Chapter 854: Chapter 854 On the Grassland

She found it strange that although she had never ridden a horse in her previous life, after time-traveling, she could suddenly ride as if the moment she sat on the horse, she naturally knew how. Could this mean that riding a horse was really that simple, that one could learn without much instruction?

After Nan Feng dismounted, she observed the officials and nobles of the Dashun Dynasty before her.

They had all come out to welcome Tuoba Lie, with one dressed like a king who must be the Emperor of this land, and by his side stood a woman in her finery, about forty-five, still charming, who rushed forward to embrace Tuoba Lie.

"My child, you’re finally back!" The woman was very emotional, then touched Tuoba Lie’s face, "Are you hurt? Let your mother take a closer look!"

Nan Feng almost couldn’t restrain herself; she wanted to separate the two of them. Even though it was a different era, it was still Fu Laoda who inhabited Tuoba Lie’s body. Though that woman was technically the original body’s mother, she had retained her charm, which surely gave Tuoba Lie quite the advantage.

Tuoba Lie shook his head, "Mother, I am not hurt. I have been fighting wars for more than a year and missed you dearly."

It seemed that the customs of the Dashun Dynasty were quite open, with embracing being a common affair.

After Tuoba Lie released his mother, he knelt before the Dashun Emperor, "Your son greets you, Father."

"Rise, it is good you are back," the Dashun Emperor, in his capacity as a father, was not like the Empress, whose joy was apparent on her face.

After greeting his parents, a woman approached Tuoba Lie, about to pay her respects, but was pushed away by him, "There is no need for such formality."

If Nan Feng wasn’t mistaken, this woman must be Tuoba Lie’s current wife, as he had told her everything on the way back and mentioned that he had married his wife before the time travel, completely devoid of affection.

Tuoba Lie then exchanged pleasantry with his brothers who had come to greet him, before gesturing for Nan Feng to come over.

Nan Feng walked over to Tuoba Lie’s side, and since she was unfamiliar with the customs here, she did not offer a formal greeting.

Besides, she had not wanted to come to the Dashun Dynasty in the first place; it was Tuoba Lie who had forced her.

She was not worried about starving to death after time traveling—there was always a way out in this vast world. It was simply that Tuoba Lie, having the numbers, had coerced her into coming, right?

Since she was penniless at the moment, she might as well stay; once the opportunity arose, it wouldn’t be too late to escape.

The fact that Nan Feng did not offer greetings left the Emperor and Empress somewhat perplexed, with the Empress curiously asking, "Lielie, who is this lady?"

"Mother, this lady is named Nan Feng. I met her while at war, and I am very fond of her. I’ve brought her back with the intention of marrying her and making her my wife later on!"

Tuoba Lie had inexplicably changed into a different person two years ago, speaking plainly and openly about whatever was on his mind.

But no sooner had he spoken than everyone behind him was shocked.

Having been there for a month, Nan Feng could understand their language but could not speak it. Hearing Tuoba Lie say he wanted to marry her, she instinctively wanted to refuse, but due to the language barrier, all she could do was shake her head and wave her hands.

Now, Tuoba Lie’s current wife was not someone to be trifled with; the old Tuoba Lie had been a simpleton, merely scraping by each day, so naturally, the wife he had taken was of a similar sort. The moment his wife heard Tuoba Lie’s words, she came rushing out in a blaze of fury, "How dare you be unfaithful! You go off to war for so long without a word, and now you bring back this wild woman the moment you return. See if I don’t deal with you."
