Chapter 780: Chapter 339: Consolidate the Foundation_3
Therefore, apart from Chu Wei, Lu Yuan only kept an eye on Li Liang, Han Shun and the others for about ten days or half a month. After seeing that the disciples’ inborn transformation was on track, he didn’t spend much energy on them.
Of course.
As a Teacher, he didn’t completely let go of his responsibilities.
After letting go, Lu Yuan instructed Sun Siwen to check on his nieces and nephews if he had time, keeping an eye on them to prevent any accidents.
Yes, they are considered as nieces and nephews.
Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen treat each other as brothers, and their friendship is far better than ordinary siblings.
At the same time, Sun Siwen practiced the Chi Yang Divine Skill inherited from Lu Yuan and broke through the predestined realm with this skill.
There would be no problem in teaching Chu Wei and the others who practiced the same lineage.
So whether it’s in terms of identity or martial arts, Sun Siwen is perfectly qualified to be called a Martial Uncle by Chu Wei and others.
Even in terms of official title, Sun Siwen is the Prime Minister of the kingdom, and his rank is higher than Chu Wei and the others.
He is definitely qualified to instruct Chu Wei and the others.
However, this inevitably made the already busy Sun Siwen even busier.
Fortunately, being a selfless friend for the country and the public, Sun Siwen did not refuse to help train the five inborn talents, which is a great contribution to the national foundation.
With such a responsible friend, Lu Yuan could also let go of his worries and live a carefree life.
So after having some free time, Lu Yuan finished the state affairs, took Lan Cai’er and other concubines, as well as his brothers Lu He and Lu Hao, on a leisurely trip around Baling.
Yes, Lan Cai’er had returned from her tour of the southwest.
After Han Liang took up his post as the Guardian General of Qianzhong County, Lan Cai’er naturally no longer had to stay in the remote mountains and was able to return to Baling.
And to be honest.
Lu Yuan was going to marry a barbarian Spiritual woman with the ceremony of a Queen.
In reason and emotion, Lan Cai’er should be informed of this and asked to return to the capital to participate in person.
So after Han Liang went to Qianzhong, Lu Yuan sent a message to have the Queen return.
Moreover, after Lan Cai’er returned to Baling a few days ago, he told her all the details and prepared for her anger.
After all, what he did was indeed a bit underhanded.
There can’t be two suns in the sky and there can’t be two rulers in the country.
Naturally, there couldn’t be two queens in the harem.
Lu Yuan wanted to win over the spiritual woman by marrying her using the ceremony of a queen, although he didn’t grant her the title of queen.
But theoretically speaking.
Based on this event, the spiritual woman in the harem could actually be on an equal footing with Lan Cai’er and not fear her as much.
This would undermine Lan Cai’er’s authority in the harem, which is a serious matter for her position.
Of course.
Although this matter may disturb the peace of the harem and even undermine the foundation of the country.
However, Lu Yuan was confident that as long as he was alive, there would be no turmoil in the harem or the country.
And both Lan Cai’er and the Spirit woman will not be able to outlive him.
So neither Lan Cai’er nor the spiritual woman would be able to cause trouble in Chu State.
Hence, Lan Cai’er was angry and dissatisfied when she learned of this, but knowing that she could not outlive her husband, she didn’t make a fuss.
After all, she knew that she could not outlive her husband, and neither could the spiritual woman.
Even whether her own sons could outlive him was a question.
Her original plan to control Chu State and revive the Miao People’s Five Poisons Sect through her children to outlast her husband had long been abandoned.
With Chu growing stronger and gradually becoming a force to unite Yangzhou, Lan Cai’er now thinks more about integrating the Miao and the Five Poisons Sect into Chu as a part of the nation rather than a separate ethnicity.
Besides, what difference could it make if the spiritual woman entered the palace as a wife?
The greatest advantage in Lu Yuan’s hands, the spiritual energy from the jade pendant, had already been obtained by his two sons, Lu He and Lu Hao.
Lu He and Lu Hao have laid the foundation of Inborn and will even become Inborn Grandmasters when they grow up in seven or eight years.
By then, with Lan Cai’er as their mother and both sons as Inborn Grandmasters, this power would be sufficient to secure the position of Queen.
No one in the harem could break this combination bound by blood ties.
Not to mention the affection Lu Yuan and Lan Cai’er had for each other, having supported each other through all the years they had been together.
This emotional bond of struggling together and creating a formidable empire cannot be compared to a mere spiritual woman.
Under such circumstances, knowing that her status was secured and recognizing the value of the spirit woman to win over the barbarians, Lan Cai’er eventually let go of her anger.
However, even though she let go, she still had some discomfort in her heart.
What could Lu Yuan say about this?
He could only take his queen, along with their two children, on a trip outside the palace to relax and enjoy themselves.
And sure enough, this proved to be very effective.
Baling is surrounded by the Yangtze River to the north, Dongting Lake to the west, Yunluo Mountain to the east, and a rich lake land to the south.
With the stunning mountains and rivers and the endless scenery in all directions, Lu Yuan and his family spent a long time enjoying themselves, which helped alleviate much of Lan Cai’er’s sadness and gloom.
When she usually played with her children, she showed many smiles.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan finally felt relieved.
He knew in his heart that this crisis was finally over.
They enjoyed themselves for more than a month and returned to Baling near the end of the year.
By this time,
the envoys who were originally sent to the Snowy Wilderness to greet the spiritual woman had finally escorted the Spirit Consort back to Baling after several months of traveling.
They brought a predestined Grandmaster, 400 elixirs, and ten divine flying eagles for Chu State.
Chu State’s foundation was further solidified.
