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

Chapter 254 Qi Yuli went to Chunyu Mansion

The person standing on the shore is Ye Hongxia.

Ye Hongxia was wearing a veil hat, but Ye Wuwei still recognized her at a glance.

Ye Wuwei asked the fisherman and Lei Dahong to wait on the side, and he walked towards Ye Hongxia alone:

"How did you come?"

Ye Hongxia glanced at Lei Dahong and the others not far away and said implicitly:

“He didn’t ask me to come.

He released the flare I left for you. When I found out, I rushed over and he asked me to come to this area to find you.

Let me keep you safe."

"I dragged you into this again."

"Don't say these fake polite words. Why aren't you polite when you're at Hibiscus Pavilion?"

"Do you know everything that happened in Hibiscus Pavilion?"

“Not only do I know this, but Master knows it too.

Furthermore, we not only know what happened at Furong Pavilion, but we also know the entire story of your investigation into the Minister of Personnel."

"Master, you didn't blame me for being reckless, did you?"

"Not really. After hearing the whole story, he praised you for your wit."

Ye Hongxia recalled what Ye Changtian had said to her at that time:

"I never thought that a stubborn person like you could give birth to such a clever son. I think he's even more capable than his father."

Although Ye Hongxia said that Ye Wuwei was just cunning at the time, she was still happy in her heart that Ye Wuwei was praised by Ye Changtian.

Ye Hongxia asked Ye Wuwei:

"He didn't tell me the purpose of your trip. What do you want to do next?"

"I suspect that 30,000 missing people were taken abducted to a nearby island, and I want to confirm this.

If these 30,000 people were taken captive to this island and they wanted to leave, I would do everything in my power to rescue them."

“Before coming here, I specifically asked my master, and he told me that there is indeed a large island in the sea more than 300 miles away from the southernmost tip of South City. He also visited this island when he was young.

At that time, there were people living on this island, but their numbers were extremely small, and their appearance was slightly different from that of the people in the Central Plains.

Ye Wuwei sensitively caught the word "grandmaster", "The grandmaster you are talking about is not Wushuang's master, right?"

Ye Hongxia was stunned: How could she let the cat out of the bag again?

"Let me tell you something serious."

Ye Wuwei did not delve further into the matter:

"It seems that there is indeed an island in the nearby sea. How did your master get to this island?"

"You may not believe this, but it was a giant fish in the sea that brought Master to this island."

Ye Wuwei fell into deep thought: How can I get to the island and find out what’s going on?

Seeing Ye Wuwei deep in thought, Ye Hongxia said, "First find a place to stay, then think of a solution."

"There's only a fishing village nearby. I plan to stay at that fisherman's house for the next few days."

……

**

After Ye Wuwei went to Nancheng, the Qi'an tribe relaxed its surveillance of Chamdo, and Qi Yuli, the eldest son of the former emperor and nephew of General Ye, quietly left Chamdo.

The place Qi Yuli was heading to was Chunyu Prefecture.

After the entire Ye family was executed, some of the forces that had previously relied on the Ye family chose to join other families, some chose to retire, and some chose to support Qi Yuli.

Chunyu Mansion was previously the territory of the Ye family, so Qi Yuli had spies in Chunyu Mansion.

When Ye Yangzong and his men first arrived at Chunyu Mansion, the people there did not pay much attention to him.

But after Ye Yangzong publicly recruited people who were familiar with the Ghost Forest and led people to sneak into the Ghost Forest many times, Qi Yuli received a report from Chunyu Mansion's spies.

Afterwards, Qi Yuli learned that Ye Yangzong was the posthumous son of General Ye. Considering that not much property was seized from the Ye family when their house was ransacked, he guessed that the Ye family must have hidden their wealth in the Ghost Forest long ago.

Originally, after Qi Wushuang ascended the throne, Qi Yuli had given up the idea of ​​fighting for the throne. However, when the news came out that Qi Wushuang was inhumane and had no heirs, Qi Yuli started to think about it again.

In Qi Yuli's view:

Qi Wushuang had no heir, so the throne would either be passed on to other members of the Qi clan or a child would be chosen from among the Qi clan to inherit the throne.

No matter which one it is, Qi Yuli has a chance.

Because the descendants of the former emperor and the descendants of Prince Su are the closest to Qi Wushuang, they are the most suitable for either adoption or succession.

Among the descendants of the former emperor, only Qi Yuli and Qi Wushuang had not experienced the feud.

Therefore, if Qi Yuli could use a large sum of money to bribe officials in the court and members of the Qi family, and then ask them to help him when the time came to establish his heir, Qi Yuli would still have a great chance of success.

But the key is to have money.

Qi Yuli had no income from his fiefdom, no support from his mother's family, and limited help from his wife's family. Therefore, after guessing that the Ghost Forest in Chunyu Mansion might contain a large amount of wealth left by the Ye family, he went to Chunyu Mansion regardless of the risks.

In fact, it cannot be said that Qi Yuli’s ideas are wrong. His ideas are what most people in Qi Dynasty would have.

It’s a pity that Qi Wushuang is not a person who plays by the rules, not to mention that there is Ye Wuwei whose ideas are completely different from those of Qi Chao.
