The moment Mu Nanjin saw the governor, a light flashed in his eyes.
Mu Qinyi noticed her gaze, slowly put down the wet towel in his hand, turned around and blocked Mu Nanjin's sight.
[Uncle, you are blocking my view of men. ]
The governor looked at Mu Qinyi, who looked very imposing, and felt even more surprised than when he heard that Mu Nanjin was sick.
He had learned about Mu Nanjin's affairs and knew that Mu Nanjin's uncle was a son-in-law who married into the Tang family and a small constable in the Six Gates. Logically, such a person was just an ordinary person. But the man in front of him didn't have the delicate and picturesque appearance of Feng Sinan, but he was also cold and handsome, and the powerful aura he exuded could crush everyone.
"Are you the governor of the Duwei Mansion?" Mu Qinyi said in a calm voice, "I've heard a lot about you."
The governor frowned slightly, as the other party seemed to be hostile to him.
"We heard that Mu Nanjin was ill, so we came to see him."
"The governor really cares about Nan Nan. He came to visit her as soon as he heard that she was ill. This is something that not many high-ranking officials can do. Unfortunately, Nan Nan is still ill and cannot entertain you. I can only invite you to be my guest next time."
As soon as the governor heard it, he knew that the other party was trying to drive them away.
They were not so thick-skinned to stay any longer: "No need to be so polite, we just want to make sure that Mu Nanjin's illness is not serious and we can feel relieved."
"She just has a fever, it's not serious, thank you for your concern."
The governor nodded and said to Mu Nanjin behind Mu Qinyi, "Mu Nanjin, have a good rest. We will go back first."
[Eh, you just left like that? You just left me like that? ]
[You said you came to see me, but are you sure you saw me? ]
[If you want to leave, you have to feed me medicine before you leave. I have never tasted medicine fed to me by the governor himself.]
Mu Nanjin kept him there: "Commander-in-chief, please have lunch before leaving."
"No, we still have a lot of things to do. When you get better, we will invite you to the restaurant for dinner."
The governor could tell from her active voice that the person was only slightly ill and there was no need for them to stay any longer.
[I don't want to face my uncle alone, so please stay a little longer.]
The governor raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Mu Nanjin also had someone he was afraid of.
Mu Qinyi said to Xu Bo outside: "Xu Bo, please help me escort the governor and others out."
"Yes." The butler saw the governor and his men off.
Mu Qinyi turned around, picked up the wet towel he had just thrown away, dipped it in cold water, and then replaced the white towel on Mu Nanjin's forehead.
"Nannan, do you still like Tang Jingrui?"
"dislike."
In order to prevent Mu Qin from thinking that he was forcing her and Tang Jingrui together, Mu Nanjin had to answer him honestly.
Mu Qinyi seemed to have expected that she would not like Tang Jingrui sooner or later and was not surprised at all.
"He's not worthy of you. You're right to no longer like him. Do you have someone you like now?"
He asked casually, but Mu Nanjin felt there was danger in his words.
She answered subconsciously: "No."
Mu Qin nodded with satisfaction: "You should have a good rest. When you are well, we will have a good chat."
Mu Nanjin didn't want to say more and make more mistakes, so she just listened to him and closed her eyes.
Mu Qinyi stayed in her room to take care of her for a day before returning to the Tang family.
Tang Wenzong and Tang Jingrui had been waiting at the Tang family for a long time. When they saw Mu Qinyi coming back, they immediately stood up and said, "Ayi, I have something to tell you. Come with me."
Mu Qinyi followed them to the study.
Tang Jingrui closed the door.
"Much better."
As soon as Mu Qinyi finished speaking, Tang Wenzong and Tang Jingrui immediately heard Mu Nanjin's thoughts.
[Yeah, Mu Qinyi finally left, he finally returned to the Tang family. ]
[I've been pretending to be sick for the whole day and I'm almost suffocating. No, I have to go to Xiaoqinglou to relax. ]
[I hope my uncle won’t come over again tomorrow. If he does, I don’t know how to deal with him.]
Tang Wenzong and Tang Jingrui: "..."
They really didn't know whether they should sympathize with Mu Qinyi.
Mu Qinyi saw that they looked strange and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Tang Wenzong coughed lightly and said, "It's okay. As long as Mu Nanjin is okay, we will go to see her tomorrow with your sister-in-law and the others."
"Um."
Emperor Wenzong of Tang invited Mu Qinyi to sit down.
Tang Jingrui poured them tea.
Tang Wenzong drank a sip of tea and brewed what he wanted to say: "Ayi, I won't ask you where you have been for more than a year. After all, everyone has secrets. If you want to say something, you would have told us when you left. I just want to confirm one thing now."
Mu Qinyi nodded: "Ask."
"I..." Tang Wenzong hesitated for a moment: "I want to know if you are really Mu Qinyi? I mean, are you a member of the Mu family who has done a favor to our Tang family?"
Mu Qin had long expected that they would find out the truth of this matter sooner or later, and he also intended to confess when he came back this time.
Since the Tang family asked, he could use this opportunity to explain everything to them: "No."
“You, you, you…”
Although Tang Wenzong and Tang Jingrui already knew the truth, they were still shocked to hear Mu Qinyi confess in person.
Tang Wenzong stood up suddenly and said: "If you are not a Mu family member, why did you pretend to be a Mu family member and marry my sister?"
Mu Qinyi didn't hide the truth from them: "I needed to hide my identity at the time, and I happened to meet Mu Qinyi who had the same name as me, so I borrowed his identity to survive."
"Then, how did the other Mu Qinyi die? Did you kill him?"
Mu Qinyi shook his head: "When I met him, he was already very ill. The baby girl with him had been dead for many days. Then he asked me to take him and the baby girl back to my hometown for burial. I agreed, and then with his consent, I borrowed his and the baby girl's identities to come to the capital to find you."
Tang Wenzong said excitedly: "You can borrow his identity just for fun, why did you agree to the Tang family's marriage? You, you..."
At the end, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Seeing that his father was about to pass out from anger, Tang Jingrui quickly patted his back and said, "Dad, let's talk nicely. Don't get excited."
"How can I not be excited?" Tang Wenzong said loudly: "The one who is most wronged in this whole thing is your aunt. She is the most innocent person."
Tang Jingrui: “…”
Emperor Wenzong of Tang drank a sip of tea, took a deep breath, and then said, "Mu Qinyi, let me ask you one more question. Do you have any romantic feelings for my sister Tang Liuzhao? Are you actually married to her?"
Mu Qinyi said honestly: "No."
Tang Wenzong suppressed his anger and asked, "So, so you have never had a child because you never touched her, right?"
"Yes."
"Mu Qinyi, you are such a piece of shit."
Emperor Wenzong of Tang angrily threw the teacup in his hand at Mu Qinyi. (End of this chapter)
