The furnishings in Yunjie Garden are complete and all of them are exquisite.

The furniture is carved from the finest golden nanmu wood, and even places that are easily overlooked, such as the corners of the table and the feet of the bed, are engraved with different exquisite patterns, showing luxury and delicate beauty everywhere.

On the ten-foot-long table are placed the four treasures of the study with ancient charm, each of which has a history of nearly three or four hundred years.

Li Changan half-squinted his eyes and looked at them carefully, surprised that these antiques were preserved so well. Especially when he saw the "Jade Edition Xuan" with a knife as white as snow, he couldn't help but feel itchy to try it, but he couldn't bear to do it.

Looking at the row of bookshelves behind me, there are... Hmm? There is actually a complete set of "Wan Zi Yan"!

Li Changan was afraid that his eyesight was blurry, so he blinked a few times, looked into the distance, and then looked again. It was true! He rubbed his clothes with his hands excitedly, carefully took down the four complete volumes, and couldn't wait to read them.

It’s the original!

Seeing that his father's pupils had dilated and his breathing had quickened, Mu Yao hurried forward and asked with concern, "Dad, why don't you sit down and have some food first?"

Xie Ci was particularly thoughtful. Knowing that they had been tired from the long journey today, he arranged for dinner to be served to each of them in their own gardens.

When Li Changan heard his daughter calling him, he reluctantly put down the four treasures, as if there were gods living inside them and he was afraid that he would accidentally scare them all away.

After taking a sip of the wine, Li Changan looked around again. He felt that this room was specially prepared for him. He looked at Mu Yao with a curious look and said slowly, "Thank you, Master Guo, for being so polite. He has been taking care of you these days. Today, so many of us came to bother him again. It really troubled him. Yaoyao, Daddy is telling you, those books Daddy just read are priceless! Although they are not as valuable as the "Ode to the Sea and Mountains" that Han Qi gave me, they are also very important. Daddy will remember his friendship."

Mu Yao paused holding the wine jug, and said with a red face, "Dad, if you like it, just take it. These are all given to you by Ah Ci."

Ah Ci?

"Yaoyao, you and Xie Ci..." Li Taifu paused. Although he had a momentary guess in his mind, he quickly denied it. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!

Tutor Li's expression became complicated, with a mixture of joy and worry.

"Dad, do you have anything to say?" Mu Yao thought his father would be very happy, after all, Dayun and Beiming were allies. With Xie Ci's help, this relationship would be more stable.

"It's nothing. Dad just feels that the distance between you two seems a little far." Tutor Li replied.

In fact, he had something else in his heart that he hadn't said. He didn't want Mu Yao and Xie Ci to be involved in a marriage relationship.

Xie Ci's identity is very special, and his heart is always towards Bei Ming.

There are no eternal allies or eternal enemies in the world. If one day the new emperor of Beiming decides not to favor Dayun, how will Yaoyao and Xie Ci get along?

It seems that he cannot retire and go home to enjoy his old age. For the sake of his daughter, he has to keep this position. I wonder if the tonic pills Yaoyao gave me can extend my life to a hundred years? I have indeed felt much better after taking them these days.

Mu Yao was stunned. It turned out that her father was worried about this. She smiled and said, "Dad, I plan to open a branch in Xianshui. It won't be difficult to see you."

Imperial Tutor Li said angrily, "It's easy to say. Do you think getting married is an errand? Qingcheng and Helian Yun are both in the capital, and we can see each other every day. What about Xie Ci? He has a special status, and he can still come to our Dayun again and again? You will suffer when the time comes!"

It was unknown what stage the two had reached at the moment, but Li Changan always felt that it was inappropriate for Mu Yao to look for Xie Ci.

Hearing this, Mu Yao thought of Shen Chutang and Wei Wushang, whose base was in Nanyue, and her breath stagnated. She stood up, closed the door tightly, and sat down next to Li Changan on a chair.

Li Changan saw her mysterious look and didn't understand why, so he lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mu Yao rubbed her little hands buried under the tablecloth. There were some things she only dared to say in front of her father.

"Dad, do you know An Shang?" Mu Yao asked softly, staring at Li Changan without blinking.

As expected, Li Changan's face turned pale, and he trembled his beard twice and asked uncertainly: "Yaoyao, did you offend them?"

He felt that his heart disease was about to come back. Could she possibly mess with An Shang? The people there were even more cruel and vicious than the Bloodthirsty Pavilion, and they did things as they pleased, without any credibility at all.

Han Qi! It seems Yaoyao still has to rely on Han Qi. This son-in-law cannot be lost!

"Dad, don't worry, I didn't offend them. This time I was in trouble, and it was thanks to them that my daughter was able to escape danger."

Mu Yao's words shocked Li Changan. After a long time, he finally regained some clarity.

"An Shang saved you? Who?" Li Taifu's eyes suddenly became sharp. His daughter was still young, maybe she was deceived by some evil people's sweet words.

Mu Yao swallowed hard, as expected, An Shang was more lethal. She was a little worried about what to do if her father did not agree to these two marriages.

"Dad, the current Lord of Darkness is called Shen Chutang. I was lucky to meet him when I was wandering in the North Sea. He and I are already husband and wife, so my daughter must marry him."

"The last Lord of Darkness was Wei Wushang. My daughter was poisoned by Chunchan in the Beiming Palace last night. He saved me, and my daughter must marry him." Mu Yao told Li Changan the truth about the two people in one breath. She lowered her head, as if waiting for her father's scolding.

"Yaoyao, you were poisoned by the spring cicada? Who poisoned you? Why did you go to the Beiming Palace?" Li Changan was shocked. The spring cicada is a strong aphrodisiac that can only be detoxified in the most natural way. Why didn't I hear Xie Ci mention it just now!

"She was a noblewoman of the Si family, named Si Jialuo. But she is dead. The new emperor of Southern Xinjiang came yesterday, and I accompanied Ah Ci to the palace to attend the banquet as a family member of a court official." Mu Yao said calmly. The person has passed away, and the sins committed have also fallen into the underworld with the culprit.

"The new emperor of Southern Xinjiang?" Li Changan hadn't yet recovered from his previous shock when he was hit by another bolt of thunder.

"Nanjiang is located between Nanyue and Beiming. It is a small country but has a powerful army. If it were not for their poor geographical disadvantage, they would have risen long ago. The new emperor of Nanjiang has just ascended the throne. What is he doing in Beiming?" Li Changan asked sharply.

"The coalition forces are resisting the axe." Mu Yao replied.

Li Changan fell into deep thought. It seemed that Bei Ming was determined to defeat Nan Yue. It was very likely that some agreement had been reached with Nanjiang on the territorial issue. This was not a good thing for Dayun. Thinking of this, the wrinkles on his forehead deepened and hardened.

Seeing Li Changan's solemn expression, Mu Yao sensed his concerns and said, "Dad, you would never have thought that the new emperor of Southern Xinjiang is Han Qi. His real name is actually Ji Qi."

"What did you say?"

Li Changan was so shocked that he slammed the table and stood up, his chest heaving violently, and his eyes widened as big as copper bells.

After being struck by four bolts from the blue, he felt as if he was falling from the clouds, as if he was only one step away from ascending to heaven.

Li Changan clutched his chest with one hand and said through gritted teeth: "Yaoyao, if you have anything else to say, hurry up and say it all at once!" He was afraid that if he was late, he wouldn't be able to hear it.

Mu Yao had no medicine on her. Seeing her father's excited look, she quickly helped him sit down and poured him a cup of herbal tea.

"Dad, do you have the Qi-boosting pills I made for you with you?"

Li Changan drank a few sips of cold water, and his chest felt much better. He waved his hand, pulled Mu Yao over and said, "In other words, you now have four more husbands, right?"

Mu Yao was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she added, "Dad, Shen Chutang and Wei Wushang are from Nanyue. Shen Chutang's mother is the princess of Nanyue."

Then she thought for a moment, making sure she had explained everything.

"Hey!"

Li Changan sighed heavily and looked at Mu Yao in disbelief. What could he say? His daughter was going to unify Yunqi!

It’s a mess, everything is a mess!

No, he needs to sort it out carefully.

"Yaoyao, who else knows what you said?" Li Changan suddenly asked.

Mu Yao thought for a moment and replied, "Big Brother Xu knows about Xie Ci and I. Only you know the identities of Shen Chutang and Wei Wushang. But Big Brother Xu and I have discussed my marriage with them. As for Ji Qi's identity as the leader of the Bloodthirsty Pavilion, only you and Big Brother Xu know."

Li Changan nodded with satisfaction, stared at Mu Yao for a moment and said, "Ji Qi has already become the emperor, so there is no need to deliberately conceal your identity as the leader of the Bloodthirsty Pavilion. However, the identities of your two husbands from Anshang cannot be revealed for the time being."

"By the way, does Helian Yun still not know about it? Do you need your father to speak for you?" Li Changan asked.

Mu Yao shook her head. She would find an opportunity to confess to A Yun in the next two days.

"Arrange a time to bring those two to Dad." After saying that, he waved his hand and walked into the inner room. Compared with An Shang's two sons-in-law and Ji Qi, Li Changan suddenly found that Xie Ci was the one he was most satisfied with.
