Yu Jinshu had a righteous look on her face and a serious expression on her pretty face.
She glanced around at the ministers in the hall. "Since the earliest common ruler of the world, the kings have implemented the system of abdication. You all know the story of the three sages Yao, Shun and Yu abdicating."
"Ah! Princess Diji means to promote a capable person to be the monarch of Nangan Kingdom."
Yu Jinshu narrowed her eyes slightly: "Not the monarch of Nangan Kingdom, but the monarch of the entire world."
The ministers stared at Yu Jinshu with wide eyes, with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
Yu Jinshu said frankly, "Your guess is correct. I came back this time with two plans. The first plan was just mentioned. If the emperor treats me well, I will discuss with him about peaceful coexistence between our two countries. The second plan is that if the emperor insists on me helping him fight and unify the world, then I feel that he cannot be the one to unify the world, because he is too unworthy of the task."
A minister said, "I understand, Princess Di, you think that if the world is truly to be unified, the emperor of Beiyue Kingdom, your husband, must be the emperor."
He kowtowed to Feng Yu and said, "Since ascending the throne, the current Emperor of Beiyue has implemented many good policies, such as banning the slave trade of the poor, reducing taxes, and amending inappropriate laws. We have discussed these matters with the Emperor, but he disagrees."
Another minister said, "Now that the princess is the Queen of Beiyue, if the two countries were united, there would be no war for a hundred years, not to mention forever. Isn't this the result we strive for day and night?"
As a minister who truly cares about the people, what he wants is not peaceful coexistence in the world and the people living and working in peace and contentment?
The ministers did not care what the surnames of the people in the world were, they only cared about what kind of wise ruler they followed.
Several ministers then bowed to Feng Yu and said, "Please ask the Emperor of Beiyue to unify the two countries of Beiyue and Nangan, so that the people of the world can rest and recuperate, and there will be no more wars."
Feng Yu stepped forward and raised his hand: "You two should stand up and talk first."
The ministers knelt for a long time, then stood up while rubbing their knees.
Feng Yu spread his hands, his loose robe wrapped around his handsome body, and his handsome face showed fortitude and righteousness.
"I came to the Nangan Kingdom's imperial court this time for no other reason than to protect my wife."
Feng Yu said as he walked over to Yu Jinshu, glancing at her belly. "Your Princess Rouhua, my empress, is pregnant. I dare not allow her to suffer any misfortune. However, as the Emperor of Beiyue Nation, entering this imperial city would surely be frowned upon. So, I have laid down my weapons and entered the palace alone to protect my wife."
He looked at Yu Jinshu, and the two looked at each other tenderly.
He looked at the ministers again, "Just now you talked about unifying the world. This is naturally the best way for the people of both countries to recuperate and coexist peacefully. I boast that I am capable of governing your Nangan Kingdom well and ensuring that the people live a good life. However, I don't want my wife to bear the stigma of our family, so I have come up with a plan that will satisfy both sides."
Yu Jinshu was very surprised and wondered what plan he had come up with.
The ministers also became excited, as if the Emperor of Beiyue Kingdom was truly extraordinary and a wise ruler.
Feng Yu said, "As the Emperor of Beiyue, I will assist the Empress's motherland in governing for a period of one year. If you can see my achievements within this year, I will move the capital to the middle of the two countries, merge them into one, and change the country's name. There will no longer be Beiyue and Nangan in this world, only one new country. This way, it will also be fair to Nangan. I will also treat the Yu family of Nangan as the same as the Beiyue royal family."
He paused, "If within a year, I have no achievements in Nangan, or if my achievements are not enough to gain recognition from the court and the people, then I will no longer be involved in Nangan's affairs. However, as long as Nangan does not invade Beiyue, Beiyue will definitely not invade Nangan."
When the ministers heard this, they were all happy.
After they discussed it, a minister bowed and said, "We, the subjects, request that the Emperor of Beiyue Kingdom take over the administration of Nangan Kingdom for a period of one year. If the Emperor can do practical things for the people of Nangan Kingdom, we will definitely help the Emperor unify Nangan and Beiyue, change the name of the country, and establish a new country."
After saying that, he knelt down towards Feng Yu.
The other ministers all knelt down in agreement, but Lu Jinan just stood there, not knowing whether to kneel or not. Finally, he was pulled down to his knees by a minister next to him.
Lu Jinan was unwilling to accept this. Princess Rouhua was clearly his fiancée, and now she was pregnant with the Emperor of Beiyue Kingdom.
What made him even more unwilling was that his fiancée, who was supposed to submit to him, became the empress whom he had to kneel down to worship every day.
But what if he was unwilling? Princess Rouhua had the Snake King to protect her, and he didn't want to end up like Yu Xiaoyun, with his head torn apart.
That's just too scary. It would be better for him to just be a coward.
Yu Jinshu looked at the harmonious scene in the hall, then looked at Feng Yu, and the two smiled at each other.
Feng Yu asked all the ministers to stand up.
Yu Jinshu ordered the imperial guards to clean up Yu Xiaoyun's body, but since he was his brother after all, he had to be buried with the rites of a state funeral.
Yu Jinshu and Feng Yu gathered all the ministers together to discuss the next affairs of Nangan Kingdom.
"Princess, everything that happened here must be spread out in full. Only in this way can the people accept that the Emperor of Beiyue Kingdom will temporarily govern Nangan Kingdom for a year. Otherwise, Nangan Kingdom will be in chaos."
"That's not right. There have been some unruly people in Nangan Country who are planning to revolt. If this gets out, they'll have an excuse."
"To prevent Nangan from falling into chaos, in my humble opinion, we must first allow Princess Rouhua to ascend the throne as empress. As for the Emperor of Beiyue ruling on her behalf, we will put that aside for now. We will discuss it later when good policies are announced and effective."
This last sentence was approved by all the ministers.
Feng Yu said, "That's all very well, but won't my wife have to stay in Nangan Country?"
He couldn't ignore Beiyue Country, nor could he let his wife stay in Nangan Country.
Speaking of which, this is really a headache.
Yu Jinshu looked at Feng Yu and said, "A year will pass quickly. It's not a bad idea for me to stay here."
Feng Yu looked at her, his face full of worry: "You are pregnant and you are alone. I am worried."
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "What's there to worry about? I have the Snake King to protect me! He's much more powerful than you."
Feng Yu nodded: "What you said makes sense, but I'm still worried." Mainly because he couldn't bear to let go.
A minister bowed to Feng Yu and said, "Your Majesty, this is also for the sake of the peace of Nangan Kingdom. Please consider the overall interests of Nangan Kingdom first."
Feng Yu looked at these ministers. He knew very well that it would be most appropriate to let Jinshu become the empress to stabilize the people's hearts in Nangan Kingdom.
In front of the country, personal affairs are trivial.
