Chapter 3: I Have Every Reason to Choose You

“What? Why did you choose her, your majesty?” Consort Ming was astonished, ashamed and angry.
Hua Qingxin also wanted to ask, why was she selected? She thought she should have been dragged out and beheaded.
“I like her.” Yun Cang measured her with his eyes with interest. “She kneeled in a charming way and kowtowed at ease with elegance.”
Consort Rong could not bear it, “But, but her face is as red as a monkey ass.”
“Which represents her unrestrained spirit.”
The other consorts found her faults, too.
“Her dress is just like a feather duster. Her taste is really bad…”
“You don’t understand. It is like a peacock showing its tails!”
“Hey, since when does kowtowing become a talent and skill?”
“Of course! It is an ancient skill!”
God! What was wrong with the emperor? How could he talk barefaced nonsense naturally like this!
Hua Qingxin was too ashamed to raise her head.
Staring at Hua Qingxin, Yun Cang said in a deep and solemn way, “You are my beauty now. Do you hear me, Beauty Hua?”
“Ah…” Facing with the sudden conferment, Hua Qingxin was at a loss. She looked out of the window unconsciously, as if she was searching for something.
Yun Cang smiled slightly, “Don’t worry. Prince Yun Hai will not arrest you with his sword.”
Hua Qingxin was shocked, and finally fell on the ground desperately. She could not help shedding tears.
“Your majesty, the stupid girl did not even know how to express gratitude for the favor.” Consort Ming blinked her eyes and said in a low and careful voice, “There are so many beautiful girls. Why do you choose a girl keen on another man? There are still many girls waiting out…”
“There is no reason to like or dislike a person. Besides…” Yun Cang stood up. He glanced at Consort Ming and said in a cold voice, “How dare you question my choice? Go back and balance joss sticks and candles on your head.”
“Show some mercy, your majesty…” Consort Ming threw herself on her knees coquettishly.
But the emperor did not look at her at all. He did not want to see the rest of girls and dismissed them by waving his hand.
Hua Qingxin could not get back to her home since the emperor had given the order. Her family members packed her belongings and sent to the palace, together with Maid Meng, her little maid.
