Chapter 286 Not Wanting to Sit and Wait for Death
Inside the prison cell, everyone was eager to play Werewolf. They took turns playing several rounds before gradually experiencing the fun of the game, and this was when they were really into it.
Ye Yuwu, as the judge, has a god-like perspective and finds watching them play hilarious.
"Dog Egg! You can go now!" At this moment, the guard next to him suddenly said to a prisoner in the cell.
The prisoner was playing a game, and the guard had to repeat himself three times before he heard.
"No, no! I don't want to leave here! It was just my turn to play the game!" Dog Egg was mercilessly taken away from the cell by the guards.
Soon after, several more prisoners were able to leave their cells, which meant they had been released.
But no one wanted to leave.
"I still want to play Werewolf! I don't want to leave!" But no one paid attention to their cries, and they were ruthlessly taken away by the guards.
They could only watch helplessly as their positions were taken by others, and one by one they couldn't help but transform into roaring emperors and begin to howl to the sky.
"Brothers, wait for me! I'll be back soon! You must wait for me!"
The guards nearby ruthlessly led them away.
The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was speechless. Was this prison a vegetable market? Could one go in and out as one pleased?
Some prisoners were actually happy; with these people being released, wouldn't that free up some spaces?
With new spots available, it was their turn to play, so the prisoners who were left behind were quite pleased.
Everyone in the cell was playing Werewolf and thoroughly enjoying it.
At this moment, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review also spoke up, "Lord Ye, you may leave now. Someone wants to see you."
Ye Yuwu had actually discovered the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review long ago, but she pretended not to see him and played Werewolf with the people in the prison.
Finally, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review couldn't hold back any longer and spoke.
Ye Yuwu then suppressed her playful nature, her smile faded, and she turned to look at the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review with an indifferent expression.
Seeing Ye Yuwu so serious and solemn for the first time, with eyes as sharp as a hawk, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review felt as if she could see right through him.
The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review felt a chill run down his spine.
Then Ye Yuwu spoke up, "Lead the way!"
Ye Yuwu turned to leave, but the prisoners were reluctant to let her go.
"Lord Ye, don't go! If you leave, how are we supposed to play Werewolf?" The prisoners couldn't help but cry out as Ye Yuwu was about to leave.
"You guys play first. You've already mastered the rules of the game even without me, so have fun!" Ye Yuwu waved to them, and then left with the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
Behind them came the mournful cries of tears, pleading for them to stay.
Ye Yuwu was ruthless and decisive.
Upon leaving the prison, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review couldn't help but speak first.
"Why did you come with me without asking any questions, Lord Ye?"
"Do I have a choice whether I leave or not?"
The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was taken aback by her bluntness.
"Judging from Lord Ye's expression, he seems to have already guessed who wants to see you."
"It seems the person who wants to see me is getting impatient." Ye Yuwu smiled.
In fact, not long after Ye Yuwu became the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
Besides the fact that her identity became known to everyone in Bianjing, causing everyone's shock, another matter quickly spread throughout Bianjing.
The newspaper originally founded by Zhiyu Bookstore was bought up at an extremely fast pace.
Ye Yuwu's newspaper has always been a way for ordinary people in Bianjing to learn about the world and the country, so many people buy it regularly, and the newspaper's sales have always been high and stable.
At one time, its authority surpassed that of the notices posted in the city government offices.
Many people are willing to believe them, and the newspapers have helped many people in need through their dissemination and public opinion.
For example, there are some people who have been wronged, and some poor people who need help.
Its positive image has always been good, and it is only natural that it enjoys the trust of the people.
So it appeared on the front page of the latest newspaper.
Everyone knows the pros and cons of bell peppers and white sugar.
It turns out that the reason they had sore throats and buttocks was because they ate too much pepper and needed to eat less. Peppers themselves are not poisonous; it's all just hearsay.
Simply taking herbs that reduce internal heat will suffice.
Also, white sugar can cause toothache if you eat too much of it, which is also because you don't brush your teeth in the morning and evening.
The newspaper also thoughtfully provided detailed information on this topic, including tips on the precautions for using chili peppers and white sugar, how to reduce internal heat, how to brush teeth, why brushing teeth is necessary, and how to protect dental health.
This enabled the people to instantly understand this knowledge.
Sure enough, these people did as the newspaper suggested, and soon their symptoms disappeared, as did their cursing of Wuming, also known as Ye Yuwu.
Those who had previously reported Ye Yuwu to the Dali Temple Minister were now wavering under public pressure.
The people outside urged the government to release Ye Yuwu.
The wind direction changed so quickly!
According to procedure, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review should have allowed her to appear in court one last time before releasing her.
But just as he was about to release Ye Yuwu, that person suddenly wanted to see Ye Yuwu.
While pondering this matter, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review led her into a room.
"Your Majesty, Lord Ye has arrived."
A screen blocked the view in the center of the room, but a bright yellow figure could be vaguely seen behind it.
The emperor, sitting behind the screen, softly hummed in agreement, and then said, "You may leave now."
"It's Your Majesty."
After hearing the emperor's order, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review carefully left the room and closed the door, leaving only the two of them inside.
Ye Yuwu bowed to His Majesty, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The emperor did not tell her to rise, but instead asked directly, "Did you deliberately expose your identity in this matter?"
"Your Majesty guessed it?" Ye Yuwu chuckled softly. "There was really no other way, Your Majesty. This was my only option."
Ye Yuwu admitted that she had planned to expose her identity long ago. The emperor had always wanted to hide her identity and let as few people as possible know about it.
In fact, not long after Ye Yuwu returned to Bianjing, she was secretly summoned by the emperor.
At that time, the emperor revealed his intention: he wanted her to marry his prince.
The emperor asked her to choose one of his many princes.
They said they were giving her a chance to choose freely, but in reality, she had no choice at all.
In that instant, Ye Yuwu seemed to guess the emperor's thoughts. The emperor wanted to completely control her and use her for his own purposes.
How could Ye Yuwu let the emperor succeed? She didn't want to be a pawn in the emperor's hands. She had actually foreseen this ending a long time ago, but she never expected that this day would still come.
But she didn't want to sit idly by and wait for death, nor did she want to be slaughtered, so she had to find a viable path for herself.
