The two siblings smiled at each other and stepped over the threshold side by side.

main room.

Mu Yunlong lifted his hem and knelt in front of the old lady.

The old lady knew why he came. She was leaning on a dragon-headed cane with tears in her eyes.

"A crime!"

Jiang had served her for many years and understood the old lady's mind best. She knew that she had always been concerned about the Mu family's army and did not want the glory that the Mu family's ancestors had gained with their blood to be destroyed.

"Grandma, there are several veterans of the Mu Family Army who want to see you."

Mu Yunlong said shockingly: "They also found my grandson and wanted to use the name of the Mu family's son to boost morale and lead the Mu family army to regroup, resist foreign enemies, overthrow tyranny, and save the people from danger."

"Where are they?"

The old lady was inexplicably excited: "Where is it? When did you come?"

"Just arrived yesterday."

Mu Yunlong did not hide anything: "They are in a cave not far away right now. If grandma wants to see them, I will send a signal and they will be here in a moment."

"Send a signal quickly."

The old lady was impatient: "Let them come over."

"Yes."

Mu Yunlong stood up from the ground and winked at his second brother.

Mu Yunhu understood what was going on, took out a flare from his arms, lit the fuse, and threw it out of the window.

"Oh!"

The flare whizzed into the night sky and exploded with a loud bang.

In the pitch-black night, it looks like a blooming firework.

Not long after, the sound of hurried horse hooves was heard outside the village.

Several fast horses came from afar and stopped suddenly outside the Mu family's courtyard.

Before the horses stopped, three old warriors in black clothes and armor and with gray hair jumped down from their horses.

The three of them all had solemn expressions, looking intimidating without being angry, and exuding a chilling aura of iron and blood from the inside out.

"Three generals, please come in!"

Mu Yunlong greeted the guests on behalf of his grandmother, bowed and saluted with a very respectful look.

"My Lord, you are welcome."

The three generals politely returned the greeting, stepped over the threshold, and saw the old lady. Their faces changed at the same time, revealing an expression of disbelief.

The old lady was in her twilight years and her hair was already full of white ten years ago.

They thought they would see an old man whose half body was about to be buried in the ground.

Unexpectedly, the old lady was very different from what they had imagined.

Not only does he not look old, he even looks more energetic than he did ten years ago.

This is too incredible!

No wonder the three generals felt weird.

It’s not that the old lady has some magical spell to restore youth.

But she has a considerate and filial granddaughter.

Ten years ago, not long after the family arrived in Quanxiang Village, Mu Xueyan gave the longevity pills to the three elders, the old lady, Jiang and Qin.

Liu, Yan Linqing, Mu Yufu and the sisters Mu Yulin took the anti-aging pills.

Although the whole family was unaware of the situation, their daughters and sons' youthfulness remained unchanged for more than a decade, which made them guess the truth.

Such amazing luck!

It can only be brought to them by the little lucky star of the family, so they will love their beloved granddaughter even more.

"Yiliang, Liqiu, Hanming..."

When the old lady saw the three generals, she burst into tears of excitement.

The three generals were all former subordinates of the Duke. They had followed him for many years, accompanied him in battles, and made great contributions.

Back then, the three of them were young men riding horses and waving whips, full of vigor and vitality.

Now, the Duke has passed away, the Fuguo Mansion has fallen into trouble, and the three of them have gray hair and are no longer as glorious as they used to be.

"Old lady!"

When the three generals saw that the old lady still remembered their names, their eyes became red.

"Good good..."

The old lady was very happy and said three good words in a row: "You have lived up to the Duke's expectations and are still serving the Mu Family Army and guarding the border. If the Duke is still alive, he will be proud of you."

"Old lady."

The three generals were filled with sorrow when they heard him mention the Duke. "We are so ashamed that we failed to protect the Mu Family Army. The Mu Family Army is now in name only. It is no longer the invincible army that it once was."

"It's not your fault that the Mu family army has declined to this point."

The old lady is not confused, so how could she not know the predicament of the Mu family army?

"Old lady, please listen to me."

The three generals looked at each other and knelt on one knee.

"What are you doing? Get up."

How could the old lady accept such a great gift from the three generals? She hurriedly extended her hand to help them.

"Old lady."

The three generals had made up their minds and refused to stand up. "We are not forcing you, but the Mu family army has reached the end of its rope. There is no one to turn the tide. The army is demoralized. I am afraid that even without the enemy attacking, they will become a pile of loose sand and be defeated without a fight."

"Brother Long told me about this matter, and I already know about it."

The old lady sighed sadly, "But raising an army is no small matter. Once you rise up and openly oppose the court, you will be a traitor. The Duke's reputation will not be ruined in my hands."

"Old lady."

The three generals looked anxious: "It's not that we are disloyal or unfilial, but the current situation has reached the point where we must make a decision."

"Grandma, I have a way to have the best of both worlds. I wonder if I should tell you or not?"

Mu Xueyan had been listening silently. When she heard this, her smart and cunning eyes turned and she spoke at the right time.

The old lady was delighted: "What does Sister Yan want to say?"

"The old lady doesn't want to start a rebellion, it's just because she is concerned about her reputation."

Mu Xueyan was confident: "This is easy to handle. We don't need to take the lead. We can just pick a suitable person from among the princes and grandchildren, raise an army in his name, and support him to take the throne."

"You put it lightly."

The old lady knew her granddaughter was smart, so she smiled and scolded: "Do you think the princes and grandchildren are like cabbages? You can choose whatever you want?"

"Moreover."

Qin also smiled and said, "Growing up in the palace, we have been exposed to life and death and intrigue. How many princes and grandchildren have not grown up badly and are worthy of our full support?"

"There is a ready candidate."

Mu Xueyan's black eyes flashed with cunning: "Everyone knows that Queen Duanrong has a son and a daughter. The daughter is as beautiful as a flower, and the son is ugly."

"Empress Duanrong was also rejected by the old emperor because she gave birth to a prince with a birthmark on his face, who was considered an ominous person. She was deposed and banished to the cold palace."

"When Empress Duanrong's daughter Murong Xue grew up, she married into the Western Liang Kingdom. Her son Murong Chen left the palace after his sister got married and his whereabouts are unknown."

~~

"Ugh."

When Qin heard Murong Xue, she sighed deeply.

Murong Xue has admired Mu Xiao since she was a child and often came to the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion to play.

The two children are of similar age, childhood sweethearts, and have a lot in common.

She once thought that Murong Xue would be the daughter-in-law of their Mu family.

I didn't expect that fate would play tricks on me.

Mu Xiao is missing and his life or death is unknown.

Murong Xue was forced to marry Xuanyuan Li in Xiliang.

~~

"Sister Yan..."

The old lady didn't think much about it, and looked at her granddaughter with burning eyes: "Since you mentioned Murong Chen, do you know where he is now?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell into complete silence.
