Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 465: Only the Outcome Matters, Not the Process!

Chapter 465: Chapter 465: Only the Outcome Matters, Not the Process!

Nan Haitang was furious. Qi Yun was his lifesaver, and even more, he was regarded as a father, even if Qi Yun might never have taken him seriously.

But, that exalted Emperor was his sky!

Now, someone was cursing him!

Nan Haitang was extremely angry!

Li Qingmu felt a wave of dizziness; he was furious!

Nan Haitang was like that, how could he be any lesser?

He was even angrier, wasn’t he? So much that he was momentarily bewildered.

Since ancient times, how many palace concubines and heirs have died because of the Yansheng technique? Countless, like carp crossing the river. The Emperor is exalted, everyone wishes for eternity, and to curse the Emperor is truly seeking death.

Regardless of whether it’s true or false, every appearance of the Yansheng technique results in many deaths, turning the world upside down.

Therefore, Li Qingmu couldn’t believe it; was this person mad to actually do such a thing?

After a long time, Li Qingmu finally calmed down, but he was still gasping for breath. He didn’t speak and followed Nan Haitang.

They went all the way to the deepest part, and there was still a passage below. Gouzi led the way, Nan Haitang and two others followed, and Li Qingmu waited above.

Soon, all sorts of cries, pleas for help came from below, from those trafficked children.

Li Qingmu’s face was icy cold, his gaze like the Grim Reaper, observing everything here.

This wicked place should be completely buried!

"Be careful, pull them up!"

Children gradually ran out of the passage entrance, and everyone hurried to pull them up one by one.

"Waa, waa, please save us, sob sob..."

"Big brother, save us..."

These children were crying continuously, it was noisy here.

Among them, the youngest was only three years old, crying the hardest, the oldest was thirteen, with bright eyes studying the place.

"Don’t look here, it’s horrifying!"

Li Qingmu frowned and said sternly, urging everyone to take the children away.

These children, after the initial fear, gradually quieted down and lined up to leave with them.

Exiting the cave, Li Qingmu ordered large stacks of hay and firewood to be placed at the cave entrance, almost sealing it tightly.

This was a hillside, the vegetation on the side was not very lush, Li Qingmu had people remove all nearby flammable vegetation, clearing an empty space, then ordered to set fire.

With his command, the entrance of the cave blazed with fire, the dry weather caused the flame to quickly cover the entrance.

"Roaring!"

Flames burned incessantly, thick smoke billowed out, some rising outside, others pouring into the cave, soon fierce howling sounds emerged from inside, even the screeching sound of nails scratching the fence could be heard.

"Mr. Li truly has courage, daring to make such a decision. If it were someone else, they would probably be at a loss, report to the court, and leave the decision to them!"

Nan Haitang looked at Li Qingmu with admiration.

This cave held too much filth, it was not good to let outsiders see it, once leaked, it would damage the Emperor’s reputation.

Li Qingmu set it ablaze, seemingly cruel, but effectively preserving the imperial authority, with great merit.

Li Qingmu said lightly, "The people inside have already completely lost their minds, becoming tools of others. What’s the use of keeping them? If those Undead were massively produced, they wouldn’t just harm one land, it could be the entire Dazhou Dynasty!"

Nan Haitang nodded, it was true, but how many would really dare to do this?

Once such things are known, people wouldn’t care about the reasons behind it, only seeing the negative side, saying you’re cruel and inhuman, heartless.

Yet he still did it.

This is why Nan Haitang admired this prince.

A tiger father without a dog son!

Li Qingmu held a scroll of parchment, the ink still fresh, it was just printed.

This altar looked ancient, and the mysterious illustrations and text on it, he thought it should be carefully investigated later.

"Let’s go!"

Having dealt with the place, everyone left with the rescued group of over thirty children.

"Uncle, we initially had over a hundred people, but later, every time thirty or so were taken, gradually there were only us left."

On the journey, Li Qingmu kept asking questions.

He was about to become a father himself, his mindset had slightly changed, feeling more sympathy for these children.

"Do those people often come here?"

"No, they occasionally come once, take some of us away to other places, supposedly for training, then it takes a long time before they come again."

This was a thirteen-year-old girl, her big eyes clear, appearing well-behaved as she answered Li Qingmu’s questions.

"Alright! Do you still remember your homes?"

"Sob sob..."

Among the group, some children choked up, gradually breaking into tears, while many remained silent.

Li Qingmu was silent.

These children were so young, taken directly from their homes, how could they remember the way back?

Nan Haitang said, "Mr. Li, later let Wang Qi and his crew ask which ones can recall their homes, even any clue, then try to send them back, if there’s no way, they can be placed in local households."

"I don’t want to stay with others, I want to go back to my parents, waa waa..."

Upon hearing they might be sent away, several young children immediately cried loudly.

Li Qingmu had a headache. Kids seemed fun, but who would’ve thought raising them would be so hard? Will his future children be like this?

"Let’s go, Wang Qi should have returned by now, let him handle these children."

Even though Li Qingmu felt sympathy for the children, he didn’t want to get involved, so he directly passed the responsibility to Wang Qi.

Wang Qi brought back a chest of gold and silver from Fan Yongchang, and upon seeing Li Qingmu, looked embarrassed and even panicked: "Mr. Li, I just wanted to get close to them, then find out what I wanted..."

He said awkwardly, his face flushed.

He saw Li Qingmu’s face was slightly dark; he couldn’t be angry, could he?

Please no!

Wang Qi inwardly lamented, just as Li Qingmu stepped aside, behind him, a group of children led by Nan Haitang came in.

"Mr. Wang, these are rescued children, you handle them later. Those who can find their parents, send them back; those who can’t, place them locally, and failing that, bring them back!"

Wang Qi was dumbfounded, looking at the more than thirty children, his scalp tingling, dizzy with the desire to cry.

However, Li Qingmu’s following words made him want to cough up blood.

"Very good, you managed to get so many good things from that corrupt official! Lord Nan, later take them back and enrich the National Treasury!"

"I accept the order!"

I... Damn it!

Wang Qi really wanted to curse; is this man truly an Imperial Censor? How peculiarly does he conduct himself?

Initially thinking he’d taken a chest of items, he would be furious, considering how to explain, but instead received praise?

Wang Qi wasn’t foolish, he felt the praise wasn’t sincere, quickly apologized.

Li Qingmu waved his hand, "Sending you this time was to stall Fan Yongchang. Your task is now complete; as for the process, I don’t inquire!" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

What? Only care about results, not process?

Wang Qi was utterly disordered in the wind...
