From ancient times to the present, in every dynasty, there have been emperors who left the palace for east, south, or north tours, which is not surprising as it is a means for the ruling class to consolidate power.
But these emperors, whenever they traveled, generally stayed for one or two days, maybe four or five days at most. It is quite rare for someone like Chen Mo to stay in Chaoping County for over two months.
This is not an east tour at all; it is entirely for leisure.
The key is that Chen Mo brought all the concubines from the harem.
After listening to Wu Mi's words, Chen Mo fell into silence, unsure of how to respond to the ministers' advice.
Of course, the most crucial point is that he still wants to be a wise and capable ruler.
If he were to be a foolish ruler, it would be simple: indulge in pleasure all day, ignore state affairs, disregard officials' advice, and exile those who annoy him with their advice directly.
But he certainly cannot do that.
