The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy

Mu Yan glared at him: "Girl, you are really becoming more and more unruly. Why are you yelling so loudly?"

"Yan'er, guess what good things your cousin brought you."

A hearty voice was heard, and Mu Yan couldn't help but tremble, looking behind him in disbelief.

A man strode into the yard. He was wearing a black robe and his angular face was full of determination and courage. His skin color had become a little dark due to years of fighting, and his eyes contained an indescribable righteousness.

Mu Yan's eyes were moist. The face that suddenly appeared was so familiar...

"Hahaha, what's wrong? You can't speak when you see your cousin?" Han Jiuxiao smiled dotingly.

"cousin!"

Mu Yan tried to suppress the excitement in her heart, but tears still fell.

Han Jiuxiao was a young hero who had followed the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery in defending the border against foreign enemies for many years. He once rode his horse deep into the enemy's territory with a gun in hand and took the head of an enemy general. He had made countless military achievements.

But in the end, it was the ungrateful bastard Mo Xingchen who shed blood on Kunlun Mountain. Thinking of this, Mu Yan couldn't help but clench his fists.

"You're so grown up, yet you still cry when you see your cousin. Aren't you ashamed?" Han Jiuxiao clumsily wiped away the tears from Mu Yan's face, being very careful, fearing that his calloused hands would scratch her cheek.

Only after hearing Han Jiuxiao's teasing did Mu Yan come back to her senses from her memories.

Only then did I remember why my cousin was here. Some time ago, the years of war between the Yanyun Army and the Liao tribe ended, with the Yanyun Army defeating the Liao army and winning the victory, so my cousin and grandfather returned to the court.

Mu Yan excitedly looked behind Han Jiuxiao, looking for her grandfather.

Han Jiuxiao understood her thoughts and said, "Don't look. Your grandfather, uncle and aunt haven't come back yet. I came back at full speed this time to send a victory report to the emperor and to make arrangements for the Han family's house in the capital in advance."

Mu Yan nodded, lowered her head and chuckled, thinking that she was so anxious to see her relatives whom she hadn't seen for a long time that her mind was confused.

It was not a matter for just a few people for my grandfather to return to Beijing. Of the 300,000 troops of the Yanyun Army, 200,000 would generally be left with some generals to guard the border to prevent the Liao Army from invading again. Only the remaining 100,000 troops would follow my grandfather back to the capital.

"Yan'er, since you have guests here, I will go back first."

A gentle voice sounded, and only then did Han Jiuxiao realize the existence of Lin Shishi. When he saw the woman's face, he was stunned.

Mu Yan patted his head and said immediately: "I forgot to introduce it to you. This is..."

Before Mu Yan finished speaking, Han Jiuxiao rushed to say, "My name is Han Jiuxiao, with the courtesy name Daoqing. I am Yan'er's cousin and also a general of the imperial court. I am twenty-one this year and have not yet arranged a marriage."

As he said this, he clasped his hands together in greeting.

Cough cough, Mu Yan almost choked on the tea.

It's not that you introduce yourself, but who asks you if you have arranged a marriage?

And why is he showing off his official position?

Ling Yu and Shi Ying couldn't help but laugh when they heard this. They had seen how mighty Han Jiuxiao was in the army, but it was rare to see him behave so abnormally today.

Lin Shishi was terrified: "General Han, there is no need to be polite. I am Yan'er's friend, and my father is Lin Shilou, the president of the Hanlin Academy."

Han Jiuxiao coughed lightly and said seriously, "It turns out to be Miss Lin. I have heard of your name for a long time."

Lin Shishi couldn't help but chuckle.

A black line flashed across Mu Yan’s head.

What? What are you talking about?

Have you met Shishi before? You've heard of her for a long time, but you don't know how to talk to her?

Her cousin is good in every way. If you ask him to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, he will be the first to stand up. But he easily blushes when he sees girls. Fortunately, his blushing face cannot be seen by others, otherwise it would be really laughable.

"Yan'er, I'll go back home first." Lin Shishi said goodbye again.

"No, no, no, no, no need. Miss, you guys continue chatting. I'll give the almond cakes to Yan'er and then leave." Han Jiuxiao said quickly.

Mu Yan held her forehead with her hand. Why was her cousin stuttering when he spoke? It was so embarrassing.

"Cousin, why are you leaving so early? Why don't you and Shishi have lunch at the mansion before leaving?"

"No, Yan'er, I have to go take a look at the mansion that the emperor gave me first. I can't let the emperor down."

Mu Yan nodded and stopped forcing it.

"Then Shishi, just stay here and talk to me more."

Lin Shishi nodded, "Okay, then I'll stay here with you for a while."

Han Jiuxiao also said attentively at this time: "Try the almond cakes I just bought. They are still hot."

After Mu Yan handed the almond cake to Lin Shishi, she took one for herself and glanced at Han Jiuxiao.

Huh? Didn't you say you were leaving right away?

Why is my cousin still sitting here?

Unexpectedly, Han Jiuxiao secretly glanced at Lin Shishi, pursed his lips and said, "By the way, Miss Lin, I wonder..."

Mu Yan quietly pinched Han Jiuxiao's arm, signaling him to stop talking as it was too embarrassing.

You wouldn't want to ask someone if they have any marriage proposal the first time you meet them, would you?

"Ah! Yan'er, why are you pinching me?" Han Jiuxiao shouted, but he hadn't finished speaking yet!

Mu Yan rubbed his hands and really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
