Chapter 526: The Queen of Business and the Emperor of Politics
Shanghai City, the southeast suburbs of the prosperous area, a large mansion in the crowded residential area stands out from the crowd, the courtyard of the mansion is brilliant, extremely luxurious, but the outside of the courtyard is quiet and elegant, flowers and plants are thick, full of green, such as the land of peach source.
This large mansion is located in a prosperous suburb, but it occupies a large area of land, and the surrounding buildings are cleaned up and planted with flowers and plants to return to nature, which is outrageously extravagant.
But even Nan Piao, who had to squeeze into a cramped rented house, did not dare to openly complain about the owner of this big mansion, even if he was an arrogant nouveau riche worth hundreds of millions, he did not dare to have a trace of covetousness for this big mansion.
Because this mansion is the "Prince's Mansion".
The reason why "Prince's Mansion" is in quotation marks is because this mansion was indeed the residence of a certain sad prince who was exiled from the imperial capital to the south, but the era of imperial power has completely ended more than 1,500 years ago, and the so-called "prince" has become history like "eunuchs".
The era of imperial power fell, and the last generation of the royal family naturally suffered, not to mention the tragic ending of the imperial family, but the interesting thing is that the crown prince, who was suspected of improper blood because the queen gave the emperor a green hat, escaped because he was exiled to the south, far from the northern imperial capital.
What's even more interesting is that the crown prince endured humiliation and hardship, and secretly continued the bloodline of the royal family, and after decades of hard work, he re-established a new family.
This family has grown in strength for 1,500 years, and today it is one of the most prominent families in the Xia Kingdom, although it did not dare to sit on the name of the royal family in the democratic era, but its family strength is so strong that it is not an exaggeration to call it "imperial family".
This witnessing the fall of the royal family and the re-emergence of the royal family, from a simple thatched cottage to a magnificent mansion, is really worthy of the name of "Prince's Mansion".
- The Li family of the Southern Emperor is the former royal family.
This mansion is the only heir of the Li family, the prince's mansion of Li Wuyu.
It's just that this No. 1 young man in the Xia Kingdom, who is worthy of the name of "Prince" regardless of family talent or popularity, is lying in the sandalwood coffin in the hall of the Prince's Mansion at this time, falling into a deep sleep forever.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the night was getting deeper, but the mansion was brightly lit but unusually quiet.
In the spacious and bright hall, the sofas and tables that received guests at this time have been emptied, and only the coffins are placed, and even the mourning wreaths sent by various forces are not qualified to enter this temporarily arranged mourning hall.
Probably in order not to disturb Li Wuyu's "rest", the subordinates were dismissed early, and those guests who came to the door to say "condolences" were also turned away.
So much so that at this time, in the courtyard of the mansion, there were only some relatives of the Li family who were close to Li Wuyu.
In the mourning hall, there are only two relatives who are closest to Li Wuyu - Li Wuyu's biological mother Mu Chaorong and sister Mu Lengxi.
Mu Chaorong is over forty years old to middle age, but the years have not left too many traces on her face, her beautiful face looks like a woman in her twenties, and she has beautiful silver hair like Mu Lengxi, but she has cut her hair short, and she looks more energetic and capable.
It's just that Mu Chaorong at this time is not as radiant as before, her eyes are red and swollen, her face is full of tears, her expression is haggard, leaning over, next to the coffin, looking at the handsome young man sleeping in the coffin stupidly, her eyes are dull, sobbing from time to time, and she seems to be more than ten years old all of a sudden.
Mu Lengxi stood beside Mu Chaorong, holding her hand tightly, her expression sad, her eyes worried, and her eyes were red.
In the Nine Turns of the Transcendent Tower, she had been crying with Mu Yuesheng for three days, thinking that her tears had dried up and she could face her grief more "calmly", but when Mu Chaorong saw her son's corpse, her tear glands collapsed and cried, and Mu Lengxi's tears also fell in an instant.
Before this, Mu Lengxi had never seen his mother cry like this, not even her weak side.
As the youngest person at the helm of the Mu Group, Mu Chaorong can be described as a strange woman in the business world, she is calm and comfortable in the business war, and she is easy to deal with, only ten years in power, the Mu family's assets have doubled, and she has become a chaebol giant in the Xia Kingdom second only to the Xiao family.
When the boss first faced the doubts and exclusion of the company's elders, she did not frown.
When Mu's Group encountered the biggest crisis, shareholders rebelled, and internal and external troubles, she was still calm.
When she divorced the young "emperor" of the Li family, she even smiled.
No matter what kind of predicament he faced, Mu Lengxi had never seen his mother show a trace of panic, but now, in the pain of losing a child, Mu Chaorong was crying, more fragile and sad than anyone else.
She turned away relatives and visitors, probably because she didn't want people to see her weak attitude that was completely inconsistent with the "queen of business", right?
Mu Lengxi was saddened, not only because of his brother's death, but also because he felt sorry for his mother.
But she didn't know how to comfort her mother, so she could only hold her hand and accompany her to grieve.
Syllable!
Suddenly, the closed hall door was pushed open.
Mu Lengxi turned his head in shock, who suddenly disturbed at this time when it was close to midnight?
When he saw who was coming through the light, Mu Lengxi breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart that had just fallen was immediately raised again.
Suddenly pushed open the hall door, and the person who walked towards the coffin without hurried was a middle-aged man, the man was handsome, starry eyebrows and sword eyes, because his face was expressionless and looked mature and steady, for some uncle-controlled girls, it was a second-kill existence, his facial features were seven or eight points similar to Li Wuyu, it was obviously Li Wuyu and Mu Lengxi's biological father, the "emperor" of the Li family's generation - Li Fuhu.
If Mu Chaorong is the queen of the business world.
Then Li Fuhu is the emperor of the political circles, and he became the premier of the State Council at the age of 45, and his wrists are awe-inspiring.
The combination of Mu Chaorong and Li Fuhu was originally a good story, and it also meant that the powerful Li family and the business giant Mu family joined forces.
But it's a pity that eight years ago, when Mu Lengxi was five years old, Mu Chaorong and Li Fuhu's ten-year marriage concluded due to family interests ended in a hurry because of personality incompatibility, and the two had a boy and a girl, so they each raised one, Mu Chaorong simply changed his daughter's surname to "Mu", and Li Lengxi became the current Mu Lengxi.
Mu Lengxi and her father Li Fuhu have not seen each other for eight years, and in the impression left when she was young, she remembers that her father is an unsmiling and extremely serious person, and she has never even seen him smile.
What impressed me even more was that his father rarely came home and was busy away most of the time, during which time he climbed one mountain after another in the political circles, but even forgot about his daughter's birthday.
And the bad news of Li Wuyu's unexpected death today, Li Fuhu had already learned about it in the afternoon, but he was still busy until ten o'clock in the evening, and it was too late.
Mu Lengxi was not close to his father because of this, but had some strange resistance.
What's more, she hides a secret and hides a truth.
She couldn't let anyone know that Li Wuyu was killed by the out-of-control Shi Xiaobai by mistake, and she couldn't let anyone know, including Mu Chaorong, especially Li Fuhu.
Li Fuhu and the Li family behind him will not let go of the murderer who killed the "prince", no matter whether the murderer is unintentional or innocent.
Because this is a matter of the face of the Li family and the majesty of the "royal family".
Li Fuhu walked towards the coffin step by step, his face expressionless, and he didn't look at his former wife and his biological daughter who had the same blood flowing.
Mu Chaorong didn't look up, staring at the sleeping Li Wuyu stupidly, and didn't hear Li Fuhu's approaching footsteps.
Mu Lengxi lowered his head slightly, his little hands couldn't help clenching, and he was very nervous.
Can she, can she hide it?
