Mu Nanping's face was as cold as ice, and he was a little angry, "This boy! How could the Jiang family raise such a rebellious son!"
He even managed to kill his own sister.
Mu Qingyan quickly calmed him down, "Daddy, don't be angry. It involves Jiang Lan's reputation. Daddy must not be impulsive." Otherwise, her and Bailijin's efforts will be in vain.
Originally, this lie was full of flaws. Jiang Ye was able to deceive him only because he felt guilty and dared not speak out. If something strange suddenly happened, everyone would know everything.
Mu Nanping's tone was slightly colder, "I don't have that much free time to take care of it. It's hard for him to do such a scandal."
Jiang Xingsheng and Jiang Xingge are his nephew and niece. These two are related to him, but Jiang Ye is also a concubine of the Prime Minister's Palace, which is really embarrassing.
If Jiang Ye were his son, he would have to be crippled even if he didn't die. No, it should be lucky that he didn't have such a son.
"My cousin and cousin don't know about this, I didn't tell them."
Mu Nanping nodded, "You are right to do this." For the sake of Jiang Lan's reputation, this matter must not be leaked. The fewer people know about it, the better.
"If you can meet Jiang Lan, find an opportunity to remind her." His eyes darkened slightly, as if Jiang Ye had bad intentions, it would be best for Yan'er to stay away from him.
"Daughter, I know." Mu Qingyan nodded, recalling Jiang Lan's pretty face. She was a pretty good girl. At least she didn't go astray. For her aunt's sake, she would give her a hand. As for what happens in the future.
It's up to her.
Mu Qingyan leaned on Mu Nanping's shoulder, feeling a little emotional in her heart. How many years had she not been so close to her father?
Her father often hugged her when she was little, and he was the one who doted on her and treasured her the most. Others said that her father was a military commander, but he was always gentle when facing her, just like his grandfather.
Grandpa's temper may seem weird to others and difficult to take care of. In fact, Grandpa also loves her very much and is still very considerate of the slaves in his courtyard.
So she is really lucky. Her family pampers her and pampers her, so she is so unreasonable and takes their love as a trump card to marry Baili Qi, putting them in a dilemma again and again. Now think about it.
Really unfilial.
Mu Nanping was startled by her sudden intimacy, and then smiled. Yan'er had really changed a lot, and she had indeed grown up and become more sensible.
He patted Mu Qingyan's hand, and his thoughts gradually drifted away, returning to his youth, when Rou'er was pregnant with their first child, Xuan'er.
——
Leaning like this, Mu Qingyan felt extremely satisfied and safe, so she slowly closed her eyes.
I don't know how long it took, but Mu Qingyan was woken up by a loud noise.
Mu Nanping noticed it the moment she opened her eyes, and gently dragged her neck with his hand, "Are you awake?"
Mu Qingyan nodded and looked at her old father holding her hand. She grinned, "Is it time?"
"Let's go, everyone is waiting for you." Mu Nanping lifted the car curtain.
Mu Qingyan looked up and was surprised. She was at the gate of the palace. She had slept for so long and woke up at the door of her own house.
Wait a moment, "Bai, where is the prince??"
"The Holy One has sent someone to take you back to the East Palace to recuperate. I heard you were asleep and didn't call you."
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips and nodded, sighing in her heart. She was probably going to summon her soon.
Mu Nanping got off the carriage. He was not at all like a father of two children. He was a martial arts practitioner after all.
"Come down, daddy will help you." Mu Nanping turned around and stretched out his hand to her, not caring about the surprised looks of the people around him.
Shangguan Rou stood behind him with a worried look on his face.
Mu Qingyan stretched out her hand without any hesitation. Unexpectedly, Mu Nanping didn't pull her wrist. Instead, he held her arm like a child and hugged her down.
The latter was startled, thinking that her father would be gossiped about, but she soon felt relieved. After all, it was her own father, and the person who loved her the most was not the Prime Minister.
As soon as her feet landed on the ground, Guan Rou hurried over. With red eyes, she took Mu Qingyan's arm and looked up and down. When she saw her bandaged hands, she almost burst into tears.
Mu Qingyan quickly comforted her: "Mom, I'm fine. It's just a scratch on my skin. I'm fine."
She was specially dressed up today, and her face looked very good. Although she had been riding in the carriage for so long, she fell asleep, and she slept soundly, so she didn't feel tired anymore.
"Why is it okay? You must have suffered a lot after being missing for two days. You have lost weight." Shangguan Rou glared at her, then touched her face distressedly.
Mu Qingyan comforted her softly: "Then you have to make me something delicious to make up for it! I want to eat antique soup."
she says.
Shangguan Rou was angry: "What kind of antique soup do you want to eat on a hot day? I can just cook you a fish when I go back."
Shangguan Rou knew very well that her daughter was still recovering from her injuries and could not eat food that was too exciting. She was reluctant to give it to her. When she recovered, she would still do it.
"Okay, you have the final say." Mu Qingyan's eyes were full of happiness. She really felt homesick after staying in Linggu Temple for so long. This time it was really a disaster!
Third aunt Chu Jing was also there, and came over at this time, "Miss, you have suffered."
"Auntie." Mu Qingyan smiled at her, then stared at Mu You next to Chu Jing, "Xiaoyou, did you obey me when I was not at home?"
Mu You originally wanted to run over and hug her third sister, but her mother held her back. She could only show a big smile to Mu Qingyan and said, "You'er has always listened to my aunt and mother."
"So good." Mu Qingyan gave her a big thumbs up gesture, although the gesture was a bit ugly.
"Go in first and let her have a good rest." Mu Nanping said.
"Come on, let's go in. Mom has made your favorite snacks for you in advance." Shangguan Rou carefully pulled her towards the palace.
The door was closed, blocking out curious sight from outside.
"I heard that Miss Mu Da disappeared in Linggu Temple." I don't know who said this.
Suddenly, other eyes fell on the man who made the noise.
"Really? I heard that too. I also heard that His Highness the Crown Prince was seriously injured trying to save Miss Mu."
"I just saw His Highness the Crown Prince. His arm is indeed injured. It seems to be quite serious. In comparison, Miss Mu is much better."
"His Royal Highness must have protected Miss Mu!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so affectionate and loyal to Miss Mu! Miss Mu's life is so good!"
"Just be envious, I have the entire Mu family to back me up."
