Xu Lin was completely stunned.

Don't know what to say at all.

Prince Ling knew that it was not appropriate for him to be present at such a scene of family reunion, so he quietly left.

Mu Qingyan didn't know how to face the sudden appearance of her relatives.

"I know it's hard for you to accept this fact. You've suffered a lot over the years. As your grandfather, I have never fulfilled my responsibilities as a grandfather. I am really ashamed of you... Although Xulin suffered hardships when he was a baby, he has been cared for by his master and never lacked food and clothing during the years since I took him home. Compared to you, he is much happier... Child, whether you are willing to recognize us or not, we will spare no effort to compensate you..."

Doctor Yan became more and more excited as he spoke.

Mu Qingyan smiled slightly, "Doctor Yan... No, Grandfather."

When Doctor Yan heard the word "grandfather", he was so happy!

"Hey!"

"You are already this old, what haven't you experienced? Why are you so unstable like a child? Aren't you making fun of yourself?"

Doctor Yan chuckled, after his wife and children passed away, although he had many disciples, he was still alone. Now that God has mercy on him, his children are still alive in the world. He can hear these two children calling him grandpa, which is truly the blessing of his life!

Mu Qingyan lowered her voice and said, "You are the leader of Xiaoyao Sect, so if I call you grandpa, wouldn't that make me the young master?"

She thought about it and shook her head again, "No, my brother is here..."

Xu Lin was finally able to say something, "As long as my sister likes it, whether she is a young master or not, I don't care!"

Mu Qingyan started to argue, "We were born together, how can you be sure that I am your younger sister? Maybe I was born before you, so I am your older sister!"

Xu Lin was speechless. He had never thought about this before. He just thought that he should be a brother and protect his sister from the wind and rain. It would have been fine if he didn't know it before, but now that he knows, he will never allow anyone to bully his sister again!

"As long as you're happy, it's fine for you to be my sister! But I will do my best to protect you! I won't let anyone bully you again!"

Mu Qingyan grinned.

"Have you met your aunt? If she saw you, I wonder how excited she would be..."

"It's fate. A year ago, I passed by Huaiyang during my travels and I examined her... Her pulse was very bad at the time, and she was hanging on by one breath. I don't know how she is now..."

But at that time, Madam Yuan was seriously ill, and her eyes were filled with the dejection of a dying person. He would never have thought that the woman in front of him was actually Xu Lin's aunt and nephew...

"So the miracle doctor my cousin mentioned is you! It's really a coincidence." After Mu Qingyan's surprise, her eyes quickly dimmed again, "She has been depressed all these years because of me. Now she has finally let go of her heart and is getting better. If she knew that my mother was murdered and someone wanted to kill her child, I wonder if she could bear it..."

Doctor Yan is a doctor, so he naturally knows that heart illness is difficult to cure.

Madam Yuan had a deep bond with her sister, and she has always lived in guilt for this. If she really knew that her sister died so tragically, she might not be able to bear it and fall ill again.

This is also the reason why, even though he knew that Madam Yuan was in the palace, he did not dare to take Xu Lin to pay a visit to her.

"It's necessary to know it eventually. Rather than letting her guess the truth, it's better to tell her the truth."

This is what Xulin said.

Doctor Yan and Mu Qingyan both thought it made sense.

But you can't rush it, you have to find the right time...

After the relatives recognized each other, Mu Qingyan went to Prince Ling's bedroom, wanting to ask him some questions.

Prince Ling seemed to have known that she would come. As soon as she came in, he poured the tea, which was still hot.

"sit……"

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

"Aren't you happy to recognize your grandfather and brother?"

Mu Qingyan picked up the tea and took a sip. "It's not that I'm unhappy, I'm just wondering how I can get away from the Duke's Mansion without damaging my mother's reputation..."

After all, in this era, losing virginity before marriage is not tolerated by the secular world. No matter why you lost your virginity, as long as you lost it, it was wrong. Every one of them can stand on the moral high ground to humiliate you, even your sisters, your family...

Even in the era when she lived in her previous life, there were always some people who would criticize a girl for her chastity.

Moreover, the Duke Fuguo's attitude towards her clearly showed that he knew she was not his daughter. But Lan Shi should not know this, otherwise, with her personality, she would have used this matter to control herself.

"This matter is a dead end. No matter how we declare it to the outside world, we will inevitably be suspected. I think if the Gu family knew about it, they would not want their daughter to bear the stigma of being unfaithful after her death..."

Mu Qingyan knew it, too. That's why she had a headache!

"Let's wait until the Gu family comes back to discuss everything... The mess in the court is enough to upset them. This battle was so fierce that my three uncles were seriously injured and almost died. My grandfather has been stationed at the border for many years and has been eroded by the northwest wind and sand. I'm afraid he has also been injured... At the border, they have to face the enemy's open and secret attacks, as well as the conspiracies and tricks from their own country... I can't imagine how they have been able to hold on for the past twenty years..."

The Northwest has been cold and bitter since ancient times. Even in later times, the geographical environment of the Northwest is considered relatively poor. In this era, it will only be worse.

"You don't blame them..."

Mu Qingyan shook her head. "I believe that if she knew that my grandfather's family had such a hard time, she wouldn't blame me..."

The Gu family is a loyal and brave family. Although Madam Yuan looks so weak, she has unyielding blood flowing in her body.

"Who is the she you are talking about?"

"Someone I must respect and who puts her family first..."

The original owner also had the blood of the Gu family flowing in her body. She believed that this girl was also very righteous and would not get entangled in her own grudges.

After all, in that dream, she heard the heart-wrenching pain after the entire Gu family was murdered, and it was not pretended.

Prince Ling looked at this face that was different from the rumors and had a completely different personality. He even had an absurd thought in his mind: the person in front of him might not be the real Mu Qingyan...

But if she is not, then where did the real Mu Qingyan go?

Prince Ling felt that his idea was not only absurd, but also ridiculous. Anyway, the person in front of him was his future princess, and there was no doubt about it. He shouldn't have such doubts in his heart...

"Have you sent anyone to repair and maintain the Gu Mansion?" When Yuan Ying asked her, she just remembered that she needed to hire a few people to take a look. However, when she arrived at the Gu Mansion, she found that someone was already cleaning it up.

Prince Ling admitted openly, "The Gu family is a family of meritorious service. We can't let the hero return without a place to stay, right? This is also a reward from the court to the meritorious officials. You don't have to take it to heart."

Mu Qingyan smiled softly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I won't be so self-indulgent as to think that Your Majesty did this for me."

Prince Ling was speechless for a moment. How could he mean that?
