The morning birds chirped and the cool wind blew against his face, giving him a strange feeling.

Servants came and went, boiling water, cooking, and sweeping the floor. They were extremely busy. When they saw that Chu Tian had woken up, they respectfully greeted him.

Chu Tian laughed and joked around with them for a bit, strolling leisurely in the park. Suddenly, he felt that getting up early seemed pretty good too.

He was taking advantage of the coolness to go out for a walk. Maybe he could meet some girls who woke up early.

The relationship between men and women in the country wasn't as described in the history books of the former world, and it was still relatively open. Women didn't have to go through the requirements of the four virtues, and they didn't just stay close to women's homes all day.

However, just as he walked out of the door, Chu Feng was stunned. This was because a fake brat was walking leisurely outside the gate, taking in the morning air in an exaggerated manner. As he breathed, he muttered, "As expected, it's much fresher than the air in the palace."

Needless to say, the person outside the door was naturally Xuan You. It was her first time leaving the palace so far away. She would usually only be able to wander around the capital in the cramped palaces. Therefore, when she suddenly came to such a place, the air felt much fresher.

Chu was very unhappy. It was said that he had to suffer misfortune to see a woman every day when he woke up.

Just as he was about to retreat, not wanting to have anything to do with this troublesome princess, but it was already too late. Xuan You Ran turned his head to look, and when he saw Chu Mu, who was cowering in preparation to enter, his eyes lit up.

"Brat, why are you up so early?"

Hearing this voice, Chu very much raised his foot and stopped in midair. His face revealed an awkward expression, but his heart was abnormally angry. You can't hide if you don't dare to, but I didn't expect you to not even have the chance to hide.

Embarrassed, Chu Yu turned around. Looking at the bulging cheeks of the Xuan You Ran, he smiled obsequiously. "Seeing that you are so engrossed alone, I thought that I shouldn't disturb you, so I prepared to avoid you for a while."

She tilted her cute little head and said: "Oh, I'm asking why you're up so early. I heard Elder Sister Xi say that you usually have to be threatened by her to get out of bed. Did the sun rise from the west today?"

Chu Tian was speechless. Curiosity killed the cat. It's none of your business if I get up sooner or later. No matter what, I'm still a princess of an empire. You're really shameless to pay so much attention to such small matters.

However, in order to prevent Xuan You from finding out anything, he pretended to sincerely smile and said, "I just arrived. I didn't sleep well, so I got up and went out for a stroll."

Xuan You then clapped his hands and said with a smile, "That's great. I also want to walk around. Please accompany me."

You haven't even asked for my opinion, and I'm still not willing to accompany you. Besides, if you force me to tell a joke again, I'm really done for. Furthermore, I've already told you everything I've told you. Every time I hear you talk about someone, you will beat me up. No matter how good-natured a person is, they won't be in the mood.

Seeing the look of distress on his face, Xuan You Ran seemed to understand his thoughts. He laughed and said, "Don't worry. Don't tell me you're joking. I don't know what your brain is thinking all day. Last night, you talked about those things …"

At this point, he couldn't help but blush. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Yesterday, Chu Tian had almost always told dirty stories. Every time he heard it, the deer in her heart would turn around and laugh happily. Every time he did, he would give this stinky pervert a good beating. After the beating, he didn't feel satisfied, so he forced Chu Dai to continue.

Chu Ji could not help but let out a sigh of relief, patting his chest and said: "This humble subject is extremely grateful."

Xuan You coldly snorted, expressing his contempt for Chu Feng. He didn't seem to be that terrifying.

The distance from the Azure Province to the capital was not very far, so the news from the two places spread very quickly. If it was a fast horse and an anxious one, it would only take half a day.

The matter of Bai Qi teasing the princess on the street had been sent out hastily by Ma Jia the previous night. He had appeared on the Emperor's desk overnight.

When he saw the contents of the paper, the emperor's face immediately darkened. How could he not be angry that his precious gem would encounter such a thing? Thus, with a wave of his brush, he wrote two words: exterminate the Nine Clan!

That night, the Holy Edict flew rapidly to Qingzhou. Huang Bai woke up early in the morning and received the arrival of the messenger. Following that, Bai Qi was brought under the control of the High Scholar as well as a hundred yamen runners. After that, they were escorted to the capital city.

The day of the Bai Clan's destruction could be seen.

The second imperial edict was for Chu Tian.

When Chu Tian was strolling around with the princess, he noticed a group of people walking over from far away. He couldn't help but feel curious, it seemed so early in the morning, these people were all part of the government, could something have happened?

Logically speaking, if something happened in time, it should have been Bai Qi getting into trouble. Why was it that a large group of people came with him as the lead? He vaguely felt uneasy. Did the emperor's elder intend to punish him?

Well, your daughter sneaked out herself. Do you want me to take the blame too?

The minister was a thin old man. He was short, but his face was dignified. He was an official of the Ministry of Rites. Huang Bai followed behind, seemingly fearful of this person.

"Chu very much accepts the decree."

The skinny old man swept his gaze over Chu very's face without getting angry, and said. Chu Tian was speechless. He had no choice but to kneel down unwillingly. Traveling to ancient times was painful, but to always kneel down in front of others. As a man of modern thought, he said he could not accept it.

However, although he was unwilling, he was forced to kneel in order to keep his head.

As expected, the emperor reprimanded him. In the end, he even ordered him to exterminate the bandits within five days. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to return to the capital.

He had originally come as a volunteer to help the imperial government, but now, it was actually his own business. Furthermore, it was tied to his own head. If he didn't hang up properly, it was very likely that his head would roll down and his miserable life would come to an end.

While cursing in his stomach, he would also have to accept the imperial edict with great emotion, saying something against his will. It was so nauseating that even he himself wanted to slap himself a few times.

Huang Bai, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally gotten rid of this troublesome matter. At least this matter had nothing to do with him. He couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Chu Feng. To exterminate these experienced bandits within five days seemed to not be an easy thing. He wished for his own blessings.
