Dressing as Ziwei makes the Qing Dynasty more powerful

Chapter 163: Undersea Tour, Return to Beijing

Seeing everyone nodding in agreement, she steadily controlled the flying sword and swooped down like a nimble seagull, heading straight for the turbulent sea.

"Ah--" With a scream, Yongji couldn't help but shout out.

Although he knew his sister would never put anyone in danger, the moment he faced the unknown waters, the fear deep in his heart still made him scream uncontrollably. However, the scream was like a string being suddenly plucked, and it stopped abruptly.

It turned out that the moment they rushed into the water, a magical scene happened - the surrounding sea water seemed to be blocked by some mysterious force and could not get close to them at all. They seemed to be in a huge transparent bubble, floating safely in the underwater world.

However, this scene before them did not surprise them for long. As they continued to explore deeper and deeper, all kinds of marine life appeared one after another, which was too much to take in.

"Oh my God! The number of species in the ocean is beyond imagination. I didn't expect there are so many kinds of fish." The queen exclaimed.

"Look at that fish! It's so beautiful! Its colors are even brighter than the rainbow in the sky." Qianlong shouted excitedly, pointing at a colorful fish.

"Father, this fish is much more beautiful than the koi in our imperial garden. How about we catch a few and take them back to raise, okay?" Yongji begged, pulling at the corner of Qianlong's clothes.

"Hahaha, silly boy, there are so many fish here. Even if we want to catch them all, it is impossible to do so." Qianlong said with a smile, touching Yongji's smooth forehead.

Hearing the flurry of startled voices, Ziwei finally managed a chuckle. "These sea creatures aren't suited to a small pond. They'll struggle to adapt if they leave their familiar surroundings. On our return trip, we can go to the Yellow River and catch some large carp to raise. That way, we can enjoy them whenever we want."

"A big carp? I don't want it. How can it compare to the delicate and beautiful koi?" Yongji retorted with a look of disgust.

For a moment, everyone was amused by his innocent words and burst into laughter, and the laughter spread far and wide in the depths of the vast ocean...

The fish were frightened and fled away.

The underwater world was vast and boundless, seemingly without end. The four of them raced aimlessly across the seabed, their eyes constantly passing by colorful fish of all shapes and sizes, as well as bizarre coral reefs and seaweed. The dreamlike beauty was so dazzling that it truly feasted their eyes.

Time slipped by quietly, and before they knew it, the surroundings had become completely dark, pitch black. Only Ziwei, her bright eyes still gleaming in the darkness, seemed to be no different from daylight to her.

"The sky outside is already shrouded in darkness. Should we return now, or stay in Qiongzhou Prefecture for another day?"

Qianlong stared at the dark seabed. Although he still felt a sense of unfulfilled desire, he had been away from the capital for two days after all, and there were still many matters in the capital that needed his personal handling and arrangement.

"Ziwei, why don't we just go back to the capital! We've only been sightseeing all day, don't you need a night's rest before controlling this flying sword?"

Ziwei steadily steered her flying sword out of the sea. While no one was paying attention, she quietly found an intelligent fish and asked it for the exact location. It turned out that they were now in the vast Pacific Ocean, and they only needed to fly west to reach the capital.

"That's all right. You can sleep peacefully on your flying swords without worrying about falling. Now that the night is getting darker, I think it would be better to set off and return to the capital immediately. How about I go to Mount Wutai alone to welcome the Queen Mother back to the palace tomorrow?"

Qianlong felt a slight pity, but upon hearing her meticulous arrangements, he nodded his head without hesitation. The night was as dark as ink, with a riot of stars twinkling in the sky. In this tranquil night, the three of them felt their eyelids grow heavy, and soon they all dozed off.

The flying sword streaked across the sky at an astonishing speed, while the other three people in the midst of it were unaware that the air around them was quietly growing cooler.

Soon, the flying sword landed steadily outside Kunning Palace. Ziwei gently woke them up, watched them enter the palace, and then turned around and flew alone towards Yuhua Palace.

After returning to Yuhua Palace, Ziwei didn't immediately lie down to sleep like a typical person, but instead quickly entered a state of cultivation. Once, she had been eager to successfully establish her foundation, simply to realize her dream of flying on a sword as soon as possible; but now, she had a more pressing goal: to expand her space as quickly as possible. Many wonderful ideas were flooding her mind, eager to be put into practice.

Time flew by, and before she knew it, Ziwei had already been immersed in her cultivation for three full days. When she slowly opened her eyes and regained her sense of the outside world, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that her cultivation had solidified at the third level of Foundation Establishment! At the same time, the space she occupied had also expanded significantly, now encompassing approximately three hundred square meters.

The various items that had previously piled up in the space now occupied only a small corner, leaving the remaining large open space feeling exceptionally spacious and expansive. Even more delightful was the discovery that the fruit trees she had planted had already flourished and were blooming with vibrant, colorful flowers. Soon, this place would bear abundant fruit, and she would then be able to enjoy an endless supply of delicious fruits!

Song Yue and the others had already left the palace with her and gone to the Princess's residence to guard it. The attendants who remained in Yuhua Palace were all carefully selected and rearranged by the Empress.

Ziwei took out a large number of fruits of various kinds from the space and ordered the palace maids to deliver these fruits to various palaces.

Every kind of fruit is included, except for durian and jackfruit. After all, the unique smell of these two fruits is not acceptable to everyone. If you give them as gifts hastily, the recipients may mistakenly think that she deliberately gave them smelly and spoiled fruits.

The maids returned to Yuhua Palace one after another, each of them holding return gifts from other palaces. Looking at the exquisite and thoughtful return gifts, Ziwei couldn't help but smile, and then gently waved her hand to signal the maids to place the gifts properly and put them away.
