Chapter 751: The Royal Consort Arrives (2)_1
"That’s fine, I’ll leave first then. Since Big Brother Huo is not here, I’ll leave the Shen shop to you to handle!"
Cai Wei nodded to the shopkeeper and left Mu’s Shen Record Shop. As soon as she reached the door, she opened her thoughts and called Brother Ying.
"Brother Ying, come back soon, there’s an important task here for you and Chang Mei!"
"What’s the task?" Brother Ying was hovering despairingly over the skies of Lingbei, looking for everything he could eat.
Cai Wei said: "I need you and Chang Mei to help me kill someone!"
Before, she had assigned Brother Ying to investigate and found that Jin Guifei’s sleeping chamber was surrounded by secret guards, making it impossible for her to kill Jin Guifei herself. Therefore, she planned to have Brother Ying and Chang Mei join forces, along with a potent poison prepared specifically by the Old Turtle, to kill Jin Guifei!
Jin Guifei must die as soon as possible. Otherwise, the lives of Big Brother Huo and Virtuous Consort are in grave danger. But she has to get to Lingbei before the soldiers’ morale collapses and help Nangong Yi overcome the crisis. Therefore, she is torn and can only entrust the task of dealing with Jin Guifei to Brother Ying and Chang Mei.
Cai Wei spent the entire day in the market. She bought a large basket at the grocery store, carrying the basket around and buying things. She would put the purchases in the basket and then transfer them into her space domain. She visited shop after shop, and through this transit station equivalent to the basket, she collected goods that would fill several carts into the space.
At night, Cai Wei went to her newly purchased house. To her delight, she found food filling the main rooms and side rooms of the house, and there was also a small mountain-like pile in the courtyard. Including what she had plundered from Lin’an before, it was enough to feed Nangong Yi’s army for a month or two.
