Chapter 1417: Chapter 1416 Lingjiu Hall, to them, is the sacred temple
Everyone’s attention was suddenly drawn to Lingjiu Hall.
What exactly is the state of the National Advisor now?
Not only do the people on Prince Yu’s side want to know, but others also want to figure it out.
No matter their allegiance, the National Advisor is too important for the Nanming.
"Your Majesty," someone among the ministers whispered, "Your Majesty, what exactly is the situation with the National Advisor now?"
"The National Advisor was greatly weakened by spiritual qi while performing magic to verify my identity for the Princess, and is still recuperating," said Chu Qianli.
Prince Yu snorted coldly, "Princess, why did I hear that the National Advisor has already left Lingjiu Hall?"
"The National Advisor is still in Lingjiu Hall, when did he ever leave?"
"I personally saw him leave with a man in black," Lan Fan stepped forward, and said coldly, "Princess, is the man in black your companion?"
The National Advisor was taken away by a man in black?
There seemed to have been rumors before, but no one knew if they were true.
What is the truth of this matter?
Everyone stared at Chu Qianli.
Yet, Chu Qianli remained calm, far exceeding her age in composure, which gave everyone a subconscious sense of security.
Previously, people didn’t believe, but now seeing their princess, the people gradually accepted it.
Indeed, disposition is inherent and innate.
"Prince Yu, why not be straightforward and speak your mind," said Chu Qianli.
Prince Yu snorted, always showing a touch of disdain for her.
He wanted to speak directly with the Emperor, but today the Emperor acted like an outsider, clearly having delegated all matters large and small on the court to Chu Qianli.
Just a mere princess!
Yet, strangely, no one else dared to utter a word of dissent in the hall.
If everyone else wouldn’t speak, then he would.
"Regardless of why the National Advisor was heavily injured, it is a fact that he is heavily injured. Since the National Advisor cannot manage Lingjiu Hall for the moment, Lingjiu Hall must have a new master."
Prince Yu looked at Lan Fan, then swept his gaze over everyone in the court.
"With Lingjiu Hall empty, shouldn’t everyone’s heart feel uneasy?"
No one dared to speak.
How important Lingjiu Hall is to Nanming!
Who in the entire nation does not admire the National Advisor?
Yet they admire the position of National Advisor, not the person.
If this person is no longer capable of being the National Advisor, then the capable should take his place.
Lan Fan performed magic in Xinhua Village, reassuring the people, and though no one knows the actual effect, it’s a fact Xinhua Village’s epidemic has completely improved.
Who can say the improvement of Xinhua Village isn’t due to Lan Fan’s achievements?
Although Chu Qianli is an atheist, she also understands that for the people of Nanming, Lingjiu Hall is akin to a temple.
Belief, if you have it, is divine, no one can overturn it.
Not even the Emperor.
"So, Uncle’s intention is to find a new master for Lingjiu Hall?" she asked calmly.
Prince Yu’s voice deepened, "What qualifications does this king have to choose a master for Lingjiu Hall? The affairs of Lingjiu Hall, this king has no authority to intervene."
"So then..."
"But this king believes that since Mr. Lan is the senior brother of the National Advisor, naturally his abilities are not below that of the National Advisor. Mr. Lan has achieved great success in the matter of the moat collapse, if indeed the National Advisor has lost the ability to govern Lingjiu Hall, then it would be most appropriate for Mr. Lan to become the new master of Lingjiu Hall."
