Mu Zhuochen just didn't expect...
After leaving the palace, Mu Zhuochen remembered the Wan Ge talent show.
Looking at the list his subordinates had given him and the identities of each woman, his face instantly darkened: "Absurd! Is this all the Ministry of Revenue has selected?"
I gave him so much time to prepare, and all he submitted was this list?
Yes, most of them were quite good-looking, but they were either from humble backgrounds or were illegitimate daughters. Although the founding emperor no longer cared about these things and decreed that daughters of high-ranking officials or commoners could enter the palace for the imperial concubine selection.
But there wasn't a single lady of high social standing among them, not a single daughter of a noble family. Wasn't this blatant disrespect for His Majesty? This was an insult to His Majesty! An insult to him as well!
How could he allow others to bully the person he protects and cherishes so dearly?
Mu Zhuochen slammed the roster down and said to his subordinates, "Give those people a hint. I don't want to see these people in the palace."
"Yes!" The person beside Mu Zhuochen quickly accepted the order.
Mu Zhuochen glanced down at the list he had thrown on the ground. Even if there was no possibility between him and Mu Zhuochen, he would never allow others to use such women to appease him.
His Majesty naturally wants the best. If those people still don't change, then they really shouldn't blame him for being impolite.
…
As expected, Mu Zhuochen's subordinates completed the task quickly. By the time they entered the palace, they were already from a prominent family of generals and ministers, and the legitimate daughter of a noble family.
However, unlike in the past, these young ladies were all desperately thinking to themselves, "I must not be chosen!"
After those people entered the palace, Wan Ge thought she should find an opportunity to observe them and maybe find the woman she wanted.
Wan Ge never expected that Mu Zhuochen would put pressure on them to let these noble ladies enter the palace! She originally thought that they should be from humble families or have simple and ordinary identities, preferably those who were after money, so that she could find suitable candidates to act with her in the future.
But unexpectedly, the group of people entering the palace now are all of higher and higher status, and even the nannies who teach them are a little reserved because of their status.
…
Wan Ge leaned over the wall, watching the increasingly beautiful girls. These girls were all in the prime of their youth, each more beautiful than the last. If she were a man, she might actually be attracted to them. What a pity.
"What is Your Majesty doing?"
A familiar voice rang in her ears, and the singer instinctively relaxed, falling down instantly, but instead of hitting the ground, she landed in someone's arms.
Mu Zhuochen held Wan Ge in his arms; his little emperor smelled so good and was so soft.
Wan Ge quickly got off the ground and pushed him away: "Has the...Royal Uncle not returned yet?"
"I was planning to leave, but I suddenly remembered that there were some things I hadn't finished taking care of, so I turned back." He returned to the Imperial Study but didn't see the young emperor, who had clearly promised him that he would read the memorials carefully.
Only after questioning the bodyguard who was with Wan Ge did they learn the whole story.
"So what is Your Majesty doing?" Mu Zhuochen narrowed his eyes slightly. He had clearly said that he should not care, but he still couldn't help but feel angry.
Wan Ge cleared his throat and said, "I...I just heard that the imperial concubines have entered the palace. I'm curious, haha, I'm curious."
