When Jiang Tang heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly, and then he waved the man's palm away as if nothing had happened.
"Well, I probably have gained weight."
As she spoke, she yawned and rubbed her tired face into the soft pillow, looking as if she was about to fall asleep.
When Xiao Yinhan saw this, no matter how much nonsense he said, he was diverted by his heartache. He reached out and touched the girl's long black satin hair, and lowered his voice: "Go to sleep, we will enter the city soon."
Jiang Tang snorted lightly in response and let himself sink into dreamland.
As for whether the man will have random thoughts after she falls asleep, who care~
-
A few days later, the motorcade entered the ancient city as expected.
Because it is located near the Tianshan Mountains, the climate is cold and dry. Most of the houses in the city are made of earthen and masonry buildings to prevent cold and heat insulation. Dome-shaped earth castle-style buildings can be seen everywhere, with thick walls and small windows.
It was already winter, and most of the people in the city had put on thick and warm felt jackets, and their clothing and accessories had a strong ethnic minority style.
Therefore, the appearance of this group of people seemed very eye-catching at this moment.
Jiang Tang casually lifted the car curtain and looked out, casting curious glances at passers-by.
"The imperial court set up a Protectorate Palace here to facilitate management. We will go there directly this time."
Xiao Yinhan casually glanced at the scene outside the car, but there was no movement on his handsome face.
Another reason for going to Duhufu is that with the help of local snakes, it can shorten a lot of time.
As for whether the other party would shirk the blame or refuse to help, Xiao Yinhan never considered this at all.
If he doesn't obey, then beat him until he obeys.
Anyway, along the way, the pent-up anger in his chest became deeper and deeper day by day.
Jiang Tang vaguely guessed what he was thinking, smiled, and lowered the car curtain.
Not long after, the Protectorate arrived.
The Tianshan Duhu Mansion follows the beam architectural style, with its building facing north and south, with cornices and a raised roof. The roof is paved with glazed tiles, making it majestic and domineering.
"Kulban of the Tianshan Protectorate has met His Highness King Rong."
As soon as Xiao Yinhan and his party entered the city, Kurban received the news and was about to go to greet them. He learned that the other party was coming straight to the Governor's Mansion, so he led his officials to wait outside the mansion.
This Tianshan Protector is a mixture of local ethnic minorities and Daliang people. He has deep features, a high nose, and a slightly curly beard. He is neatly dressed in Daliang court clothes.
At least judging from the current attitude, it is very respectful.
Jiang Tang followed Xiao Yinhan out of the car, wearing a beautiful veil covering his face. He was looking at the majestic Protector's Mansion with slightly curious eyes, when he heard a man's voice in his ear:
"After a tiring journey, Tangtang went to the Governor's Mansion to rest first. I have something to discuss with Lord Protector alone."
Although Kurban is not an authentic Daliang native, he lived in Daliang for ten years in his early years and is very familiar with the "rumors" about King Rong.
Suddenly seeing him speak so softly and considerately to a woman completely subverted his imagination, and he couldn't help but be very curious about Jiang Tang's identity.
I also have some doubts about the rumors: this prince does not seem to be as violent and willful as the rumors say.
Jiang Tang nodded and Wen Sheng agreed.
But even though she lowered her voice and spoke, Kurban, who was closer, still heard her.
His eyes lit up, and two words flashed in his mind: The sounds of nature!
Then this "Sound of Heaven" was escorted into the Protector's Mansion by the guards.
-
"Madam, please."
A maid in bright ethnic costumes led the way, Jiang Tang followed behind her, and behind her were guards with swords and solemn expressions.
There was no way, there were too many murders along the way, and everyone had developed the habit of being vigilant.
But even so, something happened -
When he turned around the corridor and walked a few steps, he found that it was eerily quiet around him. Jiang Tang stopped for a moment.
When she turned around, she realized that the guard who had been following her for some time had disappeared.
In the huge deserted corridor and garden, she and the unfamiliar maid from the Protectorate were the only ones left.
For a moment, vigilance surged into heartache. She calmly held down the dagger hidden at her waist and said on guard, "Who are you? Where are you taking me?"
"who I am?"
The person in front seemed to chuckle slightly, and the voice sounded strangely familiar.
When she turned her head to reveal that beautiful and familiar face, Jiang Tang felt a vague feeling of settling down.
In fact, even the nervousness just now was put away, and a somewhat relaxed and casual smile appeared on his face: "It turns out to be Concubine Fang, it's been a long time since I last saw you."
"It's been a long time. But next time, it will be goodbye forever."
As she spoke, she suddenly pulled out a strange wavy blade and slashed at Jiang Tang's neck without any concealment.
But at this critical moment, she heard a "dang" sound, her wrist went numb, and the blade of the knife was cut into two pieces in the middle.
Then, in Fang Bin's surprised eyes, a thin and slender figure stood in front of the girl quietly and quietly, looking at her with a pair of cold eyes without emotion.
As if to say, if you dare to hurt her even an inch, I will kill you.
As if he didn't notice the woman's sudden ugly expression, Jiang Tang smiled softly:
"In order to kill me, the empress actually went out in person, which really flattered Jiang Tang."
This also proved their previous guess that she was at the end of her rope.
"It's just..." Jiang Tang paused deliberately, glanced at the young man standing in front of him with his beautiful eyes, and said what he said was so infuriating that it cost him his life: "With Nan Xing here, it will be difficult for the empress to kill me.
.Thank you for your gift.”
Nan Xing hasn't reacted yet, but Fangbi is so angry that she wants to kill someone with her back teeth: "You, don't get too proud too soon!"
Jiang Tang nodded obediently: "I listen to your Majesty, I'm not satisfied."
Fangbi, why is my chest even more blocked?
There was a faint noise in the distance, as if the abandoned guard was coming to find her. Fangbi frowned, knowing that time was running out.
She couldn't help but glared at the little beast who was eating inside and outside, and looked at Jiang Tang:
"I knew I couldn't kill you before I came here. I came here to make a deal with you."
Jiang Tang was slightly surprised when he heard this. He was just about to say, "You can't negotiate a deal if you kill me. Guess whether I believe it or not" when he heard the woman say:
"As long as you are willing to leave King Rong, no matter what the deal between you and that thing is, I can make it for you, and I guarantee that it will be better than it. Are you willing?"
These words were beyond Jiang Tang's expectation. She couldn't guess what Concubine Fang meant, so she smiled and said, "Oh, why do you think I will believe you?"
"I can swear as a witch that if I break my oath, I will be shattered into pieces and will never be reincarnated!" When she said this, the woman's eyes were cloudy and crazy.
Not like a witch, but like a witch.
In front of Jiang Tang, the originally expressionless young man unconsciously clenched the hilt of his sword when he heard these words, with a bit of nervousness that he didn't even notice.
And in this depressing and dignified atmosphere, Jiang Tang burst out laughing.
Fangbi's voice was sharp and dark: "Why are you laughing?"
