Let them offer their loyalty!

So, as soon as the news broke, all major Sanctuaries and factions were somewhat shocked.

Normally, the major Sanctuaries are not particularly interested in the imperial system.

After all, to some extent, it's a regressive step for civilization.

But given this is the Era of Disaster, no one knows which path is truly correct.

Back then, King Kang emerged like a comet out of nowhere, and no one knows whether his path would succeed. So, regarding the political system of the Sixth Sanctuary, everyone turns a blind eye, waiting to see what happens next.

But who would have thought, King Kang fell ill, and the expansion of the Sixth Sanctuary came to an abrupt halt.

Without the capability to strongly lead the Sixth Sanctuary, the monarchy, to some extent, is no longer suitable for this era.

This is also why, upon learning that the Kou family plans to change the governance of the Sixth Sanctuary to a "constitutional monarchy," the major Sanctuaries chose to turn a blind eye.

But now, Princess Xi tore her mask off and showed up alone at the Sixth Sanctuary, then planned to cleanse the court.

This kind of bravery and decisiveness moved them and also shocked them.

Amidst the shock, the leaders are all speculating about Princess Xi's motives.

"Ambition. It's Princess Xi's ambition...."

In the evening, Qiu Tu arrived as promised at Tang Feifei's home.

And as the most explosive news today, it was inevitable for them to talk about the Sixth Sanctuary and Princess Xi.

When Tang Feifei asked why Princess Xi wouldn't accept a "constitutional monarchy" but instead was ready to bet on that one percent success rate....

Qiu Tu gave his own answer: ambition.

"Although I haven't interacted much with Princess Xi."

"But upon careful analysis, the biggest core difference between a 'dual monarchic system' and a 'constitutional monarchy' is actually the size of the monarch's power."

"And Princess Xi's rejection of the 'constitutional monarchy' clearly indicates that she doesn't like it."

"She doesn't want her son to be a puppet emperor but aims to hold real power!"

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, a few traces of contemplation appeared on Tang Feifei's wheat-colored face.

After a moment, she spoke coldly, "Don't you think there's something off about Princess Xi?"

Qiu Tu tilted his head and looked at Tang Feifei, "What's off about her?"

Tang Feifei said with a blank expression, "Her ambition seems unusually large."

"If you say she's doing it for her son, she shouldn't reveal her motive so early, and respond so aggressively against the Kou family."

"After all... from anyone's perspective, a 'constitutional monarchy' preserves their greatest interests."

"And her son is only a year and a half old, the immediate priority should be to live safely, not to seize power."

"As long as they can live safely, everything can be planned in the long term."

Pausing for a bit, Tang Feifei continued, "And now, after seizing the highest power of the Sixth Sanctuary, the only one who would benefit would be Princess Xi."

Qiu Tu nodded slightly, revealing a hint of deep thought on his face.

In fact, when Princess Xi called him today, he already sensed something odd about her.

That oddness wasn't discovering any of her doubts but feeling like Princess Xi had realized something and was thoroughly relieved.

It's just that time was too tight, and Princess Xi was clearly unwilling to talk much, so Qiu Tu didn't investigate further.

Now, adding Tang Feifei's analysis, Qiu Tu's feeling became even clearer.

'Hmm... why does Princess Xi feel like she's turned to the dark side?'

'Will the Sixth Sanctuary truly go through an upheaval?'

Touching his chin, Qiu Tu contemplated matters regarding the Sixth Sanctuary and Princess Xi, and was also searching for a suitable point to enter the power struggle....
