After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

Mu Shan lived a leisurely life in Huangxian.

Hu Miaomiao and other officials in Huang County followed Mu Qing's management methods and were able to handle the affairs of Huang County properly.

Mu Shan often chats with the people of Huang County about family matters. No matter whether they are elderly people over 60 years old or young people in their 30s or 40s, Mu Qing can start a conversation.

Mu Shan's role in Huangxian is to go deep into the masses.

From the masses to the masses, Mushan’s bridge is very solid.

On their day off, Mu Shan and Old Man Li went fishing by the lake.

After passing the novice protection period, Mu Shan couldn't catch any big fish in a day, and it was common for him to catch nothing.

Mu Shan held the fish tank designed for him by Mu Qing in one hand and took the letter from the servant in the other.

This letter was written by Fan Huifu. He had been thinking that he had not received any letters from his good friends for a long time, so he planned to write a few letters to Shengjing.

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, Mu Shan's hand trembled and the position of the fishing rod moved a lot.

Mu Shan held the letter with a serious expression:

"Old Li, let's meet again some other day. I'm going to Anping. Let's go fishing by the lake when I come back."

"Go ahead, go ahead. You must be missing Master Mu. I haven't seen Master Mu for almost a year. I don't know how he is doing."

Mu Shan waved his hand perfunctorily and left without even taking the fishing rod.

What else can I do? This kid is about to climb up the ladder.

well!

When Mu Shan returned to the county government office, he first said goodbye to Hu Miaomiao and Liu Yun, and then hurriedly rode his horse to Anping Prefecture.

Mu Shan couldn't understand at this moment why Fan Huizhi fell in love with Qingger.

He remembered that it was Mu Qing who had always been in contact with Fan Huifu.

Could it be that the two of them fell in love with each other during this period?

No matter what, Mu Shan could not agree to this marriage.

Letters travel too slowly between the two counties.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.

Mu Shan was not sure whether Fan Huifu also wrote a letter to Mu Qing.

Some things are better said face to face.

Mu Shan rode at full speed and finally arrived at Anping Prefecture with the letter.

It has been more than half a year since I stepped into Anping again. Anping has changed even more than Huangxian, and the streets have been widened for a long time.

If he wasn't careful, it would be difficult for Mu Shan to find the way to the government office by memory.

There are many more gray buildings on the street.

Mu Shan found Mu Qing and took out the letter after taking a sip of water.

The two sat inside the house.

Mu Qing spread out the letter.

After reading Fan Huifu's letter, she was slightly surprised.

Most of the letters Fan Huifu sent to her were analyses of the world situation.

But I have never sent her such a letter.

Seeing the word "marriage" at this moment, Mu Qing couldn't help but be stunned.

When she reached the end, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Then, the air seemed to stagnate, and the flowing oxygen seemed to solidify in an instant.

The father and daughter just looked at each other.

Mu Shan also picked up the teacup and took a sip. His slightly trembling hands revealed his inner restlessness at the moment:

"What do you think? This engagement was something Huizhi and I talked about when we were drunk. We said we wanted to have a childhood marriage, but we never mentioned it again after that."

Fan Huifu mentioned his intention to get married in his letter to Mu Shan.

Mu Qing remained silent.

The fact that Mu Shan rushed to find him instead of making her own decision shows that the decision on this marriage is hers.

Mu Shan sighed on the side, while Mu Qing looked at the letter with complicated eyes. If she was a man and she and Fan Xi were in love, it would be understandable.

But in fact she is a woman, and Mu Qing's sexual orientation is normal.

You can't ask her to turn into a thermos cup on the spot.

Mu Qing remained silent for a long time. Mu Shan's heart was beating fast and he was extremely anxious.

Seeing that Mu Qing's attitude was unclear and he seemed to be considering it, he was worried that Mu Qing would agree to the marriage in a rush:

"Qing'er, listen to your father and reject this marriage. Although Fan Huifu and I have been friends for many years, you are a woman after all and cannot bring happiness to Fan Xi.

If you really like women in the future, we can talk about it later."

???

Mu Qing raised his head stiffly:

"Dad, did you misunderstand something?"

Her expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.

Ahem, she has been a straight woman for three lifetimes, not a lesbian.

Even if she had met Fan Xi and they were childhood sweethearts, there was no possibility for the two of them to be together. Besides, Mu Qing was extremely busy every day and had never considered finding a partner in the future.

Mu Qing was about to explain everything to Mu Shan, but the next second, she suddenly realized something.

It doesn’t matter whether she is gay or not. What matters is how Mu Shan discovered that she is not a boy.

"father……"

Now it was Mu Qing's turn to look at Mu Shan hesitantly.

"Dad, how did you find out...

I am a woman.”

Mu Qing carefully observed Mu Shan's expression.

From the beginning, only Liu Yun and the nanny knew about this matter.

Liu Yun concealed Mu Qing's gender in order to win favor.

Liu Yun and Mu Shan had never had a good relationship before, and Mu Qing was really afraid that the two of them would suddenly get divorced because of something they couldn't get over.

By the way, does her mother know that her father knows about this?

Mu Qing was nervous, even though she didn't plan to continue living as a man in the future.

But Mu Shan suddenly told Mu Qing that he already knew her gender, and Mu Qing was still frightened.

There is always an illusion that I have been caught doing something bad.

Mu Qing rubbed his hands and looked at Mu Shan with a forced smile.

This time, Mu Shan no longer took small sips of tea, but instead drank a cup of tea in big gulps.

He was born in a farming family, and the tea leaves tasted no different from water in his mouth.

Mu Shan drank several cups of tea before speaking silently:

"At first, Yunniang didn't tell the truth, so I didn't know it, but as time went by, I eventually discovered some clues."

He put down his teacup:

"Every time you were sick, Yunniang would call Doctor Zhang. After a while, I realized something was wrong. Don't worry. Yunniang told me about this later. No one else in the Mu family knew about it."

There were so many complaints that Mu Qing didn't know where to start.

It was agreed that the secret was known only to the three of them, but how come not only Li Min knew it, but Mu Shan knew it too.

There is no need to say much about Mu Qing's fellow disciples.

The senior brothers and sisters had already seen that she was a woman.

But it’s good that Mu Shan knew it. At least Mu Qing wouldn’t have to waste time explaining to Mu Shan in the future.

Although Mu Shan didn't like Liu Yun, he treated Mu Qing sincerely. He knew that Mu Qing was his daughter, but he still taught Mu Qing what he had learned.

As for the imperial examination, Mu Shan did not have any extravagant expectations. Only men could take part in it, and they had to undress for inspection before the exam to prevent smuggling.

This meant that Mu Qing was doomed to be unable to disguise herself as a man and pass the imperial examination.

And when they arrived in Huangxian from Shengjing, Mu Qing's actions to ensure the safety of the people further confirmed what the old Taoist said.

Mu Shan's attitude can be seen from the fact that he agreed to let Mu Shu enter Huang County as an official.

Mu Shan did not favor boys over girls, and his ideas were far ahead of that of the dynasty.

He didn't want Mu Qing to be bound by his status. This time, Mu Shan said this because he was worried that Mu Qing would agree to the marriage in a moment of impulse.
