Ten years of dormancy: Starting as a martial arts master at the pinnacle

The Wang family's residence is the best guest house.

The head of the Wang family issued a strict order to everyone in the family.

Stay away from the guesthouse!

And you are absolutely forbidden from disturbing the guests in the guest quarters!!

Anyone who breaks the rules will be severely punished.

It wasn't just a verbal order; the head of the Wang family dispatched their best guards and secret agents to protect the tranquility of the courtyard.

In other words, the head of the household would visit the distinguished guests in the guest courtyard every other day, just like paying tribute.

The young masters and ladies of the Wang family were all shrewd and astute. Seeing their patriarch's state, they could roughly guess who was staying in the guest courtyard.

That's how it is.

Given the strength of the Wang family, the number one family in Jiangnan, only a handful of people could be treated as honored guests by their patriarch.

Even when those people came, the Wang family head had never been so agreeable before. This was the first time he had been so respectful.

So who is this person? Need I say more?

"I never imagined that His Highness would secretly move in."

"I wonder who he's set his sights on, and who could possibly be so lucky?"

Because that prince is engaged to a young lady from the royal family.

The Wang family submitted two names, but of course, there were more than just those two candidates.

If Li Changqing is happy, changing the candidate is not out of the question.

For the Wang family, this is a crucial step, one they must achieve no matter what.

However, the situation is different for the young masters and ladies of the Wang family.

Their Wang family is the number one family in Jiangnan, and ranks among the top two in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

Their young masters and ladies have no trouble finding partners.

Once they marry into the family, they become the head of the household, the matriarch, or the eldest daughter-in-law.

How dignified that is!

Instead of maintaining such dignity, she went to become someone's concubine.

Even though concubines are different from ordinary concubines, they are relatives of the royal family with ranks, only their status is not as high.

In the end, isn't she still just a concubine?

If the regent and the regent's wife have a bad relationship, they might be able to find something to comfort themselves.

but it is not the truth.

With the royal family's information channels and connections, they knew long ago that the Regent and the Regent's wife had a very good relationship.

Especially Regent Li Changqing, whose tolerance for the princess was simply unbelievable.

Leaving aside how many people were sent to the princess, or how much property she was given?

Just these two incidents alone are enough to make that regent prince a part of history.

We can give him two idioms specifically.

The first thing was to grant the Regent's wife freedom.

The Regent's wife can return to her parents' home at any time, or go anywhere else.

As long as she has enough guards, she can leave without even asking anyone for permission.

Which princess, let alone a princess, is like this?

Giving your wife freedom doesn't mean abandoning her completely. It means allowing her to live the life she wants.

Luo Qingqing was known among the noble ladies of Kyoto for her lively and active nature.

At that time, the noble ladies of Kyoto envied her carefree and unrestrained lifestyle.

But deep down, everyone was hoping for it.

Once this unruly little witch gets married, she probably won't be able to live her previous life anymore.

She used to be so free and unrestrained.

Once married, their wings were clipped, and they were forbidden to fly.

Thinking about the life Luo Qingqing would lead in the future, their envy of her came to an abrupt end.

But as it turns out, they were wrong.

After getting married, Luo Qingqing didn't seem like someone with broken wings at all; on the contrary, she lived a much freer life.

She was even freer than when she was unmarried.

Many of the noblewomen in Kyoto disapproved of it.

After all, Luo Qingqing's actions were completely contrary to the education they had always received.

But what can you do if you can't stand it?

Luo Qingqing is no longer the legitimate daughter of the former deputy chief constable of the Six Doors; she is now the Regent's Consort.

They wouldn't even dare to provoke them to their faces, let alone talk about them behind their backs.

His Highness the Regent dotes on the Princess so much; what would happen if he found out she had been mistreated? No one could say for sure.

If Luo Qingqing's previous life could be described as carefree and unrestrained, then her current life can be described as lawless and unruly.

It's only because Luo Qingqing has a relatively sound moral compass; otherwise, a female demon would have inevitably emerged in Kyoto.

Another thing is that Li Changqing allowed Luo Qingqing to continue working as a constable.

Although she changed her name, who among the real powerful and influential people in Kyoto, including the top families of the Great Zhou, didn't know who Luo Qingqing was?

Even her alias was discovered.

Li Changqing gave Luo Qingqing the greatest support for her freedom and hobbies.

At this time, in everyone's eyes, Regent Li Changqing was nothing more than a doting husband.

But in reality, Li Changqing himself didn't think he was that great.

That's just how he was taught in his previous life: husband and wife are independent individuals who have an obligation to support each other.

This naturally includes helping your partner achieve their dreams.

The Regent's Palace does not need Luo Qingqing to manage household affairs or be dutiful to her parents-in-law.

Aside from spending time alone with her husband, she can naturally do whatever she likes.

After all, Li Changqing also had his own things to deal with.

Others were unaware of Li Changqing's thoughts. Even though he was the master of the World Society, the renowned Regent, and even a supreme-level expert.

Even when those top socialites were preparing to marry him, they still hesitated.

The Regent's heart is completely devoted to his wife. After they marry into the Regent's palace, will they really have a chance to rise in status?

In contrast, the Murong sisters and Consort Qi saw through the true nature of the matter long ago.

His Highness the Regent's affection for the Queen is not the so-called exclusive favor.

Rather, it's because His Highness the Regent is that kind of person; anyone who marries him will enjoy the same treatment.

He will arrange for someone to protect you, he will help you plan your career, and he will promise you the greatest possible freedom.

of course.

If you yearn for a lifelong, monogamous love, you are destined not to find it with His Highness the Regent.

Even Princess Luo Qingqing couldn't get it, let alone the others.

Not obsessed with love, and not so concerned about reputation.

In the eyes of the Murong sisters and Qi Mingfei, Li Changqing was the best man in the world, without exception.

The Wang sisters clearly didn't see through this, and the chosen partner was already somewhat resistant to the idea.

Li Changqing learned of this news on the third day after entering the Wang family.

The one who sent him the message was Yang Potian of the Beggars' Sect.

Li Changqing brought him along specifically to help him handle intelligence on the Beggars' Sect.

Yang Potian did not disappoint him and soon brought news to Li Changqing.
