Wen Li was overthinking things, but Xie Zhan clearly no longer cared.
Becoming emperor was not what he wanted. If he could, he would rather be an unfavored prince in the cold palace for the rest of his life. If he was lucky, his emperor father might give him the title of a vassal king after he came of age. After that, he would never come back and just live a life of idleness and waiting to die.
So what if his lifespan wasn't over? He still died.
But the thought that his beloved concubine was still waiting for him completely dispelled Xie Zhan's sadness and resentment at that moment.
After leaving the Fengdu Service Hall, the two continued walking out, and this time, some underworld officials came to pick them up.

"Did this child die so young? Did he become the Black Impermanence after he died?"
Xie Zhan was holding a little girl in his arms. She was wearing a black robe and a black hat with the four big characters "Get rich, get rich" written on the hat.

"Once you cross the Bridge of Helplessness, you can be reincarnated. What's your number?" Xiao Hei Wuchang's voice was soft and sweet, especially the slightly upturned ending tone, which made Xie Zhan find it adorable.
He casually mentioned a number, and Xiao Hei Wuchang immediately exclaimed, "Then it will be a long time before he can be reincarnated."
Xie Zhan said anxiously, "I didn't come here mainly to be reincarnated. Your Great Emperor said my wife is waiting for me, but..."
Xie Zhan looked around and saw that, apart from the vengeful ghosts lining up to be reincarnated, there was only an old man with silver hair and wearing a delicate pink dress.
Xie Zhan was taken aback, his eyes fixed on the old woman, and his legs involuntarily walked towards her.
