Chapter 212: Love Beauty More Than the Country
Chapter 212: Love Beauty More Than the Country
"Jiang Xiaoyao, you reckless man, stop talking nonsense."
"Your granddaughter has seduced His Majesty into favoring only one person. If she's not a witch, what is she?"
When the civil official was scolded, he immediately retorted in dissatisfaction.
"This is your Majesty's family affair. Is it your turn as an old bald donkey to interfere?"
Jiang Xiaoyao was so angry that he jumped up and down.
"Your Majesty's family affairs are state affairs."
The civil official looked at his nose with his eyes and at his heart with his nose, and answered with righteous words.
"You old bald donkey, I heard that you have a granddaughter who has been married for many years, but you have never found a matchmaker to propose marriage."
"Have you long been looking for an opportunity to marry your granddaughter into the royal family?"
"Well, you're selling your daughter for fame and fortune, and you're stealing from your employer!"
Jiang Xiaoyao's face turned red from holding it in, and he finally managed to utter two high-sounding words.
It’s a pity that the guy named Zuo took a leave today, otherwise, who would be able to be a match for Prime Minister Zuo when it comes to talking.
"My granddaughter is coarse and ugly, that's why she has stayed here until now, not because she wants to join the royal family."
The civil official who was pointed at and scolded by Jiang Xiaoyao remained calm and spoke calmly.
"If General Xiaoyao suspects that I have some selfish motives."
"Your Majesty, when choosing a concubine, you can naturally exclude all the women in my family to show fairness."
"You..." Jiang Xiaoyao was so angry that he was speechless for a moment.
Never mind, when it comes to talking, he is no match for these old bald men.
The civil and military ministers each held their own opinions on the matter and the situation was deadlocked.
Murong Ye smiled lightly.
"Mr. Guo, are all those who are favored by their husbands evil women?"
Murong Ye took the lead in asking questions to the civil officials who had previously acted righteously and attacked Jiang Xiaoyao.
"Your Majesty, that's natural. As a wife, I should be generous and help my husband solve his problems and take in concubines."
Mr. Guo, who was named, stroked his beard and spoke righteously.
"good very good!"
Murong Ye applauded upon hearing this.
"In this case, Mr. Guo should set an example."
"I heard that you have a daughter who married into your husband's family. Although they have been childless for ten years, the couple is still in love and envied by others."
"Isn't it that your daughter is also a jealous witch? Why don't you help your daughter find concubines for her husband?"
Murong Ye smiled faintly, but the aura around him became increasingly cold and wanton.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Mr. Guo, who had been calm and composed at first, suddenly froze in his tracks, beads of sweat the size of beans dripping from his face.
He has many children and grandchildren, but he only had this daughter when he was old. He raised her up in pampered fashion. How could he be willing to see her suffer any injustice?
Later, they found a husband for her. Even though she had no children for ten years, her husband's family did not dare to say much as she was in charge.
Now that the old events had been brought up by His Majesty, Mr. Guo felt his cheeks burning and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Murong Ye's cold eyes turned slightly and fell on the other person who allowed him to take concubines.
"Mr. Li, I remember that you and your wife have been married since you were young, and have been together for decades, but you don't have a concubine in your house."
"Why? Could it be that your wife is also a witch, and a jealous woman, who has bewitched you for many years, causing you to remain chaste for her for many years?"
"In that case, why don't I issue an edict right now and grant you a few beauties? I don't think your wife would dare to say anything."
Murong Ye said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Li, who had jumped out to stop Murong Ye earlier, was shocked.
"I met my wife when we were young. My family was poor at that time, but she married me regardless of everything."
"She obviously has a better place to go, but she is willing to live a hard life with me."
"She risked her life for me. How could I let her down? How could I let her lose?"
As Mr. Li spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.
His wife is truly the best wife in the world.
"But your majesty, you are different from ordinary people like me."
"You are responsible for the people of the world and the revival of Xuanlong Country. Only if you have a large harem and a large number of offspring can we have successors to Xuanlong."
Mr. Li advised earnestly.
To be honest, Murong Ye, as an emperor, could say such words.
He admires it very much.
But admiration aside, as an emperor, Murong Ye has his responsibilities and obligations.
"Yeah yeah."
"I beg Your Majesty to recruit more concubines and expand the royal family as soon as possible."
Mr. Li's words were supported by everyone, and everyone tried to dissuade him.
Murong Ye swept the whole audience with cold eyes and pursed his lips slightly.
"In this case, I am willing to abdicate and let others take my place."
"The throne of the Xuanlong Kingdom can be filled by the nobles who nominate capable people."
"My greatest wish in this life is to protect Yuyao. Everything else comes second."
Murong Ye's expression was cold and his voice was loud and clear.
He knew that he had never been a good emperor.
"Your Majesty, no, absolutely not!"
Hearing this, the whole place was in an uproar.
Although their emperor was in office for a short time, he used his iron-blooded approach to clean up the court and punish corrupt officials.
They built factories for women, constructed roads, established schools for women, and opened orphanages.
Repair roads, repair houses...
All these incidents have long been known to the people.
He has almost become a legend in the hearts of the people.
With such a great example before him, who else could be more suitable than him to be the emperor of Xuanlong Kingdom at this time?
"Your Majesty..." Mr. Li and the others looked conflicted, and finally they could only take a step back.
However, he proposed that Jiang Yuyao give birth to a prince within one year of her marriage.
Murong Ye glanced at them coldly. He was really fed up with this group of extremely pedantic old ministers.
"I'll say it again. First, I will never take a concubine in this life, only Yuyao."
"Secondly, whether Yuyao and I will have children in the future depends on Yuyao's physical condition."
"If it harms Yuyao's health, I don't want the child!"
"Retreat!"
After Murong Ye finished speaking, he turned away, ignoring the sighs of the crowd.
This news reached Jiang's residence.
Jiang Yuyao was doing housework when her hand paused slightly and she accidentally pierced her finger.
Tiny beads of blood appeared, but Jiang Yuyao didn't notice it at all.
Tears welled up in her eyes and her face was full of worry.
……
At the same time, in the Spirit Beast Sect.
"Brother, I heard that your Puppet Sect has suffered heavy losses recently."
"I have an idea. Why don't you try to temper the puppet with mortal blood?"
In the Spirit Beast Sect's teahouse, Li Qiuyang looked at the old man in front of him with a flattering expression.
"Haha, what bad things are you planning? Although my Puppet Sect lost a lot of puppets in the previous battle with the demon tribe."
"But if I want to destroy your Spirit Beast Sect, it's just a matter of raising my hand."
The old man smiled faintly, but his expression was full of pressure.
"Mr. Cang, what are you talking about?"
"I'm thinking of you, brother."
"Think about it, the puppets of your Puppet Sect are all made of natural materials and treasures into human form, which costs a huge amount of money."
"Why don't you try to transform your mortal body into a puppet? Who knows, maybe you can open up a new path from now on?"
Li Qiuyang continued to seduce.
