Therefore, Liu Hong not only did not blame Cao Song for thinking about assembling a team for the prince in advance, but was actually quite pleased.
Three generations of the Cao family were willing to serve their father and son, which also demonstrates the Cao family's loyalty.
Liu Hong nodded with a look of satisfaction: "Minister Cao is very kind. Since that's the case, I will naturally not refuse your good intentions."
However, Mengde's five wives must have their affairs, big and small, properly managed; under no circumstances should this cause any trouble!
"This old minister thanks Your Majesty!!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Song was overjoyed and quickly bowed to express his gratitude.
Liu Hong smiled and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, Minister Cao, you can go ahead and get busy. The imperial edict will be sent over soon!"

The Cao family had been quiet for a long time, but this time, their disturbance was so unimaginable that it completely shattered people's expectations.
The heads of the five families who accepted the Cao family's betrothal gifts were so angry that they wanted to jump off a building.
But there was nothing they could do. The betrothal gifts had been accepted, and the Empress Dowager's decree for the marriage had arrived. They couldn't even cancel the engagement now, and could only start preparing their daughter's dowry with tears in their eyes.
