Holding a child-bearing system, seducing all the handsome male cultivators in the wilderness
Chapter 297 Initiative
"Sad and reluctant?" Li Yuqing frowned: "Do they still have feelings for the old dynasty?"
"Now that our Ximen clan has fallen to this point, they should understand that only by following the general trend can they preserve the future of themselves and their clansmen."
"Young Master, what you said is absolutely right." Ximen Hong nodded, "I have tried to persuade them many times, but they still can't let it go. I think they feel sorry for the Master and the two princes who are going to be sent to perform corvée labor."
"Forget it. Since they are so obsessed with their old relationship, let's give them enough time and let them calm down first."
Li Yuqing pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "After some time, I will go and talk to them in person, hoping to untie the knot in their hearts."
He understood very well that for someone who once held a high position and held power, the demise of the family was undoubtedly a huge blow, and it would take time to heal the trauma in his heart.
What's more, this involves the life and death of loved ones, as well as the uncertainty and fear about the future. These are not things that can be resolved overnight.
"However, we also need to ensure the safety of the two grandmothers. Uncle Hong, please arrange some reliable people to protect them secretly and don't let anyone do anything bad to them."
"Yes, young master." Ximen Hong answered respectfully. His young master was kind-hearted, wise, and deeply loved by the people.
He was even more tolerant towards his closest relatives, and Ximen Hong's respect for Li Yuqing increased even more.
The banquet continued. Li Yuqing, Li Wanji and Gong Yihuai raised their glasses from time to time to greet the clansmen and soldiers present, thanking them for their support and dedication at the critical moment.
He also expressed welcome and acceptance to those members of the Ximen clan who had already joined the Wangchuan Alliance, and promised to treat them equally and work together for the peace and prosperity of the Great Wilderness.
The whole hall was filled with laughter, as if the haze of the past had been swept away and new hope was rising.
It was late at night and the banquet was over. Li Yuqing stood alone in the courtyard of the palace, looking up at the sky full of dark lights.
He knew that this change was just the beginning and there was still a long way to go.
But Li Yuqing also believed that as long as everyone in the Wangchuan League worked together, they would be able to create a new era of peace and justice.
"Mother, Uncle Gong." Li Yuqing called softly, "We can definitely do it, right?"
Li Wanji and Gong Yihuai walked out from the darkness, both of them nodded with a smile: "Yes, we can definitely do it."
Every day after that, Li Yuqing learned how to be the new master of Fengquan with the help of Li Wanji and Gong Yihuai.
From how to handle various complex affairs within the clan to how to formulate and implement policies, from how to cultivate trusted forces to how to win the support of the people...
Li Yuqing studied everything carefully and asked for advice humbly. He understood that being a leader requires not only strong strength but also wisdom and strategy.
Two months passed in a flash, and everything in Fengquan was finally back on track.
The remnants of the Ximen clan gradually returned to the Party under the appeasement of the Wangchuan Alliance, and they gradually adapted to the new rule.
Li Yuqing's benevolent rule and wise decisions won the respect and love of the people, and the Fengquan area was revitalized under his governance.
Although Old Madam Ximen and Queen Shangguan Huajin of the West were still upset about the capture of Ximen Qing and others, as time passed, they gradually accepted the reality and began to try to integrate into the new life.
As the steward, Ximen Hong took good care of them, while also secretly observing their emotional changes to ensure their safety.
One day, Ximen Hong came to Li Yuqing's study and reported to him about the recent situation of his two grandmothers.
He said, "Young Master, Madam Shangguan has become more stable recently, and she has begun to show some interest in the ideas you proposed. I think it's time for her to participate in the affairs of the clan again."
Li Yuqing nodded: "Uncle Hong, you are right. Grandmother is an elder of our Ximen clan. Her experience and wisdom are very valuable to us Fengquan."
"Please arrange for Grandmother to participate in some of the clan's decision-making meetings. I believe she will be able to play her role."
Ximen Hong agreed and left, while Li Yuqing continued to immerse himself in the sea of books.
Gong Yihuai and Li Wanji also bid farewell to Li Yuqing and embarked on a journey to the headquarters of Wangchuan League.
"Wan Ji, the war is about to end, what are your plans?" Gong Yihuai looked at the distant sky, his voice filled with some contemplation and expectation.
"Go back to my hometown, Wanji Mountain, and see my people. Are they safe?"
Li Wanji suddenly thought of Li Jiji and the other four little demons, and the carefree days they had spent together.
Although their life was extremely hard, the companionship and dependence on each other were the most precious memories in her heart.
"Wan Ji, have you ever thought about staying in Wangchuan?" Gong Yihuai turned his head slightly and looked at Li Wan Ji with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Li Wanji shook her head: "The sky in the underworld is too dark. Such a place is not suitable for me."
"I come from Wanji Mountain, where my people and my roots are. What I long for is sunshine and blue sky, freedom and peace. Wangchuan is nice, but it is not my destination after all."
"But I am not opposed to keeping in touch with my partners in the underworld. After all, we have fought side by side and experienced life and death together. If you need me, I will do my best to help you."
Gong Yihuai did not give up and asked again: "What about Nanxing? Are you really willing to give him up?"
Li Wanji smiled sweetly: "Nanxing is my Taoist partner. Although he may have to work in the underworld in the future, he can come to see me when he is free."
"What about me?" As soon as Gong Yihuai finished speaking, a mischievous smile appeared on his face, as if he was teasing Li Wanji, or testing her feelings.
Li Wanji was slightly stunned, then she showed a bright smile and patted Gong Yihuai's shoulder gently.
"Yi Huai, you and I have been together for so long that we have become like brothers. I, Li Wanji, will always remember your loyalty and righteousness. Whenever and wherever you need me, I will do my best to help you."
Gong Yihuai heard this and the smile on his face gradually faded: "Wan Ji, you are so smart, you must know what I want to say."
Li Wanji has seen countless men, how could she not see the emotions in Gong Yihuai's eyes?
It’s just that Gong Yihuai is too rational and always weighs the pros and cons of everything. He has never said it clearly, and Li Wanji is unwilling to point it out directly.
Even if she wants to conquer someone again, Li Wanji now has enough patience and determination to wait for the other person to speak, and then take the absolute initiative.
Li Wanji smiled calmly: "Yi Huai, I think you were just impulsive today. When you calm down, maybe you won't mention this matter again."
