Chapter 1175: Chapter 1181: Nangong Yi’s Three Obediences and Four Virtues (1)

"Rebellion, rebellion, these dog slaves dare to disobey my orders!"

Nangong Yi dramatically patted the table, presenting a visage of imperial fury.

Cai Wei laughed and said, "Just now, Yang Yong said that I alone could take care of you completely!" With that, she advanced, holding a tray in her hand, on which nestled a steaming green jade measure.

"Your favorite, Eight Parts Hot tea, try it and see if it’s good?" After she spoke, she passed over the green jade measure.

The man did not take the green jade measure but merely glanced at Cai Wei, snorting coldly, "So, you know to come back, do you!"

Cai Wei, fully aware she was at fault, said in an extremely pleasant manner, "Now that the errand is done, naturally I should return home. Otherwise, leaving the Emperor alone in the bedroom would be pitiful indeed. I couldn’t bear it in my heart!"

Nangong Yi let out a cold snort and said, "What’s so pitiful about being alone in the bedroom? Without anyone to tempt me, I’ve been cultivating my mind and body these past days, gathering energy, strengthening my foundation. I feel much stronger than before!"

"Oh! Is that so!"

Seeing that he was still stubbornly insisting, Cai Wei deliberately put on an apologetic expression, "If I’d known this, I wouldn’t have rushed back. There’s still plenty to do in Lingbei; how about I go back right now? After all, the Emperor wants to cultivate his body and bolster his foundation, he doesn’t need me to accompany him!"

After saying this, she placed the tea tray on the dragon case and turned to leave!

"Stop, where do you think you’re going!"

Nangong Yi cried out without a second thought, and in his urgency, he stood up, almost rushing forward to grab her.

Cai Wei turned around, blinking innocently, "Back to Lingbei, why? Does the Emperor have other matters?"

Nangong Yi, after struggling to find an excuse, eventually said, "Without you, the Imperial Harem is unmanageable and has become a mess. Besides, three days from now is the Empress Dowager’s birthday. How can you rest assured leaving such a big event in the hands of that little girl Zhao Gui? If she bungles it, it’s our royal reputation that will be lost."

Cai Wei pursed her lips, restraining the laughter that threatened to burst forth, and said, "Zhao Gui is two years older than me. Moreover, she grew up inside the Palace; she should be more than capable of handling a Birthday Feast. However, it wouldn’t be good for me to be absent during the Empress Dowager’s birthday, so I will stay until it’s over and then leave!"

Hearing that she was no longer leaving, Nangong Yi’s complexion improved a bit, though he still looked displeased. He took a sip of the flower tea Cai Wei brought, scornfully saying, "What is this concoction? I only like Snow-capped Jade, not this mishmash of flower teas!"

While he complained, he had already drained the jade measure of flower tea.

Cai Wei, stifling her laughter, said, "This is a flower tea so precious that even a thousand gold couldn’t buy it. Even though the Emperor rules the four seas, he probably couldn’t purchase such a pack of tea. But since you like Snow-capped Jade, I’ll go and brew a pot for you right away. Just wait here!"

Seeing she was leaving, Nangong Yi quickly walked out from behind the Dragon Desk, saying, "No need, it’s already past the Second Watch. I’m going to retire for the night." With that, he headed straight for the bedroom in the Eastern Room.

Cai Wei followed him, demurely and obediently, the very picture of a submissive daughter-in-law.

Once in the Inner room, Nangong Yi went to the Cleansing Room for a bath, while Cai Wei dutifully made the bed. She then picked some fresh fruit from Space and arranged it on the round table in the center of the room. Just as she finished, the man emerged from the Cleansing Room. He was only in bright yellow underwear, the sleeves of his undergarments embroidered with a pattern of a five-colored golden dragon. His lower body was still damp, the silk trousers clinging to his legs, almost revealing the firm and sturdy long legs beneath.
