Guiqian is located in the south, the weather is hot, and the dishes are on the light side. The dishes at the palace banquet also follow this route, the dishes are rich but on the light side.
According to the example, Tang Jiuge needs to say a few words before officially using the chopsticks.
He was sitting on a big chair and said to everyone: "The Crown Princess is in good health and can handle state affairs."
"I declare that from now on, the Crown Princess will officially supervise the country."
"I only have a little bit of her flesh and bones, so I usually neglect her."
"Fortunately, she is smart, alert, generous and kind, and her talent and knowledge are far better than when I was young."
"I believe that she will definitely become a wise king of the country with the help of all my beloved ladies in the future."
These words did not exceed the expectations of the ministers. They all expressed their determination to Tang Miao: "I will do my best to assist the imperial concubine in supervising the country!"
"The Crown Princess is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
After everyone finished speaking, they stood up and saluted her again.
Tang Jiuge nodded lightly at everyone's reaction and looked at Tang Miaoxin.
Tang Miaoxin sat upright, showed the magnanimity that a prince of a country should have, stood up and said to the ministers: "Gui Qian's national power is growing day by day."
"I hereby swear that as the crown prince, I am willing to establish my heart for heaven and earth, my destiny for the people, and create peace for all generations!"
When Cheng Lixue heard this, she felt something in her heart. Tang Miaoxin shortened the four sentences of Hengqu by Zhang Zai of the Northern Song Dynasty into three sentences, and suddenly they became words suitable for the prince.
He knew Tang Miaoxin's ability. If she was serious about becoming her crown prince, she might really be able to do this.
The atmosphere at this time was solemn and passionate, and he decided to help her.
He stood up and prostrated to the ground again: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, and create peace for all generations!"
After he bowed like this, all the ministers followed him and fell to the ground again, saying loudly: "Establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, and create peace for all generations!"
Ning Guzhou and Su Letian were watching this scene, and both of them were a little shocked.
When the normally carefree Tang Miaoxin said such words, they were extremely lethal.
Both of them have high status and have their own understanding of national affairs.
What they have done over the years is essentially the same as what Tang Miaoxin said just now.
Both of them felt a little proud, worthy of being his daughter-in-law (sister).
Tang Miaoxin picked up the wine cup and toasted to everyone: "I would like to toast you all here. The people who have returned to Qian for generations have thanked you!"
Everyone stood up, picked up the wine cups and drank all the wine in one gulp.
Tang Jiuge was very pleased to see her magnanimous bearing and measured advance and retreat.
He just said that as long as she wanted to, she could do everything.
These ministers in the court are definitely not something she can conquer with just one sentence. She still has a lot to work hard on in the future.
Today is just the beginning.
After everyone sat down again, someone stood up and said: "Since the Crown Princess is in good health, she will start to supervise the country."
"Then considering the overall situation, it's time to recruit the emperor's husband."
Someone immediately responded: "Four years ago, the king recruited a husband for the princess, and Mr. Ji was finally selected."
"I heard that Mr. Ji is not in good health and is not suitable to serve the Crown Princess. He still has no status."
"Although the Crown Princess already has a young son, it is far from enough. The Crown Prince is thin and the royal family still needs more branches."
This statement was immediately echoed by other ministers.
The ministers spoke impassionedly and began to recommend their descendants.
When Tang Miaoxin heard what they said, she asked Tang Jiuge: "Dad, when you succeeded to the throne, when they asked you to marry the queen, how did you refuse?"
Tang Jiuge replied: "It's simple, just kill the leading people."
"Then I will let out the news that I will choose an outstanding young master from among the ministers to adopt me and inherit the throne."
"Although I didn't choose anyone in the end, when I was in power, I would kill anyone who disobeyed, so they wouldn't dare to make mistakes."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
Her father is done for!
Tang Jiuge said softly: "Back then, I only had your mother in my heart, and I never thought about having a queen. It doesn't matter how I do it."
"You have Ning Guzhou in your heart, so you have to find a way to solve this problem yourself."
Tang Miaoxin looked at him and asked, "Dad, are you doing this on purpose?"
Tang Jiuge shook his head: "This is really not intentional, I just expected it."
"When you become the crown prince of a country, you don't have the final say on many things alone."
"The status of the king of a country seems to be precious, but there are also many helplessness and some things that have to be compromised."
"If you don't want to compromise, then you have to be the most powerful person and let everyone listen to you."
Tang Miaoxin's eyes narrowed slightly.
Throughout five thousand years of history, emperors and ministers of each dynasty and each generation had different ways of getting along with each other.
A strong emperor makes his ministers bow down, while a weak emperor is manipulated by his ministers.
Many emperors had to give up something in order to balance the situation.
She asked Tang Jiuge: "Dad has been the emperor of Gui Qian for so many years. Have you ever given in?"
Tang Jiuge said very calmly: "If being an emperor requires all kinds of concessions, then why do you still need to be an emperor?"
Tang Miaoxin laughed: "Dad chose to announce the news at the dinner instead of announcing it in the court. Is he supporting me in making my own choice in disguise?"
If it is announced in the court that she has begun to supervise the country, and the ministers of the court ask her to marry the emperor on the spot, then it is a state matter.
For the sake of the prince's demeanor, she was reluctant to roll up her sleeves and just go up and beat someone up.
And in a place like a dinner party, if she is unhappy, it will be much easier to deal with it.
Tang Jiuge raised his eyebrows lightly: "If you think so, then so be it!"
Tang Miaoxin immediately understood what Tang Jiuge meant. He really had no objection to her being with Ning Guzhou.
But the prerequisite is that she and Ning Guzhou have to deal with the ministers who have illusions.
This matter was tailor-made for Tang Jiuge, the first thing she had to do after becoming the crown prince.
There is no way she would give in at all on this matter!
This was the first lesson her father taught her after she became the crown prince.
The ministers in the audience have themselves selected more than ten men with upright appearance and outstanding abilities.
Tang Miaoxin's eyes swept over them, and it had to be said that these ministers were also capable people.
At first glance, it seems that these men have carefully selected them, and they have a variety of styles.
If Tang Miaoxin didn't like Ning Guzhou, she would really be able to dazzle them if they were put in front of her like this.
She belatedly discovered that she could actually have a harem!
A courtier stood up and smiled and said to Tang Miaoxin: "These are the best men we have returned to Qian. Your Highness can choose at will."
"Whether His Highness likes one of them, or several of them, I believe that both the king and their families will be happy to see it happen."
These words immediately received responses from other ministers.
The men stood there openly and looked at Tang Miaoxin with smiles.
