Luo Ningshuang's heart sank, but there was no fear on her face. She replied calmly,""Not bad!"
He heard a clear answer.
Xue Li was shocked. He quickly withdrew his aura and revealed an apologetic smile.
"Yes!"
Luo Ningshuang replied calmly. She did not know why Xue Li was so excited when he saw this dragon pattern jade pendant.
Presumably, all of this had something to do with His Highness!
That's right, just as she thought.
Eight years ago.
The position of Left Prime Minister was vacant, and countless officials were eyeing this position.
Xue Li was an Imperial Censor, supervising the civil and military officials. His position was high and powerful, but he was still quite a distance away from the position of Left Minister.
There wasn't a single person in the Imperial Court who didn't want to advance, even Xue Li.
He was an elder of the court and had a lot of experience. He was completely qualified to compete for the position of Left Minister.
However, it was not an easy task to become the Left Minister.
Seventy percent of the officials had to recommend him to the imperial court, and his cultivation had to be at the emperor level.
The first condition was still acceptable, but the second condition was difficult for many officials.
Xue Li still remembered that when he was worrying about this matter, a mysterious person suddenly came looking for him.
The other party had given him an opportunity to help him break through to the Emperor Realm.
Apart from that, on the second day of court, 70% of the officials recommended him as the Left Minister.
Even many of his sworn enemies agreed.
Even though Xue Li found it inconceivable, he had indeed become the Left Minister effortlessly.
All these years, he had been puzzled. Who was that mysterious person back then and why did he help him?
He had even secretly used a lot of power to investigate the whereabouts of the mysterious person, but there had been no clues.
He did not expect that after eight years, the other party would actually come looking for him.
What was even more unexpected was that this mysterious person was the Ninth Prince?
It seemed that he had to find the Ninth Prince and ask him about it when he had time.
In the main hall.
For a moment.
Xue Li was silent. After a long time, he looked at Luo Ningshuang and thanked her,"
"It was all thanks to the Ninth Prince that I was able to become the Left Minister.”
"Today, the Ninth Prince sent you to look for this minister. If there is anything you need help with, this minister will not decline!”
As soon as he said this.
Luo Ningshuang was stunned and her face was filled with disbelief.
Back then, Xue Li was able to become the Left Minister because of His Highness 'help?
How was this possible?
Xue Li had become the Left Minister eight years ago, but eight years ago, Su Changsen seemed to have been ten years old.
At the age of ten, he was able to control all the civil and military officials in the court and appoint a country's prime minister.
Luo Ningshuang simply could not believe all of this. If these words had not come from Xue Li's mouth, she would have thought that he was lying to her.
However, she did not forget the purpose of her visit this time. She hurriedly said,"His Highness wants the Prime Minister to write a memorial!”
Before Luo Ningshuang could finish speaking, Xue Li waved his hand and said heroically,""Not to mention one, even ten portions won't be a problem!”
Luo Ningshuang did not get angry when she was interrupted. She only smiled and said,""Lord Left Minister, this memorial is not ordinary.”
Hearing this, Xue Li frowned slightly. He raised his eyes and asked in surprise,"What's so special about this memorial?"
"His Highness does not wish for the alliance between the Great Qian Dynasty and the Great Li Dynasty. He hopes that the Left Minister will write a memorial to the Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty to withdraw the imperial edict and reject the marriage!”
"This…"
Xue Li's face was filled with astonishment as he said in a solemn voice,"This marriage alliance is no small matter. His Majesty has already agreed. The Emperor is not joking.”
"As for the marriage alliance, Minister Zuo will do his best. Your Highness will make the rest of the arrangements. Ning Shuang will take her leave first!”
Luo Ningshuang cupped her hands and turned to leave.
Looking at the other party's departing figure, Xue Li's gaze was heavy, and a hint of doubt appeared on his face."The benefits of a marriage alliance outweigh the disadvantages."
"How can the Ninth Prince be so irrational? Isn't he afraid of angering His Majesty?”
Xue Li's fingers were in deep thought as he tapped the table. Then, a smile appeared on his face.
"In any case, I only need to write a memorial to Your Majesty. As for whether it succeeds or not, it has nothing to do with me!”
To him, this was just a small matter, and he had repaid the favor he had done back then.
He was naturally willing to kill two birds with one stone.
After Luo Ningshuang left the Prime Minister's residence, she went to the residences of a few ministers.
Not long after, he returned to the Prince's Mansion and told Su Changshen what had happened.
Su Changsen nodded and looked at the palace coldly. He sighed and said,"
"I hope it doesn't end up in a situation where father and son are enemies!”
Su Changshen muttered to himself with a hint of worry in his eyes.
Ever since he was born, he had only met Emperor Qian a few times, so he didn't have much feelings for him.
Since ancient times, the royal family had no kinship. This sentence was the most appropriate to describe it.
Compared to his younger sister, Su Xuan 'er, who shared the same mother as him, her position in his heart was much more important.
Just as Su Changshen was deep in thought.
In the depths of the Great Qian Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Garden.
In the imperial garden.
A hundred flowers bloomed, and there were brilliant purples and reds.
Su Xuan 'er wore a long pink dress and sat in the garden with a worried expression.
"Your Highness, are we really not going to tell the Ninth Prince about the marriage?”
The female servant at the side couldn't help but ask when she saw Su Xuan 'er's expression.
"No need. Telling Imperial Brother will only add to his troubles. It's a pity that Imperial Brother will never be able to eat Xuan 'er's osmanthus cakes again!”
Su Xuan 'er muttered to herself, tears appearing in her eyes.
At this moment, a dignified and domineering figure strode in.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Seeing the newcomer, the maids in the imperial garden were terrified. They knelt down and shouted in unison.
"Yes!"
The Emperor of Great Qian, Su Tianyu, nodded slightly, and his figure slowly came before Su Xuan 'er. With a dignified expression, he said,"
"Seven days later, you will be married to the Crown Prince of Dali. You are to stay in the palace these days and not go out!”
"Good!"
Su Xuan 'er's body couldn't help but tremble as she lightly nodded her head.
Seeing that the other party had nodded in agreement, Emperor Qian's dignified face instantly softened.""Don't blame Imperial Father. Imperial Father is only thinking for the sake of the Great Gan Empire!”
"I don't blame Imperial Father. As the Imperial Daughter, Xuan 'er had long expected this day to come. I only hope that Imperial Father can take good care of Imperial Brother after I leave!”
Su Xuan 'er sighed, but her words didn't seem to blame Emperor Qian.
She was born in the royal family and had heard and seen things since she was young. She knew about the marriage alliance, so she had long expected this day.
"Don't worry, Changsheng is my son after all. After you marry into Dali, I will definitely take good care of him!”
Emperor Qian nodded and agreed.
"Imperial Brother, this is the last thing Xuan 'er can do for you!”
Hearing these words, Su Xuan 'er heaved a sigh of relief.
At that moment, there was a flurry of footsteps. The old eunuch, Han Shiwen, came to Su Tianyu with a solemn face.
"How can you be so flustered!"
Emperor Qian coldly glanced at the old eunuch before smiling at Su Xuan 'er,"Xuan 'er, rest well. Imperial Father still has some matters to attend to, so he'll be leaving first!”
After saying that, Emperor Qian walked out of the imperial garden with Han Shiwen following closely behind.
"What happened?"
After they walked out of the imperial garden, Emperor Qian's aura became heavy. He looked at the other party indifferently and asked coldly.
"Your Majesty, this is bad. Just now, the ministers of the court jointly submitted a memorial asking Your Majesty to withdraw the imperial edict.”
The old eunuch replied with a trembling body.
"Impudent!"
Emperor Qian was startled, and then he said furiously,"
"The Emperor is not joking!"
"I have already issued an edict, so there is no possibility of taking it back. Are these ministers trying to defy the edict?”
"Your Majesty, the Left Minister is also on the list of officials who have submitted the memorial. Other than that, the ministers who have submitted the memorial account for almost 50% of the officials in the court!”
The old eunuch hesitated as he looked at the furious Emperor Qian.
He knew very well what this memorial represented. The more he knew, the less he dared to delve into it.
"Interesting!"
Emperor Qian didn't get angry when he heard that. Instead, he laughed. It was as if a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood had appeared in the depths of his eyes."There are indeed many capable people in the court!”
His voice was calm, but the old eunuch beside him was trembling. He felt a sense of oppression from the depths of his soul.
When the emperor was angry, corpses would float for thousands of miles.
The officials in the court are forcing the abdication!
Weren't they afraid that Emperor Qian would be enraged and start a purge?
Thinking of this, the old eunuch felt a chill run down his spine and broke out in a cold sweat.
Who was the person behind the ministers?
