My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

This was something they never dared to imagine before.

But now, something that was once unthinkable has actually come true for some people.

How could anyone not be envious and yearn for it?

During the morning court session, some people began to advise that aristocratic families should send all their best sons to the palace for the Emperor to choose from and appoint as consorts.

After Ji Yunshuang rejected their advice, others came up with other ideas.

Lu Yinheng had experienced these things once before, back in Qiongdu.

During his first experience, Lu Yinheng was extremely nervous and often couldn't sleep at night.

But now, I can handle it with ease.

Those scions of noble families who harbored ill intentions and attempted to seduce Ji Yunshuang were all warned by him and transferred from their original positions.

Soon, Lu Yinheng's reputation for being jealous of her husband spread throughout the capital.

Because of deliberate spreading by malicious individuals,

A steady stream of talented young people came to Ji Yunshuang.

This was not the first time Lu Yinheng had witnessed such a scene.

Although he felt a pang of sadness, he tried his best to convince himself otherwise.

Yunshuang is so outstanding, it would be reasonable for her to choose more imperial consorts.

Unexpectedly, Ji Yunshuang had no such intention.

Rather than building a harem, Ji Yunshuang would rather vigorously develop agriculture and technology, change the status of women, and transform this world into a civilized world before the apocalypse.

However, besides that, there was something else that had been bothering her.

After she had completely taken control of the land, she finally received news from the witch clan again.

To her surprise, the witch clan actually had a very secret import and export channel, and that channel was located within her business.

The one who controls that import and export route is the true holy maiden of the witch clan.

When she learned that some members of the Wu tribe had left their territory without permission and caused such a great disaster, she closed all the passages for the Wu tribe members to leave the area.

This shutdown of everyone also affected her body.

Realizing her time was near, she released the news to lure Ji Yunshuang over.

Since it concerns the Wu Clan, no matter how busy Ji Yunshuang is, she will make the trip herself.

I thought this time it would also be a disappointment, but it turned out to be true.

She simply didn't expect that the old woman she met when she first arrived in Hongdu and rented a house would be like this.

These are actually members of the Wu tribe?

Looking at the old woman in front of her, Ji Yunshuang couldn't help but think of the time she rented the house from her.

She remembered that she thought the tree in her yard was very special, and she even associated it with the apocalypse, wondering if the tree had mutated.

But I never imagined that she was a member of the witch clan.

Seeing Ji Yunshuang's completely unexpected expression, the old woman smiled, sat down under the tree, and said, "Aren't you surprised?"

Her voice was weak. "Originally, I just wanted to be an ordinary person and grow old here. I never expected so many things to happen later."

As she spoke, she stood up, knelt down before Ji Yunshuang, and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you, thank you for saving those innocent people."

Ji Yunshuang could tell that the old woman had no hostility towards her and was genuinely grateful.

She reached out and helped the old woman to her seat. She had many questions in her mind, but she didn't ask them.

She sensed that the old woman had a lot to say to her, and that she would tell her even if she didn't ask.

In fact, it is true.

As soon as the old woman sat down, she said to herself, "You must be very curious as to why I came to you."

Ji Yunshuang asked, "Is there something you want to ask me?"

The old woman said, "After I realized that someone was doing something against the will of Heaven, I sealed off all the roads leading to the outside world from the Wu Clan. Now, all the members of the Wu Clan live in the clan's territory and can no longer step out of the clan's territory."
