…………
Are you ready?
The system asked a seemingly perfunctory question.
The emperor in this world who needs to be conquered is a wise ruler, with extremely high skills to firmly control the court.
In addition, he lived a long life and loved beautiful women, so he had many favorite concubines in his life. He loved ladies from noble families, girls from humble backgrounds, and even wildflowers by the roadside.
Therefore, it is very difficult to become the emperor's unique one, but having a favorability rating of over 50 points is not too exaggerated.
"No problem," Ling Xiao nodded.
Okay, then you can choose a character.
Expand the panel; to win someone's heart, you'll naturally need an identity.
Creating an identity out of thin air is not impossible, but it would cost too much. In short, Ling Xiao is not worthy of it.
For a newly established team, saving money is everything.
Therefore, the only options available are those that already existed in that world, and the few free identities are quite undesirable.
A palace maid who empties chamber pots at night, a beautiful courtesan who has faded from the limelight, a middle-aged female cook skilled in cooking...
Seeing Ling Xiao grow increasingly silent, he felt somewhat smug. These identities were terrible, but without comparison, how could the merits of the other identities be highlighted?
For example, noble ladies, princesses from foreign lands, childhood sweethearts—these identities offer an advantage from the start, aren't they tempting?
Go ahead and take out a loan to spend it.
Clearing its throat, it prepared to promote the loan project with an 8% commission, but it was only because it thought Ling Xiao had potential and was taking it easy.
"I choose this one, the illegitimate daughter of a fifth-rank official."
Ling Xiao's finger landed on one of the identities, and she settled the matter with a casual remark.
Are you sure?
His gaze is strange, and this identity is free. It looks alright, but it's actually extremely bad.
Because she was only eight years old when she appeared on screen!
Eight years old!
No matter how desperate an emperor is, he wouldn't lay a hand on an eight-year-old girl!
Moreover, this concubine's stepmother was no ordinary woman either; her family was powerful, yet she only had one daughter.
She caused her husband's harem to be filled with beauties, including nine concubine daughters. This concubine daughter was the sixth in line, her birth mother died early, and she was a nobody who was not favored.
Despite repeated attempts to persuade him, Ling Xiao simply wouldn't listen.
It ignored him, and he sneered inwardly.
"You idiot, you can't reason with this damn fool. Save your breath now, but when you're desperate and need to buy supplies, the loan program will change."
Just as the transfer was about to begin, Ling Xiao casually asked, "Is there a time limit for this task?"
"There's no time limit for beginner quests; developing a relationship over time is also a viable option, isn't it?"
That's good
A sudden sense of foreboding washed over him, and he asked, "What's wrong?"
Ling Xiao, dressed in a green robe and skirt, smiled happily but said nothing.
The next second
I'll fuck your grandpa Ling Xiao.
A scream echoed through the time tunnel. Passing mission participants picked at their ears and looked around in confusion.
Its skin was about to burst open, and it struggled desperately, not only afraid of the unknown future, but also terrified of death right now.
A pair of hands that would impress anyone who saw it held it firmly in place, and its delicate skin looked to it like the skin of a venomous snake.
These hands, just now, stretched out like snakes and grabbed me!
In the seventh year of the Jingtai reign of the Great Jin Dynasty, Emperor Li Yue ascended the throne at a young age. He had always been ambitious and went through many hardships to eliminate treacherous officials and quell local rebellions.
Today is his most triumphant day. The once invincible barbarian tribes beyond the Great Wall have finally been defeated by him, and their power has declined.
Such martial arts skills are enough to ensure that Li Yue leaves a mark in history, and he will never fall into the ranks of a foolish, mediocre, and incompetent ruler.
The emperor was in Empress Wen's palace, and the two were very intimate, whispering to each other from time to time.
"Zitong, what do you think of my outfit? Doesn't it make me look dashing and naturally dignified?"
In front of his beloved wife, the emperor smiled and twirled around, his brows and eyes relaxed.
Lady Wen covered her mouth and chuckled softly, considerately straightening his sleeves, "Your Majesty needs no clothes to enhance your presence; you are already the most dignified person in the world."
As they spoke, Li Yue suddenly moved closer to his wife and gently leaned on her shoulder. "I am truly delighted. The barbarians have been a major threat to our dynasty, and there was that incident at the founding of the nation. Do you think our ancestors would be pleased to know of my achievements?"
Of course!
Wen's gentle reply.
A moment later, someone outside the hall urged them on. Empress Wen gently nudged the emperor, "Your Majesty, it's time to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony."
The merit of pacifying the barbarians should naturally be reported to the ancestors and rewarded to the people. The Taihe Hall is the place of worship in the palace. The imperial relatives are waiting for the emperor. Later, there will be a grand banquet attended by the imperial relatives and ministers.
The emperor raised his head, straightened his clothes, and said with great interest, "Zitong, wait for me to return from the ancestral worship ceremony. There will also be a dance performed by the Khan at today's banquet."
After saying that, he strode away.
Lady Wen couldn't stop laughing, while a head palace maid teased, "His Majesty and the Empress are such a perfect couple, it's truly enviable."
Another palace maid chimed in, "Exactly! Those other cats and dogs only dare to act up because they've gained the master's temporary favor. Bah!"
These words were pointed, but they shouldn't have been uttered by a virtuous and wise palace maid like the Empress.
Before Wen could get angry, someone tried to smooth things over.
Even so, Lady Wen's mood was no longer what it used to be. Yes, His Majesty and she were in perfect harmony, and there was no shortage of other beautiful women around.
Currently, the palace has four imperial concubines, twelve concubines, and thirty-six imperial wives. While not all of them are present, the number is quite considerable.
The emperor loved beautiful women, and he loved them all! He could appreciate all kinds of beauty.
Arriving in the world of Great Jin.
Ling Xiao, gripping the struggling system, smiled and whispered:
"The competition for the most favored concubine is too fierce; of course, we need to steer things towards areas where we're good at it."
Under the sunlight, the pitch-black shadow suddenly trembled!
