Chapter 1: The Sixth Prince Chooses a Consort, and the Ninth Empress!
【Brain Storage】
Eastern Wasteland, Northern Territory.
The Great Qiankun Imperial Palace.
"Your Highness, the young ladies from the four great families have already entered the palace. His Majesty commands you to immediately proceed to Chengtian Palace to select a consort!"
The eunuch in red bowed deeply, looking with utmost respect at the young man reclining on the jade chair at the head of the hall.
"Choosing a concubine?"
On the jade chair, the young man, dressed in a brocade robe, had his silver hair cascading over his muscular, chiseled body. Upon hearing this, a slight look of surprise appeared on his perfectly sculpted face.
At this moment, he held a jade cup in his hand, and a moment of daze appeared in his bright, starry eyes.
His name is Gu Jiancheng, and he is the sixth prince of the Great Qian Dynasty in the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness.
At the same time, he was also a member of the transmigrating army.
Now, he has been in this world for almost eighteen years.
This world is different from Earth. The strong can fly through the sky and disappear into the earth, pluck stars and seize the moon. With a wave of their hand, they can turn the world upside down and cause the sky to collapse and the earth to cave in.
The weak, on the other hand, are only fit to be reduced to ants, their lives as worthless as grass, subject to bullying by others.
Fortunately, Gu Jiancheng was born into the royal family of the Great Qian Dynasty. Although he never obtained any cheat codes or activated any systems, he lived a life of luxury for eighteen years, pampered by his father, and was quite content.
More importantly, he was born with a perfect appearance that would make countless people envious and jealous.
By Blue Star's standards, his current temperament and appearance are far superior to those of Daniel Wu and Edison Chen.
But lately, a look of worry has been constantly on Gu Jiancheng's face.
Because he was about to turn eighteen, and after his coming-of-age ceremony, he was to go to the Tai Xuan Sect, which his father had arranged for him to cultivate.
Although he was born into royalty, he was born with a weak body and had no talent for cultivation!
The palace gates are like the sea. Even though he has acted like a playboy and arrogant for eighteen years, if he leaves the royal family and loses the protection of his father, the emperor, he is just a useless person, like an ant, easily crushed to death!
Therefore, even though he is surrounded by beautiful maids who massage his shoulders and legs, they still cannot smooth out his furrowed brows.
Is his carefree, womanizing life about to come to an end?
"Ding! The system has detected the appearance of the host's destined person. The marriage system has been activated!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the initial talent [Insightful Eyes]!"
【Insightful Eyes】: Seeing through the world, seeing through illusions, nothing can hide from the truth.
"Ding! Marriage quest triggered."
"Marry Yun Shuiyao, daughter of the Yun family, and you will receive a newbie gift pack from the marriage system!"
system!?
Holy crap, the system!
Heavens above, system, you've finally appeared!
In an instant, Gu Jiancheng, who had been slightly stunned, suddenly stood up from the embrace of the beautiful maids, as if he had been startled awake by a hammer, which startled all the beauties, causing them to tremble and their flesh to ripple like waves.
He waited eighteen years!
Does the system know how he spent those eighteen years?
Although he held a prestigious position, in this world where martial arts reigned supreme, he would have died countless times without his father's protection!
"Yes, Your Highness, the princes have arrived and are waiting for you!" The eunuch in red nodded.
"Change your clothes quickly! Change your clothes!"
Gu Jiancheng was overjoyed. Now that he had a system, he didn't care who Yun Shuiyao was. Even if she was a sow, he was determined to marry her today!
A moment later, Gu Jiancheng, dressed in luxurious brocade robes and looking radiant, strode into Chengtian Palace.
Meanwhile, inside this magnificent hall, an old man with a weathered face but an imposing presence like a fierce tiger sat on the dragon throne.
That was none other than Gu Chenyuan, the current emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty. His Core Formation Realm aura was so overwhelming that the three princes below him sat upright and even their breathing was extremely cautious.
Although the Great Qian Dynasty is a secular dynasty, it is still the absolute overlord within a hundred thousand miles of the Northern Region!
"Your subject pays homage to Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
Gu Jiancheng took three steps at a time and arrived inside the main hall, where he knelt down and bowed!
"Hehe, Sixth Brother, get up quickly."
"Tomorrow will be your coming-of-age ceremony. The four great families have also sent their precious pearls to the palace. Come and sit down, and choose carefully."
Gu Chenyuan looked at him with a doting expression and gestured for the eunuch beside him to place a golden chair next to him.
"Thank you, Father!"
Gu Jiancheng stood up and swaggered forward to sit down.
Although he was ranked last among the princes, he now sat at the head of the table.
This scene, witnessed by the other three princes, immediately filled them with secret anger and cold sneers.
The Emperor dotes on the sixth prince; everyone in the Great Qian Dynasty knows this.
Isn't it because his birth mother was the former Empress of the Great Qian Dynasty, who died after giving birth to him, that his father doted on him so much?
However, what they scoffed at was that after tomorrow, this sixth brother would be kicked out of the capital.
"Let them in!"
At this moment, as Gu Chenyuan's voice rang out, a fragrant breeze wafted in from behind the screen on the side of the hall, accompanied by the sound of jade pendants.
When Gu Jiancheng came to his senses, the young ladies from the four great families were already standing gracefully in the main hall.
Insightful Eyes, activate!
Gu Jiancheng silently recited this in his mind, and then felt a cool sensation fill his pupils.
When your gaze falls upon these four women, the character panel appears before your eyes, completely visible!
The first one.
Liu Ruyan
Realm: Qi Sea Realm (Second Realm of Cultivation)
Physical condition: Upper-grade common.
Note: The eldest daughter of the Liu family, the most powerful family in the Great Qian Dynasty, is eighteen years old.
Gu Jiancheng had heard of Liu Ruyan.
She was said to be the most beautiful woman in the Great Qian Dynasty, and now that I see her, her skin is indeed like jade and her face like a peach blossom.
Although Gu Jiancheng was a womanizer, he was only playing along. Such ordinary beauty was not worthy of his attention.
The two girls who followed were also from prominent families and were well-bred ladies, but their looks and talents were somewhat inferior to Liu Ruyan's.
They passed by together.
Finally, Gu Jiancheng's star-like eyes fell on the last woman.
Upon seeing this woman for the first time, Gu Jiancheng's heart was suddenly jolted, as if struck by lightning!
The woman was the tallest, and although she wore a plain dress, her purple hair cascaded down to her waist, her eyebrows were like spring mountains, her eyes like autumn water, and her skin was like solidified cream.
Her ethereal气质 (qi zhi, a kind of refined and otherworldly aura) was like that of a celestial being descended from the heavens.
However, the woman's face was covered with purplish-red scars, like a beautiful painting splattered with ink.
His expression was even colder, like a block of ancient ice.
【Yunshuiyao】
Cultivation: None.
Physical condition: None.
Note: She is the reincarnation of the Nine Netherworld Empress from the Upper Realm. Her imperial soul was sealed. Not long ago, she awakened the Nether Phoenix Spirit Body, but was secretly harmed by Yun Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Yun family. Her spirit body and life soul were forcibly stripped away, resulting in her dantian being shattered, her cultivation completely lost, and her appearance damaged.
The reincarnation of the Nine Netherworld Empress!
But after seeing the notes on the Yunshuiyao panel, Gu Jiancheng couldn't help but gasp!
As expected of someone with the luck of a transmigrator, and as expected of the system!
They actually sent the reincarnated empress right in front of him!?
Reincarnation can't beat someone with a system; that's an ironclad rule!
So what if my appearance is ruined? With the system in hand, why should I be afraid that my wife's beauty will be tarnished?
