"I’m going to make food for wifey." Ye Zi’an thought he needed to eat well to have the energy to work at night.
"Don’t go, aren’t you tired? We’ve been rushing all night, so rest well instead." There wasn’t a town for a hundred miles around Liao City, yet they arrived early, clearly traveling through the night.
"Haha, wifey, are you worried I won’t be strong tonight?" Ye Zi’an joked with a smile.
"Go on with you." Yang Chuxia rolled her eyes at him, "Stop fooling around and get so rest quickly."
"Yes, ma’am, my dear!"
After Ye Zi’an took a rest, Yang Chuxia left the room.
She didn’t see Lele. Ming Lan said Lele had also gone to rest, and so she relented.

Great Qi
Yangyang looked at the splendid palace with a totally different style from Great Zhou, a bit dazed.
Seeing people calling Prince Le the Second Prince made him even more bewildered.
He felt this world was slightly terrifying; this was clearly a prince from Great Zhou, yet here they were kneeling and bowing to him, wasn’t this absurd?
Turning to look at the old monster, he didn’t seem surprised at all.
In a muddled state, he was led by palace maids to a hall, finally waking up, "Why did you bring here?"
"Little Highness, this is your residence hall?" The maid smiled, "The big highness lives in Qinghua Hall, this is Baohua Hall for you."
"Who are you calling Little Highness?" Yangyang scolded, "I’m just , what’s this ssy Little Highness business?"
"Highness!" The maid was at a loss; this was what she had been instructed.
"Alright, you go out first, everyone leave." The old monster waved his hand to dismiss the palace maids and eunuchs.
"Old man, what the hell is going on?" With no strangers left, Yangyang grabbed his sleeve, "I’m not any highness."
The old monster looked at him with a very complex expression.
After a while, he said, "He declared you as his youngest son to the outside world, hence the title Little Highness. He’s now Great Qi’s Second Prince, the old Great Qi Emperor passed away recently, and amidst the princes’ power struggle, the Second Prince erged victorious, soon to ascend the throne."
"But, old man, he clearly isn’t."
The old monster chuckled, "Whether he is or not, it’s up to him to decide."
Yangyang was speechless; this felt like the all-powerful Buddha, mastering the world?
After leaving Prince Le’s base, he lost consciousness and awoke in the Great Qi capital. Before having ti to process, he was brought into the Great Qi palace.
Then he saw a group of people bowing to Prince Le, shouting ’Long live the Second Prince.’
He really wanted to shout back, "You idiots, don’t even know who your prince is!"
"It’s all over now, completely over." Yangyang sprawled onto a chair, looking despondent, "In the Great Qi palace, I’m even more stuck now?"
"Seems so, at the mont." The old monster, saying it, greatly admired Prince Le.
He easily seized the Great Zhou throne, yet disdainfully looked away, and eventually beca a prince of Great Qi. Moreover, unexpectedly, the real Great Qi Second Prince died ten years ago.
But that’s not the scariest part. What’s worse is, several ministers in Great Qi used to be from Great Zhou, having changed their identities over a decade ago, infiltrating Great Qi and gradually entering the court.
If he guessed correctly, Prince Le did this for today.
