessboard, “Let him come in.”

Wu Dong Ming didn’t dare to look around after he came in, and respectfully greeted the Emperor and the Prince.

“Get up.” The Emperor looked nonchalant and was holding a white chess piece in his right hand.

Hearing the command, Wu Dong Ming stood up straight and carefully presented the checklist.

The Emperor slightly raised his eyes, flipped through the list, and then handed it to the Prince beside him.

The Prince was dressed in regular clothes, with a face like a white jade, handsome and unparalleled, but his complexion was not very good, and he looked a little sick.

“The Marquiness Mansion is quite willing, some of the betrothal gifts are rare treasures. Hey, this is what the Mu family has accumulated over the generations??”

The Mu family ancestors have worked as a Prime Minister and a governor. The ancestors were powerful and honored.

This didn’t match up with what had been seized. There were many things on the list, but not as many as he imagined.

The Emperor knew the situation of the Mu family very well, “Each generation of the Mu family will divide their family property. According to the family rules of the Mu family, the direct descendants who inherit the Mu family will get the half, and those who go out will share the other half.”

In this generation, Old Lady Mu did not split up the family till now. She cherished her sons and grandsons and was reluctant to split up like this.

The Mu family has a third-rank official, and it was good to enjoy the shade under the big tree rather than be separated and live alone.

Once they are separated, even the marriage of their children would be difficult.

“The Mu family has been prosperous for a hundred years, their daily life is very extravagant. They are full of a pompous lifestyle, even their maids are pampered and dressed in gold and silver.”

“Women in the family are in charge of housekeeping and business management. And old lady Mu is not very good at business, but she is short-sighted, greedy for power, and loves money like life, so she refuses to delegate power to others in the family.”

“…The two sons she gave birth to also followed her, one loves money and the other loves power. None of them have good capabilities.”

Hearing this, the prince raised his eyebrows lazily, the father was really displeased with the Mu family.

The Emperor spoke casually and turned to look at Wu Dong Ming, “Did this trip go smoothly?”

“It went well.” Wu Dong Ming hesitated for a moment, “but…”

Hearing the hesitation, the Emperor slightly frowned.

Seeing Emperor frowning, Wu Dong Ming carefully said, “The third lady of the Mu family is a wonderful person.”

He recounted the whole process of raiding the house without adding any emotion, or concealing anything, he explained everything one by one.

Hearing Mu Wan Qing’s flattery, the Emperor was a little stunned and a bit complacent.

Well, what kind of flattery does a young girl know??

Hearing the whole story, the Prince suddenly became interested, “You mean, this third young lady sang praises to the Emperor Father in public? How old is she??”

It was normal for an old official man to act like this, but if it was a little girl… it was a little joyful.
