Chapter 1476: Chapter 336: Mobilizing Troops to Liu’an to Rescue My Sister-in-Law

Upon hearing this, Third Miss Hua turned to Ni Wenjun and said, ”Mr. Ni.”

Ni Wenjun looked down at Third Miss Hua and said, ”What’s wrong, Third Lady? Speak.”

Third Miss Hua said, ”Chen Jiusi has great ambition, with an emperor’s aspiration. As his elder brother, what do you intend to do? Will you assist him or overpower him to become emperor yourself?”

Ni Wenjun was stunned by these words, thought for a moment and said, ”I’m not fit to be an emperor. The reason I fought with Xu and Zhao is because their actions are disgusting, always trying to seize our power and leaving us no way to survive, which is why I resisted.”

”If Chen Jiusi wants to be emperor, I, as his brother, would have nothing to say. I would definitely assist him. If he becomes emperor, we would be happy.”

As Ni Wenjun spoke, Third Miss Hua listened and said to Ni Wenjun, ”Are you speaking the truth?”

Ni Wenjun nodded sincerely and said, ”Actually, after these days, I’ve come to understand that I’m not made for politics, let alone being an emperor, which is even more troublesome. If one day Chen Jiusi really becomes emperor, we won’t ask him for positions, nor wealth and prosperity; we just want two fast horses to roam the world together, as an immortal couple. How wonderful would that be?”

Third Miss Hua replied to Ni Wenjun, ”Mr. Ni, hearing you say this makes me really happy. If you always think like this, your brotherhood with Chen Jiusi will surely become a celebrated tale for all time.”

Ni Wenjun, surprised, looked at Third Miss Hua and said, ”Third Lady, what do you mean by that? Are you saying if I don’t think this way, I will become enemies with Chen Jiusi in the future?”

Third Miss Hua looked at Ni Wenjun, whose political talent was almost nonexistent, and said, ”It’s okay, Mr. Ni. As long as you hold onto these thoughts, you can maintain your relationship with Chen Jiusi.”

Ni Wenjun was silent for a long while before Third Miss Hua said, ”But Mr. Ni, you must promise me one thing.”

Ni Wenjun, puzzled, looked at Third Miss Hua, and she said, ”In the future, whether you’re bestowed titles as a marquis and prime minister or truly roam Jianghu with me as you said, you must promise me one thing, otherwise I won’t forgive you.”

Ni Wenjun looked at Third Miss Hua and said, ”Third Lady, tell me.”

Third Miss Hua said, ”Regardless of what happens in the future, you must support Su Yunjin being Chen Jiusi’s principal wife. Whether it’s that enchanting Huang Wan’er, or that noble Commandery Princess, they must not affect Yunjin sister’s status as the principal wife, do you understand?”

Ni Wenjun frowned and said, ”Wife, this is concerning the inner quarters’ matters, what does it have to do with us?”

Third Miss Hua said, ”What inner quarters’ matters? If Chen Jiusi truly becomes emperor one day, that’s a major event, choosing a queen for the nation, that’s state affairs. Let me make it clear ahead of time: when the time comes, regardless of whether I am alive or dead, as long as you are alive, you must support Su Yunjin, do you hear me?”

Ni Wenjun said, ”Third Lady, what kind of talk is this? What do you mean regardless of whether you are alive or dead?”

Third Miss Hua said, ”Having gone through this, I understand it’s not easy to survive in this troubled world. My death wouldn’t be a problem, but my only concern is my sister Yunjin.”

”She is truly too kind-hearted, and Chen Jiusi is so outstanding. In the future, there will be more women who will flock to him like moths to a flame, and I’m truly afraid my sister Yunjin might not be able to withstand it.”

”Therefore, Mr. Ni, promise me, in the future we can ignore everything else, but during the selection of the queen, you must lend Yunjin a hand, she’s in no easy situation.”

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun looked at Third Miss Hua and said, ”So, you have never considered me, if you’re not around, what will I do?”

Third Miss Hua looked at Ni Wenjun and said, ”As for you, as long as you don’t act foolishly or reach for positions you shouldn’t, Chen Jiusi will definitely take care of you for your entire life. If I were to die, Chen Jiusi will surely find you a prettier, younger girl, so I don’t need to worry about you.”

Ni Wenjun, hearing this, grabbed Third Miss Hua’s hand and said, ”I don’t want that, I only want Third Lady alone.”

”Let go, someone might see.”

”I won’t let go.”

”Silly, I’m serious, did you hear me? Support Su Yunjin.”

Speaking, Third Miss Hua said, Ni Wenjun, ”Alright, alright, I’ll support Su sister, I understand.”

...

The sound of gallops...

Upon a wide avenue, a chestnut-colored warhorse galloped away in a cloud of dust, ridden by a person who was desperately whipping the horse, charging forward crazily.

From Wushan to Longxing Prefecture, even without obstacles, it would require five to six days. There’s no choice, Chen Jiusi had to travel day and night, using one day as two.

Throughout this journey, Chen Jie raced ahead swiftly, the chestnut warhorse was indeed impressive, carrying Chen Jie for two days and nights until it finally could not run any longer. Chen Jie could feel that his thousand-mile horse was close to its limit.

If he kept pushing the horse, although it could still run eighty to a hundred miles, it might very likely die of exhaustion.

Feeling unwilling to harm the horse, Chen Jie dismounted in advance, just as he had reached the Hubei territory, he found a local post station and deposited the horse there.

Switching to the post station’s fast horse, Chen Jie continued heading toward Longxing Prefecture, in the process changing horses without changing riders. By the time he was approaching Qianjiang Prefecture, he had already exhausted two fast horses to death.

Arriving at the Qianjiang Prefecture’s outpost, this place was already under Chen Jie’s control, he immediately ordered the outpost to release the message eagle he had raised specifically, to directly send a message to Huangzhou Prefecture.

Command: Chen Xiaohu and Wu Daojun, lead the Vermilion Bird Guard and station at Anhui Lu’an.

Chen Jie analyzed the route for this wedding; there are two paths from Longxing Prefecture to the Great Capital. The first and quickest path is by sea and land, traveling north along the coast from Taizhou, then changing to land at Zhigu (modern-day Tianjin), and heading straight to the Great Capital.
