Chapter 044: Concubine Selection

After Su Mingrui was taken to 'enjoyment', Su Chen and Xiang Zhong were left in the imperial study.

Xiang Zhong had just broken through the realm of heaven, and he is now a powerhouse in the realm of heaven, but when facing Su Chen at the moment, he didn't dare to take a breath, and his knees trembled involuntarily. Don't dare to make a sound.

In fact, Su Chen is not very familiar with this Xiang Zhong. Although he is the prime minister of the Dragon Kingdom and has a high position, Su Chen did not stay in the Dragon Kingdom for a long time. He has not met Xiang Zhong a few times. There is no hostility.

Moreover, this person is indeed very good at governing the country. Su Chen is currently lacking shrewd and capable people, so naturally he will not use him.

"Xiang Zhong, have you broken through the realm of heaven?"

Xiang Zhong hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thanks to the Soul Condensing Pill bestowed by Your Majesty, Xiang Zhong's knowledge has been opened up and he has broken through the realm of heaven."

"Well, yes, be loyal to the Su family in the future, and don't let your name down." Su Chen waved his hand and asked Xiang Zhong to retire.

For the next few days, Su Chen was still busy with the affairs of the palace.

It feels like there is always something to do.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and the situation of changing the dynasty finally stabilized soon.

Of course there were no murders.

There are still a lot of foolish ministers who are loyal to the Chu family, but Su Chen didn't let go of any of them, and let Yuchi Weide arrest them all.

After a few more days, Su Chen finally couldn't wait any longer, and set off for the Dragon Country.

Su Mingrui also set off with Su Chen.

He has lost a lot of weight in the past few days, and he is swaying when he walks, as if a gust of wind can blow him away.

Three days later, Su Chen's imperial car arrived at the capital of the Dragon Kingdom.

After more than a year, when he returned to his homeland again, Su Chen's mood was still quite complicated.

"Chen'er!"

Before reaching the gate of the city, Su Chen heard a shout.

It is his biological mother in this life, Concubine Hua Gui!

Although Su Chen hadn't met her a few times, the affection imprinted in his blood still drove Su Chen to greet her and hug her mother heavily.

"The mother, the son came back late, and the mother suffered."

Concubine Huagui said with tears flowing: "Chen'er, when you grow up, mother knows that you won't let mother down, hurry up, hurry back to the palace with mother, mother made you your favorite braised braised pork. Meat."

"Good mother."

Su Chen turned around and said, "I'm reuniting with my mother today, so don't disturb anyone. I'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

"As ordered."

Su Mingrui was the first to kneel down.

When the ministers who came to greet them saw this scene, they were all terrified, and they followed Su Mingrui and knelt down to Su Chen.

Seeing this, Concubine Hua, the relief on her face is beyond words.

...

Qin State, Imperial Palace.

Qin Jiushi sat on the dragon chair and frowned deeply.

"I didn't expect the Su family to come out with such a monster as Su Chen, and take Da Chu suddenly, how to gather the Dragon Kingdom of Chu Kingdom, plus the group of refining pharmacists from Shennong Kingdom, Su Chen's strength has become the top of the southern border. What countermeasures can the ministers have?"

The Minister of Military Aircraft stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Su Chen is a young man who has great ambitions and plans. Lao Cheng suggested that General Lin should be recalled to the Tiger Cavalry Army immediately, and the army should be moved south to guard the border gate. Unprepared."

Qin Jiushi was moved, but his eyes still fell on a masked woman in black on the main hall.

Even though the woman covered her face and closed her eyes, she could still feel the charming and enchanting aura emanating from her body. With her here, a strange fragrance wafted throughout the hall.

This is the witch Lin Yuerou said.

Qin Jiushi said with a humbly face: "Does the national teacher have any ideas?"

The black-clothed woman slowly opened her eyes, and her soul-stirring and charming demeanor made all the officials in the court blushed inexplicably.

"Su Chen, maybe it's time for me to meet him for a while."

...

Zhao State, in the eastern outskirts of the capital, has the first peak in the world.

In fact, the first peak in the world is just a bare hill with a height of only 300 to 400 meters. The reason why it has such a name is because the person living on this hill is the strongest person in the southern border, Ye Xuan. null.

Ye Xuankong does not belong to any country. He travels around all year round, but at this time of year, he always comes to Zhao country and lives on this hill for a period of time.

At this time, Zhao Yingrong, the emperor of Zhao Kingdom, had arrived at the foot of the mountain.

"Your Majesty, the mountain is steep, let the old minister carry you up the mountain." An old eunuch said while bending over.

Zhao Yingrong got off the carriage, put aside the old eunuch, looked at the inconspicuous log cabin on the top of the mountain with reverence, and said, "I will go by myself."

...

Ning country.

A cloudy valley.

No one knows that this is the largest and most hidden prison in Ning Country. Around the huge valley, more than 100,000 elite soldiers are stationed, and more than 500 Shenwu cannons are aimed at the valley all year round.

But in such an impregnable prison, only one person was actually detained.

"The criminal minister Meng Xuzhou received the order, and His Majesty ordered you to go to the Dragon Kingdom immediately and wait for the opportunity to assassinate Su Chen, the new emperor of the Dragon Kingdom."

...

Three days later, Su Chen ascended the throne in the Dragon Kingdom.

After all, Long Guo is Su Chen's base camp, and Su Mingrui has shown his sincerity, so his ascension to the throne is a lot easier. Su Chen doesn't need to be busy at all, just sit on the dragon chair and accept the civil and military officials. of worship.

Su Chen didn't even bother to deal with the official business that was connected, so he pushed all of them to Su Mingrui.

This made Su Mingrui grateful to Su Chen, and thought it was because Su Chen trusted him, but he didn't know that Su Chen was just lazy.

In fact, after being the emperor for a few days, Su Chen really felt that it was meaningless. It seemed that his power was overwhelming, but he was limited everywhere, busy and busy, and there was no free time at all.

It's just suppressing nature.

For a free and lazy person like Su Chen, the emperor may be the most unsatisfactory profession.

It would be more comfortable to be a pharmacist.

Certainly not without benefits.

That is, you can marry as many wives as you want. Although 3,000 harem beauties are a bit too much, it is absolutely not a problem to marry dozens or hundreds of her.

But Su Chen has no hobby in this regard.

It's not that he has few desires and has no interest in women.

It's not that your vision is too high, and you don't want to be absolutely stunning.

It's just that he will leave the southern border sooner or later, and now he is back with a bunch of concubines, should they be left as a widow?

That's not to mention the green on the head.

But although Su Chen thought so, his mother Hua Guifei didn't think so.

"Chen'er, you are now the king of a country, and it's time to choose a queen to help you control the inner palace. My mother helped you find a few ladies, all of whom are beautiful and beautiful, and go with your mother. Let's take a look, pick one and get things done as soon as possible, my mother is still waiting to hold her grandson."

Unable to resist Concubine Hua's insistence, Su Chen went reluctantly.
