“But I did not expect that Lady Chaoyan, who had been driven out of her family, is engaged with Lord Huai!” the Imperial Master said confusedly. That was what baffled him above all. “But don’t worry Prince Muyi, she said that she will drop it, then it means that it is fine between our countries, just don’t worry,” the Imperial Master said, trying to console an innocent man like Prince Muyi.
As long as he stressed that the whole thing was fine and told him the potential problem within, then he would drop it as well. Also, he already expressed clearly the side he was taking.
He was the Imperial Master, if he showed some support, it would be much easier for him to get the throne!
The Imperial Master showed a peacefully delighted expression on his face.
Prince Muyi frowned, lowered his head and stared directly at him. “Dumbass! You know why Lady Chaoyan dropped this matter? You are ruining my reputation!” Prince Muyi glared at him with teeth clenched. “Helping me get the throne? Who do you think you are?”
As he finished saying these words, Prince Muyi got up. Then he turned to the guards next to him. “You two, take the Imperial Master back to the Feather Mulberry Land tonight and pass this letter to my father.” Prince Muyi gave the letter he had written without any expression, passing it to the guards.
The guards were a little startled, but it was an order from Prince Muyi, so they had to obey. They put away the letter properly and carried the Imperial Master away.
The Imperial Master, who had realized that the Prince was doing this for real, shouted loudly, “Prince Muyi, you can’t do this, you will regret it!”
Prince Muyi did not change his expression. He just watched that man being carried away, then he headed directly back to his own room.
When the Imperial Master’s matter was done, Prince Muyi’s face changed. He hid himself in the blanket and started to cry. He was a young man, after all. He just could not stand it when he ran into a thing like this for the first time.

Sword One was already back at the mansion. She raged against the snowstorm.
When she arrived, Gu Chaoyan was still seated in the chair that was covered by a fox-fur pat. She had a fox-fur coat on her as well. Seeing Sword One, she looked up in confusion. “What took you for so long?”
She asked this, because Gu Chaoyan was aware that Sword One was a very straightforward and efficient girl, despite her mild temper when she was with her.
Gu Chaoyan asked her out of concern.
Sword One hesitated. She had promised Prince Muyi not to reveal the secret, so she could not tell the Elder Miss about the secret.
Sword One thought for a while and said, “On the way home, I noticed that we don’t even have a board for the door, so I was thinking what name we should give to our mansion.”
Hearing these words, Gu Chaoyan put down her book.
She asked seriously, “So we don’t have a board for the mansion?”
Sword One’s face twitched. So Elder Miss had forgotten about that totally? She had thought that Elder Miss had some special idea of her own.
What a big misunderstanding! No one had reminded the Elder Miss!
“Elder Miss, you haven’t told us what to do, so it was never done.” Sword One explained.
Gu Chaoyan answered with a small okay.
Qing ran towards this direction. “Elder Miss, someone called Xia Yinghan is outside asking for you.”
