Time slowly passes by.

Princess Zhao Ren didn't want to leave, and the atmosphere in the alchemy room was gradually becoming subtle.

Suddenly, voices of discussion came from outside the alchemy room.

"Sister, is the husband teaching someone alchemy again?"

Li Qiu Shui sighed, "Yes, he's teaching the second princess alchemy this time. It's taking even longer than yesterday. Look, it's already dark."

Yang Xiao Mi looked displeased. Zhang Ran had promised to teach her painting, but today he went to teach someone else alchemy.

"Hmph, I don't care. The prince hasn't taught me painting for days. I'm going to find him."

With that, Yang Xiao Mi was about to push the door open.

"Don't, I advise you to wait for him to come out. If you see something unpleasant, it'll be uncomfortable," Sister Two whispered and held onto Yang Xiao Mi.

"Hmph, what unpleasant thing could there be? I'm not a child anymore, what is there to be afraid of?"

"I think it's better not to go in," Li Qiu Shui insisted. Otherwise, it would be particularly awkward for Princess Zhao Ren.

In the end, Yang Xiao Mi suppressed her curiosity. Suddenly, she felt that bursting in like this might be exciting if she stumbled upon something good.

But after thinking about it, she decided against it. She wouldn't do such a sneaky thing.

Two days later, Zhang Ran finally taught Princess Zhao Ren the basics of alchemy.

"Your talent for alchemy is much better than formations. I didn't work hard for nothing," Zhang Ran said as he led Princess Zhao Ren out.

"Where did that come from? It's all thanks to the prince's careful teaching, especially..." Princess Zhao Ren blushed and couldn't find the words to continue.

For some reason, she felt that Zhang Ran was warm-hearted and gentle, and she had fallen for him.

Ah, she was really hopeless.

"Ah, I'm truly a hardworking teacher," Zhang Ran sighed and muttered to himself.

Watching Princess Zhao Ren leave, he shook his head.

He thought to himself, "Ah, I should send a message to Emperor Qian in advance, so I won't have to explain later."

"These are all sincere love for me, and I love them too. Emperor Qian won't say anything about two people falling in love, right?"

Then, he took out a spiritual stone and carved a formation on it. He wrote a long message on it.

With a whoosh, the jade stone disappeared.

As soon as the message was sent, Yang Xiao Mi came over with an angry expression.

"Prince, you promised to teach me painting. It's been so many days, hurry up."

Zhang Ran slapped his forehead. He had been too busy with alchemy recently, and with so many pills, he had almost forgotten about this matter.

"Indeed, I almost forgot about it. Come, I'll teach you painting."

"Let's go to the small bend behind the mountain. The environment there is good, with green grass and plants, and few people. You can paint whatever you want, and it'll just be the two of us." Yang Xiao Mi had already thought of the location and took Zhang Ran to the back mountain.

When the other princesses came to look for the prince, they found that Zhang Ran was not there.

Then they saw that Princess Zhao Ren and Princess Tian Yang had both moved into the inner city.

They couldn't help but think of a possibility.

"These two, could they have become the prince's consorts so quickly?"

"What's impossible? The prince is approachable, talented, and most importantly, his alchemy skills and cultivation are unparalleled. If they become his Dao companions, there will be many benefits." A woman in a red dress said nonchalantly.

In truth, she also had this idea, but she was bound by her mother's arrangements. The family had already chosen to marry her to the sixth prince.

And the other princesses also had their own destinies.

Princess Tianxin couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Ah, if it weren't for my family preparing to marry me off to the young master of the Mysterious Spirit Gate, this prince would truly be a good choice."

Every time the family mentioned the Mysterious Spirit Gate, there was an immense sense of awe.

The Mysterious Spirit Gate is a super sect in the central region, comparable to the Great Qian Dynasty, but it is very far away.

If a Nascent Soul cultivator were to fly there, it would take two to three years.

Therefore, they usually use teleportation arrays controlled by cities or major forces to travel there.

And the young master of the Mysterious Spirit Gate is said to be in the late stage of Core Formation, and is even rumored to have achieved the legendary three-colored Core Formation, challenging the three heavenly tribulations.

Although she knows she is the daughter of the Qian Emperor, she doesn't pay much attention to how many children the Qian Emperor has.

As long as it doesn't damage his reputation, it's fine. So marrying into the Mysterious Spirit Gate would still be a wife, but that young master of the Mysterious Spirit Gate...

It is said that he is not a good person and is a bit abnormal, supposedly due to his cultivation technique.

Thinking about her future, she felt a wave of sadness.

"What if I don't?" Princess Tianxin felt a bit impulsive, but if she were to do that, the Mysterious Spirit Gate would suppress her mother's family.

Her mother is also in the central region, belonging to a cultivation family with a Nascent Soul ancestor.

However, her mother is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul. After offering her daughter to the Qian Emperor, only Princess Tianxin was left.

Their family has since prospered and tasted the sweetness.

Now they want to marry their granddaughter to the young master of the Mysterious Spirit Gate, hoping to become a legal wife this time and further increase their status and power.

So they have a well-thought-out plan.

But Princess Tianxin has always hoped for a different fate.

"Princess Tianxin, don't you also want to learn alchemy? The prince's disciples, even if you don't have talent, can reach the second rank. Why don't you give it a try?" One of the other princesses said when she saw Tianxin lost in thought.

"Alchemy? Oh, oh, the prince is not here now. I will go later," Tianxin replied.

While these princesses were discussing, a descendant of the Zhang family, Zhang Tianmo, walked over.

He is meticulous and handles many reporting tasks.

"Fourth-grade third-rank pill, the Ghost Soul Pill, is ready. Who wants it?"

"Mine, mine!" A woman in a yellow dress jumped up happily.

She took out a handful of spirit stones. "The Ninth Prince is truly amazing. These are the rewards. The rest will be sent by my family in a few days."

"Alright, then. The other pills will be available later. If you want to wait, you can stay in the prince's mansion for a few days," Zhang Tianmo said.

After receiving a large amount of spirit stones, Zhang Tianmo left. These princesses are really wealthy, allowing Zhang Ran to make a fortune.

"Huang Ying, you're so lucky. The prince actually refined yours first," the other princesses looked at her with envy.

"Yes, with this, my grandfather can break through to the late stage of Nascent Soul," Huang Ying said. It turns out she didn't come to refine the pill for her mother, but for her mother to ask for a pill for her grandfather.

The other princesses also had the same idea, all wanting to develop their mother's family's power.

"Then you can go back now. Congratulations," Princess Tianxin said.

Huang Ying looked at the depths of the Zhang family and thought about the actions of Princess Zhaoren and Princess Tianyang. She sighed and gave up.

After all, the harem of the Qian Emperor is already so terrifying. Why should she fall into another pit?

Not everyone thinks Zhang Ran is good and must follow him. These women in the harem see their mothers and other concubines calculating every day.

They know the horror of such a place and naturally don't want to go there.

But there are also those who are good at observing and are considering whether the Ninth Prince's companions are truly Integrated Union. They are making their own considerations.
