Quick travel: after being possessed by the monster system

Lin Qing said that he would choose his daughter-in-law from the four princes' mansions.

Except for Yongchang Houfu and Yongping Houfu, the other two Houfu are all legitimate sons.

Well known.

There is only one legitimate daughter in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, Shu Xingruo, and there is only one legitimate daughter in the Yongping Marquis Mansion, Lu Xiyue.

The rest are all concubines.

So Lin Qing would choose between Shu Xingruo and Lu Xiyue.

For Shu Xinglan, one is his sister and the other is his sweetheart. He can't choose either one.

Now, for the first time, he felt like shooting himself in the foot, which was extremely painful.

"Your Majesty, can't you understand people's words?"

"I would like to repeat it again. The one who is marrying Lin Guo is my noble Princess Chong'en. I believe that His Majesty Lin Guo will only be surprised and not disappointed."

Lin Jingyao finally knew why the eldest sister was here, why she barged in in such a hurry.

In order to decide on a marriage partner, the eldest sister was not willing to get married, so she had to personally choose a marriage partner that Lin Guo was satisfied with.

Indeed, compared to the eldest princess going to get married, this "Princess Chong'en" may win the heart of His Majesty Linguo more.

Between a domineering princess with a vicious heart and a gentle princess who is noble and virtuous, His Majesty Linguo probably knows how to choose.

Although beauties are good, femme fatales can easily get burned if they are not careful. For those in power, life is the most precious thing.

But Lin Jingyao is now in a dilemma.

According to his promise to Yongchang Hou, if Shu Xingruo will be his queen in the future, she must not send him away for marriage.

And Lu Xiyue is the sweetheart of Prince Yongchang. If Lu Xiyue can be canonized as Princess Chongen.

Shu Xinglan might be estranged from himself.

Lin Jingyao didn't want to choose that person unless he had to.

"Eldest sister, we should talk to the envoy of Linguo about the marriage first. We are not in a hurry to confirm the candidate. Let's see what the envoy says. Do you have any requirements for the candidate of our court and the relative?"

Lin Jingyao still wanted to delay it for a while and think of a solution later.

The best candidate for marriage must be the eldest sister.

How could he allow others to snore on the side of the bed? His eldest sister was always in Mianguo, and his heart was still unsettled after all.

Lin Jingyao thought about fooling her this time, dragging her eldest sister with her first, and then make a long-term plan.

Just when Shu Xinglan was counting on His Majesty and feeling relieved, Lin Qing's words made him look ashen again.

"Your Majesty, I also listened to the words of the Crown Prince Yongchang. I heard that the Crown Prince said in the court just now that this matter cannot be delayed. The regent is gone. If there is an attack on the country, the soldiers of Mian Kingdom will not be able to withstand it. How can your Majesty? Do you have to watch the people fall into the flames of war?"

"So, before I came to the court, I had my close associates send a message to Linguo at full speed, telling His Majesty Linguo that the two countries could form a good relationship between Qin and Jin, and that the noble Princess Chong'en would be sent to marry him. .”

Lin Qing's resolute actions made everyone change their faces.

The ministers who had previously disagreed with the princess's marriage fell to their knees collectively.

"I beg your majesty and princess to think twice. The princess's marriage will not guarantee the harmony between the two countries. It will only make Linguo think that we are showing weakness. Linguo will eventually push further and violate the power of our country again."

"Your majesty and princess are not allowed to marry!"

.......

When Shu Xinglan proposed a marriage before, those ministers also strongly opposed it.

They all sincerely consider Mian Guo. Even if they don't like to honor the eldest princess and are dissatisfied with her behavior, they are not willing to send the eldest princess to get married.

After all, since ancient times, sending a woman for marriage is a sign of weakness to another country.

Making peace cannot bring about real peace.

Lin Qing did not change his face towards the actions of these ministers.

His eyes softened a lot.

The ministers of Mian Kingdom are not all bloodless people.

Shu Xinglan had previously complained about the advice of the ministers who hindered the marriage, but now he hoped in his heart that these ministers could remonstrate with death and stop Lin Qing from doing whatever he wanted.

But when Lin Qing came here, she never thought of letting Shu Xinglan and the others escape easily. She came here today just to create trouble for Shu Xinglan and Lin Jingyao.

She didn't intend to let those ministers remonstrate to death. She already had a way to persuade them.

"I know that Your Majesty and the ministers are afraid. We are showing weakness by sending Princess Chong'en for marriage, which will damage the prestige of our country. However, I have not finished what I have to say. Please listen to what I have to say first."

"Everyone must have heard about Linguo's most favored little princess, Princess Shengxian. She is His Majesty Linguo's most favored daughter. When our two countries are getting married, naturally I am not just sending Princess Chong'en there in a humble way. We should reciprocate the courtesy. Theirs Princess Shengxian must also marry our Majesty and become our imperial concubine.”

"This will show the determination of harmony between the two countries, right?"

Lin Qing saw that the opposing minister's face looked much better, and he still hesitated slightly.

Most of the ministers have been moved by Lin Qing's words. They did not agree before because a unilateral peace proposal was similar to asking for peace with Lin Guo and undermined the country's prestige.

But the princesses of the two countries each got married, so that was a true marriage, not a sign of weakness.

The ministers all had their own considerations in mind. If they replaced Princess Chong'en, who was canonized by the princess, with Princess Shengxian, the most favored princess in Linguo, their country would have the upper hand.

"I do not agree with what the eldest princess said. His Majesty Linguo loves the little princess the most. How could he let the princess marry far away? I hope your majesty will think again."

Taifu Yan, who had not jumped out to stop Lin Qing from marrying Princess Chongen, could not stand at this time.

His daughter is a queen. If the little princess of Linguo marries in and has a distinguished status, her daughter may not be able to move forward in the harem. What prestige will she have then?

If Princess Shengxian gives birth to another prince, the eldest prince and the second prince will have strong rivals. With Linguo's backing, it is not certain who will inherit the throne.

And some thoughts quickly flashed through Lin Jingyao's mind.

If he really marries Princess Shengxian, and Princess Shengxian is really as favored as the legend says, then his relationship with Linguo will no longer be that of an enemy country, and he will also have Linguo's help in his hands. This will also mean something to him. Considered advantageous.

Thinking of this, Lin Jingyao quickly changed his mind about the marriage. The eldest sister's idea seemed to be beneficial to him.

He immediately decided to add fuel to the fire.

"Are you sure Taifu Yan has no selfish motives? Aren't you afraid that Princess Shengxian will marry His Majesty and threaten the Queen's status?"

Lin Qing didn't hide it at all and directly exposed Taifu Yan's thoughts.

Master Yan's face instantly turned pale.

His pupils dilated and he glared at Lin Qing angrily.

"you..."

Seeing Lin Qing's eyes looking at him become less and less warm, he remembered that the eldest princess's violent temper and his actions were simply irritating her.

But it's impossible for a man over fifty to admit his mistake.

"It would be best if the Grand Tutor has no selfish motives. Then the matter will be settled. Three days later, Prince Yongchang will present the candidate to His Majesty."

"Prince Yongchang, I would like to remind you once again that the person we are marrying this time is Princess Shengxian, so the candidate for Princess Chongen can only be our legitimate daughter!"

"Remember?"

Shu Xinglan turned pale and nodded.

Seeing Shu Xinglan like this, the smile on Lin Qing's face became more sincere.
