The host is no longer a human today.

"Your Majesty, I think that the country cannot live without a queen. Now that your majesty's mourning period has passed and the harem is empty, the royal heir is really worrying! I beg your majesty to put the country first, hold a beauty pageant, select the selected girls to enter the palace, expand the royal family, and give birth to a crown prince as soon as possible to stabilize the country!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

In the court, as the first old minister proposed the selection of candidates, a large number of ministers knelt down below.

Shen Zuixue, who was sitting in the upper seat, suddenly felt a dark complexion on her face, and it took her a long time before she spoke.

"I already have a Red Eagle accompanying me in my harem, so there is no need to choose again."

Lord Lin, who was the first to stand up, immediately raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, the queen has been receiving the emperor's grace for more than a year, but she still hasn't given birth to an heir. I think we should choose some women who can give birth."

"I am now in my prime, and you are so eager for me to take a concubine. Is it because you are worried about the country, or do you think that I will not live long?! Or... do you want to support a puppet heir and get rid of the father and keep the son?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ministers turned pale and bowed themselves in panic.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. We have absolutely no such intention!"

Shen Zuixue sat at the top and did not ask the ministers to stand up. The ministers below did not expect that he would not follow the rules. It was okay for the younger ministers, but the older ministers could not kneel down. However, the emperor did not ask them to stand up, so they did not dare to stand up.

"Do you all think that I am easy to control?" Shen Zuixue looked at the ministers kneeling below, revealing his sharp edge.

"I dare not wait."

Some ministers have already complained in their hearts about those who proposed the beauty contest. Most of these proposers have royal family members behind them, or have their own little calculations, and they are the ones who have suffered undeserved disaster.

The ministers knelt in agony, and the emperor on the throne looked at them calmly. It seemed to be a silent confrontation between the emperor and his ministers. In fact, Shen Zuixue, who was sitting on the high seat, was not angry at all, but calm.

Shen Zuixue glanced at the whole audience calmly, and Qian Mao immediately lowered his body and asked, "Does the emperor have any instructions?"

"Retreat from the court."

"Yes."

With Qian Mao's last word of "dismiss the court——", the morning court ended with the ministers kneeling down.

The ministers stood up slowly. Several of them could not stand up anymore. They were supported by each other and left the palace in groups of three or four.

"Hiss - I really suffered an unexpected disaster today. I don't know why those old guys have to keep an eye on the emperor's harem!" Lin Yuji leaned on Xu Ze'an, grinning and complaining in a low voice.

"Speak softly, or someone will catch you. The emperor is furious today, and this is just the beginning." Xu Ze'an sighed softly, supporting Lin Yuji and walking out slowly.

"The emperor is starting to prepare to take back power."

For a moment, the road from the palace to the outside was filled with ministers in groups of three or four, supporting each other and chatting in whispers.

No matter what they think, Shen Zuixue is now becoming stronger.

However, what they didn’t know was that the emperor, whom they thought had finally risen to power, went to the regent to complain pitifully after the court session.

"Chang Sui, those guys only know how to stare at my harem, thinking about me participating in the draft every day. They are simply treating me as a reproductive tool!"

Shen Zuixue started yelling as soon as he entered the room. Yan Changsui, who was leaning on the couch, was thrown into his arms and had no choice but to put down the memorial in his hand.

"Your Majesty, didn't you already know their actions?"

It was precisely because Shen Zuixue knew this in advance that he asked Yan Changsui to claim illness and not attend court today.

After all, Yan Changsui has been living in the harem since half a year ago, and the two of them have been making love every day and night. How could he bear to let his Sui Sui kneel for so long?
