For an emperor, having a harem was entirely normal. Yet he had refused to remarry for the sake of his mother.
That kind of devotion was deeply moving.
"Then what about the affairs of the state?"
"Now that you have returned, no matter what, I will make you the ruler of Dongyue."
"Me?" Yue Mingxuan pointed at himself, his face filled with disbelief.
He had never seen such a free spirited emperor before.
In this era, it was clearly not one where Ger or women ruled.
"Yes. In the past, I did not think this way either. But over the years, I have seen how much you have changed. You have your own understanding of governance. And you know how disappointing your brothers are. So making you the ruler is not a decision made on a whim."
Seeing the serious expression on his father's face, Yue Mingxuan was instead left stunned.
It was not that he lacked the ability to lead a nation, but he had never once entertained such thoughts before.
