Chapter 627: Chapter 627: An Ziyi (1)_1

Cai Wei followed Ruyi to the courtyard of the mansion, but she didn’t see the young and beautiful ladies. The maid in charge told her that the ladies had all returned to their own courtyards.

Ruyi, dilemmatically, spoke: "Miss Mu, why don’t you take a stroll in the garden while waiting for the meal to be ready? I’ll come to get you."

Cai Wei nodded, "That would be good."

She was earnestly hoping for a moment alone so that she could better task Brother Ying to help her investigate the truth. Lady Yu’s words just now came as a significant shock and she desperately wanted to know if the human head that Lü Junchen always kept was indeed that of Tianjizi, and was Tianjizi actually dead? If he wasn’t, what were Lü Junchen and Tianjizi planning to do together? Was there some conspiracy?

Ruyi left, and Cai Wei eagerly called out to Brother Ying and sternly instructed him: "Go check the backyard of Lü’s Mansion. I strongly suspect Tianjizi’s head is hidden in Lü Junchen’s room, furthermore, Tianjizi may not be entirely dead yet, they’re possibly performing some dark arts. Be careful, Tianjizi is cunning and crafty, don’t fall into his trap."

Brother Ying, hearing that Tianjizi may be still alive, was so startled that its feathers stood on end. Initially, it was only after Tianjizi’s death that the Gu Poison on its body was neutralized. If Tianjizi were to come back to life, wouldn’t it become his slave again?

"Master, please rest assured, I will definitely help you uncover the truth!"

Brother Ying flew away in a hurry...

Cai Wei, leaning against her shoulders, looked up in the direction of Brother Ying’s flight and sighed; she truly hoped it was not as she had speculated!

Upon this return, she originally intended to quickly deal with the pervert in the town and then rush to Lingbei to assist her man. However, in light of this incident, she might not be able to do so anytime soon.

Nangong Yi should have arrived in Lingbei by now, how was he doing? Had he encountered the Khan of the Meng slaves? It was said that the Khan was not an ordinary person, would Nangong Yi find it difficult to handle him? Would there be any mishaps?

In fact, in her view, this war should not have taken place. Since the land of Lingbei had already been under the control of the Meng people for over a hundred years and peace had always prevailed between the two nations, why not live as it is now? Why insist on reacquiring the land? The Great Jin had enough land to inhabit, why the obsession with this particular one!

War is cruel, it inevitably involves bloodshed and sacrifices. Countless people would die, families would be torn apart and many would be rendered homeless because of this war...

Yet, at the end of the day, this war was waged by men for her. Therefore, even if she had a thousand doubts and grievances about this war, she could never ask him to stop fighting and retreat because retreating without a fight was a defeat. If he were to be defeated, he would lose his standing in the eyes of the Emperor and have nowhere to stand in the court. She was not a saint, she would not sacrifice her man’s pride and future just to avoid the bloodshed and loss in others.

However, within her capacities, she would try to minimize the casualties of this war. If possible, she would like the Meng people to surrender voluntarily and legitimately recognize the Great Jin as their suzerain without having to deploy troops. If that were possible, nothing could be better!

While Cai Wei continued her contemplation, she took a leisurely stroll in the garden. It was the season of May, peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, begonia blossoms, cherry blossoms were all in full bloom in the garden. The fragrance of the flowers was overwhelming and it attracted butterflies and bees, creating a scene of springtime vibrance everywhere.
