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

Zhou Lizhen was the one who suffered the most.

Who told him to stand up for the King of Wu and make things difficult for Qi Zhiyu?

"Princess, isn't Prince Xin always blocking things in Northern Yunnan?" Zhou Lizhen asked, puzzled.

Why did the Northern Dian forces break through Prince Xin's defenses and capture Yanyun City of the Qi Kingdom?

Qi Zhiyu looked at Zhou Lizhen with a smile: "You seem to care quite a bit about Qi Kingdom."

"If you didn't know better, you'd think you were from the Qi Kingdom."

Zhou Lizhen hurriedly explained, "Princess, you've misunderstood!"

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely no disloyal intentions towards Da Rui!"

"I am worried that the Qi Kingdom will think this way, which will cause misunderstandings between the two countries, lead to war, and make the people suffer from the ravages of war."

Qi Zhiyu casually said, "You can tell by looking at the generous gifts that the Qi Kingdom sent."

"They not only had no objections, but were also very grateful."

"Therefore, you don't need to worry about Qi Kingdom sending troops to attack Da Rui."

Zhou Lizhen didn't know what to say.

"Zhou Lizhen, you've seen it yourself. This princess has performed such a great service, so I suggested to my grandfather that the Xu family be sent to teach. Why doesn't my grandfather agree?"

"I arranged everything perfectly, even the capture of the city. My grandfather naturally supported my arrangements for the Xu family."

"As for what you just mentioned about cultivating power..."

Qi Zhiyu sneered at Zhou Lizhen, whose face was deathly pale, and casually said, "If I wanted power, what is the Xu family worth?"

"Of course, I understand your concern for the imperial court."

Zhou Lizhen looked at Qi Zhiyu in disbelief. Would she speak well of him?

"But you can't think things through, you can't even figure out something this simple... I really doubt your abilities," Qi Zhiyu sighed.

Zhou Lizhen: "..."

He knows it!

Why would Qi Zhiyu be so kind?

What does it mean to doubt his abilities?

That means he's not qualified for his current official position.

If the emperor doubts his abilities, he'll have no chance of promotion; he'll be lucky to avoid demotion.

His future truly rested on the shoulders of the King of Wu.

He only has a future if the King of Wu ascends to the throne.

Otherwise... his career has come to an end!

"Get up," Emperor Kangwu finally said.

After Zhou Lizhen kowtowed to express his gratitude, he stood back up.

He didn't feel relaxed at all.

Even though His Majesty hasn't said anything yet, he knows he's finished!

"Chen'an has made such a great contribution, yet she has not asked for any reward... If this cannot prove her loyalty and filial piety, then what can?" Emperor Kangwu said.

"From now on, anyone who questions Chen An will have to take a city and those generous gifts before they dare to speak!"

After Emperor Kangwu finished speaking, everyone was completely at a loss for words.

His Majesty's words effectively prevented anyone from questioning Princess Chen'an, or rather, the Prince Rui's residence.

After all, not everyone can conquer a city in another country, and even receive a generous gift from that country.

Only Princess Chen'an could do something so incredible.

They had never seen such a tactic before: seizing someone's city and then demanding gifts and thanks.

Emperor Kangwu naturally had his own arrangements for the Xu family's affairs, so there was no need to discuss them in court.

After the court session ended and everyone left, Emperor Kangwu stopped Grand Secretary Zhang to discuss some matters that had not been resolved during the morning court session.

The tacit understanding between the emperor and his minister over the years allowed them to quickly resolve those issues.

Grand Secretary Zhang did not leave, but instead stared longingly at Emperor Kangwu.

Emperor Kangwu asked, puzzled, "Grand Secretary, is there something else?"

"Please enlighten me, Your Majesty," said Grand Secretary Zhang, bowing respectfully.

If he didn't know how Princess Chen'an did it today, he really wouldn't be able to sleep well.

He's getting on in years; if he can't even sleep well, his health will easily collapse.

Emperor Kangwu couldn't help but laugh, and then told Grand Secretary Zhang what had happened at the border.

After hearing this, Grand Secretary Zhang was completely stunned.

The princess went to the border. How much did she accomplish?

The key point is that it also solved so many problems.

"Your Majesty, the princess is truly..." Grand Secretary Zhang was at a loss for words, unsure how to express himself.

Talent?

A prodigy?

I still feel that this is not enough to describe the princess.

"She's truly my good granddaughter!" Emperor Kangwu laughed heartily.

Grand Secretary Zhang: "..."

He felt that His Majesty was deliberately taking advantage of the princess's fame, and he had evidence.

But he dared not say it.

"Sprinkling clean water on the street and clearing the way with gongs, such courtesy to the Xu family... is this also the Princess's intention?" Grand Secretary Zhang asked.

He had a guess, but he wanted to verify it.

"Hmm." Emperor Kangwu said smugly, "Chen'an said that we should give him a grand welcome."

"Isn't this kind of treatment grand enough?"

Grand Secretary Zhang nodded in agreement.

It wasn't just grand, it was far too grand.

This shows that His Majesty values ​​the Xu family highly.

The fact that His Majesty values ​​a family like the Xu family so highly is something that all the people of the capital have noticed.

Moreover, His Majesty arranged for members of the Xu family, whom he valued so highly, to teach in various places.

How much does Your Majesty value the future talent of Da Rui?

How could the people not be moved by an emperor who cares so much about his people?

The princess's actions are indeed...admirable.

What further reward does the princess desire?

At this moment, no one could replace the Prince Rui's Mansion in His Majesty's heart.

Prince Rui is the undisputed heir apparent!

No reward could compare to what the princess wanted.

The princess's grasp of people's hearts is truly... chilling.

While Grand Secretary Zhang was expressing his feelings, the King of Wu also received the news.

However, after hearing this, he was completely stunned.

Princess Wu was also stunned. After a long while, she came to her senses and asked incredulously, "Teach? Go teach?"

"How could he possibly be going to teach?"

"Your Highness, is there something wrong with this?"

Her family members were to enter the court as officials and become an ally of the King of Wu, thus providing support for her son in the future.

At that time, none of the illegitimate sons in the family will be able to bypass her son and inherit the throne.

She had everything planned out, how did it turn out like this?

The King of Wu calmed down this time and asked, "Do they have other plans?"

The Queen Consort of Wu looked at the King of Wu with a puzzled expression.

The King of Wu speculated, "It won't be easy to free up an important position in the court these days."

"It's better to teach than to occupy an unimportant position in the imperial court."

"With the Xu family's abilities, wouldn't it be easy for their students to pass the exams?"

"These people can still be used by me after they enter the court and become officials."

Upon hearing this, Princess Wu was overjoyed: "So this is what the clan chief and the others are planning?"

The King of Wu shook his head: "This is just my guess."

Princess Wu thought for a moment and said, "I will find an opportunity to ask them."

"Alright, I'll make the arrangements!" King Wu said in a deep voice.

He also wanted to know if his guess was true.

He didn't believe it, so he went to great lengths to dig out the Xu family, only to end up with nothing!
