Chapter 631 [Bonus chapter]Tu Family (2)
”Nan?” Nan Luo noticed Nan Hua’s gaze and his eyes showed surprise. “They’re from Mu Family. I thought that the Mu Family didn’t stay in the Capital City.”
”Some of them still stay here.” Feng Ao Kuai didn’t seem to care that much about Mu Family. He didn’t have much interaction with the Mu Family and even if there was, it was only occasionally.
He knew that General Mu spent his time at the battlefield along with some of his family members who followed him. But the rest of the Mu Family members were staying in the Capital City because they have some business here.
The Mu Family had a lot of people in their family. Aside from those who were directly related to General Mu, there were also his distant cousins who were also developing in the Capital City.
Altogether, there were dozens of people in the Mu Family.
”I see.” Nan Luo was not that interested either.
Only Nan Hua passed a second look discreetly towards the Mu Family. Mu Fei Jiu was not here today, but she could guess that these people were all related to her. The Mu Family was going downhill because of General Mu’s condition and the fact that he would not be able to return to the battlefield.
This affected his other family members, who were Mu Fei Jiu’s uncles and relatives.
And this was also the reason why the original Mu Fei Jiu dared to go against them. They had lost their backing just like she had lost hers. No one would be able to cover them anymore and the things they had done in the past was estimated to be brought to the surface.
At that time, the entire Mu Family would fall.
It was indeed the best chance for her to make a move and made them suffer after their treatment to Mu Fei Jiu’s family.
Now that things had changed, how would Mu Fei Jiu did it?
Mu Fei Jiu hadn’t lost her sister and father, but it would never erase the past when she was mistreated by her family members. Considering Mu Fei Jiu’s personality, would she be so kind to let them off?
She’s not a saint.
Even if she put on a smile on her face all the time, Mu Fei Jiu’s heart was filled with pain and heartache.
She wanted to protect her father and older sister through her own methods.
But it was also precisely because Mu Fei Jiu still has her father and sister that it would be impossible for her to bet everything on the line like she was supposed to do in the original story.
In fact, Nan Hua herself didn’t know how Mu Fei Jiu obtained the information and passed them to the Emperor in the original story.
The story is following Long Qian Xing’s perspective.
And he didn’t seem to know anything in regards to this matter.
Thus, Nan Hua also had no clue.
Nan Hua felt that she had to have a talk with that young girl soon. There should be some kind of venue where she would be able to meet with Mu Fei Jiu and talked about this in the future.
”Let’s go inside.” Feng Ao Kuai paused for a moment then added, “Nan, you too.”
”Yes.”
The four of them entered and Feng Ao Kuai passed a look at Nan Luo. “How much do you know about Tu Family?”
”Huh?”
Nan Luo was stunned by that question. Because he had been helping his grandfather little by little, he naturally knew a lot about Tu Family. After all, Tu Family’s hatred towards his mother’s family was apparent.
However, he came to realization that Feng Ao Kuai wished for him to put Nan Hua into this matter. Nan Hua was no longer a child and even when she was younger, Nan Hua had been more capable than him.
How could he possibly hide this matter forever?
Nan Luo knew that his grandfather also wished for Nan Hua to begin getting involved as their preparation had started to take shape. Even if Nan Hua added some of her involvement, the overall situation of Fei Yang Kingdom would be able to stay stable.
”Not much but enough to know about their overall structure.” Nan Luo scratched his head. “I’m not going to go into the detail, but I know that they have some position in the palace. Their ranks are about the same as Nan Shu Cheng or a bit lower. However, they’re in Works Department.*
As you know, the work department didn’t really have much effect on war and so on. However, they’re important to sustain the lives of the people. With a lot of importance put into war, the Ministry of Work didn’t really have much supervision and some people are like Tu Family, relying on their connection to keep on rising.
Even at this moment, there are a lot of people like them. At the same time, they couldn’t just be dismissed because it will affect the workflow in overall. Even if many of them didn’t work so well, they are still familiar with the works and needed to control the overall balance while the kingdom is focusing on war.”
