Chapter 1048: Think Carefully Who Your Ruler Is!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After undergoing layers of strict security, Wei Cang arrived at Ling Tianyin’s imperial study and asked to see him.
After a while, the eunuch who sent the message came out and nodded with a fake smile.
“Governor Wei, His Majesty has summoned you.”
After Wei Cang thanked him, he stepped into the study with a determined and serious expression.
The imperial study was spacious and cold.
A huge ice mirror was placed in the corner, slowly emitting cold fog.
Behind the wide mahogany table in the middle sat the Xili Empire’s emperor, Ling Tianyin.
His hair was tied up with a nine-dragon crown and his clothes were bright yellow. His aura was imposing.

Wei Cang bowed. “This subject greets Your Majesty.”
“Kneel.” Ling Tianyin didn’t even raise his head. He wrote on the memorial in front of him with red ink and said indifferently.
Wei Cang immediately frowned.
He was not in a hurry to ask for the reason. He listened to the imperial order and knelt.
Ling Tianyin only raised his head to look at Wei Cang after a long time. His eyes were sinister and filled with dissatisfaction.
“Wei Cang, you’re really capable. I asked you to kidnap Princess Yaoguang and bring her back to Xili, but you helped Gu Yihan a lot along the way.”
As he spoke, Ling Tianyin suddenly threw the report from the hidden guard on the ground!
“Look at what you’ve done for Great Qi!” Ling Tianyin’s eyes were filled with anger.
Wei Cang had known him since he was 13 years old, so Ling Tianyin never hid his true personality from him.
Ling Tianyin stood up and propped himself up on the table, leaning forward slightly and staring at Wei Cang like a fierce predator.
“First, you eliminate the mountain bandits. Then, you helped a town solve the unsolved case of missing women that no one has cared about for a hundred years.
“Wei Cang, it’s really a waste of your talent to be with me. You’ve done meritorious deeds consecutively. You should get Gu Yihan to bestow you with a high rank, right?”
Ling Tianyin suddenly grabbed the inkstone and threw it to the ground.
A shattering sound rang out.
Ling Tianyin questioned loudly, “Wei Cang, how dare you! I asked you to bring the princess back, but you also pledged loyalty to Gu Yihan!”
Wei Cang remained calm even though his heart was very cold.
He had gone out to war a few times and had narrowly escaped death each time, making outstanding military achievements.
Now, he had only done some things that were as easy as lifting a finger, but he was misunderstood and suspected by Ling Tianyin.
“Your Majesty, this subject personally feels that the conflict between the two countries shouldn’t implicate the commoners.”
“Whether it’s the people who were harmed by the mountain bandits or the women who were suffering in Divine Dragon Village, they’re all people this subject should save.
“There’s a grudge between countries, but the citizens are innocent!”
Ling Tianyin gritted his teeth when he heard this. In his anger, he laughed from anger.
“Haha, alright, alright, alright. Is that what you think?
“The usually decisive Wei Cang has actually become so indecisive and righteous after going to Great Qi?”

Wei Cang lowered his head, looking calm as if he was willing to listen to the emperor’s arrangements.
“This subject’s actions have dissatisfied Your Majesty. Please punish me.”
“Of course you have to be punished!” Ling Tianyin shouted fiercely. He raised his head and called out to the outside, “Men!”
His personal eunuch entered with two imperial guards.
Ling Tianyin stared at Wei Cang coldly.
“Wei Cang agrees covertly but opposes in secret. Send him to prison immediately and let him spend a few days to wake himself up!”
“Wei Cang, think carefully who your ruler is!” Ling Tianyin roared.
Wei Cang lowered his head and left with the imperial guards without saying a word.
Yuan Gu had been guarding outside the imperial study and heard the commotion inside.
When he saw Wei Cang come out again, he quickly took a few steps forward. “Governor…”
Wei Cang gave him a look, shook his head, and secretly made a gesture.
Yuan Gu understood.
Wei Cang was worried about Gu Nuo’er.
