Mu Xi also stood up. She was neither humble nor arrogant, but cautiously said, "The Left Prime Minister is too kind. If there are matters in the court, Mu Xi is naturally willing to share the burden."

The Left Chancellor smiled and bowed to the Emperor, saying, "Your Majesty ascended the throne at a young age and has worked diligently to govern the country. Now the world is at peace. However, Your Majesty's harem is still empty. We all believe that Your Majesty should establish a harem as soon as possible to reassure the people."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xi's expression darkened. However, she tried her best to remain expressionless. "The Left Prime Minister is right, but His Majesty should decide this matter. Why should he consult me?"

The Left Chancellor continued, "That may be true, but His Majesty relies on you. It would be best if you could advise him on such an important matter. Here are portraits of the selected women presented by the officials. Please take a look, General."

The two men, carrying many scrolls, came before Mu Xi.

Mu Xi couldn't help but look at the emperor, who coughed lightly, "Xi Ai Qing, please take a look for me..."

"yes."

Mu Xi responded, appearing completely obedient.

The attendant unfolded the portraits one by one, and Mu Xi looked at them very carefully.

Cat leaned on Mu Jin's shoulder and looked up, offering her comments as well.

"This won't do, she's too thin. Don't emperors want wives who are fertile and healthy?"

"This one won't do either, she's too fat and not good-looking enough. Does this girl have connections? How did she get chosen with that kind of appearance?"

"My God, is this still a child?! The emperor is a beast! How can they consummate the marriage like this?"

"This one is even worse, he looks sickly, how many days does he have left to live?"

"How did they even choose these concubines? The emperor is so pitiful..."

Mu Xi had been keeping a straight face, but when she heard the cat complaining beside her, she almost couldn't hold back anymore!

Indeed, these women are terrible. It's not like the Five Continents are short of talent. How can she choose from these ugly and unattractive women? Not a single one is suitable.

Seeing that the portraits had been flipped to the bottom, Mu Xi was getting a little anxious.

Only one picture is left.

When the servant unfolded the document, Mu Xi paused for a moment, then his expression gradually darkened.

Cat said, "This one is good. She's good-looking and has a good temperament. She just looks a bit like Xiao Xi."
