Chapter 348 Chat with Your Ancestors
"Grandfather Emperor, did Chaochao say something wrong?" The little kid put his hands behind his back and looked at the old emperor and Nan Fengyu timidly.
Their faces were purple and their smiles were a little stiff.
"Chao Chao, the matter of the Queen is of great importance. It cannot be explained in a few words."
"The queen is from the Su family. The Su family is a family of divine servants with pure blood. They have given birth to extremely talented children for the Southern Kingdom. Although I owe Ning Niang, there is no reason for me to depose the queen." How could the emperor depose the queen?
The heir he favored was the one born to Empress Su.
"Grandfather Emperor is right."
"The Imperial Grandmother has made great contributions and cannot be deposed. But Grandmother Ning has also made great contributions, and she saved the Emperor. Moreover, Grandmother Ning also gave birth to a child for you..."
"Can't the Southern Kingdom have two queens?" Many years ago, there was an emperor who established the Queen of the East Palace and the Queen of the West Palace.
The old emperor's eyes couldn't help but turn cold.
“How can it be so easy to be a queen? Madam Ning, a peasant girl without parents and who is not presentable, wants to be a queen? It’s a fantasy! You bring shame to the Southern Kingdom for nothing!” Nan Fengyu couldn’t control herself anymore and shouted angrily.
His eyes were already full of caution when he looked at the people from Beizhao.
Wow, you have a really big heart!
Lu Chaochao curled her lips and said, "I don't have a big heart, it's you who have a small heart!"
It has been a year since Grandmother Ning returned to the Southern Capital, but the old emperor has been suppressing her, not allowing her to have a legitimate status, and keeping her under house arrest without any status.
It’s because I’m on guard against Grandmother Ning.
The old emperor and Grandmother Ning had been married in a formal ceremony and became his legal wife.
According to the laws of the Southern Kingdom, children born to the mother and the queen have equal inheritance rights.
Grandmother Ning did not fight or compete, she just wanted mother and daughter to be reunited. What about them? He actually wanted to kill her!
Why doesn’t Lu Chaochao fight?
She was determined to fight for it, to fight for Grandmother Ning and to make her mother proud.
"Aunt, don't say that. Grandmother Ning is the royal grandfather's legally married wife. You scold her for being unworthy of public appearances and for bringing shame to the South Country. Aren't you scolding the royal grandfather?" the little guy said fearfully.
The old emperor glared at Nan Fengyu fiercely, then smiled and said, "Chao Chao, I also want her to have a proper status."
"But one country has two queens, and I don't have the final say."
"It will take the approval of all the civil and military officials in the court."
"Ask them if they are willing."
The emperor directly threw the mess to the civil and military officials in the court. All the civil and military officials in the court were extremely interested in the strong alliance of the Su-nan bloodline, so naturally they would not agree.
Lu Chaochao pointed at the old man in the front and asked, "Grandpa, do you agree?"
Lord Su chuckled and looked at Lu Chaochao, his brows full of contempt and disdain.
"Princess Zhaoyang, this is not Beizhao. This is not a place where you can act like a spoiled brat."
"Although the current queen is my own daughter, I will say this to be fair. The queen is virtuous, has extraordinary talents, and has given birth to extremely talented offspring for the Southern Kingdom. Why should Ning be on an equal footing with her?"
"So what if she married outside the palace? Her status is not presentable."
Lord Su sneered in his heart, on an equal footing?
She was lucky to have escaped from the fire.
But, so what? Still can't escape death!
Can the arm be twisted over the thigh?
"I don't agree, and the Black Turtle Ancestor I serve in my family won't agree either."
Lu Chaochao looked at the old man on the side again.
"If the Yue family doesn't agree, the Yue family ancestor won't agree either."
"If the Lou family doesn't agree, the Lou family ancestor won't agree either."
"If the Ming family doesn't agree, the Ming family ancestor won't agree either."
"If the Shen family doesn't agree, the Shen family ancestor won't agree either."
"The Sang family does not agree, and the Sang family ancestor will not agree either." Several families rejected it in unison.
Nan Fengyu was the child they had watched grow up, and the crown prince they had chosen. Furthermore, Nan Fengyu has a daughter who is extremely talented and is very likely to be able to summon the gods successfully.
Nowadays, the gods of various families do not accept the descent of God.
They can only pin their hopes on the royal family.
Zongbai, the god served by the royal family, has the highest status. If the god can be summoned successfully, the situation may change.
Everyone thought Lu Chaochao would cry.
Unexpectedly, she smiled and was not angry at all: "Then...then can Chao Chao come to our house to talk to the ancestors about reason?"
"What if you agree?"
Everyone shook their heads and laughed. Lord Su looked at her condescendingly and said, "Okay, Princess Zhaoyang is welcome to my humble home."
"It's just that the Su family's ancestor loves to scare children. Princess, don't be scared to tears."
Lu Chaochao looked at him deeply.
"I won't. Just stop crying."
Lu Chaochao turned to look at the old emperor again: "Grandfather, if Chaochao can convince all the uncles, can Grandmother Ning be the Queen of the West Palace?"
The old emperor's eyes narrowed. Does the little guy know what he is facing?
She was facing the most powerful force in the entire southern country.
Even the old emperor could not influence their opinions.
The old emperor didn't care at all: "Okay, I promise you. If more than half of the civil and military officials in the court agree that Ning should be the Queen of the West Palace, this matter will be up to you."
Lu Chaochao suddenly showed a bright smile.
"Thank you, Grandfather." It was so crisp, as if it had become a word.
The ministers couldn't help but smile slightly. This child thought it was too simple.
At this moment, Xu said slowly: "Your Majesty, what did you agree to let her do? She is only three years old, she does whatever she wants, she has the nature of a child." She glared at Lu Chaochao, pulled her behind her, and stopped her from speaking.
The old emperor glanced at her deeply and waited until Lu Chaochao finished speaking before he intervened. He was also a restless person.
He tucked his eyebrows together and said, "Take them to the back of the palace to rest."
Lu Chaochao shook his head: "Grandfather, Chaochao brought a gift for everyone... It's so precious..."
The emperor nodded: "Present it."
Lu Chaochao waved her hand, and Yu Shu and Yu Qin went up to the palace carrying the brocade box.
"Chao Chao didn't expect there would be so many uncles and aunts. I wonder if it's enough..."
"This is a little gift that Chaochao prepared for everyone. I hope the uncles and aunts like it..." The little guy looked at everyone eagerly.
She even picked up a bag and ran to Nan Fengyu with her short legs: "Auntie, this is Chao Chao's gift to you..."
The little guy stood on tiptoe and watched expectantly.
Nan Fengyu frowned: "What is this?"
Nan Mubai smiled and said, "Mother, these are small stones picked up by Princess Zhaoyang. It is said that she carefully selected each one."
Lu Chaochao nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, the shiny stones are so beautiful."
"Chao Chao picked the biggest and brightest stone."
"Aunt, this is for you." Although she didn't like Nan Fengyu, she had to give her a gift when they first met.
This is her manners.
Nan Fengyu glanced at her disdainfully, and then she tiptoed and tremblingly handed over the brocade box.
In public, Nan Fengyu directly declined.
"Forget it. How can I accept a gift from your junior? You can give it to someone else..." He had a smile on his face and there was nothing wrong with him.
Lu Chaochao's face fell.
Is there really no one who wants it?
