Upon hearing the Fourth Prince's words, Rong Xi smiled faintly and blinked her beautiful eyes. She had eaten the Cleansing Fruit, cleansing her soul and perfectly merging with Ulanara, no longer separating from her.
This change originating from the soul can indeed alter a person's aura.
"Of course!"
The Fourth Prince raised his hand, took Rong Xi's hand, and pulled her to look in the mirror.
The polished bronze mirror reflected Rong Xi's current appearance.
"I'm not really sure!"
The Fourth Prince looked at Rong Xi's face in the bronze mirror, frowned slightly, then clapped his hands and said, "I'm really stupid, why would I need a mirror!"
As he spoke, the Fourth Prince formed a hand seal and activated his magic, manifesting a water mirror in front of Rong Xi.
The water was crystal clear and incredibly transparent.
Rong Xi stood before the water mirror, gazing at her reflection, and was truly shocked.
Is the person in this picture really her?
At first glance, it was indeed Ulanara's face, but there were some differences. Now, her features were more refined. Ulanara had only been considered of average appearance before, but the face in the mirror was definitely of superior beauty.
However, everyone must admit that the face before them is that of Ulanara.
Is this a minor cosmetic procedure?
Rong Xi felt as if she had undergone plastic surgery, one of the four great evil arts of Asia, but she absolutely hadn't had any work done. This Cleansing Fruit actually had such effects; it was simply miraculous.
"Your Highness, I seem to have become more beautiful!"
"yes!"
The Fourth Prince nodded, though he wasn't particularly concerned with his wife's appearance. After all, looks were just appearance; he cared more about her inner qualities. However, the fact that his wife had become more beautiful was still a happy thing.
"I really have become more beautiful!"
Rong Xi gazed at her reflection in the water mirror, examining it closely.
Upon closer inspection, she discovered the problem.
Now, her appearance seems to be a combination of the best features of Ulanara and her own, with some minor adjustments.
The Divine Cleansing Fruit is truly extraordinary!
"I'm so happy, I've finally become beautiful!"
Rong Xi jumped up excitedly, then hugged the Fourth Prince tightly and kissed him on the cheek. Back when she first transmigrated, she had complained about Ulanara's appearance. Now, well, she'd become beautiful!
All of this was because of the Divine Cleansing Fruit that the Fourth Prince gave her.
The Fourth Prince was somewhat stunned when Rong Xi kissed him on the cheek.
In fact, from the time Ulanara married him until now, the Ulanara he remembered had always been somewhat reserved. Such an initiative and intimate gesture was truly unprecedented.
"Your Highness, thank you!"
Rong Xi was completely unaware of the Fourth Prince's stunned expression; she was still immersed in the surprise of her improved appearance.
"My Lady, good things come in pairs!"
The Fourth Prince came to his senses, raised his hand to touch his cheek where he had been kissed, and suddenly gave a wicked smile before slowly speaking.
"What?"
Upon hearing the Fourth Prince's words, it was Rong Xi's turn to be stunned.
Good things come in pairs? Is there anything else good happening?
The Fourth Prince turned his head slightly and said, "Shouldn't the Princess Consort give me a kiss over here too?"
"..."
Upon hearing what the Fourth Prince said, Rong Xi's face immediately turned red. Only then did she remember that, in her excitement, she had hugged the Fourth Prince and kissed him.
In later generations, this would be no problem at all. But this is not later generations; this is the Qing Dynasty. Although the Qing Dynasty is a world of cultivation, its customs and practices are still based on ancient practices.
"Your Highness, I have been rude!"
Realizing that her actions had been inappropriate, Rong Xi quickly apologized.
"You flatter me, my wife. It's just the two of us here. I really enjoy this kind of intimate time in the bedroom!"
"Huh?!"
Upon hearing this, Rong Xi stared at the Fourth Prince in astonishment.
Where's the aloof and cool demeanor I was promised? Where's the cold-faced Fourth Master I was promised?
Rong Xi stared blankly at the Fourth Prince, unsure how to respond.
"Very well, since the Princess Consort is shy, then I will not insist. However, it is only proper to give and take. It is impolite not to reciprocate!"
"...?"
Rong Xi remained in a daze.
The Fourth Prince stepped forward, put his arm around Rong Xi's waist, and lowered his head to kiss her face.
Rong Xi remained completely dazed!
Fortunately, the Fourth Prince did not do anything else excessive, but simply kissed Rong Xi lightly on the cheek.
"Your Highness!"
Su Peisheng's voice, tinged with urgency, rang out from outside the courtyard, causing the Fourth Prince to reluctantly release his hold on Rong Xi's waist.
"What is it?"
The Fourth Prince released Rong Xi and responded loudly, "Come in and talk!"
Su Peisheng quickly entered the courtyard, greeted the Fourth Prince and Rong Xi, and then explained his purpose.
"Your Highness, Grand Secretary Nalan Mingzhu of the Wuying Hall has arrived with an imperial edict, requesting that Your Highness come to meet him!"
"They arrived pretty quickly!"
The Fourth Prince's expression turned slightly cold.
As early as after Zuo Tang advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, the Fourth Prince had guessed that the imperial court would issue an edict. After all, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage already stood at the pinnacle of the human cultivation world.
Although there are two more realms above the Nascent Soul stage: Tribulation Transcending and Mahayana Ascension, Nascent Soul cultivators naturally progress to Mahayana Ascension after Tribulation Transcending, and can only stay in the mortal realm for a very short time.
"Your Highness, Lady Nalan Mingzhu has come as an imperial envoy!"
Su Peisheng spoke.
"Imperial envoy? It seems the Crown Prince is truly wary of me!"
The Fourth Prince quickly figured it out.
The Crown Prince was clearly wary of Zuo Tang, a Nascent Soul cultivator, but he couldn't refuse to reward Zuo Tang. Caught in this dilemma, he resorted to such methods.
However, even if an imperial envoy is sent, the appropriate rewards must still be given.
"Let's go take a look!"
The Fourth Prince was extremely curious at this moment, eager to see what tricks the Crown Prince would come up with.
"My lady, I'll be right back!"
"..."
Rong Xi rolled her eyes.
The Fourth Prince soon left with Su Peisheng.
Rong Xi then called in Granny Rui, Magpie, and the others.
Sure enough, Granny Rui and Magpie were all stunned when they saw Rong Xi. Rong Xi's changes were minor, but these small changes were the finishing touch, instantly enhancing her appearance.
Congratulations, Madam!
Congratulations, Madam!
The perceptive Granny Gui and Granny Xiang were the first to speak up and congratulate Rong Xi.
Xique and Jiangzi were maids after all, and their reactions were a beat slower than the two of them, but they still quickly congratulated Rong Xi.
"My lord, you look so handsome now!"
The magpie blinked its big, cute eyes and stared at Rong Xi. Judging from her expression, it was clear that it had something to ask but didn't dare to.
"What's wrong? Is there anything you want to ask? Don't hold it in!"
Rong Xi is in a good mood right now, after all, she has become more beautiful!
Your appearance reflects your heart!
She looked beautiful, and naturally, she was in a beautiful mood as well.
