Good's words were clear enough. When it came to choosing a concubine, he was not like the other ministers, who hoped for more women in the harem. To Good, Mingyue Cheng's lack of interest in women was a good thing. There were many examples of countries being destroyed because of their greed for beauty. If Mingyue Cheng could meet someone he liked and live with her, it would be a happy thing for an emperor who had lost his mother and father at a young age. He had been taken hostage by an enemy country at a young age.
Although he knew that it was impossible for an emperor to spend his life with only one person, as Mingyue Cheng's elder, Good still hoped that this lonely emperor could find happiness.
After saying this, Goode bowed respectfully and slowly retreated out of the room.
Seeing Good's not-so-tall figure disappear through the door, Mingyue Cheng's ears kept ringing with Good's last words. So, there was still someone who truly cared about him! No matter how much Good's actions went against his will, Good's intentions were good! If there was someone who truly treated you well in this world, you should cherish it. Otherwise, it would be too late to regret it if you lost it. This was what his mother, Miao Chuyun, had once said.
"Fuller, the palace is about to get lively." Leaning back on the throne, Mingyue Cheng could not describe his feelings at the moment. Feng Qiqi's face appeared in his mind. Her smile and frown were both nostalgic.
"Your Majesty, if you don't like her, you can just marry her and give her a title. Just leave her there!"
Fuller's heart ached for Mingyue Cheng, but he knew that if Mingyue Cheng did not choose a concubine, the country would be in turmoil. The continuation of the dynasty required a bloodline. If Mingyue Cheng persisted, there would not only be criticism in the court, but also among the people. This was the "grievance" that came with being an emperor and not being able to do as he pleased.
"Hehe …" Mingyue Cheng chuckled. "Fuller, aren't you delaying the lady?"
"Your Majesty, it's a blessing to be able to serve you." Fuller walked up and poured tea for Mingyue Cheng. "Your Majesty, you should think about yourself. Since that dream can't become a reality, you have to think about the country and the heir. "
The "dream" that Fuller was referring to was Feng Qiqi. How could Mingyue Cheng not know that Fuller was indirectly persuading him to open up? But was it really that simple to open up?
It didn't take long for the news of Mingyue Cheng's consort selection to spread. Those commoners who were worried that the harem would be empty were relieved. The entire capital became lively because of Mingyue Cheng's concubine selection.
The families of the beauties who were waiting to be selected tried their best to dress them up, hoping that their daughters could fly up the branches and turn into phoenixes. Although Mingyue Cheng was the new emperor, he had carried out drastic reforms after ascending the throne and conquered Xi Qi in a short period of time. In the eyes of the people, Mingyue Cheng had become the incarnation of a hero.
Heroes naturally had to be paired with beauties. These beauties had long heard of Ming Yue Cheng's "great achievements", and had also heard of how this young Emperor was unrestrained and unrestrained. Naturally, they wanted to marry him and become his woman.
All of a sudden, the prices of jewelry, clothes, and cosmetics in the capital doubled. The ones who benefited the most this time were Feng Qiqi's Treasure Vault and Supreme Beauty Store.
Because this was Mingyue Cheng's first consort selection, most of the beauties were from the royal families. Naturally, the daughters of the royal families were rich. In order to be selected, the officials would spend a lot of money on their daughters. Therefore, the Treasure Vault and Supreme Beauty Store became the top choices.
"Mingyue Cheng is choosing a concubine?"
Feng Qiqi was shocked when she heard the news. She wasn't the only one. Even Gu Yunwan was surprised. Gu Yunwan had some understanding of Mingyue Cheng's personality. He was a stubborn person who couldn't be pulled back. Previously, when Good forced him to choose a concubine, he simply gave up on politics and 'fled' to Beizhou. Why did he agree to the consort selection so easily? It was too strange!
While Gu Yunwan was thinking about the change in Mingyue Cheng, she was also secretly sizing up Feng Qiqi, trying to figure out something from her expression.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yunwan was very disappointed in the final result. Feng Qiqi didn't show any disappointment or jealousy toward Mingyue Cheng's concubine selection. It seemed that Feng Qiqi only treated Mingyue Cheng as a friend. Mingyue Cheng's efforts had been hard on her.
When Feng Qiqi learned that Mingyue Cheng was choosing a concubine, she was happy for him. While she was happy, Feng Qiqi was also a little worried. With Mingyue Cheng's position, it was still unknown whether he could find a woman he liked. She wondered if Mingyue Cheng had experienced the loneliness of being at the top.
However, Feng Qiqi couldn't do anything about it. She could only hope that Mingyue Cheng would be happy! In the following days, Feng Qiqi spent her time designing jewelry for Mingyue Cheng as a wedding gift.
It was Gu Yunwan's first time seeing Feng Qiqi designing a gift. When she saw the beautiful jewelry on the blueprint, Gu Yunwan couldn't help but exclaim, "Qiqi, your jewelry is so beautiful! It's comparable to the jewelry in the Treasure Vault! "
Hearing Gu Yunwan's words, Su Mei giggled. "Miss Wan, you still don't know? The Treasure Vault belongs to our young mistress! "
"What?!" This time, it was Gu Yunwan's turn to be shocked. Her eyes widened, and her mouth formed an 'O' shape. Her eyes were filled with admiration. "So, so you're the famous Guang Hua Childe? Oh my god! Guang Hua Childe is a woman? I didn't expect this at all! I thought that Mingyue Cheng was lying to me when he told me about it! I didn't expect it to be true! "
Although Gu Yunwan had a strong personality, no matter how strong a girl was, they all had the heart of a beautiful woman. Gu Yunwan was no exception. In this world, there was probably no woman who could resist the temptation of the House of Supreme Beauties and the Treasure Vault.
At this moment, the way Gu Yunwan looked at Feng Qiqi was very different. Other than surprise and admiration, there was also a kind of regret that they hadn't met earlier!
"Qiqi, you're really a perfect person! I finally understand why everyone loves you! " Gu Yunwan sighed from the bottom of her heart. She didn't expect that Feng Cang would hear her. "Who loves my Qingqing?"
Hearing the jealousy in Feng Cang's words, Gu Yunwan stuck out her tongue and quickly left. Su Mei also left with a smile, leaving Feng Cang and Feng Qiqi behind.
"Qingqing, what were you talking about? Who loves you? "
