Tong Sanlang, worried and anxious, drove the ox cart back home. Zhu Hongyun and his wife, the second sons of the Tong family, were still living in the town. Mrs. Qian had returned home, but she had gone to visit another family at this point, leaving only Tong Tiehu at home.

He bit his lip and told Tong Tiehu about his decision.

After hearing it, Tong Tiehu frowned and asked, “Are you sure about this?”

“I am sure.”

The frown on Tong Tiehu's face deepened, “Let me remind you, our family is too dangerous for ordinary people.”

“But I can't remain unmarried forever, I have to involve an innocent person.”

“I will ensure her safety,” Tong Sanlang said confidently, a look of confidence on his handsome face.

“But you must bear her wrath when she discovers the truth,” Tong Tiehu added.

Tong Sanlang heard the implied meaning in his grandfather's words and smiled.

Treason, a matter punishable by beheading. If the current Emperor discovered it, many people would die. Therefore, he did not plan to inform Qiao Xiaomai about his family's preparation for rebellion.

Concealing it from her now is a deceit.

Given Qiao Xiaomai's ability, she might very well chop him down with a knife while he is asleep once she discovered the truth.

No, she might not conceal her actions. Given her nature, she would confront him openly.

She has a great deal of power. In the face of her overwhelming strength, he might not be her match.

Imagining himself lying in a pool of blood, the smile on Tong Sanlang's handsome face deepened.

Ever since he found out he had to overthrow Daqi as per his great-grandfather's orders, he envisioned such a scenario.

Currently, Daqi is experiencing peace and prosperity. To plan a rebellion is an uphill task.

His fate most likely won't be too good.

He shouldn't have involved Qiao Xiaomai. However, witnessing Qiao Xiaomai taken away by Yang Ye was even less bearable. Thus, he would rather put Qiao Xiaomai on this path of criminality.

The thought of not seeing her made his heart ache badly, giving rise to an instinctive urge to storm the Wang Residence and steal her back.

Therefore, he decided to be selfish just this once.

Tong Tiehu gazed blankly at his grandson, his eyes filled with confusion again.

Having borne this heavy duty all his life, even handing it over to his grandson – was it right or wrong for him to do this?

Yang Family's rule over Daqi has brought prosperity and stability. Should he really plunge ordinary citizens back into war, all for the sake of a personal grudge…

Heaving a long sigh, he waved his hand, “Go ahead.”

The question of whether to rebel or not had troubled him for decades.

Now that the rule of the Yang Family is getting stronger, the Tong Family may not be able to overturn it. He couldn't restrict Tong Sanlang from getting married just because of this vague issue.

Having gained his grandfather's approval, Tong Sanlang knelt down before Tong Tiehu and thanked him, “Thank you for your understanding, Grandfather.”

Having said that, he got up, left the courtyard and headed for the Qiao Family.

Qiao Xiaomai was sitting expressionless in front of the stove, keeping an eye on the soy milk in the pot. Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami had taken the donkey cart to harvest green grass. Even with the formidable figure of Yang Ye looming over her, they still needed to earn their living.

Hearing Tong Sanlang's voice, she adjusted her facial expression, got up and opened the door.

“Brother Tong San, why are you here?”

“Let's go inside and talk,” Tong Sanlang stepped into the courtyard.

Qiao Xiaomai gave a nod, closed the courtyard door, and invited Tong Sanlang to sit down, “Would you like a bowl of soy milk?”

“No need,” Tong Sanlang shook his head and directly asked, “Today, I went to the Extreme Taste Restaurant to sell hunting goods and heard about what happened yesterday. Do you have any plans?”

Qiao Xiaomai

Apart from praying fervently in her heart, what other plans could she possibly have?

Seeing Qiao Xiaomai keeping silent, her face stern, Tong Sanlang chose his words carefully, “1 have a suggestion. Would you like to hear it?”

“What is it?”

“Marry me.” With thin lips slightly parting, Tong Sanhang revealed four words that made Qiao Xiaomai's face change drastically.

“My grandfather is, after all, a minor official registered in the Daqi database. If you marry me, Prince Wei wouldn't forcibly take you away.” In the face of Qiao Xiaomai's icy expression, Tong Sanlang explained..
