Li Yuzhen shook her head helplessly as she watched her leave.
Her Highness is too reserved. This is the Jade Scenery Dynasty, not the Phoenix Dynasty. What's wrong with meeting him?
In the end, isn't she just shy?
Compared to the actions of other princesses, Her Highness is too cold and conservative.

Her gaze then fell on the sword-dancing women, as if she was pondering something.
The women were light and graceful, their sword postures elegant and agile, like celestial fairies descending to the mortal world.
The wine patrons in Qionghua Tower cheered and were infatuated and intoxicated.
Li Yuzhen's expression slowly became serious.
This sword technique is extraordinary. The swordplay seems simple, but they have grasped its essence.
It is indeed worth investigating carefully.
At noon, Chu Zhiyuan and Chu Honglin still came to Qingfeng Cliff, basking in the bright sunshine.
"Imperial Brother didn't agree," Chu Honglin shook his head: "In the end, demonic arts and demonic sects must be banned."
Chu Zhiyuan frowned: "The disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect are going to have their cultivation crippled?"
"For the time being, we won't touch them, we'll use them as bait to lure out other demonic sects, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop."
"Aren't you afraid of losing control?"
"Imperial Brother doesn't think they can lose control. Anyway, the imperial city no longer has the Great Heavenly Demon, so there's nothing to fear."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "The power of the demonic sects doesn't completely lie in the Great Heavenly Demon."
He continued: "The threshold for demonic arts is low, and progress is fast, but it's easy to get stuck in the Transformation Intent Realm and difficult to break through. But for many people, being able to evolve Intent Realm is already rare and satisfying."
"Imperial Brother certainly understands these things," Chu Honglin said.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Fifteenth Uncle, I don't think Father truly understands."
Chu Honglin frowned and looked at him: "Imperial Brother is wise and martial, how could he not understand?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Precisely because Father is like this, he cannot understand the despair and excitement of those with weak aptitudes."
"Hmm—" Chu Honglin pondered.
That's true, without experiencing it personally, it's impossible to truly empathize.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Father cannot truly understand their desire for cultivation, their emphasis on demonic arts, and the depth of their feelings for the demonic sects."
He snorted and said: "In their eyes, the demonic sects are the real prestigious sects, while the imperial court and the major sects prioritize interests and abandon emotions, they are complete villains."
Chu Honglin chuckled.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "They are sincere in their cultivation and treat their fellow disciples with sincerity. They are not as utilitarian and hypocritical as the prestigious sects."
"Absurd!" Chu Honglin snorted.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "They act extremely and are easily impulsive, so they are easily moved by emotions. When they look at the people of the imperial court and the major sects, they feel that everyone is cold and ruthless."
Chu Honglin frowned and said: "Nonsense!"
Chu Zhiyuan sighed and shook his head: "This is what the disciples of the demonic sects think. I didn't understand it at first.
Chu Honglin frowned and said: "Are they still going to cause trouble?"
"If it's just them, that's fine. I'm afraid that generations of accumulated resentment will erupt in some powerful geniuses, which will be extremely detrimental to the dynasty."
"What's more, there are probably far more people practicing demonic arts than imagined."
He had an idea, and after observing, he found that almost everywhere there were people practicing demonic arts.
Those who cannot practice orthodox cultivation methods, cannot enter sects, cannot join martial arts schools, and do not have family martial arts, are more numerous than imagined.
Those with family martial arts have long been mixed into the middle level and entered sects and martial arts schools, and can also step into the middle and upper levels.
Those in the lower levels are the largest base number, and their only hope is demonic arts.
If they are deprived of their path to cultivation, how can they not be filled with resentment?
If generations of resentment accumulate, it will inevitably shake the foundation of the dynasty.
Chu Honglin's expression was solemn.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Father doesn't understand these things, does he? I'm afraid he disdains to understand, and only focuses on the four major sects and the officials of the imperial court."
"..." "I will mention it to Imperial Brother," Chu Honglin said with a solemn expression: "If it's really that serious, then it's really troublesome."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Look at the Phoenix Dynasty, see how they handled it. They established their dynasty earlier and have more experience."
"Mm," Chu Honglin nodded: "Another blessed land is about to open, and you still have to go in."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Fifteenth Uncle, if I leave the imperial city, what will happen to the blessed land?"
Chu Honglin shook his head helplessly: "The Directorate of Astronomy must have a way."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then find the Directorate of Astronomy, why find me?"
"The Directorate of Astronomy doesn't have anyone below the Transformation Spirit Realm," Chu Honglin said: "It's also very dangerous to go in."
If the experts of the Directorate of Astronomy want to enter the blessed land, they need to use strange techniques to seal their cultivation in order to avoid leaking the aura of a Venerable.
Returning to the Transformation Intent Realm, being extremely unaccustomed to it, it is easy to fall into the hands of the demons.
Under the same realm, the demon experts often have the upper hand. If they also have soul beads to contact each other and attack together, it will be even more troublesome.
And Chu Zhiyuan possesses the Great Demon Subduing Seal and is good at subduing demons, so he is naturally the best candidate.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "I hope the Directorate of Astronomy doesn't make any mistakes after I leave."
Chu Honglin said helplessly: "Regarding the matter of you not going to the Phoenix Dynasty, Imperial Brother is already annoyed by me, and he won't let me say anything about it."
He had repeatedly advised to build a substitute for Chu Zhiyuan and let the substitute go to the Phoenix Dynasty.
As a result, he couldn't persuade him at all.
Now, as soon as he mentions this, the emperor will lower his face and drive him away.
After being driven away twice after mentioning it twice, he could only give up.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then don't persuade him. I know Father's temperament. The more you persuade him, the more firm he will be. If he originally had the idea of changing, he won't change it after being persuaded."
"Alas—" Chu Honglin was extremely regretful.
The day of the wedding is getting closer and closer, and he is becoming more and more reluctant to part with Chu Zhiyuan.
In the evening, when Chu Zhiyuan returned to the small courtyard of the Prince's Mansion for dinner, Li Yuzhen came.
"Consort, I have already found out their origins."
"Which sect are they from?"
Chu Zhiyuan raised his jasper cup and took a sip of the fine wine, and asked lightly.
"The Azure Bamboo Sect, a small sect, they do practice demonic arts."
"Azure Bamboo Sect—do you know the situation of the demonic sects near the imperial city?"
"There are countless demonic sects near the imperial city," Li Yuzhen said: "Large sects and small sects, even three or five people can form a sect or a school. There is only one type of demonic art they practice, and that is the Supreme Heavenly Demon Strategy."
Chu Zhiyuan frowned.
"Based on the Supreme Heavenly Demon Strategy, combined with various martial arts, each forms a sect or a school, which is chaotic."
?
"Are there any top demonic sects?"
"The Flying Cloud Sect is considered the top one, and there is also the Remnant Sun Sect, which is also considered top. The other demonic sects are really not worth mentioning."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.
"Consort, Her Highness said that the Tender Dynasty also banned demonic sects, but later ignored them, because the disadvantages of banning them were greater."
"I can see that," Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.
Now it depends on whether my words work and whether I can get the emperor to change his mind.
