The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Nangong Yu nodded and quickly followed.

Mu Qing bowed to the Duchess of Anguo and said, "Uncle, Aunt, there are still some matters I need to consult with Brother Ouyang. I will visit you another day to pay my respects!"

Duke Anguo and his wife nodded, and the wife's eyes were full of heartache: "Now that you're back, please visit our residence more often!"

"Yes! Mu Qing understands!" After saying that, Mu Qing bowed to the two of them and turned to walk towards Nangong Li's study.

Nangong Li led Ouyang Jing and Nangong Yu to the study, where Qingyang served tea.

Ouyang Jing suddenly spoke up: "Your Highness, please speak frankly! Today, the Crown Princess saved my mother. If Your Highness ever needs anything in the future, the Duke of Anguo's mansion will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Nangong Li shook her head: "I have no requests of the Duke of Anguo's mansion. The reason I summoned the young master is because I have news about my other sister that I wish to inform you of."

"I was also worried that the Duchess and Duke, being of advanced age, might not be able to handle the shock, so I thought I'd inform the Heir Apparent first, so that you'd be mentally prepared when the truth comes out! And also, I wanted to see your and your family's attitude."

Upon hearing news of his sister, the heir of the Duke of Anguo stood up excitedly: "May I ask Your Highness, where did you get this news of my sister? I do not know if she is dead or alive, or where she is now. Please tell me about my sister!"

I am willing to offer half of my family fortune as a token of my gratitude! My parents have been blaming themselves for not being able to protect my sister all these years. In just over a month, my parents' hair turned white!

My wife also blames herself for not taking good care of her younger sister. After the accident, my mother cried every day until she almost went blind! As her older brother, I also feel guilty for not going with her back then.

"Please, Your Highness, tell me where my sister is now? She has suffered so much all these years; I want to bring her home as soon as possible!"

Nangong Li looked at Nangong Yu: "Should you say it or should I?"

Nangong Yu shook his head: "Third brother, you should tell them. I really can't bring myself to say what those two did, especially since one of them is a beast, and he's my own father!"

Ouyang Jing was startled by Nangong Yu's words. This person called the Crown Prince his third brother—could he be the current Emperor's fifth son, Nangong Yu?! But according to news from the palace, Nangong Yu wasn't supposed to be of the Emperor's blood. Then why did he look so much like his sister…?

Nangong Li nodded: "You must have heard about what happened in the palace today. We only managed to save the princess by chance. She is still alive, but her condition is not very good."

Upon hearing Nangong Li's words, Ouyang Jing's veins bulged with rage: "Does Your Highness mean that my sister has been hidden in the palace all along?"

Nangong Li nodded and looked at Nangong Yu standing to his side: "This is the Fifth Prince Nangong Yu, but his biological mother is not Consort De, but your sister Ouyang Shan."

Then, Nangong Li recounted how Consort De had tricked Ouyang Shan and tricked her into returning to the palace to have her bear a child.

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Jing's eyes turned bloodshot and his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, drawing blood to the ground: "Consort De, how dare she?"

At this moment, Mu Qing walked in: "His Highness the Crown Prince has probably already told you what happened. Brother Ouyang, what are your plans next?"

Ouyang Jing looked up at Mu Qing: "She is the princess of my Ouyang family and Ouyang Jing's sister. Of course, she should be brought back to our Ouyang family!"

Mu Qing looked up at Ouyang Jing with a serious expression: "If it weren't for what happened back then, Shan'er and I would probably have gotten married long ago."

Now that Shan'er is still alive, I want to fulfill our marriage vows from back then and marry her! I just don't know if Shan'er would be willing to marry me! And what about my uncle and aunt? I wonder if they would agree?

After hearing Mu Qing's words, Ouyang Jing stood up and patted Mu Qing on the shoulder: "Good lad, I wasn't wrong about you. But with Shan'er in this situation, you two are destined to be apart. You should let it go as soon as possible!"

"After all, your Mu family, as the Empress's maternal family, is under constant scrutiny. Given Shan'er's past, she's no longer suitable to marry into your family! Our Ouyang family can still support her and her child."

When Nangong Yu heard Ouyang Jing say this, her eyes lit up: Ouyang Jing said he could support her and her son, does that mean he acknowledged his identity?

Nangong Yu tugged at Nangong Li's sleeve and whispered, "Third Brother, Prince Ouyang said he would take care of my child and me. Does that mean he doesn't dislike me?"

Nangong Li looked at Nangong Yu, his expression shifting from initial caution to one of pure delight.

Nangong Li said irritably, "If you want to know, why don't you just ask yourself?"

Nangong Yu lowered his head and spoke even softer: "After all, I am that beast. He forced my mother to give birth to me. Half of my blood is his!"

My mother suffered so much because of me, it's understandable that they hate me! I dare not ask anything else, as long as they acknowledge my mother and treat her well, that's enough!

Although Nangong Yu's voice was soft, both Mu Qing and Ouyang Jing came from military families, had practiced martial arts since childhood, and were generals who had distinguished themselves on the battlefield, so their internal strength was naturally profound. Their hearing was also different from that of ordinary people, so they could hear Nangong Yu's words clearly.

Nangong Li looked at Ouyang Jing: "Young Master Ouyang, before today, Nangong Yu did not know that his mother was someone else. Moreover, the princess liked him very much. The princess once begged me and Yun'er to let him go! She was willing to pay with her life, which shows his status in the princess's heart!"

If the Ouyang family cannot accept his existence, it doesn't matter. They can simply claim to the outside world that the princess has lost her memory and has been wandering outside for many years, and that she has been found today!

Moreover, when the princess was rescued, no one had seen her face, and everyone in Consort De's palace had been killed. Not many people knew about this!

"Besides the people I have, it's all his people! He's my younger brother, Nangong Li. I've already pleaded with my father and mother to have him adopted into my mother's family! This has nothing to do with your Ouyang family."

Ouyang Jing was also shocked when he heard Nangong Li's words. He did not expect that the Crown Prince would actually ask the Emperor and the Empress to register such a person who had no blood relation under the Empress's name for Nangong Yu!

Nangong Li seemed to see through Nangong Jing's doubts: "After the princess gave birth to him, Consort De took him away from the princess and then used him to plot to seize the throne!"

Over the years, he has suffered endless torment at the hands of Consort De, but he has never done anything to harm the Northern Li kingdom. Moreover, today he originally intended to perish together with Consort De and that beast!

I knew his intentions beforehand, which dissuaded him from his plan! He is kind-hearted by nature, and I think it's thanks to the princess that he has half her blood. Like the princess, he is sincere and kind! If you don't acknowledge him, and can't extend your love to him, please don't harm him!
