Ah? The ladies I stabbed have come true.

Chapter 54: The Empress's Appearance, Unexpected Charm
Watching the evolution of the picture, Su Mo was a little surprised. He didn't expect the story to develop like this.

Then can he, the third prince, still be considered the third prince?
I just don't know how I will meet this empress next.

……

After learning that your father had passed away, you didn't feel sad, because you had only met him three times in your life. In your heart, he was just your father in the biological sense, and your affection for him was not as strong as that of a servant who often took care of you.

[A month after your father's death, a message arrived.]

[The title of King of Qi needs a successor. The current Empress Xiao Huang hopes to choose one from among you princes to inherit the throne.]

[Now, your father's dozens of sons are completely restless and all want to inherit the throne of King Qi.]

[But you don't want to fight for it, because in your heart, nothing is more important than reading the sage books.]

After learning about your attitude, your mother immediately came to your study to persuade you.

"Mo'er, you have to fight for this throne. If you don't fight for it, others will. Then you will be the king for generations."

"Can you bear to see future generations suffer?"

"Listen to mother. When the empress comes in a few days to invite you former princes to the throne room, you must strive hard to get it."

What do you choose now?

[Option 1: Listen to your mother's words and strive to inherit the title of King of Qi.]

[Option 2: Host a Hongmen Banquet for his thirty-two brothers, and administer a slow-acting poison to all of them, causing them to die inexplicably.]

[Option 3: To appease the people, the Xiao family did not restrict the personal rights of the Su family. They now rejected their mother's proposal, telling her that they only wanted to study and would take the provincial examination in August.]

……

Seeing the three options, Su Mo immediately started to consider them.

Because of his "righteousness" talent, he cannot choose some chaotic and evil options, otherwise his righteousness will be extinguished.

So the second item is directly excluded.

As for the first and third items.

Su Mo was a little hesitant.

Because Emperor Deji had a total of 3 sons, each of whom was well-educated, even if one of them was chosen to inherit the throne, the probability was only about %.

Rather than gambling on a single shot.

It would be better to cultivate this righteous spirit to the highest level.

See what magical powers will appear.

The right way is to study hard and take the imperial examination.

of course.

It seems strange no matter how you look at it that a prince takes part in the imperial examination.

He didn't have a choice.

then.

Su Mo chose the third option.

You chose the third option.

"Tell your mother that the Su royal family has now become commoners and that you no longer have any desire for power. The only right path is to take the imperial examination."

After learning about your idea, your mother was very disappointed with you and finally had to give up.

【Then, you spread this news to all your brothers.】

All of your brothers are very happy that you have voluntarily withdrawn from the inheritance, and they are even more caring towards you.

[And a banquet was held specially for you, and everyone ended up getting drunk.]

Watching the evolution of the picture, the little devil in Su Mo's heart came out.

If the second option is selected.

He probably pretended to tell everyone that he had given up the inheritance of King Qi, so as to trick everyone into coming and then poison them to death.

Tsk tsk.

It's a pity.

No if.

……

Soon, the news that you voluntarily gave up the inheritance and wanted to take the imperial examination reached the ears of Empress Xiao Huang.

When she learned that you had given up the choice of heir to the King of Qi, she began to look at you with new eyes and wanted to see what kind of a man you were.

[So, on the day of selecting the successor to the King of Qi, Empress Xiao Huang specifically sent someone to call you over.]

Inside the waiting hall, all the former princes gathered. Your sudden appearance has made all your brothers wary of you. The eldest prince, Su Jingyu, is the most likely to become the King of Qi. Seeing you approach, he immediately became hostile.

"Third brother, didn't you say you would give up the title of King of Qi and concentrate on taking the imperial examination?"

"What are you here for now?"

"I thought you really wanted to quit!"

The words of the eldest prince Su Jingyu immediately resonated with the other princes.

"That's right, you've already withdrawn, and now you suddenly show up again. What's the difference between this behavior and that of a villain who goes back on his word and doesn't keep his word!"

"Yes, now is the time for selection. The Empress will be here soon. There's no way to withdraw now even if I want to!"

"Third brother, I didn't expect you to be the one hiding the most!"

"..."

[Voices questioning you kept coming one after another, but you chose to ignore them.]

[Two hours later, the Empress walked in. As soon as she entered, all the noisy sounds in the hall disappeared at that moment.]

……

Seeing the empress appear, Su Mo quickly zoomed in, trying to see every detail of the other person.

In the picture, Xiao Huang walked slowly into the hall wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes.

His entire body was wrapped in a wide and fitted red dragon robe, which was covered with five-clawed golden dragons embroidered with gold thread.

However, although the dragon robe was wide, it could not completely cover the plump outline.

The waist and hip curves are extremely perfect, especially the slender waist, which makes people want to hold it with one hand.

In addition, the exposed skin is also extremely delicate, with a pearl-like luster on the surface, and it looks gorgeous against the backdrop of the red dragon robe.

Raising his chin slightly, Xiao Huang slowly looked around the hall.

A pair of phoenix eyes, looking around with brilliance.

All the princes of the previous dynasty immediately lowered their heads and dared not breathe.

Su Mo looked at the empress in the picture, and suddenly he felt a desire to conquer her.

This woman is so beautiful, especially her pride and inviolability.

He had only seen this kind of energy in Daji.

But because Daji liked the simulated self from the beginning, she did not reveal too much in front of herself.

But Xiao Huang is different.

Now, I am a complete stranger to the simulated self. My aura is absolutely overwhelming. If an ordinary person saw me, he would probably kneel down and kowtow on the spot.

Conquering such a woman is definitely a great pleasure in life.

……

[The moment you saw Xiao Huang, you immediately lowered your head.]

Xiao Huang had secretly observed the scene of you being attacked by all the princes over the past two hours. She was very interested in your composure.

[However, what is more important now is the assessment of the many princes of the previous dynasty.]

[She walked up the imperial steps with lotus steps, turned around, and spoke in a majestic voice.]

"The position of King Qi is not so easy to obtain."

"Since you all want it, let's be fair. I won't consider it based on the ranking of the princes."

Upon hearing the Empress' words, the eldest and second princes' faces instantly turned as dark as charcoal, while the others were jubilant, as this would increase their chances of succession.

[Immediately afterwards, Empress Xiao Huang changed the subject.]

"There are many animals in the hunting grounds now. Some of them have even developed intelligence. The next step is to become monsters."

"If this continues for a long time, it will be a hidden danger."

"Go to the hunting ground and hunt. The more animals you kill, the more points you'll earn. There will be someone to monitor and keep score."

"The one with the highest score will be crowned King of Qi!"

[After hearing the selection rules, everyone's hearts felt like they were being poured with a bucket of cold water.]

[How could they be a match for these animals that are close to demons!]

[After saying these words, Empress Xiao Huang looked at you.]

"You stay."

"Come watch the battle with me."
