Chapter 9 Three Conditions
"An Le has been favored by his father since he was a child, and has inherited the favor of Daxia. Today, I will repay it to my father."

"My daughter is willing... to go to Qingyi to achieve the good of the two countries..."

It was very difficult for Jiang Sile to say this high-sounding speech.

Although Jiang Sile's idiom was beyond the old emperor's expectations, the old emperor was relieved that An Le voluntarily went to marry him.

"It's just that, as a daughter, it's not easy for An Le to go to Qingyi outside the Great Wall. It's going to be very difficult. I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to return to my homeland and meet my father again." The young courtiers and eunuchs wet their clothes with tears.

Even Tang Yi and Pei Xing couldn't help wiping away their tears.

At this time, the emperor's expression became even more relaxed, and there were still some tears in his eyes.

"My son is loyal to the country, it is admirable..."

"It's going to be very difficult for my daughter to go, and I have three requests to my father, Huang Yuzhun"

At this time, the old emperor was no longer vigilant, and even the ministers present didn't care much.

after all……

What can a princess ask for?It's just Zhuchai's clothes.

If you want, then give it~ It's just a dowry for the princess.

"My daughter is going to a foreign country, and I am afraid that I will never see her in her homeland again. My daughter wants the sword of the late emperor that you once gave to my grandfather. The sword is made of gold and has a hostile spirit. It can also keep her safe. My daughter wants this sword to be by your side body."

"No." Before Jiang Sile finished speaking, there was a voice of opposition.

This person said convincingly, "Princess going out of the fortress is a major national event, how can you threaten her like this?"

"Could it be that you think the court hall is your daughter's boudoir?"

After all, the hall roared with laughter.

Tang Yi turned her head away and stared angrily.This time the father-in-law Pei Xing failed to stop him.

"The princess is the body of a thousand pieces of gold, and this marriage is for the good of the two countries' diplomatic relations... You...you don't want to serve the country, so why humiliate the princess like this?"

Tang Yi was dressed in light green Tsing Yi, tall and mighty, and she was glaring at this moment, just like the glaring door god.

The colleagues around were trembling like quails, for fear of being implicated, so a large circle around Tang Yi was left.

In the end, the old emperor waved his hand, but it was just a sword, and the old emperor didn't care.

If An Le likes it, just give it to her.

"The sword is sealed in the inner treasury, so it should be counted as Anle's dowry."

All the officials in the main hall bowed their heads and said yes, after all, it was just a sword, nothing more than a utensil.

They just dislike Princess Anle's disrespectful attitude towards the officials.

Before, Princess Anle insulted Wang Su, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and caused him to fall into a coma.

Many old officials secretly wanted to trip Princess Anle by touching their beards.

"Thank you Father"

Jiang Sile fell down and bowed again, his eyes were full of admiration.

"My son grew up by my father's side since I was a child, and I have never seen the vast territory of my great summer. My daughter's second wish is to make the road to marriage longer... My daughter wants to finally see the scenery of my homeland."

The old emperor on the dragon chair frowned slightly. This matter is both troublesome and simple.

It was mainly because of the views of the Qingyi people. If they insisted on getting married as soon as possible, even the old emperor would have nothing to say.

Thinking about it, the old emperor turned his attention to His Royal Highness's envoy from Qingyi.

"An Le has been with the widow since childhood, alas... the widow is reluctant to part with it.

The path of marriage... What do the envoys of Qingyi think? "

Qingyi prince Wu Mu and Zuoxian king Wu Quji looked at each other, met their eyes, and finally Wu Quji took a step forward and said:
"The princess is full of patriotism, and I can't bear to let her down.

This route... I will report to Shan Yu later and make plans later.

But don't worry, the princess, Shan Yu has a heart of sincerity towards the princess, and he will never refuse. "

The old emperor also nodded slightly.

Then everyone looked at Jiang Sile, wanting to hear her last condition.

"The two countries are at war, and the people are dying. Anle's last request is to reduce the domestic food price to one stone and two taels. It is also for the people..."

Jiang Sile hadn't finished speaking, it was like a drop of water poured into a frying pan, and the ministers all started arguing.

"No... Princess An Le's move to interfere with the court, what is her intention?" This is an old minister of the Ministry of War. If he hadn't been allowed to bring weapons into the palace, this lord might even want to commit a crime and cut Jiang Sile off.

"Your Majesty, the minister, Princess Anle, has evil intentions. These matters are related to the voice of the people... Be careful, Your Majesty~"

Even Taifu Ji said: "Money and food are related to the people's livelihood... You must not listen to the words of Princess Anle's wife on this matter."

Elder Wang Ge, who had been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, also showed displeasure, and said: "Your Majesty Wan Wang should be cautious about what you say about the cholera court."

There was a sneer on Jiang Sile's face, hehe, this is like a royal court in a feudal dynasty~
If this third condition is really agreed to, Jiang Sile will be extremely puzzled.It is common sense not to agree, or even bite her back.

Although Jiang Sile's request is to reduce the price of food from the three taels and twenty cents in Luzhikou to two taels and one stone, no matter what, it sounds like a good thing that the price of food has dropped and the people can afford more food. .

But looking at the officials in the court, none of them agreed, and everyone looked at Jiang Sile with vicious eyes.

Jiang Sile felt that even the old emperor's gaze began to turn unfriendly.

Only the Qingyi envoy beside him still had the same curiosity in his eyes as before.Maybe they didn't understand what she was saying?
Jiang Sile thought to himself mockingly under the gaze of Public Enemy.

But she was right, the Qingyi envoy and his party really couldn't understand the reaction of the ministers, most of the people in Qingyi were nomads.Among the group of people, only the elder Wu Quji felt uneasy in his heart.

It is indeed a good thing to lower food prices, but the premise is who will lower it?Why drop?Why drop?

The price of grain is in the hands of grain merchants, so how do grain merchants get their prices?

In Daxia, the top of the grain merchants is the imperial merchant, and the price set by the imperial merchant is the standard price.Local grain merchants fluctuate up and down according to the standard price. Except for remote areas where grain prices fluctuate more, other areas are basically the same.

Who sets the price of food for the imperial merchants?

Behind the imperial merchants are relatives, the royal family.

Everyone thinks that the price is set by the emperor. If the price of grain falls, it will be the grace of the emperor;

But in fact, it is not the case, most of them are the head of the household department.

Especially during the reign of Emperor Xian, there was a big disturbance because of his relatives who were in charge of the imperial merchants, which almost caused the loss of life.Since the first emperor, the imperial business is no longer in the hands of relatives, and most of them are managed by the household department.
