Chapter 17: The Emperor Is Old
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Even though news of Zhou Yi’s death spread, no one made things difficult for him when he came back. The prison guards cheered when he showed off his technique.
Warden Liu praised, “Old Zhou is a nostalgic person. Little Yu, you don’t have to escort prisoners. You can just deliver food with Old Zhou.”
Little Yu’s name was Yu Jie, a 17 or 18-year-old youth. He had not been tainted by the gloomy aura of the Sky Prison for a few months. Just like when Zhou Yi first came to the Sky Prison back then, he stood obediently behind the prison guards and said little.
Zhou Yi smiled. “He’s been in the Sky Prison for too long and am used to the smell here.”
“We’ll welcome Old Zhou at Spring Breeze Tower tonight.” Lieutenant Zhu put his arm around Zhou Yi’s shoulder and said in a low voice, “The prison hasn’t been peaceful recently. People keep seeing ghosts at night. Old Zhou, you’re a great expert now. Keep an eye out!”
“I’ll do that.”
Previously, Zhou Yi had been cautious. Now that he had advanced to the Connate Grandmaster realm, he could let go a little. His day went without any troubles.
Nightfall came.
The Sky Prison’s guards changed their clothes, and they went straight to Spring Breeze Tower.
Zhou Yi asked, “Old Feng, I heard you say that you have a fierce wife at home. Have you become more carefree now?”
“Old Zhou, you still don’t know?” Lieutenant Zhu winked and said, “This fellow bought a pair of twins at the brokerage and secretly raised them in the Divine Capital. I don’t know who let out the news, but his wife from the county came and caused a scene…”
“I originally saw that the woman had some money at home, so I tolerated her.” Feng Qiao said in embarrassment, “That money is nothing now. So I found an excuse and divorced her!”
The benefits of the Sky Prison were more than ten times or a hundred times higher than that of the county prison. If they found an opportunity to escort an exiled criminal, they would earn more money than the county prison could earn for a few years.
Zhou Yi did not persuade him to abandon his wife. He only has a shallow relationship with him, it’s best not to say anything. He knew that Feng Qiao would not have an easy time in the future when he saw his colleagues’ disdain hidden in their eyes, even though they were smiling. After becoming rich, he divorced his wife. Who dared to work with him?
“How are the twins?”
“Young and very smooth!”
Feng Qiao was not blind. He could naturally tell that his colleagues despised him. But so what? As long as he did not care about his reputation and future, it really did not affect anything.
After not coming for half a year, Spring Breeze Tower had changed its Flower Queen again.
When the procuress saw Zhou Yi, she immediately beamed. “Master Zhou, you haven’t been here in a while.”
He was an old customer for 21 years. Although Zhou Yi did not fight for the Flower Queen and did not casually reward people, the money he spent in Spring Breeze Tower over the years was enough to buy a residence in the capital.
These loyal customers were the foundation of the Spring Breeze Tower!
Zhou Yi smiled and said, “What is the program today?”
“Of course it’s Master Zhou’s favorite!”
The procuress summoned the clerk and gave him a few instructions. She took down the current program, replacing it with Drunken Spring.
The new Flower Queen was a big-chested woman. Her red lips were slightly parted as she sang softly, “… Gently push the boy, it hurts… Arms around each other, move…”
