Empress marry

Chapter 504 From now on, there will be no women other than queens in this harem
General Qi was troubled by this.

Since it wasn't because he made a mistake and was unhappy, how could the emperor suddenly break his promise and refuse to let Li'er enter the palace?

"So your majesty, it's actually because of the empress, right?"

He sighed, with a tangled expression, "Now that the harem is empty, and Li'er is the first to stand out, it's normal for the empress to be dissatisfied. But there will be many other women in the future, and even if it's not Li'er, they will be someone else."

"There will be no one else."

The emperor retorted again, this time it shocked the surprised General Qi.

"What did you say?" He thought he was hallucinating.

"I said, there will be no future."

He didn't seem to see the surprise of the other party, and he narrated in a low voice, "It's not that I have any opinion on the general and your niece, but treat them equally. From now on, there will be no women other than the queen in this harem."

General Qi was shocked and completely forgot what to say.

"Emperor, Your Majesty."

It took him a long time to recover his voice, "Are you kidding? Since ancient times, how can an emperor not have a harem? Even if you treat the empress well, the general will understand, and you are not speaking for Li Er, but there is no harem ,This this……"

This is simply unbelievable, incomprehensible!

How could the emperor suddenly have such a shocking idea?
General Qi got up suddenly, and knelt down straight, "Your Majesty, you must not deceive the country because of your beauty! This harem is a tradition passed down from our ancestors, otherwise how will the royal family have thousands of heirs?"

Shangguan Jinglan pursed his lips slightly, his eyes were dark.

Because of this tradition, because of this concept, he has already lost a child.

"I've made up my mind, General Qi doesn't need to say much."

After a pause, "I know that you are dedicated to serving the country. Now I will give you two choices - what I promised you back then was to let Fan Li'er enter the palace, but I never promised her identity. If you insist on letting her enter the palace, Then she is the empress dowager's female official, not my concubine. She can only leave the palace to marry when she is 25 years old. Second, General Qi has worked hard for the country and the people, so he set a precedent - he was named the Marquis of Zhennan."

"General Qi is a smart person, he should know how to choose, huh?"

General Qi was slightly shocked.

In Donglin, Lord Hou is all direct blood relatives of the royal family, and there has never been a general of the opposite sex like him.

What's more, if a general holds a heavy army, if he is granted such an honor again, it will be... a great grace of the emperor!
Can……

"Your Majesty, the last general is not for himself, but this harem really cannot be vacant, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will not watch..."

"I will choose the second option for you. As for what to face in the future, it is my business."

Before he could finish speaking, the emperor interrupted impatiently, "I'm tired, the general should step down."

……

Lu Qingqing stood at the door of the inner hall, not daring to move casually, for fear that people outside would hear the movement inside.

She originally wanted to go out, but General Qi happened to come over. She had no intention of eavesdropping, but accidentally overheard their most important conversation.

Shangguan was startled.

Why did you make such a choice at this moment?

Her back was pressed tightly against the wall, and she didn't move for a long time.

Until a man's low voice came from my ear, "Lu Qingqing, what are you doing?"

She was startled, and her body trembled suddenly.

When she raised her eyes, she happened to meet the man's dark and deep eyes.
