Tang Tang also informed Tang Xiaohao that in addition to what he just said, the Wu family never sided with any forces in the imperial court, but they would pay tribute to the imperial family alone every year.

Tang Xiaohao understood when he heard this: "The Wu family tried every means to get to know my father, because my father is the commander of the Iron Guard, as long as he knows my father, he can establish a relationship with the royal family most directly, he is really smart, but aren't they afraid of the Nanrong family?"

Tang Tang said: "This is the cleverness of the Wu family, the Wu family has great respect for other forces in the imperial court, as long as people ask for it, they will do it as much as possible, and those who can't do it will also atone for their sins in other ways, in short, they will definitely not come hard, let alone rely on their relationship with the royal family to be arrogant, all they want is the royal family to give them the right to do business in the coastal area."

"I see, it's really smart," Tang Xiaohao nodded, "Obey and don't fight, but only loyal to the royal family, as long as the Wu family doesn't have any major incidents, the royal family will naturally protect him, so it is speculated that it should be the queen mother who has always defended the Wu family, right?"

Tang Tang smiled: "Childe is really smart, for more than ten years, Childe has been pretending to be crazy and stupid, but Tang Tang is clumsy."

Tang Xiaohao rolled his eyes: "I still like your unruly appearance on weekdays."

Tang Tang lowered his head and smiled for a moment before continuing, "But the Wu family has never done business with Ruiyuan, and they are one of the few families among the Huayuan merchants who have not had any connection with the Ruiyuan Yan clan, which is why your father chose them to lead the caravan to the summer capital this time."

Tang Xiaohao said: "The Wu family has no connection with Ruiyuan, so there will be no protection of forces in the local area, and naturally there will be no direct threat to our mission."

Tang Tang said, "That's right."

At this time, an ironclad guard dressed as a bodyguard outside the carriage said, "Master, Mr. Cai has urged us to set off."

Tang Tang said to the ironclad guard outside the carriage, "Tell me to go down and set off overnight."

Tang Xiaohao was puzzled: "Ruiyuan is even colder at night, why do you have to rush at night and rest during the day?"

Tang Tang explained: "Ruiyuan is very chaotic, it can be said that there are mountain bandits everywhere, but these mountain bandits have a characteristic, that is, they will never come out at night."

Tang Xiaohao didn't understand: "Why?"

Tang Tang said: "Because it was too cold at night, our horses this time were all Ruiyuan's cold horses, and their whole bodies were tightly wrapped, just to be able to travel at night. Young master, the road is long, and the carriage is not warm, so you will rest first."

Tang Xiaohao nodded slightly, and the face of the little bell flashed in his mind again, but he knew that he had to control it.

From now on, he had to deliberately keep his distance from Little Bell, because if he was too close, he was afraid that when he was really separated from her, he would lose control of his emotions and completely collapse.

At the same time, Su Mu, who was driving the carriage pulled by the candle dragon, did not say a word, and did not even greet the small bell in the carriage when he got on the train.

As for the little bell, she sat in the carriage and kept silent, no one knew what she was thinking.

——

Imperial City, Harem, Mingshu Palace.

Tang Wangshu sat in front of the piano table in the pavilion, raising her hands, but she didn't touch the strings, because what she saw in front of her was not the piano, but Ji Chengying's face.

The palace maid stood beside her in the costume of intoxication, looking at Tang Wangshu with a worried face.

After the Liangcheng demon incident, Aoki arranged his intoxication to Tang Wangshu's side according to Tang Xiaohao's instructions. After learning that Tang Wangshu was Tang Xiaohao's sister, he was even more moved, because this was the concubine's willingness to let her, a mandala flower elf, stay with her sister, which was a great trust in her.

Intoxication will not live up to this trust, so he served Tang Wangshu with all his heart, and vowed in his heart to protect Tang Wangshu with all his might.

Tang Wangshu doesn't have any concubines, and he is very good to all the palace maids in Mingshu Palace on weekdays, even if he is angry, he will not deliberately shake his face.

Therefore, Intoxicated Nature's good impression of Tang Wangshu is increasing day by day, and when there is no one, the two are like sisters. Look at the book

The most important thing is that Tang Wangshu never asked about the past of Zuinxin after learning that Zuanxin was a person sent by his younger brother

, and don't worry about who is intoxicated.

It is precisely because of the double trust of Tang Wangshu and Tang Xiaohao that the intoxication at this moment is extremely entangled.

Intoxicated and entangled, whether she should tell Tang Wangshu about the person who slept with her in the past few months was not Ji Chengying, but Ji Hanguang.

When Ji Hanguang appeared in front of Tang Wangshu for the first time, Tang Wangshu felt that something was wrong, but after all, she was too innocent to think that it was not a person, but the details of some things made Tang Wangshu feel more and more strange.

Especially in the matter of men and women, Tang Wangshu even had the impulse to push the people in front of him away.

When Ji Chengying hugged Tang Wangshu on the bed, it was lingering, but Ji Hanguang rarely hugged her, basically perfunctory, giving Tang Wangshu more of a conquest, even if it was a hug, it was also extremely aggressive.

When he came to Tang Wangshu's side, he was also surprised, and he didn't understand why Ji Chengying and Ji Hanguang's brotherhood was so stable that they could have a woman together?

After all, she is an elf, even if she doesn't use witchcraft, she can also peek into Ji Hanguang's heart and Ji Chengying's is completely different.

Ji Hanguang has a lot of desires in his heart, and he is angry and unwilling, which is why Tang Wangshu can feel Ji Hanguang's aggressiveness.

The funny thing is that whether it is Ji Chengying or Ji Hanguang, the two brothers have shown their true selves in front of Tang Wangshu.

It's just that one is true love, and the other is not believing in the existence of true love, but longing for true love.

"Intoxicated," Tang Wangshu came back to his senses, looked into the distance, and looked in the direction of the imperial study, "Do you think that the emperor is very strange."

Drunk and deliberately pretending to be stupid: "Why?"

Tang Wangshu looked in that direction blankly: "In the past few months, the emperor has not been as gentle as in the past, but these days the emperor's gentleness has returned, which makes me feel very scared."

Tang Wangshu should indeed feel afraid, because what Ji Hanguang is doing now is to seize and destroy.

Tang Wangshu is not only the target of Ji Hanguang's seizure, but also the target of his destruction.

Ji Hanguang knew from the moment he saw Tang Wangshu up close for the first time that no matter how hard Ji Chengying was, his brother loved this woman deeply, and it was the first time in his life that he really felt what love was.

Tang Wangshu's eyes were full of light when he looked at Ji Hanguang, it was the light that would only be produced because of love.

Therefore, at that moment, Ji Hanguang's heart was full of jealousy.

Originally, the throne was his, and the original woman with a pure heart and able to bring true love should also be his.

It was because his mother loved his brother and because of his own filial piety that he pretended to lose the throne to his brother disapprovingly.

He regretted it completely, so he needed to get back everything that belonged to him, and also eradicate all those who stood in his way, so that everyone could see what the real Son of Heaven was like.

Tang Wangshu's worries made him very uneasy, a woman's intuition is so strange, she can feel the direction and change of the overall situation from small things.

Tang Wangshu came back to her senses completely, because she saw the chamberlain carrying a lantern leading Ji Chengying towards this side.

A smile immediately appeared on her face, and although it was sincere, it was also suspicious.

After bathing, after the two lingered, Ji Chengying buried his head in Tang Wangshu's chest.

Tang Wangshu hugged the man he loved, but what he thought about was the man who wanted to tear himself apart in bed a few months ago.

It wasn't a thought, it was a doubt, and it was fear.

Suddenly, Ji Chengying in his arms spoke, "Wangshu, what do you think of King Xi?"

Tang Wangshu was stunned for a moment, and a terrible thought immediately flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but tremble.

This tremor also made Ji Chengying understand that he was not thinking nonsense, but that what he was most worried about had really happened.

Then, there was silence, in the silence, Ji Chengying hugged Tang Wangshu to death, eager to stuff his beloved woman into his body, and at the same time, his younger brother Ji Hanguang and his mind appeared

Tang Wangshu's intimate appearance.

Tang Wangshu also understood that the person who came to Mingshu Palace every night in those months was not Ji Chengying, but Ji Hanguang.

Why is this happening?

Tang Wangshu didn't dare to ask, let alone ask, although the previous tremor betrayed her, she could only pretend that she didn't know anything.

Ji Chengying still hugged Tang Wangshu tightly, although Tang Wangshu was about to breathe, he still refused to let go.

He didn't hate Tang Wangshu, because he chose it himself, and he chose to believe in his younger brother Ji Hanguang.

He regretted saying that to his younger brother before leaving-you can touch all the women in the harem, but Tang Wangshu can't.

It was this sentence that made Ji Hanguang sure that Ji Chengying was really in love with Tang Wangshu.

Tang Wangshu is also the most important person in Ji Chengying's heart, even surpassing the dragon chair.

This is the so-called not loving the country and loving the beauty.

However, on the first night, Ji Han Guangming had already walked in front of Mingshu Palace, but he turned around and went back, why was that?

Is it because he still misses brotherhood? No, it's because he hasn't planned everything yet, it's not time yet.

Therefore, when Ji Hanguang appeared in Mingshu Palace as Ji Chengying and appeared in front of Tang Wangshu, he had already decided to completely take back everything that originally belonged to him, and his first step was to take away Tang Wangshu.

Ji Hanguang didn't care who Tang Wangshu loved in his heart, he was just enjoying the pain of Ji Chengying after learning all this.

Ji Chengying is indeed painful, when the fire of living beings is sealed in his body, after listening to the stories of those living beings all day long, he falls into the abyss of pain, because the world is too bitter.

When the little girl from the Tors Department died in front of him, Ji Chengying completely collapsed, he vowed to change all this, and at the same time, he was also looking forward to returning to the imperial city immediately, because he desperately needed Tang Wangshu's arms.

Only when he was embraced by Tang Wangshu would his pain dissipate.

Unexpectedly, his most trusted brother chose to betray.

Ji Chengying thought about whether to have a heart-to-heart conversation with his younger brother, but his younger brother pretended to be a secret edict to Cai Qianqing, and also took advantage of the exchange of identities to win over Tang Chen, the commander of the Iron Guard, whom he trusted very much.

All this that Ji Hanguang did let Ji Chengying know that there was no point in saying anything now.

They can't go back.
