MTL - Princess a Lives By Kissing Me Every Day-Chapter 73
The moment the emperor said that sentence, Qin Yuci was a little dazed.
She was stunned, and before she could say anything, she saw Qin Yuewei slowly stand up, and respectfully thanked her father, expressing that she would handle this matter properly and live up to the grace and expectations of everyone.
"Father." Qin Yuci also stood out of the queue in response, and said seriously, "My son thinks that this matter still needs to be considered."
"Oh?" The emperor looked down at her, "What are Ci'er's thoughts?"
"Reporting to my father, the disaster in Xubei was serious, and the common people were in dire straits. The situation has reached such a point that it cannot be delayed any longer."
"Although the second princess is very talented, she also has military achievements before." She said, raising her eyes to glance at Qin Yuewei's face, and then continued after a pause, "But disaster relief is not a trivial matter, and decisions should be judged from various aspects. "
"So Ci'er thinks that Yuewei is not up to the task?" The emperor responded, curling up the corners of his lips with a half-smile.
"My son has no such intentions." Qin Yuci raised his eyes to face him, and was not intimidated by his appearance, but refused to budge an inch, "Xu Bei has been suffering from drought for a long time, and my father is benevolent and benevolent. Yue has already ordered the appropriation of funds several times, but now it still has little effect, which shows the severity of the disaster and the hardships of the people, and the loss and risk will be increased every day if it is delayed."
"In the long run, it will not only reduce the national treasury, but also damage the prosperity of Dazhao and the integrity of the country. Therefore, we should choose more carefully and find a more suitable candidate."
These words are indeed very reasonable, but they are also sharp and sensitive.
Qin Yuewei was a little displeased when she heard the words. Although Qin Yuci never said a word that was bad for her, she pointed the finger at her every sentence. She was silent for a long time and smiled softly: "Your Highness said so much , after all, I still can't trust Yuewei."
"There is a first time for everything, and everything is unknown until it happens, so how can you decide that Yue Wei is not the right person?"
To say that she is also tolerant, even the general ministers might change their faces slightly when they heard this, but she still acted like a normal person and asked a rhetorical question with a smile on her face.
It's just that she was willing to ask, but Qin Yuci was not necessarily willing to answer. Instead, she said slowly: "What does this palace think, I have already explained everything before, so why should the second princess go so far as to ask this palace again."
"What's more..." she said, she paused for a moment, her tone remained unchanged, but her eyes turned cold, "I was talking to my father just now."
"Father hasn't spoken yet, but the second princess is so eager to answer. Could it be that she thinks she has a better opinion?"
In a few words, he threw the spearhead back again.
Qin Yuewei was speechless for a moment, and the smile froze on her face for an instant, almost unable to hold back: "You..."
"Don't be rude!" At the critical moment, the emperor suddenly shouted sharply.
"Yes." Qin Yuewei knew that he was beating herself, then she closed her lips tightly and said nothing, and then she backed away.
"I heard Ci'er say so, it seems that I already have a better candidate in my heart?" He continued afterward.
There were doubts and inquiries in the words, as if she really couldn't see through her thoughts, but yesterday the two chatted for a long time, and Qin Yuci submitted the note again, how could he not know what was going on in his heart.
Just pretending not to know.
"Return to your father's words." Since this is the case, Qin Yuci once again clarified it personally, and said firmly, "My minister believes that there is indeed a more suitable candidate for Xu Bei's matter."
"And that person is none other than the son himself."
Her voice was not too loud, but it was extremely serious and firm enough to reverberate in everyone's heart.
Some of the ministers present supported Qin Yuci's side, not to mention that the previous battles had already demonstrated her strength and courage, and she was the well-deserved eldest princess of Dazhao, so such a big event should be entrusted to her.
So the courtiers headed by Mr. Zhao began to advise the emperor, thinking that what the eldest princess said was very reasonable.
However, there was another group of courtiers who stood up, thinking that His Majesty would choose the second princess. Naturally, he had his own considerations, and he should obey His Majesty's arrangement.
The two groups of people held different opinions and stood in the court hall arguing endlessly. In the past, the emperor was very tired of such a scene, but today he did not stop him.
No one else, because Na Bo supported Qin Yuewei's courtiers, and it was he who instructed him.
Qin Yuewei, as a middle-of-the-road, unfavored princess, has been ignored by the emperor for many years. The positions of the courtiers are closely related to their own interests. If they were not ordered by the emperor, how could they risk going against the eldest princess' wishes? The risk is Qin Yuewei's advice.
It's just that the clearer you can see, the more powerless and uneasy you feel.
Qin Yuci pursed his lips and looked at the emperor's face quietly through the crowd. His eyes were as deep and beautiful as usual, but there seemed to be some disappointment mixed in them.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Shi felt a little guilty when she saw him, and after a long silence, he finally waved his hand to stop the quarrel.
"I've made up my mind, so there's no need to say more." He said, then slowly got up and asked De Hai beside him to support him, "Let's retreat."
After finishing speaking, he just left without looking back. Whether as a monarch or as a father, he never looked at Qin Yuci again.
"..."
When Qin Yuci returned to Changle Palace, Lin Moran was sitting by the bed arranging clothes.
Now that it's summer, the Imperial College finally ushered in the holidays. After months of hard work, I can finally have a good rest, and I can also spend more time with my lover.
Lin Moran smiled, raised her eyes when she saw her enter the door, and walked up to greet her: "Yinyin is back."
Her voice was nice and warm. Qin Yuci felt his heart gradually calm down just listening to it. After a long silence, he opened his lips and responded softly: "Yes."
"I made a new pastry." Lin Moran said, noticing that she was not in a good condition today, so he raised his hand to hold her, and led her to the bedside to sit down.
It has been several months since the first pastry was made, and Lin Moran's technique has gradually improved, and the taste is almost the same as that made in the kitchen, or even a little bit better.
Seeing Qin Yu's displeasure, he specially picked the biggest and most beautiful one and handed it to her, his almond eyes rolled slightly and he said with a light smile, "Try the sound?"
"Of course, the cooking is extremely delicious." Qin Yu said, infected by her smile, the corners of his lips gradually curled into a chuckle, he lowered his eyes and took a few bites, the taste was really good.
Lin Moran blinked and looked at her obediently: "Yinyin, let's eat a few more bites."
"Okay." Qin Yuci responded to her words, and really lowered his head and took a few more bites, but this time his teeth were not only soft to the touch, but also hard.
She couldn't help but looked down, and then found that there was a copper plate inside.
"This is?"
"I heard from the old man in the past that if you eat copper coins in the dumplings, it indicates that you will have good luck." As soon as the words fell, Lin Moran responded softly, "So I followed this practice and also made cakes. Pack one in."
"Anyway, they are all copper plates, so the effect should be the same."
She said, the babbling is all reasonable: "Since you have eaten Yinyin now, it means that you are very lucky, and something good will happen in the next few days."
It sounded quite beautiful, but Qin Yuci knew that the so-called good luck was just chosen by Ranran to be with her.
But even so, she is still very happy. Since her lover chose it for her, it means adding a layer of tenderness and love to luck, and the effect will definitely be better.
"Since that's the case, then let's take advantage of it." Qin Yuci smiled, and suddenly lowered his eyes to approach her, leaning over to place a light kiss on her lips.
Then he opened his mouth again, with a very soft voice, like a whisper, sincerely said: "I also want to share some luck with you."
The voice is full of smiles, and listening to it makes people feel happy and satisfied.
"Yinyin is really good." Lin Moran smiled, feeling that she seemed to be in a better mood, and after a long silence, she finally asked, "It's just that Yinyin seems to be in a bad condition today."
"Perhaps... something happened in the court?"
Nothing can be hidden from her eyes.
Qin Yuci paused in response, and after a long silence, he finally told the person in front of him everything, including what happened yesterday, what she wrote, what the emperor said, and the emperor's decision today.
"Father asked me to go yesterday. It seemed to be a small talk, but it was actually to test." Qin Yu said in a calm tone, "The matter of Xu Bei cannot be delayed, not only because of the severity of the disaster, but also because of the proximity to the border."
"Everything should be balanced. Now that my father is getting weaker and weaker, he will inevitably increase his guard against me. If I don't want me to be the only one, I will always push some people out to check and balance with me."
"On the surface, he seems to be helping Qin Yuewei, but actually it's just for himself. I'm afraid that I will go deep into Xu Bei, where I will win the hearts of the people and keep people there, posing a threat to his power and status."
"He doesn't believe me after all." At this point, Qin Yu paused for a moment, and suddenly smiled softly, "He knew what kind of person I was, but now that the people are in dire straits and the people are in dire straits, he still wants to A judgment that takes power and status into consideration."
"This is the Tianjia. It is magnificent on the surface, but it is rotten and soaked in blood, but the gold and jade are ruined inside."
She seldom said such things, and now it seems that she is extremely disappointed.
Lin Moran raised his eyes to look at her, and the more he listened, the more distressed he became, but he also knew that despite all the obstacles at the moment, Qin Yuci would definitely seize the opportunity and move forward. After a pause, he said, "Yinyin still has me."
"Although I am fledgling now, I have a lonely blood and determination. I also believe in you, love you, and will always be with you."
"There will definitely be opportunities, and things will definitely turn around. Although the second princess is supported by the emperor, if she doesn't wholeheartedly serve the people and have other hearts, the disadvantages will gradually become apparent."
"We'll just wait." Lin Moran said, his tone was light but firm, "I will always be with Yinyin."
She has always been her own comfort and salvation.
Qin Yuci paused for a moment when he heard the words, a smile appeared in his eyes, he opened his lips and was about to speak but was interrupted by the person in front of him.
This time, he was not as strong as before, but changed into a touch of softness. He opened his arms to face her with reddish cheeks, and there was warmth between his brows and eyes.
She said softly, "Does Yinyin want a hug?"
"I just smoked incense not long ago, and it smells quite calming." She said, her lips curled into a slight smile, "Would you like to try it?"
