Chapter 231 Very good! Very good! Very good!

With such a big hat thrown on his head, Mu Li naturally didn't dare to admit it.

The closer one gets to his level, the more he understands one thing: some rules can be broken, some rules can be violated, and even some rules can be manipulated.

But there are some bottom line rules that can never be crossed.

There will always be people better than you. As a veteran with decades of experience, Mu Li understands this truth best.

Even though he is now second only to the Mu family, a single word from him can shock the Mu family.

But in the outside world, there are many people who can crush his Mu family.

Just in Guangzhou, there are three aristocratic families that are not weaker than the Mu family, or even slightly stronger.

There are at least a handful of people like Mr. Zhong in Guangzhou.

Just like what a certain hawk once said, falling behind doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get beaten, it’s just that I don’t want to beat you!

The principle is the same.

Mu Li took a deep breath and softened his tone: "Okay, these things are their own fault. They deserve it. I won't blame you."

"But in the final analysis, apart from the laws of Daxia, our Mu family has its own family rules and clan regulations. No matter what, you have indirectly or directly violated the first clan rule, causing harm or perhaps the death of a member of the Mu family. You have also provoked the Mu family to kill each other. As a member of the Mu family, do you admit it or not?"

"Admit it? Why shouldn't I admit it?"

To everyone's surprise, Mu Qingcheng admitted it very readily.

Mu Qingcheng glanced at those who were shocked by her frank admission and said disdainfully, "I'm not like those rats who dare to do something but not to admit it."

"That's right. The deaths of those people were all related to me. I was the one who planned to kill them."

Mu Qingcheng's words naturally angered everyone. Mu Jiu's group was furious and yelled at Mu Qingcheng:

"Great! You finally admitted it! You freshman!"

"Second Master, enforce the clan rules and regulations!"

"Kick Mu Qingcheng, this traitor who murdered her own people, out of the Mu family! And put her on the Mu family's blacklist forever! We will never stop until she dies!"

"Yes! Fight till death!"

Although he was somewhat surprised by Mu Qingcheng's attitude, seeing her admit it, Mu Li immediately said, "Okay, you have guts! You are worthy of being a descendant of the Mu family! However, since you have violated the family rules, I will deal with you according to the family rules today..."

"and many more!"

Just when Mu Li was about to cut the Gordian knot and directly convict Mu Qingcheng, Mu Qingcheng interrupted him.

Mu Qingcheng said calmly: "My dear grandfathers, second grandfathers, I want to ask a question. It won't be too late to judge me after you have answered it."

Hearing Mu Qingcheng's words, Mu Li's heart suddenly skipped a beat and his face gradually became gloomy.

A bad premonition had already come to Mu Li's heart. He seemed to have guessed what questions Mu Qingcheng wanted to ask.

"At this point, you're still asking why? I..."

Just when Mu Li wanted to immediately convict Mu Qingcheng of a crime and then enforce family rules and regulations on her without giving her a chance to speak.

The one-eyed old man who had been sitting next to Mu Li and looked to be in his twilight years and on the verge of collapse spoke:

"Okay, Qingcheng, if you have any questions, just ask."

Mu Qingcheng said directly: "According to the Mu family's clan rules, does my child count as a member of the Mu family?"

Upon hearing this, the whole place was in an uproar.

Mu Jiu laughed out of anger and said sarcastically, "Mu Qingcheng! Your bastard child doesn't even know who his father is? Don't you have the nerve to say you're a member of the Mu family?!"

"that is!"

Mu Qingcheng was not angry at their words, but sneered and questioned them:

"Oh? Only me, my family, and my grandfather know that I have a child. How did you know about my child?"

"Or, how do you know that my children are bastards? I don't know who their fathers are?"

"Don't tell me about my wild play. It's not surprising that I have some wild men outside. When it comes to playing, who can compare to you guys who are lazy and only know how to spend money on wine and women?"

"Besides, if you can find even a little evidence that I have a man outside, I will kill myself in front of our ancestors without you having to do anything!"

"Besides, even if I did, my father, my grandfather, and my family, the people closest to me, don't know about these things. How could you know?"

"Could it be that you have installed a 24-hour bug on me? Or, are you able to predict that I have a child, but can't figure out who the father of my child is?"

As soon as Mu Qingcheng said this, Mu Jiu's group fell silent. Only then did they realize that they had let the cat out of the bag, and their faces instantly became embarrassed.

Seeing the ugly expressions of these people, Mu Zhan and Old Man Mu were stunned for a moment, then they reacted.

Their faces looked equally ugly.

However, they didn’t expect that these people had obviously known about Qingcheng having a child for a long time, except for them, the father and grandfather, who didn’t know!

Mu Zhan and Old Man Mu exchanged glances, and the two old foxes instantly understood everything.

Mu Zhan looked at those people and sneered, "No wonder the old clan leader and I have never known the whereabouts of Qingcheng's child. It seems that our Mu family is quite united!"

"It seems that I am a failure as the clan leader. Most of the Mu family members know that my daughter is pregnant, except me and her grandfather!"

"Very good! Very good! Very good!"

Feeling the chill and murderous intent in Mu Zhan's words, except for Mu Li and a few old people, the other members of the Mu family couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling and their bodies running cold.

You know, even in the Mu family, which has always been protective of its children, Mu Zhan is famous for his protectiveness.

When someone secretly took action and caused his eldest son to become infertile, Mu Zhan almost overthrew the entire Mu family!

He even gave up the position of clan leader that he had just obtained!

If some old people had not come forward at the end, and if the person who caused Mu Zhan to be infertile had not committed suicide by taking poison, it would be hard to imagine what kind of crazy thing Mu Zhan would do.

Not to mention, Mu Zhan now knows that it was they who concealed the news about Mu Qingcheng's child, which led to Mu Qingcheng's child being stranded outside for many years.

The consequences were so severe that their hair stood on end just thinking about them.

Some people are even planning to slip out of the country as soon as the meeting is over to avoid the spotlight.

Faced with this question, Mu Li, who was known as the most fair and selfless person in the Mu family, did not dare to say a word.

Because he knew what the consequences would be if he admitted it.

But it seems that he has no choice but to admit it or not in the current situation.

After discussing with several elders, the one-eyed old man nodded and said, "Then he is naturally considered a member of our Mu family."

"According to clan rules, we don't care who the father of the child is, but as long as we can prove that the child came from your belly, then he has the blood of my Mu family and can naturally be considered a member of my Mu family."

The Mu family doesn’t care who your father or mother is. As long as one of your parents is from the Mu family, their children will naturally be members of the Mu family.

Just because Mu Qingcheng is a girl doesn’t mean we won’t deny her child.

Obviously, Mu Qingcheng knew this.

After getting the answer he wanted, Mu Qingcheng took a deep breath and continued to ask:

"Well, then if someone kills my child, does that count as a violation of family rules and regulations?"
