Chapter 1867: Chapter 1867: Emperor, Bestow Another Consort Title

The carriage had already arrived outside Shaohua City, where ministers and officials had come to welcome it, congratulating Prince Mo with repeated kudos.

Of course, each one of them wanted to see for themselves what the Commandery Princess, who had been given in exchange for a female physician, looked like—perhaps she was a heavenly beauty.

Unfortunately, they didn’t even get a chance to see her alight from the carriage, nor did she draw back the curtain.

Amid the disappointed gazes of the civil and martial officials, Prince Mo led the carriage directly into Shaohua City, and then into Prince Mo’s Mansion.

...

"What did you say?!"

In the imperial study, the Emperor of Wei, who had been waiting for news, suddenly heard the words of the newly arrived cloaked figure and leapt up from the dragon throne in shock.

"I did not hear clearly, you... say it again."

The Emperor trembled his lips, disbelievingly staring at the cloaked figure.

"You heard me correctly, I told you to marry the Commandery Princess who came from the Liang Kingdom. As an emperor, granting her a concubine’s title is still permissible, right?" said the cloaked figure, emphasizing each word.

Emperor of Wei: "..."

The Commandery Princess of Liang, who might just be a complete country bumpkin from head to toe—He wouldn’t even want his son to marry her, much less himself?

Marrying such a woman would greatly diminish his status. As Emperor of Wei, he would be ridiculed to death by his own subjects!

"Master, you... you must be joking, right?"

He contorted his mouth, asking.

"Do you think I am joking with you?" the voice of the cloaked figure was icy cold, devoid of any warmth.

"I..."

The Emperor opened his mouth but ultimately dared not say anything.

How could he say the cloaked figure was joking? Then he would be playing a huge joke on himself!

This cloaked figure was clearly not as easy to talk to as the previous one, nor as impulsive, always acting with a strong purpose.

"Fine, I shall issue an edict, ordering Zimo to bring the person into the palace," he gritted his teeth and said to the cloaked figure.

What choice did he have? Even if the subjects of the Wei State knew that he, as a father, was going to take his own son’s bride, it was still better than dying at the hands of the cloaked figure, right?

"Hmm."

The cloaked figure responded lightly.

"As long as you follow my will, you will not lack benefits," he said before leaving.

"Damnable, damnable!"

After a while, once he was sure the cloaked figure had left, the Emperor cursed with a dark expression.

Did that cloaked figure think his harem was a garbage dump? Collecting any woman whatsoever?

Unless she was an unparalleled beauty, he absolutely would not consider her, not even spared her a glance. Now to bring in the Commandery Princess of Liang—that was simply nauseating!

That cloaked figure was truly detestable.

...

Outside the imperial study, Eunuch Gui, despite standing not far away, had clearly heard the conversation between the cloaked figure and the Emperor.

This was his first time seeing the cloaked figure, and the first time hearing their conversation.

Casting a cold glance towards the imperial study, he sneered in his heart: Just him, fancying to marry his master’s mother? Utterly preposterous!

"I must quickly relay this news to my master."

Thinking this, he hurriedly left.

...

Inside Prince Mo’s Mansion.

Upon entering the mansion, Zhe Jue had just received a message delivered from the palace.

Looking at the words, his face darkened immediately, and he hurried to where his master and master’s mother were.
