The Princess's Inner Thoughts Were Overheard by Her Emperor Father-Chapter 203: The Novel About Chasing My Wife in a Crematorium

[King of Chu: Recovery progress 80%.]

Xiao Chuchu looked at the system and couldn't help but silently recite in her heart.

[This hero has an extremely significant influence on the Chu State. Once recovered, Jing Country will gain Chu State's friendship for the next fifty years.]

Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.

Fifty years?

Xiao Yunzhou, hearing his fairy daughter's voice, couldn't help but take a sharp breath.

The King of Chu was already a sixty-year-old man. Could he still reign for fifty years?

No, that's not how it works!

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes widened as he quickly realized that if the King of Chu were saved, the next generation's successor, Princess Yunwu, would maintain a grateful heart towards Jing Country.

This includes the current court officials of Chu State. If they knew that the King of Chu was saved due to Jing Country's help, they would also feel grateful towards Jing Country in the future.

One generation could at least influence the next.

Fifty years.

Xiao Yunzhou was very satisfied with this number.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chuchu continued to silently read the system prompts, which brought more good news: [Hero character King of Chu: Will support Jing Country without harming Chu State's interests.]

[King of Chu's innate skill: Chu State Domination Aura — Upon successful recovery of this character, this aura will automatically activate. Jing Country's people, goods, technology, culture, etc., will henceforth gain a 20% likability bonus from Chu State's citizens.]

These inner thoughts, involving skills, auras, and numbers, took Xiao Yunzhou some time to understand.

After comprehending, Xiao Yunzhou was ecstatic!

The King of Chu actually brought a skill that no other elite character had.

[Wow, that's awesome! The Chu State Domination Aura. Once we put it on, doesn't it mean that the people of Chu State will have a filter for our Jing Country?]

Xiao Chuchu was also delighted.

[My Emperor father in Jing Country might not be liked by everyone there.]

Xiao Yunzhou: "..." His daughter was good in every way, except for her tendency to speak the brutal truth in her thoughts!

In the past, he focused on cultivating the Dao every day, and indeed relied on balancing his ministers to handle many affairs.

Unlike now, when he often personally attends to matters, visiting military camps and Xun City.

It was... normal that the people of Jing Country didn't particularly like him as their emperor before.

The more Xiao Yunzhou thought about it, the more he blushed.

[Hilarious! In the future, when Emperor father parades through Chu State, he might be liked by every Chu person, haha!]

[This Chu State Domination Aura is so useful. Let's quickly open Jing Country's specialty shops in Chu State!]

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Indeed, they needed to act quickly.

Once the aura took effect, they should immediately promote Jing Country's specialty products to these Chu State citizens who now had a favorable impression of them.

Thinking about this, Xiao Yunzhou didn't dare to be lazy anymore. He quickly called Wei Zheng to summon the important ministers to discuss the matter.

"My beloved ministers, I've called you here today to discuss how to fleece money from the Chu State citizens..."

Chancellor Fu Cha and Jiang Li from the Ministry of Revenue widened their eyes in shock.

Xiao Chuchu, in her cradle, opened her small, rosy mouth in surprise. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Xiao Yunzhou suddenly realized he had spoken his thoughts aloud and quickly corrected himself, "Ahem, what I mean is, how to work with the Chu State citizens to make money together with our Jing Country."

While Xiao Yunzhou was planning in Jing Country, things were already in an uproar in Chu State!

The Crown Prince of Chu had been deposed, and his four close eunuchs had all been beheaded.

The King of Chu quickly threw the deposed prince out of the palace, confining him to his residence and ordering him not to leave.

Within two days, Princess Yunwu was summoned to the palace.

Father and daughter looked at each other, unable to hold back their tears.

"Yun Wu, when I deposed the Crown Prince that day, there were ministers present, so I couldn't explain in detail," the King of Chu said, after having someone offer his daughter a seat.

"I've made up my mind to follow the advice of the Jing Country expert, to value daughters over sons, and establish you as my successor."

Yunwu raised her head in disbelief. What?

Value daughters over sons?

That Jing Country expert had actually persuaded, no, advised her father like this.

And her father believed it?

The King of Chu, who had nearly died twice, now fully trusted the Jing Country expert.

Both life-threatening crises had been predicted by the expert, and now the King only wanted to seek peace for himself and stability for Chu State's fortunes.

"Yun Wu, you and that unfilial son are the only two biological children of mine and the Empress."

"That beast is unfit to rule, which aligns with the expert's guidance in the secret letter — never value sons over daughters." The King of Chu wasn't afraid to tell Princess Yunwu these things.

"I'm already over sixty now." The King of Chu lowered his voice and patted Princess Yunwu's shoulder. "In the future, I don't know how long I can accompany you."

"So, Yun Wu, you must remember what your father is telling you today."

"As long as there are experts in Jing Country, there will be heavenly assistance. Our Chu State should also follow heaven's will and not be enemies with Jing."

"Yun Wu, in the future, you must never provoke the Jing Country experts!"

"When necessary, you can communicate more with Xiao Yunzhou, cater to the preferences of the Jing Country experts, and employ more women."

These were the lessons the King of Chu had learned from this experience.

Princess Yunwu didn't know the specific content of the expert's secret letter to her father, but she knew it must be extraordinarily important!

Only if the letter was extremely important, even affecting the country's fate, would it make her father, whom she remembered as always being brave, develop such respect for the expert.

Yunwu couldn't help but sit up straight and nod solemnly.

But hearing the latter part, she couldn't help but make a strange expression. "Employ more women? Father, did the Jing Country expert really say that?"

The King of Chu waved his hand, "I haven't met the expert. It was all relayed by that Xiao Yunzhou."

Princess Yunwu froze in her seat, her beautiful eyes shining brightly.

Somehow, she thought of everything she had seen in Jing Country — men taking care of children, women resting.

Women could also freely go out to work, treat patients, without regard for gender distinctions.

All laws and regulations treated men and women equally!

Princess Yunwu responded excitedly in an instant, "Father, your daughter will certainly remember your teachings today!"

She didn't care who this Jing Country expert really was.

She only knew that this expert valued women throughout the world, giving them a path. Yunwu vowed that she would implement this path in her lifetime, creating a free world for the women of Chu State!

Yunwu clenched her fists, full of ambition.

Seeing her like this, the King of Chu felt that she had more courage and ambition than the incompetent Crown Prince, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Come, draft a decree. I will go on an inspection tour in disguise."

"Princess Yunwu will handle state and military affairs on my behalf."

Yunwu was stunned.

[Wow, Princess Yunwu's favorability towards Jing Country suddenly rose to 100%.]

Xiao Chuchu, playing with a red string on her bed, unexpectedly heard the system's celebratory announcement.

[This elite character was suddenly successfully collected just now! Let me see, she also has an innate skill!]

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes widened. It really was a case of good things coming in pairs!

[Although Princess Yunwu wasn't born as the crown prince, she was ambitious from a young age. She secretly eavesdropped on the crown prince's tutor's lessons by crouching outside the window, thus cultivating her own royal talents.]

[Princess Yunwu's innate ability: Hidden Dragon — Before gaining an overwhelming advantage, enemy countries will not perceive Jing Country as a threat. The possibility of Jing Country secretly increasing its national power while lying low increases by 20%.]

"!"

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes widened. This ability was excellent.

Secretly improving?

By the time the enemies realize it, it'll be too late.

[Isn't this just playing dumb to catch the enemy off guard? Princess Yunwu, I didn't expect you to be like this.]

Xiao Chuchu was amused.

But in an instant, she became even more delighted.

[Oh my, the system says I've collected one imperial-level elite and one and a half semi-imperial-level elites. Now it's rewarding me with ten chances to draw prizes.]

Xiao Yunzhou immediately rubbed his hands in anticipation.

But in a moment, both he and Xiao Chuchu were stunned.

[Oh goodness, what's this?]

[I actually drew three romance novels about chasing after wives in disastrous situations, and one male-oriented novel about an arrogant protagonist?]

[CEO: Did Madam make a mistake? Butler: No, Madam has acquired the neighboring corporation and sent over divorce papers.]

[Hahahahaha!]

Xiao Chuchu burst out laughing.

[Oh my gosh, ancient men, tremble in fear!]

Xiao Yunzhou: "!"
