I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 24
Xiang Ning's heart was pounding!

She had never thought about this problem. When Fan Li reminded her, she felt upset and her heartbeat accelerated inexplicably.

Ahhhhh!
The Fan family is the most prominent family in Great Chu, and now Fan Ming, the eldest brother of the Fan family, almost controls the entire economy of Great Chu with the Fan's firm.

Fan Chun, the third eldest son of the Fan family, firmly controls the entire [-] garrison in Pengcheng, the capital of the country.As long as he gives the order, one hundred thousand garrison troops will dare to attack even the imperial palace!
Even the only woman of this generation of the Fan family, Fan Yuehua, is known as the fairy.

She has many admirers in Great Chu, no matter which wealthy family Fan Yuehua finally decides to marry, the other party will definitely become a loyal follower of the Fan family.

The Fan family is so powerful. If the royal family marries it, wouldn't it also make the Xiang family's imperial power permanent?

"Is it because of me that he came up with such a way to get the best of both worlds? No need to fight, no need to hurt each other, just a marriage between the two families. From now on, I will be the empress, and he will still be No. 1 among the civil and military officials."

Xiang Ning was thinking wildly for a while, and actually imagined a scene in his mind of himself wearing a wedding dress and entering the bridal chamber hand in hand with Fan Li.

Ah... this...

Xiang Ning took a sneak peek at Fan Li, seeing his handsome face like a banished immortal, he became infatuated for a moment.

Among the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty, there is no man who is more handsome and majestic than him.

"That……"

Xiang Ning hesitated, but couldn't think of a better way.

She sighed faintly, like a broken jar, she resentfully and shyly said to Fan Li: "If Duke Jin thinks it's good, I think it's good too."

That's it!

I have no chance to choose at all, even if I resist, how can I defeat Fan Li?
I just hope that he can treat himself kindly in the future.

Fan Li breathed a sigh of relief.

The little emperor performed well today and was so obedient.

That being the case, in the future, unless it is a system task, I will stop bullying her.

Fan Li smiled and said loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, then please ask Your Majesty to propose marriage to Han Emperor Liu Xie during the [Three Emperors Alliance]."

"Liu Xie? Proposal?"

Xiang Ning was stunned for a few seconds, and Liu Xie's appearance gradually appeared in his mind.

It was a portrait presented by the Han envoy. Xiang Ning lost interest after just one glance.

In the portrait, Liu Xie, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, has a gentle manner and a gentle face, and is quite famous for his Confucian style.

However, Xiang Ning doesn't like this kind of man.

She yearned for Taizu Overlord, and believed that all real men in the world should be like Taizu Xiang Yu, who exudes masculinity all over his body!

"What does Fan Li mean? He doesn't want to marry me, but wants me to co-operate with Han Emperor Liu..."

"How old is Liu Xie? I clearly remember that Liu Xiesheng has three daughters, all of whom seem to be as old as me!"

"Fan Li, you bastard! Since you know that I am a woman, you still let me propose to Liu Xie? Even if the emperor's marriage is beyond his control, how can a woman propose to a man?"

The more Xiang Ning thought about it, the more wronged he became, and he almost cried out of anger.

Fortunately, she still remembered that she was disguising herself as a man and was facing all the civil and military officials at the court meeting.

Tears did not fall, but Xiang Ning's eyes were like sharp knives, he really wanted to stab Fan Li to death immediately!
"What's wrong with this bitch?" Fan Li was also puzzled.

But he continued: "Your Majesty, please marry Princess Changle. The princess is about the same age as Your Majesty, and she is also known as the number one talented woman in the Han Dynasty. In Sanskrit Pure Land, Liu Man is also famous far away."

After Fan Li finished speaking, all the officials under the royal rank couldn't help applauding.

"Duke Jin is wonderful! Your Majesty and Princess Changle are truly a perfect match in this world!"

"The princess is in Dachu at the moment. I have heard for a long time that she has an extremely beautiful appearance, extraordinary intelligence, and her talent for cultivation is rare in the world!"

"If Your Majesty marries Princess Changle, not only will he be able to win over the big man, but he will also bring me, Dachu, closer to the Pure Land of Fanyin!"

All the officials talked a lot, and all praised Fan Li's brilliant plan.

Xiang Ning, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had nowhere to vent the depressed emotions in his heart.

She felt like her fist was hitting the cotton.

how?

Fan Li has become a capable, good, and wise minister?
I still have to accept his bad idea?
Xiang Ning reluctantly accepted the facts in front of him: Fan Li didn't see through his disguise as a man, and he should be right about the marriage between Chu and Han.

There was no reason to refuse, but Xiang Ning became even more depressed.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Fan Li asked curiously.

I have already suggested it, and all the officials support it. Why is this guy still in a daze?

Oh, is she worried about her gender?

It was inconvenient for Fan Li to say this clearly. He reckoned that with Princess Changle's intelligence or insidiousness, he would definitely be able to easily deal with Xiang Ning.

Secondly, Fan Li didn't bother to reveal girls' little secrets unless necessary.

"I still need to discuss the matter of marriage with my mother!"

"As for Lucheng, I will leave tomorrow!"

After speaking, Xiang Ning walked away with displeasure written all over his face.

Returning to the harem, Xiang Ning threw herself directly into the arms of the Queen Mother.

"Queen, what should I do?"

With a crying voice, she recounted what happened at the court meeting.

The Queen Mother frowned when she heard this, but after a long silence, she finally said, "Fan Li is right."

Xiang Ning was shocked: "Mother! How can I marry Princess Changle?"

The Queen Mother said: "This kind of thing is actually not difficult to handle. Since ancient times, there have been many secrets about the harem. Ordinary people don't know it, but the Ai family has heard about it."

"What should we do?" Xiang Ning asked.

"Your Majesty, you have business to deal with [Three Emperors Alliance] first. As for Princess Changle, the Ai family will talk to the princess alone when you go to Lucheng."

Xiang Ning was a little confused.

"Queen, does the emperor want to marry the princess?"

From the bottom of his heart, Xiang Ning hopes to return to his original appearance every day.

Even if she continues to be emperor, she still wants to be an empress.

Xiang Ning would probably be very happy if he could have another male queen.

When Xiang Ning thought of this, Fan Li suddenly appeared in his mind.

She wanted to say to Fan Li majestically: According to the ancestral family law, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics!

But she is extremely reluctant to marry the princess!
The queen mother said: "As long as the princess understands the general situation, you must marry her! As for your marriage with the princess, it's just a show in front of people, it's a trivial matter."

"But my name..." Xiang Ning still felt aggrieved.

"Hmph! As an emperor, everything must be compromised for power! As long as the throne can be consolidated, and even Da Chu can rule the world, not to mention marrying one princess, even if you marry ten, you can't shirk it!"

"Yes……"

Xiang Ning had nothing to say and could only leave her marriage to the Queen Mother.

As for the Three Emperors Alliance, Fan Li had to run around for her.

When the emperors of the Chu, Han and Ming dynasties met in Lucheng for an alliance, they were of course escorted by the army and important ministers of the court.

Fan Ligui is the Duke of Jin and Prime Minister of Great Chu, he is duty-bound!
The next day, Xiang Ning's emperor's guard of honor went out of the east gate and headed towards Lucheng.

"Lu Cheng, the lord of the city, Lu Chunqiu, his ancestor was the hereditary Marquis of Wenxin from the previous dynasty."

"After the previous dynasty was overthrown and the world was divided into three parts, the Lu family built Lu City and declared neutrality."

"The Lu family is known as the most prominent family in the world, writing books and educating the world."

"More than [-]% of the great Confucianists in the world today came from Lu City and are disciples of the Lu family."

"The emperors of the Three Kingdoms recognized the Lu family's neutrality because of their great achievements in education, and also recognized the Lu family's hereditary title of Marquis Wenxin."

Fan Li quickly went through the information related to Lu Cheng in his mind.
