Chapter 766: Chapter 4: My Great Celestial Pride Wife (Requesting Monthly Votes)_3
Seeing Gongyang Strategy’s expression still somewhat dissatisfied, he advised, "The Imperial Uncle is very well-liked among the clan relatives, not only among the Purple Mansion experts of the uncle and elder generation, many have friendships where they’ve been through life and death together with him, but even among the ancestors’ generation, quite a few personally supported him."
"Now that I am vying for the position of Emperor’s Son, I need to gain the support of the clan relatives. Having the Imperial Uncle help me will make this task much easier. It’s not worth clashing with the Imperial Uncle over such a small matter."
The Daqian Imperial Family, as the only First-Grade Noble Family in the Daqian Kingdom, possesses a depth of heritage that is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. To say nothing else, simply in terms of Divine Power Realm experts, there are many within the Imperial Family, and behind each expert is a large interest group.
Though he is from the direct lineage and the strongest contender for the position of the Emperor’s Son, he is not the only Great Celestial Pride within the Imperial Family, so he must act with caution and prudence.
"Do not worry, Your Highness, I understand the stakes," Gongyang Strategy nodded. "I have already made an arrangement with him; we will act two years later."
"Good." Prince Kang nodded, then added, "Moreover, if that Wang Shouzhe is as formidable as you say, then even if he doesn’t have definitive evidence linking you to this affair, he has probably already guessed the truth. After all, Cao Youqing is your follower, and this matter within the Saint Land isn’t a secret, not hard to trace."
"After so many years, he has probably investigated you thoroughly. You should notify the family, prevent the Wang Family from pulling the rug out from under you and targeting the Gongyang Family. Moreover, in the Saint Land, you should keep more contingencies, ensuring he doesn’t exploit any negligence to gain advantage."
Prince Kang, having navigated the court for many years, in just a brief moment, had already thought this far ahead for Gongyang Strategy.
Gongyang Strategy felt considerable respect, and promptly nodded, "Rest assured, Your Highness, I’ll manage this so that the Wang Family won’t have an opportunity."
"Good. You’re no longer a child, I needn’t give you too many reminders." Prince Kang smiled and looked at Gongyang Strategy, "I will soon head to the Outer Domain Battlefield, since you’re not in a hurry to act, why not accompany me? It’s been a while since we’ve fought side by side."
Gongyang Strategy, hearing this, felt a pang of nostalgia and nodded, "Alright, I’ll accompany Your Highness for a trip."
Saying this, the two exchanged smiles, both reminiscing about the times they wielded their twin swords and battled on the field together.
The friendship between men is often so simple and genuine.
...
Ping’an Town, Wang Family’s Main Residence.
These days, Wang Shouzhe has been living a life of both comfort and leisure.
Spending all day amongst his younger grandchildren or great-grandchildren, narrating to them timeless and fascinating stories.
Or being invited by Liua Ruolan to the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion, exchanging insights on recent cultivations.
The only aspect that Wang Shouzhe secretly grumbled about was the increasing frequency of Ruoling inexplicably appearing over the years.
Often, once he’s finished discussing with Ruolan, he coincidentally encounters Ruoling, inevitably ending up dispatched by the "fair treatment" theory.
Luckily, what comforts Wang Shouzhe is that, through generations of effort, the Wang Family is not what it used to be; not only is the clan thriving with many descendants, but they can also hold their own and oversee regions.
Most of the time, Wang Shouzhe merely needs to steer the ship, and the Changning Wang Family can sail steadily forward.
Although he is a transmigrator, over the years, he has entirely integrated into his current life. Memories of Earth have gradually been sealed away, only occasionally surfacing to stir his emotions slightly.
What hasn’t been sealed away are only those insights and foresight that transcend epochs.
"Husband, taste this new [Iced Three-Color Spirit Lotus Seed Purple He Shou Juice] I’ve recently developed. It not only clears heat and detoxifies, and nourishes the skin, it’s delicious too."
Just as Wang Shouzhe was enjoying time with his descendants, the ever-radiant and healthy-skinned Liua Ruolan approached him gracefully, personally carrying a bowl of steaming peculiar iced soup, with an expression filled with joy and a sense of offering treasure, looking exceedingly virtuous.
Clearly, she has great confidence in this newly developed frozen drink, believing it will surely win her husband’s praise.
As a worthy wife to the patriarch, what could satisfy her more than her husband’s approval and admiration?
Behind Liua Ruolan followed a graceful woman, unmistakably the Tianyan Fairy, who had become Ruolan’s close sister and confidante.
Though she still wore a veil on her face, keeping a serious expression, the look she directed at Wang Shouzhe was full of sympathy.
Wang Shouzhe’s heart trembled suddenly, desperately looking to his great-grandson Wang Anrui, and his cherished granddaughter Wang Yingxuan for help.
In response, the two little ones dashed away from him without loyalty, exclaiming in unison, "Grandpa/Great-grandpa, we almost forgot our homework isn’t done yet~"
"Grandma/Great-grandma, evening sister Tianyan, we’re going to study hard now."
Then, in the blink of an eye, the two little figures vanished from sight.
Don’t blame the allies for incompetence, blame the enemy for being too strong.
