Chapter 930: Chapter 932: Mo Ziqi’s Promise (4)

Helen Xue collapsed into the chair, her head buzzing. She had married Nangong Shi as his official wife, and if Nangong Shi were to ascend the throne, he would have to crown her Empress. Otherwise, he would face the disgrace of demoting his wife to concubine and would be unable to face her imperial father and mother.

But why had he agreed to make someone else the Empress? Surely one couldn’t have two empresses. That was impossible!?

Suddenly, she thought of another terrifying possibility: maybe it wasn’t impossible for a man to make someone else empress—if she... were dead!

At this thought, Helen Xue felt as if a bucket of ice had been dumped over her head, chilling her to the core. Nangong Shi actually wanted her dead, he actually contemplated killing her?

Although she hated Nangong Shi for causing the death of her unborn child, for favoring his concubine over her, for his coldhearted betrayal, she had never thought of killing him! After all, a night of marriage owed a hundred days’ grace; they had once shared loving days together, had once spent many sweet years together. But now, to marry another woman, he actually wanted to kill her, actually wanted to kill her...

Helen Xue sat dazedly in the chair, feeling as if her heart had shattered into fragments, her blood all drained...

"Heh, Nangong Shi, since you are heartless, don’t blame me for being ruthless..."

...*...*...

At night, the villa in the suburbs of the capital was spookily quiet. During such critical times, no one was in the mood to do anything; as soon as it turned dark, everyone in the manor quietly went to sleep.

Thinking that her parents were asleep, Cai Wei secretly got up and leapt out of the window to the outside.

On the roof, Chai Feng lay silently on a thin blanket. Seeing Cai Wei suddenly jump out, he hastily got up and leaped from the roof.

Cai Wei glanced back at Chai Feng and said nothing. Suddenly, a white-furred giant tiger appeared next to her; Chai Feng had seen it before and wasn’t too startled, only saying, "Royal Consort, be careful going out. If something happens, His Highness King Qin will be distressed!"

Cai Wei nodded and leapt onto the tiger’s back, heading directly for Duke Li Guo’s mansion in the city.

The white-furred tiger was very fast; in no time, they had entered the capital and, after several leaps, arrived at Duke Li Guo’s mansion.

Under the moonlight, Duke Li Guo’s large courtyard looked imposing, its doors tightly shut, exuding a powerful and majestic aura everywhere.

The white-furred tiger leapt lightly from outside the wall to inside.

Worried that the white-furred tiger might be seen, Cai Wei, once inside the mansion, sent it into the Space. Relying on her memory from last time, she located Fei’er’s dwelling.

At this moment, Fei’er hadn’t yet gone to bed. She sat under the lamp, embroidering a fan bag with a simple and rustic design. In the outer room, the little girl serving her was dozing off on a wooden bench, her head nodding.

Cai Wei pushed open the door and walked in quietly. When she reached the little girl, she flung a handful of sleeping powder, making her sleep soundly.

Tiptoeing into the inner room, Cai Wei approached Fei’er, craning her neck to peek over.

Fei’er was embroidering a fan bag for men. The bag was made of Shu Brocade, in dark turquoise, embroidered with a bat symbolizing good fortune, clinging to a peach, symbolizing both fortune and longevity—a truly auspicious sign. Moreover, two turquoise beads embellished the drawstring of the bag, making it look both understated and luxurious!

Fei’er was so focused on her embroidery that she didn’t even notice Cai Wei standing in front of her, just kept on stitching and smiling shyly.

Cai Wei naturally knew why her younger sister seemed so happy, so blissful.
