Concerned for the health of the Weaving Maiden, the Queen Mother delayed the morning court session by an hour.
"Aning, although the Mortal Realm is gradually growing prosperous, it still inevitably harbors filth and corruption. Mortals are mediocre and incapable of seeing through and driving out malicious and wicked demons and evil spirits. Today, with the incident involving the Weaving Maiden, who can say there are no other evil spirits committing atrocities? Establishing Earth Immortals in the Mortal Realm has become imperative and a matter of extreme urgency. It is a pity that opinions in the court are divided, preventing such a benevolent policy from being implemented sooner. It is truly lamentable. Later in court, besides publicly punishing the Eldest Princess to serve as a warning to all the gods, I will use the harm done to the Eldest Princess to issue a decree implementing this policy. There is not a moment to lose—the sooner, the better."
Weining listened intently, her expression remaining entirely unchanged while she made her calculations in her heart.
