Chapter 1

"Tyrant!"

Qin Hao awoke suddenly from the dragon bed with a start at a shout.

In my vision, there is a classical person wearing court attire.

Her beauty was breathtaking, with a graceful and slender figure. Her waist was incredibly delicate, seeming to fit perfectly in the palm of your hand. She was born a goddess.

She was only left with tears streaming down her face, her jade hand clenched around a dagger. The sharp blade pressed against her throat, crimson blood seeping from the snow-white skin. Her eyes widened in terror.

"Qin Hao, you incompetent emperor! I am your concubine, yet you are so weak and fearful of the powerful official Li Mu that you sent me to him as a consort!"

"A foolish ruler? Sharing a bed?"

Qin Hao stared at the infant before him, memories flooding his mind.

I have become the emperor!

This country, Daxia, does not belong to any historical dynasty. It is vast in territory and populous.

It is a pity that the original owner was as timid as a mouse and incompetent, causing powerful ministers to take control of the government. The great Xia Dynasty was in turmoil, and its ancestral legacy was about to be destroyed.

The woman in front of me is Su Rongfei, a court lady known for her beauty. She dances gracefully and sings beautifully, she would be the perfect performer to entertain the emperor.

Tonight, at a banquet, the powerful official Li Mu called upon Su Rongfei to perform. Before all the civil and military officials, she danced the Neon Clothes Dance.

The emperor's concubines lived in seclusion within the imperial palace and should not have been seen in public. Li Mu's actions were a grave transgression, punishable by execution of his entire family according to the law.

The original owner, however, listened to Li Mu's advice. Not only did he allow Su Rongfei to dance on stage, but in order to please Li Mu, he issued an imperial decree ordering Su Rongfei to serve as Li Mu's concubine.

No wonder there is a saying among the people that "the emperor today is an imperial child".

Li Mu is not the emperor's biological father, but he is even better than a biological father.

"You tyrant, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!"

Su Rongfei, being the daughter of a fierce general, learned that Qin Hao was going to send her to Li Mu. Desperate, she stormed into the Palace of Tranquil Heart, ready to commit suicide by severing her own neck in front of Qin Hao!

Seeing that Su Rongfei was about to splash around, Qin Hao hurriedly shouted, "Come here! Come quickly!"

Su Rongfei, after all, was weak and delicate. Several guards rushed in and disarmed her in an instant, taking hold of her arms and forcing her to kneel before Qin Hao with her hands clasped behind her back.

The former guard, Zhanyulou, presented a dagger to the emperor: "Concubine Suling entered the Yixing Hall with a weapon, attempting to assassinate Your Majesty and plotting treason. She should be imprisoned in Tianguan Prison, and her entire family should be executed!"

"Bah!"

Su Rongfei spat a mouthful of fragrant saliva on Qin Hao's face: "Arrogant Emperor, if you have the guts, kill me! What abilities do my relatives even possess!"

"Bold! To show disrespect to Your Majesty!" Zhan Yulou pressed Su Rongfei's cheek hard against the ground.

"Stop! Let go!" Qin Hao rose, pushing away Zhan Yu Lou, and personally helped Su Rong Fei to her feet.

Zhan Yulou's face was full of surprise: "Your Majesty, Consort Su Rong committed a great transgression and should..."

Qin Hao's face darkened: "Shut up! I don't need you to point fingers when I do things!"

Zhan Yulou was drenched in cold sweat, he retreated to the side, not daring to speak any more.

Su Rongfei's pretty face was full of surprise, and she looked at Qin Hao: "Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"

Qin Hao felt deeply guilty: "My queen, this matter is my fault. I shouldn't have sent you to Li Mu. I apologize to you."

Upon hearing this, Consort Su Rong was greatly startled. Although the Emperor was frail, he was still the Son of Heaven. How could he apologize to her?

Plop!

Su Rongfei knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, filled with grievance to the utmost: "Your Majesty, as long as you don't send me to Li Mu! I will serve you for my entire life, even as a cow or a horse!"

Qin Hao looked at Su Rongfei's appearance, feeling deeply distressed.

What a great person!

To preserve his innocence, he would rather die.

Those who came after, only had eyes for money and didn't know the meaning of 節.

The original owner is such a jerk!

Such a top-notch person, they're actually willing to give this to someone else!

Qin Hao stepped forward and wiped the tears from Su Rongfei's face: "My queen, don't cry! I was wrong. I promise you, from now on, you belong to me! I will bestow upon you the title of Empress, managing the palace and embodying maternal virtue throughout the land!"

Su Rongfei was stunned.

This is the first time I've heard Qin Hao speak like this.

But Consort Su didn't believe it.

Lowering her head, she said: "Your Majesty, I dare not. Your Majesty has three thousand beauties in the palace. I am not Consort Li, how could I dare to ask Your Majesty to favor me alone? In the future, when Your Majesty scolds and punishes me, please be a little lighter. I will be content!"

"Lady Li Gui? Li Mu's daughter?" Qin Hao's mind flashed a blurry image. He carried fragments of the original owner's memories, some things were unclear.

Su Rongfei performed a thousand greetings: "Since Your Majesty has taken back the order, this concubine will return first. Also, Your Majesty, please go to Huacheng Palace for rest, if you are late, the Noble Consort might be unhappy."

Having said that, Su Rongfei was about to leave.

Qin Hao grabbed Su Rongfei's slender wrist: "Don't go! Tonight, I want you to stay in the Yongxin Hall and sleep with me!"

Su Rongfei was startled and exclaimed, “Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager does not allow you to consort with other concubines. If she finds out, she will surely be furious.”

Qin Hao's face darkened: "I am the emperor! I decide which concubine sleeps with me, and need not listen to Li Guifei's prattle. I don't care! Today, I choose not to go to Huacheng Palace, and insist that you stay behind to serve me!"

Su Rongfei was both surprised and delighted.

Your Majesty, is this a turn of events?

Over the years, Concubine Li has held absolute power in the palace. The Emperor trembles before her like a mouse facing a cat.

Today, Your Majesty finally lost his temper and dared to disobey Concubine Li?

Before Su Rongfei could refuse, Qin Hao dismissed the guards and carried her to the dragon bed.

"Your Majesty..."

Su Rongfei wanted to refuse, but she found that her palace attire had been taken down by Qin Hao.

Seeing Qin Hao's face flushed red, like an ant on a hot stove, Su Rongfei blushed again. She clasped her hands together, covering her mouth with a touch of snow-white, her pretty face blushing.

In the past year, the Emperor has never graced Consort Su's palace with his presence.

Until now, Consort Su Rong has remained unconscious and still a daughter.

But Qin Hao was too impatient and wouldn't listen to explanations.

The day Su Rongfei married into the palace, she became the Emperor's person.

She also wants to be favored by the emperor and, at her best, give birth to a dragon prince to continue the incense of the Qin royal family.

But the emperor was weak and incompetent, wronged in court, so he vented his anger on the concubines in the harem, beating and scolding them.

Su Rongfei's clothes fell, revealing wounds all over her fair body.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I'm not beautiful enough. I'm worried that I might offend you..." Su Rongfei said with tears in her eyes.

"No, I think it's wonderful!" Qin Hao felt a pang of guilt and gently kissed the scar on Su Rongfei's jade back. "It's my fault, I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you! Tomorrow, I will summon a doctor to treat your injuries."

Su Rongfei's back ached, and her heart felt like being lightly scratched by cat claws. Her cheeks flushed red: "Your Majesty, this concubine is still young, and I..."

Seeing the look of welcome and refusal, Qin Hao's blood surged. He leaned in and kissed her red lips.

A single night of spring joy is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
