Chapter 421: I’m So Smart Because I Learned It From Daddy and Mommy!
Ever since she heard Lin Xuan’s understanding of etiquette in Immeasurable Heaven, Donghuang Ziyou was even more determined to let Lin Xuan enter politics.
She felt that Lin Xuan had a natural talent for politics. His thoughts were quite insightful and shrewd.
Often, a single sentence from him could enlighten them and solve the problem they faced.
However, thinking of Lin Xuan’s attitude towards politics and his unrestrained personality,
Donghuang Ziyou knew that it was impossible to force Lin Xuan.
She had no choice. In order to make her man more outstanding, she had to do her best.
For example, she had recently encountered a political problem. After full consideration, she wanted to ask Lin Xuan.
Firstly, they could get some new ideas from him.
Secondly, by doing this, she would slowly nurture Lin Xuan’s interest.
Lin Xuan nodded calmly. “Speak.”
Donghuang Ziyou stopped smiling. Her beautiful face was filled with a serious expression, and her beautiful phoenix eyes flashed with a sharp light.
Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
In his previous life, this woman would have been a classic career woman who was devoted to her career.
......Donghuang Ziyou said, “I heard something recently. The general idea is that North Mystic Heaven’s Luo Xing Kingdom has an army that specializes in dealing with demon invasions. It was originally led by a general called Xu Qiang, but Xu Qiang died in battle.”
“Luo Xing Kingdom’s king asked if anyone in the court could take over Xu Qiang’s position. Grand Tutor Zhao Jun nominated Wang Xiao, the son of the Minister of War, Wang Dehe. However, Zhao Jun and Wang Dehe had a huge conflict in the past. Luo Xing Kingdom’s king secretly suspected that Zhao Jun wanted to take the opportunity to kill Wang Xiao.”
“What do you think about this?”
Seeing her asking sincerely, Lin Xuan found a similar story in the Absolute Mystic Sutra. After finding it, he asked,
“Then has Zhao Jun recommended anyone in the past?”
Donghuang Ziyou nodded. “He once recommended his son to be a Grand Scholar.”
Lin Xuan asked again, “Then how’s his son doing?”
Donghuang Ziyou said, “His performance was very good. Everyone could tell.”
Lin Xuan smiled slightly. “Zhao Jun is impartial towards his relatives and enemies when it comes to recommendations. I feel that he’s not a person who will use his job for personal vendettas. He can be trusted.”
What Donghuang Ziyou said was exactly the same as the story recorded in the Sutra.
To Lin Xuan, answering this question was easy.
Donghuang Ziyou was stunned.
“Impartial towards his relatives and enemies when it comes to recommendations… This is too well said!”
Lin Xuan’s summary was concise and in line with her thoughts, so she couldn’t help but reveal a delighted expression.
A smile of admiration appeared on her fair face, and the charming look in her beautiful eyes almost made the sun pale in comparison.
“You’re right. Later on, Wang Xiao found out about this and expressed his gratitude for Zhao Jun’s recognition and recommendation. He had long wanted to lead the army to fight the demons.”
She thought to herself that her judgment of Lin Xuan was very correct.
Lin Xuan seemed aloof, but he had the wisdom to see through the essence of things.
In the future, as long as she guided him more and helped him showcase his talent, he would definitely be able to bring her unexpected surprises.
The servants at the side couldn’t help but sigh when they saw Donghuang Ziyou’s smile.
In the past, unless the empress was with the children, it was very difficult to see her smile.
Now, the empress was delighted by the Consort’s casual reply.
It seemed that the empress really admired the Consort.
It made sense.
If not for the fact that the Consort was knowledgeable, talented, and filled with wisdom, how could he make the empress willingly give birth to four adorable babies for him?
Seeing that Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou had finished talking, the four little girls at the side ran to Donghuang Ziyou’s side.
“Mother, Father made us a tangram. Come take a look!”
“That’s right. We even know how to build a phoenix!”
“Mother, come here quickly!”
Donghuang Ziyou’s expression was gentle. “Alright!”
When she was talking to Lin Xuan, her daughters stood at the side obediently and didn’t interrupt.
Donghuang Ziyou naturally doted on these four cute and obedient babies.
After following Xuan Zhu and the others to the table, Donghuang Ziyou saw a horse made out of a tangram.
“This man is really a genius at taking care of children!”
Donghuang Ziyou had also read many craftsmen’s books, but she had never seen a building block as exquisite as the tangram.
This made her praise him.
“Mother, let’s build a phoenix for you to see!”
Xuan Zhu and the others grabbed the tangram. The four of them worked together and quickly created a phoenix.
Donghuang Ziyou rubbed their little heads dotingly. “My babies built it so well!”
“It’s all because Daddy taught us well!”
The little girls didn’t forget the person who helped them. They always remembered Lin Xuan’s kindness.
This made Lin Xuan sigh with emotion. What four considerate girls!
“Mother, do you know how to play this?” Xuan Xi asked.
Donghuang Ziyou observed the tangram carefully. “I’ll try it.”
With that, her fair hand danced gently and wrapped spiritual energy around the seven wooden boards while reassembling them from afar.
In just two seconds, a pattern of a palace appeared on the table.
Xuan Zhu and the others were instantly stunned.
“Wow, a palace!”
“Mother, you’re so awesome. You finished it in an instant!”
“Yes, yes, yes. That’s why I’m so smart. I got it from Daddy and Mommy!”
…
Hearing the little girls’ praise, Donghuang Ziyou smiled.
She felt that although she didn’t like to play, she had to join their games when she was with children.
This way, they wouldn’t feel estranged.
The servants were impressed when they saw how easily Donghuang Ziyou assembled the tangram.
They thought to themselves that the empress and the Consort were indeed a couple. They were really a pair of geniuses!
Two hours after Donghuang Ziyou played with Xuan Zhu and the others,
Donghuang Ziyou looked at the sky and asked Lin Xuan,
“Today is the auspicious day of the opening of North Mystic Heaven and the Immeasurable Heaven’s Divine Martial Academy. Are you interested in taking a look?”
She felt that letting Lin Xuan come into contact with martial arts might arouse his interest in martial arts.
Lin Xuan said casually, “Let’s ask the children first.”
Xuan Zhu and the others hurriedly asked, “Mother, what is the Divine Martial Academy?”
Donghuang Ziyou smiled and said, “This is a martial arts academy that I specially established to nurture future generals.”
“In the Divine Martial Academy, not only can various martial arts geniuses cultivate martial arts, but they can also receive military training at the same time. After they finish learning, they can directly join the army. Divine Martial Academy can provide our army with endless talent.”
“The benefit of this is that many aspiring martial artists can undergo the training of the army from the beginning and not have to transfer to the army after cultivating in the other sects’ Holy Lands for many years.”
Thinking that one of her future daughters would definitely take over her job, she patiently explained a little more.
“Oh, this can indeed save a lot of time!”
“That’s right, and it’s more formal!”
“This academy is really interesting. We have to go take a look!”
The little girls acutely discerned Donghuang Ziyou’s intention, which made Lin Xuan and Donghuang Ziyou very satisfied.
It was getting late.
Donghuang Ziyou then summoned the Mystic Ice Jade Carriage and boarded it with Lin Xuan and her daughters.
