Hey lovelies.. welcome to my new story.... I don't know why I am writing this when my other stories are still pending
Author ❤
I don't know... may be my mood swings that my mind suddenly started building a new story instead to finish other.... but chill don't worry.. I will complete those stories too.... just wanted to write this one too
Author ❤
If it won't work then may be I will delete... can't say... so yeah... let's start..... it's just a fictional story so yes anything is possible here. without any reason and logic 😂
For more than two centuries, the Great Kim Empire ruled the continent with unquestioned authority.
Its armies guarded the borders like iron walls. Its trade routes connected distant kingdoms.
And at the center of it all stood the Imperial Palace, a vast city of gold roofs and towering walls that symbolized the power of the throne.
But power did not come without complications.
In the Great Kim Dynasty, the emperor did not rule alone. Behind every throne stood powerful noble families, military generals, and ambitious ministers.
To keep these forces balanced, the dynasty followed an ancient tradition.
The emperor must maintain a royal harem. Not for romance but
For politics.
Each consort represented a noble family. Their presence in the palace ensured loyalty, alliances, and stability within the empire.
Every 3 years, the palace would host a grand event.
The Imperial Consort Selection Ceremony.
Concubines can be added at any time, there is nothing special about adding them
but Consorts are noble so it's celebrated as like a festival.. a grand one
For many noble families, it was the greatest honor their household could achieve.
For the chosen candidates, it meant luxury, influence, and the possibility of becoming the most powerful consort in the empire.
That was how it was supposed to feel.
The current ruler of the Great Kim Empire was Emperor Kim Taehyung.
He ascended the throne three years ago at the age of eighteen after the sudden death of the previous emperor.
At the time, many ministers quietly worried about the future of the empire....A young emperor often meant instability.
They assumed the young prince would rely heavily on the court.
Within a single year of his reign, Taehyung had crushed a noble rebellion in the southern provinces.
Within two years, he restructured the imperial army and dismissed several corrupt officials.
By the third year, the court had learned something very important.
Emperor Kim Taehyung was not someone easily controlled. and now at age of 21 he is the well established and self proven successful Emperor....

Do like and comment... let's see how this book works
Emperor Kim Taehyung
Emperor Kim Taehyung was not someone easily controlled. He ruled with sharp intelligence and unsettling calm.
He rarely raised his voice.
But when he made a decision… No one dared oppose it.
Among the people of the empire, however, a completely different rumor spread.
Their emperor was extremely handsome.
Some even claimed that during royal ceremonies, half the court secretly forgot to listen because they were too busy staring at his face.
Of course, no one would ever say such things in front of the emperor himself.
Especially not today. ...Because at this exact moment, the emperor was sitting on the dragon throne during morning court…
Discussing something he disliked very much.
The grand court hall was silent except for the calm voice of Prime Minister Choi.
Prime minister Choi
Your Majesty, preparations for the Imperial Consort Selection Ceremony have been completed.
Rows of ministers knelt in perfect order across the polished marble floor.
At the front of the hall, Emperor Taehyung sat on the dragon throne, looking… bored.
Not annoyed....but Just deeply bored.
He lazily rested his cheek against one hand while listening.
Prime minister Choi
Thirty-six candidates from noble families have arrived in the capital,
The prime minister continued.
Prime minister Choi
Their families are among the most influential in the empire.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Thirty-six?
The emperor slowly straightened in his seat.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
That sounds like a festival.
The ministers looked confused. Taehyung continued calmly.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
A festival where thirty-six people try to impress me.
A few ministers coughed awkwardly. Prime Minister Choi maintained his professional expression.
Prime minister Choi
Your Majesty, this tradition ensures political balance.
Prime minister Choi
Each consort represents a powerful household.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
That sounds exhausting.
The ministers exchanged awkward glances.
Prime minister Choi
Your Majesty, maintaining a strong harem is important for political balance and tradition too
He again try to say those words to make emperor take them seriously
Taehyung tilted his head slightly.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
So I must entertain thirty-six people to keep the empire stable?
The hall fell silent.....One brave minister quickly said,
Minister
It is the tradition of our dynasty.
Taehyung leaned back against the throne...His dark eyes scanned the court slowly.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Interesting tradition.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
How many consorts did my father have?
Minister
Seventy-two, Your Majesty.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
For political stability?
Minister
Yes, Your Majesty.

The condition
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
I barely have time to finish my paperwork.
Taehyung rubbed his temple for sometime.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
And out of 72, how many of them actually liked him?
The emperor chuckled quietly. The sound made several ministers sweat nervously.
Finally Taehyung waved his hand dismissively.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Relax. I’m not abolishing your beloved system today.
The ministers secretly breathed in relief.
Then Taehyung added with a faint smile,
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
But let’s simplify the selection criteria.
Prime Minister Choi blinked.
Prime minister Choi
What does Your Majesty mean?
Taehyung looked almost bored as he answered.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Choose the candidates you want.
The ministers looked confused.
Taehyung continued,
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
But if they’re boring, send them home
The hall froze. Prime Minister Choi carefully asked,
Prime minister Choi
Boring, Your Majesty?
Taehyung’s lips curved slightly.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Yes.
He rested his chin on his hand again.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
If I must share my palace with them
His gaze turned thoughtful.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
They should at least be interesting.
After Taehyung’s line about wanting “interesting” consorts. The ministers exchanged uneasy glances.
No one dared ask what exactly the emperor considered interesting.
Prime Minister Choi bowed deeply.
Prime minister Choi
As Your Majesty commands. The selection ceremony will begin this afternoon.
Taehyung gave a small nod.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Good.
He stood from the dragon throne, long robes flowing behind him.
The court officials immediately lowered their heads.
But just before leaving the hall, Taehyung paused. His voice echoed calmly through the chamber.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Prime Minister.
Prime minister Choi
Yes, Your Majesty?
Taehyung looked back slightly.
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
If all thirty-six candidates behave like proper statues…
Kim Taehyung - King (A)
Send them all home.
The ministers froze...Then the emperor walked away as if he had just discussed the weather.
Leaving the entire court in silent panic.
obviously Taehyung is not at all interested in increasing the Harem or taking in any consort...
so he gave this tough condition to the ministers.
while on other hand, ministers were sweating..... why?????
because how would they know what does "interesting" exactly means!!
How on earth they can choose "interesting" Consort when they themselves don't know what their king meant by "interesting".
Author ❤
So.. be happy guys... this Emperor Taehyung here is not a manwhore to keep adding concubines and consorts.... a bit different king from usual kings of that time..
