Chapter 1151: Chapter 1156 Cute Xiang Yun (1)

At dusk, news came from outside the palace, Sun Hu and Sun Bao brothers had returned from Lingbei with their convoy!

Upon hearing this news, Cai Wei hurriedly told Nangong Yi, changed into her regular clothes, and left the palace with Huan Qiu.

She had already instructed the Sun Family brothers that regardless of the importance of the goods, they must make a grand display. Ideally, they should bring back dozens of carts and take a showy lap around the Capital.

The Sun Family brothers obediently returned with forty to fifty carts of goods. After arriving in the Capital, they put on an active show, parading through the streets and attracting the citizens of the Capital to stop and watch until Cai Wei left the palace. The street parade by the Sun Family brothers hadn’t yet ended.

In a nondescript private mansion outside the palace, owned by Nangong Yi, Cai Wei had taken it over as her temporary warehouse to store the goods from Lingbei.

After the parade, the Sun Family brothers brought the dozens of carts to the house designated by Cai Wei. After unloading, they received one thousand taels of silver as a reward from Cai Wei and left joyfully!

Cai Wei briefly checked the goods: there were roughly one hundred eighty younger ginseng roots, over a hundred pieces of leather, including fox skin, otter rabbit skin, snow wolf skin, sable fur, and others. Additionally, there were three to four thousand pieces of glass. Although not a huge amount, considering their convoy had only about a hundred people, bringing back so much was quite impressive.

These three to four thousand pieces of glass, if sold in her glass shop, would likely be sold out in three to five days. Considering she had not visited the Lingbei area in over two months, she decided to go there tonight, bring back the glass stored there, and also check on the progress of the commercial street construction.

Having made up her mind, she sent Huan Qiu to find the shopkeeper of the glass store to transport the glass, while she quickly went into her Space to catch up on some sleep. She would be traveling all night without sleep, and if she didn’t take a nap now, tomorrow would definitely be rough!

After Nangong Yi finished his accounts, he washed up early and ordered a table of Cai Wei’s favorite dishes and liquor. He also had a pot of century-old Osmanthus brew brought in, planning to employ the same old tricks to get her drunk again and fully enjoy the evening with her!

However, as night fell, Cai Wei had still not returned, which made Nangong Yi a bit anxious, so he sent Zhu Yue with a team of Secret Guards to look for her.

Less than one hour later, Zhu Yue returned, but he didn’t bring back Cai Wei, instead he returned with Cai Wei’s maid, Huan Qiu.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has instructed this servant to tell you that she will be out for a few days and will be back in a few days, and asks that you not worry about her!"

Nangong Yi’s face darkened instantly.

She had actually run off, and moreover, she had acted first and reported later, not giving him any chance to refuse, which was really, really intolerable!

Although he was angry, what he thought about more was where she had gone? Was she safe? Would she encounter any danger? When would she return? As for his own disgraceful thoughts, they had long since vanished beyond the Ninth Sky.

In fact, Cai Wei hadn’t gone far; instead, she was still in her Space sleeping. At this moment, the sky had just darkened, and the streets of the Capital were crowded with people. She wouldn’t dare to ride the glaringly bright white tiger around recklessly. If people saw it, frightening the citizens would be unwise.

Not until deep into the night did she wake up fully rested. She then left her Space, mounted the white tiger, and sprinted towards the direction of Lingbei...

It was already the end of Lunar September, and the temperature in the north had noticeably dropped. The further north she went, the colder it got. By the time Cai Wei entered the territory of Bianzhou Prefecture, she couldn’t tolerate the cold anymore. She stopped the white tiger, dashed into her Space, and found a jacket to put on, finally feeling slightly better.

The white tiger could only travel so fast, and even using its maximum speed, it wouldn’t enable one to travel from the Capital to the Capital of Northern Ridge overnight. Therefore, just as dawn was approaching, Cai Wei had the white tiger stop in Qingyun Town.
