Ancient women awaken: loving yourself is the way to go

When the smoke cleared, the once majestic mountain was revealed to have had a corner of it chopped off.

Everyone stared blankly at the direction of the mountain, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.

Then they saw a blazing flame, carrying with it the power to destroy the world, rushing towards the mountain again.

The flames instantly engulfed a corner of the mountain, followed by a deafening sound of collapse.

If the mountain was engulfed the first time, it might have been caused by the explosives buried in advance. The second flame was enough to prove that this was a powerful weapon.

Shen Xingxi introduced loudly to everyone: "This is a new weapon developed by Feng Dynasty, called the Chinese Cannon. I'm sure you've already seen that it can cut off mountains and destroy all obstacles that block our progress!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at the envoy and said, "Our people have always loved peace, but your conditions make it difficult for us. I wonder if you can change the conditions? For example, Dongliang will give us a few cities in Fengchao Kingdom?"

The envoy looked at the shorter mountain with lingering fear, and could only bow and salute, saying, "Your Majesty, the Emperor of Fengchao, I dare not make the decision on this matter. Please allow me to report to the Emperor."

The people cheered excitedly at this time, "The emperor is mighty! Feng Dynasty is the strongest!"

Shen Xingxi curled the corners of her lips, "My patience is limited, and the fifty-year deadline is approaching."

There was no more arrogance in the foreign official's eyes, and he returned to his residence with a dejected look.

Shen Xingxi handed the collected evidence to the Prime Minister, "These are people who have privately contacted or worked for the Dongliang Kingdom. They will be dealt with according to the law."

The Prime Minister responded accordingly, with no more worry on his face, replaced by admiration.

Their emperor is powerful, financially strong, and popular with the people. What's even more rare is that she has a long-term vision and unparalleled wisdom.

Such an emperor does not need to act according to the wishes of his ministers. He can also act freely without having to worry about the complicated interests in the officialdom.

Shen Xingxi continued, "Prime Minister, in the next three years, I will select 100 Jinshi candidates to serve as officials in the court. You don't have to worry about manpower. Anyone who breaks the law will be stripped of his official position, and his descendants will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examinations."

The prime minister promised in a resounding voice: "I will live up to the emperor's expectations! I will create a clean and honest officialdom!"

Shen Xingxi nodded, turned and left.

As he walked towards the room, he said: [Thank you so much for today, System cutie. ]

[What is this!] The system voice was a little arrogant, [But host, I remember you have come into contact with frog language?]

[I can probably understand it. He's just a clown. It's not worth getting angry at. But Mo Hongyun has a golden letter on his head today, which should attract some people to explore his identity.]

At this time, she walked to the door, pushed it open, and asked in her heart: [Yunyun, how about being a spy? The requirements for officials will become more and more stringent in the future. People who are dissatisfied with me may have evil intentions to provoke us. You pretend to cooperate, and when the other party takes action, pull out the cancer. ]

Mo Hongyun responded: "Okay."

He stood up and walked in front of Xingxi, "But aren't you afraid that I might turn my fake play into reality?"

Shen Xingxi put her arm around his waist, her eyes full of trust, "Of course I believe in my Yunyun."

The corners of Mo Hongyun's lips rose uncontrollably, and he immediately assured, "Don't worry, if anyone contacts me, I will tell you the first time, and I will tell you every step. You can also let the system monitor me."

System: [Host, you don't have to let me, I will definitely supervise! If Mo Hongyun rebels, it will be indirectly considered as the host's indulgence, and the merit points will be deducted. I will also deduct points, so even if the host says that you don't need my supervision, I will still supervise. ]

[Thank you for your hard work, but Yunyun really doesn't need supervision. If he has any complaints, he wouldn't have dealt with the prime minister.] Shen Xingxi lowered her eyes to hide the smile in her eyes. The system cooperated with her more and more tacitly.

She has never been someone who can completely trust a person just because of feelings. Even if the system does not supervise, she will send someone to supervise.

But these words were enough to make Mo Hongyun smile from the bottom of his heart. It was another day when Xingxi trusted him unconditionally!

The handsome man's smile was too cute, causing Shen Xingxi to raise her hand and pinch his face. Her tone became a little more gentle, "Since Yunyun cooperates with me so well, I will give you the Yun Palace. How about you get married there?"

"Okay." Mo Hongyun was touched, knowing that Xingxi didn't want people to look down on him. After all, his current identity was only a fourth-rank official in the Ministry of Works.

At the same time, he also admired Xingxi's intelligence and talent. As a member of the Ministry of Works, he was rewarded at this time. It was hard not to suspect that he was also involved in the manufacture of the Chinese cannon, which would reveal the true colors of those who were dissatisfied with Xingxi's rule.

Of course, because the deterrent power of the Chinese artillery was too strong, all officials became obedient at the same time, and the envoys did not dare to act rashly.

Life was peaceful until the day when the emperor married his legitimate wife.

The morning light was just beginning to appear, and a faint golden red hue appeared on the horizon. All things woke up in this soft light. Shen Xingxi, wearing a luxurious red wedding dress, a dazzling golden crown on her head, and riding on a tall horse with a red flower on its head, came to the Yunwang Mansion amid the cheers and blessings of the crowd.

There was a custom of blocking the door in this dynasty. Wu Ti and Yue Luo stood in front of the door and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the door will only be opened if you can answer our questions."

After all, they were getting married, so they just wanted to have a happy time. Shen Xingxi readily agreed: "Just come up with the questions."

Wu Ti and Yue Luo looked at each other and said in unison: "Who of us does Xing Huo like the most?"

Shen Xingxi was amused, "Xinghuo, come and suppress the wife!"

Wu Ti and Yue Luo's expressions tightened: "Your Majesty, please don't cheat!"

Xinghuo grabbed one person's ear with one hand, and his voice was exceptionally gentle: "What are you talking about?"

Wu Ti and Yue Luo changed their words at the same time: "We are discussing with the emperor. He wants to see how we can open the door."

The onlookers all laughed out loud, and Shen Xingxi also stepped into the palace and came to the gate of the main courtyard.

Zhao Da was guarding the main courtyard. When he saw Shen Xingxi coming, he immediately opened the door to greet her: "Your Majesty, please take my useless brother away quickly. The calluses on my ears are caused by his nagging."

Shen Xingxi smiled, stuffed a red envelope into Zhao Da's hand, and took a few quick steps to open the bedroom door.

The moment I saw Mo Hongyun, my heart beat faster.

The journey has been full of hardships. If Mo Hongyun had done anything that would hinder her from pursuing welfare for women, if Mo Hongyun had not given up the throne gracefully, or if Mo Hongyun had any evil intentions, she would not have reached this point.

She walked up to him, took his hand, walked through the familiar Prince Yun's Mansion, and entered the Fengluan Hall to get married amid the blessings of the people and ministers.

Firecrackers blasted in the distance, and Shen Xingxi, holding Mo Hongyun, entered the bridal chamber amid a chorus of cheers.

With Xinghuo, Wuti and Yueluo blocking the way for the toast, Shen Xingxi did not keep Mo Hongyun waiting for long.

He picked up the wedding scale and couldn't wait to lift up Mo Hongyun's red veil.

The handsome man's eyelashes trembled slightly, his face showed shyness, and his bright eyes flickered with warm light under the candlelight, as if the stars fell into the earth, dazzling.

Shen Xingxi leaned over uncontrollably and kissed him on the lips.

The two drank the wedding wine together and tasted the delicious food on the table.

The sky gradually darkened, and the warm lights illuminated everything around. Shen Xingxi swallowed and asked in a low voice: "Is it time to take a shower?"

"Yeah." Mo Hongyun felt nervous for no reason and put his cold hand in Xingxi's hand. "I heard that I need to wash it thoroughly. Can you help me?"
