Princess Ji came to pay her respects upon hearing the news.
The shirtless guards who saw the performance looked like they wanted to eat the person alive.
"Waaah, the Empress Dowager is eating so well..."
"System, I like that fair-skinned guy, like my old idol."
"Oh dear, my son is getting married soon, I'm going to leave the palace and enjoy myself!"
"I need to find ten!"
"Fine, five will do!"
"Never mind, three it is!"
"Sigh, one is enough. Too many people will make us too conspicuous."
"If I don't like it anymore, I can just change it! Hehehe~"
Sherry almost burst out laughing as she listened to Princess Ji's long-awaited rambling.
"What are your thoughts on this talent show? What type of person does Hongxuan like?"
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects! May Your Majesty be well!" Upon hearing this, Consort Ji's eyes lit up, and she greeted the Empress Dowager with a broad smile.
"You're so particular about this!" Sherry handed her a bowl of fruit salad.
"Of course, unlike my sister, who left me behind and left so fast that I couldn't catch up with her!"
At this point, Princess Ji still felt somewhat aggrieved, and she didn't stop talking.
After all, she genuinely felt that the two of them were good friends.
The favorability of the concubines towards her would drop from time to time, but the Empress Dowager was always calm and her actions were touching!
Sherry: You think you can catch up with me? I'm keeping a mistress in my golden cage!
"Now that Hongxuan is engaged, you can also go out of the palace to travel!"
Princess Ji was overjoyed and couldn't stop smiling.
He didn't spoil the mood by saying he wanted to travel with Sydney!
Those who know, know!
Soon, Halahazi finished reviewing the list of candidates and then showed it to Sherry.
After reading it, Shirley handed it to Hongjun, who then selected 70 of them!
Sherry looked at him with disgust!
"You're something else! Where there are many women, there's bound to be trouble. If you dare to let women affect the government, I'll chop off your little pecker!"
Hongjun pouted, looking aggrieved.
“My son thinks they are all beautiful in their own way and can be painted! So we’ll paint a masterpiece and name it ‘Feast of Flowers’.”
Hongjun said with a smug look on his face, "And there are also Hongxuan's five, Fifth Brother's, and the royal princes'..."
Hongjun counted on his fingers, and Halahachi smiled and said, "Stop counting, you approve today's memorials!" With that, he pulled him away to approve the memorials.
After resting for two days, Sherry and her two children began their final selection of female contestants.
Hongjun waved his fan and muttered repeatedly, "I must punish that painter! A fraud!"
Halahazi looked around, selected the ones she didn't like, and left early.
This is to prevent her from implementing new policies in the future; we must be wary of her whispers.
For this reason, Halahazi even studied physiognomy!
Then, Shirley bestowed upon Hongxuan a wife from the Guarjia clan, two secondary wives from the Zhang and Wang clans, and two princesses!
She also bestowed two more princesses upon Hongzhou, one surnamed Li and the other surnamed Wang.
Next up are the princes of the royal family!
Hongjun looked around and kept more than ten for himself!
The empress was a Han Chinese woman surnamed Shi, and the others were mostly noble ladies, ladies-in-waiting, or ladies-in-waiting.
After Hongjun's wedding, Shirley left the palace with Princess Gil.
The two parted ways on the road.
Sydney stayed near Mount Tai and received news from the capital every now and then.
Hongxuan began leading his troops westward, while Hongchang was keen on road construction and infrastructure building.
The regent married three men.
The empress advocated for women to take the imperial examinations and encouraged women to leave their homes.
Hongjun either showered his sister with compliments or praised the Empress.
Several years later, the Qing Dynasty's territory was even larger, and its national defense was even stronger.
Sherry stayed with the children for a few days and then left!
He left a letter at his residence and then prepared to do something.
On a deserted island, he attempted to transcend tribulation, but before he even began, he felt an intense gaze upon him.
Sherry's soul entered the secret realm first, and she saw that the body gradually disappear.
It's like an eraser has wiped away the marks on a painting!
To Sherry's surprise, she followed the unknown gaze and saw Consort Ji in the Jiangnan water town.
"Warning! Warning! Host, evacuate immediately! We've been discovered!"
"Found another outsider disrupting order? Or is the other party using deception to mislead and confuse the public?"
Sherry murmured in confusion upon hearing the voice.
Then, Princess Ji suddenly suffered a heart attack and died!
Sherry saw a baby-faced little girl being taken away by the system.
So, she was the one they were originally targeting?!
Sherry thought it was unlikely, after all, she had died of old age, if she wanted to keep an eye on things, she would have done so long ago.
so?
Sherry was confused, but after she died, she heard the system meowing from the other side of the grove.
System: Task completion rate SS level, 1000 points. Cumulative points. Merit level 6.
System: Hey! The old man's here!
"Stop using that awful voice of yours!" Sherry passed through the forest and went to another world.
System: Hey, great demon! Your death this time is anything but ordinary!
"Yes, I originally wanted to find a small island to undergo my tribulation, but I was targeted by the Heavenly Dao of the small world. Moreover, the other host with the system also ran away!"
System: I've checked, you're indeed being targeted. Don't kill the emperor. Besides, I suspect that mission taker only went in because I couldn't go with you. We systems have an unwritten rule: one small world, one conqueror. Even if we leave them and go elsewhere, it's fine. If we appear simultaneously and everyone's safe and sound, that's fine. But if we fight because of mission conflicts, we're all finished!
Sherry nodded.
"If I protect Yongzheng and his son exposes his ambitions and is killed by him, it's not my fault, is it?!"
A certain system: Just don't strangle him yourself!
Sherry is relieved now!
I was just about to sit under a tree and close my eyes to rest.
I felt an unbearable itching sensation all over my body.
Even after eating several fruits, Snow Pear still felt unwell, so she immediately transformed into her true form!
System: Good heavens, host, you're terrifying!
"Are you blind?!" Sherry exclaimed angrily, wrapping the dog tightly around her arm.
The system cat stuck out its tongue and complained, "Yeah, I thought you'd just get rid of your tail, but instead, you just disappeared with your upper body and left with a head! Seriously, you look so scary, waaaaah..."
"Ha!" Sherry ignored it. "No taste!"
While cursing, Sherry climbed up a big tree and rubbed against it. She quickly transformed into her true form and then discovered that her four claws had become bigger and harder.
No wonder it couldn't maintain its human form for long.
"You idiot, I'm about to transform into a dragon, hahaha!"
Sherry was overjoyed and kept rubbing against the big tree.
Her scales were actually quite hard. Sherry suddenly realized that perhaps this tree was the core of the formation? It was unusually large!
"System, have you noticed that the book has become so dense it blocks out the sky?"
System: Indeed, and every time you come out, it's from behind this tree!
Sherry was completely confused and didn't say anything more!
I don't know how much time passed before I fell into a deep sleep!
She didn't see an old man with a Taoist-like demeanor emerge from the tree and look at her in surprise.
