Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1348 - 1355: Advice (5)

Cai Wei said, "Yi, don’t be anxious yet. Think about it, when I returned to my parents’ house last night, few people knew about it. How then did the assassins find out? I believe there must be something fishy going on here!"

After speaking, she then asked the foolish assassin, "Who told you that I returned to my parents’ house last night? Who is your inside connection here in Great Jin?"

The assassin mechanically stated, "Following the boss’s orders, we obey the boss’s commands..."

The boss he mentioned was killed by a white tiger last night, and now the only assassin left alive is him. It seems that the clue has been cut off. However, Cui Wei was not discouraged. She released Brother Ying to gather information and find out who the inside connection in Great Jin was. Although she harbored no ill intentions toward others, she would certainly not indulge anyone plotting to kill or harm her!

Nangong Yi gritted his teeth and said, "Once I return to the palace, I will immediately gather the troops and flatten the cursed Xianbei and Miaojiang, capture that scoundrel Helan Qing and that slut Tuotuo alive, and have them torn to pieces by a thousand cuts!"

Cai Wei held his hand and gently said, "Yi, for my sake alone, would you plunge countless people into the ravages of war, with families torn apart and lives destroyed? Is this the act of a wise ruler?"

Nangong Yi irritably said, "I don’t care about being labeled a foolish or wise ruler. My empress was almost killed. If I just endure and withstand, would I still be a monarch, let alone a man?"

This was the first time he lost his temper in front of her. Though Cai Wei felt uncomfortable, she understood it was all because of her. She comforted him, "Don’t worry. Once Brother Ying returns and everything is clarified, even if you want to forgive them, I won’t agree. However, since it was their doing, let them be responsible. It’s not worth mobilizing a large army and provoking a war between nations, displacing the common people. Rest assured, without moving a single soldier, I still have ways to kill them!"

Nangong Yi looked at her for a long time and sighed, "Wei’er, you are my wife. When you are wronged, I should stand up for you! But..."

"There are no buts!" Cai Wei interrupted him. "We, husband and wife, are one. Don’t distinguish between mine and yours."

Finishing her speech, she hugged his neck, raised her tender white little face, and teased with a smile, "Besides, between us, it has always been you clinging onto my coattails. It’s only logical for me to do a bit more!"

Nangong Yi was originally feeling depressed, but her words made him laugh. He pinched her nose and said with sympathy, "You have been wronged, yet I can’t personally avenge you. My heart... hurts!"

Cai Wei buried her head in his chest and mumbled: "This is not a big deal for me alone. I can handle them completely. Even if I can’t, I wouldn’t want you to start a war over it. If a war breaks out because of me, think of how many people will die, how many families will be ruined, how empty the national treasury will become, and how production will fall or regress. If that day really came, I would truly become a disaster-bringing empress, and you a tyrannical foolish ruler. If that were the case, I’d rather be killed by them than have you seeking revenge!" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Nangong Yi held her and said gravely, "I understand. But that damned Helan Qing and Tuotuo, definitely do not spare them!"

Cai Wei laughed and said, "Don’t worry, without your words, I won’t let them off either!"

As the two were speaking, the chief steward Chen Shangxi from the Empress Dowager’s side arrived.

"Your Majesty, Empress, all the young ladies came yesterday. The Empress Dowager sent me to ask if you and the empress would like to visit and help with the selection?"
