*Li Juan's POV
The day I married Chaoxing, I knew I was going to repeat the same pattern as before. Dealing with concubines, the battle of harem. It was inevitable when leaving in this era. And today, the officials of the court proposed the same thing to Chaoxing. As one of the monarchs of the six states, Chaoxing and I agreed to attend each other's court together.
"If you are so worried about the imperial heirs, why don't one of you ascend the throne? I will never marry another concubine" Chaoxing saidÂ
"Your Highness, imperial heirs are very important. His Highness is still in his prime. Why don't we take advantage of the situation right now? Besides, we still don't know if Her Highness can bear more imperial heirs" One of the officials said
"How dare you be so unruly! You are talking about the empress! Guards, take him outside and have him flogged 50 times!" Chaoxing said angrily while I kept quiet.
