After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

Chapter 531: Fulfilling the Princess’s Heart

Just as Ye Tantai was about to leave, he met Xiao Guoliang who was going to court.

Xiao Guoliang was dressed in cavalry and archery gear, with a long sword at his waist. He looked very majestic. As a man with military power, he was the only person in Beiyuan who was qualified to bring a sword to court.

"Why is King Yunan here?" Ye Tantai wanted to pretend not to see it, but was stopped by Xiao Guoliang.

"Send it to Madam." Ye Tantai said simply.

"Yes, my general's residence is not far from here. You can go there and sit and wait." Xiao Guoliang said.

"No need," Ye Tantai refused, and then thought of something, "But I still have something to ask for. I hope the general will take more care of his wife."

"It should."

It was getting late, Xiao Guoliang left and walked up to the main hall.

Everyone is already in place. Su Qingcheng stands in front of the four major families. Behind her are Beili Zhong and others who have not seen each other for a long time.

The empress sat down and everyone knelt down.

"See the Empress, long live the Empress."

"Get flat." The empress said.

Next, there is the usual process. First, people from the four major families come forward to report.

A few of them will also write a letter to Su Qingcheng after these matters come to court, but this is the first time she has heard about it, and it is very novel.

After the four of them took turns to report, Bei Lizhong said: "The Lantern Festival is approaching, and we will do our best to assist the princess in hosting this grand event celebrated by the whole country."

"Not bad." The empress praised.

At this time, Xiao Guoliang also reported as promised yesterday: "Empress, I have something to report. During the Lantern Festival, can the soldiers of the Imperial Guard be given a day off in rotation?"

"What is rotational rest?" the empress asked puzzledly.

Su Qingcheng and Xiao Guoliang looked at each other. She nodded slightly and stood up and said, "Let the Imperial Guard take turns to take a day off before and after the festival without affecting normal security inspections."

The empress looked at Su Qingcheng and said, "Is this your idea?"

Su Qingcheng did not admit or deny it. She said: "The Imperial Guard only has three days off every year. This is not a war period, so we can relax appropriately."

The empress nodded, as if confirming what Su Qingcheng said.

The Imperial Preceptor blocked the exit and said: "I hope the Empress will think twice. The days around the Lantern Festival are the easiest to relax. If the soldiers are given a rest at that time, they will definitely become distracted."

The four major families who originally planned to agree with Su Qingcheng were a little embarrassed. They looked at each other and didn't know who to help.

On the one hand, there is the princess whom he should treat wholeheartedly, and on the other hand, there is the teacher who teaches them carefully. It is really a dilemma.

Su Qingcheng asked: "If you arrange your own day of rest in advance for the soldiers, why do you feel so distracted?"

"Then how can the princess ensure that every soldier wants to rest? Besides, some people want to rest before the holiday, and some want to rest after the holiday. It's hard to agree with everyone." The Imperial Master said coldly.

There were more voices in the crowd supporting the National Master.

"Empress, think twice. The princess's advice is good, but the advice of the Imperial Master is even more reasonable. We in Beiyuan have been able to maintain peace and prosperity for so long because of the unyielding Imperial Guards."

"Yes, if the Lantern Festival allows them to rest today, they will want more holidays in the future."

"That's right, the Guards are resting. What if something happens to us?"

……

Su Qingcheng looked at these opponents, and it turned out that just as Ye Tantai said last night, they were all the people who reported to the empress to join her.

It seems that these people are already unabashedly siding with the national defense.

The Imperial Master continued: "Besides, if someone wants to use the Lantern Festival to cause trouble, they will definitely deploy before and after the Lantern Festival. They could have noticed it in time, but the Imperial Guards all went to rest."

As soon as these words came out, some people who had remained neutral began to waver.

"What the Imperial Master said makes sense, the safety of the people is more important."

"However, the princess's intention is good, but she is still young and cannot see many things as comprehensively as the Imperial Master."

Su Qingcheng's ears were filled with these words.

She had to admit that the national master's status in Beiyuan was extraordinary.

Xiao Guoliang's face darkened, perhaps because the authorities were obsessed with it, and bystanders could tell that the Imperial Master's behavior was a suppression of Su Qingcheng.

"What do the people from the four major families think?" the empress asked.

Su Qingcheng also looked over. According to the results of yesterday's discussion with Ye Tantai, the attitudes of the four major families may be ambiguous. After all, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh.

Bei Lizhong said on behalf of the four people: "The emperor's proposal is very good. The Imperial Guards are also common people. They have worked hard for our Beiyuan and they should rest. But what the Imperial Master said is also very reasonable. Everything is decided by the empress. No matter what the outcome, We will do our best to assist the princess."

Having said this is like saying nothing, and neither party will be offended.

Su Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh, it seems that her road to conquering the four major families is still very long...

"Well," the Empress nodded, "What do you think, Princess?"

Su Qingcheng took a step forward, turned around and faced everyone, and said calmly and generously: "I think what the Imperial Master said is not completely unreasonable, but if the Imperial Guard hears it, I'm afraid it will be chilling."

"How do you say this?" The empress looked at her niece's appearance and knew that she was about to start exerting her strength, so she was quite interested.

"If I remember correctly, those who just agreed with the Imperial Master should be Tang Xiaoshu Lang, Gu Xielülang and Dr. Li Taichang." When these people heard that they were singled out, they trembled nervously, "I have something that I can't figure out. How can these people be promoted?”

A few people felt guilty and said, "What do you mean, princess? We are standing here through our own efforts."

"I won't say much about what happened before, but for what you guys said just now, I can reward you with fifty big words!" Su Qingcheng's voice became louder, resounding throughout the hall.

"The Imperial Guard is the backbone of our country. Every battle in Beiyuan was won by them. All the peace you have today is achieved by their hard work with their lives."

After hearing this, Xiao Guoliang nodded with satisfaction.

These words were taught to her by Ye Tantai last night. Ye Tantai said that when Xiao Guoliang proposed the rotation of the Imperial Guard, someone would definitely come out to oppose it.

So he asked Su Qingcheng to remember what he said.

Su Qingcheng saw that the emotions had been prepared and said: "The three of you spoke rudely in the main hall, which is really embarrassing to the Imperial Master!"

The Imperial Master's face became gloomy. He didn't think that just now, but when Su Qingcheng said it, he recalled that the speeches of several people were indeed excessive.

"Today is my first day in court, and your expressions are really disappointing." Su Qingcheng said coldly.

Her words deeply touched the hearts of every member of the four major families.

Xiao Guoliang said: "Empress, I guarantee with the military talisman that I will ensure that the Lantern Festival goes smoothly. I also hope that the Empress will fulfill the princess's heartfelt wishes for her people."

As soon as these words came out, the people below agreed.

"I hope the empress will fulfill her wishes."

The empress waved her hand: "Okay, this matter will be left to the princess and General Xiao to discuss and withdraw from the court!"
