Time passed day by day, autumn turned to winter, winter to spring, and all the work for the relocation of the capital was basically completed. Everything was ready, and all that was left was to go to Yancheng on an auspicious day.

For nearly half a year, the Luoyang Sword Sect failed to find the Taiyin Divine Sect's hiding place, and at most wiped out some of the Taiyin Divine Sect's small fry.

Just as Xue Linglong said, the Taiyin Sect Leader was an extremely cautious person. Almost none of the core members of the Taiyin Sect came out to cause trouble, as if they had disappeared from this world.

Lu Chen had already prepared himself mentally, so he didn't care too much about it. He just wanted to unify the world as soon as possible and raise his cultivation to the Celestial Realm.

The past six months have been tough for Xue Linglong and Bai Qingqing, as they were the only two by Lu Chen's side. Lu Chen had listened to the ministers' advice and conducted a selection of concubines, but after much searching, he couldn't find a woman who scored 90 points.

Lu Chen even suspected that there might be something wrong with the system. There were so many beautiful young ladies from prominent families in the capital, yet in the end, not a single woman scored 90 points. This was indeed hard to explain.

Lu Chen questioned the system, asking if it was doing this on purpose, but the system replied that it was a normal phenomenon.

Later, Lu Chen gradually discovered what was going on. It turned out that women with a score of over 90 had special features, not just beautiful appearances.

Having no other choice, Lu Chen focused all his attention on Bai Qingqing and Xue Linglong, trying to get them pregnant with his children.

As a result, the two of them have to serve Lu Chen every day, especially Xue Linglong, that vixen. Lu Chen is not polite to her at all, and as a result, Xue Linglong still hasn't gotten pregnant.

Lu Chen has come to terms with it now. If he can't get pregnant, he can't get pregnant. There's no need for him to be too fixated on it. Fortunately, before he went south, he got Qin Yuwei pregnant with his child.

Once Qin Yuwei's child is born, he should be able to gain another power, which will make it easier for him to unify the world.

After more than half a year of governance, the Great Xia has stabilized, and the ownership of the land has been basically transferred. Now, the ownership of the land nominally belongs to Emperor Lu Chen.

Of course, this only stipulates land ownership in the name of law, but the buying and selling of land is not completely prohibited, and if the state needs to expropriate land, it will still provide certain compensation.

After internal stability was achieved, Lu Chen only had two important tasks left: to move the capital and to destroy the various dynasties.

Soon, the date for moving the capital was set.

The capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Imperial Study.

Lu Chen was processing memorials when Bai Qingqing's voice came, "Your Majesty, Grand Scholar Xuanyuan requests an audience."

Lu Chen said, "Come in."

Xuanyuan Chaoge then entered the imperial study, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen said calmly, "No need for formalities."

"Grand Scholar Xuanyuan, I intend to have you remain in the capital to oversee the Six Ministries. What are your thoughts?"

Currently, the Great Xia Dynasty has two Grand Scholars: Zhuge Chongguang and Xuanyuan Chaoge.

Although they were both Grand Secretaries, their statuses differed. Zhuge Chongguang was a Grand Secretary of the Wenyuan Pavilion, while Xuanyuan Chaoge was a Grand Secretary of the Wu Pavilion.

The two belong to different systems, but Lu Chen needs a trustworthy person to keep an eye on the people in the capital to prevent them from causing trouble, and Xuan Yuan Chaoge is very suitable.

Moreover, Xuanyuan Chaoge is a celestial being. With a celestial being present, the officials in the capital wouldn't dare to do anything.

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Xuan Yuan Chaoge immediately replied, "Your subject will certainly not fail Your Majesty's expectations."

Xuanyuan Chaoge also knew the importance of the Six Ministries in the capital. Although the power of the Six Ministries in the capital would become smaller and smaller in the future, at present, there were still so many officials in the Six Ministries in the capital. If they were not kept in mind, these officials might collude with each other in private and do things that would harm the Great Xia.

Lu Chen continued, "Then I'll have to trouble Grand Scholar Xuanyuan. The telegraph machine has been made and will be ready for use soon. If anything happens in the capital in the future, you can report to me through the telegraph machine."

Xuanyuan Chaoge replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

……

After the people who would remain in the capital were determined, the relocation of the capital officially began early the next morning.

Before the capital was moved, many officials' families had already moved to Yancheng, so the relocation was relatively quick.

More than half a month later.

Yancheng.

Today, Yancheng was packed with people, with almost all of the local residents coming out to welcome the guests.

Now that Yancheng has become the capital, the lives of the people of Yancheng will become better. Even if the people of Yancheng do nothing, the prices of the houses they bought before will rise rapidly.

It's not just the new city; the old Yancheng is experiencing the same phenomenon. Land prices in the old city are also rising rapidly, and the people of Yancheng are becoming increasingly wealthy.

All of this is thanks to Lu Chen, so the people of Yancheng are now only grateful to their new emperor.

Soon, the sound of a train "whoosh" could be heard in the distance. The new city was some distance from the train station, but upon hearing the train, people realized that the new emperor was about to arrive, and the city gate quickly fell silent.

Not long after, a luxurious carriage drove up from a distance, and sitting inside was Lu Chen.

At this moment, Mu Zixuan, along with her wives and concubines, stood quietly at the entrance of the new palace, waiting for Lu Chen's return.

Sitting in the carriage, Lu Chen was very anxious. He hadn't seen his wives and concubines for a long time and missed them dearly.

Meanwhile, sitting in another carriage, Xue Linglong took a piece of fine silk and wiped away imaginary tears, muttering to herself, "Finally back in Yancheng..."

During her time in the capital, she had to serve Lu Chen almost every day. Even if she were to become more depraved, she couldn't take it anymore.

Lu Chen possessed healing magic, so she rarely felt uncomfortable. However, the long-term stimulation had slowed down her brain considerably.

Moreover, she found herself increasingly developing in the direction of a female slave, and every time she saw Lu Chen, she would involuntarily lift her buttocks.

Now that he's back, Lu Chen's wives and concubines have been waiting for him in Yancheng for almost a year. They've probably been itching to get back to him. With them around, Lu Chen definitely won't be coming to see them for a long time to come.

Now she can finally get some rest.

Thinking of this, Xue Linglong felt extremely happy. Back when she was in the Taiyin Divine Sect, she never dreamed that she, a demoness, would have such a day.

Other demonic women from the same sect would go and drain men dry, using their yang energy to cultivate, but this demonic woman of the sect fell into the hands of men, being repeatedly ravaged by the devil Lu Chen.

Thinking of this, Xue Linglong couldn't help but sigh. What kind of demonic witch was she?

Lu Chen's carriage soon arrived at the palace gate.

The palace was expanded on the basis of the original Northern Prince's Mansion. When the Northern Prince's Mansion was built, enough land was reserved for expansion. At that time, Lu Chen was actually thinking about moving the capital.

Upon arriving at the palace gates, Lu Chen alighted from the carriage, and Mu Zixuan and the others immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Now that Lu Chen is the emperor, he is no longer the vassal king he once was. Although they miss Lu Chen very much and want to rush over and hug him, they ultimately restrained their impulses.

Seeing that Mu Zixuan and Chu Yuqin didn't come over to hug him, Lu Chen instantly understood what they were worried about.

Lu Chen then said with a smile, "My ladies, I'm back."

At this point, Lu Chen walked directly to Mu Zixuan. Before Mu Zixuan could say anything, Lu Chen hugged Mu Zixuan and Chu Yuqin, who was standing next to her, into his arms.

Lu Chen continued, "Although I am now the emperor, I am still your husband. Your coldness towards me is very disappointing."

Upon hearing this, everyone rushed forward and surrounded them.

They were actually worried that Lu Chen's temperament would change drastically after becoming emperor, but now it seems they had worried unnecessarily. (End of Chapter)
