"Yes, Your Majesty. The little eunuch who got the order came to the palace wall and told the emperor everything he saw, and the emperor's eyes, which were originally closed, opened them all the way with a half-squint.

The palace maids who approached obviously felt the murderous aura of the emperor, and continued their work tremblingly.

"Come on, come on, make such a noise. After saying this, the emperor walked towards the main hall of the early dynasty.

After the routine business was completed, the emperor looked at the ministers.

"Something to do, nothing to retreat. The eunuch saw the emperor's eyes, cleared his throat and shouted to the ministers below.

Just as the emperor was about to get up and leave, General Zhennan stood up.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to do. ”

The emperor looked at General Zhennan, and since the early dynasty, General Zhennan's sense of existence has been reduced to zero, and he knows that this old man will definitely do something.

Say. ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the crown princess chosen this time is not suitable. General Zhennan bent down and saluted respectfully to the emperor.

"Oh, what's the matter, General Zhennan is not satisfied with the decision of me and the crown prince?" the emperor said in his heart, sure enough, you are here for this matter, you old horseman.

"The minister didn't dare, the minister just thought that Cai Shishi still had to think carefully about this. ”

The emperor didn't say a word after hearing this, and the atmosphere in the court immediately cooled down.

"Your Majesty, the selection of the crown princess is related to the royal face, and as the daughter of Cai Shishi and Shangjia, I am afraid that she will not be able to appear on the stage, and she will be laughed at by the world. ”

General Zhennan's implication is that if the prince really marries Cai Shishi as his concubine, then it will be tantamount to lowering the level of the entire royal family, because Cai Shishi alone makes the world laugh at His Royal Highness the Prince.

How could the emperor not know about this little abacus played by General Zhennan? Just waiting for you to take the bait.

"I think Cai Shishi's child is not bad, it just so happens that the emperor also likes it, let the young people do the young people's affairs. The emperor's face was obviously impatient, but at this time, the emperor could still talk to General Zhennan calmly.

It's a pity that General Zhennan doesn't plan to stop trying to persuade the emperor.

"Your Majesty, please think twice, the crown princess is related to our country, if it is so by the will of His Royal Highness the Prince, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, and with Cai Shishi's status, he will not be able to take charge of the East Palace. ”

General Zhennan's words were already very unkind, and those ministers from humble backgrounds didn't dare to speak at all, and General Zhennan's eyes swept into the crowd, and the following discussion began.

"What General Zhennan said really makes sense. ”

"Yes, Cai Shishi's identity is indeed too low, I am afraid that she will be laughed at by the world, and I think that any kind of person can be the crown princess. ”

Listening to the sound of discussion behind him, General Zhennan was still very satisfied.

As long as the ministers began to discuss, this invisibly gave the emperor a pressure, a pressure to reconsider this decision.

"What the general said also has some truth, but this result has already been announced to the world, and if it is changed again and again, I am afraid that it will be laughed at by the world. ”

The emperor still chose to reason with General Zhennan calmly.

When ordinary people hear the emperor say this, they have already accepted it when they see it, but if they don't do it, their heads will fall to the ground after a while.

But General Zhennan has military merits, and the emperor has no way to do anything to him, if he loses his temper in front of the ministers, I am afraid it will chill the hearts of those old people.

After weighing it, the emperor still chose to continue to deal with General Zhennan.

"Your Majesty, if Cai Shishi is really crowned as the crown princess, then the entire royal family will really be laughed at by the world, please think twice!"

General Zhennan bowed to the emperor again as he spoke, making the emperor very unable to come to the stage.

Just when the emperor and General Zhennan were in a stalemate, Concubine Yan came in.

When the emperor saw the empathetic and eloquent Concubine Yan coming, it was as if he had seen a savior.

Who knew that the emperor was about to ask Concubine Yan to persuade General Zhennan to say a few words, and Concubine Yan knelt down for the emperor with a plop.

"Ai Concubine, who are you?" the emperor was a little confused.

"Your Majesty, General Zhennan's words about the crown princess are reasonable, please think twice. ”

As soon as Concubine Yan said this, the emperor's face immediately showed dissatisfaction, but the emperor knew that it was wrong to choose Cai Shishi, and it was "right" for them to have opinions.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. As soon as Concubine Yan took the lead, more officials stood up.

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Some people were emotional and shouted to the emperor painfully, and some people were respectful, as if they were out of the matter.

The emperor looked at the large number of officials kneeling, and his heart became heavier and heavier.

"Are you all dissatisfied with this result?" the emperor said slowly after being silent for a while, and there was no emotion in his tone.

"Your Majesty, Cai Shishi's daughter being the crown princess is really detrimental to the national body, and I invite the emperor to three or four. General Zhennan continued.

"Then what do you say, what am I going to do?" the emperor asked, looking at these officials with heartache on their faces.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has an idea. "It's General Zhennan again, the emperor is sneering in his heart, but he still gives enough face to General Zhennan.

"Aiqing, please speak. "Those who are familiar with the emperor know that the emperor is really angry at the moment, but he is very calm.

"I also ask the emperor to re-plan a concubine selection ceremony and choose a suitable princess for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. General Zhennan said to the emperor without changing his face.

The emperor suddenly laughed, the louder he laughed, and this laughter made Concubine Yan's heart tremble.

But thinking that if Yan Ruyu couldn't become the crown princess, her future status would be unsafe, and Concubine Yan secretly cheered herself up, and she must win His Royal Highness the prince at this level.

In this way, the Yan family can return to the top, instead of being in this embarrassing position now, unable to go up and down, and being suppressed by the queen's family.

"Re-planning, the money for the selection of concubines, you will pay?" the emperor asked as if he had heard a big joke, looking at the ministers one by one.

Choosing a concubine once costs a lot of money for the royal family, and these people now let the emperor choose again, which means spending more money.

"If the emperor is worried about the extravagance and waste of choosing a concubine again, the old minister is willing to take out his own one-year salary, just to save the face of the royal family!"

General Zhennan's words were sincere, and outsiders heard that he was really a good general for the country and the people, which made people feel very excited.

"Okay! It would be great if General Zhennan was worried about me. ”
