At night, in the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
"It's time to flip the cards again!"
Looking at the exquisite signs in front of him, Zhu Houzhao could not help but feel a little emotional.
As Emperor Ming, even though he had thousands of miles of land, he might not be able to do everything as he wished.
For example, these beautiful women were not simple. Even with Zhu Houzhao's ability, it was not easy to completely control his heart.
Especially at this stage, whoever they chose, to a large extent, represented Da Ming's attitude towards the forces behind him.
"Your Majesty, this is the second option!”
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao had not made a choice, the old eunuch waved his hand. Immediately, someone brought the second plate to Zhu Houzhao.
Li Shishi, who represented the Song royal family;
Zhao Pan 'er, who was arranged by Cai Jing, Minister Song;
Murong Shu's younger sister, Murong Xian;
They came from the Great Han Dynasty and represented Sun Jian's faction.
Zhu Houzhao revealed a smile of understanding.
Sun Jian's actions were not surprising. After all, Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao's honey trap had achieved good results on the surface.
Even though the Great Han Empire was in turmoil, these two factions could still obtain an endless supply of resources from the Great Ming Empire.
Although the price was several times higher than usual, for the current burly man, being able to buy it was already much better than other families.
After all, even though the Great Han Empire had a rich foundation, there were very few areas where they could produce safely under the tyranny of Dong Zhuo and the 18 dukes.
In particular, millions of adult men had been forcibly conscripted, causing even areas that were temporarily unaffected by the war to be in dire need of labor. Large amounts of fertile farmland had been abandoned, and bandits were doing evil everywhere. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a scene of devastation.
It was said that Cao Cao, in order to gather the funds to buy grain from the Great Ming Dynasty, had gone crazy to the point of forming a team of gold-looting officers and began to have wicked ideas about the dead.
According to Huang Rong, the actuary of Great Ming Dynasty, after the civil war of Great Han Dynasty started, just two months of trade between Han and Ming Dynasty was enough to increase the income of Great Ming's national treasury by 30% this year!
In addition, this Song Country's Prime Minister Cai Jing's handwriting was worth pondering.
Although this guy had a terrible reputation in history, he was able to hold the position of prime minister for the longest time in the Song Dynasty and had the highest power. His methods were not something that ordinary people could compare to.
Moreover, Zhao Pan 'er was indeed a beautiful woman.
Zhu Houzhao once again scanned through the dazzling array of cards and chose one.
......
In Chuxiu Palace,
The dozen or so beauties were all dressed up, but their attitudes were much more respectful than before. Even the proud and aloof Lady Yan was quietly waiting in her seat, no longer provoking them.
After all, although Emperor Ming Zhu Houzhao was still muddle-headed and did not go to court all day,
However, the strength that Da Ming had accumulated for thousands of years had still been displayed in a few incidents. It was more than enough to deal with her, a Great Grandmaster who had just broken through.
As for Zhao Min, who had always been quite confident, due to the current tense relationship between Mingyuan and the mysterious disappearance of many reinforcements in Ming Dynasty, she was also pretending to be obedient and low-key at this moment. She wished that she could completely disappear from the eyes of others.
"I wonder which sister is lucky enough to be chosen by His Majesty today to become one of the female masters of this harem!”
Zhang Chunhua smiled sweetly.
At this moment, because her family had been brought back from the Great Han Dynasty by Emperor Ming's edict, her worries for many days had been dispelled. She was undoubtedly the most relaxed among them, and she was also the most grateful to Zhu Houzhao.
"We don't dare to guess His Majesty's thoughts!”
"However, from all aspects, Sister Yan and Tian Yan are undoubtedly the most outstanding, so the chances are the highest!”
"As for my younger sister's willowy appearance, I dare not ask for Your Majesty's favor!"”
Concubine Yan snorted.
Although Tian Yan's attitude was still as respectful as before, he had gone from an assistant to a direct competitor. Even Lady Yan herself didn't want to believe that their relationship could be restored.
However, the anti-Qin forces in the City of Traps had been surrounded recently, and the Yin-Yang School and the Network had been working closely together for the time being. That was why Concubine Yan did not attack Tian Yan at this time.
Moreover, taking down Zhu Houzhao and seizing the Imperial Jade Seal's fate was Concubine Yan's top priority!
"Sister Huanhuan is too humble. In my opinion, you and Sister Murong are the most likely to win His Majesty's favor!”
Tian Yan, who was wearing a blue and yellow palace dress and had a soft and weak aura, smiled lightly.
"Fox, you really know how to pretend!"
Murong Shu and the others cursed in their hearts.
This kind of woman, who looked harmless on the surface but was actually scheming and extremely beautiful, was naturally suitable to enter the harem. She was undoubtedly a person that everyone needed to be wary of.
Didn't he see that even the strongest Concubine Yan had been tricked by this person and still hadn't gotten back at him?
Even Huanhuan was no exception.
Although she was not less confident than others, at this critical moment, the declining national strength of Great Sui had seriously reduced the attractiveness of her to Emperor Ming.
Especially the news that Jin Bingyun had defeated Pang Ban, a quasi-Heaven Tier elite, after becoming possessed, made Chenchen extremely uneasy.
Although the successor of Kind Boathouse had already broken off relations with his sect, with Jingzhai's bewitching methods, who knew if they would get together again one day?
? In addition, Shi Feixuan had appeared in Great Ming recently. According to Chenchen's intuition, this old rival was definitely here for Emperor Ming!
If Shi Feixuan really saw Emperor Ming and exposed his background, then the chances would be slim!
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded from outside the hall.
All the women looked over at the same time, their eyes filled with anticipation.
After all, although Emperor Ming had promised to give everyone a chance, the time difference between each turn was still too big.
According to his experience, Wu Zhao, the first person chosen, had become the empress. The second person, Huang Rong, had been conferred the title of imperial consort. The third person today was most likely to be conferred the title of imperial consort.
Not only did this mean a difference in status, but it also meant that they could get Zhu Houzhao's favor before anyone else and fight for the benefits that Wu Zhao and Huang Rong had already obtained.
Especially the luck of the Imperial Jade Seal. Just by guessing, he knew that it was definitely not endless. If the order was late, he would really not be able to drink the soup.
In all fairness, although Emperor Ming's reputation as an emperor wasn't very good, as a husband, he was already quite good.
At the very least, the few times they had seen Wu Zhao and Huang Rong, not only were their looks and manners better than before, but the sweet smiles on their faces were also from the bottom of their hearts.
Zhu Houzhao was the only one among the countless emperors who had given up power.
Even Concubine Yan and Chenchen were secretly sighing. If they didn't have so many missions and sisters, it would be very exciting to have such a husband.
