The imperial edict was caught off guard, and everyone's plans were disrupted.

The main courtyard was quiet, no one dared to talk nonsense. Jiang Tang sat under the flower window, looking at the scenery outside the window and not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiao Yinhan didn't come back since he got the imperial edict, and he didn't know if he was afraid of seeing her.

Afraid to see her...

Thinking of these four words, she couldn't help but smile lightly, as bright as Chaohua.

In fact, if he thinks this way, he is really overthinking it. Although she wants to go to Tianshan to find the truth, she will not force him.

In the end, whether he goes or not depends on his own decision.

No one would have thought that Jiang Tang would be so "generous". For another person in the house, the arrival of the imperial edict was like a ray of sunshine shining into her heart that had been depressed for days, and her body and mind seemed to become relaxed.

To this day, Bai Muzhi still has very complicated feelings about Jiang Tang. Although they live in the same house, they spend too little time together.

Do you hate Jiang Tang?
She didn't know, but she definitely didn't like it, because this inexplicable woman had changed her life too much.

But hate is not enough, she doesn't have such strong feelings for her.

But two women and one man will not be fair after all. As long as they meet, it will be a disaster.

She didn't hate Jiang Tang, but she also blamed her.

She may not have done anything against her, but as long as she exists, everyone's eyes will be on her.

Xiao Yinhan likes her, Brother Cui protects him, and even Brother Xing, who has always been friendly to her, is cruel to her for her sake.

From the moment she got to know Jiang Tang, Bai Muzhi's life has been very difficult.

Originally, Bai Muzhi had no feelings about the trip to Tianshan Mountain. It didn't matter to her whether Xiao Yinhan went or not.

But what made her angry was that he had vowed not to go, but he changed his mind because of Jiang Tang's words.

Ah……

There was a sneer on the woman's face that didn't match her innocent face.

Now it's fine, the imperial edict has come down, and neither he nor she can go.

Now Bai Muzhi only has one childish thought in her heart: As long as she can make Jiang Tang unhappy, she will be happy.

Although, the two of them actually didn't even exchange a few words.
-
"Tangtang, I..."

"My lord drinks tea,"

Jiang Tang raised his hand and blocked Xiao Yinhan's mouth with tea. The man didn't frown, and he looked like he was in a tangle.

She still insisted on her idea: "Whether you go or not depends on the prince. No matter what you choose, I can do it."

She smiled softly, as if she really didn't care at all.

Xiao Yinhan took her tea, but did not drink it. Instead, after taking a deep look at her, he put the tea cup down and suddenly turned around and left.

The moment he watched the man leave, Jiang Tang's heart seemed to feel empty for some reason.

It wasn't until the sound of the door closing that she came back to her senses belatedly. She had just looked at him as if she was stunned.

[The "door" into the mountain opens in December. If you miss this time, you will have to wait another year. 】

This time, the system rarely added any exaggeration, but simply narrated calmly.

Jiang Tang pursed his lips and suddenly asked another question: "At this time in the original book, is the emperor already seriously ill?"

System: [Yes.However, in the original work, because the flood in Huai'an was too big, the emperor suppressed the news of his illness in order not to shake the people's hearts. 】

Jiang Tang didn't speak anymore. The timeline of what she was thinking kept going.

Although she worked hard to prevent the tragedy that happened in the original novel, Xiao Yinhan still got injured every time, floods still came, the heroine still fell in love with the hero, and now even the emperor...

"Sometimes I really don't know if I have really succeeded or if I just had a vain dream..."

When you wake up from the dream, there may be nothing left.
-
Generally speaking, after receiving the imperial edict, as long as there are no major problems, you should start immediately.

However, a whole day has passed since receiving the imperial edict, and there has been no movement from Xiao Yinhan.

Xiao Yichen, who had been waiting in the mansion, suddenly became a little uneasy. This time, despite the guards' obstruction, he forced his way into the study.

Then he saw the man sitting behind the desk, motionless, and he almost breathed a sigh of relief:

"What are you doing, fourth brother? The imperial edict has arrived, and the eunuch who delivered it has been waiting. Aren't you leaving yet?"

Xiao Yinhan ignored him, as if he didn't hear him, and kept the same movement without moving.

Xiao Yichen, however, was almost furious. His eyes swept left and right in the study room, and then focused on a silk handkerchief in the man's hand.

The nameless fire in his chest shot up to Lao Gao: "Fourth brother, don't you want to resist the decree and be disrespectful? For the sake of a woman, you don't even listen to what the father says? You..."

"Seventh Prince, be careful what you say!"

Shunzi on the side interrupted.

He came from Wanping County with the imperial edict. He knew that if there was something, he knew it in his heart, but he could never say it out loud.

Realizing that his words were a little too much, Xiao Yichen took a deep breath: "Fourth brother is a sensible person. Father has sent a decree to urgently summon the two of us back. This matter must not be delayed any longer. Where is the eunuch who sent the decree? I will explain it first, fourth brother, so you can take care of yourself!"

After saying this, the young man walked away.

This was probably Xiao Yichen's rare tough stance in front of his fourth brother, and even Shunzi was a little surprised.

However, this thought only lasted for a moment, and he quickly calmed down: "Your Majesty..."

"go out."

Xiao Yinhan finally spoke. Although he only said two words, no one dared not take it to heart.

Even though there were thousands of words in his heart that he wanted to say, the prince had already spoken, and Shunzi did not dare to stay any longer.

He could only suppress his chaotic thoughts, turned around and walked out, then closed the door smoothly.

It can be said that the arrival of the imperial edict focused everyone's attention on Xiao Yinhan. Even the county magistrate knew about it and secretly wanted to come and see him off.

But the prince didn't say anything, and no one dared to speak randomly.

That night, the lights in the study stayed on all night.

Until the next morning, at dawn, the man who had not slept all night walked out of the study.

And the first thing he said was: "Notice to leave today!"

The eyes of Shunzi, who was dozing at the door, lit up: "Okay! I will tell His Highness the Seventh Prince now..."

How dare he speak nonsense in front of the prince!
But as soon as this thought came out, he was stopped by the man behind him: "Stop!..."

"Ready to go?"

Jiang Tang got up a little early today. When the maid was combing her hair, news from the housekeeper came.

She paused for a moment, raised her hand and said to the maid: "Just wear a simpler bun with less hair accessories..."

The maid nodded and followed her master's instructions.

Jiang Tang looked at the fairy-like girl in the bronze mirror, and the corners of his mouth curved, revealing a small, unsmiling look.
-
"Let's go back to Beijing?"

Bai Muzhi also got the news, and the expression on his face changed from the initial surprise to a smile. "It's good to go back, it's good to go back."

As she spoke, she nodded: "It seems that in his heart, she is not that important."

At least, he would not disobey the imperial edict for her sake.

Thinking of those things in her dream, she felt better again.

However, this joy only lasted until she met the man and heard him say: "If you don't know the capital, go to Tianshan." The smile that had been on her face for a short time disappeared instantly.

what……

As shocked as Bai Muzhi was Xiao Yichen, who thought he was going back to the capital.

"Fourth brother, do you know what you are talking about?" Xiao Yichen's face turned red with anger, and he clenched his fists tightly. He looked so angry that anyone who saw him would praise him for his filial piety.

"know."

Xiao Yinhan responded to him, but his eyes met the girl standing at the end.

In their eyes, there was a feeling that only each other could understand.

Xiao Yichen, however, couldn't feel what his fourth brother was thinking. He was angry and angry, and even wanted to shake his head to make him wake up.

"I know what I am talking about. I have a reason why I must go. I will write a letter to explain to my father. You don't need to worry about it."

Xiao Yin's cold words almost made Xiao Yichen laugh angrily: "I don't have to worry about you, and I can't control you! But what about the other people? If the civil and military officials in the court, the princes and clans find out that you went to an inexplicable place, Even if my father is seriously ill and doesn’t return to Beijing, what will they think?!”

Although Xiao Yichen had some selfish intentions, he had been a staunch supporter of King Rong from the beginning. Xiao Yinhan's disregard for the lives of others really made him angry to death.

But no matter how he tried to persuade him, the man who had already made up his mind ignored him and even asked someone to take him away.

"Let go of me, I'll go by myself!"

Xiao Yichen spoke coldly, and the guard who originally held him looked at each other and let go of his hand in embarrassment.

"Since the fourth brother has made his decision, I will not dissuade the younger brother. After returning to Beijing, I will tell my father exactly what happened here. As for what my father will think..."

He paused and said solemnly: "That's not something I can decide."

The determination in these words made everyone present feel trembling in their hearts.

There was a feeling that the prince had really angered the seventh prince.

Shunzi moved her mouth, wanting to say something to persuade her, but seeing the prince's expression, she closed her mouth again.

Xiao Yichen left immediately and walked out. But when he passed by Jiang Tang, he stopped: "It's all your fault, you evil spirit!"

After saying that, he strode away without waiting for Jiang Tang's reaction.

Jiang Tang's expression was calm, as if he hadn't heard anything.

On the other side, Bai Muzhi, who witnessed all this, looked even uglier than on the hospital bed.

She couldn't understand why it was like this.

Is this woman really that important?
"Miss……"

When she saw Jiang Tang walking towards Xiao Yinhan, she turned around and stumbled away, unable to stay to see how loving and intimate the two were.

"My lord, are you okay..."

A familiar and gentle voice came from behind, like the warm sun melting away the cold winter.

Xiao Yinhan turned around and met a pair of gentle and clear eyes. He subconsciously smiled: "I am fine, why did you come out?"

That gentle demeanor was completely different from the strong and cold look just now, making people feel like nothing happened just now.
-
Since Xiao Yinhan informed him to leave, he really left.

Jiang Tang didn't persuade him until the moment he boarded the carriage.

Others didn't understand, but she knew very well that she had to go on this trip.

It is also the only chance to get the truth.

Therefore, when she learned about the man's decision, she was relieved.

"Since you have decided, don't think about it. No matter what you do, I will accompany you." Until the end of the mission.

Naturally, Xiao Yinhan couldn't hear the last sentence, but the previous sentence was enough.

All his irritable mood calmed down with her words.

Yes, there is no need to regret the decision that has been made.

He even made a rebellious joke:

"The disaster will last for thousands of years. It's not that easy for the old man to get into trouble..."

Even though he said it easily, Jiang Tang could still read the man's nervousness at the moment from the strength with which he hugged her.

For the emperor, his mood must be very complicated.

"Good~"

Jiang Tang didn't say anything more, just patted the man's head and comforted him silently.
-
And another thing that was unexpected and reasonable was that Bai Muzhi asked to go with them.

Xiao Yinhan's first reaction was to refuse. He didn't want to take her there.

Because of those dreams and those inexplicable feelings, he actually disliked Bai Muzhi.

There was a vague feeling that leaving her by his side would bring misfortune to him.

But Bai Muzhi had to go, and even gave the reason "she gave her the map", which once again involved Fangbi. Xiao Yinhan was about to refuse, but stopped.

"Whatever you want, if anything happens to you, I won't care about you!"

He didn't pay any attention to leaving such a graceless sentence.

But Bai Muzhi also has his own position in the team.

Compared with Xiao Yinhan's coldness and disregard for old feelings, Xiao Yichen was worried and persuaded: "That place is unknown and dangerous, not to mention that the fourth brother's heart is now devoted to that woman, so why should you..."

This was the first time Xiao Yichen persuaded Bai Muzhi to leave his fourth brother, but it wasn't until he opened his mouth that he realized that it wasn't that difficult.

But Bai Muzhi shook his head: "I want to go, I must go."

As she spoke, she kept staring stubbornly in the direction the man left, wanting to know if he would look back at her again, even once.

Xiao Yichen felt very complicated when he saw it, and all his persuasion turned into a sigh.

He compromised: "If you want to go, then go. I will bring a letter to Shangshu Bai. And these people will be left to you. They will protect you with their lives."

Bai Muzhi finally felt a little moved. She turned back to look at the young man who had been caring and helping her selflessly, with red eyes: "Seventh Prince, thank you. If it weren't for you..."

"Call me by my name."

Xiao Yichen interrupted her abruptly: "Don't call me Seventh Prince, call me by my name."

When he spoke, he was gentle and elegant, as if he were a noble young man.

Bai Muzhi was stunned for a moment, her voice was a little shy, but she still spoke softly: "Xiao, Yichen..."

Xiao Yichen smiled softly when he heard this, but he didn't know if it was an illusion. The way he looked at her was as if he was looking at another person through her...
