And because of this incident, the empress felt guilty towards Chu Ci.
Taking this opportunity, Chu Ci proposed to marry Xiao Qi as her husband.
The empress hesitated.
Although I have always believed that it would be best for the Xiao family to become a member of Prince Gong's faction, Prime Minister Xiao also said so, and Chu Ci also said so.
When she ordered a thorough investigation, she also saw what Chu Ci had done over the years. Some of the things that seemed stupid were actually the smartest approaches in the long run.
It seems that she, who was appointed as the crown princess at that time, was not so useless.
In addition, this time, the guards she arranged were not strict enough, and they didn't even catch a single person alive, and didn't find any information at all. In the end, the thorough investigation was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
I felt somewhat guilty, but I finally agreed.
An order was issued to the Ministry of Rites to select a date and make arrangements.
It didn't take long before the whole capital knew about it.
However, apart from a few princesses, not many people in the capital really care about this matter. They just treat it as a topic of conversation after dinner.
It’s probably because the Crown Princess is already at this age and has finally married a husband.
As for several princesses and people like Hu Tianhao.
This decree made people feel very uncomfortable.
Of course, this is not the most sensational thing.
After the decree was issued, Chu Ci came to the Prime Minister's Mansion with the prepared betrothal gifts.
Visit in person.
The betrothal gifts were so numerous that it was dizzying. When the empress married the queen, the standard was probably around the same.
And it looks like there's even more.
It filled up such a huge house.
I don’t know where Chu Ci got so many things from.
It's as if all the family assets are going to be drained out at once.
There was someone from the Ministry of Rites from Prince Gong's faction who reported Chu Ci for his behavior.
However, recently the empress had been feeling in debt, so occasionally when she left court, she would keep Chu Ci to listen to his understanding of some political affairs.
Especially when the empress discovered that when Chu Ci handled these political affairs before, his methods always hit the key points.
Asking something, even if it is not clear at the beginning, can make people feel enlightened in the end.
So my opinion of Chu Ci naturally changed a lot.
During the Dafeng Dynasty, girls could marry at the age of fifteen.
However, Chu Ci delayed it for three years due to health reasons.
It's understandable that she's a little happy. Just give her more. At worst, she can reward you more later.
Thinking of this, the empress chose Chu Ci between Chu Ci and Chu Mu for the first time.
At this moment, Xiaoqi's love value has risen to 81.
During the previous thorough investigation, there were a few officials who refused to let go of Prime Minister Xiao.
But after the search, no problems were found.
The group of people were confused, but they had no idea that when they asked someone to search Xiao's house, Chu Ci had already asked for permission to search the homes of these officials in the same way for the sake of fairness.
Because it was a secret request, the officials had no idea of this situation.
Some officials were more cautious and hid things very carefully.
However, some people were rather careless, and many things were dug out before they could be transferred.
For example, bribes received from countries outside the empire, and various things that have not yet been completed in order to frame opponents.
Moreover, these officials are the staff of the Third Princess.
