Chapter 266: really do not avoid suspicion
Duke Dingguo was dragged away, the three ministers were demoted to the border, and the atmosphere in the main hall was inexplicably serious and tense.
"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, the minister will retire!" Ning Xi accepted it when he saw it.
Jing Ruofeng took a sip from the teacup, smiling but not smiling, "Why, you want to slip away after stabbing the basket?"
Ning Xi shrugged, "Didn't I see that the emperor and several ministers have something to do."
"It's not a big deal, it's mainly about going to participate in the Three Kingdoms War Beast Tournament in the next two days. You should also go to the competition and stay and listen to it." Jing Ruofeng said.
Ning Xi smiled and nodded: "Then I'll listen!"
Jing Ruofeng discussed with several ministers, such as how to distribute them, etc.
About half an hour or so, several talents discussed the competition matters.
Yan Qin glanced at Ning Xi obscurely, and stepped out of the queue to speak to the emperor, "Your Majesty, which prince will you let along this time?"
This means that the exchange and travel between countries must be followed by princes. Naturally, whoever goes with them will have great benefits, at least it can be regarded as the recognition of an identity from other countries.
Jing Ruofeng was also considering this question, and asked with a smile, "What do you think about it?"
Ning Xi said straightforwardly without hesitation: "Of course it's the crown prince!"
"..." Several ministers standing below twitched their mouths, Ning Xiaowang really did not avoid suspicion!
Jing Rufeng laughed: "Then why do you want to be a prince?"
He knew that Ning Xi's temperament couldn't contain words and things, at least Ning Xi never concealed her intentions in front of him, which made Jing Ruofeng feel more at ease and like her.
"Firstly, because he is the crown prince, it is more appropriate to attend such a competition; secondly, since he is my cousin, of course I would recommend him." Ning Xi said with a smile.
If several important officials looked at Ning Xi meaningfully, some were not sure that her mind was so carefree and simple, or she completely grasped the emperor's preferences.
Jing Ruofeng rolled her eyes at her angrily, "Stinky boy!" Obviously, he wasn't angry at Ning Xi's cronyism at all.
"What do you love about it?"
Zuo Xiang is an old man in his fifties, he said, "According to his identity, the prince is indeed a suitable candidate, but now he is managing the flood in other places, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out!"
"Then which prince does Aiqing think would be better to go with?" Jing Ruofeng asked with a light smile.
"The crown prince and the third prince are both dealing with the flood. Now the prince who has grown up in the palace is only the first prince." Zuo Xiang's meaning is obvious.
There were two ministers who were more inclined towards the third prince and frowned unconsciously when they heard his words, but it was not easy to go forward and recommend it. After all, the third prince was also dealing with the flood, but he felt that it would be too much to give up this opportunity. Pity.
Jing Ruofeng rubbed the edge of the tea without speaking, as if he was thinking.
Seeing this, Ning Xi could roughly guess that the emperor didn't want the eldest prince to follow him. The matter of Ding Guogong must have something to do with the eldest prince. The emperor was probably bothering the eldest prince now.
"The flood recurs every year, so it's okay for the prince to take a break to participate in the Three Kingdoms War Beast Tournament. I believe other officials can also deal with those things temporarily, otherwise what's the use of them?" Ning Xi's position was very clear.
It stands to reason that the emperor is still in his prime, so there is no need to rush the team, but Prince Ning's mansion has long been tied to the prince's warship, and Ning Xi is not going to change the ship.
The eldest prince and the third prince are too much in the limelight. It must be clear to the emperor to secretly form a party with courtiers for personal gain. Therefore, the prince needs a strong support from someone with a high status, so as to balance the court situation, Ning Xi voluntarily walked out and did that. a knife.
