Auxiliary Women's Strategy: A Virtuous Wife Helps the King to Rule the World

The next day, the sky was as clear as a flawless blue gem, with strands of golden sunlight streaming down the earth like gentle silk threads. Su Nan woke early, eager to explore the mysterious and charming Yunlan City. Tasting the local cuisine was a key part of her trip.

She wore a pale blue gown, its hem flowing gently like ripples on a clear lake, her sleeves fluttering like a fairy descending to earth. A white ribbon tied around her waist perfectly framed her slender and graceful figure, as graceful and graceful as a willow branch in the breeze. Her long, lustrous black hair cascaded down her back, its luster like the twinkling stars in the night sky. Gently held together with a simple jade hairpin, a few strands playfully escaped from the bun, dancing freely in the breeze like a dancing elf. The morning sun gently bathed her, casting a soft glow on her, making her already ethereal face even more captivating, like a delicate flower blooming in the morning dew.

As she exited the post station, the bustling streets unfolded before her like a vibrant, colorful painting. Street food stalls lined the streets, their alluring aromas mingling in a culinary spree that was irresistible. Su Nan couldn't help but pause, her gaze drawn to the skillful movements of a stall owner. He expertly flipped the pastries in the pan. The pastries, golden and steaming, seemed like treasures imbued with life. She happily bought one and took a gentle bite. The sweet flavor instantly spread like fireworks in her mouth. The soft, glutinous texture and perfectly sweet taste were like a warm spring breeze caressing her heart, instantly brightening her mood and bringing a smile as bright as the sun to her face.

She continued her stroll, and unknowingly came upon a weapons shop. Inside, a dazzling array of weapons filled the shop. There were razor-sharp swords, their blades gleaming with a cold gleam, their hilts inlaid with dazzling gems, as if bespeaking of their extraordinary origins. There were heavy, thick axes with broad, razor-sharp blades, exuding an aura of immense power and intimidating power. There were nimble, flexible whips, their slender, pliant blades like serpents, as if ready to dance with life at any moment. Su Nan examined these weapons with curiosity, her eyes revealing undisguised admiration and fondness. She couldn't help but reach out and pick up a short sword, carefully feeling the weight of the hilt and the sharpness of the blade. She couldn't help but imagine herself wielding it in fierce battle, her heroic image surfacing.

Suddenly, a clamorous noise, like a surging wave, shattered her thoughts. It was a street performer performing a spectacular acrobatic show. Su Nan was immediately captivated by the lively spectacle and eagerly approached to watch. The performer, agile and nimble like a monkey, tumbled through the air, performing breathtaking and thrilling maneuvers. He leaped high, spinning several times in the air before landing with a feather-like grace, demonstrating impressive balance. He glided gracefully across thin bamboo poles, gliding like a swallow, as if they were a vast avenue. He flung flaming fireballs and caught them with his deft hands. His movements were so fluid and seamless that they drew deafening cheers from the audience. Su Nan, captivated by the performance, couldn't help but join the others in enthusiastic applause, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Leaving the acrobatic show, Su Nan wandered into a bookstore, filled with curiosity. The store was overflowing with books, the shelves filled with ancient and mysterious manuals, magical and captivating tomes of spells, and captivating legends. She gently flipped through the yellowed pages, her fingers lightly touching the rough paper, as if she had traveled through time and space, engaging in a silent yet profound conversation with the wisdom of our ancestors. When she came across a tome on mystical magic, she was captivated, her thoughts drifting as she imagined the earth-shattering power she would possess if she mastered such a powerful spell. A look of longing and yearning crossed her face.

Before he knew it, the warm sunlight had risen overhead, heralding the arrival of noon. Su Nan found an elegantly decorated restaurant. As he entered, a delicate scent of sandalwood filled his face like a soft veil.

The interior is elegant and warm, with exquisite landscape paintings hanging on the walls, bringing the landscape to life, immersing you in the embrace of nature. Tables and chairs are neatly arranged, each carefully decorated with a bouquet of fresh flowers, each delicately placed. The flowers are gorgeous and exude a subtle fragrance, instantly brightening your mood.

Su Nan found a seat by the window and was immediately greeted by the waiter, who greeted her warmly and respectfully handed her the menu. She carefully flipped through the menu, only to see the dazzling array of dishes on it, rich and varied, making her dizzying.

"Miss, our signature dishes include sauce-flavored venison, steamed sea bass and emerald hibiscus soup. They are the most popular dishes ordered by customers. Would you like to try them?" The waiter recommended enthusiastically with a smile on his face.

Su Nan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's have a serving of sauce-flavored venison, a serving of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and a bowl of emerald lotus soup."

"Okay, please wait a moment!" the waiter responded loudly, turned around and walked quickly towards the kitchen, his steps brisk and neat.

Soon, one delicious dish after another was carefully served. First up was the sauce-flavored venison. Its bright red color, glossy with oil, and emitting an alluring aroma, seemed to be telling everyone of its deliciousness. Su Nan eagerly picked up his chopsticks, gently picked up a piece of venison, and slowly placed it in his mouth. The venison was tender and juicy, with a rich sauce aroma. The unique flavor of the spices spread like fireworks in his mouth. Every bite was filled with spiritual nourishment, leaving a lasting aftertaste, as if he were in a culinary paradise.

Next up was the stir-fried seasonal vegetables. The lush greens looked fresh and tender, as if they had just been picked from nature. They were crisp and tender, with a hint of sweetness, like a gentle spring breeze caressing the tip of your tongue, leaving you intoxicated.

Last on the table was the Emerald Hibiscus Soup. Floating on the surface of the broth were emerald green leaves and pure white hibiscus petals, a beautiful painting that was too beautiful to be disturbed. Su Nan scooped up a spoonful of the soup, blew on it gently, and then carefully placed it in her mouth. The broth's flavor was delicious and rich, warming her stomach like a current and brightening her mood. It felt as if all her worries had vanished in that moment.

While savoring his food, Su Nan listened carefully to the conversations of the diners around him. Several monks at a nearby table were excitedly discussing a recent auction of magical artifacts. One of them vividly described the powerful force of a mysterious magical weapon, his expression exaggerated and vivid, as if he had witnessed the magic of the magical weapon firsthand.

"I heard that the magic weapon can summon wind and rain, and its power is boundless. As long as you have it, you can walk sideways in the world of cultivation."

"Is this true? This is too exaggerated!" Another monk said with doubt on his face and his eyes widened.

"It's absolutely true! I saw with my own eyes someone fighting for this magic weapon at an auction, getting bloodied and beaten."

The businessmen at another table were discussing business matters, talking about prices and business opportunities in various places.

"Recently, prices in cities in the east have skyrocketed. We'll definitely make a lot of money if we ship our goods there."

"But the journey is long and the risks are great."

While eating delicious food, Su Nan paid attention to these useful information, trying to get some news about Longyin Pavilion.

At this moment, she heard several young monks at a table not far away talking excitedly.

"I heard that the Longyin Pavilion is recruiting disciples this time because the Pavilion Master has obtained a mysterious martial arts secret book and needs more potential disciples to comprehend it together." One of the cultivators said in a low voice, with a mysterious light flashing in his eyes.

"Is this true? Is this news reliable?" Another monk frowned with doubt on his face.

"It's absolutely true! I have a cousin who works in Longyin Pavilion, and he told me this secretly. It is said that the secret book is extremely powerful. If we can understand it, the strength of Longyin Pavilion will be further improved." The monk patted his chest and made the assurance with a confident look on his face.

"Won't the selection this time be extremely strict?" a monk said worriedly.

"That's natural. So those of us who don't have much background and talent probably have no hope." Another monk shook his head helplessly, a look of loss on his face.

Su Nan pondered this news in her heart. If this was true, then entering the Dragon Roar Pavilion this time would be even more difficult. However, she did not back down because of this. Instead, she became more determined.

Then, I heard two elderly monks at another table discussing something.

"I heard that some disciples in Longyin Pavilion seem to have disappeared inexplicably recently, and the pavilion is secretly investigating the matter." A cultivator had a solemn expression and a low voice.

"How could such a thing happen? Could it be that some enemy is secretly causing trouble?" Another monk widened his eyes in surprise, his face full of disbelief.

"That's unknown, but this matter has been kept secret, so there must be some hidden story behind it." The monk shook his head and sighed softly.

Su Nan frowned slightly. This news made her even more curious about the situation inside Longyin Pavilion.

At this moment, a businessman at the next table said, "I heard that the Dragon Roar Pavilion's master's daughter is suffering from a strange disease, and the master is very worried about it."

"Oh? There is such a thing? Doesn't that mean the Pavilion Master has no intention of managing the affairs of the Pavilion?"

"That may not be the case, but it may have an impact on some of Longyin Pavilion's decisions."

Su Nan silently kept the information in mind. In just one meal, she got so many secrets about Longyin Pavilion. She didn't know whether they were true or false, but it provided her with some clues and directions for thinking for her future actions.
