Chapter 976: Chapter 776 Who is Nangong Ye?

"Do you remember that formidable General Nangong Ye I mentioned to you before? He has a wife who was saved earlier by the prince of Dashun, Tuoba Lie, but Tuoba Lie fancied General Nangong Ye’s wife and abducted some Dajin citizens to exchange for her. Not only did Nangong Ye refuse to hand her over, but he also released Poisonous Snakes to bite Tuoba Lie. Now, it’s unclear whether he’s dead or alive, and Dashun is taking it very seriously. They are demanding that Dajin hand over Nangong Ye, or else they will go to war again. Alas, the common people will suffer."

"Outrageous!" Nangong Nini suddenly stood up, not even noticing she had fed her son the spoonful of porridge right into his nostrils. Startled, Doudou immediately began to cry. Seeing this, the wet nurse hurried over to hold him and clean him up.

The Crown Prince knew that Nangong Nini always had Dajin’s best interests in mind, but this time he felt her reaction was a bit extreme, so he had the wet nurse take Doudou away, then looked at Nangong Nini, "Nini, what’s the matter with you?"

Nini realized her own outburst and stood up. "Your Highness, don’t you think Dashun has gone too far?"

"Though it is excessive, General Nangong Ye did indeed cause harm."

"To not cause harm, should one let his wife be taken away? Your Highness, if someone threatened you like that, what would you do?"

"Of course, I couldn’t give her up. If anyone wanted my wife, they would have to take my life first!"

"That’s why I think Nangong Ye is not at fault, and furthermore..." Nangong Nini said, "I must tell you the truth, I know Nangong Ye... We played together when we were little, and I am clear about his character. He is definitely an upright and honest man, not one of those sly deceivers."

The Crown Prince chuckled, then pinched Nangong Nini’s cheek. "People who grew up playing together as children often change when they grow up."

"No, others might change, but Nangong Ye won’t. Your Highness, if the Emperor decides to hand over the Crown Prince, could you help me save him?"

The Crown Prince couldn’t help but laugh, "How can I meddle in the affairs of those two countries? What if both countries turned against Dazhou together?"

Nangong Nini immediately became anxious as if she were an ant on a hot pan, "Then what should we do?"

"Nini," the Crown Prince consoled her, "you don’t have to worry too much. Right now, it’s still unknown how the situation will be resolved. How about this, I’ll pay extra attention during this time, and I’ll let you know as soon as there’s news. What do you think?"

Nangong Nini had to smile through her tears, "Alright, you’ve promised me! You must tell me as soon as there’s news."

"Alright, alright, I will."

...

Evening.

The Crown Prince made a special visit to the residence of the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince, who normally loved to play and be mischievous, as well as to wander and travel without a care for state affairs, was caught by the Crown Prince trying to teach a newly received mynah bird to speak.

"Fourth Prince, Fourth Prince," the mynah had already learned this title, but the Fourth Prince wanted to teach it to say "Miss Third," yet the mynah refused to oblige.

The Crown Prince chuckled and then strode further inside, "Fourth brother!"

"Second brother? Oh no, greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince," the Fourth Prince momentarily forgot to switch his address.

"Enough with the formalities," the Crown Prince walked in and started to play with the mynah, "Do you still miss Miss Third that much?"

"Indeed, I do," the Fourth Prince said, "but, elder brother, you surely didn’t come for the sake of my matrimonial concerns, nor to tease the mynah."
