When the young ladies heard about the Ni Sea, their faces were filled with longing. They wanted to go there to take a look, walk around, and savor the unique sea. Then, they would gradually fall into the romantic coral forest.
His wife liked to dominate the Ni Sea when she heard it was beautiful. She wanted to make sure every drop of water and every corner of coral belonged to her. This was probably the romance of a female ruler!
Perhaps the land of Li Chuan was still too small for Li Yunzi, so she couldn't display her true talents.
"Just treat it as exploring the place. If there's a place you like, just mark it on the map," Zhu Minglang said.
Li Yunzi glanced at the map after receiving the ink brush from Zhu Minglang. She didn't care about the Ni Sea. Instead, she found the Xu Country and drew a line on it.
"The world is unpredictable. It often makes people helpless. I don't like this feeling either," Li Yunzi said.
"Do you care about me fighting for the position of the son-in-law?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"I don't care," Li Yunzi shook her head.
Zhu Minglang was a little disappointed. If she said she cared, wouldn't he be able to look at her affectionately, then hold her hand and gently lean on her …
How could she not care?
"I'm still too weak …" Li Yunzi's voice was very soft. It didn't sound like she was talking to Zhu Minglang, but more like she was talking to herself.
Yes, she wasn't strong enough.
If she was strong enough, she wouldn't have been injured in the battle of the Rui Kingdom.
If she was strong enough, she wouldn't need the Ancient Lamp Jade. Even if she needed it, she could obtain it with her own strength. She wouldn't have to ask Zhu Minglang to become the son-in-law of the Xu Country just for the Lamp Jade.
It was because she was too weak that the people around her had to make sacrifices for her.
Li Yunzi didn't like this feeling.
Variables would always exist. She needed to be strong enough to face them calmly, including natural and man-made disasters, including the fall of the new continent, or the possible doomsday in the future … After all, this world wasn't stable to begin with.
It wasn't like this time.
Just a small country like Rui had almost exhausted all of his destiny.
Zhu Minglang knew Li Yunzi well. Seeing her worried expression, he could not help but smile bitterly.
Is my wife thinking about something long-term again?
Zhu Minglang had long noticed that Li Yunzi's way of thinking was different from ordinary people. Most people would think of ways to solve their problems after encountering them.
On the other hand, Li Yunzi's current problem was a small one that she could deal with with with her eyes closed. What she was truly worried about was the possible crisis that would follow. Just like an excellent chess player, when she had a melancholic expression on her face, it was not because the chess piece in front of her had been taken, but because she had already seen the outcome of losing the entire game.
Saying that he was preparing for a rainy day was a little too simple …
If he didn't like being forced to do what he wanted, then his thinking was too advanced!
"Wife, do you want to unify the entire Polar Court Continent before you can relax a little? Don't think so much," Zhu Minglang said with a smile.
Li Yunzi looked at Zhu Minglang with her beautiful eyes and said with a serious expression, "The Polar Court Continent may be just a speck of dust in this world. Before we understand the composition of this vast universe, we can't relax."
Zhu Minglang gave his wife a thumbs-up in his heart. Sure enough, he had underestimated the level of Her Royal Highness's thinking.
"Wife …"
Li Yunzi glared at Zhu Minglang!
She had been fooled by Zhu Minglang with this title just now without anyone noticing. Forget it for the time being.
Why did he say it so smoothly?
He was already married to someone else.
Why didn't he call the Princess of Xu Kingdom his wife?
"Yunzi, let's not think about Yuanyuan for now. Do you like Runyu City? If you do, we'll take it," Zhu Minglang said without changing his expression.
"Let's see what the Hu siblings are capable of for now. If they can't defend this city, we can leave after taking the City Lord's Seal," Li Yunzi said.
Transferring troops and administrators from Li Chuan was a very troublesome matter, so it would be best if a clan that was already familiar with this place could manage it.
Lichuan was Lichuan. Perhaps it could only be quiet in the easternmost corner of the Polar Court Continent, but Li Yunzi's ruling power couldn't be limited to such a small place.
The current stability was just a gift from the dynasty.
Even Li Yunzi herself was very insignificant in the Polar Court Continent.
She had planned to expand from the beginning.
All in all, she wasn't used to having a force that was stronger than her.
Zhu Minglang looked at Li Yunzi's bright eyes and confirmed the possibility once again. The Valkyrie before him had left the newbie village and set foot on a broader continent!
Alright, there was nothing wrong with Li Yunzi's philosophy. In this world where there were serious gaps in human civilization, there were countless tragedies to begin with. In order to prevent these tragedies and helplessness from befalling her, there was nothing wrong with standing at the top.
Besides, he was a dragon herder, and he had spent most of the money he had earned from the tournament. If he couldn't find a new source of income, he would have to set the dragons free, which were getting more and more expensive with each passing day.
Since the dragons were so expensive, Zhu Minglang hadn't dared to raise a fifth dragon yet. He was afraid that it would be a waste of money.
Runyu City was indeed great. On one hand, it was suitable to be a stronghold in the west of the Polar Court Continent. On the other hand, it was very flexible. The toll it collected was enough to make some countries drool.
There were so many dragons and so many sisters-in-law that he had to take care of. He couldn't afford to be alone anymore. He had to work hard with his wife.
…
After chatting with Li Yunzi for a while about the interesting things that had happened along the way, the lights around them had gone out. It was so quiet that it was as if everyone had fallen asleep.
At times like this, the thickness of a man's skin was displayed. As long as Li Yunzi didn't personally ask him to leave the room, Zhu Minglang wouldn't leave. If he didn't put down his pride and say that it was inappropriate, he had to sleep with her.
"You sleep here. I'll go to Yu Suo's room." Li Yunzi was as cold as usual.
"It's late. It's cold. I'll go." Zhu Minglang sighed softly.
"Okay." Li Yunzi didn't really plan to change rooms.
Seeing that Zhu Minglang had left, Li Yunzi blew out the lights. However, her bright and clear eyes didn't close. She just looked at the old window. She didn't seem to be sleepy at all. She seemed to be thinking about something even further away.
Zhu Minglang walked out of the room. He glanced at the night sky covered by dark clouds and had no choice but to share a room with Hao Ye.
Hao Ye was in a deep sleep. When he saw Zhu Minglang come in, he said with a surprised expression, "Junior Master, did you make Miss Xing Hua unhappy?"
"It's none of your business. Go to sleep," Zhu Minglang said in annoyance.
"Oh." Haoye really did turn over and fall asleep.
