The emperor also wanted a purer relationship. He didn't want to deal with all kinds of women with ulterior motives every day, but the women who could be sent to him were from all families and ethnic groups.

No matter who he chooses, he will be the next imperial concubine, Defei and others, he doesn't want to face it anymore!

Moreover, the draft is a waste of money and money!

Therefore, he took this opportunity to cancel this year's draft.

...

When the emperor said this, the first person to object was Concubine De's father Kang'anhou.

Concubine De entered the palace for many years but had no children. Seeing that the other princes had grown up, Kang'an Hou was also anxious. This time he was about to send a woman specially trained in the family to the palace.

If the draft is cancelled, wouldn’t his plan be disappointed?

But before Kang'anhou finished speaking, Ning Youbei was out of the list.

Ning Youbei requested:

"I support the decision of the emperor. Now the border is unstable, and it is time for the soldiers to work hard. In order to express my apology and respect for the soldiers on the border, I also decided not to take concubines or concubines within five years."

“…”

“…”

The debate about the talent show in the previous dynasty spread throughout the Dayu Kingdom at the speed of strong winds. The people all lamented that there was a good emperor in the Dayu Kingdom, and soldiers who did not know the truth also felt good about the emperor...

Of course, the harem was the first to know this news.

In the Queen's Palace

The great palace maid Ruhua is putting on makeup for the queen. She gave birth to a son from the Duke of Wei's mansion and entered the palace with the queen.

"Empress, I see that the talent show has been cancelled. Anyway, the eldest prince has been in court and has the support of the Duke of Wei as his backing. It would be meaningless to argue about pampering or something."

The queen reached out and helped the nine-tailed golden hairpin on her head, and said carelessly: "I am not fighting for favor, but now His Majesty has not appointed a prince. He must have a look around him."

Ruhua said: "The eldest prince is the eldest son. If he wants to establish a prince, he will never be able to overcome him."

When it comes to standing up the prince, the queen is angry.

"In theory, the emperor's son is the eldest son, and he is the eldest son, whether he is the eldest son or the eldest son. But a while ago, my father sent me a message, telling me not to take it lightly.

It is said that from ancient times to the present, only a very small number of emperors, legitimate sons and eldest sons succeeded to the throne, and who can persist until the end is the winner."

When it comes to the establishment of the prince, Ruhua dares not say anything more.

The queen still felt uneasy:

If the prince is not appointed as the prince, I will not be able to establish any other prince. Anyway, my brother-in-law has the city defense force in his hands, and at worst he will be able to defeat the death!

...

In the palace of Defei

After hearing the news from the great palace maid Cuiping, Concubine De brushed her sleeves and didn't care much.

"Empress, aren't you worried?"

Concubine De sneered:

"What do I have to worry about? It's not that I have children myself, no matter who gives birth to them, it's the same. My father and the others are anxious to send someone to the palace for the benefit of the family. What's the benefit for me?"

Cuiping is Concubine De's confidant. Concubine De once helped her a lot, so she is loyal to Concubine De.

"What are the plans for that empress?"

"The emperor is now at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is too early to say this. However, if we want to live a good life after we get old, we always have to choose one."

...

Prime Minister's Mansion

Prime Minister Fang sat in a high position with an unknown expression, and below were Du Haiping, Minister of War and several other officials.

What they gathered here to discuss is not only the emperor's cancellation of the talent show, but also the previous impeachment of Qu Chu.

On that day, Fang Mingli was beaten out of the Piaoxian Tower by Qu Chu and the others. Although Prime Minister Fang Mingli was angry that he was not good at fighting and lingered in a place like brothel, Qu Chu did not give him face at all and made him angry.

Therefore, he asked someone to impeach Qu Chu.

I originally thought this was a foregone conclusion, but Qu Chu did break the precepts and would definitely be severely punished, so he also made a sigh of relief.

But who would have thought that Qu Chu would not retreat but advance instead, using questioning to cover up the fact that she made a mistake.

Moreover, this kind of questioning is a problem that makes people get sick by just by refuting. Why don’t Prime Minister Fang and the others angry?

"Prince, now things are already like this, so we shouldn't chase them back and forth."

Prime Minister Fang naturally understood this truth, but he could not swallow this breath.

"I always thought Qu Chu was a reckless man before, but I didn't expect her to be quite scheming." Du Haiping sighed: "I'm afraid that when she took the Piaoxiang Tower with high profile, she had thought about how to deal with it."

Another official echoed: "I think so too, we underestimated her before."

Seeing that Prime Minister Fang's face was gloomy, Du Haiping changed the subject.

"Prince, now the third prince is beginning to follow the government. It is the right thing to do if you plan for him."

Isn’t these people surrounding Prime Minister Fang because they are optimistic about the third prince? If they win the bet, they will have the merit of following the dragon, which will at least bring the family’s wealth for decades.

Prime Minister Fang was just a middle-class official before. Because he was elected to support the current emperor, he became Prime Minister after the current emperor ascended the throne and was also granted the title of Prince.

When he talked about the third prince, Prime Minister Fang's expression was much calmer and he started discussing it with everyone.

General Yudu's Mansion

Time flies very quickly, and it has been more than a month since the gathering of brothels.

Qu Chu's fingers were knocking unconsciously on the desk.

Wang Liangcong sent a message: The Tata tribe has been very restless recently and is secretly contacting various tribes to invade the Dayu Kingdom.

These messages were sent by the spys placed in the west.

Five years ago, the Tata tribe also wanted to unite the tribes to fight against the Dayu Kingdom. After getting the news, it disguised itself and secretly contacted the Toye tribe, the Haiqing tribe and several other tribes, which gave them benefits. The Tata tribe's plan was lost.

But that time was different from now. The Toyet tribe and Haiqing tribe were able to easily agree not entirely because they got the benefits, but because they were deeply afraid of themselves.

Now that the news of himself being a woman has spread, he was removed from his position as a general by the emperor and trapped in Yudu. The tribes in the west have greatly weakened their fear of themselves. How can they not develop ambition?

If they really formed an alliance and formed a joint army, General Fan, who is now defending the western border, would not be able to stop him.

Even if Wang Liang is sent to Wu Dagang, he may not be able to stop him.

Dayu is really short of generals!

How to break this situation?

How can we disclose the news to the emperor without any trace?

...

Imperial Palace Study Room

Looking at the news given to him by the King of Chu, the emperor asked in surprise: "Are these sources of information true?"

Ning Youbei answered him:

"This news was passed to me by Lingxiao Pavilion, but I have not confirmed it yet.

However, the Tata tribe has been restless, and the current leader Batu is even more ambitious. He dared not move abnormally before because General Qu was guarding the border, but now..."
