Omnipotent Husband System

*Ding: Host, it has been detected that you have completed all the goals that were set for you by the system. Please proceed to the final step and complete the coronation ceremony to receive the rewards.*

Hao Ren was embracing Han Lingshi when he heard this. After a few moments, she calmed down and Hao Ren said, "Lingshi, what do you think? Shall we hold the coronation within a week?"

Han Lingshi was surprised and replied, "No, what is the hurry? My realm has yet to reach the golden core level. I am not possibly worthy of ruling a kingdom like this."

Hao Ren thought for a moment and took out the Moon Time Acceleration Hourglass and said, "This artifact will allow you to raise your strength. It works like this..."

He spend some time telling her about the use of the artifact. Hao Ren was aware of her temperament, he could not tell her that she was his wife so she could rule the vast province that he had conquered for her.

Han Lingshi suddenly asked, "Ren, why are we in a secluded place? Where are the people? I understand that palaces are surrounded by the cities, right?"

Hao Ren smiled and extended his hand to her. Han Lingshi took his hand and then Hao Ren gently helped her stand as he began to lead her to walk. Han Lingshi suddenly noticed that every step that she took was on a higher level than the other. It was as if she was climbing stairs in the void.

She smiled at Hao Ren, who smiled back at her. She was surprised by the ease of his action, and she remarked, "Are you trying to flex the strength of a Planetary realm expert?"

Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "Look, there is your capital."

Han Lingshi corrected him, "Our capital."

She looked down, and under a thin cloak of clouds, she spotted a city sparkling with lights. Hao Ren said, "I employed help from Xiao Mei, and we now have a sophisticated communication system which is powered by spiritual energy."

Han Lingshi raised her eyebrow and said, "I feel like I have missed out on a lot of things."

Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "You lose some and you gain some Lingshi, on the contrary it was better that you were not here. What I did was just a superficial thing, now you will need to stabilize the situation on your own. Although I am a Planet Shattering realm expert, I cannot just go and kill everyone who does not agree with me. Managing the house is the duty of a wife, similarly managing the political lobby is the responsibility of the Empress."

Han Lingshi raised her brows and asked, "Even after you subdued the royal families alone, are there still people who do not agree to give in?"

Hao Ren nodded, "The business of the sects is not something that I can handle with too much force. On the other hand there are the forces of the buddhist sects. They seek to gain worship from the citizens. This sort of thing will dampen the faith people have for the Crown and eventually affect the national providence."

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "I see, I will study this issue in the coming days. Such issues need to be procrastinated for a bit as I have no idea what to do."

Hao Ren thought about it and said, "How about you breakthrough first and in the meantime I will have all the data gathered for you to read?"

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "I will follow your arrangement."

Hao Ren nodded and then he took the woman back to the palace. Han Lingshi said, "Ren, the best way to govern the people is to connect with the people. I do not want to have distance among us. Can you put this palace back on the ground?"

Hao Ren nodded with a smile and said, "I will do it."

The couple came back and after greeting the close and important people in the palace, Han Lingshi realized that Hao Ren has formed a big family that was loyal to him. She saw the reverence the people held for him in their eyes. She could not help but imagine the amount of effort the young man must have put into forging such deep bonds.

She sat down in the pavilion and began to cultivate. Hao Ren on the side, watched her and dissolved some high level pills into powder, which was then absorbed by Han Lingshi. He was sitting on the side, accelerating her cultivation speed.

Ye Lan came over, and asked, "Big brother, would Young Miss not have dinner?"

Hao Ren smiled faintly and asked, "You girls are looking forward to impress your Young Miss, no?"

Ye Lan bowed her head with a blush and Hao Ren replied, "I will handle the cooking for her, gather all the information we have on the strong forces that could pose a threat to the political stability of the country."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ye Lan nodded and left quickly. Hao Ren looked at Han Lingshi before he stood up and retrieved stuff from his space ring. He began to cook simple dishes for Han Lingshi.

...

After a couple of hours, all the information recorded by them had been gathered in one place, and Han Lingshi opened her eyes when she finished cultivating. She said, "I still have some distance from the golden core."

She smelled the fragrance in the air and her eyes sparked up. She looked around and found Hao Ren setting up a table with a variety of dishes on it. The young man smiled as he looked up, and beckoned her over. Han Lingshi went over, and the two began to eat with relish.

Hao Ren did not need to eat food, but he wanted to keep his wife company. He told her many things that he did in this world, and every few minutes, Han Lingshi would erupt in laughter. The guards and the people in the palace could hear her voice and they all bore a relaxed expression on their faces.

The night passed with Hao Ren spending time with Han Lingshi, until she went to cultivate. Hao Ren told her that he would go and run an errand to come back in the morning. The young man erected a defensive and isolation barrier around her with Ye Lan waiting on her.

It was almost sunrise when Han Lingshi opened her eyes and found Ye Lan standing at the side. She stood up from the ground and asked gently, "Have you been waiting on me this entire time? Are you okay?"

Ye Lan smiled and replied, "I have fine, Young Miss, this is my task, you do not have to worry. Shall I lead you to your bedroom?"

Han Lingshi shook her head and said, "I can go on without sleeping, so I will first read the information on the strong forces."

Ye Lan was surprised and said, "Big brother and you are both similar."

Han Lingshi smiled and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Ye Lan replied, "Ever since he reached the Soul Transformation Realm he stopped sleeping, and only closed his eyes when he was cultivating. You are the same."

Han Lingshi was shocked when she heard this, and in a daze she followed Ye Lan to the imperial study where a lot of books were placed, and Maya Okudera was reading through some scrolls with Xi beside her.

The two ladies saw her approach and stood up to greet her. Han Lingshi told them to sit down first and began to read the information with them. After a couple of hours, thanks to the hyper speed, they she had finished reading the information and asked, "What do you think we should do?"

Xi said, "If we kill them, the hearts of the populace will turn cold and it can lead to rebellion."

Maya continued, "If we give in, they will think we are weak and try to grab a mile for an inch."

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "Do the people know that the government have exchanged hands?"

The two ladies nodded, and Han Lingshi said, "Gather the people have them vote. Ask them if they would like to live in a world where the authority over them is polite and transparent, or they wish to be bullied by these so called high borns. We will decide depending on the opinion of the people."

The two women nodded, and Xi asked, "What if the high borns tried to manipulate the legislation?"

Han Lingshi replied with a smile, "Kill them. Since they do not wish to do things fairly, why shall we?"

The people were surprised, Maya took a deep breath and said, "I did not expect you to develop this kill or be killed mindset so quickly."

Han Lingshi shook her head and replied, "Back home, there are people who would not hesitate killing for petty gains, we are still looking forward to establish a kingdom. Since we are already selfish, why should we be hypocrites? We are not doing things out of the greater good, but for personal satisfaction."

Han Lingshi had comprehended the heart of chess, she knew when to deceive and when to be decisive. This was the trait of an Empress.
