Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Sun Boyan said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Thank you for reminding me, Brother Tong."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two returned to their respective rooms.

Upon returning to the room, Sun Boyan's servant came forward and took out a letter from his pocket.

"Young master, it's a letter from Jiangnan."

Sun Boyan took the letter, opened it, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

The servant asked, "Young master, is something good happening?"

Sun Boyan nodded, a smile playing on his lips: "It's my uncle and a few cousins ​​coming to the capital. They're coming to pay their respects to the old lady and then attend the Crown Princess's wedding banquet."

"Ah, they've come from Jiangnan. With their arrival to act as matchmakers, you'll surely be able to get closer to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion."

The other day he complained to the young master that the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was not close enough to him or take good care of him.

Sun Boyan nodded with a smile: "Yes, with my uncle and cousins ​​coming over, I won't have to worry about my official position. I'm definitely going to join the cabinet."

"Congratulations, young master! Your master and mistress will be overjoyed when they find out."

"Yes, this letter was written half a month ago. It says that they are traveling by water, and judging by the days, they should be arriving in the capital soon."

"Let's go and keep watch at the dock."

The master and servant immediately left the inn and headed towards the dock.

Tong Yuling stood at the window on the third floor, watching the two figures walk away, a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Sun Bo and his servant Yan waited at the dock. Fortunately, they waited until noon before the Mu family arrived.

"uncle!"

Upon seeing Mu Changqing, Sun Boyan excitedly stepped forward and called out to him.

Mu Changqing is the head of the Mu family's Jiangnan branch.

Although he was from a branch family, his grandfather was a direct descendant of the Mu family.

To be precise, he is also a direct descendant.

However, the Mu family business was too large, and many people were scattered in various places, which over time led to the formation of many branches.

"It's Bo Yan. Have you been waiting long?"

Mu Changqing wore a dark blue brocade robe, his face was rosy, and Qingran had styled his hair so well that it was shiny and smooth. He looked spirited and showed no signs of fatigue or haggardness from his long journey.

Sun Boyan quickly replied, "I didn't have to wait long. I received the letter this morning and came to the dock to wait as soon as I received it. Luckily, I didn't miss it."

"Thank you for your hard work." Mu Changqing smiled and patted his shoulder. "Boyan, I heard you passed the imperial examination. Has His Majesty granted you an official position?"

Sun Boyan shook his head, "He has passed the exam, but His Majesty has not yet appointed him to an official position."

Mu Changqing nodded. "No rush. You are a member of the Mu family. As for your official appointment, your uncle will mention it to your aunt. With the power of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, it won't be difficult to give you a good position."

Sun Boyan was overjoyed and bowed, saying, "Boyan thanks Uncle for his great kindness, which I will never forget."

He then asked, "Uncle, you must be tired from your journey. Please come with me to the inn to rest. Oh, where are my cousins?"

"Ah Yan, we're here. We're about to disembark. We've been traveling quite a bit and our clothes are rather disheveled, so we just changed into something more presentable."

Then a noble young man in a sapphire blue brocade robe walked over, fanning himself with a folding fan, a bright smile on his face.

"My cousin!"

Sun Boyan immediately exclaimed with delight.

Immediately afterwards, three more figures emerged.

Sun Boyan called out in turn: "Cousin Xu, Cousin Nanwu, and Cousin Xing."

Mu Dongxu was Xu Changqing's eldest son, followed by his second son Mu Xiding, his eldest daughter Mu Nanwu, and his youngest son Mu Beixing.

"Cousin Yan," Mu Dongxu and Mu Nanwu called out.

"Cousin Yan." Mu Beixing is the youngest, only nine years old this year.

Manager Mu Hong instructed his servants to load the ship's contents onto the carriage, and the group entered the imperial city in a grand procession.

"Uncle, aren't you staying at an inn?"

Seeing that the caravan was not heading towards the inn, Sun Boyan couldn't help but ask.

Mu Changqing smiled gently and said, "The Mu family's businesses are all over the world. In my early years, I purchased several courtyards and estates in the capital."

Sun Boyan was immediately speechless.

The Sun family prides themselves on being extremely wealthy, but compared to a behemoth like the Mu family, they are insignificant.

Finally, the convoy stopped in front of a mansion called Rong'an Mansion on East Street.

As soon as the carriage came down, the gate was pushed open from the inside, and an old man who looked like a steward came out to greet them.

Sun Boyan was once again amazed. In the capital city, where land was incredibly valuable, to own such a magnificent mansion was truly worthy of the Mu family.

The carriage entered Rong'an Mansion.

Sun Boyan was pulled aside by Mu Xiding to talk. The two were the same age, so Sun Boyan and Mu Xiding had the most to talk about.

However, Mu Xiding was a month older than Sun Boyan.

"Ah Yan, come on, tell me what interesting things have happened to you since you came to the capital."

Sun Boyan didn't waste any words and directly recounted what he had seen and heard after arriving in the capital.

The story of Wu Zishan is naturally included in this.

"Oh? It was Princess Anguo who saved Zhang and her son. Does she truly possess the abilities of a goddess?"

Mu Xiding asked curiously.

Sun Boyan nodded: "There's no mistake. His Majesty witnessed this with his own eyes; it can't be fake."

Mu Xiding nodded solemnly and turned to look at Mu Nanwu.

Mu Nanwu wore a light green, double-breasted brocade dress with flowing light, and a pair of hibiscus-embroidered shoes. Her hair was styled in a hundred-flower bun, and she wore a set of purple chrysanthemum gemstone headdresses. There was a pink and gold chrysanthemum flower ornament between her eyebrows.

Her skin was as white as snow, as delicate as the finest mutton fat jade, with almond-shaped eyes that were slightly upturned at the corners, a delicate nose and cherry lips, making her charming and alluring.

However, her temperament exudes a cool and aloof air, making her charming yet not frivolous, which in turn adds to her aloofness and allure.

She had a slender waist, just like her name suggests, and she was an exceptionally skilled dancer.

Seeing Mu Xiding looking over, she smiled with interest and said, "It seems that this Princess Anguo is indeed extraordinary. I am even more eager to meet her."

Mu Changqing turned around and said with a smile, "If Wu'er wants to see Princess Anguo, she will definitely be able to. By seniority, you two are cousins."

When Mu Changqing's family arrived, Sun Boyan naturally stayed there, and so Sun Boyan also moved into Rong'an Mansion.

After resting, the family sat in the courtyard to admire the moon in the evening. It was almost the fifteenth of the lunar month, and the moon was perfectly round and bright.

Mu Xiding flew up to a pomegranate tree in the courtyard. He squatted on the top of the tree and looked out.

The imperial city remains lively at night, especially on East Street.

Suddenly, Mu Xiding let out a soft exclamation.

"I didn't notice during the day, but didn't Father say that Rong'an Mansion was right across from Hechang Mansion? How come it's now the Mu Residence?"

"Second brother, don't be surprised. The Mu residence used to be the Hechang Mansion. I heard that Shangguan Tang and his mother lived in the Mu residence. They changed the name after they moved in."

Mu Dongxu said.

Musiding nodded: "I see."

He paused, then his eyes lit up with interest. "So, Princess Anguo lives there?"

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at the person opposite him. "No, I have to take a good look at what this Princess Anguo looks like. Even His Majesty is looking at her with new respect. I don't believe she is really some kind of goddess."

"Second brother, what are you thinking about? What goddess is there in this world?" Mu Dongxu said calmly as he sat at the stone table under the tree.

"Brother, Wu'er, do you think I can discover anything interesting by keeping such a close eye on you? For example, the secret of that Princess Anguo pretending to be a goddess?" Mu Xiding continued to stare at the person opposite him.

Meanwhile, Ying Yufu was snuggled in bed, secretly reading the latest storybook.

Xiao Dian squatted beside her, squinting her eyes as she kept her company.

Suddenly, Xiao Dian opened its eyes. It was now in the form of a gyrfalcon, and its eagle eyes shone with an incomparably sharp light.

[Host, a mouse is spying on you!]

Ying Yufu looked up, immediately curious, "Who's so blind?"

[Host, it's right across from the Mu residence.]

After Xiao Dian finished speaking, he searched through the system and then suddenly realized: "I know, host, the Mu family from Jiangnan has sent people. They are staying at Rong'an Mansion across the street."

There's someone squatting in the tree right now, spying on us.

Wait, let me hear what they're saying.

Xiao Dian listened intently.

A moment later, it said angrily: "Well done, host, they're saying you're not a real goddess."

They also wanted to uncover your secret of pretending to be a goddess by spying on you.

Ying Yufu remained expressionless, her eyes turning cold.

Before I could even go looking for them, they ran right into me.

First, he used Sun Boyan to send poisoned pearl beads to my maternal grandmother, and later he cut off my business with Xilin.

Alright, since that's the case, then I'll let them witness the goddess's abilities.

Hey, are there any ranged attack methods? Something cheap.

[Yes! The host can purchase the Polar Light, a one-time attack that costs only 30 points. The host can unleash the Polar Light on the opponent, blinding them. Aren't they always peeping?]

[Okay! Purchase Midnight Light.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully purchasing the Light of the Midnight Sun. The system has deducted 30 points, bringing your original points to 53665 and your current point balance to 53635.]

A small silver ball appeared in Ying Yufu's hand.

【Little Dian, go.】

Upon hearing this, Little Dian immediately grabbed the small ball in its mouth and flew away.

Across from him, Mu Xiding, who was crouching in a tree intently observing the movements of the Mu residence, suddenly saw a white figure fly out, and excitement flashed in his eyes.

"It's out! It's out! Something's really coming out!"

He sounded excited.

Everyone else looked in his direction as well.

Just then, an extremely dazzling white light suddenly pierced the night and shot straight toward them.

The white light appeared out of nowhere, and its brightness was extremely terrifying. They didn't even have time to see what the white light was before their eyes were stinging with extreme pain.

"ah--"

The first victim was Mu Xiding, who was crouching in the tree. He screamed, covered his eyes, and fell headfirst from the tree.
