Emperor Chu naturally also noticed that the ministers looked at him as if they were looking at a mentally retarded person.
"..."
Emperor Chu smiled but didn't smile, he still had a gentle look on his face, but in fact he was scolding his mother in his heart.
How much Yun Ke has paid for Nanchu.
What's the point of being a long princess
Even if she is named the crown prince, that's what she deserves!
This group of people actually have the nerve to jump out and object
"Think twice, Your Majesty, how can the eldest princess confer the title at will, this matter has to be discussed in the long run."
"Lord Li is right. Your Majesty, the ministers can understand your desire to compensate this princess, but the title of eldest princess is still too heavy. Think twice, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Chu waved his sleeves, "No need to say more, I have already considered it very clearly. This matter has been decided, I just came to inform you, I have made up my mind, there is no need to persuade you."
Contrary to his past gentleness, Emperor Chu was extremely firm on this matter.
Then.
All the ministers listened to the ceremonial eunuch singing: "Princess Xuan Zhaoyang has an audience—"
Their eyes turned to the door.
The person who came was a woman, dressed in a dark red python suit made of brocade silk, wearing an embroidered spring knife, very luxurious. The waist is buckled with a jade buckle, which becomes thinner against the cut waist, and the back is straight, like a section of cedar on a high mountain.
Her long hair was tied up in a ponytail and hung high behind her head, and tied with a jade crown. She wore a silver mask on her face, revealing only her beautifully lined chin.
Through the mask, the pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes that were slightly inverted were even more stern.
The visitor walked up to the imperial steps step by step, bowed down, holding the jade wat in his hand, his voice was a little low, but very pleasant, it didn't sound like the sweetness of an ordinary woman.
"My son thanked my father."
All the ministers looked at the woman in front of them with wide eyes.
Someone has already spoken in a trance.
"...Xi and the princess?"
There were also those who held back and didn't speak, and the expressions on their faces clearly showed that they also thought the same way.
This woman is simply the real princess Xihe.
Although wearing a mask, the demeanor of the whole body is exactly the same as that of Xi and the princess. The same aloofness, the same imposing manner.
Women like Xi and Princess... It's rare to find one in a hundred years.
Well, how could this Princess Zhaoyang be so similar to her
Emperor Chu looked at his daughter with a smile.
"Zhaoyang, it's good to come back."
"My dear friends, Xihe sacrificed his life for the country, and my heart aches. However, God has treated me well, and at this time let me find my daughter who has been lost for many years. The talents of Zhaoyang are not inferior to Xihe, and you can do everything you can rest assured."
Ministers: "????"
Wait, Your Majesty, wait.
what do you mean
Could it be that Princess Xihe just left, and now Princess Zhaoyang wants to participate in politics
Do you treat your princes as dead? !
Well, their century-old foundation in Southern Chu is finally going to fall into the hands of a woman.
The ministers who retired expressed their heartache.
While drinking and voicing bitterness with his colleagues, he was asked why he didn't persuade His Majesty.
They said, persuaded.
But His Majesty won't listen, he won't listen! ! !
So far—
Southern Chu has an extra regent princess, who acts vigorously and decisively, contrary to the gentle style of the emperor of Chu, and the methods are almost harsh.
At the beginning, she had the backing of Emperor Chu, and then she subdued a group of counselors and loyal ministers with her own strength, completely gaining a firm foothold in the court of Southern Chu until her power spread all over the court and the public.
The deeds of the regent princess finally reached Yanjun's ears.
