The carriage traveled day and night and soon arrived in the Northwest.
Jiang Tian lives in a large mansion in the Northwest, which was formerly a general's mansion.
Later, Xu Changsheng did not return from the battlefield, so the emperor bestowed the house upon Jiang Tian.
Even the officials who were transferred here later did not dare to covet this house.
Who could blame Jiang Tian for having an official title and the emperor's backing?
This time, Jiang Tian returned to the Northwest with several imperial edicts.
In short, if she wants to rule the Northwest, no one can stop her.
However, Jiang Tian was clearly not very interested in these things.
After she returned to the Northwest, the servants in the mansion celebrated as if it were New Year's Day, their eyes practically closed with smiles.
Jiang Tian was their source of strength; everyone knew that their good life was all thanks to the wife.
Seeing the respect the servants showed to Jiang Tian, Xiao Linghan had nothing to say.
He is currently in a state of inner turmoil and struggle.
He planned to take some secrets into the ground and not tell anyone.
But what Jiang Tian wanted was his absolute honesty.
He was at a loss for what to do.
Having just arrived in the Northwest, Xiao Linghan really didn't have much of a chance to use his skills.
His subordinates were assigned by Jiang Tian to train in the manor's guard team, while Xiao Linghan, the leader, was essentially turned into a caged bird in the manor, spending his days eating, sleeping, and practicing martial arts, without even seeing Jiang Tian once.
Jiang Tian has been really busy lately.
In the capital, she didn't engage in much social interaction, and most of her interactions with others were purposeful. But things were different in the Northwest.
In the Northwest, she was no different from a mountain bandit.
All the military officers stationed here gave her some respect.
Xu Changsheng died a spectacular death. He was annoying when he was alive, but his death brought good fortune to Jiang Tian.
They cannot disrespect the widows of meritorious officials.
Now they heard news from the capital that the emperor greatly favored Jiang Tian, enjoying her discussions of the customs and traditions of the Northwest, and had bestowed upon her numerous gifts, showing how carefully he tried to please her.
Among military generals, Liu Jue was a prominent figure.
He rose to prominence through military achievements; who doesn't know his illustrious name?
Since he's willing to dote on Jiang Tian, they should just go along with it.
As a result, when Jiang Tian returned, countless people sent her invitations.
Through twists and turns, anyone who could be even remotely connected to her would invite her to drinks, flower viewing, or simply to have some fun.
Jiang Tian had many friends in the Northwest. After traveling around and exchanging pleasantries, more than half a month had passed.
For the past two weeks, Xiao Linghan has not seen Jiang Tian.
He remained outwardly indifferent, but he had already made up his mind.
He still wanted to keep that secret.
If too many people know that secret, it could lead to my death.
Xiao Linghan must bear the consequences himself; why should he involve Jiang Tian?
In this way, he would not be able to be absolutely loyal to Jiang Tian.
But he had no choice.
On this day, Xiao Linghan had just finished practicing his swordplay and had drunk a cup of tea.
He was given a small courtyard to live in, a very quiet and peaceful place where no one bothered him. On weekdays, only a servant brought him his meals.
If he wants to leave the mansion, he needs Jiang Tian's permission.
No man with any sense of masculinity would be used to living like this.
But Xiao Linghan remained unperturbed.
He wasn't in a hurry at all, and continued to practice martial arts and eat as usual every day.
Upon seeing Jiang Tian, Xiao Linghan stiffened up again.
