When we look back at history after the fact, we often find that under the torrent of history, history is inevitable and also has a trace of contingency. However, this trace of contingency also brings history to a turning point...

Excerpt from-"The First Chronicle of the Empire-Retrospect and Reflection on the Dark Age of the Empire"

...

Just as people will decay, the country will also go to ruin one day. Even the prosperous imperial capital for thousands of years is just a corrupted hell on earth, arrogant and domineering everywhere.

On December 31, 996 of the imperial calendar, as the New Year approached, the entire imperial capital was filled with laughter and harmony.

The sky at night is cloudless, and the silvery moonlight is pouring on the earth. Although it is nightfall, the majestic palace in the center of the imperial capital is brightly lit...

It turned out that it was the time when the New Year was greeted. His Majesty the 199th Emperor of the Empire hosted a grand banquet in the palace and celebrated the arrival of the New Year with the nobles of the imperial capital and the many officials who returned to Beijing to report on their duties...

At this time, in the main hall of the palace, almost all the nobles and powers from the entire empire gathered. These nobles in gorgeous robes, some of them are generals, some are ministers, and there are prime ministers, there are marquises, earls... and some are dressed. The most luxurious and alluring evening dresses, some of them have bare white shoulders and half of their breasts, and are full of fragrant perfumed ladies. Among them are the duchess, marquise, countess... and more. Most are the daughters of those noble families.

The men with a smile on their faces were holding high-purity wines, each talking about the current situation, or talking about Fengyue, and the ladies also gathered together and talked about some "interesting" topics...

Suddenly, a majestic ritual music sounded, and a well-dressed court ceremonial officer stood at the entrance of the hall, opening his voice and loudly announcing:

"Everyone, please welcome the supreme ruler, the owner of the empire! Your Majesty the Emperor of the Empire is here!!"

With this loud voice, there was a hum in the main hall, and immediately fell into absolute silence!

The main hall is brightly lit and has been carefully arranged. The ceiling is inlaid with countless gems, emitting a shining light, and it shines like the day in the main hall!(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

As a middle-aged man with a majestic face slowly walked into the hall, he immediately heard the sound of a piece of robes, and on both sides of the hall, at least hundreds of male and female nobles in grand dresses stood!

When the middle-aged man took the first step into the hall, all of them dropped their heads deeply, and then knelt on one knee. No one dared to look up and look at the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man is the current ruler of the empire, the 199th emperor of the empire, His Majesty Anthony the Great, Antonio Gustin!

As His Majesty walked slowly to the high platform in front of the main hall and stood in front of a throne, he looked around slightly and looked at the harmonious atmosphere around him. His Majesty’s expression revealed a trace of satisfaction. Gently lifted his hands and pressed down slightly...

The band in the hall immediately stopped playing, and the cheerful atmosphere just now became solemn again.

Soon, a court waiter next to him brought a golden cup, and His Majesty the Emperor picked up one. Everyone understands that this is the beginning of the toasting ceremony.

"Long live the empire!"

Although the voice is not loud, it is full of majesty to others. Everyone obediently picked up the wine glasses around them and raised them high. Hundreds of people responded loudly:

"Long live the empire!"

"May the imperial nation prosper, and the imperial flag will fly forever."

Immediately after that, the majestic complexion of our Emperor finally showed a smile, and then raised the wine glass, moistened his lips and said loudly.

When the toast was over, it was the beginning of tonight's banquet ball. With the sound of the beautiful music, everyone in the room looked at His Majesty the Emperor on the high platform...

According to tradition, the first dance music should be performed by His Majesty the Emperor and the Queen. In the melodious and soft dance, His Majesty the Emperor walked to his seat with a calm smile and owed the queen sitting next to him slightly. Leaning, stretched out his hand gracefully.

The queen is thirty-two years old this year. She looks much younger than her actual age. She has a gentle and charming appearance, quiet and elegant. From the looks and temperament, she has a somewhat graceful and elegant temperament. A very gentle and virtuous woman, she was married to the emperor who was still a prince when she was sixteen. She has a kind and gentle personality, and she has no ambitions. She is a peaceful and beautiful woman.

The only slight flaw is that, as the true wife of the empire, the queen's family is slightly shabby. Of course, this is also relatively speaking. She was not from a poor family, and she was also a local aristocratic family in the south. The family had a little power, but at best, she could only be regarded as a third-rate aristocratic family in the empire.

This is also the reason why the many nobles and ladies present were very disdainful after seeing His Majesty the Emperor holding the Queen's hand and walking off the court.

In fact, birth is only a secondary reason. The main reason is that our gentle and lovely Queen has been married to His Majesty the Emperor for 16 years, but her belly is very unbelievable, and she has not been the Emperor. The birth of a son and a half daughter, this is unacceptable to the empire's senior management...

It is precisely because the queen did not give birth to an heir, the minds of the empire’s senior executives have also become active. Each family has contributed their daughters to the palace. They also called it for the future of the empire. It's all for their own interests. You think, if the future emperor has half of his family's blood, then the reward will be more than just a little bit that can be imagined to support the prince in the first place...

In fact, our Queen is also very anxious. The queen is gentle and kind, but this does not mean that she is a fool. On the contrary, she is still a very clever woman. She also understands political compromises and other things very well, but There is really no way to lose your stomach. Although the emperor loves the queen very much, he always needs to balance the major forces of the empire, so that sometimes he has to go to the palace daughters of other families.

But it is also because the emperor’s majesty sometimes rains and dews, which led to the fact that other concubines actually gave birth to several princes and princesses at this time, which also made the voice of abolition in the empire more and more. high……
