The ministers of Heavenly Dragon could only anxiously watch their Emperor, never before have they so earnestly hoped for their Majesty to renege.
Another group of ministers eagerly looked towards Da Qing.
At first, they were proud of their Emperor's discerning eye, but now they fervently hoped that Da Qing would refuse.
As long as Da Qing was unwilling to marry off the Eldest Princess to Heavenly Dragon, then their Emperor's promise would naturally be of no consequence.
Yet, Emperor Longqing was uncharacteristically silent.
Initially, he intended to refuse, but after hearing the young Heavenly Dragon ruler's words, he suddenly withdrew the refusal he was about to speak.
No matter what the future holds, a moment where an Emperor can declare that he does not desire thousands in his harem, shows the weight Bao Chan holds in his heart.
He could find a talented and beautiful husband for Bao Chan in the future, and could use status to ensure he never takes a concubine.
