"These are the ancestors of the Mu family. Yunxi, quickly kowtow to them.”Madam Mu explained as she placed the lit incense in her hand.
No wonder he had to make so many people bathe her. It turned out that he was here to meet his ancestors.
However, Yun Xi found it strange and blurted out,""These are the ancestors. What about those in the temple hall? Are these two different? Are those all lies?"
Grand Tutor Mu's beard trembled, and his face darkened.
"These few people passed away earlier. The things in the temple hall happened later.”Madam Mu glanced at Grand Tutor Mu's expression and explained in a low voice.
Yun Xi knew that Grand Tutor Mu was serious today, so she didn't coy and kowtowed to them with the incense.
Madam Mu took the incense and carefully inserted it.
After that, he stood quietly beside Grand Tutor Mu and did not speak again.
Suddenly, the room fell silent. Other than their breathing, there was no other sound. It seemed that the soundproofing of this room was better.
Wasn't he just the ancestor of the Mu family? Why did he have to set up such a hidden secret chamber to worship him?
Yun Xi moved her knees, wanting to get up.
"Who allowed you to get up?" Grand Tutor Mu was especially stern today, and his face was tense. It seemed that he had a lot to say, but the words that were about to come out seemed very heavy. For a moment, he deliberated over it again and again, and his expression became more and more unsightly.
Yun Xi had no choice but to kneel down again.
"Do you understand what Master Wuchen said today?”After a while, Grand Tutor Mu looked down at Yun Xi.
Because of the light, half of Grand Tutor Mu's face was hidden in the darkness. Coupled with his rigid face, he looked like a judge from hell at this time, looking a little scary.
"I will be the Empress?" Yun Xi did not avoid his gaze and forced herself to look him in the eye.
This kind of thing, coupled with the fact that they were in such a strange place, Yun Xi had a feeling that something even more supernatural would happen next.
"Arrogant fellow, how can you casually say such words!”Grand Tutor Mu berated with a cold expression.
Yun Xi blinked and clenched her fists. Wasn't he the one who asked? Now he was blaming her?
Grand Tutor Mu stared at Yun Xi's untamed gaze, his beard trembling in anger. If it wasn't for Wuchen that eminent monk saying that Yun Xi's fate was peculiar, he really wouldn't have thought of Yun Xi in that direction in the slightest.
"Master, don't lower yourself to the level of a child.”Madam Mu saw that the atmosphere had been ignited and immediately went to appease Grand Tutor Mu.
"You're my father and mother. Do I have to hide what I want to say? Besides, I'm only answering what everyone knows. Besides, didn't you capture me to such a hidden place to tell me the truth?”Yun Xi had never been a secretive person.
"Aiya, if you say you're a child, then you're a child. How can you say you're captured? Dad and Mom just found a quieter place to talk to you.”Madam Mu was afraid that the Grand Tutor would get angry again after hearing Yun Xi's words, so she quickly interrupted her.
Yun Xi pursed her lips, raised her head and puffed out her chest."Since you want to say it, then be direct. Anyway, I've already accepted the fact that I've been a fool for the past ten years. I won't be too surprised by what you have to say.”
The Grand Tutor looked at Yun Xi, who was so complacent and did not know how to advance and retreat in a roundabout way, and shook his head secretly. It was really as difficult as ascending to the heavens to let her go to that place where there were rules everywhere.
" Master…" Madam Mu looked at the Grand Tutor and reminded her softly," Since things have come to this, the child will know one day. Now that things have been clarified, I believe she will work hard."”
The Grand Tutor didn't even have the strength to sigh. He turned around and stared at the portrait for a while before slowly saying,"" Back then, the plague was rampant in the Tianqi Kingdom, and everyone was in a panic. In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, many places were sealed off. The epidemic area was already short of medicinal herbs, and the living conditions were getting worse. The disease had almost completely spread in the epidemic area. At that time, our family was at the end of our rope…"
There was nothing new about this kind of plot. Yun Xi thought that perhaps there would be a plot where she would devote herself to him or work as a cow to repay his kindness.
Yun Xi was not concerned about this at all. She did not pay much attention to what the Grand Tutor had said.
"Although the old master's family was also seriously ill, it was just a common typhoid fever, not an epidemic. However, if they continued to be passive like this, it was very likely that they would be reduced to ashes along with the entire epidemic area. Therefore, he used his last breath to run to the front of the blockade area. He wanted to tell the soldiers why he came, but they did not give him a chance to speak. They almost beat him to death!”Grand Tutor Mu's eyes were a little dazed. That deep affection seemed to be empathetic.
"Fortunately, Old Master met the Retired Emperor. Not only did the Retired Emperor save him, but he also ordered people to bring Old Master's family out of the epidemic area. As a result, Old Master's family was out of danger. From then on, Old Master gave a death order. All the descendants of the Mu family must have men enter the court as officials, and women must have women enter the harem to repay the Retired Emperor's kindness!”
Yun Xi's eyes lit up. She seemed to understand why they had given him that thing.
" When it comes to your generation…" Grand Tutor Mu slowly turned around and stared at Yun Xi." Your second brother is weak by nature and is not suitable to be an official in the court. No matter how much trouble your fourth brother causes, when the right time comes, he will eventually enter the official career. As for the harem…"
Grand Tutor Mu's gaze shifted." We've placed our hopes on Liu Yun since we were young. Her performance was definitely competent, but in the end…"
In the end, Yun Xi actually appeared!
No one had expected that a fool would suddenly not be stupid anymore. Moreover, he had even encountered an eminent monk to enlighten him.
Yun Xi pretended to be dumb and smilingly looked at Grand Tutor Mu."Didn't the monk say that Sister Liu Yun's future is limitless? With her talent and ability, I think no one is more suitable than her to enter the palace.”
At this point, Yun Xi could no longer care about being selfish. Just as Grand Tutor Mu had said, Liu Yun was born for that position in the palace. From a young age to university, all his skills were used to show off in the treacherous palace. People like her had always been machines set up according to established procedures. She could live in the palace and live a good life, but Yun Xi could not.
When the Grand Tutor heard Yun Xi's words, a trace of scheming flashed across his dark eyes. He said in a low voice," She is indeed the best candidate, but..."
Yun Xi's heart skipped a beat. She understood the meaning of the Grand Tutor's gaze. Liu Yun was not bad, but if he could have double insurance, it would be even more reassuring. If the two of them from the Mu residence were to be touched, the chances of him obtaining the highest position in the harem would become even greater!
At the beginning, perhaps the Old Master really wanted to repay the Retired Emperor's kindness, but as time passed, everything changed. People were greedy, especially after tasting the delicious taste of power, it was even more impossible to let go.
