Wu Mu, born a slave, was transferred to the Imperial Medical Bureau as an apprentice because of his love for study and his ability to endure hardship. This was already like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. Now, unexpectedly recognized by the queen consort as her brother, he was flattered and alarmed, knelt down for the ceremony, and said, "I dare not accept."
Li Xianyun quickly helped him up and said, "You don't have to kneel every single time, doesn't it tire you out?"
With these words, Wu Mu smiled awkwardly, and Youlan and Zhuo Ma also began to chuckle.
Li Xianyun asked, "What? Do you disdain me, and don't want to acknowledge me as your sister?"
Wu Mu hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Of course not, I just don't dare to aspire that high."
"What's this about aspiring not aspiring? I am willing to recognize you as my brother, wholeheartedly. If you have any unspeakable difficulties, not acknowledging me as your sister is also not a problem..."
