Chapter 1040 – 1040: Wei Cang Didn’t Want to Send Nuo’er Out

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Nuo’er followed Wei Cang and the others and didn’t encounter any obstacles after that.

Wei Cang was afraid that something would happen again and drove the carriage day and night without stopping.

Finally, a month later, Gu Nuo’er was brought to the capital of the Xili Empire by Wei Cang.

At this moment, it was the end of summer in the Xili Empire.

Gu Nuo’er looked out of the carriage window. There were big trees close together with unknown purple flowers blooming on them.

The purple petals that filled the sky danced with the wind. The blue sky and leisurely white clouds lit up the child’s eyes.

“Wow~ The capital looks quite nice too!”

Ye Siming had long returned to his black wolf form and was lying in a corner to rest.

Hearing the child’s sigh, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at her lazily before closing his eyes and falling asleep again.This chapter was originally shared via n(0))vel(b)(j)(n).

Compared to Gu Nuo’er’s relaxed and content expression, Wei Cang and Yuan Gu, who were walking at the front of the carriage, had serious expressions.

The capital’s city gate was not far away.

However, Wei Cang had already seen that the inside and outside the city gate, as well as on the city walls, were all filled with soldiers.

He looked like he was about to go on a crusade.

Wei Cang couldn’t help but think of how much Ling Tianyin hated Gu Yihan.

He started to worry about how Ling Tianyin would deal with Gu Nuo’er.

She was still so young…

While Wei Cang was deep in thought, a group of people had already arrived at the entrance of the imperial city.

“Haha, Governor Wei!” A square-faced man with a beard and a red robe got off the horse and walked towards him.

Wei Cang immediately became serious and also got off the horse, cupping his hands. “General Zheng.”

This person called General Zheng was Ling Tianyin’s trusted aide.

He was a sinister person. Even on the battlefield, he liked to use despicable moves to catch the enemies by surprise and gain victory.

General Zheng looked at the carriage behind Wei Cang, his eyes filled with praise.

“His Majesty was very happy when he found out that you had successfully brought Princess Yaoguang back. He set up a banquet to welcome you tomorrow night.”

“Governor Wei, it’s been hard on you.”

General Zheng felt that he seemed to have had an illusion.

Why didn’t Wei Cang look happy at all when he heard his words?

His gaze turned even colder.

Wei Cang lowered his head and said tactfully, “I’m just sharing the burden of the emperor given that I’ve taken the salary of an official.”

He turned to look at the soldiers lined up behind General Zheng.

He couldn’t help but ask, “General Zheng, could it be that you’re going to be the commander-in-chief and set off for war?”

General Zheng laughed heartily and waved his hand. “No, no. Her Majesty’s eldest son has returned to the capital recently and revealed a piece of news to His Majesty.

“He said that under the Great Qi’s emperor, Gu Yihan, there’s a fierce general, Marquis Yongye. This person appears and disappears mysteriously and is highly skilled in martial arts.

“After being reminded by the emperor’s eldest son, oh no, His Highness the Crown Prince, we’re specially on guard here and are prepared to fight Marquis Yongye at any time!”

General Zheng placed his hand on the sword at his waist, eyes filled with disdain.

“I’ll take this chance to meet this Marquis Yongye and see if he is talented or if he’s a young man whose hair hasn’t grown fully!”

When Wei Cang saw that General Zheng had underestimated his enemy like this, he couldn’t help but frown.

He cupped his hands. “Then I won’t delay any longer. I still have to bring Princess Yaoguang into the palace to meet His Majesty. Farewell.”

“Hey, wait.” General Zheng blocked Wei Cang’s path.

His eyes were a little sinister and his smile was also eerie.

“His Majesty has orders. You can just leave her here. Hand Princess Yaoguang to me and I’ll bring her into the palace to see His Majesty.”

Wei Cang was stunned. “Before I set off, His Majesty didn’t tell me that he wanted to transfer the princess to someone else.”

Unexpectedly, General Zheng took out a bright imperial edict from his sleeve!

With a whoosh, it unrolled and was raised in front of Wei Cang.

“Governor Wei, the imperial edict is here. Do you believe me now?” General Zheng asked with a fake smile.
