Chapter 1758: Chapter 836: Shocking the World!
For Princess Pingyang, she had already laid her cards on the table with Chen Yuan, and was even acknowledged by him as the Imperial Concubine, so she was technically his woman already, why continue to be reserved?
As for Empress Dowager Yang, she had let go of her grudges, and if she had any objections, she wouldn’t stubbornly persist.
Chen Yuan paused for a moment, seemingly surprised by Princess Pingyang’s words, glanced at Empress Dowager Yang beside him, slightly curled his lips, and said with a smile:
"Alright."
Empress Dowager Yang secretly sighed in her heart, stood up without showing any expression:
"I have some matters to attend to outside; it’s better to seize the day than to wait for another. You can stay in the palace."
After speaking, she gracefully walked away from the grand hall. Princess Pingyang looked at her, almost confirming her own suspicions.
Empress Dowager Yang wisely left, and Chen Yuan didn’t stop her, even though he had some thoughts himself, he still had to consider the thoughts of both women, to proceed gradually.
Empress Dowager Yang was easygoing, essentially whatever Chen Yuan said was law. But Princess Pingyang is different; she has a very decisive personality, and tolerating to share her husband is already noteworthy.
Trying to make her fly is quite difficult.
Princess Pingyang walked gracefully with her long dress trailing behind, her figure elegantly outlined, alluring and gently approaching Chen Yuan, extending an arm as fair as white jade.
"Trouble the Regent King, please."
Princess Pingyang smiled faintly, her body exuding a captivating virginal fragrance.
Chen Yuan was not shy, grasping Pingyang’s hand, he gently probed with a bent finger, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice:
"It seems you have some Qi blockage in your heart, accumulated within, hence causing discomfort throughout your body."
"Oh, what should I do then?"
Seeing Chen Yuan talk nonsense, Princess Pingyang didn’t expose him, and asked with a face filled with wonder.
Chen Yuan stared into her beautiful eyes and continued:
"This syndrome can be considered difficult, yet easy; if someone could guide you through it, it wouldn’t be a problem, but if it stays trapped within, it could eventually turn into a demon of the heart."
"Guide?"
"Guide!"
"Could the Regent King guide Pingyang?"
"This king always finds it unbearable to see others suffer, so if the princess needs it, naturally I can." After speaking, Chen Yuan suddenly pulled the Princess Pingyang into his embrace.
"Chen Yuan...."
"Hmm...."
...
In the days that followed.
Through Chen Yuan’s gradual, pressing guidance, Princess Pingyang’s Qi blockage mostly dissipated, her face adorned with a smile.
To this day, her breathing is still somewhat hurried, clearly amazed by Chen Yuan’s superb medical skills.
What surprised Chen Yuan, however, was Princess Pingyang’s familiarity with the Divine Beast, completely unexpected that she was indeed a Western Divine Beast, granting Chen Yuan a rare chance to experience it.
"Thank you Regent King for the treatment, Pingyang feels much better." Princess Pingyang raised her hand and tucked her long, draped hair behind her ear, smiling lightly as she looked at Chen Yuan.
She appeared less regal and grand, instead showing a subtle softness, creating a contrast with her previous demeanor.
"Hehe...."
Chen Yuan chuckled softly, smiling faintly.
"That’s good, it wasn’t in vain that I spent my Essence Qi on you."
Pingyang squinted her eyes, her breath gradually becoming even, the blush on her face slowly fading.
"Ziyue came to me today discussing you."
"What did she say?"
"She praised your ability, saying that the harem will depend on you to invest more Spirit, supporting Ziyue."
"Whether I’m capable, surely the Regent King knows by now?"
"I do, very capable, so.... since you’re able, then you shall handle any trivial matters I am reluctant to manage in the future."
"When will I change my name?"
Princess Pingyang remained silent for a moment, then suddenly shifted the conversation to the main issue.
"When this king has conquered the Four Barbarians and ascends to the throne, it will not be too late to change it. During this time, take the opportunity to manage those affairs of the Thirteen States well.
The people’s hearts must be aligned, only then can enough national fortune be gathered in the future."
Chen Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Alright, I am also willing to do such things, what a man can do, a woman can equally accomplish." Princess Pingyang’s eyes sparkled with Essence, revealing a gleam of ambition.
Previously, the Great Jin Court was left with few resources and many obstacles, limiting her to the Capital. Now, with Chen Yuan’s help, she can finally unleash her talents, creating an unprecedented era.
Even if history books don’t record her name, it would still be worth it.
"I trust you, if there are any obstacles, go find the Princess."
"What name does the Regent King intend to give Pingyang?"
"Hmm.... Chen... Zhao... how about it?"
"Chen Zhao?"
Pingyang pondered thoughtfully.
"Zhao refers to the sun and moon in the sky; you have always been quite proud, choosing this name, in this king’s view, suits you well."
"That’s not what Pingyang meant, Zhao isn’t bad, but why the surname Chen?" Princess Pingyang looked at Chen Yuan with a half-smile, seemingly seeing through him.
"What do you think?"
"... As you wish, Chen Zhao it is...." Pingyang remained silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Hehe, rest a while, this king has other matters to attend to."
The message had been delivered; it’s believed that Princess Pingyang can understand. Whether she will oppose or not remains to be seen, but it seems there is hope, allowing him to personally experience that feeling.
Future matters will be discussed later.
After going through a few major battles upon exiting seclusion, the pressure on him indeed lessened considerably.
