Chapter 302 Just for the Yuan Family

Lintel, noble species…

There was no abnormality on Yuan Mochu’s face when she said these words, as if what she said was natural.

Yuan Mochu has always been a woman who is arrogant to the core. There was no trace of surprise when she said this, as if everything was so natural.

Li Changge did not refute, but just watched her go crazy quietly, and then asked lightly: “Mo Chu, what do you think the family lintel is? What is the difference between a rich family and a poor family? What is the difference between a rich family and ordinary people?”

Yuan Mochu frowned and didn’t respond. Reason told her that there was definitely a trap in Li Changge’s words and she shouldn’t respond.

But Li Changge is not an NPC who will not trigger the plot without dialogue. Seeing Yuan Mochu remained silent, Li Changge opened his mouth and said:
“Why don’t you answer me? Is it because it’s too tacky?”

“The so-called differences in family background, in the final analysis, are nothing more than the amount of money and power.”

“But Mo Chu, you don’t seem to realize that the Yuan family, which you are so proud of, has actually fallen into decline.”

Yuan Mochu turned his head away with difficulty and looked at Li Changge who was smiling faintly. His handsome face looked like the most terrifying devil in the world.

“are you joking around with me?”

“Don’t you know best whether I’m joking or not?”

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”

Li Changge heard this and said, “I am not lying. Why don’t you go back and take a look yourself? I won’t stop you.”

……

……

……

Yuan Mochu really didn’t expect that Li Changge would let her go so easily.

Without any restrictions, any obstructions, or even any surveillance, Yuan Mochu simply returned to the Yuan Mansion in Luoyang which he had been away from for a long time.

But this did not surprise Yuan Mochu, but made him feel a little uneasy.

Looking up at the plaque of Yuan Mansion, the gilded characters were as majestic as ever, but under Li Changge’s strong psychological suggestion, Yuan Mochu actually read a bit of desolation when looking at the plaque.

Entering the atrium, the sparse figures made Yuan Mochu frown.

But Yuan Mochu still comforted himself in his heart that the loss of power was only temporary, and the glory of his Yuan family that had lasted for a thousand years would never disappear. The noble race would always rise again one day!
It was not until Yuan Mochu met his uncle that she suddenly understood the meaning of “down and out” in Li Changge’s words.

Yuan Kui is the patriarch of the Yuan family, a very serious and respectable man. As far as Yuan Mochu could remember, he had never seen his uncle lose his composure like this.

He was squatting in the corner of the courtyard, his luxurious coat full of wrinkles, his eyes bloodshot, his black eyebrows tightly locked between his brows, and his messy beard growing wildly and unruly.

Yuan Mochu had never thought that he would see such a terrible uncle, so terrible that it seemed as if his soul had been taken away.

“Uncle…”

Yuan Kui, who was in a trance, heard Yuan Mochu’s voice and suddenly came to his senses, looking at Yuan Mochu with some surprise.

But then this expression of surprise gradually disappeared, and then Yuan Kui seemed a little lost.

“Mo Chu, did you come back alone?”

Yuan Kui considered his words and asked cautiously.

Just this simple question made Yuan Mochu feel her hands and feet were cold in the hot summer. She forgot what happened in the middle, she just felt that hell was empty and the devil was on the earth.

Her uncle, her most respected uncle, the patriarch of the Yuan family, was actually expecting her to wag her tail and beg for mercy from that dog emperor… Yuan Mochu was so angry that she couldn’t speak, and her voice was stuck in her throat like a fish bone.

The Yuan family was the foundation of her pride and her most solid backing. However, when she looked back suddenly, she found that the once powerful Yuan family had already become dilapidated.

Seeing Yuan Mochu’s embarrassed look, Yuan Kui realized something, and he looked at Yuan Mochu almost pleadingly.

“Uncle, has it gotten this bad?”

“That’s about right. Our Yuan family’s resources have been completely exhausted, and in Luoyang, they are like monkeys scattering when the tree falls.”

Yuan Mochu was silent. Who on earth had exhausted the Yuan family’s wealth? Yuan Mochu seemed to know this question better than anyone else.

“Mo Chu, I’m begging you.”

“Just think of it as bowing to His Majesty for the sake of the Yuan family, okay?”

“His Majesty still has feelings for you. As long as you are willing to bow your head, perhaps our Yuan family still has a glimmer of hope.”

The Yuan family is a prominent family with three dukes for four generations. Of course, they can’t be easy to deal with. No matter whether it is the main branch or the branch, although their eating manners are not bad, they have always had a big appetite.

If the Yuan family still loses power, it will be a trivial matter and can be covered up with a wave of the hand.

But the Yuan family has lost its power at this moment, and Li Changge doesn’t give them any face at all. All this accumulated hatred is like a raging fire that is about to burn the Yuan family.

Want me to beg him?
Are you kidding me?
How could our Yuan family, with three officials in four generations, have fallen to this point?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
It would be better to kill me than to ask me to bow down to that dog emperor!

Yuan Mochu was madly roaring and shouting in his heart, but when these words of rebuttal came to his mouth, they turned into…

“I understand…Uncle…”

The words of rejection turned into a bitter response when they reached my lips.

There was no way, he was her uncle, an uncle who trusted her wholeheartedly.

The Yuan family emptied out their family resources to support her. Now that she has failed, shouldn’t the Yuan family do something?

My uncle’s son is still in prison. Yuan Wei is not a warrior. He is sentenced to exile three thousand miles away and there is a high probability that he will die on the way.

At least, at least we have to save my uncle’s son.

The sky gradually darkened. Yuan Mochu left the Yuan Mansion under the cover of night and walked silently towards the palace gate.

As he approached the palace gate, Yuan Mochu suddenly forced out a self-deprecating smile, and ultimately chose not to enter through the main gate.

He moved to a hidden part of the palace wall and quietly sneaked into the palace.

Perhaps because of his inner hesitation, or perhaps because he was not familiar with the palace, Yuan Mochu took a long time before he reached the gate of Qiantian Garden.

Taking a deep breath, Yuan Mochu slowly walked into Qiantian Garden.

There were candles in the hall, and faint cries of women’s passion could be heard, and it seemed that there was more than one…

As soon as he stepped into the hall, he was greeted by a rather unbearable scene. Li Changge was holding a black-skinned loli with one hand and a pink-haired cute girl with the other. In front of him, a mixed-blood with a shrewd look was working hard to practice his innate magical powers.

“Hey, isn’t this Mo Chu? What a rare guest!”

Faced with the deep mockery in Li Changge’s eyes, Yuan Mochu’s heart suddenly surged with manic rage, but Yuan Kui’s desperate eyes were like a downpour that instantly extinguished the rage.

Yuan Mochu didn’t say anything, but just walked forward slowly, and the black robe on his body fell with every step.
