Was this granted marriage only a verbal decree, or was there already an imperial edict?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if there was an imperial edict, a princess’s marriage alliance is a major state affair.

Did she never think that her father wanted to reclaim her power, thinking she was different?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not many new powerful families had emerged, and the old ones had died or been injured; after the sixty-year purge, life was truly difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could it compare to the era of Emperor Wen? Although Emperor Wen led by example in frugality, he did not force his ministers to do the same. Frugal or not, behind closed doors, couldn't one still live a carefree life?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Emperor Jing had issued an edict, the Princess had requested it, and it could bring peace; what was there to oppose?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opposition mainly came from the East Sea and certain hardline pro-war factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially certain ritualist ministers who believed the Southern Barbarians were savages; how could they marry Princess Youruo, the Eldest Princess, to them? Wasn't that a defilement?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Emperor Wen had only found a woman with thin blood ties from the Ji royal family, temporarily added the title of Princess, and married her off; even then, it had been criticized for a thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fortunately, the results I achieved during the Dragon Court trip reduced the Southern Barbarian threat, otherwise there would likely be even more supporters now,\" Zhao Xing thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fulfilling the wishes of Princess Youruo and Liu Tianning will be much less difficult than in the previous life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were the normal trajectory, during the last Dragon Court trip, Bai Yunwu was besieged, and the Great Zhou’s contest with the hostile alliance was roughly a fifty-fifty split on paper; with so many high-grade officials dead, he would certainly have been criticized for being bellicose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although a bunch of people still died in this life, the harvest Zhao Xing brought back was too great! It was enough to cover the impact caused by the death of those 400 high-grade officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the overall situation of the Great Zhou, the situation in the two lives was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, those supporting Princess Youruo’s marriage still outweigh those who oppose it.\" Zhao Xing’s many clones went to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites to inquire about news. \"Emperor Jing issued the edict, the Princess requested it; those who oppose the marriage alliance have no confidence, and they are also terrified of Emperor Jing’s killing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The memorial still needs to be submitted; let's try it first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Fengchang Grand Master and someone who walks in the imperial palace, there was nothing wrong with Zhao Xing submitting this memorial; in terms of reason and sentiment, he had to submit it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I must also let Liu Tianning, King Luohou, and a group of supporters express their attitudes; if no one waves the flag, who would dare to submit one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can perceive Ji Zixuan’s memories, and the heavenly secrets were not blocked; isn't this allowing me to see it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing immediately took out the Earth Mirror and called on friends and family to submit memorials opposing Princess Youruo’s marriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Zhao, what reason?\" Xia Jing sent a message asking. At this time, Xia Jing was already in the Third Grade realm, but not a Third Grade official.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this memorial had nothing to do with official rank; it only depended on whether you had enough weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Jing clearly had enough; his father was a Marquis, and his aunt’s husband was a royal relative. After nearly a hundred years of development, Xia Jing had begun to take over his father’s network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Yanguang Royal Court is barbaric; how are they worthy of marrying Princess Youruo? Just copy the line of the pro-war faction,\" Zhao Xing replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real reason naturally could not be told; wouldn't that be slapping the old Emperor in the face and exposing the royal family’s shortcomings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, I’ll mobilize immediately.\" Xia Jing nodded. He had often come to the Princess’s Mansion to meet Zhao Xing over the years, and their relationship had always been very close. Besides, if one really counted, he was also a relative of Princess Youruo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the call with Xia Jing, the second was Long Xiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhao Xing, something big has happened! Do you know?\" Long Xiao said anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know. What is the trend over at the Water Clan?\" Zhao Xing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are all sorts of things being said,\" Long Xiao said. \"Some say the Princess was forced, some say she was locked up. My father-in-law has already set off for Fengjing to see the Emperor, and the Tang and Ao families have also sent people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is the situation? Princess Youruo can actually be used for a marriage alliance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing said: \"The situation is just like that; don't ask about anything else. Don't you also have a scattered rank? Just copy a memorial and submit it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Soldier Realm, inside the Hundred Soldier Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing met the 'King of Billions'; the original Immortal King, Liu Yong, had already passed away. The current King of Billions was his son, Liu Chengan, the same Crown Prince whom Zhao Xing had fed spiritual essence in the Ten Suns Cave Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Commandery Prince title of King of Billions had not been downgraded because the original fief of the King of Hua was not large—only one county—and he did not study military power, specifically acting as a scapegoat, just like the King of Lingde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Liu Chengan now inherited his father’s Commandery Prince title. As for the former King of Lingde and King of Anning, they had also died of old age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Zhao.\" Liu Chengan still called him brother upon seeing Zhao Xing, even though he was a Prince and Zhao Xing was only a Marquis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Liu.\" Zhao Xing said, \"I presume you have guessed my intention?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know.\" Liu Chengan said, lifting the official document in his hand, \"I was just planning to send it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many thanks.\" Zhao Xing cupped his hands and then headed straight for the highest level of the Hundred Soldier Tower; he had to see King Luohou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the highest level of the Hundred Soldier Tower, King Luohou was standing in front of a sand table, surrounded by tall Earth Mirrors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Highness.\" Zhao Xing cupped his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Liu Tianning still hasn't come out of seclusion?\" King Luohou asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Since Liu Tianning’s true self went into seclusion, Zhao Xing was the only one who could contact him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Liu’s seclusion was different from Zhao Xing’s; his clones only handled established affairs and were not connected to the true self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the [Disconnection Method] Zhao Xing had customized for him. Every ten years or so, the true self would recycle the clones, then use the main soul of the true self to eliminate the sub-souls before releasing new clones, like metabolism, achieving the goal of re-cultivation through this method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for running around on his behalf,\" King Luohou said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Princess has taken care of me for over a hundred years, and my family has lived in the Princess’s Mansion for over a hundred years. Even without the relationship of a teacher, I would still oppose it,\" Zhao Xing stated his attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This matter is difficult to handle,\" King Luohou sighed. \"I requested to see the Emperor, but the Emperor refused to summon me. Now, the Princess’s...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...face cannot be seen either, and Liu Tianning is in seclusion. Many officials in the Six Ministries don't know what to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>King Luohou couldn't understand what Emperor Jing was thinking at all; he only felt that imperial power was unfathomable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, King Luohou said: \"I will preside over the first resolution of the Six Ministries. I will come forward to oppose it and let this matter be shelved for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the second resolution will begin in seven days, and the Acting Prime Minister 'Tong Wensheng' will certainly support it with all his might.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The third resolution will be presided over by Li Boqian, but he...
