After Chu Yuyan died, Qi Yuchang also died.

Ye Wuwei said to the trembling court doctor standing aside, "See if they are dead?"

The court doctor trembled as he stepped forward to check Qi Yuchang and Chu Yuyan's pulses:

"They're all dead."

Ye Wuwei instructed Yao Guangzhi:

"Gather all the servants of Prince Li's mansion, and bring Chu Yuyan's son here as well."

Soon, all the servants of Prince Li's mansion gathered together, and the wet nurse stood in front, holding the child tremblingly.

Ye Wuwei glanced around: "Who is the housekeeper?"

A man in his forties came forward tremblingly: "I am."

"Qi Yuchang and Chu Yuyan have committed serious crimes and have been ordered to be executed by His Majesty. All the people in the mansion who are slaves will be handed over to the government for unified disposal, and those who are good citizens can leave on their own.

You are responsible for handling the aftermath.

After the matter is settled, Prince Li’s Mansion will be sealed off.”

Hearing that their lives were not to be spared, the butler knelt down hurriedly and said, "Thank you very much, sir, for your mercy."

Ye Wuwei left the others behind to supervise the housekeeper's actions, and asked Yao Guangzhi to take Chu Yuyan's son and leave with him.

After leaving Prince Li's mansion, Ye Wuwei whispered to Yao Guangzhi:

"You send this child to a remote village, and place him at the doorstep of a family. Whether he lives or dies depends entirely on his fate.

Remember, nothing related to his identity can be kept.

Also, you must not tell this to anyone else, not even His Majesty."

In the end, Ye Wuwei couldn't bear to kill a child who was only two years old.

Yao Guangzhi agreed.

Yao Guangzhi thought to himself: Your Excellency is not cruel enough. In his opinion, we must cut the weeds and eradicate them completely.

Since the adults said to send the child to a remote village, then he would send the child to a remote village.

As for a household, even if no one lives there, it is still a household.

……

After Yao Guangzhi left, Ye Wuwei went to the Water Palace to find Shui Changqing.

Seeing Ye Wuwei's expression, Shui Changqing asked, "What's wrong?"

"I just finished dealing with Chu Yuyan's matter."

"Want to drink?"

"drink."

Shui Changqing brought the wine over and poured it for Ye Wuwei.

Ye Wuwei picked up the wine glass and drank it all:

"Master, I found that my heart is still not hard enough. I asked Yao Guangzhi to send Chu Yuyan's child away."

“There’s nothing wrong with that.

Even if Chu Yuyan didn't have a child, there would be other children involved in the controversy over the succession."

Shui Changqing poured another glass of wine for Ye Wuwei: "What's the matter that makes you feel bad?"

"I don't like intrigue and deception, I just want to live a simple and pure life.

I really miss modern life now.”

Shui Changqing also picked up a glass of wine and drank: "I miss modern life, but I can't go back."

"Master, if you could return to the modern era, would you be willing to go back?"

"Of course I do. Apart from anything else, it's nice to be able to bask in the sun and walk the dog in the park every day."

"Master..."

Seeing Ye Wuwei hesitate to speak, Shui Changqing knocked him on the head and said, "Is there anything else you can't say to me?"

"I suspect there is a space tunnel or black hole between Qi Dynasty and the other world."

Ye Wuwei told the story of his soul going to another world to meet Ye Yangzong:

"Since Ye Yangzong was able to take the treasures left by the Ye family to another world and return to the Qi Dynasty from that world, it is absolutely impossible for him to be a soul-transmigrating person."

After listening to Ye Wuwei, Shui Changqing's expression became serious:

"So, there really is a space tunnel between Qi Dynasty and the other world."

“I thought so too, but I’m not sure whether the connection point is in the Ghost Forest or somewhere else.

I'm going to check it out when I have time.

However, the strange world that Ye Yangzong went to was still different from the world we were in before.

Our world is organized into nations, while the other world is organized into families."

Hearing this, Shui Changqing frowned: "If that's the case, the battle in the other world must be very fierce."

“I only spent one day in the other world, so I don’t know much, but I think the ordinary people on the street are no different from us modern people.

You don’t need to be servile to anyone, and you can live confidently and calmly.”

Shui Changqing drank another glass of wine:

“No matter what era, those in high positions have great power but also great responsibility.

Even in our world it is the same.

In my opinion, the happiest people are ordinary people living in a peaceful and legal society like the modern era."

Ye Wuwei deeply agreed with this point.

However, no matter how much the Qi Dynasty reformed, it would never be like the modern times.

After all, the idea that kings are granted by God and that there are distinctions between superiors and inferiors is deeply ingrained in everyone's mind and cannot be changed so easily.

……

Ye Wuwei was drunk again.

Shui Changqing sent a confidant to deliver a message to Nie Youren:

"Tell him Commander Ye got drunk at my place and is staying here tonight."

After his confidant left, Shui Changqing helped Ye Wuwei to the bed, took off his boots and covered him with a quilt.

But Ye Wuwei was unable to spend the night in the Water Palace, and Qi Wushuang rushed over to pick him up.

Qi Wushuang looked at Ye Wuwei who was sleeping with a slightly frown on his face and asked: "Master, why is Wuwei in a bad mood?"

"Wu Wei dealt with Chu Yuyan today."

"I would have handled it myself earlier to avoid upsetting Wu Wei."

Shui Changqing did not tell Qi Wushuang the fundamental reason why Ye Wuwei was unhappy.

Because people who have never truly lived in a peaceful, lawful and equal modern society cannot understand Ye Wuwei and Shui Changqing's yearning for that kind of life.

Qi Wushuang stepped forward and picked up Ye Wuwei, and Ye Wuwei opened his eyes.

Qi Wushuang said softly: "It's me, you can sleep peacefully."

Not sure if he recognized Qi Wushuang, but Ye Wuwei fell asleep peacefully again.

After returning to the bedroom, Qi Wushuang gently put Ye Wuwei on the bed, and then brought some hot water to wipe Ye Wuwei's face, hands, and feet.

In the middle, Ye Wuwei woke up again, and when he saw that it was Qi Wushuang, he fell asleep again with peace of mind.

After wiping Ye Wuwei's feet, Qi Wushuang sat by the bed and looked at Ye Wuwei quietly:

Wu Wei would definitely not be unhappy just because he dealt with Chu Yuyan, it must be because of something else.

Since he went to find Shui Changqing, he must have missed his previous life.

Was the world that Wuwei lived in before really that good?

So good that I wouldn't be happy even with him.

Since Wu Wei said that Qi Chao has a passage to another world, then he will go to live in another world with Wu Wei.

Then he would start making some arrangements.
