Ning Chen leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. You must agree to it. You must agree to it." The ministers who were arguing suddenly quieted down. Emperor Xuan was just stunned, but he knew Ning Chen too well. This kid would definitely do something. "Do you also think that we should agree to the request of Nanyue for a marriage?" Ning Chen nodded and said, "Your Majesty, my Princess Xuan's marriage must be a big deal." "The princess married far away in Nanyue, without any relatives around her, she must be very lonely... I propose that all the adults who advocate marriage, as long as there are daughters over fifteen years old in their families, one by one, go to the princess as a dowry." As soon as these words came out, the officials who advocated peace turned green. How can this be done? That's their daughter, not an item. How can it be used as a dowry, and go to such a far place? Ning Chen looked at Fan Taihe and said, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, Lord Fan's children are all married." Fan Taihe was full of pride, his children were indeed married.
Ning Chen said, "But according to my understanding, Lord Fan has a sixteen-year-old granddaughter who is still unmarried. She can accompany the princess to marry in Nanyue." Fan Taihe's expression was stiff, and he was dumbfounded. "Lord Fan, if your granddaughter is married to the princess, if the fourth prince of Nanyue gets drunk or blind and favors her as a concubine, I will be happy for you." Fan Taihe's face was so ugly. Ning Chen looked at a civil servant and said, "Lord Gou, I remember you have an unmarried daughter, seventeen years old, who can be married to the princess." The latter's old face turned eggplant color, and he was a little angry, "My lord, your surname is Xun." "Uh... Sorry! Forgive me for not knowing many words, so your surname is Xun... It seems that guessing your surname by looking at your face is not accurate at all." Guessing your surname by looking at your face? The latter's lips trembled with anger! The Emperor Xuan coughed tactically, and then said lightly: "I approve of Ning Chen's proposal!" The face of the peace advocate changed drastically. How can this be possible? Although the princess is of noble status, she is not their daughter after all, and marrying her has nothing to do with them. They can ask their daughter or granddaughter to marry, but this is not allowed. Nanyue is thousands of miles away, and I am afraid I will never see her again in my lifetime. Emperor Xuan saw their reactions and sneered in his heart... So you also know how to feel sorry, but not my daughter. In this case, I will send your daughter or granddaughter to Nanyue as a dowry to see if you feel sorry? "Ning Chen, I will leave this matter to you. All the direct daughters of your beloved families who are over 15 years old and not more than 30 years old, as long as they are not married, will be sent to Nanyue to serve Huai'an." The officials of the peace faction turned pale and sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Let Ning Chen do this, I am afraid they will not be able to hide the people even if they want to. The Supervisory Department is responsible for supervising all officials, and the number of people in their families is known to the Supervisory Department. Ning Chen said loudly: "I receive your order! Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely form a dowry group for the princess to ensure that the princess will not be alone in Nanyue." "Your Majesty, I have another suggestion... Let all the adults send a direct male from each family to form a guard group to accompany the princess to Nanyue to protect her safety." The civil and military officials of the peace faction were pale, as if their parents had died. They stared at Ning Chen, wishing they could eat him alive. This move was too cruel! This was absolutely not allowed, and most of them were only sons and grandsons. Wouldn't this make them extinct? Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "I approve!" The officials of the peace faction were shocked, as if they had lost their parents. A civil servant knelt down and said in fear: "Your Majesty, you must not do this. I only have one child in my family. If I go to South Vietnam, won't I be cut off from the incense?" Ning Chen sneered: "This lord, what you said is not appropriate...Marriage is for the sake of the country. Your Majesty has even married off his daughter. Are your children more important than the princess?" "As a minister, you eat the salary of the king, you should share the king's worries and sacrifice for the country...You lords usually shout that you are willing to go through fire and water for your majesty, are you just shouting slogans?" "Now, your majesty needs you, the country needs you...I envy you lords for being able to share your majesty's worries. Unlike me, I have no children at home, and I don't even have the opportunity to share your majesty's worries. My heart is very painful and I am very ashamed!" The officials who advocated peace were so angry that their back teeth were almost broken. The key is that they can't refute Ning Chen's words... It's all because they usually shout slogans too loudly, willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty. If they refute, it will be considered as deceiving the emperor. They stared at Ning Chen fiercely, this boy... is a poisonous snake. Not only does he bite people, but he also disgusts people. This is not over yet. Ning Chen smiled at a civil servant and said with a fist: "Sir Song, I remember that you have two granddaughters who are over 16 years old in your family." "Ning has no children in his family, and I can't share the worries of His Majesty. My heart is very sad... How about this, adopt your granddaughter to me, and I will let her accompany the princess to Nanyue, how about it?" This Sir Song looked ugly as if his wife was gang-raped. He greeted Ning Chen's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart! Is this human language? You use my granddaughter to show your loyalty, are you still a human? The eyes of the ministers looking at Ning Chen changed, it was really poisonous. Even Emperor Xuan's mouth twitched, thinking Ning Chen was really too mean, isn't this just disgusting? However, he loves to watch it, likes to watch it. When it comes to bullying, Ning Chen has to do it. Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "Since all the ministers have agreed to the marriage, let's do it."
"Your Majesty, you must not do that!" "Your Majesty, there is only one child in my family. If I go to Nanyue, my family will be cut off." "Your Majesty, I am old and need my children to take care of me. Please take back your order!" The officials who advocated peace knelt on the ground and begged bitterly. Not to mention marrying one princess, even if it was marrying ten princesses, it would have nothing to do with them. But sending their children to Nanyue as dowry would be cutting their flesh. No, absolutely not! Ning Chen looked at them coldly. He was indifferent when sacrificing others, but once it involved himself, he cried more miserably than a dog. Emperor Xuan was about to speak, but he heard the anxious voice of a little eunuch outside: "Your Highness, Your Highness... You can't go in. Let me inform you." "Get out of the way!" A delicate cry sounded. Ning Chen's mouth slightly raised, and the ninth princess appeared. Emperor Xuan frowned slightly, "Is it Huai'an? Let her in." The Ninth Princess, dressed in red, like a flower on a mountain, with her skirt fluttering, strode in. "Your son, I pay my respects to your father!" The Ninth Princess bowed and saluted. The Emperor Xuan said, "Huai'an, this is the court, why are you here?" The Ninth Princess said, "I heard that your father is discussing the marriage with you adults, and it concerns me, so I came to listen to your opinions." "You adults just said that I have heard it outside the palace." "You adults advocate marriage, and the great Xuan wants to sacrifice a weak woman like me in exchange for ten years of peace in the southern border of the Xuan... I am really a good minister of your father, a real man of the Xuan, and I am really tough." The words, openly mocking and secretly sarcastic, made the officials who advocated peace flushed.
