Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Qing looked at Wen Xiu with an indescribable sense of familiarity. The main thing was that she looked like someone when she smiled.
“Da Niu, how did you and Miss Wen Xiu meet?”
Su Qing looked at Li Daniu and suddenly asked. Xiao Zeyu couldn’t help but glance at Su Qing. Wasn’t Qing’er not interested in this?
“Speaking of which, we were fated to meet each other…”
Li Daniu’s eyebrows danced as he spoke. He looked at Wen Xiu lovingly. It was the feeling that could not be pulled out of his eyes.
It turned out that his encounter with Wen Xiu was fated. On the way to deliver wine to Tartan, he heard a cry for help and went over to take a look. He saw Wen Xiu fall into a crack more than two meters deep. She was so scared that her face was filled with tears. When she saw Li Daniu, it was as if she had seen a life-saving straw and was crying for help.
“Save me, quickly save me.”
Li Daniu’s heart started beating uncontrollably when he saw her. This girl was too beautiful. He fell in love with her at first sight. Together with his coachman, he rescued this girl.
Seeing her tattered clothes and the scars on her face, Li Daniu asked her what had happened.
Wen Xiu said that her family was robbed, and her parents and brothers were killed. She went to her relatives, who wanted to sell her for money. She escaped from her relatives’ house and fell into a crack in the ground.
Wen Xiu cried so miserably that Li Daniu’s heart was broken. He didn’t know how to coax her, and after a long time, he finally said,
“Let me send you home!”
“Home? There’s no place for me in this world. Evil people have invaded my home, and I’m homeless.”
In the end, Wen Xiu cried even more when she heard Li Daniu’s words. Seeing how pitiful she was, Li Daniu felt pity for her and impulsively suggested she go home with him.
After saying that, he regretted it. He feared that Wen Xiu would think he was a lecher who wanted to take advantage of her.
He did not expect Wen Xiu to agree and follow him back to Mo City. They had been together for more than a month. Li Daniu’s mother asked Wen Xiu if she would marry Li Daniu. She nodded shyly, and this marriage was formed.
“It’s quite strange. Where is your home? Who robbed your house? We can help you take revenge.”
Su Qing looked at Wen Xiu. Her voice was indifferent, which was very suitable for her status as an empress. It was neither cold nor warm, giving off a very distant feeling.
“My family is from the Undying Tribe. The Kaka Tribe took over the entire tribe. All the men were killed, and the women were kept as slaves. I wasn’t in the tribe then, so I ran out.”
Wen Xiu cried when she talked about the past. She cried very sadly.
“Is that so? Alright, I’ll help you destroy that tribe if possible.”
Su Qing nodded. Wen Xiu wiped away her tears and looked at Su Qing gratefully.
Li Daniu hugged his wife with heartache. He said to her gently,
“The Emperor will avenge you. Don’t worry!”
Su Qing saw Wen Xiu’s body stiffen when Li Daniu hugged her. She instinctively dodged.
Su Qing’s eyes flashed. Li Daniu’s wife didn’t like him but wanted to marry him. Could she be homeless and only agreed to marry him because Li Daniu’s family was wealthy?
“No, there are still many things to do here. Go back and tell Auntie Li that Shuisheng thanks her for her kindness. When there’s a chance, I’ll take her to the capital to play for a few days.”
“Aiya, you can’t go? I told her you were busy and couldn’t come, but my mother didn’t believe me.”
Li Daniu had a regretful look on his face. He missed Shuisheng too much. It was not easy for them to meet each other, and he wished they could always be together.
“Then go ahead. I’ll go back first.”
Li Daniu was still able to distinguish the severity of the situation. Shuisheng was no longer the Shuisheng of the past. He had national affairs to attend to, and it was already a great honor to be able to see him.
“Alright, I’ll send you off.”
Xiao Zeyu nodded and personally sent Li Daniu to the main entrance, giving him enough face.
“Shuisheng, I’ll be leaving first. You must come to my house for a gathering before you leave.”
Li Daniu still held Xiao Zeyu’s hand as he walked out the door. They had parted ways this time. Who knew when they would meet again?
“Alright.”
Xiao Zeyu smiled and nodded. Her beautiful eyes looked at Xiao Zeyu as she gave him a long bow.
“Your Majesty, I will take my leave.”
She was so alluring and charming, her eyes flowing with a charming light, her voice like a singing oriole. Xiao Zeyu couldn’t help but frown.
Previously, he hadn’t noticed that Wen Xiu had called herself a commoner twice. She was already married Li Daniu, so should she call herself a commoner?
Furthermore, this flirtatious and seductive look in her eyes made Xiao Zeyu feel even more disgusted. He was worried for Li Daniu. If he were to find such a wife, it would be a problem if they could grow old together.
Xiao Zeyu’s face darkened as he flicked his sleeves. Wen Xiu immediately regained her dignified appearance and didn’t dare to act rashly.
After Xiao Zeyu sent Li Daniu off, he was feeling very anxious. He had seen just now that Wen Xiu was using her eyes to seduce him. His good brother had found such a woman, and he couldn’t say anything to break them up. He was troubled for Li Daniu.
“What’s wrong?”
Su Qing could tell that Xiao Zeyu was angry, so she asked.
“Li Daniu’s wife isn’t very dignified.”
Xiao Zeyu’s words were obscure, but Su Qing still understood.
“Did she take a fancy to you?”
Su Qing’s eyes were cold. She was already married, yet she still refused to keep her morals. No wonder she looked so awkward when she looked at her just now. She said all kinds of flattering words, and her smile looked very bright, but her eyes showed no admiration. It did not match what she said at all. It proved that she did not mean what she said.
“That’s not it. I just feel that her behavior is a little frivolous.”
Xiao Zeyu was afraid that Su Qing would be jealous and angry and then run off to deal with Wen Xiu, making Li Daniu look bad, so he waved his hand and quickly denied it.
“I think she looks familiar. Her eyes are very similar to someone else’s. You know this person, too.”
Su Qing looked at Xiao Zeyu. Her words woke him up from his dream. The image of a person appeared in Xiao Zeyu’s mind.
“Are you talking about him?”
“Yes, it’s him.”
Su Qing saw that Xiao Zeyu had also remembered and nodded.
“Then why did she get close to Li Daniu?”
Xiao Zeyu couldn’t understand. Li Daniu wasn’t willing to become an official in the imperial court. He was just an ordinary businessman. What was the use of looking for him?
“We’ll have to wait and see. Let’s send some people to look for the Unsetting Sun Tribe and the Kaka Tribe she mentioned. Let’s see if they’re real.”
Su Qing couldn’t figure out why Wen Xiu chose Li Daniu. She could only wait and see but had to go to Wen Xiu’s hometown first.
“Alright, I’ll send someone over right away.”
Xiao Zeyu nodded. He knew that Wen Xiu was suspicious and had to investigate immediately. He was afraid that Li Daniu would be hurt.
However, he couldn’t tell Li Daniu before he had concrete evidence. He wouldn’t believe it, and it would hurt their brotherhood.
People were sent to investigate Wen Xiu, and the godmother’s patellar bone was moved at the same time. This was the auspicious day the Taoist priest chose to open the grave. Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing wore plain colored long robes and followed the Taoist priest to their godmother’s grave early in the morning.
As soon as Su Qing arrived at the cemetery, she felt a murderous aura assaulting her..
