"The Master and the Queen Mother's faction have been at loggerheads for years. How could she let the Master get what he wants?"
Zhou Ru patiently coaxed him, "Prince Yongning is originally just a lesser-known member of the royal family. Why don't you take advantage of your current power and choose a capable member of the royal family for marriage?"
Ji Yuan frowned slightly: "Where else can you find a suitable royal family member?"
Although he was the chief minister, not all members of the royal family could take charge.
"How is Prince Qi?"
Zhou Ru leaned her soft body into Ji Yuan's arms, her naturally charming voice soft and tender.
"I have heard that Prince Qi is not favored by the Queen Mother, and I have long wanted to establish a friendship with you. If we marry into the Prince Qi's Mansion at this time, it will not only help Your Majesty to weigh the power of the court, but also protect the future wealth of our Ji family."
"Prince Qi?" Ji Yuan was in hesitation.

After all, she is the only legitimate daughter of our Ji family. If she marries, she will be the princess's principal wife. With the master's protection, who would dare to make things difficult for her?"
After hearing these words, Ji Yuan was already moved.
Twirling his beard lightly, he said suspiciously, "What you say is indeed a safe approach, but Wanwan just returned home, and I'm worried that she might reject this marriage, which would be a minor issue, but it would also hurt the relationship between father and daughter again."
"Master, don't worry. We are all women. I have a way to make the young lady willingly marry into Prince Qi's mansion."
Zhou Ru's resolute tone finally made Ji Yuan compromise: "You can try it, but you must not force Wanwan."
"I've made note of this."
Zhou Ru answered readily, but she already had her own plan in mind.
