Chapter 201 Thank you
"Your Majesty, the princess has reached the age of marriage. I think it is time to help her find a marriage."
In the court, someone stood up and made such a suggestion, and Xiahou Chunan's face was somewhat moved.
Logically speaking, if Chu Xiaoran could marry someone he valued, then even if the throne was given to him in the future, he would still have people he could mobilize.
Xiahou Chunan was thinking the same thing in his heart, but unexpectedly, Shi Yinsheng next to him stood up.
"Your Majesty, I think His Royal Highness the Princess should decide her own marriage. We cannot let him fail to follow in His Royal Highness the Prince's footsteps."
As soon as Shi Yinsheng stood out, the whole court was filled with an oppressive atmosphere. The people around him didn't dare to speak and could only stand by and listen to their conversation.
Xiahou Chunan looked at Shi Yinsheng, who was standing with his back straight in front of him, with a complicated look in his eyes.
I trust her the most on weekdays and think she is the person who understands me the best. Why is she suddenly standing up and singing against me?
"So, according to the Prime Minister, I cannot interfere in my nephew's marriage?"
"What the Prime Minister said is too inhumane. The eldest prince was killed by a traitor because he was trying to avoid marriage. Now he is dead in a foreign land. I think Lord Li is right. It is time to arrange a marriage for the princess, so that she can have a place to go."
I don't know who stood up to refute Shi Yinsheng. When he said these words, it seemed as if he was just a spectator and didn't care at all about what would happen if a marriage was arranged for Chu Xiaoran.
When Shi Yinsheng heard these nonsense, the veins on her face bulged. She clenched her sleeves tightly with both hands, not caring whether it would make her court dress wrinkled.
"I think what Li Aiqing said makes sense. The Prime Minister can actually say such a thing. Why don't you give some reasons and let the ministers listen to whether it is worthwhile and feasible?"
"Your Majesty, what you said may not be right. Think about it, the eldest prince was also very opposed to the marriage arranged by the royal family, so he tried every means to escape. Now, Your Majesty also wants the princess to follow the example of the eldest prince?"
Xiahou Chunan has always thought that the Prime Minister is on her side, but now she is the one who is singing against her, so what exactly does she want to do?
"So now I want the Prime Minister to give me an explanation."
"I think this matter must be handled step by step. We can't hold a wedding for His Royal Highness the Princess so early. It will only make him feel that His Majesty is not interested in him returning to his country, but wants to use him to form cliques for himself."
Normally, men of the royal family would have to marry a foreign princess. Shi Yinsheng naturally knew Xiahou Chunan's purpose, but she was so anxious that it would only expose her own purpose. Even if it was proposed by the ministers, so what?
How would Chu Xiaoran feel if he heard about these things?
Su Qing naturally thought so too, so he stood up and bowed to the emperor in front of him.
"What the Prime Minister said makes sense. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
Shi Yinsheng glanced indifferently at the person standing behind him. He just wrote a letter to tell the Shangshu Mansion that the legitimate son was in his hands. Could it be that he was afraid that he would kill him?
You think too highly of yourself.
A sneer appeared on Shi Yinsheng's lips. The people in the court were the most opportunistic. Some of them were fence-sitters who would fall to either side when the wind blew.
"Okay, okay, since the Minister has said so, I will think about this matter carefully. Is there anything else? If there is nothing else, then I will withdraw."
"Farewell to Your Majesty."
With the support of his servants, Shi Yinsheng walked out of the Tai Chi Hall and happened to bump into Su Qing.
"Thank you for what you did just now, Lord Shangshu."
"You are welcome, Prime Minister. I am still a guest in your house. I hope you can take good care of me."
"When your health improves in a few days, I will personally send you back."
"Then it'll be hard work."
