After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

That night, Qi Wushuang, who had eaten and drunk his fill, finally calmed down.

The two sat on the bed and talked about the important matters that had not been finished in the afternoon.

Ye Wuwei leaned on Qi Wushuang's chest, and Qi Wushuang hugged Ye Wuwei from behind.

"What move are you talking about?"

“First, the number of Jinshi you admit this time must be limited; it cannot be too large, so as not to cause panic among the officials in the court.

2. A new Hanlin Academy will be established. All newly admitted Jinshi will have to take another exam. Those with excellent results and conduct will enter the Hanlin Academy and be called Shujishi.

Shujishi were close ministers to the emperor, responsible for drafting imperial edicts and explaining classics to the emperor.

From then on, only Shujishi could enter the cabinet.

3. Establish the Censorate and the Six Departments Censorate, which were not established previously due to lack of personnel.

This way, the court will have more positions, and even Jinshi who failed to become Shujishi will have positions assigned to them. And the current court officials will not have to worry about being laid off.

The Censor-in-Chief was responsible for supervising officials in various prefectures and cities, and the Six Departments' Censors were responsible for supervising the daily work of officials in the six ministries.

The Hanlin Academy and the Shujishi were systems of two dynasties copied by Ye Wuwei.

After listening to Ye Wuwei, Qi Wushuang said:

"Wouldn't the court need many more officials?"

“You have to take it slow.

If you replace the existing officials now, there will be strong opposition. Wait until you find them making mistakes and then slowly remove them."

"The imperial court was already poor, and now it has to support more idle people."

"Once taxes are levied on the noble families, the court will have money."

"How long will it take?"

"After we admit the first batch of Jinshi, we'll build a new city. Once the new city is completed, we'll have tax revenue. Then, collecting taxes from the aristocratic families won't be that difficult to implement."

Qi Wushuang thought about Ye Wuwei's words and touched Ye Wuwei's body from time to time.

Ye Wuwei was also tired, and fell asleep while being touched by Qi Wushuang.

When Qi Wushuang thought it over and tried to talk to Ye Wuwei again, he found that Ye Wuwei had fallen asleep.

Looking at the sleeping Ye Wuwei, Qi Wushuang thought:

Wu Wei now finally trusts and relies on him wholeheartedly, and always sleeps soundly beside him.

Qi Wushuang gently laid Ye Wuwei flat so that he could sleep comfortably. Then he gently kissed the tip of Ye Wuwei's fleshy nose and lay down to sleep.

Qi Wushuang recalled the intimacy they had today, and the charming gesture Wu Wei had unintentionally revealed under his "kisses". At that moment, he thought:

He would be willing to give his life to Wu Wei!

No wonder there are so many stories of “losing one’s temper for a beautiful woman”. If it is for Wu Wei, he would rather be a tyrant!

As he thought about it, Qi Wushuang's thoughts went astray again.

If the two of them could really be together, how charming would Wu Wei be?

How addicted would that be?

Thinking of this, Qi Wushuang showed signs of recovery again.

I can't come again today, Wu Wei really can't stand it anymore. Qi Wushuang quickly put aside his distracting thoughts and thought about the affairs of the court.

……

He went to bed early last night, and Ye Wuwei woke up when Qi Wushuang got up.

Ye Wuwei supported his head with his hands and looked at Qi Wushuang sideways.

Qi Wushuang put on his coat and looked at Ye Wuwei: "Do you like my body?"

"Yes, I like it."

"I'll show you tonight."

Ye Wuwei did not respond to Qi Wushuang's words.

After Qi Wushuang went to court, Ye Wuwei stayed in bed for a while and then got up.

Today is another busy day. At 10:00 p.m., Ye Wuyi returned from the west of the city covered in dust, only to find that the food on the table had not been touched.

"Why haven't you eaten yet?"

"Not hungry yet."

Little Dengzi looked at Ye Wuyi resentfully. His Majesty was waiting for Minister Ye to have dinner.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

"Have you eaten yet?"

"I ate at the construction site."

Qi Wushuang then started eating.

When Ye Wuwei came out of the shower, he saw Xiao Dengzi waiting for him.

"Is something wrong?"

"Minister, next time you're not coming back for dinner, could you please tell His Majesty first?"

Ye Wuwei paused while wiping his hair: "Wushuang is waiting for me to eat?"

"Yes".

Little Dengzi nodded his head like a rattle.

"I see."

Little Dengzi only dared to give a reminder, he didn't dare to say more.

Ye Wuwei sat down opposite Qi Wushuang:

“My hours at the construction site are not fixed; sometimes I’m early, sometimes I’m late.

From now on, if I don’t reply when it’s time for dinner, you can eat first and don’t have to wait for me.”

Qi Wushuang took Ye Wuwei's cotton towel and wiped the water off his hair: "Little Dengzi told you?"

"He's also worried about you."

"But wait, there's no missing piece of meat."

"If I come back later than today, will you keep waiting? I won't be able to work peacefully outside that way."

"Come back early, knowing I'm waiting for you."

Ye Wuwei glared at Qi Wushuang and said, "You're going to make the work more difficult for Xiao Dengzi and the people in the kitchen."

"Then you should come back early."

Seeing that Qi Wushuang was not moved, Ye Wuwei angrily pulled the cotton towel.

Qi Wushuang dodged the hand holding the cotton towel and changed the subject: "It's been three years, your hair has finally grown longer."

Thinking of the past, Ye Wuwei smiled: "What did you think when you saw me with my bare head?"

"You were only a young boy back then, what could I possibly think?"

"No idea at all?"

Qi Wushuang thought for a moment:

"At first I suspected you were a spy sent to me, but later I decided you were capable and interesting, and it was a pleasure talking to you."

"That's it?"

"nature.

You were like a thirteen-year-old boy then. If I still had any other thoughts about you, wouldn't I be a real beast?"

Ye Wuwei thought about it: That’s right!

"What about when I first met you at Prince Qi's mansion?"

Qi Wushuang recalled the scene when they met at Prince Qi's Mansion a year ago after two years apart:

"I was stunned by you at that time, and I felt that there was no man more handsome than you in the whole of Changdu.

Therefore, I appoint you as Vice Commandant."

"What position did you intend to appoint me to?"

"Originally, I discussed with Fu Chi that you should be promoted to a captain, but after seeing you, I felt that the position of a captain was not worthy of you, so I privately changed your position to a deputy captain."

Ye Wuwei touched his face and said, "It seems that my face is still useful. It has been upgraded to the third level and fifth rank in an instant."

Qi Wushuang kissed Ye Wuwei on the face:

"Fortunately, I appointed you as the deputy commander at that time, otherwise it would not have been so easy for me to pursue you later."

Ye Wuwei thought for a moment:

"Indeed, if you had appointed me as a captain, I would not have worked so hard for you.

Maybe I'll just hang out in the military and figure things out for myself."

Hearing Ye Wuwei say this, Qi Wushuang was extremely glad for his decision at that time.

This is also due to his perception of "danger".
