[Gu Jian Qing Shen: If your concubine is from a humble background, she will be virtuous and virtuous, but will be prone to jealousy]

This is a more conceptual destiny, very vague, and it seems that it should be able to improve the concubine's morality.

Thinking about it this way, it might be the most useful one among the five chosen gods.

Liu Ke did not want the harem to catch fire, but harem battles were common in the past dynasties, and they often escalated to the level of affecting the fate of the country.

There are many examples from our ancestors, such as the witchcraft disaster when Empress Lu was in power, and the Zhao Feiyan sisters who wholesale cuckolded Emperor Cheng.

Even Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who had a deep love for the old sword, failed to save Xu Pingjun, the heroine of the incident, and was stunned to be poisoned.

If he had this destiny and the concubine had good moral character, Liu Ke would be much more relaxed and would not have to worry about the fire in the harem.

For example, being drunk and talking nonsense and being muffled to death by a concubine, or being choked to death by several palace maids, these are basically impossible to happen if there are one or more virtuous concubines who can manage the harem well.

"But the conditions are too harsh, right? You have to be from a humble background?"

Liu Ke was a little distressed. His choice of concubine this time was a gesture of goodwill to the important officials of the family.

Those listed on the draft list are all daughters of aristocratic families, which has nothing to do with their humble background.

In the future, if I have the chance, I can go to Jiangnan seven or eight times and bring back a few folk girls next time, but I don’t have this condition now.

The tendency behind Tianming to be jealous made Liu Ke even more confused.

A virtuous and virtuous person is naturally susceptible to jealousy, and coupled with a humble background, he is even more susceptible to jealousy.

"Does this mean that like Xu Pingjun, you are easily poisoned?"

"After everything is over, can you use this as an excuse to deal with the relatives of the aristocratic family like Emperor Xuan did?"

You must know that after Xu Pingjun's death, the Huo family, which was in power, was uprooted by Emperor Xuan.

"It's really a good excuse to use it to attack the relatives of the aristocratic family, but it's a bit useless for my wife."

Liu Ke shook his head repeatedly, unable to think of a way to use it for a while.

It is better to draft the draft first and then consider these political struggles.

After fighting for half a year, why don't you let me enjoy it?

Those palace ladies of the late emperor who were in their forties or fifties were so eye-catching that people were almost hallucinating, and even gave Liu Ke the idea that all civil and military officials in the dynasty were very pleasing to the eye.

If you continue like this, you will have psychological problems sooner or later.

Liu Ke first held a banquet to celebrate.

He happened to be familiar with the people from the aristocratic families who sent the girls to the palace.

Unexpectedly, when he first entered the palace, he almost fell down due to the garlic under his feet. Fortunately, he managed to balance his body and did not fall down.

"Is this the effect of the Hongmen Banquet?"

Liu Ke couldn't help but secretly smacked his tongue. If this was the first time he smoked this thing, he wouldn't have to worry about killing Yuwen in person. He could just hold a banquet and win it directly.

In addition to people from aristocratic families, there were also many civil and military officials from the DPRK and China involved.

Xiao Yuanchang also came here specially despite his busy schedule.

After all, the emperor's selection of his concubines was a major matter, and he could have neglected it in the past. After all, the Han Dynasty was about to perish before his eyes, and no one cared whether the emperor had concubines or heirs.

Things are different now. The Han Dynasty is gaining momentum and revival is expected. The old Liu family must spread its branches and give birth to a dragon son in order to stabilize the government.

The emperor has no heirs, which is the primary problem that the court must solve at any time!

This is a family matter for the emperor and a national event!

In fact, Liu Ke also hopes to give birth to a son and a half daughters as soon as possible.

Because Emperor Xiaowu could not give birth to a son for a long time, he made many people anxious and made many princes and kings ready to take action.

Emperor Zhaolie also adopted Liu Feng as his adopted son because he never gave birth to a son.

With a son, Liu Ke would be able to have his son supervise the country and relieve the pressure if he personally went to war in the future.

Then draw [General Zhengbei], not only can you hang up offline, but you can also raise a son!

Liu Ke entered the palace and sat down at the head of the palace.

At this time, the palace was crowded with people. There were already a large number of courtiers and people from aristocratic families. They were all well-dressed and looked good.

Liu Ke immediately became excited. From the looks of it, their daughter should be good-looking.

As soon as these people saw the emperor entering the palace, they immediately bowed down and their eyes shone. They almost wanted to think of ways to make themselves stand out so that they could hug him more easily.

Everyone thought that their daughter would be selected by the emperor, and from then on she would be placed in the harem and become a relative of the emperor.

Half a year ago, not many people would have wanted their daughters to go into the pit of fire to keep company with the king who had subjugated his country.

If you can't even afford the money from the palace maid, how can your daughter get it if she enters the palace?

It is different now. The possibility of the Han Dynasty's Northern Expedition succeeding is still relatively small.

But after the Donghu Navy was completely destroyed, judging from many aspects such as the prestige of the Han Dynasty, the combat effectiveness displayed by the Han army, and the emperor's personal ability.

There is almost no possibility of the country subjugating within thirty years. At least the emperor has not been replaced, and the Han Dynasty can still survive.

But for such a wise master, the harem is still empty.

Even the position of queen is vacant. Who doesn't want his daughter to be the mother-in-law?

You must know that when Emperor Zhaolie was very poor and had only the name of an imperial uncle and Xuzhou, even the Mi family of Xuzhou dared to bet on it.

The subsequent harvest is visible to the world.

Emperor Zhaolie entered Sichuan and Shu, and Mi Zhu became the general of Anhan. His status was even higher than that of the Wuxiang Marquis, and his treatment was the highest among the ministers.

Although he declined somewhat later on, he was still an important official of the Han Dynasty.

Looking at the enthusiasm in front of him, Liu Ke knew very well in his heart that the more enthusiastic he was, the less likely he would be to choose.

Especially for a family that is deeply involved with the ministers of the DPRK and China, he will not choose it.

At most, she would be left as a palace maid and canonized as a concubine, which is a no-brainer.

Anyway, the emperor of the Han Dynasty often had the absolute initiative in selecting his concubines.

You don’t need to think too much, it mainly comes down to personal preference.

Even if the power of the Huo family was overwhelming, wouldn't Emperor Xuan still appoint Xu Pingjun?

Liu Ke sat quietly at the table, eating and drinking for a while, and then waited for the roster to be brought up.

While he was stroking the mighty general's chicken head, he was tapping the table lightly.

To be honest, he was quite looking forward to it.

After all, the scope of the Liu family's draft selection is quite wide.

Be it loli, be it royal sister, or even wife, just four words, I want them all.

Liu Ke also knew that those people from aristocratic families who flocked to the palace to participate in the banquet also wanted to find out the emperor's quirks.

After all, there can't be only one draft, and opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

"Speaking of it, our old Liu family does not tolerate meat and fish, and we have even had quite a few divorces."

The first empress, Empress Bo, of Emperor Xiaojing, whom Liu Ke had always paid tribute to, remarried, and the later empress Wang even had a daughter among the people.

The same goes for Emperor Zhaolie, and Empress Wu is simply a widow.

So much so that in the year of the emperor's draft, various cases of annulment, regret, and divorce occurred one after another among the people.

If it weren't for the historical plane, I would probably be able to raise a lot of Thirty Years Hedong and Thirty Years Hexi.

Liu Ke thought that this might be attributed to the toughness of the sons of the Han family, so he highlighted the fact that he did not believe in evil.

Maybe the more cunning you are, the more popular you are. You died because this woman is not an ordinary person. Your life is as thin as paper and your blessing is as light as cotton wool. You can't bear it. Look at me!

Thinking about it this way, Mengde was really loyal to the Han Dynasty. He even made a will before his death, requiring all his concubines who had not given birth to children to remarry, so that his political ideas could be spread.

"But it's better to choose a concubine with a clean background."

It's not that Liu Ke didn't care about the widow. The main reason was that he broke off the engagement in order to enter the palace. A divorced woman must not have simple thoughts.

The draft system of the old Liu family is full of loopholes, so a woman like this who deliberately resorts to tricks is destined to be either very scheming or from a very powerful family background.

Wang Zhaojun is a good example of this. Just being beautiful and talented does not necessarily mean you can become a concubine. You must also have the means, connections, and family background.

Thinking of these things, Liu Ke's fingers tapping on the table suddenly became flat.

"I just hope these aristocratic families have some idea."

"This selection of concubine is of course a slight show of goodwill towards the aristocratic family and some preference, but it is ultimately my business."

"When you choose a concubine, you choose a concubine, not a noble family."

Liu Ke's idea is very simple. He can take the initiative to choose a girl from an aristocratic family as his concubine, but the aristocratic family cannot let him choose a girl from an aristocratic family as his concubine.

Just as he was thinking about it, Hua Chengyu came to Liu Ke holding a roster and bowed:

"Your Majesty, this is the list of show girls this time. Please take a look at it!"
