The system extends my life, and all my husbands want me to be the empress
Chapter 15 The Princess Answers
The leading envoy bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I am Li Duofeng. I have come here on the orders of our king to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. I wish her long-lasting blessings and I am also sending our hostage Hua Yu to marry you."
Hearing this, everyone looked at the proton.
Hua Yu's face is full of pits and depressions, and people don't want to look at her a second time after seeing her face once.
So ugly!
Lin Moyun nodded slightly, and looked away from Hua Yu, but his expression remained serious: "King Yunhai is thoughtful."
Li Duofeng continued, "I hope Your Majesty will grant me the marriage."
Lin Moyun has few children, five sons and two daughters. The only ones of marriageable age are the fifth princess and the seventh princess.
The Seventh Princess was his daughter with Concubine Lin, and he loved her especially.
Lin Moyun set his eyes on the fifth princess, Lin Meihua. Before he could speak, Lin Meihua seemed to have anticipated something and hurried forward and knelt down:
"Father, my daughter already has someone in her heart. This person is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Ouyang Qingyu. Please grant me the marriage."
Lin Wanwan looked at Ouyang Qingyu, only to see his eyes flash, his lips pursed into a straight line, he involuntarily took a deep breath, stood up from his seat and said:
"Your Majesty, I already have someone I love, and it's not the Fifth Princess."
Lin Meihua was shocked when she heard this and didn't want to believe it: "Who? Who is that person?"
Lin Moyun's face was gloomy and very ugly: "Meihua, you step back!"
Lin Wanwan looked calm and said in a resounding voice, "Fifth Princess, if you don't want this Yunhai Kingdom hostage now, don't regret it later."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yu raised his eyes and looked at Lin Wanwan, slightly thoughtful.
Lin Meihua couldn't help but laugh secretly when she heard this. This kind of stuff is like a dog-skin plaster. Who the hell would regret it?
Lin Meihua said: "I will not regret what I have said."
The seventh princess, Lin Mengdan, looked thoughtful.
Ouyang Qingyu's gaze fell on Lin Wanwan, and seeing that every word she spoke was about Hua Yu, he felt very uncomfortable at the moment.
He couldn't help but secretly question Lin Wanwan in his heart: What did those words said to me in Hongyue Tower mean? What did they mean?
"Please leave." Lin Moyun said solemnly, "We will discuss the marriage later. Everyone has come from afar, please take your seats."
Lin Meihua and Ouyang Qingyu returned to their seats.
Hua Yu took the seat.
But the three envoys did not take their seats.
Special envoy Li Duofeng saluted and said, "The second reason for coming here is to enhance the friendship between the two countries and discuss strategies for peace and friendship."
The emperor raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Very good, very good. What specific ideas do the envoys have?"
Li Duofeng said: "Your Majesty, our country hopes to open the border with your country, expand trade, and exchange what we have."
The emperor's eyes fixed, he fell into deep thought, and did not answer immediately.
At this time, another envoy hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, our country is willing to reduce the number of troops stationed on the border to show our sincerity."
The emperor's eyes swept across the three envoys, finally landing on the ugly proton, and he said slowly:
"The proton Hua Yu has been delivered, which shows your country's determination. The rest of the matters still need to be discussed in detail."
Seeing Lin Xiaohe's attitude, the envoys looked sharp and their expressions turned arrogant.
Special envoy Li Duofeng then changed the subject: "I have heard that your country has many capable people. We have a few questions and would like to have a debate with the wise men of your country."
Lin Moyun nodded, looked at the people below the stage, and said, "Who will fight?"
The fifth princess, Lin Meihua, knew that she had displeased His Majesty just now, so she volunteered to be the first to go into battle.
Ye Zhaobo, the Censorate, was the second person.
Prime Minister Su Mingde is the third person.
Concubine Lin looked carefully at the side and asked, "Why is my nephew Ouyang Qingyu not here?"
Lin Moyun couldn't help but glance at Ouyang Qingyu, only to see that he was frowning and looking absent-minded.
Lin Moyun retracted his gaze: "Let's start."
The concubines in the harem and the court officials were all full of confidence. After all, Ye Zhaobo and Su Mingde were both the backbone of the Xuanyue Dynasty.
The fifth princess, Lin Meihua, has always been known as the most talented woman in Xuanyue Kingdom.
"First question: I heard that your country has a strong army, but if it is attacked by the armies of Yunhai Country in the east and Jinzi Country in the west at the same time, how will you respond?"
Special Envoy Li Duofeng was the first to attack, with provocation in his eyes.
Lin Meihua said confidently: "Either ask for peace, or both sides will fight together."
Lin Moyun's eyes darkened when he heard this: "Meihua, step back."
Lin Meihua was stunned when she heard this and didn't understand what was going on.
The atmosphere around them gradually became awkward, and the discussions between the ministers and concubines gradually faded away.
Eventually, the princes fell silent and watched the situation unfold in secret.
Lin Moyun understood deeply that this was not a question, but an attempt to find out the truth about the Xuanyue Dynasty.
The second envoy then asked: "I heard that your country's economy is prosperous, but if there are natural disasters, poor harvests, and frequent wars, how can you protect people's livelihood, stabilize prices, and save the people from disaster?"
After this question was asked, the ministers were speechless and the entire palace fell into silence.
The envoy's words were full of murderous intent and he mentioned the war frequently. Ye Zhaobo could only stammer and dared not answer.
Seeing this, Special Envoy Li Duofeng raised a scornful smile and posed another difficult question: "If both of the above problems occur, at this time Xuanyue Country is in chaos on the border and there is resentment within the country, how should your country choose to ensure the stability of the country?"
Prime Minister Su Mingde had no choice but to remain silent. It was not that he did not know how to answer, but that he really could not answer.
Some of the ministers and concubines in the harem frowned, thinking hard; some lowered their heads and remained silent, looking nervous.
The Queen Mother glanced at us and understood that if we couldn't answer the questions, it would mean that we had given up. She couldn't afford to lose face at her Qianqiu Banquet.
At this time, the Queen Mother looked at everyone, hoping that someone would appear and dampen the arrogance of these special envoys from the Yunhai Kingdom.
Li Duofeng has already started to mock: "The ministers of Xuanyue Dynasty all looked at each other, and no one could give a definite answer. It seems..."
Lin Wanwan stood up calmly and said, "I'll answer."
Everyone's eyes turned to Lin Wanwan.
Lin Meihua sneered and said, "She dares to answer with her attitude? Don't embarrass yourself later."
"Princess An Ning also understands government affairs?"
"If even the Prime Minister and the Censorate can't answer this question, it will bring shame to our country again."
"Hey……"
The ministers were talking about it, and most of them were not optimistic about the princess.
Emperor Lin Moyun listened to these discussions and hesitated.
Lin Wanwan stood up and walked to the front of the hall: "Guaranteed to win."
Everyone present:...
Although Lin Moyun saw that she was calm, he was still hesitant.
At this time, Crown Prince Lin Xiaohe said, "Father, let Princess An Ning have a try for now."
Lin Moyun looked at his son and couldn't help but recall that two days ago, he had specifically suggested setting up two more seats for the Queen Mother's Centenary Celebration.
One was given to Prince Yong, and the other was arranged for Princess Anning, Lin Wanwan.
Lin Moyun's eyes were deep: "Since the prince strongly recommends you, just give it a try."
Lin Wanwan bowed slightly and stood up. She looked at Hua Yu with sharp eyes and a clear and firm voice, and said with a faint smile:
"Envoy Li, what we are discussing today concerns the internal affairs of the Xuanyue Dynasty. Although I am a woman, I also have a few words to say."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present pricked up their ears and listened.
Special envoy Li Duofeng stepped forward without greeting: "Princess An Ning, hahahaha...Princess An Ning? Could it be the princess who was looking for a palace attendant in Hongyue Tower?"
