Chapter 840: Chapter 667: The Supreme Southern Emperor

Gu Changsheng’s words were as pitiful as they could get!

Reluctantly decided not to run away!

The prince’s entourage was all in tears, speechless and choked with sobs!

“Oh, and if anyone is interested in this position, feel free to come directly to me instead of going to the trouble of plotting a coup or something. It’s just too bad, and I’m such an easy-going person. If you have a request, I’ll definitely agree!” As everyone was on the verge of despair, Gu Changsheng tossed out this line.

In an instant, thunder rumbled, striking everyone in the hall and leaving them both scorched and tender!

How is she still talking about this?

Argh! How are we supposed to live as subjects like this?

Is there any emperor in history more out of line than this one?

What sins have they committed!

Just look at her, that endless hopeful expression for someone to want the throne. How undesired must the position of Southern Emperor be?

Tears flowed like a river for everyone!

To be honest, the position of Southern Emperor really isn’t something people are eager for, at least not for Gu Changsheng!

That hot potato she can’t even give away, if it were a coveted morsel, wouldn’t someone already fight over it? The fact that she can’t toss it away proves it’s really not welcomed!

The court officials were still wallowing in sorrow, while over there Gu Changsheng had already risen from the Dragon and Phoenix Chair, the flowing Red Brocade flashed as she stepped down, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of her own old dad and the little dumpling, taking the little dumpling from her old dad’s arms with indignation, and said with resentment, “Fine, I couldn’t cast away the throne. I’m in a bad mood and have decided to turn my grief into appetite!”

“Huh?” The little dumpling looked bewildered in his own mother’s arms.

Gu Changsheng raised her hand, pulled out the half chicken claw from his mouth, tossed it on the table, and, still disgruntled, called out to her old dad, “Let’s go, this mess food isn’t good at all. Let’s go to the harem for a special meal!”

Gu Taitian laughed helplessly, rose, and followed.

Just as they were about to enter the rear hall, Gu Changsheng turned back and addressed the kneeling crowd, “I’m leaving. You can now eat to your fill. Enjoy yourselves, don’t worry, there’s enough for everyone!”

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned to stone.

The comment was quite reasonable, provided they hadn’t heard the previous sentence!

Who would say it’s a mess and then tell them to enjoy it all!

The food was impossible to swallow!

The food was already awkward enough to swallow, and now it tasted like wax. Let alone filling, tonight’s palace feast was clearly a banquet of doom, doomed to leave them with empty stomachs and frustration as they went home!

Gu Changsheng, however, didn’t mind all this, holding her little imp and elf son, walking towards the harem, grumbling to her old dad with a discontented face, “Dad, did you see that? It’s a lousy job, those court officials bully people, what’s so good about being the Southern Emperor? You might as well be a bandit or plant trees!”

“One man’s poison is another man’s nectar; they don’t dare ask, only for the sake of the Witch and Gu Tribes’ future.” Gu Taitian, helpless.

“Nonsense! Life is too short to think long term. With all the natural disasters and calamities, who knows what the future holds. A thousand years from now, who knows what it will be like, they worry too much about nothing!” Gu Changsheng deeply despised the far-sightedness of her subjects.

Damn it, lineage and all that, most damn pitiful!

Her son inherited the Three Palaces, becoming a baby-making machine, and even more so herself!

Comparatively speaking, none is sorrier than the other, all are just equally ill-fated!

Hearing this, Gu Taitian’s expression turned a bit dazed, murmuring, “If one has no long-term worries, they will surely have short-term concerns.”

“All I know is to seize every moment of joy in life, the rest, to hell with it!” Gu Changsheng snorted, obviously having a different outlook than her old dad.

Gu Taitian looked deeply at his dazzling daughter, sighed, and said no more, with a weariness hidden in his aged demeanor.

Gu Changsheng didn’t notice, but even if she did, she’d probably brush it off.

As she said, she’s someone who cherishes the present, always feeling that thinking too far ahead is tiring, better to enjoy life to the fullest in the moment!

With the absence of the Southern Emperor at the palace feast, only a bunch of long-winded officials remained, blaming the heavens and themselves, while Gu Changsheng didn’t care and really went back for a special meal as she said!

In front of the magnificent halls of the Heavenly Palace harem, a circle of young female officials gathered, all newly selected from the Three Palaces and old ministers, the young beauties from the Southern Border Bashu.
