Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress
Chapter 328: Random Encounter with Huo Yuan (1)_1

After being revived, Brother Ying cried and complained incessantly to Cai Wei, "I want revenge, I want revenge..."

Hence, Cai Wei promised it that when the savage sets out to go to the Capital to ask for a marriage from Great Jin Nation, she will assassinate him on his journey and ensure he never returns.

Upon hearing this, Brother Ying finally calmed down and let it go.

Under Nangong Yi’s care, Cai Wei’s family settled in the best inn in Qing County and began to live a comfortable life where they simply stretched out their hands for clothes and opened their mouths for food.

Every day, a skilled old doctor would come to treat Mu Zhongqing, diagnose his symptoms, and prescribe medicine. Mu Zhongqing’s injuries soon started to heal. Naturally, the couple were very grateful to Nangong Yi. In his free time, Nangong Yi would often visit Mu Zhongqing in the backyard to chat and they found their conversations to be very enjoyable, gradually becoming the best of friends.

Wen’er also took the opportunity to get close to Nangong Yi, hoping that he would take him as a pupil. Nangong Yi was very easy to talk to and, seeing Wen’er’s sincere desire to learn, agreed to accept him as a student. Over the next few days, while Mu Zhongqing was recovering, he truly did teach him a few things, almost making Wen’er delirious with happiness. Wen’er’s respect for Nangong Yi grew, and every time he spoke, he always mentioned ’my master’ within three sentences!

During this period, Cai Wei lived quietly in the backyard, avoiding contact with Nangong Yi. It wasn’t that she was being pretentious; she just knew that there was no future for the two of them. The more times they met, the more entangled they would become. Therefore, to the extent that it was possible, she tried not to meet him.

After a few days, Mu Zhongqing’s injuries gradually healed, and Cai Wei’s injuries, under the quiet care of someone, mysteriously healed as well.

One day, Nangong Yi and Mu Zhongqing decided to jointly travel to the Capital on the tenth day.

Cai Wei was not surprised by this decision. As soon as they moved into the inn paid for by Nangong Yi, she had anticipated this outcome.

Moreover, she wasn’t opposed to this decision. She heard that Saknu was also going to the Capital to seek a marriage alliance with the Great Jin Nation soon. Traveling with Nangong Yi could at least dispel any evil thoughts the savage might have towards her. Perhaps, she might even have the chance to take revenge for herself and Brother Ying!

Mu Zhongqing and his wife were very pleased with the arrangement of traveling together with Nangong Yi. After a few days of interaction, the Mu family had gotten familiar with Nangong Yi. Although they weren’t entirely sure of Nangong Yi’s identity, they could tell that he was no ordinary person, but at the very least a noble gentleman from a prominent clan.

They all found it touching that he, a noble gentleman, could live with them, take great care of them, deliberately lower his status, and integrate himself with them.

Of course, Mu Zhongqing and his wife had doubted his motives for going out of his way to foster a good relationship with them. Having seen how his subordinates feared him, they knew full well that this young master was not as gentle and polite as he appeared. But why did he go through the trouble of humbling himself and befriending them so eagerly, even going to the extent of ingratiating himself with them? What did they have that was worth all this effort?

Could it be because of their daughter?

Lady Du once tried to subtly probe her daughter’s feelings, but her daughter unequivocally asserted that she would never marry a nobleman from a large clan, even if he wanted her to be his official wife. Therefore, there was no possibility between her and young master Nangong.

Mu Zhongqing had also tactfully inquired about Nangong Yi’s marriage. Nangong Yi told him that he was destined not to be able to marry the woman he loved in this life, so he didn’t care who he married, and it was all up to his family.
