Chapter 2088 The greatest luck

Xiao Yichen waved his hand and said, "I'll take you to the inn now."

Ruyi nodded, changed her clothes with Shui Lingyue, disguised herself and then went to the inn with Xiao Yichen, who sent her up there.

Xiao Yichen gave Ruyi, then returned to Shui Lingyue. Seeing that she had no smile on her face, she asked, "Yueyue, what's wrong?"

Shui Lingyue said: "That Ruyi... is such a good girl, so I'll ruin Chu Yi."

Xiao Yichen didn't expect that Shui Lingyue was thinking about this in her heart. After thinking about it, she said, "It's better for her to be ruined by Chu Yi than if you were in the same room with that guy."

Shui Lingyue suddenly looked at Xiao Yichen and said, "After this matter, we must not treat Ruyi unfairly."

Xiao Yichen smiled and said, "Don't worry, she is the greatest luck she can survive and be selected as your substitute."

"What do you mean?" Shui Lingyue asked very curiously.

Xiao Yichen said: "Her parents were originally sinners from the previous dynasty. They were killed by the whole family because they committed a serious crime. However, according to the laws of the Northern Qi Dynasty, children under the age of five were not included in the scope of the execution. Therefore, she was exiled from a young age and became a military prostitute.

Later, because I had to deal with Chu Yi, I asked me to choose the right candidate among those women, and she chose it like this. Whether it is height, figure, or face shape, they are very similar to Yueyue, so we chose her. As long as she can complete this task, she can break away from her original humble household registration and become a free person.

Isn't this the greatest luck for her?"

Shui Lingyue suddenly realized, but she still felt a little sad in her heart. She sighed softly and said, "Actually, why did she blame her?"

When Xiao Yichen heard her sigh, he couldn't help but feel panicked and said, "Yueyue, how can you sigh for other people's lives?"

Shui Lingyue said: "Yi, now you are the master of Northern Qi and have become their masters. Then, they cannot call them others."

Xiao Yichen was a little confused and asked, "Yueyue, just say whatever you want to say, we two don't need to beat around the bush."

Shui Lingyue nodded and said, "When her parents committed a crime, she was not yet five years old. What crime does such a child have? Yi, I think, should our law be revised again? Whoever sins and whoever bears responsibility will not be held even."

Xiao Yichen only thought that Shui Lingyue's view was too novel. After thinking about it, he said, "There is an old saying that if you cut grass without eradicating the roots, the spring breeze will resurrect again. Therefore, once you are involved in the crime of rebellion, any country will implicate the nine tribes. Our Northern Qi is still kind. If you are five years old, you will leave them a way out."

Shui Lingyue shook her head and said, "Men are slaves all their lives, while women are military prostitutes. For them, although they live, they still have a hard life. Isn't it? They are not guilty, so why should they pay for their parents?"

Xiao Yichen didn't know why Yueyue suddenly talked about the issue of the law to him today. He thought about it and said, "Yueyue, the matter of the law is very important. After we go back, we will talk to the ministers and discuss it slowly. We can't talk about it now, so let's talk later, okay?"

Shui Lingyue also realized that she was a little excited because of the differences between the times they lived in. After all, it is normal for the two eras to be different after thousands of years apart.
