Xu Xinhe shook Jiang Zhenru's arm excitedly.

Tang Maodian was also very excited and said to Tang Wenzong: "I never thought that the dead girl..."

"Tang Maodian."

Tang Wenzong interrupted him sternly: "From now on, you must not be so rude to the Duke of Zhenguo, otherwise no one can guarantee the safety of the Tang family."

Tang Maodian nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, you can't call her a dead girl anymore, from now on, call her the Duke."

Emperor Wenzong said to the servants in the house, "You and the servants outside should all retreat to the backyard. You are not allowed to come out without our permission."

"yes."

The servants in the house left the hall and retreated to the backyard with the servants in the front yard.

Tang Wenzong exhaled and said, "I always thought that Mu Nanjin would be promoted to the first rank official, but I never thought that she would become a duke."

Jiang Zhenru was surprised and asked, "You think so highly of her?"

Tang Wenzong shook his head and said, "It's not that I think highly of her, it's the emperor who thinks highly of her. The emperor had long intended to promote her, but she didn't want to. Later, she left the capital, so the promotion was put on hold. Now, less than a year after Mu Nanjin came back, she has become the Duke of Zhenguo. This is something no one can do."

Jiang Zhenru was very curious: "What does the emperor think of Mu Nanjin? Is he good at martial arts?"

"It's just one of the reasons. I can't tell you the other reason."

Tang Maodian smiled happily: "It's a good thing that the emperor is optimistic about Mu Nanjin. In the future, Mu Nanjin may be promoted to a prince, and we will be his relatives."

Tang Wenzong, Jiang Zhenru: "..."

"Let's pack up and return to Beijing now."

Xu Xinhe pulled Jiang Zhenru out.

Jiang Zhenru hurriedly stopped and said, "Mother-in-law, why are we returning to Beijing?"

good.

The Xu Xinhe in front of us is the former old lady Tang.

Since she and Mr. Tang took the elixir given by Mu Qinyi, they have regained their youthful appearance.

Now the two of them live in the Tang family as distant relatives of Emperor Wenzong of Tang, and call each other cousins.

As for the identities of Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang, when they returned to He County, they buried them in the ground on the grounds that they were seriously ill.

Today, Tang Maodian and Xu Xinhe have completely new identities.

However, when no one was around, Jiang Zhenru and Tang Wenzong still called them father and mother.

This is also the reason why Emperor Wenzong of Tang did not get angry even though he was so rude in front of County Magistrate Kong.

Xu Xinhe said as a matter of course: "Of course I will go back to Beijing to celebrate with Mu Nanjin."

Jiang Zhenru disagreed: "We are too far away from the capital. Not to mention the fatigue of the journey, even if we rush back, the celebration banquet will be over by the time we get back."

"We are all family, so just set up another table."

Jiang Zhenru was really speechless: "Are we going back to He County after having a meal?"

The cost of their round trip was enough to buy them several large tables of meals here.

"Go back to He County?" Xu Xinhe was puzzled: "Why go back to He County? We will never go back to He County again."

"Not going back to He County?" Jiang Zhenru frowned: "Do you want to live in the capital forever?"

They returned to He County to cover up the identities of Xu Xinhe and Tang Maodian, otherwise they would not be in a hurry to leave Kyoto.

"Mu Nanjin is already the Duke of Zhenguo. As her relatives, we should return to the capital to enjoy the good life with her. We can make more friends with princes and nobles to pave the way for our grandson. It would be best if Jingrui could marry a princess. Of course, it would be even better if Jingrui could marry her."

Tang Wenzong knew his parents would have such thoughts, and he suddenly frowned and said, "Mother, Mu Nanjin's surname is Mu, not Tang. No matter how blessed she is, it has nothing to do with us. Others will at most give us three points of courtesy, but the emperor will not marry the princess to Jingrui for Mu Nanjin's sake. You have said this, but don't say it in front of others, and don't think about it in the future, lest it bring disaster to the Tang family and Jingrui."

Jiang Zhenru pulled Xu Xinhe's hand down and said helplessly, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, let's not talk about anything else, just talk about your attitude towards Mu Nanjin in the past. Since she entered the Tang family, have you ever treated her well?"

Not to mention Old Master Tang and Old Lady Tang, even she and Emperor Wenzong of Tang were sarcastic when they learned that Mu Nanjin loved Tang Jingrui. How could they have the nerve to take advantage of Mu Nanjin?

Mu Nanjin did not announce to the public that he had severed ties with the Tang family, which was a gesture of mercy towards the Tang family out of consideration for their past friendship.

Xu Xinhe, Tang Maodian: "..."

Emperor Wenzong of Tang: "Besides, we have broken off with Mu Qinyi, and we have no blood relationship with Mu Nanjin. How can we enjoy the happiness with her when we go back? We are lucky that she didn't come to mess with us."

Jiang Zhenru pleaded, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, we beg you, please don't go back to the capital to provoke Mu Nanjin, otherwise if she gets upset, the Tang family and Jingrui will be finished, and even the Jiang family will be implicated."

When Xu Xinhe and Tang Maodian thought about the fact that there would no longer be a Tang family in the future, their legs went weak and they almost sat on the ground. They quickly held onto the chairs next to them to steady themselves.

Jiang Zhenru supported Xu Xinhe and said, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, we will take you back to your room. Just forget about what happened today and don't think about it anymore."

Emperor Wenzong of Tang also helped Tang Maodian up and sent him back to the room in the backyard.

Xu Xinhe and Tang Maodian sat in their chairs in a daze.

After sending the people back to the room, Tang Wenzong and Jiang Zhenru left immediately to prevent Xu Xinhe and the others from making trouble again and going to the capital to enjoy the good life with Mu Nanjin.

Not long after they left, Tang Maodian sighed: "I regret it, I really regret it, I regret not treating Mu Nanjin well."

Xu Xinhe also sighed: "If I had known she was so ambitious, I would have worshipped her as my ancestor."

Tang Maodian pounded his chest in deep regret: "We should have raised her as our own granddaughter. Now she can be taken to the Duke's Mansion to enjoy the blessings as her grandparents. At that time, I don't know how many court officials would curry favor with us, and we would have received endless gifts."

"That's right. She let the precious pearl fall into the dust right before our eyes. She is so blind."

Xu Xinhe was filled with regret and slammed the table hard, wishing he could hit his head against a wall and die, and then go back to the place where he picked up Mu Nanjin and took care of her.

At this time, the servant came in with food: "Young Master, Young Madam, it's time for lunch."

"What are you going to eat? I'm not in the mood to eat."

Tang Maodian angrily swept the food off the table.

Xu Xinhe also got angry and stood up and yelled, "Get out, all of you, get out."

The servants quickly cleaned up and left. When they returned to the kitchen, they could no longer hold back and said, "Puh, what a bunch of crap. These poor fellows who came here for refuge think they are the masters of the Tang family. They have a worse temper than the masters. Only the masters can tolerate them. I would have chased them out with a broom long ago."

Others couldn't stand Xu Xinhe and Tang Maodian either, and started cursing at them.

The person who was hiding in the dark and peeking left quietly after seeing this.
