Chapter 910: Where is Nangong Ye?

Chapter 910: Chapter 910: Where is Nangong Ye?

Nangong Ye had said he would wait there for her, so she had to go.

She couldn’t really understand why she trusted him so much, even though the original owner of the body was Nangong Ye’s wife—it had nothing to do with her.

But the desire to see him in her heart was incredibly strong.

The marketplace hadn’t been very lively at first, but later it gradually became bustling, with more and more people and an ever-increasing range of goods for sale, from sheepskin to horse milk to wheat and so on.

Yet Nan Feng had set up her stall for several days in a row and still hadn’t seen Nangong Ye.

What was going on?

Was it because someone was tailing her, or had her strong attitude that day scared him off?

But she always felt that Nangong Ye wouldn’t give up on her, and it was necessary for her to take a gamble.

She’d bet on ten days; if he didn’t show up after ten days, she would let it go.

...

Lu Jianxi walked up to the outside of Brother Ye’s camp, and upon seeing her, the gatekeeper was about to salute, but Lu Jianxi waved her hand, indicating that they didn’t need to salute.

"Is General Nangong inside?" Lu Jianxi asked one of the guards.

The guard nodded: "Yes, and there are several other generals in there too."

"Oh? So, they are discussing matters?"

"I’m not sure, General Lu," the guard replied.

Lu Jianxi was about to walk away after hearing this; after all, she was no longer a general, and if they were discussing matters, then it must be confidential. She couldn’t intrude.

But just as she was about to turn around, she heard Brother Ye’s voice from inside: "Is it Jianxi who has come?"

Lu Jianxi’s heart leaped with joy. Since Brother Ye had called for her, it meant she could go in.

Lu Jianxi lifted the curtain and entered. Inside, as expected, several people were gathered around Brother Ye—it looked like they were discussing matters.

"What are you discussing?" Lu Jianxi asked as she stepped inside.

Li Ze, blunt and straightforward, replied, "We are discussing how to rescue General Nangong’s wife."

"General Nangong’s wife?" Lu Jianxi was shocked. "Has General Nangong’s wife been found?"

At the same time, her heart sank, and her lips began to tremble.

She seemed to have already anticipated the scene of parting with Brother Ye.

But she quickly suppressed the pain: "Where is she? Has she fallen into the hands of villains? How do we rescue her?"

Li Ze explained: "Lady Nangong is currently on the Dashun side, detained by the Second Prince. For some reason, she doesn’t remember anything from before. General Nangong has been to see her, and she doesn’t even remember him. I guess it must be because of the injury she sustained when she fell down the mountain..."

Lu Jianxi felt her hands and feet begin to tremble: "Is it really Lady Nangong?"

"There’s no mistake," Brother Ye began to speak, sitting very straight, which made his attitude seem even more resolute: "It’s definitely my wife, and she must have an inkling too, otherwise she wouldn’t have listened to me and gone to the marketplace to sell things these past two days. But I’ve secretly investigated, and many of the people in that marketplace are Tuoba Lie’s men. Some are disguised as vendors, secretly watching her. If I forcefully took her, I’m not sure I could defeat so many people."

Li Ze said: "Yes, the two nations have only just started to mend relations, and General Nangong can’t send troops to take her by force. It’ll have to be a few of us, disguised as commonfolk, to snatch her back. A fierce battle is inevitable. No, it’s not the battle that’s frightening, but the fear that if someone is hurt by accident, it will give the Dashun’s folks another reason to start a dispute. Keep in mind that the last war started over a border conflict."
