"Perhaps in this world, the only person who knows youre a girl is you yourself." Mu Qing Ge said suddenly.

  Mo Ge raised an eyebrow and lifted her gaze, as if waiting for her next words. But in her heart, she was cursing: Wrong, and that damn peeping Tom!

  He appeared at the time when the fantasy device was being repaired, and he was also washing off the dirt on his body. What else could be seen by him?

  Fortunately, this little body doesnt have much to show off nowadays, and with the undergarment wrapped around me, its not like Im losing out on anything big.

  "Now, I only remember that when I was young and foolish, my mother told me that if I wanted Grandfather to be happy and for the Mu estate to be at peace, I couldnt take off the earrings." Mu Qing Ge lowered her head and spoke softly, as if she had fallen into a reverie.

  Mo Ge was silent.

  She might be able to guess some of the key points.

  The Mu estates position in the Qin state is delicate, and Mu Xiongs military achievements are too great, so its certain that they will attract the emperors jealousy. If the Mu estate didnt have a male heir, the emperor could naturally take back the hereditary title, and if he was ruthless, he could even marry her off to some imperial prince, quietly eroding the Mu estate and rendering Mu Xiong powerless.

  But if the Mu Estate has an heir, no matter how weak, the emperor cannot easily move against the Mu Estate and must instead handle relations with caution. No matter what happens behind the scenes, a show of closeness is necessary. Otherwise, it will not only chill the hearts of Qins soldiers but also those of its people.

  This was the second time Mu Ge felt curious about the mother of this body. What kind of woman could not only take out a mysterious device, but also use her own biological daughter to set up this chessboard?

  Mo Ge turned his gaze, and his clear eyes fell on the semi-transparent Mo Qing Ge: "You seemed to have said that in the Mo Manor, your only remaining blood relatives are Grandfather and Aunt. Then what about your parents?"

  Parents...

  This word seemed to touch a taboo in Mu Qings heart. A flash of pain flickered across her eyes, and then she slowly said: "When I was four years old, my father died in battle. My mother refused to believe it and went alone to the battlefield to look for him, but there was no news from her afterwards. My mother was an orphan who met my father during her training, and after she left, Grandfather also sent people to find her, but ultimately there was no news."

  Four years old... Now, Mu Qing Ge is fifteen years old.

  Eleven years without any news, Im afraid...

  Mo Ge silently looked at Mu Qing Sang, as if he had begun to understand the latters extreme behavior when he was alive.

  A few years old child, alone hiding a shocking secret. Since childhood, carrying the heavy burden of family. Mu Qingge is not like herself with an adult mind, she can only rely on herself to complete her mothers mission.

  Unfortunately, she happened to be a waste, unable to cultivate. Under various pressures, its likely that she can only use the name of a noble lady to let people still remember Qin Guos Mu Fu.

  One persons soul was silent for a long time, and finally, it was Mu Ge who broke the silence.

  "Lets talk about that He guy." Mu Ge put her hands behind her head, leaned back on the pillow, and gazed up at the top of the tent.

  At the mention of this matter, Mu Qings eyes condensed with intense killing intent. A cold voice gritted out a name: "He Cheng."

  "Whats going on?" Mu Ges eyes flowed with a gloomy, unclear light. "Given Masters temperament, someone calculated his precious grandson, the only descendant of the Mu family, and indirectly caused the death of 500 imperial guards. Im afraid that without you saying anything, they would have torn that person to pieces. Why did he tell me not to kill him?"

  "Because, the He family is a faction of the Rui King. If He Cheng doesnt die, they wont say a word no matter what you do. But once hes dead, the He family will take advantage of the situation to suppress the Mu family. The one above might even use this opportunity to reclaim some of the military power from your grandfather. The Mu family has never been involved in the princes struggles, but because of me, the Mu estate and the Rui King estate have become ambiguous. Now that the Emperor is old, each of the princes is eager to move, your grandfather doesnt want to get involved at this time. So, he wont let you kill He Cheng, but also wants you to keep a distance from the Rui King."

  "Youre quite clear about it in your heart." Mu Ge said with a cold smile, seemingly sarcastic and mocking.

  But Mu Qing Ge didnt respond and instead fell into her own thoughts.

  Seeing her like this, Mu Ge guessed that she still had a crush on Rui Wang.

  No more conversation, Mu Ge calculated in her heart. What happened to He Cheng was absolutely not just one murderer. That Rui Wang... This time he followed Mu Lao Yezi together, probably except for confirming with his own eyes whether Mu Qing Ge was dead or alive, it was also for that He Cheng.

  What does Mu Fu want to get out of He Cheng?

  Mo Ges mouth corners suddenly rose with a sly smile, and his clear eyes had a few more playful glints.

  It depends on whether she agrees or not!

  Cant kill? No problem, leave it for later. Mu Ges smile had a few more hints of cruelty. She would let those who dared to provoke her clearly feel what it meant by better off dead.

  A life of a lowly person, how can it be compared to the 500 heroic martyrs of the Mu family?!
