"This is really boring!"
What was supposed to be a great show ended rather anticlimactically. This left Rong Xi, the viewer, feeling quite dissatisfied and unsatisfied.
However, she also understood that Guarjia was in such an awkward situation that she would be constrained in whatever she did and could not do whatever she wanted.
"Pitiful!"
"sad!"
Rong Xi stopped paying attention to anything in the palace, including Consort Li.
In fact, if she weren't bored, she wouldn't have come here to watch a show at all. After all, with her current strength, she could really ignore a lot of things.
What if the crown prince becomes emperor?
Since she dared to kill the Azure Dragon King and even forced Emperor Kangxi to abdicate, unless a powerful figure or accomplice emerges in the court, any conspiracy or scheme will be utterly futile in the face of absolute strength.
Upon returning to the Prince Yong's Mansion in the small town of Zichuan, Rong Xi immediately summoned Granny Rui and Granny Xiang.
"Greetings, Madam!"
As Rong Xi's guardian nannies, the two women were now considered her confidantes.
"What are Xi Yue and Lian Xing's current cultivation levels?"
After watching Guarjia's restrained performance, Rong Xi was quite moved. If Guarjia's cultivation was strong enough, even if it didn't surpass hers, but was strong enough to surpass the Crown Prince, then how could she be controlled by the Crown Prince?
Nominally the Empress, she was in reality just a pawn in the Crown Prince's hands. Even being granted the title of Empress was merely a pretext to give her a legitimate excuse to place women in the Fourth Prince's harem.
It's a pity that the Crown Prince is a complete idiot.
He only thought about causing trouble for others, but forgot that his own cultivation was insufficient.
Rong Xi could even coerce Kangxi, so how could she possibly take him, the newly enthroned crown prince, seriously?
"Reporting to the Madam, Xiyue, Lianxing, and the other three are making rapid progress; all four have successfully established their foundations."
"Very good. Ensure they have everything they need for cultivation. Strive to help them advance to the Golden Core realm as quickly as possible. When that time comes, I have important matters for them to handle."
Xi Yue, Lian Xing, Yin Shuang, and Ao Xue were promising talents that Rong Xi brought back from Yi Pin Tang. The four of them formed an array and evolved Chaos. Not only was their attack powerful, but more importantly, the Chaos power they evolved was an excellent supplement to enhance the strength of the four ancient ferocious beasts, Taotie and Qiongqi.
If it weren't for the isolation caused by chaos, how could the four ancient ferocious beasts have been so easily suppressed?
"This servant understands and will not disappoint the Princess Consort."
Granny Rui responded respectfully.
In this small town of Zichuan, the Fujin is now in charge. Moreover, the Fujin's demon beasts can help people overcome tribulations, so there is probably no one in the world who would want to be her enemy.
Well, except for that current emperor whose head got caught in a door.
"So, what do we do now?"
Everything that needed to be done was being done by others. Rong Xi herself had some free time. Even with things like cultivation, in her current state, she didn't need to enter a deep meditative state at all; her cultivation level was increasing rapidly.
"Oh right, let's go to Wangwu Mountain!"
After sitting in the room for a while, Rong Xi finally figured out what she could do.
The spineless, stupid Azure Dragon King said there's a semi-divine handwritten book in Wangwu Mountain. She still has system tasks to complete.
It seems this system task comes with a penalty, a penalty that Rong Xi finds hard to accept. Indeed, this kind of penalty is something no beautiful woman could accept.
As the saying goes, being overweight ruins everything, while fair skin covers up a hundred flaws.
A woman may not be very beautiful, but she must have fair skin.
And this task actually involves people turning black.
Fortunately, the system no longer imposes penalties, but Rong Xi still wants to do this task. After all, she receives a mysterious gift pack for each semi-divine book she collects.
I don't know what this system is all about, but the gift package it created is actually quite good.
"Su Peisheng!"
Having decided to go to Wangwu Mountain to retrieve the semi-saint's handwritten letter, Rong Xi, always a woman of action, set off without hesitation. She took out a communication talisman and summoned Su Peisheng to her side.
"This servant greets the Princess Consort."
Su Peisheng rushed over and bowed deeply to Rong Xi upon seeing her.
Not to mention that the current head of the household is the Fujin, Su Peisheng admires Rong Xi to the core simply because of the Fujin's methods.
"I'm going out for a walk, just for a day or two. During that time, you'll be in charge of all matters, big and small, in the manor. If anyone dares to cause trouble, don't hesitate to have Wuliangha and his men deal with them decisively. If anything goes wrong, I, your wife, will take responsibility for it."
"Yes, please rest assured, I will take good care of the house."
"Yes, have someone prepare a flying boat. I'm going to Wangwu Mountain."
"ah?!"
Upon hearing Rong Xi say she was going to Wangwu Mountain, Su Peisheng's expression immediately changed, and he lost his composure.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the usually composed Su Peisheng so flustered, Rong Xi frowned slightly and stared intently at her.
"Reporting to Your Highness, Wangwu Mountain has been in turmoil recently, with demonic energy soaring into the sky. The imperial court has already lost two Nascent Soul cultivators on Wangwu Mountain. To prevent the demonic energy from spreading, the imperial court has dispatched the Demon Suppression Camp, which has sealed off an area within a hundred miles of Wangwu Mountain."
Although the Fourth Prince was not at the residence, various messages still reached here. Liang Jiugong was responsible for sorting out these messages and selecting those that might affect Zichuan Town to report to Rong Xi.
"I see. So that guy wasn't lying after all. Good!"
Upon hearing Su Peisheng's words, Rong Xi not only did not feel anything was wrong, but instead became more determined to go to Wangwu Mountain.
"My Ladyship, the demonic energy on Mount Wangwu is soaring into the sky, and the situation is currently unclear. I suggest you wait for the Prince to return and discuss this with him before making a decision?"
"Su Peisheng, you're overthinking it!"
Rong Xi smiled calmly and said, "I'm afraid mere demonic energy is not enough."
"Demonic energy is a good thing; Taotie and Qiongqi will definitely like it."
"Madam, you are not afraid of demonic energy, but now that you are pregnant with the young master, shouldn't you be careful in everything you do?"
Su Peisheng mustered his courage and spoke.
"Well……"
Rong Xi was stunned for a long time. Okay, could she say that for so long, she had actually forgotten that she was still pregnant?
Strangely enough, she was completely unaware that she was pregnant, showing absolutely no awareness of being about to become a mother. Whether it was due to her spiritual practice or something else, the pregnancy had almost no effect on her.
"It's alright, I'll be careful. If I find anything amiss, I'll leave immediately."
Rong Xi still decided to go and take a look at Wangwu Mountain.
Of course, she will be careful. After all, she is an expectant mother.
...
[Having reviewed the previous plot, Fujiko will try her best to finish this story. I feel quite ashamed that I've been putting it off for so long. My main focus will be on the new book, but I'll try to maintain a stable update schedule for the older one. Well, that's all. Wishing everyone all the best, Fujiko is back!]
