Chapter 1135: The Return of an Old Friend (43)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There had never been an empress who was unconscious in history.

Emperor Xiao Jing seemed to be deliberately teasing him and said, “So what if I insist?”

The official who spoke was an old official. When Emperor Yong Le was alive, he was very respectful to this official, so this official seemed to be extremely fearless. He said, “Could it be that Your Majesty wants to keep the empress’s throne empty for her?”

The officials were in an uproar.

As long as the empress throne was kept for Shen Miao, no matter how many consorts there were in the harem, they would be lower in status than Shen Miao, and their sons would never surpass Chu Yi and Shi Wu.

Emperor Xiao Jing chuckled, causing the officials to feel uneasy.

The emperor said, “There is and will only be one woman in my harem. The throne is hers to take no matter when she wakes up.” Everyone was shocked!

“Your Majesty…” The old official wanted to say something.

“Lord Xu, I remember that you have two granddaughters who are in their prime,” Emperor Xiao Jing said.

That official was stunned for a moment, but at the same time, he was secretly delighted. He thought that his granddaughters had a chance of entering the harem. However, in the next moment, the joy disappeared. The emperor said, “How about I betroth her to Young General Song?”

That Young General Song was young and promising. Unfortunately, he was blind in one eye on the battlefield and would not go very far in his career.

Lord Xu immediately turned ashen.

“I’m not here to listen to your opinions, nor am I here to listen to you reprimand me. I’m just letting you know.” He sat on the throne and looked down at the officials. “I’m the emperor and the ruler. If you have any objections to the wav I handle state affairs, feel free to voice them. However, if vou want to interfere in my private matters, I will definitely…” He thought for a moment and said, “give you a surprise.”

He smiled mischievously. In an instant, he returned to the handsome young man who rode through the streets and alleys of Ming Qi on horseback.

“If you don’t believe it, feel free to give it a try,” he said with a faint smile.

He really did not look like an emperor. He was not serious enough, and he was not meticulous enough, but he looked even more dangerous than the emperors in the past. He was not inferior to Emperor Yong Le. The more indifferent his attitude, the more nervous people were. Everyone knew that if they were targeted by him, they would not die not knowing how. Most importantly, he completely disregarded etiquette and reputation and was not afraid of anything.

Everyone decided to let Emperor Xiao Jing do whatever he wanted. Perhaps sooner or later, he would get tired of having only one woman or be infatuated with new beauties.

At the thought of this, the officials did not say anything else. Some bootlickers even said that Emperor Xiao Jing and Shen Miao were fated to be together..
