Astute Princess: Married to be the Empress Novel - Chapter 164

Chapter 164 Court Dispute
At this moment, the Right Virtuous King finally came up with a clue. After glancing at the letter, he actually said, “Your Highness, are you going to abandon your own flesh and blood?” We in Ye Lan are all tough men. How can we let our children be the descendants of others and worship their ancestors? “Your Highness the Crown Prince, you should revive your majesty and lead the soldiers of Ye Lan to retrieve the Little Emperor’s grandson. No matter what, he is still the bloodline of our Ye Lan Imperial Family. How can he take someone else’s surname and become someone else’s descendant?”

However, before the Right Virtuous King could finish speaking, Huyan Mingshuo stared straight at him and asked, “Is that so?” According to Prince Youxian’s intentions, could it be that I’m going to lead the troops to attack them? And then let the whole world know that we are husband and wife, father and son killed each other? Let everyone know that I, Huyan Mingshuo, am ungrateful and can only share happiness and suffering, not wealth and honor? Saying that I, Huyan Mingshuo, am greedy for beauty and abandoned my original wife and children?

Besides, what if Hao Ze kowtowed to her Fu Clan’s ancestor? That was also his Outer Ancestor Clan, so why couldn’t he kowtow to him? Moreover, no matter what Haze’s surname was, Bengong was his father, and he was also the eldest son of the first wife of Bengong. This was a fact that no one could change.

Moreover, even if I lead my troops to subdue the Tianshui Kingdom now, what can I do if I take the position of the Lord of the World? Can you take out so many silver taels to fight against Tian Yizhuang? Can you think of a way to keep the situation stable?

Ten thousand steps back, even if this palace defeats their mother and son and takes the position of master of the world, Haoze, as the eldest son of the first wife of this palace, will naturally be the best choice for the crown prince. In the future, won’t this world be inherited by him? Now that Ying Ran has only pushed all of this forward by a few decades, why would I have to go all out to compete with my son?

Could it be that in the heart of the Right Virtuous King, war was like a child’s play? Do you know how many soldiers there are in every war, blood flowing into rivers and corpses wrapped up in horses? And are they not citizens of our Ye Lan? “Every soldier’s life and death is also related to the rise and fall of this family. Has the Right Virtuous King ever considered this?”

Listening to Huyan Mingshuo’s questions one by one, the Right Virtuous King was speechless. That’s right, how could anyone in the world force someone else’s father to attack his son? Not to mention, under his own unreasonable circumstances, he could only silently retreat to his seat and not say anything.

At this moment, the letter of credit was passed down in the hands of the officials. All the officials in the court were instantly unable to calm down. They all stood up and said, They all knelt on the hall, He said to Huyan Mingshuo, “I beg Your Highness the Crown Prince to come forward and ask the Crown Princess to give me a hand. Now that the countries have just suffered the devastation of war, they really cannot withstand the pressure of Tian Yizhuang again. If this continues, the world will be in chaos again. Doesn’t this betray the efforts of Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess over the years?”

Huyan Mingshuo chuckled and said to the crowd, “Heh, now you all know that the Crown Princess has put in a lot of effort. Did you ever think about how she felt when you were carrying us behind our backs in the imperial capital?”

Back then, when she gave up everything to help this palace calm down the world, you only lived a peaceful and leisurely life in the imperial capital. Now, the world has finally calmed down. It should be her time to enjoy her honor, but all you want to do is send your daughter and sister into the palace, share her fruits, and take away her husband. Have you ever thought about her feelings?

In this world, there is no such thing as obtaining without effort. When others are going through life and death, what you are thinking about is how to obtain your own benefits and how to seize the fruits of others’ victory. Do you think that your actions are the tough men mentioned by the Right Virtuous King?

From this palace’s point of view, such a method is no different from a thief. Now that you’ve brought the originally good situation to such an irreparable state with your hand, I, Ye Lan, actually want this palace to come forward and dictate things to him? Let her swallow her anger and accept your arrangements? Do you think that in this current situation, Fu Yingran would still be willing to see me and listen to me? ”

After hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, Everyone was also speechless. That’s right. In the current situation, the Crown Princess definitely doesn’t want to see anyone from the Yelan Imperial Family. The reason why she sent someone to deliver her credentials is only to inform the Yelan Kingdom. Your Yelan Kingdom’s royal grandson, Huyan Haze, will be Fu Haose from now on. He is a descendant of the Fu Family and the Emperor of Tianshui Kingdom. That’s all.

Thinking of this, the ministers could only retreat from their seats, lowering their heads and not looking at each other. However, there was still a person who continued to stand up and say, “What can this be good for?” Your Highness the Crown Prince, you have to make a decision, Let’s not talk about the other vassal states for now, “Let’s say that our Ye Lan Country has never been filled with treasury after several years of war. Now, for His Highness the Crown Prince’s ascension ceremony and the Consort Na ceremony, we have exhausted all of our treasury’s reserves. Therefore, the current Ye Lan Country can be said to be overstretched. It really cannot withstand the economic pressure of the Tian Yizhuang.”

Huyan Mingshuo listened, He couldn’t help but look up. He recognized this person, It was Minister of Household Affairs Lan Zheng, This was a good official who truly served the country and the people, After Huyan Mingshuo returned to the Imperial Capital, he did the same thing as Fu Yingran. He immediately sent people to investigate the situation in the Imperial Capital, especially the ministers who were currently in important positions. After all, once a son of heaven and once a minister, before he ascended to the throne, he had to know that the people in the Imperial Capital who could continue to be used had to be replaced.

Judging from the results of the subordinates’ investigations, This Lan Zheng was indeed a good official. Just as everyone in the imperial capital was busy currying favor with the old emperor and trying to fill the palace with women, only the Minister of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Lord Lan Zheng, was busy collecting silver taels everywhere to prepare for the daily expenses of the army after returning to China. After all, the daily expenses of these hundreds of thousands of troops were not small.

In the past few years of the war outside, it had been Tian Yizhuang who had been maintaining the normal operation of the entire army. However, now that the army had returned to Ye Lan, there was no reason for Tian Yizhuang to continue to provide for it.

Moreover, Yelan Country had actually not kept its promise and prepared for the Concubine Na Ceremony. Based on his understanding of dealing with Ying Ran, Lan Zheng already knew that if the Crown Princess knew everything about the imperial capital, she would definitely leave angrily. In this way, it would be even more impossible for Tian Yizhuang to provide any help to the Yelan army. Therefore, as Minister of Household, he had no choice but to forget to eat and sleep for the normal expenses of the entire Yelan army in the future.

It was precisely because he was thinking of the overall situation that Huyan Mingshuo looked at him differently. Therefore, after fooling Mingshuo to see that it was him again, his expression eased up a lot. He even softly said to him, “Minister Lan, how could I not know what I said?” However, there is nothing I can do right now. You all know the Crown Princess’ temperament. Once she decides, even ten cows will not be able to pull back. The so-called bell unlocking still needs to be tied to the person who untied the bell. This matter is caused by Na Fei. Unless you can cancel the Na Fei Grand Ceremony, everything will be in vain.

How could I not know, As things stand, If Tian Yizhuang continued to exert economic pressure, the whole of Ye Lan has returned to the strained situation of three years ago, However, since ancient times, there has been no joke. Since Father has come down to grant the imperial edict, there is absolutely no reason to change it. Unless those women give up on entering the palace, then this palace may be able to persuade the Crown Princess to return to Ye Lan. As long as the Crown Princess returns to Ye Lan, it will not be difficult for the Heavenly Villa to take back her life. ”

Huyan Mingshuo said, At the same time, he looked at the other ministers in the hall. Especially Mu Feng and his son, He thought to himself, if they could take the initiative to step forward and remove the consort that he had personally promised, then it would be easy for the others to say. That way, even if he did everything he could to bring Fu Yingran back to Ye Lan and resolve the current crisis, he could still continue to reuse Mu Army as usual. This could also be considered an opportunity for Mu Army.

However, to his disappointment, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, including the Mu Feng father and son, only lowered their heads silently and stood on the main hall. Unexpectedly, no one was willing to annul their marriage.

After all, it was not an easy task for Huyan Mingshuo to agree to Na Fei. If he gave up now, he would probably not have such an opportunity in this life. Out of selfishness, no one was willing to give up such an opportunity.

This sending a girl into the palace was related to the glory of their entire clan. It also meant that their clan would have a royal backing from now on. So what if the Yelan Kingdom could not rule the entire world? With Yelan Country’s own power, prosperity was within reach. However, if he gave up now, it would be tantamount to giving up a strong backing and an opportunity to rise to prominence. Therefore, it was understandable that no one was willing to say such a thing. After all, the Emperor’s woman was a shining golden identity.

Looking at the officials all over the hall, they remained silent. Huyan Mingshuo could only helplessly say to Lan Zheng, “Minister Lan, you saw it, “It’s not that I’m unwilling to show my face. I’m also powerless. Negotiations require conditions. Ye Lan is not willing to show any sincerity. What can you do for me? I know that you are also thinking about Ye Lan’s future. However, just the empty talk between you and me will not change anything. So, let’s listen to the will of the heavens as much as possible.”

After hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, Lan Zheng also looked at the crowd with disappointment. He did not know when Ye Lan’s monarchs and officials had actually become like this. They did not care about the overall situation at all. They had long lost the righteous nature of a Ye Lan warrior and became selfish. Didn’t they know? The so-called country, there must be a country before there can be a family. If the country is no longer guaranteed, then what kind of family glory will there be? He couldn’t understand why a group of iron-skinned grassland men had turned into selfish treacherous villains.

Looking at his colleagues who had been together for many years, He could only feel a chill in his heart. But no matter how disappointed he was, No matter how angry he was, he could not change the current situation. Therefore, he could only helplessly retreat back to his seat. He didn’t give a single glance at his eyes, nose, and heart. It was just like what His Highness the Crown Prince had said. This situation had already been created. Just him and His Highness the Crown Prince were useless. Everything could only be left to fate.
