The reborn paranoid male protagonist is crazy again

Chapter 77

Tomorrow night is the fundraising dinner, and almost all the dignitaries in the imperial capital have been sent invitations.No matter what they think in their hearts, the emperor and Zhong Jinping have to attend, and they must always give face to these two, especially the latter.

Reporters from the Imperial Media were also invited. This dinner will be spread through the Imperial Media, and human rights organizations will gain a firm foothold and increase their popularity and public voice.

And those who oppose this organization will definitely not be happy to see this dinner can be held smoothly.

Under the seemingly peaceful imperial capital, undercurrents are surging.

When Ellie left Nansanghua Villa, she happened to see a car coming in from the car window.

The license plate and logo on it...is the original home.

Ellie curled her lips, retracted her eyes and kept her eyes fixed.

The people from the Yuan family naturally recognized the car of the Nora family, and just when they were hesitant to say hello to the other party, the car disappeared with a whistling exhaust.

It seems impossible to avoid it.

People from the original family: "..."

Duke Hui is fine, after all, he has lived for decades and can still restrain his emotions.

Yuan Zhe's face distorted at a speed visible to the naked eye. The handsome and delicate face that was once popular in the empire became extremely haggard, and the thin facial features were a little out of shape. It is conceivable that life has not been good recently. .

He gritted his teeth even more hatefully, and stared fiercely at the direction the car was leaving.

"Enough, do you want to throw your face outside?" Duke Hui warned with a cold tone, wrinkling the deep wrinkles on his forehead and eyes.He was wearing a purple-black duke's crown and held a cane of the same color in his hand. He was old but still imposing.

"Yes, Father." Yuan Zhe withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to bury the resentment in his heart.

Duke Hui was on crutches, his chin was raised high, and the Duke's majesty and pride were vividly displayed. He walked into the villa under the guidance of the servant with his head held high.

Yuan Zhe followed behind without saying a word.

After the prince incident, coupled with the divorce turmoil, the vitality of the Yuan family was greatly damaged, but since Yuan Rourou moved into the Zhong family and Duke Hui began to have close contacts with the Zhong family, it seemed to have regained its former glory.

At least on the surface.

In reality, Yuanjia gritted his teeth and wanted to swallow blood and tears.

In any case, the status of the original family's great nobles must be maintained. As long as the status is not affected, the lost power and wealth will be recovered one day, and no matter how bad it is, they can be squeezed from the lower nobles.The law of the jungle survives the fittest, and the game of the superior is so cruel.

Now, in the eyes of all the nobles in the imperial capital, the Yuan family was completely abandoned by the royal family and took refuge in Zhong Jinping.The original family is the head of the three nobles, the once famous descendants, the most loyal supporters of the royal family, even such a family has betrayed the royal family, so what else can the royal family rely on?The families below acted on the wind, and either rushed directly to the broken ship of the royal family, or remained neutral and watched.

Without the family that supported them below, the royal family became increasingly isolated and weak.

That's why it is necessary to bind noble support through marriage.

Duke Hui walked in the spacious aisle without looking sideways, turning a blind eye to the exquisite murals on both sides, and various thoughts floated in his mind.

The Yuan family used to be a descendant family, and at its most glorious time, the three queens of three consecutive generations came from the Yuan family.Since the empire promulgated the law prohibiting intermarriage within three generations of blood relationship, the status of the descendants of the original family has been greatly affected.Crown Prince Solonga's biological mother is the younger sister of Duke Hui, the former queen of the empire.With this level of blood relationship, it is impossible for the next generation of queens to be girls from the original family.

So Duke Hui arranged for Yuan Rourou to marry the Gu family, who was also one of the three nobles, and the marriage contract was finalized when Yuan Rourou was three years old.In the end, Yuan Rourou was taken by Zhong Jinping, and the Gu family offended the royal family again and lost...

The strength of the Yuan family is far inferior to that of Zhong Jinping. Zhong Jinping has expanded wildly over the years, and his ambitions are so blatant.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the decision to abandon the royal family and tie up the big ship of the Zhong family.

Now they have completely turned against the royal family. The Yuan family originally made their fortune by clinging to the superiors. In terms of strength and confidence, even the now defeated Gu family can't compare.

There is no difference between relying on the royal family and relying on the Zhong family.

Although the current crown prince has half of the blood of the original family, his daughter Yuan Rourou might not give birth to the future master of the Zhong family.

Duke Hui suppressed the deep unwillingness hidden in his heart, and tried hard to convince himself.

Seeing Zhong Jinping, the respect and flattery on Duke Hui's face became a little sincere.

Duke Hui bowed slightly and saluted the man sitting behind the desk: "Patriarch."

Yuan Zhe twitched his brows vigorously, and saluted with indescribable shame under his father's cold gaze.

As the Duke of the Empire, the head of the original family whose title was only lower than the emperor and the prince, saluted a man who was several years younger than his eldest son. Even if he just bowed slightly and nodded, his status was extremely low.

What's more, his title is "Patriarch".

However, putting one's own identity under Zhong Jingping's meant subordination.

Zhong Jinping, who was sitting behind the desk, laughed in a low voice, his hoarse voice was full of joy, and his slender fingers in white gloves casually tapped on the table top.

His sitting posture is not dignified, with long legs crossed, leaning on the back of the chair, with one hand propping his chin, but he reveals a lazy and luxurious atmosphere, and the smile on his face hides the stern and cold eyes.

He looked like an elegant and harmless noble young master.

But it's just like.

If you meet his red eyes with narrow and sharp arcs at the end of the eyes, even if you don't get angry or show murderous intent, you will still have an inexplicable fear of cold feet and back.

Compared with the Yuan family's strict and elegant every movement as if measured, his gestures are innately luxurious and arrogant, and he also has the aura of life and death in his hands.

Satisfied with Duke Hui's attitude, Zhong Jinping didn't talk nonsense: "Let's talk."

......................................................

When he came out of the study where Zhong Jinping worked temporarily, Yuan Zhe finally couldn't help the humiliation and dissatisfaction on his face.

"My lord father, you are the Duke of the Empire, why are you so humbled to Zhong Jinping? And return... such an important thing to him!"

At any rate, he knew that this was the territory of the Zhong family, and there was a servant leading the way in front of him. Yuan Zhe didn't dare to make it loud, and vented his dissatisfaction with a voice that only two people could hear.

Duke Hui lives on crutches, and walks unhurriedly. He still has the air of a duke, and he doesn't stop talking, "You should be called the head of the family."

Yuan Zhe's face was extremely ugly, it was so dark that water could be squeezed out.

Calling Zhong Jinping the head of the family, surrendering and looking up to him is like stepping on his dignity and pride, and his self-esteem is like a cracked wall shattered and peeled off piece by piece.

Yuan Zhe used to be a man of the imperial capital, noble in appearance, handsome in appearance, gentle and elegant, with extraordinary abilities, he is the proud son of heaven.I also enjoyed a period of glorious days when the imperial media chased and flattered me. Who doesn't like the high-spirited young and promising imperial dignitaries who have grown a handsome and beautiful skin?

But within a few years, Zhong Jinping, who was also born in one of the three nobles, overwhelmed him.The imperial media chased after the sycophant and replaced it with Zhong Jinping.

The man known as the devil of the empire also possessed terrifying scheming methods.His strength is outstanding, but in just a few years, he has climbed to an unprecedented height, holding a lot of power in his hands, and taking life and death.

Yuan Zhe, on the other hand, is still the "eldest son of the duke" in the impression of the outside world. His status and honor all come from the status of "the eldest son of the duke", and has nothing to do with him.

Yuan Zhe used to look down on Zhong Jinping extremely, and suffered humiliation in Zhong's family because he was not favored or valued. He laughed at Zhong Jinping more than once.

【Your father would rather hand over the title of duke to an illegitimate fool than hand it over to you. What a useless and ridiculous waste. 】

He even maliciously speculated about his relationship with the former emperor.

After Zhong Jinping was able to control the Zhong family and the military headquarters, he climbed to today's heights, thanks to the previous emperor who loved him a lot.

If Zhong Jinping hadn't looked so similar to his father, people at that time would have guessed whether Zhong Jinping was the emperor's illegitimate son.

If there is no blood relationship, then guess all kinds of unsightly malicious thoughts.But it was just a guess, and no one dared to speak out, because those who dared to publicly maliciously speculate, insult and ridicule were either killed by the previous emperor, or half-dead by Zhong Jinping.

Yuan Zhe despises and despises Zhong Jinping. Even after Zhong Jinping gained power, he did not change his attitude.

Because Zhong Jinping is madly infatuated with his sister Yuan Rourou, Ai Wu Ji Wu, his attitude towards the Yuan family can be called tolerant.This preferential treatment made Yuan Zhe even more inflated in private.

Everyone is afraid of Zhong Jinping, but he is not afraid, and even dares to accuse and insult Zhong Jinping face to face.

Yuan Zhe was intoxicated by his arrogance and courage, and he had a sense of intoxication that everyone was intoxicated and the only one was awake.

You are all afraid of him, fear him, taboo him, but I despise him.

I don't know if the other party thinks he is a clown and is lazy to talk to him.

Even though Zhong Jinping is now in a high position and powerful, even the emperor and his father, Duke Hui, have to smile and be modest.Yuan Zhe still maintains a strong self-confidence and arrogance in his heart, always looking down on Zhong Jinping from a high position.

He hides this mentality very well, including his beloved sister Rou Rou, no one knows, except his wife... Oh, now it's his ex-wife who accidentally noticed it and laughed at him sarcastically.

Thinking of this, Yuan Zhe couldn't help but think back to Ellie whom he met at the gate of the villa just now. The other party's indifferent attitude without even looking at him made him even more aggrieved and angry.

If this kind of mean, inconsiderate, gentle, and understanding woman was not born in the Nora family, she would not be qualified to be his wife at all!
Yuan Zhe's mind was in a mess, all kinds of messy thoughts piled up together, his emotions were intense, his chest heaved up and down, and he clenched his fists involuntarily.

"Why should he!" Yuan Zhe gritted his teeth angrily, and finally couldn't help blurting out, the unwillingness and humiliation on his face almost overflowed.

Duke Hui's footsteps paused for a while, but he recovered quickly. He turned his head and glanced at the resentful and unwilling eldest son, "I brought you here to let you know the current situation of the original family, not to listen to your useless venting. Ridiculous emotion. Why? Huh."

Duke Hui sneered twice, stopped, and looked at the middle-aged eldest son.

It's not that the son below is useless like a waste, he has already abolished the status of the eldest son heir.

"Because you are an incompetent idiot!" The wrinkles on Duke Hui's face trembled with anger. He clung to his crutches forcefully, with a cold tone, "Because our family doesn't have a Zhong Jinping! So we can only rely on the Zhong family!"

Doesn't he feel humiliated?Doesn't he feel embarrassed to submit to a young man who is a few years younger than his eldest son?

The Yuan family... The recent events that happened one after another made Duke Hui completely disappointed with the sons below, and he also noticed his growing old, tired and weak.The next generation of the family are useless waste, they will only hide under the protection of the family wings and enjoy the luxury of the nobles, once they leave the protection, they are nothing.The only eldest grandson Yuanan who can do it is now Anola.

At least the Gu family still has successors, and it may not be impossible to return to the top.

But the original family...

Duke Hui suppressed the long sigh that came out of his chest, with an old and gloomy face.

Zhong Jinping's power is like a broken bamboo, and the royal family is weak and unreliable. If he doesn't join the Zhong family, he will be torn apart by Zhong Jinping sooner or later.

This is the best choice for Yuanjia.

"Father?!"

Yuan Zhe's eyes widened, the shame in his eyes was unbelievable, and the few remaining self-esteem cracked and shattered to the ground.

Duke Hui regretted bringing the eldest son here. There is no cure for the rotten wood mud: "While I still have a few years left, you should marry a wife and have children as soon as possible. The hope of the original family is in the third generation! You only have this role!"

Yuan Zhe's body shook a few times, almost unable to stand still, as if he had suffered some serious blow.

He has always regarded himself as an excellent heir, an outstanding future Duke, and he believes that he has outstanding abilities, even if he is not as good as Zhong Jinping, he is not far behind.

In his father's eyes, he actually only had the role of carrying on the family line?
After finishing speaking, Duke Hui continued to walk forward on crutches, ignoring the pale and deeply shocked eldest son.

The servant who led the way always kept a proper smile on his face, without any other expressions, and he didn't seem to have heard the dispute between the father and son.

After Duke Hui and Yuan Zhe left the study, Mo Jue walked in.

Mo Jue, half of his body hidden in the shadows, stood upright, "Patriarch, everything has been arranged. As you expected, the royal family is still in contact with the Gester Empire, and even helped the other party arrange people to enter the military headquarters. Six families were also involved."

Even Mo Jue, who has always been calm and composed, couldn't control the veins on his forehead and back of his hands when he reported the information again.

The Gust Empire, their enemy for generations, was originally just a small, backward and dilapidated country. In the past few years, it has expanded wildly and annexed the surrounding small countries, and then began to try to infiltrate and invade the empire.

Is the sworn enemy of the empire.

Countless soldiers buried their corpses in the wilderness in order to defend the empire in bloody battles.But the royal family did not hesitate to collude with enemies for the so-called eradication of dissidents.

The high-level aristocratic regime of the empire is corrupt, and the entire empire is already riddled with holes and exhausted.If it weren't for the main force of the family to turn the tide, those royal families and nobles would still be able to enjoy the extravagant, lustful and drunken life like today?

It appears that the death of Prince Fenner was not enough of a lesson for the royal family.

There is no point in the existence of such a stupid royal family and corrupt nobles.
