"Your Majesty, do you have someone in mind?"
The boy's clear and melodious voice, like a mountain spring, instantly eased the atmosphere.
The courtiers, who had not expected to be suppressed by the Empress, looked at her in surprise.
Since the Empress has rejected the ministers' opinions, could she find someone herself who could take on the important task of controlling the floods?
Fu Sang then passed the question to the little darling next to him.
"Whom does Your Majesty think is the best to go?"
Jiang Linxian's mother was a great general, and the entire family's power was the greatest in Shuiyun Kingdom. Subjects would subconsciously try to curry favor with him.
Her words, spoken by an emperor, probably carried less weight than those of Jiang Linxian.
Therefore, this person should be chosen by the little darling.
The officials could only vaguely see the handsome figure of the young man through the screen. He was as elegant as bamboo and his extraordinary demeanor was convincing.
As expected, Jiang Linxian was well-prepared and uttered a statement that left the assembled officials with no room for rebuttal.
This person held a low-ranking official position, but was meticulous in his work and never made a mistake.
Half an hour later.
After the morning court session ended, the officials left the main hall one after another.
Fu Sang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had managed to control the situation. He had used the greed of the petty people to make an example of them and deterred the ministers.
I imagine things will go much more smoothly when I attend court in the future.
Being an emperor is no easy task. It's still a long way off before he can change his image in the eyes of his subjects. He needs to work even harder in the future.
After several days of attending court, the ministers in the court gradually changed their opinions of her.
Fu Sang sat in a chair in the imperial study.
Lianxiang suddenly walked in with a joyful expression and said, "Your Majesty, I have good news."
"Hmm?" Fu Sang asked, puzzled.
Lianxiang said as if she were about to set off firecrackers in celebration, "The Queen has decided to consummate our marriage tonight."
"..."
The original owner only liked collecting handsome men, but never actually touched any of them, let alone someone as aloof as Jiang Linxian.
Fu Sang asked with some surprise, "Isn't the decision about consummating the marriage mys to make?"
"Your Majesty," Lianxiang reminded him helplessly, "the matter of the concubines serving the emperor in bed is entirely arranged by the Empress."
Fu Sang suddenly realized and said, "It can only be him who arranges who I sleep with?"
The words were so blunt that Lianxiang blushed.
"Your queen is your rightful husband. Only after you consummate your marriage with him can you favor other princes."
"...So that's how it is."
Lianxiang was still very excited and said, "This servant will go and make the arrangements right away."
Fu Sang cupped her face in her hands, then belatedly blushed.
It's just sleeping, why make such a big deal out of it? It's so embarrassing.
I waited for a while.
Fu Sang suddenly remembered Xiao Guai Guai's body.
"Someone come here."
A young female official walked in from outside.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Fu Sang emerged from behind his desk and said, "Prepare the carriage for the Queen's palace; I wish to see her."
After boarding the imperial carriage, Her Majesty the Empress hurriedly went to find the Queen.
About fifteen minutes.
Fu Sang alighted from the imperial carriage and strode into the palace.
The attendant quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Get up." Fu Sang waved his hand and asked, "Where is Lin Xian?"
The attendant led Fu Sang into the study in the side hall.
The handsome young man sat behind his desk, holding a yellow memorial in his hand, his eyes lowered as he read it attentively.
Fu Sang was stunned for a moment, then went up to him.
Jiang Linxian noticed her arrival, put down the memorial in his hand, and said, "Your Majesty."
Fu Sang hesitated, somewhat embarrassed to speak.
Should I ask...?
-Are you capable of consummating our marriage tonight?
- Won't you faint while doing this?
-Maybe we should just forget about it.
