The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Upon hearing Mu Qing's words, Nangong Yu not only didn't return to her original seat, but instead shrank back further into Nangong Li's room: "Third Brother, Uncle Mu won't hit me, will he? Those two old geezers did bad things, you can't blame me! I was forced into it! Third Brother, save me!"

Looking at Nangong Yu's face, which bore a striking resemblance to Ouyang Shan's (70%), and seeing her current fearful expression, Mu Qing patted the chair next to her: "Come sit down, don't worry. With a face like your mother's, I won't do anything to you. I want to discuss something with you!"

Nangong Li grabbed Nangong Yu from behind and pulled him in front of Mu Qing: "What are you afraid of? My uncle just wants to discuss something with you! You are you, and they are them! For your mother's sake, your uncle won't beat you! Look at your spineless appearance."

Nangong Yu was pulled out by Nangong Li and carefully moved back to her original seat: "Uncle Mu... what do you want to talk to me about? Those two beasts are locked up in the Heavenly Prison right now. If you're angry, go find them and vent your anger on them. Whether you beat them or kill them is up to you. I'm innocent!"

Mu Qing rolled her eyes at Nangong Yu: "Of course I know you're innocent. No matter what, you're Shan'er's bloodline. She won't abandon you!"

Of course I'll avenge myself on those two beasts! Tomorrow I'll petition His Majesty to personally oversee their execution! I just want to ask you, now that you have a mother, don't you want a father too?

Of the three present, only Nangong Yu stared wide-eyed at Mu Qing after hearing her words, while Nangong Li and Li Liuyun had expressions that said they had already guessed it!

Nangong Yu looked at Mu Qing: "Uncle Mu, say it again, I didn't quite hear you!"

Upon hearing Nangong Yu's words, Mu Qing stood up: "What I mean is, I'm going to marry your mother. Do you want to be my son? Also, I'm just informing you! I'm not asking for your opinion. Think it over yourself!"

And as long as your mother agrees, no one can object! Your mother and I were almost engaged back then, and after all these years, I never thought we'd meet again! If your mother and I had married back then, you would be my son! You wouldn't disagree, would you?

Upon hearing Mu Qing's words, Nangong Yu excitedly stood up: "I didn't say I objected! As long as my mother is willing, I wholeheartedly support her! But if she objects, no one can change her mind! I don't want to force her. After suffering so much, I only hope she can live a peaceful and happy life!"

"But if my mother agrees to marry you, can you guarantee you'll treat her well for the rest of your life and not mind her past? And what about Duke Mu and Lady Mu? Will they agree to you marrying my mother? You are a general guarding the frontier! And the heir of Duke Mu's mansion!"

Just as Mu Qing was about to speak after hearing Nangong Yu's words, three people walked in through the door.

The messenger came from Duke Mu, who declared in high spirits, "Our Duke's Mansion has never cared about the opinions of the world. We decide our children's marriages ourselves! The most important thing is that they love each other!"

Besides, we watched your mother grow up from childhood. If it weren't for that accident, your mother would have been the heir apparent of our Duke's mansion long ago!

If your mother is willing, my Mu family will definitely bring her into our family with a grand wedding ceremony! Child, are you willing to let your mother marry me, her son?

After your mother disappeared, he searched every mountain and wiped out all the bandits. He didn't sleep for three days and three nights!

He fainted, and after waking up, he fell seriously ill. After recovering, he volunteered to go to the frontier and took my place! He hasn't been home for over ten years! His mother and I both thought that he would only come back to break the basin for us on the day we died.

I desperately hope that Heaven has eyes, and that he has finally waited until now—your mother is still alive and well! Only as long as your mother is alive and well, can I, this unfilial son, live like a human being, all these years. He has always guarded the border, and every time the enemy attacks, he is always the first to charge. If it weren't for the fact that our bodies and hair are gifts from our parents!

He's probably already gone with your mother. The reason he chose to guard the border was because he was prepared to die. I know he wanted to see your mother as soon as possible. My child, considering his unwavering devotion to your mother all these years, are you willing to give him a chance?"

As soon as the group entered, Nangong Yu quickly stood up and offered them a chair!

After hearing what Duke Mu said, Nangong Yu nodded: "Duke Mu, I just spoke with Uncle Mu before you came. This matter is still up to my mother to decide. I cannot make the decision for my mother!"

Whatever choice my mother ultimately makes, I will respect her opinion. She is the only family member connected to me by blood! If she chooses Uncle Mu, as her son, I will definitely bless him. Of course, I will also prepare a dowry for my mother and send her off in style!

If my mother makes a different choice, I won't force her. After all, she has suffered for me for so many years. I respect her wishes. From now on, I just want her to live as she pleases and be happy!

My third sister-in-law said that my mother's eyes should be healed by tomorrow. My mother agreed to meet with Uncle Mu tomorrow. Let them handle their own affairs then!

I think Uncle Mu can ask my mother for her opinion himself. If my mother asks for my opinion, I will definitely give it my full support!

Since entering, the Duchess of Mu has not spoken, but her eyes are red as she looks at Mu Qing.

Upon seeing this, Mu Qing knelt down with a thud and performed a deep bow to Duke Mu and his wife: "Father! Mother! Qing'er is unfilial! I have failed to fulfill my filial duties to you both for so many years, I am truly unworthy of being a son! Please punish me, Father and Mother!"

With trembling hands, Duchess Mu helped Mu Qing up: "My son, do you know how I've managed all these years? I've been holding on to my last breath, hoping that one day you can let go of Shan'er, get married and have children, so that you won't be lonely when you're old!"

Mother is also afraid that if I leave, leaving your father alone, and if something happens to him, you will have no worries! Sooner or later you will follow Shan'er!

Thank goodness, Heaven has eyes! Shan'er is alive and well; she's back! Don't worry, even if I had to beg her on my knees, I would make her marry you! She is your life! And you are my life too!

Everyone present was deeply moved by the words of the Duchess of Mu!

Upon hearing his mother's words, Mu Qing could no longer hold back and burst into tears, embracing the Duchess of Mu. "Waaah... Mother! I'm sorry! It's all my fault! Please forgive my selfishness, but I really can't let go of this feeling in my heart!"

Every midnight awakening is agonizing for my son! That's why he thought of leaving home to guard the border! If he can protect our country and die on the battlefield, he can see Shan'er sooner and reunite with her.
