Chapter 193
Jiang Tong responded to Xiao Yun with silence, she didn't know what to say to him.

She couldn't persuade him, and couldn't shake his plan to continue creating disasters.She always felt that she was capable and could make a difference, but in front of Xiao Yun, those things of hers had become insignificant and low-level.

Jiang Tong felt powerless, so he simply turned around and lay back on the bed, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Xiao Yun stood at the door and waited for a while, but there was still no sound inside. He put the food box on the flower pot stand at the door, and said softly: "Even if you annoy me, you should eat something. I'll put it at the door, you Remember to eat."

Jiang Tong closed his eyes helplessly, pressed his hand on the wound, and forced himself to sleep.

After returning to Yingdu, Jiang Tong still ignored Xiao Yun. If he didn't stop his hand for a day, she would ignore him for a day.

But Xiao Yun is like a ghost, even if he knows that Jiang Tong will be angry, he will do his own way and do it right.

This made Jiang Tong extremely depressed, and the relationship between the two fell to freezing point.

Until Xiao Chuan called the two together.

Xiao Chuan looked back and forth between the two, and said slowly: "You two, what's going on recently."

Jiang Tong pursed her lips, she didn't want Xiao Chuan to worry, so she said, "It's nothing, why are you asking that, father."

Xiao Chuan glanced at Jiang Tong, and asked Xiao Yun: "What have you been up to lately?"

Xiao Yun kept bowing his head: "It's just some trivial matters, which are not worth mentioning."

Xiao Chuan rubbed his hands: "That is to say, the two of you are fine recently."

Jiang Tong nodded, feeling guilty for a while, not daring to look up at Xiao Chuan.

Xiao Chuan raised his eyebrows: "That's just right. I originally wanted to go back to Jingzhou to handle this matter, but the Holy Spirit granted the Ninth Princess Zhao'er. Therefore, it would be inappropriate for the two of you to go back to Jingzhou to handle the marriage. Why don't you take advantage of this?" During a period of time, getting engaged in Yingdu has achieved many successes in one fell swoop."

Jiang Tong blinked in surprise, she just didn't expect to get engaged so soon.

"Father, this...isn't right." Jiang Tong hesitated.

When Xiao Yun beside him heard this, his body trembled almost imperceptibly.

Xiao Chuan was also puzzled: "Oh? What's wrong?"

Jiang Tong glanced at Xiao Yun who was stiff from the corner of his eye, and said intentionally: "Father, Zhongzhou has experienced a severe drought for months, and the Holy One is devastated. Is it not good for us to engage in a wedding at this time?"

If Xiao Yun doesn't stop for a day, she won't compromise for a day.

Xiao Chuan blinked and took a deep breath, what Jiang Tong said was not unreasonable.

"It's better to wait until the disaster is over. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? I believe that the sage is in a state of distress here, and he won't take care of our business." Jiang Tong continued.

Xiao Chuan stretched his brows: "That's fine, but the Holy Majesty has already made Zhao'er and the Ninth Princess be engaged, and you two can't fall behind them, so let's just hold a simple ceremony in the mansion for a few days. How about just our family?"

Xiao Chuan had spoken to such an extent, it was obviously unwise for Jiang Tong to say no again, she glanced at Xiao Yun quietly, she wanted to hear his attitude.

"Father, no." Xiao Yun refused.

Jiang Tong's heart sank.

"Why not?"

Xiao Chuan felt strange in his heart, what happened to these two children?On weekdays, the good ones are like a person, almost inseparable every day, even when Jiang Tong goes to the East Palace and leaves the East Palace, Xiao Yun personally picks him up and sees him off.

The corners of Xiao Yun's eyes trembled slightly, and he said: "Boy...Hay'er thinks that Sui Sui will be wronged by this, and besides, brother Zhao is not engaged in the past few days, and there is no rush. It is better to wait for Zhongzhou to settle down completely, and we will discuss it later."

Both of them said so, Xiao Chuan couldn't help but agree.

Jiang Tong got the answer he wanted, but he couldn't be half happy.

Even if she delays the wedding date to threaten Xiao Yun, it won't work.

Sad and puzzled at the same time.

Jiang Tong felt that she was not too stupid, so she decided to observe Xiao Yun secretly, stop fighting with him, and take a good look at what he wanted to do.

First came the earthquake, then the ferocious beast disturbed the people, followed by the severe drought in Zhongzhou, and there was no rain in the whole summer.

At such a critical moment, the saintess should take the lead in offering sacrifices to Qi Yu, but Xiao Mi'er's current situation clearly cannot make it to such an occasion.

After much deliberation, the emperor decided to summon Jiang Tong.

Jiang Tong knelt on the floor tiles of Qianyuan Hall, feeling really funny in his heart, he has only been in Ying for more than two months, and the number of times he entered the palace almost surpassed that of Xiao Chuan.

"I don't know why the Holy Majesty called the minister's daughter." The emperor was silent for a long time, and Jiang Tong could only speak.

Only then did the emperor open his old eyes, and said: "There have been disasters for several months, you are right."

Thinking of what Xiao Yun had done, Jiang Tong felt heartbroken, kowtowed and said, "My daughter is guilty!"

"Convicted? Your prediction is accurate, what is the crime? Cough cough cough..." The emperor coughed violently, his old face turned red.

Jiang Tong stared at the emperor anxiously, for fear that the eunuch next to him was too anxious to let the emperor go and just passed over.

After finally waiting for the emperor to calm down a bit, Jiang Tong asked worriedly, "How is your Majesty?"

The emperor waved his hand tremblingly: "No problem. Although the widow is the Son of Heaven, he is nothing but a mortal after all, birth, old age, illness and pain are all normal."

Looking at the emperor's almost ancient face, Jiang Tong felt uncomfortable for a while.

"The reason why I called you here today is because of the continuous disasters, I want to ask someone to replace me Qi Yu."

Jiang Tong immediately said: "That is naturally the most suitable for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The emperor shook his head: "The crown prince has the prince's work to do, but what I want to do is to appoint a prophet, to offer sacrifices to heaven and rain on my behalf, and to appease the people."

Jiang Tong's heart was shocked suddenly, she only heard the word "prophet".

"My lord, you..."

"Yes, since you can tell everyone about the disaster in advance, naturally only you can bear this status, and you are originally from my Xiao royal family. This status is perfect for you." The emperor was far-sighted, his eyes flickering Jiang Tong couldn't read the deep meaning at his age.

"But Your Majesty..." Jiang Tong moved his lips, but still couldn't speak.

"what?"

"Nothing." Don't you have the slightest doubt?
"That's all." The emperor was exhausted: "The decree of canonization will soon spread throughout Yingdu, probably in the next day, you will go to the altar to Qi Yu on behalf of Tian Ziyi."

Jiang Tong couldn't resist the order, so he could only knock his head on the ground.

Xiao Yun's goal has been achieved.

On the way back home, Jiang Tong had only this sentence in his mind.

But why, the complicated feeling in her heart has not been relieved in the slightest.

Jiang Tong pinched his forehead very upset.

After returning home, the maid took a letter to her.

"What is this?" Jiang Tong asked.

The maid respectfully lifted the wax seal, took out the letter paper and handed it to Jiang Tong: "Return to Princess, it's a letter from Xuan Qi."

Xuan Qi?

Jiang Tong got a little more energetic, did Dai Wen write back to her?

Jiang Tong slowly unfolded the thin letter paper.

It was written by Zhen Shaoshi to Jiang Tong. The content of the letter was very simple. Greetings to Jiang Tong and Xiao Yun, and some recent information about Xuanqi, and finally said that Dai Wen was not in Xuanqi, so the letter was received by Zhen Shaoshi. Mistake.

Jiang Tong's heart skipped a beat, Dai Wen didn't return to Xuanqi?
