Chapter 1021: Chapter 821: Dazhou Wants Ye Ge

"Tsk tsk, such a pity though, this child is destined to be fatherless from birth, as its father has at most another year or so to live."

Upon hearing this, Nan Feng nearly lost her grip on the bowl in her hand. She turned around and looked coldly at Tuoba Lie, "Aren’t you going to tell me that the antidote you provided is fake?"

Tuoba Lie let out another cold laugh, "Why would I do such a thing? I promised to provide you with the second stage of the antidote, and I definitely gave you the second stage. But, Nan Feng, the antidote is divided into three stages. Now, your tall and mighty husband, Nangong Ye, can probably only nod or shake his head. In other words, only above his neck can he move, below the neck he cannot. In this condition, isn’t he living a life worse than death? And yet, at a time when he needs you the most, you are not by his side. If it were me, I would definitely have been broken, probably unable to survive at all."

Nan Feng stood up, flung the bowl from her hand toward Tuoba Lie and cursed, "Tuoba Lie, you bastard!"

Tuoba Lie dodged the bowl just in time and looked at Nan Feng, who was now on the brink of madness with tears streaming down her face; he felt a bit of relief. However, he soon felt annoyed again.

Was this what he wanted?

When Nan Feng’s bowl didn’t hit Tuoba Lie, she looked around and quickly grabbed a stool and threw it at him. Tuoba Lie ran out just in time, and Nan Feng continued to chase after him. When she reached the doorway, she was stopped by Tuoba Lie’s guard. She continued to shout loudly, "Tuoba Lie, you bastard, you despicable lowlife, what kind of prince are you? You are nothing but a Jianghu swindler. Compared to Nangong Ye, you’re not even worthy to carry his shoes..."

Tuoba Lie had already escaped outside the tent, listening to Nan Feng swearing and crying, he felt both angry and sad, but then anger took over again.

In her eyes, was he really so unworthy?

Not even worthy to carry shoes?

Fine, he would show her just how unworthy he was.

...

The news of Dashun’s troops retreating spread throughout Dajin.

However, the news of Nangong Ye’s poisoning was kept under wraps and did not get out.

The Emperor of Dajin closely monitored Nangong Ye’s condition, but upon hearing that Dashun had taken Nan Feng without providing enough antidote, the Emperor was incensed. He banished Tuoba Yun to the Cold Palace and decided he would never see Tuoba Yun again for the rest of his life.

The Emperor arranged for Nangong Ye to be brought back to the Capital City, determined to consult renowned doctors to treat his condition. However, not long after sending out the summons, he received a secret letter from Dazhou.

The letter stated that Nangong Ye might be the grandson of a first-rank minister from Dazhou, who had been lost in Dajin when he was young. It hoped that the Emperor of Dajin would hand over Nangong Ye to Dazhou, where the Emperor of Dazhou would do his utmost to save him and agreed to cede a city to the Emperor of Dajin as a sign of good faith.

The Emperor pondered over the proposal and felt that it was not a bad offer.

Nangong Ye was the adopted son of the former Nangong General. The Emperor had also tasked people to investigate his biological parents but had never managed to clarify them. To think that he was actually from Dazhou.

The Emperor believed this without a doubt. If he were not a grandchild of a senior Dazhou official, why would Dazhou agree to cede a city?

Although the city was not large, the two countries had always had continuous disputes over this piece of land, making it difficult to manage. Now that Dazhou agreed to cede it, why wouldn’t Dajin accept?
