The Old Mu family, who were so poor they jingled, went crazy. It was a time of famine, and everyone was rushing to flee, yet they went out of their way to pick up a little girl.
Ning Bao carr...
Chapter 563 Auspicious Days
Ning Bao shook her head.
"Wearing women's clothes is too cumbersome and inconvenient to move around in."
"Wearing a more tailored outfit makes you look more presentable, Brother Muyang. Shall we go now?"
"Okay, let's go."
In fact, Ning Bao could have entered the palace smoothly on her own, but Zhou Chengxing and Shen Muyang were still worried.
Although Shen Muyang hadn't had a proper rest these past few days, upon hearing the Emperor say that someone was to bring Ningbao to the palace, he immediately took on the task.
..............................
When Ning Bao and Shen Muyang arrived, Bai Ming was also there.
Zhao Junyue was dealing with the mountain of memorials piled on his desk, while Bai Ming casually flipped through some portraits of women.
"Tsk! Tsk! This painting is amazing. I remember I went to the Zhang family for a consultation. The eldest daughter of the Zhang family had a face full of pockmarks and dark skin."
However, this portrait cleverly avoided highlighting Miss Zhang's flaws.
However, this one is quite good-looking, with fair skin, a beautiful face, and a slender waist...
Zhao Junyue, who was busy and overwhelmed, rolled his eyes at Bai Ming.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you!"
Bai Ming quickly waved his hand.
No! No!
I don't want to!
My wife is very jealous, so I would never dare to take any concubines or maids. One wife is enough.
Sigh! You haven't even officially ascended the throne yet, and those ministers are already sending you daughters.
Once you ascend the throne, you'll be marrying a hundred or so women. Should I prescribe you some nourishing soup to help you recover?
Otherwise, with so many women in your harem, they'll drain you dry sooner or later.
I'll say something very disrespectful, and you can see if it makes sense...
Bai Ming looked around and lowered his voice to continue.
"Too much sexual activity can lead to an early death. Your Majesty can investigate whether emperors who are obsessed with the harem have long lifespans. There is scientific evidence to support this."
But don't worry, as long as you take my all-around tonic pill, I guarantee you'll be in great shape and sleep soundly in your new house every night...
Zhao Junyue frowned.
"Brother Bai, sit down and have some water. I have no intention of building a harem, so you don't need to go through the trouble of preparing a complete tonic."
These ministers were indeed getting anxious. The old emperor was about to pass away, and they were still urging the selection of concubines every day…
"A selection of concubines? The Emperor hasn't even married his fiancée yet, and he's already planning to take concubines?"
Ning Bao walked in side by side with Shen Muyang, her little face stern. When she reached the center of the room, Ning Bao pretended to bow, but Zhao Junyue raised his hand to stop her.
"Alright, there are no outsiders here, so we don't need to follow so many rules."
I had no intention of holding a talent show; those portraits of women were all sent over by the ministers in the court.
"It really wasn't my intention. Ningbao, please don't tell Yuting, I'm afraid she'll overthink it."
Ning Bao sighed silently. She had previously thought that Zhao Junyue and Su Yuting were a match made in heaven.
However, they will have to go through a lot together, and the outcome depends entirely on Zhao Junyue's decision.
Su Yuting is a good girl, but now that Zhao Junyue has become the emperor, Su Yuting will face many challenges in the future.
I hope she can overcome this danger and live a wonderful life of her own.
