Mu Nianci

Mu Nianci is a supporting character from Jin Yong's famous work The Legend of the Condor Heroes. She is the love interest of the lead antagonist, Yang Kang . Mu Nianci is the foster daughter of Yang Kang's birth father, Yang Tiexin . Additionally, Mu Nianci is also the mother of Yang Guo , the protagonist in The Return of the Condor Heroes, the sequel of The Legend of the Condor Heroes. She died eleven years after she gave birth to her son.

Mu Nianci in the current edition of ''The Legend of the Condor Heroes'' is actually an amalgam of the original "Mu Nianci" and "Qin Nanqin" that was written out by Jin Yong. In the original edition, Mu Nianci was in love with Yang Kang, but she was not the mother of Yang Guo. Qin Nanqin was raped by Yang Kang. She would become a nun and traveled with Mu Nianci before settling down to raise Yang Guo. When Yang Kang was going to die of poison, the original Mu Nianci killed him out of pity and committed suicide next to him. Jin Yong stated that he believed Qin Nanqin's role to be unnecessary and decided to make them into one character in the later edition.
