Chapter 950 - 952: Meeting the Parents-in-law (7)
"Daughter-in-law? Where did this daughter-in-law come from?"
Empress Mo didn’t bother with sentimentality and immediately picked up on the sensitive word in her son’s statement.
Nangong Yi said, "Has Imperial Mother forgotten? Before I went to war, Imperial Father promised me that if I returned victorious, I could marry Caiwei as my wife. Now that I have returned victorious,"
"Didn’t Mu Caiwei die? Wasn’t she killed by a tiger...."
Empress Mo had barely spoken when she suddenly stopped herself, her words inadvertently confessing the scheme she had plotted before concerning Mu Caiwei marrying the Prince of Liaodan.
Nangong Yi perhaps remembered what his Imperial Mother had previously done to his little girl and his expression immediately turned much colder. He said indifferently, "She didn’t die, she was saved from the tiger’s mouth, and she has been well and with me the whole time."
"She actually didn’t die?"
Empress Mo found it unbelievable.
Nangong Yi said, "Perhaps heaven couldn’t bear to see me, Nangong Yi, lead a lonely life, so it allowed her to survive. Imperial Mother, it’s good that she’s still alive, otherwise, I wouldn’t be here to have this heart-to-heart talk with you!"
