After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 224 The Mad Second Male Lead
How did Duan Qianze suddenly become like this?

[Guagua, what's wrong with him?]

I didn't notice anything different; it's just as he told you.

Fang Lingchu just wanted to roll her eyes.
[Sleep, sleep]

Then I went straight to sleep.

The next morning, I got up and opened the door.

Full of surprises.

A row of beautiful women stood at the entrance of her courtyard, next to the Empress's head maid.

Fang Lingchu slowly walked over, glanced at Cherry Mushroom, and then at the peach blossom beside her.

He looked at himself with a puzzled expression, wondering if he had misread the image.
Peach Blossom didn't understand why this was happening either.

Fang Lingchu: Isn't this the right one?
"Greetings, Your Highness! Long live the Princess!"

"Get up, Cherry Mushroom, what brings you here...?"

Fang Lingchu glanced at the row of men, then at Cherry Mushroom, somewhat disbelieving her own answer.

"Your Highness, this is a gift from His Majesty and the Empress."

"what!"

Fang Lingchu suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with her ears.

If she wasn't mistaken, these young men seemed to be sons of various powerful families!

"The princess is about to come of age, and these are the male concubines arranged for her."

Upon hearing these words, Fang Lingchu's heart finally died.

What exactly made the emperor misunderstand that he wanted to keep male concubines?
"It's not cherry mushroom, I didn't have it..."

Fang Lingchu was still thinking about it when she heard Duan Qianze's voice.

"Your Highness, are you bringing in a new bride so soon?"

Fang Lingchu: ...

No, what would he be doing here at this time?

Duan Qianze came in looking aggrieved and disappointed.

Fang Lingchu was completely stunned!

【No, what are Guagua and the others trying to do?! I want to be the female lead, not a fictional heroine!】

[Host, don't all female protagonists have male lovers?]

[I'm not here to be a stud. Besides, can you guarantee these men are all innocent, respectable men and women?]

Don't think Fang Lingchu didn't know that in ancient times, most men of this age couldn't control their lower bodies.

They were all respectable men, but Her Majesty the Empress meticulously examined each one of them.

【Wait, why go through all this trouble to do this for me?】

The Empress and Emperor thought you had suddenly become sensible and couldn't be fooled by a charlatan, so they arranged for you to be with all sorts of handsome men.

[Me? When did I ever like...?]

Fang Lingchu was about to retort when she saw Duan Qianze looking aggrieved, and she instantly couldn't say anything.

It's a huge misunderstanding.

She didn't, she's not.
"Duan Qianze, what are you doing here?"

Fang Lingchu's loud shout startled everyone.

"Princess, are you starting to dislike this old woman because you've seen your other brothers?"

Fang Lingchu: Are you guys crazy?!

"Duan Qianze, what are you doing here so early in the morning?"

"I heard someone from the princess's household has arrived. I've come to see if there's still room for me."

Fang Lingchu rolled her eyes at her.

"Who would come and not have a place for you? We've given you a courtyard to stay in; you won't be shortchanged."

"Really? Your Highness, the princess still loves me, doesn't she?"

"Can't you speak properly? Get out of my way!"

To others, their interaction appears as one person being mischievous and the other being doting.

The other men must be so jealous!
They all liked the princess very much, but the princess never smiled at them.

Cherry, standing nearby, noticed the way the young men were looking at her and her forehead... "Your Highness, why don't you take a look at these young men first!"

Cherry never expected to see such a grand spectacle here...

Fang Lingchu was abruptly pulled back by Cherry's words.

It seems I have no choice but to choose one today.

"Sister Cherry, I don't like any of them, so why don't you send them all back?"

Cherry's smile was even sweeter than before.

"No, otherwise you'll stay here?"

Fang Lingchu: With so many people staying here, will her princess residence even be habitable?

Let me see, let me see.

Fang Lingchu looked at the handsome men with a forced smile and had no choice but to give in.

【Guagua, I don't want a man】

Why wouldn't I want them? These men all seem pretty good; they're all potential second leads!

What? What second male lead?

Mo Yujia, the young master of Minister Mo of the Ministry of Rites, is 15 years old this year. He was suppressed by his elder brother since childhood. Later, he used his talent to become Minister of Rites and then killed the entire Mo family.

He then tenderly protected the female lead, ultimately dying at the hands of the Peach Blossom Kingdom because of her.

The second is Xia Xiuyong, the eldest son of Si Langzhong, who loves playing chess and is extremely skilled at it. He only likes romance and dislikes officialdom.

Because his mother died, the whole atmosphere was rather gloomy.

The third is Bu Xiangyu, the second son of Minister Bu of the Left Clan. He is ruthless, vicious, and insane. He is in love with his cousin, kills his cousin's husband, and then the story takes a tragic turn.

Fang Lingchu looked at all the people behind her, and each one was more abnormal than the last, and also more handsome than the last.

What the hell did the Empress send me? They're all second male leads!

【There's nothing I can do! The second male lead is just better looking! You just like good-looking guys, don't you?】

means something.

I didn't! I'm innocent!

It's useless for you to tell me; it's only useful if others know!

Fang Lingchu felt that if she accepted these men this time, she would never be able to clear her name again!

Therefore, I absolutely cannot choose a man today.

Just then, the daily tasks appeared again.

[Daily Task: Five male concubines: Bu Xiangyu, Xia Xiuyong, Yun Yonghuai, and Fu Fanyu. Reward: Ten gunpowder pellets]

Fang Lingchu: Right now, she feels like a million curses are running through her mind.

[Guagua, did you do this on purpose?]

[Host, these four are all insane second male leads, you need to keep an eye on them!]

[I knew it! Weren't there supposed to be five? Why are there only four?!]

Duan Qianze counts!

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu's vision went black and black again!

Okay, I admit it.

She really wanted that gunpowder!

My sister and Duan Shirui are about to go somewhere else, so having these things can at least protect me.

"The four of them stay, the rest take away."

Fang Lingchu closed her eyes and left the person the system had told her to stay.

Then he said to the butler, "Butler Shi, take them all away. They can do whatever they want with you."

"Is this Her Highness the Princess? What are the ranks of these gentlemen?"

"It's all the same, it's all the same, just make sure people are taken good care of."

She is a princess.

All four of them glanced at Fang Lingchu, then left.

They all heard her voice.

Although they stayed because of the system, at least they all left places they didn't like in the first place.

"Thank you for taking me in, Your Highness."
