The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and said, "We need a grand welcoming ceremony."

Emperor Kangwu: "?"

Qi Zhiyu's lips curled up: "With the Xu family being so powerful, shouldn't we give them a proper welcome when they arrive in the capital?"

"Let the people get to know the Xu family."

Emperor Kangwu glanced at Prince Rui, thinking to himself, "This girl has thought things through quite deeply."

Prince Rui puffed out his chest proudly.

Emperor Kangwu silently turned his head away, not wanting to look at this guy; he was too much of an eyesore.

Emperor Kangwu naturally had no objection to Qi Zhiyu's request.

In the past few days, all the civil and military officials have learned that Qi Zhiyu has found someone from a reclusive family outside.

That reclusive family, rumored to be extremely knowledgeable and capable of providing crucial guidance at critical moments!

Now, undercurrents are swirling again in the court.

Recently, King Rui's momentum has surpassed that of King Wu.

If it weren't for the fact that the ministers who supported the King of Wu were so deeply tied to him that they couldn't disembark directly, those people would probably have already defected.

This time, Qi Zhiyu got to know people from a reclusive family, which was a significant advantage for Prince Rui.

Those in the Wu King's faction were already considering whether they should cut their losses and save themselves.

For the King of Wu, hope is dwindling.

The King of Wu was naturally aware of their thoughts, but he was not in a hurry.

That's exactly the effect he wanted.

The more those people favor Prince Rui, the more advantageous it will be for him in the future.

Prince Rui thought these people were his men, but what was the reality?

The more Prince Rui uses them, the better it will be for him!

After the Xu family came along, those opportunists would simply leave.

He won't try to stop you.

Didn't they want to cut their losses and survive?

Then leave enough things behind, and he will naturally let them go.

Those things will be the foundation for him to reach that position in the future.

Qi Zhiyu likes to play open schemes, thinking it's sophisticated?

Neither overt nor covert schemes matter; what matters is who the final winner is!

The King of Wu even spread some messages to remind his ministers.

If a reclusive family were to pledge allegiance to Prince Rui, and Prince Rui were to appoint those people to official positions in the court, then whose position would be replaced?

That's hard to say!

There are only so many high-ranking official positions.

For a time, the people in the court were in turmoil.

Finally, after a few days, the Xu family arrived in the capital with all their members.

In the capital, a residence had already been prepared for them, and the Xu family moved in directly.

The next morning, the people of the capital watched in astonishment as the palace procession arrived at the Xu family's gate and invited the Xu family patriarch and others into the palace.

It's clear that the Xu family is being given exceptional importance; the ceremony was incredibly grand.

Not only did they beat gongs to clear the way, but they also splashed water on the streets to clean them.

The people were all stunned.

Although they didn't know who the Xu family was, they understood from the display of power that they should be careful when passing by their house in the future.

You absolutely must not offend the important person inside.

This display of power quickly reached the attention of the King of Wu.

After hearing this, the King of Wu smashed the cup in his hand.

Princess Wu looked at him, puzzled: "Why is Your Highness angry?"

"Father truly values ​​Prince Rui highly." Prince Wu gritted his teeth in hatred. "Father knows this person was found for Prince Rui by Qi Zhiyu, yet he still values ​​him so much?"

"Why make such a fuss?"

"Father might as well just pass the throne to Prince Rui!"

Princess Wu sighed inwardly, somewhat regretting her past actions of acting on impulse.

The King of Wu's lack of composure is truly petty and narrow-minded.

"Why is Your Highness so angry?" Princess Wu advised. "The more His Majesty values ​​it, the better, isn't it?"

"At that time, the Xu family members will hold important positions, won't they be at the prince's beck and call?"

Upon hearing this, the King of Wu was immediately pleased: "Let Prince Rui also experience what it feels like to have your efforts come to naught!"

"Seeing how much Father values ​​them, he will surely give them a good position."

"They still have room for advancement in the future."

That's right.

These will all be his in the future.

If Father Emperor knew that everything he did for Prince Rui today would ultimately end up in his hands, I wonder what Father Emperor would think.

He wanted his father to know that he was in no way inferior to Prince Rui.

He wasn't serious before, but now... even his father and the others have been defeated by him.

The King of Wu was pleased, and the Xu family was welcomed into the palace in great style.

None of the ministers left the main hall.

All the matters to be discussed at the morning court session had been discussed, but Emperor Kangwu had sent someone to fetch the Xu family, so the officials were asked to wait a moment.

Everyone is actually quite curious about the Xu family.

Is it really as amazing as the legends say?

Soon, Chief Xu and the others entered the main hall, where they knelt down and bowed respectfully.

After Emperor Kangwu told them to rise, he smiled and said, "I've heard that the Xu family has produced many talented people. I'm curious about your abilities."

The clan chief cupped his hands and said, "The Xu family has always been a family of scholars and poets."

"It is no exaggeration for this humble commoner to boast that he is learned and talented."

"None of the Xu family members are bookworms; when they travel and study, they are exposed to all sorts of new things they never knew before."

"The Xu family is the same; it has developed to where it is today through the hard work of generations."

Emperor Kangwu nodded in satisfaction: "The Xu family is truly admirable."

"However, some things will only become clear over time."

"Does the Xu family have anything that can immediately demonstrate your abilities to me?"

The clan chief cupped his hands and said, "The Xu family has some high-yield crops that the Xu family members found while traveling."

"Now all are offered to His Majesty."

"Oh?" Emperor Kangwu asked curiously. "That's not bad."

"Princess Chen'an has already told me about your matter." After Emperor Kangwu finished speaking, he glanced at Qi Zhiyu, who had arrived before the Xu family and was sitting to the side drinking tea and eating snacks.

"Then we'll arrange things according to the princess's wishes..."

"Go to various places to teach and educate people."

When Emperor Kangwu finished speaking, all the officials were stunned.

Whether it was Prince Rui's side or Prince Wu's faction, everyone was shocked by this news.

The Xu family is so powerful, why doesn't His Majesty bestow upon them an official position?

Why are they being sent to various places to teach and educate people?

Isn't he just a schoolteacher?

Shouldn't such people be placed in the imperial court? At the very least, they should be sent to local areas, given authority, and allowed to fully utilize their abilities?

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chief Xu bowed respectfully without any objection.

"Therefore, you may rest at home for a few days. Once your destinations are arranged, you may set off on your respective journeys," Emperor Kangwu instructed.

"Don't worry about your family members. I will arrange for people to take good care of them. You won't have any worries."

"Yes." Chief Xu kowtowed in gratitude.

"Now that you're here, don't rush to leave," Emperor Kangwu said with a smile. "If any of you gentlemen wish to spar, feel free to step onto the stage without any reservations."

"Everyone is speaking freely today."

None of the civil officials spoke; their minds were still blank.

They couldn't understand why the Xu family had made this arrangement.
