The white-haired tiger told Cai Wei that it wanted to take this opportunity to visit its mother, whom it had not seen in decades, and missed her deeply.
Cai Wei, of course, would not refuse. After sending him off, she spoke to the space.
"Co out!"
As soon as her words fell, Chang i led a wild buffalo out of the space, and on its back was carrying a huge fruit tree, filled with fruits.
This wild buffalo was captured by Cai Wei during a royal hunting ground adventure when she ford a marital alliance with Saknu. Originally planned to be fattened up for making beef jerky, the buffalo exhibited a gentle temperant, never harming crops in the space, often helping Chang i with plowing and grinding flour.
Because of its many rits, Cai Wei decided to keep it. After several months nourished by the spiritual aura of the space, the wild buffalo even developed a bit of spiritual sensibility, able enough to understand Chang i’s commands.
"Chang i, dig a hole in front of the grave and plant the fruit tree!"
At Cai Wei’s command, Chang i hurriedly instructed the wild buffalo to plow an area and quickly dug a hole, planting the tree with the help of the buffalo.
The fruits on the tree were the size of apples, each bearing the words: "Funerary burial is cruel, against heavenly principles!"
As for the writing on the fruits, this was a trick taught by the cunning rchants of the past life—just paste these words on the fruits, and in ti, they would naturally appear.
Plowing the frozen snowy ground, digging holes, planting trees, and mulching the soil was not a simple task, but a huge undertaking. Chang i and the wild buffalo were busy until the fifth shift of the night before they got the fruit tree properly settled.
To assure that the fruit tree didn’t freeze and would continue to flourish, Cai Wei specially transported a lot of soil from the space to plant it and watered it with the spirit stream water from the space.
After finishing, Chang i evened out the snow on the cetery, covering their footsteps, making it seem as if no one had been there, and the heavily fruit-bearing tree appeared as if it had grown out of nowhere.
After arranging everything, Cai Wei laid a cushion on the wild buffalo’s back, rode it, and let it carry her to the King City,
The cetery was dozens of li from the King City. Normally, Cai Wei could walk back without a problem, but now that she was pregnant, she couldn’t overexert herself.
The wild buffalo’s speed was much faster than that of a dostic cow, and after several months of nurturing in the space, it walked swiftly and steadily. By the ti the sun rose, they had reached the outskirts of the King City. Cai Wei dismounted from the buffalo’s back and took it into the space to keep it from being seen and causing astonishnt.
In the harsh cold weather of the north, during this season, most people stayed at ho, either sitting on a warm kang drinking so liquor, or doing the thing that husbands and wives like to do most on the kang—avoiding going out whenever possible. Hence, she didn’t encounter anyone along the way.
The part of the road going into the city was walked by her and was quite deserted, until she reached the comrcial street where people gradually beca more nurous, showing the strong influence of the comrcial street in Lingbei.
Upon seeing Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was excited for a long ti; she looked up and down at Cai Wei several tis with red eyes, before chokingly saying, "Miss, where have you been all this ti? The Emperor sent several groups of people to find you. I thought sothing had happened to you and was so worried..."
Cai Wei lightly replied, "Why cry? Here I am all well and good. But what about you? It’s been a few months, has there been any progress with your relationship with the Young Prince?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun’s face turned red and she said, "Zhao Yun has said before, I will not marry in this lifeti. Why does Miss still tease about it?"
