Chapter 1065 (Beautiful Eyes)
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi have been introducing the Voidless Empire as if it were a historical landmark.
Le Jing listened with great interest, finding the management methods here quite novel.
On the other hand, Ye Juetian had disappeared as if he were a child. But given his size, he couldn't get lost.
Upon Ye Hua's appearance, the citizens immediately bowed, shouting, "Long live the Emperor! May the Empress be auspicious!"
Of course, they also included Le Jing.
Ye Hua naturally accompanied his mother for a stroll. It was evidence of Ye Hua's filial piety, a rare sight.
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi had witnessed Ye Hua's transformation over the years. Before, it seemed like Ye Hua was indifferent to everyone, not really paying attention. Now, even when looking at the citizens, a different kind of care would appear in his eyes, as if he was concerned about everyone's well-being.
This is what a good man looks like.
Ye Juetian was currently exploring the Voidless Empire alone. However...
Everyone thought Ye Juetian was the Emperor, and they all kneeled, shouting, "Long live the Emperor!"
There was no way around it. Ye Hua and Ye Juetian looked identical. For those who weren't familiar with them, it was impossible to distinguish between the two.
Ye Juetian was helpless, being mistaken for his big brother again. He was used to it.
However, at this moment, Ye Juetian heard some unusual noise. It seemed something was not right.
Following the source of the sound, Ye Juetian approached and saw a group of children spinning around, with a figure in the centre.
When people around saw Ye Juetian, they first hesitated, then quickly knelt down, shouting, "Long live the Emperor!"
Ye Juetian really didn't know how to explain. If he did, wouldn't it be embarrassing for his big brother? It was awkward.
Helpless, Ye Juetian waved his hand and experienced the thrill of being an Emperor. Thus, following his big brother was the right path.
The children, upon seeing the Emperor, quickly knelt in reverence.
"What's going on?" Ye Juetian imitated his big brother's demeanour and tone, lowering his voice.
It turned out he looked surprisingly similar, using about sixty percent of his Ye Hua's style.
Ye Juetian frowned as he looked at the woman lying on the ground. What's wrong with this woman?
At this moment, a gorgeously dressed man walked over and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, this woman... she's... quite strange."
The man didn't know how to describe it better, so he could only use "strange."
But indeed, it's quite strange.
"Strange? How strange?" Ye Juetian curiously asked, walking toward the woman. It did feel a bit odd. After all, he was the Emperor now. How could she lie on the ground without paying respects? Wasn't she afraid of losing her head?
The man explained respectfully on the side, and Ye Juetian finally understood. It turned out she was a 'foolish' woman.
Looking at the dirty woman before him, Ye Juetian felt helpless. Should he intervene? If he didn't, she would continue being mocked here. But if he did, would his status allow it?
A real dilemma.
The woman lying on the ground seemed to sense someone nearby and slowly raised her head, looking at Ye Juetian.
While Ye Juetian, lost in thought, also looked at the woman, their eyes met.
Ye Juetian gazed into the woman's eyes. These eyes were truly beautiful, like clear spring water, free from any impurity.
However, apart from her eyes, there was not a single clean spot on the woman's body.
Looking into the woman's eyes, Ye Juetian pursed his lips. How could someone with such lively eyes be a fool? It was really strange.
The woman glanced at Ye Juetian, then slowly lowered her head again, displaying a helpless look that made Ye Juetian conflicted.
If his big brother found out that he picked up a sloppy woman on the street and brought her back, he would surely be scolded. Even his mother might give him a lecture.
Indeed, in the hearts of Le Jing and Ye Hua, a woman worthy of Ye Juetian should be outstanding. But was a woman like this suitable?
Ye Juetian pondered and decided to lend a hand. Lying in the middle of the street like this was not a good image.
He would see what the problem was and then solve it. After all, he was an Overlord meant to bring blessings. How could he ignore someone in need?
"Can you still move?" Ye Juetian asked softly.
The woman gently bit her lip, saying nothing.
"I'm asking if you can still move?" Ye Juetian felt speechless. 'Did you really not want to give face to the Emperor? Were you that arrogant just because you had beautiful eyes? Just because your eyes are charming, doesn't mean I'll be swayed.'
If Ye Hua found out he rescued such a woman from the street...
He sighed and asked again, "Can you still move?"
The woman nodded slowly.
"Follow me," Ye Juetian said quietly.
The woman struggled to prop herself up. She looked weak, standing as if she might fall at any moment, as if she hadn't eaten for many days.
Ye Juetian sighed and walked ahead.The woman behind hobbled along, frowning with each step as if in pain.
However, when Ye Juetian, walking in front, turned to look, he found that the woman was moving so slowly. Watching her limp along was truly exasperating.
With a flick of his finger, a white light shot into the woman's body. This visibly eased her discomfort.
Surrounding onlookers were astonished to see the Emperor actually helping this woman. They marvelled at the kindness of the Emperor, thinking he might have her expelled.
Choosing a high-end restaurant, Ye Juetian entered, and the owner, upon seeing him, hastily knelt in reverence.
"Prepare a room, warm water, and clean clothes, the kind for women," Ye Juetian instructed.
"As you wish, Your Majesty. I'll prepare them right away." The owner dared not say much and hurried to make the arrangements.
Yet, Ye Juetian noticed the woman standing outside the restaurant, seemingly hesitant to come in.
"Come in, what are you standing there for?" Ye Juetian helplessly shouted. Was this woman really so clueless?
The woman looked at the restaurant and clearly knew she couldn't afford it. Moreover, she might get beaten.
"I told you to come in, did you hear me?" Ye Juetian raised his voice; he had to repeat himself every time.
The woman was startled and could only obey, walking into the restaurant, emitting a scent that made people wrinkle their noses.
Even Ye Juetian furrowed his brow. It had been a long time since she had a bath.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready," the owner respectfully informed.
"Lead the way," Ye Juetian commanded.
"Please follow me, Your Majesty."
Ye Juetian led the woman to the most luxurious room.
"You go take a bath first, then change your clothes; these are clean ones." Ye Juetian calmly said, occasionally glancing at her eyes, which were indeed quite charming.
The woman stood there in silence, leaving Ye Juetian feeling a headache.
"Should I help you bathe?" Ye Juetian asked in exasperation.
The woman shook her head.
"Then hurry up and go." Ye Juetian said with frustration.
The woman bit her lip slightly, took the clean clothes, and walked behind the screen.
