The Princess Wei Yang (106+)

Chapter 145 - Secret Exposed - Part 1

The Seventh Prince Tuoba Yu had made great achievements and was rewarded by the emperor when he returned to the capital.

He was appointed as the General of Fuyuan and was in charge of the northern military with 200,000 soldiers.

This made him a prince with real military power endorsed by the emperor.

He was now unparalleled in the court..

Inside the pavilion, Tuoba Yu met up with Li Wei Yang for the first time after returning to the capital. It was already the beginning of spring but his face was very calm. There was no trace of joy or complacency.

The incident with Concubine De had changed him almost unrecognizably.

In the past, he might have been moved by the the thought of implicating innocent people or killing people on the battlefield, but now, he wouldn't even blink an eyelid. Sometimes, he felt as if he was gradually turning into a different person, one who had enough strength and vicious heart to survive the fierce royal struggle.

"I already have 200,000 troops in my hands. Combined with the 200,000 troops in my uncle general Luo's hands, it totals 400,000 troops. This ought to be enough to compete with Old general Jiang's troup of 500,000.

In fact, when Old General Jiang was on his way back to his base, I sent someone to deliberately reveal the what happened to the Jiang Family to him. Right now, his strength has wanted. He probably won't survive for long." Tuoba Yu said slowly.

He made this appointment with Li Wei Yang in order to make these reports, but he soon found that the other person was absentminded. He wondered what she was thinking about.

Seeing her absentmindedness, he felt a little lost and sour in his heart.

He had been away for more than a month, but Li Wei Yang hadn't asked him even once if he was okay. She was quite heartless, only caring about the outcome of the whole affair.

The rowdiness in the city and the riots at the border can no longer move him, because he could control it all. Li Wei Yang on the other hand was an unknown variable. He always felt helpless around her. He didn't know what she was thinking. What decision she would make. Whether or not she would change her mind about supporting him.

Li Wei Yang lowered her eyes, gazing at the hot cup of tea in her hands and then said thoughtfully: "Your Highness the Seventh Prince is not in a good situation now. On the contrary, your actions have attracted the attention of the Queen, the Crown Prince and others. A big tree attracts wind. Your current situation is very dangerous."

Tuoba Yu looked at Li Wei Yang's calm face and strangely did not feel worried. Instead, his brows relaxed.

Occasionally, he felt lucky that such a terrifying girl was his ally. But most of the time, he was worried that he was not strong enough to control her.

In the middle of the night, he would have nightmares about what would happen if she felt dissatisfied with him again and abandoned him.

Leaving him without even looking back?

This kind of inexplicable worries about losing her. What type of feelings were they really? He couldn't explain. Even to himself!

It seemed, he had been following the path she designed from the day he met her. Even now, he was chasing after her footsteps.

Every time he thought he had caught up, he discovered again that he knew nothing about her at all.

Tuoba Yu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Do you mean – for me to restrain myself?"

Li Wei Yang shook her head and said: "It's too late, even if you restrain yourself now, they wont let you go.

On the contrary, the more you give in, the more they will push until you get to the point of no return."
