Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress
Chapter 1048 - 1050: Xiang Yun’s Grand Wedding (7)

Xiang Yun nodded vigorously, her round eyes sparkling as if with water droplets...

The next day, Xiang Yun and Mo Zili had their grand wedding. The Mu family people had gone to Duke Li Guo’s Mansion early in the morning to celebrate the wedding. As per the tradition, Cai Wei, being someone soon to be married herself, could not go and had to stay home. With nothing else to do, she went to grow medicines in her space.

’Yishan Hall’ Medical Center had been open for many days now and was not making money. It was operating at a loss. There were too many poor people in the Capital, and the value of the medicinal materials distributed for free every day far exceeded the earned money. Therefore, to reduce losses, Cai Wei specifically opened up a space to grow various common types of medicines.

Chang Mei and Brother Ying helped out at the side. Brother Ying suggested, "Master, let’s brew some more liquor later. We have plenty of fruits and flowers here anyway."

Cai Wei lifted her head and glanced at him, saying, "There’s no need to brew more. Drinking too much is not good. It can harm the body, disrupt temperament, and even change a person’s nature, leading to corruption!"

Brother Ying looked at the sky and said, "I am a bird."

Cai Wei lowered her head and continued her work, saying, "If you’re a bird, you should be eating insects. You won’t get any portion of the mandarin duck hotpot at noon."

Chang Mei snickered at the side, taking pleasure in Brother Ying’s misfortune. Brother Ying said, feeling wronged, "Master, you shouldn’t treat me this way. I want to eat hotpot..."

Cai Wei said, "Go to Duke Li Guo’s Mansion and see what they are up to, and whether anyone is causing trouble or something. Report it to me if you see anything. If you behave well, naturally, there will be a portion of hotpot for you. If you behave poorly, well..."

"If he behaves poorly, let him eat insects!" Chang Mei chimed in.

Before she could finish speaking, Brother Ying had already flown out with a ’flapping’ sound...

Qing County, Xiaoyaoshan Manor

These past few days, Housekeeper Daru had been in a state of high tension. The woman favored by the Great Khan had escaped right under his eyelids, and the people sent to capture her were still unaccounted for. Fortunately, he had discovered the woman’s background—she had supported the madam of the Pear Blossom Brothel to set up a brothel in Northern Ridge and had told the children at the Nursing Homes that she would return next month. This indicated that he still had a chance to capture her; otherwise, the Great Khan would surely flay him alive!

However, the Great Khan had indeed lost his temper because he hadn’t captured the woman. Had it not been for the help of the Great Khan’s mother, Madam Xiao, he would probably no longer be alive. Therefore, he had to focus all his attention, closely monitor the Nursing Homes, send people to the Capital of Northern Ridge, and even set up spies at the home of County Magistrate Shen. He himself was keeping an eye on some of Qing County’s larger brothels, even living inside to wait for that woman...

Great Khan Saknu, infuriated by Cai Wei’s escape, even contemplated going to Qing County himself to capture her, but before he could depart, two uninvited guests arrived at the palace, holding him back.

The visitors were the Prince of Great Jin Nation, but apparently not anymore. He had lost an arm and had thinned down significantly, looking worn and weary.

With Nangong Shi was a tall and thin man in his thirties, with a cold expression. He spoke little but gave off an unfathomable air.

Saknu, not one for pleasantries, burst into laughter upon seeing the abolished prince Nangong Shi and unabashedly stared at Nangong Shi’s arm, taking pleasure in his misfortune, and asked, "What? Prince, was Nangong Yi that pretty boy too much for you?"
