Female special forces soldiers in ancient times

The Golden Palace of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Because of some major recent event, all the officials in the court...

They weren't particularly interested in talking about anything; they mostly just chatted about mundane things.

Li Tingting was almost falling asleep listening to this, and she thought to herself, "What is this damn emperor up to?"

Are you implying I'm too idle? It's nothing, you even asked me to attend court.

After the emperor determined that the time was right, he surveyed his ministers with a serious gaze.

Seeing the emperor's serious expression, the officials immediately fell silent.

Quietly prepare to listen to the emperor's statement.

Sure enough, the emperor soon spoke, causing an uproar throughout the court.

"My beloved ministers, I announced half a year ago that my three princes would participate in state affairs."

Now that half a year has passed, I would like to hear my beloved ministers' opinions on the three princes.

So that I may consider the matter of establishing a crown prince.

The emperor's words immediately caused an uproar in the court.

The ministers immediately began whispering among themselves, each with their own plans.

Seeing that everyone was busy discussing and had no intention of expressing their opinion, Wu Lixin...

He was the first to step forward, bowing respectfully to the emperor.

He then began to speak eloquently, "Your Majesty, although this matter has been over for half a year..."

The matter of establishing a crown prince concerns a matter of great national importance and must be approached with utmost care.

Your humble servant believes it is best to wait until the observation period is complete for a full year before making a decision.

Moreover, all three princes were exceptionally talented, kind, and benevolent.

If I had to choose one, I believe the Second Prince is the most outstanding.

As soon as he finished speaking, the already buzzing crowd erupted into even greater commotion.

Wang Chengxiang was completely dumbfounded on the spot. "Old Wu, what are you doing?"

Haven't we brothers always been secretly supporting the Crown Prince?

Why are you suddenly supporting the Second Prince?

The two Li brothers looked at each other, wondering what was going on.

Li Zhong thought to himself, "Could it be that you saw the First Prince become our family's nephew-in-law?"

Are you feeling envious? If you're uncomfortable, you can say so privately.

Li Xiang was also completely baffled, because in his mind,

Regardless of whether he liked it or not, after the eldest prince married Li Qianqian,

Even if the Li family didn't want to support the eldest prince, they couldn't. Why did Wu Lixin suddenly change his mind?

Li Tingting looked left and right, clicking her tongue in disbelief. No wonder the dog emperor brought this up today.

It turned out that the eldest prince had taken Li Qianqian to the general's mansion for her homecoming visit.

The remaining two princes were also sent away to do other official duties.

That's why he started to get some information and find out what was going on.

As for the other officials, although they also found it strange, none of them dared to say anything.

But no one expected that Wu Lixin was actually acting on orders from Consort Zhen.

That's why he started supporting the Second Prince today.

After all, the Second Prince had fully satisfied Li Qianqian's desires at noon on the day of her wedding.

It made her unable to stop, and she kept savoring the experience.

Therefore, without hesitation, Consort Zhen persuaded the Wu family to start supporting the Second Prince.

The emperor was completely taken aback after hearing Wu Lixin's suggestion.

He had originally thought that the eldest prince would definitely win.

The emperor frowned and looked at Wu Lixin. "Minister Wu's suggestion..."

"I will certainly consider it carefully." He then looked at the crowd.

"Hmm, I would like to hear if you, my esteemed ministers, have any other opinions?"

After he finished speaking, seeing that no one responded for a long time, he simply called on people to answer.

"Prime Minister Wang, please tell me your opinion."

"Your Majesty, this old minister is also in a dilemma. After all, the three princes are indeed as Lord Wu described."

They are all very talented; perhaps we should observe them for another six months.

Let's see how they perform afterward before making a decision.

Prime Minister Wang was a cunning old fox; although he hadn't yet figured out Wu Lixin's meaning...

However, he neither refuted nor immediately agreed, choosing to remain neutral.

The emperor's expression softened slightly after hearing this. "Tch! It's like he said nothing at all."

However, since your two families haven't teamed up, I'm relieved.

Although the emperor did not understand what Prime Minister Wang meant.

But Li Tingting immediately saw through Prime Minister Wang's little scheme.

It's simply that Wu Lixin's words today were not discussed beforehand by the two families.

We need to wait until they've discussed it and come to a decision before deciding who to support.

The emperor, of course, had no idea what Li Tingting was thinking.

He then went through the formalities and inquired about the Li family's opinion.

Then he looked at Li Zhong and his brother, "My two beloved ministers of the Li family..."

What do you think?

Li Zhong stepped forward expressionlessly. "Your Majesty, regarding the matter of establishing a crown prince..."

This is a matter of great importance to the nation. Your Majesty, I would like to seek the advice of your esteemed officials.

"Yes, yes! Your Majesty, there are still six months left."

"It's too early. Let's wait until a year has passed before we talk about it!" Li Xiang quickly chimed in.

The emperor sneered inwardly; they were all cunning enough to be the most sly of the brothers. In reality, the Li brothers wanted to support the eldest prince.

They've just become in-laws, so they're too shy to show it right away.

However, whatever the case, at least the ministers didn't form a clique.

The emperor felt a little relieved, and since he was also tired, he simply waved his hand and announced the end of the court session.

However, not long after everyone left, Li Tingting was summoned back by the emperor.

After she entered the study, just as she was about to bow in greeting,

The emperor, without even looking up, waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright."

"No need for formalities. It seems you, Li Tingting, have never been polite to me either."

"puff......."

Li Tingting burst out laughing on the spot, "Your Majesty, you have wronged this humble general!"

"I am utterly loyal to you."

"Hmph! I didn't summon you here today to hear your pledge of loyalty."

"You've seen what happened in court just now. What are your thoughts?"

Li Tingting pouted, "Your Majesty, that's your family matter."

"Isn't it up to you to decide who becomes the crown prince?"

"Oh, then you tell me, should I consider making the Second Prince the Crown Prince?"

"What?" Li Tingting's eyes widened immediately.

"What nonsense are you spouting? Your Majesty, you haven't been persuaded by that old man from the Wu family, have you?"

"Haha, I just said something, and it made you so anxious."

You're still thinking of supporting your brother-in-law, aren't you?

Upon seeing Li Tingting's expression, the emperor immediately burst into laughter.

"Your Majesty, please give your orders immediately! This humble general is eager to go home and see his family."

Today, my brother-in-law, who is also your eldest son, is bringing my sister to my house for her homecoming visit.

Li Tingting was immediately embarrassed and angry when she saw that the dog emperor had teased her.

Seeing this, the emperor immediately wiped the smile off his face. "The assassin from that night..."

How's your investigation going?

"Your Majesty, I have deployed both overt and covert sentries over the past few days."

No findings were made.
