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

Chapter 268 Ye Wuwei Controls the Ship

On the second day, officials from the Yuwen faction in the court all implicated Ye Wuwei.

It is said that Ye Wuwei is lawless and arbitrarily destroyed other people's property, and he should be severely punished.

Perhaps Ye Wuwei's act of bombing Fengdu angered the public and made the officials uneasy. Soon after, not only the people from the Zhuang faction, but also many officials from the Qi faction reported Ye Wuwei together.

The officials of the Andu faction only knew that Ye Wuwei had taken 500 people from the Qi'an tribe out to carry out a mission, but they had no idea what the mission was.

They all looked at Chu Fu Chi, waiting for his instructions, but Chu Fu Chi didn't say a word, so they all fell silent.

An official directly questioned Shui Changqing at the court meeting:

"As the Chief Censor of the Metropolitan Censorate, what do you think of Ye Wuwei's behavior?"

Everyone looked at Shui Changqing.

Now everyone knows that Ye Wuwei calls Shui Changqing Master and Shui Changqing has joined Qi Wushuang.

Everyone originally thought that Shui Changqing would speak for Ye Wuwei, but Shui Changqing said righteously:

"If Commander Ye really blows up Fengdu at will, we must not condone it.

But we don't know where Commander Ye is right now. Why not wait until he returns to Chamdo before questioning him?"

Seeing that Shui Changqing did not favor Ye Wuwei, everyone did not want to question Shui Changqing, but Master Zhuang said:

"Even if we don't know where Commander Ye is, we can issue a nationwide arrest warrant for him."

Shui Changqing directly opposed:

"If Commander Ye had committed a crime, he should be wanted, but Fengdu was bombed, and there is no evidence to prove that Commander Ye was responsible.

What if it's a misunderstanding? Wouldn't that chill his feelings? "

By the time Yuwen Taishi and his men "fabricated" evidence, the incident on the island had been exposed.

By then, he could just find an excuse for Wu Wei to blow up Fengdu.

At that time, everyone's focus would not be on Ye Wuwei's bombing of Fengdu, but on the Yuwen family's crime of "treason".

Chu Fuchi followed up Shui Changqing's words and expressed his opinion:

"I agree with the Water Capital Censor's words. We will make a final decision on this matter after Commander Ye returns to Chamdo.

If it is really Commander Ye who is acting recklessly, he should be held accountable."

After Chu Fuchi expressed his opinion, Qi Guangren, Qi Yushen and others echoed him.

Seeing that Chu Fuchi and his men did not blindly favor Ye Wuwei, and Qi Wushuang did not make excuses for Ye Wuwei, the other officials lost their focus and could only temporarily stop their actions.

After Ye Wuwei and his companions waited at the seashore for two days, they saw a "five-story ship" coming from the direction of the island.

There was only one boat coming this time, and they were still here to buy daily necessities such as fish, shrimp, fruits and vegetables.

After the ship docked and the people on board got off, Ye Wuyi gave an order and five hundred soldiers quickly took control of the entire ship and everyone on board.

Ye Wuwei said to the frightened fishermen:

"We are imperial soldiers from Chamdo. Thirty thousand civilians are being held captive on the southern islands as free laborers. We are here to rescue them.

To prevent accidental injuries, please don't go to the beach recently.

You can go home on your own now."

Ye Wuwei had originally planned to have the soldiers of Qi'an's army disguised as fishermen and wait at the beach, but he later gave up the plan.

Because the fishermen selling things at the seaside are men, women, young and old, if they are suddenly all replaced by young and strong men and there is not a single familiar face, it may arouse suspicion from the people on the ship.

After Ye Wuwei finished speaking, the fishermen rushed away.

Ye Hongxia whispered to Ye Wuwei, "Except for the crew, no one else can be left alive."

Ye Wuwei knew what Ye Hongxia meant by this sentence:

Today is like a battlefield. Regardless of whether the other party is guilty or not, they are all enemies.

Being soft on the enemy on the battlefield is being cruel to yourself.

But Ye Wuwei did not define them in this way in his mind.

In Ye Wuwei's mind, they were accomplices.

However, the situation is special now. Ye Wuwei and his men are about to face enemies that are more than ten times their number, so it is okay to fight on the spot.

After bringing everyone on board, Ye Wuwei asked, "Who is the crew member?"

A few people responded hesitantly.

"As long as you sail for us honestly, I can let you go afterward. Do you agree?"

These people agreed.

Ye Hongxia took out a few pills from her body and said, "This is poison. I will give you the antidote after this is over."

A few people ate it hesitantly.

At this time, a few more people saw that the situation was not right and shouted:

"We were also arrested as civilians. We were assigned to work in the kitchen because of our excellent cooking skills. We have done nothing wrong."

After hearing what the others said, Ye Hongxia took out a few more poison pills from her body:

"I can't tell your identities right now. Please take the poison first. We'll decide how to deal with you after we find out your identities."

These people quickly took the medicine and took it.

Ye Wuwei asked these people: "Are there any other people left who were captured like you?"

"Gone."

Ye Wuwei looked at the rest of the people:

"So, you're all working for the Yuwen clan? The 30,000 people abducted from the island are inextricably linked to you."

Someone replied: "We are also following orders."

Ye Hongxia was afraid that Ye Wuwei would be soft-hearted at this time, so she continued:

"The Yuwen clan is guilty of treason. Even if you were just following orders, you should be killed."

Ye Wuwei said in his heart:

Judging from what Yuwen has done so far, it would be a bit of an exaggeration to charge him with treason, but he did have the intention to commit treason.

But Ye Wuwei would not say this out loud, but would only think about it silently in his heart.

This is the difference between people living in modern legal society and those in ancient times.

People living in a modern legal society, even if they know that it is impossible for everyone to be truly equal, will still have the mark of "equality for all" engraved in their bones.

But in the minds of the ancients, hierarchy and class were the marks engraved in their bones.

Thinking that the next 500 people would have to deal with thousands of guards on the island, Ye Wuwei finally hardened his heart:

"Kill them all."

Yao Guangzhi and his men carried out the order without any hesitation.

Ye Wuwei forced himself not to blink as he watched the murder, but he still reminded himself in his heart:

Don’t be completely assimilated just because you have come to ancient times. You still have to respect life!
