Chapter 774: Chapter 774 Monogamy_1

He just hinted slightly, curious about Nan Feng’s response.

Yet Nan Feng appeared calm and unaffected.

In Nan Feng’s mind, regardless of the gender of the general, her brother’s feelings were unwaveringly firm. Moreover, how fierce could a female general be who had experienced the battlefield? Her brother wouldn’t take to that kind either.

Seeing that Nan Feng was not affected, the Emperor knew that she did not regard Lu Jianxi as significant, and thus he ceased to speak. He simply said, "You’ve come at a good time; I wanted to introduce you to someone."

"Who is it?" Nan Feng enquired.

"Eunuch Wan, has the person arrived yet? Go and bring them here."

"Yes," Eunuch Wan then left her presence.

Clearly, the Emperor was keeping her in suspense, awaiting the arrival of this person, possibly to surprise or startle Nan Feng.

"Lady Nan Feng, while we are waiting, could we engage in some conversation?" The Emperor asked.

Nan Feng found it increasingly difficult to understand this Emperor; one moment he was pleasant, the next he was not. Sometimes he would discuss state affairs and wish to hear her opinion. Nan Feng would speak her mind, such as her views on last time’s water management or this time’s examination selection.

Could it be that the Emperor noticed her foresightedness?

Being a modern woman, of course, she had a long-term perspective.

So when the Emperor heard Nan Feng speak about putting the people first, his curiosity about her grew.

"How did Lady Nan Feng come up with these concepts?"

"I once had a dream, in which I saw all these things."

"Good, tell me about your dream."

Nan Feng then summarized the situation of modern people, "In my dream, although there were emperors and layers of rulers, they would comply with the will of the people. All systems were established on the foundation of serving the common people. Everyone could choose their own profession and earned a living from it... In addition, there was a monogamous system in my dream."

"Oh? Even monarchs are subject to monogamy?" The Emperor inquired.

"Yes."

"What if the monarch does not have an heir? Doesn’t it risk a lack of succession?" The Emperor further asked.

Nan Feng understood that if she suggested a democratic decision by the public, she might find herself in danger. So she responded with a hint of a smile, "Anyway, someone of royal blood needs to be found."

The Emperor shook his head, "If all monarchs have only one wife, the royal bloodline might not necessarily continue. I disagree with this point."

Nan Feng laughed it off, "Your Majesty, it was you who requested it. It was only a dream of Nan Feng."

"Never mind, let’s not discuss this," The Emperor finished speaking and clapped his hands. As soon as his applause subsided, Eunuch Wan brought in a person.

"Quickly pay your respects to His Majesty, also to your master," Eunuch Wan reminded the newcomer.

At first Nan Feng had not looked carefully, but when she heard the familiar voice of Xiaoqing, she was taken aback.

"This humble servant bows to His Majesty and also, to Sister Nan Feng," Xiaoqing appeared very restrained, evidently she had just entered the palace.

Apart from Little Fuzi, who treated her well in the palace, Nan Feng had no other true friends. Now that Xiaoqing had arrived, a wave of warmth surged up in her heart as though she saw a loved one.

"Xiaoqing, you may rise," Nan Feng helped Xiaoqing up. Xiaoqing looked at Nan Feng, but as she had just entered the palace, she dared not say much.

Nan Feng then turned to look at the Emperor, "Your Majesty, Nan Feng has a lot to talk to Xiaoqing about. She will not disturb you any further and will take her leave now."
