"Sister-in-law, please have a seat!"
Seeing that Lady Irgen Gioro agreed with her statement, Rong Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Lady Irgen Gioro would hold a grudge and insist that she give an answer immediately.
If she's not mistaken, this time, things are going to get really messy.
The eldest prince is plotting a rebellion to dethrone the crown prince, and the spiritual food she provides could very well become a special form of military pay.
The value of spiritual food surpasses that of elixirs and even spiritual stones.
If the First Princess and the First Prince secretly spread rumors and try to get themselves on their side, then things will get very serious.
With the Fourth Prince no longer present, Rong Xi has absolute authority over all matters, big and small, in the Yong Prince's Mansion. However, when the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king; a monkey is still just a monkey, and it can't handle a big situation.
Rong Xi really didn't have much experience in taking on major responsibilities.
In this life, one must be able to see oneself clearly. Know what one can do and what one cannot do.
Many people are all talk and no action, but when it comes to actually doing something, they all turn out to be all talk and no action.
Although Rong Xi had been through it all, she hadn't made any major decisions before.
She was just a nobody, a minor character. Now, by sheer chance, she has received immense good fortune and transmigrated to this Qing Dynasty world of cultivation, becoming the primary consort of the Fourth Prince and embracing everything about the Ulanara clan. But in essence, she is still Rong Xi, that lazy bum who doesn't actually have many dreams.
Of course, Rong Xi now is a lazy bum who wants to cultivate and live a carefree life, and has a few small dreams, so she can't be considered a pure lazy bum.
"You two, tell me what I should do?"
When Rong Xi arrived in the courtyard, she told Taotie and Qiongqi about the matter and asked for their opinions.
To outsiders, Taotie and Qiongqi are just monster battle pets, but these two are ancient four ferocious beasts who have lived for an unknown amount of time. Their experience and other qualities are beyond what ordinary people can compare to.
"What else can we do? Of course, we should say yes!"
Taotie is definitely someone who thrives on chaos.
"Master, Second Brother is right, you have to support this!"
Like Taotie, Qiongqi is no good bird either.
"Then you'll have to go hunting for food!"
We need lots of ingredients!
Rong Xi's current mood, well, to describe it in one sentence, is: "I'm suffering inside, and I have nowhere to confide in." She felt she must have lost her mind, otherwise, why would she want to ask the opinions of those two scourges, Taotie and Qiongqi?
Taotie and Qiongqi are ancient ferocious beasts, representing evil.
If these two weren't controlled by a slave contract, why would they obediently acknowledge her as their master?
Bound by the enslavement contract, Taotie and Qiongqi were incredibly submissive in her presence, to the point that she forgot how infamous these two creatures were.
"No problem, it's just ingredients, right? I'll take care of it!"
As soon as Qiongqi finished speaking, it soared into the sky and disappeared in an instant.
"I……"
Rong Xi was speechless, wanting to stop Qiongqi's actions, but her words failed her.
Well, deep down, Rong Xi actually hoped that the eldest prince would cause trouble. Overall, Rong Xi didn't have a good impression of the crown prince. In addition, the crown prince sent all his brothers to guard the frontier after ascending the throne, and this cold-hearted attitude made Rong Xi dislike him even more.
If the eldest prince can really succeed and dethrone the crown prince, Rong Xi would be happy to see it happen.
Even if the First Prince fails in this matter, it won't have a significant impact on Rong Xi. Even if the First Princess Consort proclaims that she's in cahoots with them, it's ultimately irrelevant. Faced with absolute power, even if the Crown Prince is dissatisfied with them, he can only endure it.
The existence of Taotie and Qiongqi surpasses the strategic nuclear weapons of later generations.
Strategic nuclear weapons are not to be used lightly, but Taotie and Qiongqi can be used at will. No matter how many cultivators attack, Taotie and Qiongqi can withstand it.
In the past, the Four Fiends of antiquity were merely sealed away, indicating that they were unkillable in the human realm.
If the Crown Prince wants to deal with Taotie and Qiongqi, he will have to mobilize the entire power of the Qing Dynasty, which is no easy task. While the Qing Dynasty's power is indeed formidable, to contend with beings like the Four Ancient Fiends, it is essential to unite the power of all forces in the world. Moreover, a formation capable of sealing the Four Ancient Fiends must be found.
Putting aside everything else, the sealing formations alone are very difficult to find.
Qiongqi went to hunt for monster food, while Taotie stayed behind to guard Prince Yong's mansion.
After Rong Xi's last encounter with danger, which nearly cost her her life, Taotie and Qiongqi reached a consensus that no matter what, one of them would always stay by Rong Xi's side.
"Fourth sister-in-law, thank you!"
As Qiongqi flew away, while Yunshang was still agonizing over her sentimentality, the First Princess Consort came out of her room, looking at Rongxi with gratitude and expressing her sincere thanks.
"Sister-in-law, please don't say that. I only did a very insignificant little thing."
Rong Xi felt rather embarrassed to accept such sincere gratitude from the Irgen Gioro clan, after all, she had her own selfish motives, and her selfish motives were quite strong.
"Fourth sister-in-law, no matter what, I still want to thank you!"
Irgen Gioro didn't have high hopes when she came here; she was just trying her luck as a last resort.
“Sister-in-law, it’s not difficult to capture demonic beasts and ferocious beasts. My demonic beast battle pet is quite powerful, but I’m afraid we’re still lacking in spiritual herbs and plants.”
Although Rong Xi felt a little guilty about receiving the First Princess's thanks, she would not take out all her treasured possessions just because of a momentary feeling of guilt.
First of all, her relationship with the First Princess Consort wasn't that deep.
Secondly, she has her own ulterior motives.
As the saying goes, emperors take turns ruling, and this year it's our turn. If the eldest prince really overthrows the crown prince and becomes emperor, then who knows if he will want to eliminate any future troubles?
In case the eldest prince doesn't see this as a favor but instead sees it as a threat, she has to be on guard.
"Fourth sister-in-law, isn't there any other way? You don't know, I really have nothing left right now!"
The First Princess Consort is playing the victim again.
Seeing this, Rong Xi also put on a pitiful expression and said, "Sister-in-law, it's not that I'm trying to play the victim. It's just that when the Fourth Prince first arrived, he had to tighten his belt in order to make things work out, which is why he put on that grand feast of spiritual food. Don't laugh at me, sister-in-law, but to solve the problems that followed, we've already turned the back garden of the Prince's mansion into a garden of spiritual herbs and planted spiritual herb seedlings!"
