Chapter 858 - 860: Recognizing Relatives (1)
Nangong Yi seemed to highly approve of Cai Wei’s idea, and he even nodded, praising, "Wei’er’s idea is brilliant, and it pleases me greatly!"
Luo Xue’s head buzzed as if struck by thunder, and she fell to her knees with a "splash", urgently saying, "No, Your Highness King Qin, I do not wish to!"
As she spoke, she unconsciously looked towards Nangong Yu, her eyes begging for help.
Nangong Yu understood and said displeasedly, "Brother, what kind of bad ideas are these? Luo Xue is my person now, and even if she were to get married, shouldn’t I agree to it? You shouldn’t be worrying about this and messing up the mandarin ducks!"
Bad ideas and messing up the mandarin ducks were words meant to hit Cai Wei. Cai Wei, being such a clear-headed person, could not fail to catch the insinuation. She smiled coldly and said, "Princess need not be anxious. Since Miss Luo Xue does not wish to marry, naturally no one will force her. However, I wonder what exactly does the Princess intend to reward your elder brother with?"
"Well—"
Nangong Yu thought for a moment, then said, "Brother, I cannot bear to let Sister Luo Xue marry someone else. Why don’t you take her as a concubine instead, and after that, we’ll still be one family!"
Nangong Yu knew Luo Xue’s intentions well, and Luo Xue herself was fully aware that she was not suited to be Nangong Yi’s principal wife, and therefore only hoped for the position of a Concubine. Nangong Yu believed that suggesting to his brother to take Luo Xue as Concubine was not too presumptuous, after all, no men would complain about having too many women, especially when the additional one was a young and beautiful concubine.
Upon hearing Nangong Yu’s words, Luo Xue bashfully bowed her head, not refusing like she did before, clearly revealing her inner thoughts!
