"Get up. If you dare to say bad things about your sister again, be careful of my family's punishment." Lu Nianxin finally stood up and looked at Yue Fanchen's black panda eyes, and couldn't help laughing again.
"Don't worry, mother. I won't dare to do it again." Yue Fanchen climbed up covered in dust and dirt. He looked as miserable as he could be, but there was a warm smile in his eyes.
"Back then, when I found out about your father's identity, your father and your mother were deeply in love and inseparable. I knew your mother was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, so I didn't dare to force them apart. Instead, your uncle had a huge fight with your mother over this matter, and your mother left home in anger. In the end, she married your father.
You know the deep hatred between Anyun and Shangyue, so I don't need to explain it. Fearing the Mu family might be implicated and your mother harmed, this matter was kept secret. The public was told that your mother had been spotted by a hermit and accepted as a disciple during her travels. Even on your mother's wedding day, I only watched from afar, exchanged a few words with that old bastard Mu Beichen, and then returned to Shangyue. "You and your mother have suffered so much over the years," Lu Nianxin continued, her resentment undiminished at the mention of Mu Beichen.
"In fact, we have lived very well these years. Although we were exiled, no one dared to offend my father as the lord of the city. I have been naughty since I was a child and was even given the title of the number one playboy in Black Stone City." Mu Hanyan saw the guilt in her grandmother's eyes and said comfortingly.
In fact, she is more than just the number one playboy, she also has several other nicknames such as Mu the Prodigal and Mu Siyi, but I am embarrassed to say more about these.
"Well, I know, I know. Although Mu Beichen is a bit of a bastard, the son he gave birth to is pretty good. I also know that Fan Ling hasn't suffered much following him all these years." Lu Nianxin wiped her eyes and said with relief. Unfortunately, she still had a deep prejudice against Mu Beichen and her resentment could not be dispelled.
"By the way, I have a younger brother, but unfortunately he has been traveling all the time, otherwise I would have brought him along this time." Mu Hanyan said.
"I met that brat Han Feng once. The master he worshipped is an old friend of mine. I asked someone to send him some pills. I heard that his strength has improved a lot recently." Lu Nianxin said with a smile, and it seemed that she was very satisfied with her little grandson.
Mu Hanyan was originally worried about whether Mu Hanfeng could take care of himself when he was alone outside, but after hearing this, she was completely relieved.
Although I can't see my grandmother's true strength, given her status and vision, the people she makes friends with will definitely not be ordinary people. Mu Hanfeng is able to learn from such a famous teacher and has the care of my grandmother. I believe that the next time they meet, she will be able to give me a big surprise.
"It's getting late. I have asked people to prepare a palace banquet. Your uncle will be here soon, and it's time for you to meet him." Lu Nianxin looked at the time and said.
Soon, Mu Hanyan met her mother's eldest brother, the current Emperor of Shangyue - Yue Fanyi.
Yue Fanyi is in his prime, and looks somewhat like his mother. He is dressed in casual clothes, and exudes elegance amidst his majesty.
"You must be Hanyan, right? Seeing you is like seeing Fan Ling as a child." Yue Fanyi looked at Mu Hanyan and said lovingly.
"Hanyan greets the emperor uncle." Mu Hanyan said after thinking for a while.
"What uncle emperor? Today we are reunited as a family. Let's talk about family affection and not state affairs. Just call me uncle." Yue Fanyi waved his hand and laughed heartily.
Martial arts are a common practice in the Shangyue Kingdom, especially in the royal family. Every royal child would travel and practice cultivation when they were young, and Yue Fanyi was no exception. Therefore, at this time, Yue Fanyi not only did not have the majesty of a king, but instead had a bit of the unrestrained and boldness of a cultivator.
"And me, just call me uncle." Yue Fanchen said with a shameless face.
What greeted him was Lu Nianxin's raised palm and Mu Hanyan's rolled eyes.
However, his interruption made the atmosphere more harmonious and there was no longer any awkwardness.
Soon, the food and wine were served. Yue Fanyi completely put aside his status as a king. While picking up food for Mu Hanyan, he asked about their family's situation over the years. Although he had already told Lu Nianxin about it once, Mu Hanyan did not feel impatient and repeated the nice things.
We had a great time eating and reminiscing about the past.
"Alas, I was impulsive back then and didn't consider your mother's temper. I had a big fight with her. Otherwise, you wouldn't have suffered so much." Yue Fanyi sighed with self-blame.
"That's not your fault. Grandfather asked us to go to Black Stone City because of my divine guardian bloodline. Besides, we didn't suffer much in Black Stone City." Mu Hanyan said.
Although Shang Yue and An Yun were not on good terms, and the marriage between her mother and the Mu family was a taboo for both Shang Yue and An Yun, Mu Hanyan also knew that their family was "exiled" to Black Stone City mainly because of her bloodline protected by the gods, and it had nothing to do with her mother's identity, so she couldn't blame Yue Fanyi.
As for the matter of the God's Guardian, it was no secret to the royal families of all countries, so there was no need for her to hide it. Moreover, she had long seen that Yue Fanchen was also a descendant of the God's Guardian with awakened bloodline.
"That being said, if I hadn't been impulsive back then, your mother wouldn't have run away in anger, and there wouldn't have been no one to see her off on the wedding day. Ultimately, it's all my fault.
"My mother and I have already agreed that, given your mother's stubborn nature, she will most likely never return to Shangyue. You will inherit her title of Princess, along with the Princess's Mansion and fiefdom," Yue Fanyi said.
"That's not appropriate, is it?" Mu Hanyan said hesitantly. After all, she was a citizen of Anyun. If she became the eldest princess of Shangyue, she didn't know what kind of uproar would be caused among the people.
"What's wrong with this? The restoration of diplomatic relations between Anyun and Shangyue is imminent. Your identity is actually an opportunity. What's more, the Nine Netherworld Prison has reappeared on the continent, and a great catastrophe of heaven and earth is about to come. What's the big deal about this little thing?" Yue Fanyi waved his hand and said in a loud voice.
The aura of a king emanated from him, and it was irrefutable.
"Okay then." After hearing what he said, Mu Hanyan couldn't refuse.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, King Wu Tianxiong is requesting an audience outside the palace." At this time, an eunuch came in to report.
"He still has the nerve to come and see us?" Yue Fanyi raised his eyebrows, revealing a bit of anger.
At the same time that Yue Fanchen and Mu Hanyan left Dingbian City, the city guards' written battle reports were delivered to the capital by eagle message, so they also knew the whole story of the strange beast attack on Dingbian City.
"He also said that if he is not given an explanation for Wu Ziyue's matter, he will not give up." Seeing that the emperor was angry, the eunuch added tremblingly.
"What? Wu Ziyue, as the lord of a city, not only bullied the people and failed to defend the city, but in order to shirk responsibility, he even slandered my royal family and wanted to kill people to silence them. He even dared to ask us for an explanation!" Yue Fanyi shouted angrily.
