e person in the lead immediately refused."If you all refuse the silver, then it means you are not hired by the government to suppress bandits. If there are casualties during this mission, you will hav...All the news recently returned from Fenqi Country has been good, so the entire country is filled with joy. The eldest princess is even happier than everyone else, after all, she has consecutively captured four cities, which is a great achievement in expanding the territory. So lately, her face has been constantly smiling, and even when facing the faction of the second princess, she has been surprisingly amicable.

After the message was delivered to Ripple, she nodded in acknowledgement and then addressed the Grand Duchess:

The pensions for fallen soldiers must be paid in full. They fought for our Phoenix Kingdom, and we cannot leave their husbands and children without support.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have already drafted another document. I will have General Fengming report the names of the fallen officers and soldiers. Besides the regular death benefits, I also want to exempt their families from paying taxes for three years."

Furthermore, the children of fallen soldiers can attend school and have three years of tuition waived. Even if they don't achieve great academic success, studying will still provide them with more opportunities.

If an orphan is willing to enlist, at the age of fourteen they can join the camp directly with their deceased mother's proof of death and be trained from a young age.

The Grand Princess had obviously discussed this with her confidants for a long time, so her words were well-organized and she had considered all aspects.

Ripples nodded slightly, then spoke:

"Your suggestions are all good, but you should also be mindful of the elderly widows and widowers living alone. Some people might target them, especially by putting tax-exempt land under their names to evade taxes."

As for the children of deceased soldiers, they should be exempt from tuition fees for three years. It would be best to establish a designated academy in each city. We could provide certain support, and the academies wouldn't necessarily have to bear the burden alone; they could choose mid-range institutions instead.

The ripples didn't linger, she only pointed out a few key points, which benefited the eldest princess greatly and helped her understand how difficult it was for her own mother.

"How many days did you give the Panlong Kingdom to consider this time"

"Three days."

"Do you think they will compromise"

At this point, they should be considering whether to join forces with the other two countries to deal with us.

This is the conclusion drawn by Grand Princess based on information relayed by her undercover agents.

What is your countermeasure

"I intend to use the pieces of the Xuanwu Kingdom and Baihu Kingdom, to stir up the emperors of these two countries, and muddy the waters."

The Great Princess considered her words carefully before expressing her thoughts.

The closer the pawns of Fengqi Country are to the imperial authority, the less likely they are to be used. Employing these top-tier spies means they have no chance of survival. It also indicates that Fengqi Country is at its last resort and has no other choice but to use them.

"Are the fourth and sixth princes of Panlong Country still alive"

The ripples suddenly asked a question that was completely off-topic.

"Missing, we suspect he's like the fifth prince, not dead, just hiding and waiting for the right opportunity."

Since you want to stir up trouble, why not just use someone else to kill him Let the princes fight amongst themselves and create chaos within the Panlong Kingdom. There's only one throne, and now that this one has fallen, the other two will naturally come forward.

Ripples said lightly.

She really didn't want too many soldiers from the Phoenix Soaring Nation to die or be injured. She would feel heartbroken if even one soldier was lost, as it wasn't easy for the Phoenix Soaring Nation to cultivate such capable soldiers.

The eldest princess's heart skipped a beat. She clearly felt that the Empress's words carried hidden meaning, perhaps she was too sensitive.

"Ahem, Empress Dowager, was the assassin disguised as the Fifth Prince"

You only have this one card in your hand, it shouldn't be hard to find a couple of items that symbolize his identity from him, should it

"Mother, rest assured, your child knows what to do."

The Grand Princess immediately left Zhu Xiuan to attend to matters.

Warning! Warning! A transmigrating soul is preparing to leave its host and seek a new one. Tasker, please act quickly.

The sound of the millstone echoed beside him, mixed with the wail of sirens.

With ripples of concern furrowing her brows, Lian Ri Mei directly called out:

"Phoenix Head, go see the fifth prince of Panlong Nation. Don't let him die."

"Yes!"

The phoenix head appeared, but its body remained unseen. It let out a single sound before vanishing.

Ripple clearly sensed that as soon as the Phoenix Head left, another person immediately took its place and stood beside her.

The ripples have now entered the second stage of Qi refining, adjusting her original body to its optimal state. Then it became difficult to advance further. It wasn't because she wasn't hardworking enough, but because most of the spiritual energy points within Zhu Xiu Yuan had been absorbed by her.

To achieve a breakthrough, one must leave the capital city and go to remote, primal mountains where the spiritual energy is more potent. However, with her current status, she cannot easily leave the capital.

The ripples then placed the vase of flowers carefully in Lanxin's hand, instructing her to deliver it to the wise steward. Only then did she communicate with the millstone:

"You just warned me that Huo Mingliang is going to detach from the body of the Fifth Prince, meaning he could possess someone else again"

"Yes!"

"This spirit is so troublesome!"

"

Nineteen, don't tell me this mission has been upgraded again

"Cough, a secondary mission"

"I knew it! Originally, I just needed to choose an heir for the original owner and get rid of this transmigrated soul. It's a pity that this person is quite capable and actually got hold of the Infinite Revival Card!"

Ripples said very calmly, "Anyway, there's always some trouble with every mission. I'm used to it."

"The main readers were some men who shared the same understanding of the traverser Huo Mingliang. They formed an obsession in "Wu Xiang," wanting to correct what they believed to be wrong ideas, so they gave soul-traveling transmigrators the ability to change bodies."

The stone mill, dry and cracked, explained.

"That means that as long as he's not satisfied with the body he's inhabiting after a soul possession, he can kill himself and then find a new vessel"

Theoretically, that’s how it works.

"Then I'd better cultivate as quickly as possible and use my cultivation techniques to completely shatter the soul of that time traveler."

Ripples said in a cold voice.

The stone grinder touched his nonexistent forehead, and immediately explained:

That small world hasn't met the conditions to evolve into a cultivation world. Even if you cultivate, you'll be unable to break through the Foundation Establishment stage your whole life.

As for eliminating this soul that traverses realms, he's currently unaware that after detaching from his present body, he can still exist and seek a new vessel to inhabit. So, as long as we keep him alive, allowing him to remain in this body for an extended period, until his soul and flesh completely merge, then upon the demise of his physical form, his soul will also perish.

"How long will that take A year, two years, or eight, ten years If the Panlong Kingdom descends into chaos this time, he wouldn't need to live anyway."

"Ten years."

"What a hassle!"

Ripple murmured something, but the stone mill didn't respond.

And the Phoenix head, meanwhile, went back and forth, reporting to the ripples:

"Your Majesty, an assassin from the Panlong Kingdom arrived to kill the Fifth Prince. Thankfully, the Imperial Princess was prepared. She had two guards protecting him, and I arrived in time to save him."

It's just that the Fifth Prince had an arm severed and bled excessively. The imperial physician is currently treating him, while all those assassins have committed suicide by poison.

"Take the three-hundred-year-old ginseng from the treasury. You must save the Fifth Prince, Your Majesty said he cannot die within the borders of Fengqi Nation, not even if he has to."

"Yes!"elp him remove the cold poison."Since the other party offered a low price, she naturally wanted to meet it with an even lower counter-offer. She wasn't about to take a loss."Alright, it's better to st...
