"Brother Hanyan, it seems like they are talking about you." Mu Zexian was sober now and said to Mu Hanyan worriedly.
"Nonsense." Mu Hanyan rolled her eyes. It seemed that this guy was quite drunk and only just realized what was happening.
"Then what should we do? I know Mu Chengyang completed a lot of family tasks last year, and the share he deserved has exceeded that of the Nine Priests. If they use this as an excuse to deduct your share, it would be too unfair." Mu Zexian said with some indignation.
"Let's wait and see." Mu Hanyan smiled coldly.
She was now counting on Mu Chengyang's share. The two old guys had actually dealt her such a trick. If it were her previous life, she would have immediately lost her temper. However, after two lives, her temperament had become much calmer and more restrained, and she was not in a hurry to get angry.
After all, one of them is the Supreme Elder and the other is the Third Elder, both of them are elders. Even if they have bad intentions, they do have some truth in their words.
Of course, with Mu Hanyan's personality, she would never allow herself to be manipulated by others.
"Mu Hanyan, you heard what I said just now. What do you think?" When Mu Hanyan was secretly thinking about countermeasures, the Supreme Elder said with a smile.
The smile had returned to the kindness and gentleness of a clan elder, but Mu Hanyan only saw a fake smile and no real smile.
This old fox! Mu Hanyan cursed inwardly in annoyance.
"What the Grand Elder said is absolutely correct. Our Mu family is currently in a turbulent time. We must not cause any more troubles, but should keep a low profile and recuperate. I don't know who is so ignorant that he dares to stir up trouble and disturb the peace of the clan at this critical moment.
"We must not tolerate or condone this unfilial son who disrupts the peace of the clan and ruins the clan's affairs. He must be severely punished!" Mu Hanyan said indignantly.
Seeing Mu Hanyan's righteous expression, everyone felt a little dizzy.
Even a deaf person would have figured out who the Grand Elder was referring to. How could Mu Hanyan not know? Yet, he spoke so righteously, as if the matter had nothing to do with him at all.
How strong does one have to be to be able to say such words?
The Grand Elder's forehead was wrinkled into a big "川" shape. He thought that after what he said, Mu Hanyan would feel guilty and ashamed, but he didn't expect that others would act as if nothing had happened and scold him even more vigorously.
I've seen thick-skinned people, but I've never seen anyone as thick-skinned as this! A heavy feeling of powerlessness rose in the heart of the Grand Elder, and he suddenly felt that what he had just said was a little too subtle.
The Supreme Elder felt that he was defeated. He should not give any face to this person who was as thick-skinned as a city wall and was just at the corner.
"Our Mu clan is now isolated and helpless. As the saying goes, it's better to rely on ourselves than on others. Only when all the members of the clan are united and filial, and work together with sincerity and sincerity, can we overcome the difficulties. However, at this critical juncture, there are still people who disregard the overall situation and stir up trouble, causing unrest in the clan!
"Grand Elder, you don't need to give him face. Just tell me who it is. I'll give him a few slaps in the face and make him behave himself!" Just when the Grand Elder was secretly depressed, Mu Hanyan said angrily with a righteous look on her face.
Looking at Mu Hanyan's righteous face, everyone felt a little strange.
They didn't notice it when Mu Hanyan said the first sentence just now, but after hearing this sentence, it seemed something was wrong.
The Grand Elder was talking about stirring up trouble and making enemies everywhere, while Mu Hanyan was talking about stirring up trouble and disturbing the clan's peace. On the surface, they sounded the same thing, but when you think about it carefully, it seems that they are two completely different things.
Mu Hanyan offended many people after coming to the capital, but at least so far, she has not brought any trouble to the Zong family. If there is anything that has disturbed the Zong family, it is the family of the Grand Elder and the Third Elder who have been causing trouble every day.
Mu Hanyan's words seemed to be in agreement with the Grand Elder, but in fact, she changed the subject and scolded them as well.
"Puff!" On the high platform, Mu Beichen couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.
This precious granddaughter is so eccentric and sharp-tongued that it makes people laugh and cry.
Honestly, he was quite disdainful of the Grand Elder's actions. The capital was home to numerous aristocratic families, and it was no big deal if they all had a few mischievous young men. According to the aristocratic families' judgment of character, those who followed the rules and were timid and cautious were unlikely to achieve much. As long as their character was sound, those who were bold and daring, and who dared to take extraordinary actions, often achieved greater success.
In fact, whether it was Mu Beichen, the Third Elder, or the Supreme Elder himself, they were not good men and women when they were young, but the elders at that time did not punish them severely.
But the Grand Elder used this as an excuse to embarrass Mu Hanyan, which was a true fallacy and was unbecoming of his status as the Grand Elder of the clan.
But no matter what, the Supreme Elder was of an extraordinary status, and what he said made some sense, so Mu Hanyan had no way to argue with him.
Therefore, Mu Beichen was ready to argue for his rights and seek justice for his precious granddaughter.
But who would have thought that Mu Han followed the words of the Grand Elder and cursed indignantly, but he ended up cursing back the two instigators, the Grand Elder and the Third Elder.
"This little bitch, he is the supreme elder after all, can't you give him some face? You even slapped him a few times, and you dare to say such outrageous words, you are too bold." Mu Beichen was angry and amused, but he felt very happy in his heart.
He finally realized that when it came to bickering, the Supreme Elder and the Third Elder combined were no match for Mu Hanyan. Their plan to use this as an excuse to withhold Mu Hanyan's cultivation resources would most likely fail.
The people in the audience obviously understood the implication of Mu Hanyan's words, and their faces looked extremely strange, as if they were imagining the scene of Mu Dawanku slapping the Supreme Elder in the face a few times. They wanted to laugh, but were too embarrassed to laugh out loud. They kept holding it in until they were about to get internal injuries.
The old face of the Supreme Elder, which had white hair and a youthful appearance but looked quite like an immortal, had turned the color of liver. He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He pointed at Mu Hanyan and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Mu Hanyan, stop talking nonsense and misidentifying people. The person the Grand Elder is talking about is you!" The Third Elder saw that something was not right and did not dare to let Mu Hanyan continue scolding him, so he scolded her sternly.
The Third Elder also felt deep sympathy for the Grand Elder's plight. You're already quite old, and your brain is naturally slow to react. How could you possibly win a verbal battle with this playboy? Just give him a scolding. Why bother trying to manipulate his identity, make innuendos, and be mysterious? Aren't you asking for trouble?
