Chapter 277 There are always people who like to make trouble
Minister Lin was extremely angry. This princess was very sharp-tongued and she actually used her own words to talk back at him.
"Your Majesty, I think Concubine Zhao is the most suitable candidate for the Queen."
Tang Xiluo glanced at them unhappily and said, "It's not about your opinion, it's about the emperor's own opinion. It's not you who are marrying a wife, so what's the point of your opinion?"
The ministers were angry but dared not say anything after hearing this. They had experienced how powerful this princess was. Besides, the prince was protecting them, so even if they were angry, they could do nothing.
Some people looked at Zhan Jingchen from time to time, hoping that he could control his wife. After all, she represented the face of the royal family. How could she quarrel with the ministers in the hall?
However, everyone's hopes were dashed. Not only did the prince not stop the princess, he even smiled at her with a doting look on his face.
Zhan Jingxuan couldn't help but cheer for the imperial sister-in-law in his heart. He had to rely on his imperial sister-in-law to take action at the critical moment!
The Queen Mother said nothing throughout the whole process. She really liked the children of Tangxi family. All of them were smart and virtuous.
But if Tangxi's legitimate daughter were to take the position of queen, wouldn't his family be the only one in power? The second legitimate daughter would be the princess consort, the legitimate daughter would be the queen, and the only male child would be made a general at a young age.
What worries me most is that Xuan Er, as the emperor, actually has a private affair. If the emperor is moved by love, he will inevitably show favoritism. I don't know whether this is good or bad...
Therefore, the best candidate for queen in the empress dowager's mind was actually Du Yan, the legitimate daughter of the right prime minister. It was neither Zhao Fei, the legitimate daughter of the left prime minister, nor Shi Fei, the legitimate daughter of the general, but the legitimate daughter of the right prime minister.
If the daughter of the right prime minister can enter the harem, then the left and right prime ministers can check and balance each other in the court. As for Concubine Shi, she can only be a noble concubine at best. It is not enough to rely on the checks and balances between the two parties. The three parties must be suspicious of each other and check and balance each other.
Du Yan has always had her own Chen'er in her heart. She has liked following Chen'er around since she was a child. If it weren't for the marriage arranged by the late emperor, she should have been the best candidate for Chen'er as the princess.
But it’s not too pity now, after all, she can still be my daughter-in-law.
"Right Prime Minister."
The Queen Mother suddenly spoke, and the right-hand man hurried forward and saluted, "What do you want, Queen Mother?"
"I remember that your daughter has reached the age of marriage, right?"
When the Right Prime Minister heard the Queen Mother's question, he had an idea in his mind that the Queen Mother wanted Yan'er to enter the palace and become the Queen!
It is said that her daughter knows it in her heart. Her heart is completely focused on the prince, so how can she be willing to enter the palace?
But as a father myself, I naturally hope that my daughter can live a better life.
The prince has already married a principal wife, so even if my daughter marries him, she can only be a concubine. To put it nicely, she is a concubine, to put it bluntly, she is just a high-level concubine. How can a father let his daughter suffer such an injustice?
Therefore, he hoped that his daughter could enter the palace and become the queen. Not only could she command the harem, but she would also be the emperor's legal wife. Even if there was no love between them, her life would not be too miserable. With him as her father, the emperor would give her some honor, and a life of wealth and glory would not be a problem at all.
It's better than going to the palace to be a concubine, not to mention that the empress dowager values her daughter so much.
"To reply to the Queen Mother, this old minister has been troubled by this matter recently."
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "What a coincidence. If that's the case..."
"Mother!"
Before the Queen Mother could finish her words, Zhan Jingxuan hurriedly called her.
Du Yan was also very nervous. She glanced at Zhan Jingchen from time to time, but the man didn't even give her a glance. The light in her eyes slowly dimmed.
But she still didn't want to enter the harem. There were three thousand beauties in the harem, but in the palace there was only this little bitch, the princess. Instead of competing with so many people, it would be better to compete with just one person.
What's so good about being a queen? So many people are trying their best to become one. Even if you sit on this position, who knows if you will be dragged down in the future.
Concubine Zhao, this cruel and ruthless woman, often used tricks against me before she entered the harem. She was so insidious and cunning, and there was no shortage of such people in the harem, so I didn't want to go at all.
Concubine Zhao was the daughter of the left prime minister, and she was the daughter of the right prime minister, so they were compared since they were young. But Concubine Zhao was deep-minded, and she had always said bad things about herself with those noble ladies in her heart...
I don't want to be with her at all. Yan Zi gets annoyed when she sees her.
"Dad!..." But don't talk nonsense.
The right prime minister sighed, and finally shook his head helplessly.
The Queen Mother frowned at this moment, and turned to look at Zhan Jingxuan with dissatisfaction, "Why did the Emperor call me?"
In fact, I know what he wants to do, but I can't help but feel a little angry. Doesn't he just want to give the position of queen to Tang Xirou?
But this is not just a family matter of his getting married, it is also a national affair after the election. This cannot be treated lightly, and one cannot be so reckless just because of love.
Tang Xirou has a gentle personality and is kind-hearted. She really cannot sit in that position. It is totally inappropriate!
Zhan Jingxuan couldn't refuse his mother's face in front of everyone, so he could only pass the pastry in his hand sideways.
"Mother, today's pastries are delicious, please try them." He blocked the mother's mouth with pastries so that she would not speak nonsense again.
The Queen Mother was very helpless. At this moment, the Emperor had given her enough face. If she did not step down, the two of them would be in a stalemate.
So she could only take the plate unhappily, put a small bite into her mouth pretentiously, and then gave a more pertinent answer.
“It tastes okay.”
Zhan Jingxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was really too difficult. He turned around and glanced at Tang Xirou and gave her a reassuring look.
But Tang Xirou was still very nervous and worried.
The Queen Mother saw all their little actions and in the end she could only sigh slightly, what a sin!
After Tang Xiluo saw that no one was making trouble, he slowly sat down.
According to my own guess, the emperor will not appoint a queen until my sister is fully grown, at least not in the near future.
Some people just like to make trouble and have to bring it up at this time. Their purpose is so strong that it is hard for people not to know.
Zhan Jingchen patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry, Luoluo, Xuan'er has grown up now."
Tang Xiluo shook his head, "You don't understand at all."
It's not these ministers who are blocking my sister's path, but the Queen Mother!
The Emperor is kindhearted and will be torn between his sister and the Queen Mother, so he can only wait and not crown the Queen.
But the longer time goes by, the more people can't help but want to make trouble, and every time they make trouble, everyone will be unhappy.
