What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? - Chapter 55

Inside the Great Qian Imperial Palace.

Arranged by Li Ruowang.

She, Ye Yu, and Ye Nian had dinner together.

All palace maids were dismissed.

Ye Yu looked around and found everything extremely familiar.

After all, he had been trapped here for many years in the dream realm.

Returning here again, Ye Yu felt deeply moved.

In truth, he shouldn’t have come.

Because once he entered through this door, the experiences in the dream would become his future.

But the phrase “family of three” truly touched Ye Yu.

However, he had also made up his mind.

As long as the dream system still existed, there would be endless possibilities.

With a bit of luck, before long, he could leave here upright and proper.

Of course, before leaving, Ye Yu planned to give Li Ruowang a good lesson.

He naturally wouldn’t kill her, but a little spanking was definitely on the table.

Hmm.

Making Li Ruowang wear dragon robes while being spanked, that would truly set the mood.

Ye Yu glanced at Li Ruowang beside him, a playful smile on his face.

Ye Nian rested her chin on her hands and softly asked, “Daddy, Daddy, why are you staring at Queen Mother?”

This question instantly made Ye Yu feel deeply ashamed.

He had been lost in wild thoughts, and even his daughter had noticed?

“N-nothing, Daddy was just thinking about something, not staring at your mother.”

Facing Ye Yu’s firm denial, Li Ruowang remained very calm.

“Nian’er, don’t talk nonsense. Eat your food quietly!”

Ye Nian nodded immediately, and started eating seriously.

Ye Yu couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, he heard a voice in his mind.

“After all these years, haven’t you seen enough? Even with your daughter beside you, you still can’t restrain yourself.”

“There will be plenty of chances for you to see!”

These words immediately made Ye Yu’s heart race.

Chances to see?

What did she mean by that?

Was this a serious suggestion?

Half an hour later, the family of three happily finished their dinner.

As arranged by Li Ruowang, Ye Nian was taken away by the palace maids to rest.

And Li Ruowang also fulfilled her promise, allowing Ye Yu to thoroughly see everything.

The two rekindled their old feelings.

But unlike the warmth of the palace, a massacre erupted within the capital of the Great Qian Dynasty.

All officials and cultivators who chose to betray during the Ascension Platform battle were wiped out, along with their families.

All officials associated with the Prince of Zhen Nan were executed without exception.

For a time, the capital was filled with cries and wails.

This day once again showcased the ruthless methods of the Empress of Great Qian.

Inside the Ascension Platform, everyone who persisted until the end received generous rewards. Especially the civil officials who showed integrity and backbone.

In the political arena, they all took a significant step forward.

Ye Liangyan, the head of the civil officials, was granted the title of marquis on the spot.

Life’s ups and downs were too swift, leaving even Lord Ye a bit stunned.

He could only sigh sincerely. The Empress’s strategic depth far exceeded that of ordinary people. She had long seen through the Zhen Nan Prince’s plot but did not reveal it.

Instead, she involved herself deeply, plotting the Ascension Platform event, using the hands of rebel forces to cleanse the entire court.

Anyone wavering in their loyalty found no place to hide.

Such methods were indeed remarkably shrewd.

However, throughout it all, Ye Liangyan couldn’t figure out one thing.

Who exactly was Ye Yu, whom the Empress had spoken of earlier?

Why did she hold such regard for him?

…

The next morning.

When Ye Yu walked out of the Great Qian Imperial Palace, he felt as if he were dreaming.

That woman actually didn’t detain him.

Instead, she let him leave.

Yesterday, Ye Yu and Li Ruowang spent the night studying calligraphy. The phrase “absence makes the heart grow fonder” was fully embodied.

But what surprised Ye Yu was that after they finished studying, Li Ruowang directly told him he could leave.

At the time, Ye Yu was a bit puzzled.

What exactly did Li Ruowang mean by this?

Until he was clearly told that he could freely leave the palace and do whatever he wanted, as long as he occasionally came back to see his daughter.

This answer left Ye Yu utterly baffled.

Was this still the Li Ruowang he knew?

Why was she being so open about this?

Wait a minute, this was definitely a trap!

Yet, as Ye Yu walked out of the palace gates, no one stopped him.

Could it be…

Li Ruowang had truly changed?

Ye Yu turned around, seeing Li Ruowang standing atop the palace walls, watching him leave.

After a moment of contemplation, he skeptically asked, “Are you planning to fall in love with someone else after I leave?”

Upon hearing this, Li Ruowang choked in disbelief.

In an instant, she appeared below, grabbing Ye Yu’s sleeve and pulling him back toward the palace.

“You, you’re so shameless! How can you say such things? The principle of choosing one person for life, I understand better than anyone.”

“Since you don’t believe it, then stay here. Let me show you whether I would really fall in love with someone else!”

“No no no, I was just joking, trying to lighten the mood, don’t take it seriously. I’m leaving now!”

Ye Yu shook off Li Ruowang’s hand, darting away into the distance.

Watching his departing figure, Li Ruowang’s chest heaved with suppressed anger.

This is Ye Yu’s privilege.

If anyone else dared to speak to her like that, they would have met their end right then and there.

The main reason why Li Ruowang let Ye Yu leave so generously was because she didn’t want the tragedy of the dream to happen again.

Falling for someone else, this kind of thing should only happen once.

How could there be a second time?

Although deep down, Li Ruowang really wanted to imprison Ye Yu again in the palace, her rational mind restrained her from doing so.

Some things need to be done gradually.

One day, Li Ruowang would make Ye Yu willingly stay in the palace and be with her day and night.

And she had a feeling that this day wasn’t too far away.

A smile appeared on Li Ruowang’s face.

She flicked her sleeves and walked leisurely back into the palace.

Moments later, the disciples of Azure Cloud Sect began their journey back.

Ye Yu sat at the end of the spirit boat, holding a token in his hand.

He was lost in thought.

The token was entirely golden, engraved with the characters “Great Qian” on the front.

It was called the Great Qian Token.

With this token, it was as if the Empress herself had given orders, commanding all cultivators and warriors of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Li Ruowang had handed it to him this morning.

Yet Ye Yu couldn’t understand.

Why was Li Ruowang so magnanimous this time, letting him leave cleanly and without any entanglements?

As he pondered, Yun Roumu approached.

She asked softly, “Junior Brother, what did you do yesterday? You didn’t return from the imperial palace all night?”

After the battle on the Ascension Platform yesterday, and not seeing Ye Yu throughout, Yun Roumu had been very anxious.

So she immediately sent all the disciples of Azure Cloud Sect to search.

By nightfall, eunuchs from the Great Qian Dynasty came to visit, telling Yun Roumu to restrain the disciples of Azure Cloud Sect.

They shouldn’t wander around casually. Their esteemed disciple, Zhao Wuji, was currently in the palace, so there was no need to worry about his safety.

When Yun Roumu heard this, she was completely baffled.
