Su Yuntian knew that Mu Jin and Nangong Min had fled the capital together, simply to find Mu Weihou and his son at Yanmen Pass.
So, taking advantage of the conflict between Beiqi and Dongyue, he went to Yanmen Pass as a peace envoy, just to find Mu Jin.
However, when he arrived at Yanmen Pass, he did not meet the person he longed for.
But it doesn't matter. As long as Mu Weihou and his son are here, Mu Jin will find them one day.
Originally, he wanted to persuade Mu Jin to return to his side through Mu Weihou, but to his surprise, even when he threatened Mu Yan and the entire Mu family army, Mu Weihou remained unmoved.
Then he had no choice but to accuse the Mu family of treason and their father of colluding with the enemy, and arrest the Mu family of treason first. He didn't believe that Mu Jin would just stand by and watch his father and brother suffer.
As long as Mu Jin returns to his side, what does it matter if the methods are despicable? The result is what he wants.
To Su Yuntian's surprise, Su Yi joined in alongside Mu Jin.
Su Yuntian had noticed that Su Yi's attitude towards Mu Jin was different when he was in the capital. However, no matter what, Mu Jin was still his sister-in-law.
Furthermore, he had warned Su Yi, thinking that Su Yi's interest in Mu Jin was just a passing fancy, since there were rumors that Su Yi's interest in any woman would not last more than a month.
But now, seeing the overly familiar way Su Yi and Mu Jin were bewildering him, he couldn't help but feel flustered.
Su Yi looked at Su Yuntian with a grin and said, "Is there anything else, Third Brother?"
Su Yuntian ignored Su Yi and looked directly at Mu Jin, saying softly, "Ah Jin, I have something to tell you. Please come with me to the tent to discuss it in detail."
Mu Jin's face was as cold as she looked at Su Yuntian. Ever since she learned that Su Yuntian had framed the Mu family, she had wanted nothing more than to pounce on him and tear him to pieces the moment she saw him.
However, that wouldn't clear the Mu family's name, so she kept enduring it.
Seeing Mu Jin talking to Su Yuntian, Su Yi said softly to Mu Jin, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. I will take you away right now."
Upon hearing this, the guards beside Su Yuntian immediately raised their spears and aimed them directly at Su Yi and Mu Jin, as if they would pounce on Su Yi if he dared to leave with Mu Jin.
Mu Jin broke free from Su Yi's grasp and glared angrily at Su Yuntian.
"Perfect timing, I also have something to discuss with you."
Su Yuntian then smiled and gestured for Mu Jin to proceed.
Su Yuntian led Mu Jin and Su Yi toward his tent, but when they reached Su Yuntian's tent, Su Yuntian stopped Su Yi.
"I have important matters to discuss with Ah Jin, so please wait here, Fifth Brother."
Su Yi still had a playful smile on his face: "You guys chat, I'll just stay silent from the side."
After Su Yi finished speaking, he tried to walk inside, but this time Mu Jin stopped him.
"I'll go in with him, you just wait for me outside."
Su Yi was worried about leaving Su Yuntian and Mu Jin alone together. He knew that when they were doing disaster relief outside the capital, he had personally witnessed Su Yuntian sneak into Mu Jin's tent, and in the moment he hesitated, Mu Jin was almost assaulted by Su Yuntian.
Mu Jin knew that Su Yi was worried about her, and said gently, "If there's anything, I'll call you in."
Su Yuntian couldn't stand the familiarity between Mu Jin and Su Yi, but he endured it for Mu Jin's sake.
Mu Jin followed Su Yuntian into the tent. She stood in the middle of the tent and watched as Su Yuntian poured her a cup of tea, but she did not take it.
Su Yuntian smiled gently at Mu Jin: "What, are you afraid I'll poison you?"
Mu Jin ignored Su Yuntian's question and coldly said, "You framed my father and brothers for colluding with the Mu family army and betraying the country."
Su Yuntian's eyes flickered slightly; Mu Jin's words were an affirmation, not a question.
Su Yuntian walked to the side, put down his teacup, and looked directly at Mu Jin.
"Ah Jin, the evidence of the Mu family army's treason is still under investigation. It is too early to say that the Mu family army has treasoned at this time."
"So, what are your conditions?"
Mu Jin's directness made Su Yuntian unable to look directly at her. He paused for a moment, then smiled and spoke to Mu Jin.
"If you return to my side and treat me with the same devotion as before, then I promise you that for the rest of my life, there will only be you by my side, and no other woman will ever appear in my life."
Mu Jin sneered: "What if I don't?"
Upon hearing Mu Jin's words, Su Yuntian's smile gradually faded.
“Ah Jin, you should know that I don’t want to force you like this, but I can tell you very clearly that as long as you agree to return to the Yunwang Mansion with me and stay with me, then not only your father and brothers, but even the entire Mu family army can continue to enjoy the glory of the past, and even be more glorious than before.”
Mu Jin scoffed and said, "I never knew you wielded such power that a single word from you could decide the fate of the entire Mu family army."
Su Yuntian was not annoyed by Mu Jin's sarcasm.
"Ah Jin is unwilling to follow me, yet she is so close to that纨绔 (playboy) outside. Does she think my power and ability are not great enough?"
"Ah Jin, let me tell you, I can give you more than Su Yi can give you. As long as you stay with me, one day I will make you the most honored woman in the world."
The most noble woman in the world is none other than the empress of a country. Su Yuntian dared to utter such rebellious words, which shows that he has great ambitions. Moreover, he doesn't care if Su Yi and Mu Jin know that he loves you.
Mu Jin chuckled softly, "Su Yuntian, I really want to know, you used to be so eager to abandon me to Hanshan Village to fend for myself, so why are you pretending to be so affectionate with me now? Don't you think it's ridiculous of you?"
