Great Qian Imperial Palace.
All the officials present were in disbelief.
Everyone thought they had heard wrongly.
The princess of the Great Qian Dynasty was actually going to marry a prince from another country as a concubine?
What a joke!
Was this a marriage alliance?
Are you sure you're not here to humiliate the Great Qian Empire?!
"Ninth Prince, what did you just say?”
"Is there a mistake?"
One of the ministers couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"I've already made it very clear that our East Parting Imperial Family must maintain a pure bloodline.”
"It is naturally impossible for a direct descendant to have the blood of another dynasty mixed in.”
the Ninth Prince said with conviction.
"Impossible!"
"This is absolutely impossible!"
"How can the princess of our Great Qian Empire marry into a concubine!”
An official couldn't help but shout angrily.
"Looks like the East Parting Dynasty is not sincere at all!”
"It's fine if we don't talk about this marriage alliance!"
Many other ministers were also indignant.
The Ninth Prince didn't mind. Instead, he sneered,"
"Are you sure you've thought it through?"
"Right now, many barbarians and alien races are stationed at the border of the Great Qian Dynasty. They are sharpening their weapons and ready to attack at any time!”
"If you don't ally with our Dongli Dynasty, can you resist?”
"It's just sacrificing a little princess in exchange for the friendship of our East Parting Dynasty. Why not?”
Many of the ministers 'faces turned ashen. They did not expect the other party to be so despicable to use such a method to threaten them!
The current situation at the border was indeed not good.
Once a war broke out, it would be extremely disadvantageous to the Great Gan Empire!
Regardless of whether the barbarians had the advantage or not, the other two Majestic Empires were eyeing them covetously, and they might take advantage of the situation!
As a result, the Great Gan Empire would be in an unprecedented crisis.
It was even possible to encounter a calamity!
If it was really that serious, then sacrificing a princess was indeed not too much.
"We can discuss this matter later."
Facing the ministers 'reactions, Lu Qingge remained calm. No one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing this, the Ninth Prince laughed in his heart.
The new emperor of the Great Qian Empire was indeed as weak and useless as the rumors said!
Logically speaking, even if the other party did not fly into a rage, he should not have a good expression.
But now, he had a 'pleasant' appearance.
The Ninth Prince of Dongli suddenly had an illusion.
Soon after.
The Ninth Prince and the envoy of the East Parting Dynasty temporarily settled down in the Imperial City.
He planned to wait a few days to see what the Great Gan Empire would decide.
On the second day.
The morning court session continued as usual in the Hall of Political Decrees.
From the beginning, many ministers had a heated discussion about the marriage alliance.
Not everyone was against it, but many ministers agreed!
"The Second Princess does not have any talent in martial arts. She hides in the palace all day long and plays with words.”
"By marrying the Dongli Dynasty, I can be considered to have made a contribution to the Great Qian Dynasty.”
"This is indeed killing many birds with one stone. With the strong joining forces, we naturally don't have to fear those barbarians.”
"The Second Princess marrying the Ninth Prince of the Dongli Dynasty is not considered a disgrace to her status.”
"I also agree with this marriage alliance!"
Everyone knew how powerful the Dongli Dynasty was.
Some ministers thought that from the perspective of the big picture, a marriage alliance was a good thing!
"Hmph, if she's the first wife, then so be it!”
"A princess of our Great Qian Empire is marrying into a concubine. Isn't this humiliating our Great Qian Empire?”
"In my opinion, the East Parting Dynasty has the ambition of a wolf and has no sincerity!”
Many ministers spoke righteously and were furious.
"Your Majesty, please consider the big picture!”
Some ministers were still remonstrating.
"The second princess sacrificed herself in exchange for the friendship of the Dongli Dynasty.”
"Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot agree to this!”
At this moment.
Behind the beaded curtain, the empress dowager said coldly,""What a racket."
His voice was not loud, but it instantly silenced all the ministers present.
It was enough to see the Empress Dowager's power.
"Let's listen to His Majesty's opinion.”
"This time, the Ninth Prince of the East Li Dynasty is threatening us. If we don't handle this well, the East Li Dynasty won't let this go.”
The Empress Dowager reminded him.
"There's no need to consider the matter of marriage.”
Lu Qingge's eyes were cold and sharp as she swept her gaze across all the officials present.
"Our Great Qian Dynasty has been developing for many years, but there has never been a precedent of marriage and seeking glory!”
"Only the weak will marry the strong!”
"If we agree to this, wouldn't we be telling the world that our Great Qian Dynasty is inferior to the East Parting Dynasty?”
"Moreover, he married the Second Princess as a concubine!”
"This is simply a great humiliation!"
Lu Qingge questioned everyone with an imposing manner.
"Zhen feels that you shouldn't ask for Zhen's opinion.”
"We should ask our ancestors of the Great Qian Dynasty and the warriors who are guarding the border!”
"Ask them if they agree to this!”
"Ask them if they agree to burn the reputation of the Great Qian Dynasty!”
The expressions of the ministers changed rapidly.
Unexpectedly, the new emperor's sudden question was like the wrath of the heavens, almost suffocating!
Moreover, these words were so righteous that there was no room for rebuttal!
The ministers who had agreed to the marriage earlier had extremely ugly expressions.
He lowered his head and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
If he continued to speak, he might be executed for treason!
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Your Majesty is truly a wise ruler!"
"Our Great Gan Empire does not need to show weakness to anyone!”
The ministers who opposed the marriage were so excited that their faces turned red.
Especially those generals, they felt their blood boiling!
Behind the beaded curtain, no one saw that the Empress Dowager's expression was rather unnatural!
She thought that this question would stump Lu Qingge.
In the end, he had no choice but to ask for help.
He never expected Lu Qingge to say such righteous words!
In an instant, he won the hearts of countless loyal officials!
