Chapter 1066 The Queen Mother's True Intentions
"Mother, Taizuo does not seek power, nor does he covet fame and fortune. He has already been given a title that cannot be further honored. He cannot really be made a king, right?" Xun Liuchen was still a little embarrassed.
It's not that Chen Zhimo cannot be crowned king, but there is little significance in this title. Chen Zhimo does not care about the title of king. Chen Zhimo can even hand over his military power, let alone the so-called power, let alone wealth and glory. Hengkong Group is the richest merchant family in Shucang Country. Xun Liuchen really doesn't know what can impress Chen Zhimo.
The Queen Mother took another sip of tea and said, "Your Majesty, Tai Zuo is indeed a rare talent. He poses a huge threat, but he also has the potential to be used by me. If this double-edged sword is used well, our Shucang country will move towards a more glorious path. So it's best for us to become a family with this kind of person."
As she spoke, the Queen Mother glanced at Xun Liuyan meaningfully.
Xun Liuchen and Xun Liuyan immediately understood what was going on. After talking for a long time, the topic came back to the point that the Queen Mother's meaning was very clear, which was to form a marriage alliance with Chen Zhimo.
Since we can't win and there's no way to fight, we might as well just become a family. Then Chen Zhimo will definitely do his best to help the royal family.
The Queen Mother took Xun Liuyan's hand and said to them, "We in the royal family cannot decide our own marriages. We don't care whether the person you marry is the one you like. Everything is for political needs. But Yan'er is in love with Tai Zuo. If we can make it happen, it won't be a disgrace to Yan'er. It might even be a good thing."
Xun Liuyan blushed shyly again, but she quickly made up her mind to fight for her own happiness, so she said, "Thank you, mother, for your help. I am willing to marry you."
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, and then said with some reluctance: "If this goes through, you will have to leave this family."
Xun Liuyan also understood what the Queen Mother meant. Chen Zhimo was an immortal cultivator and would definitely return to the immortal gate. He would not stay in the secular world for a long time. If she married Chen Zhimo, she would have to follow Chen Zhimo and leave his hometown.
“No matter where I am, my heart is always with my country.”
Xun Liuyan was making a statement that her marriage would bring benefits to the royal family and the country.
"Okay, okay." The Queen Mother smiled comfortingly.
"The imperial sister is already married even before her fate is decided. It seems that girls really cannot be kept when they grow up!" Xun Liuchen on the side teased.
"Your Majesty, you...", Xun Liuyan muttered shyly.
Xun Liuchen also knew that his sister liked Chen Zhimo, but he had mentioned it to Chen Zhimo. However, Chen Zhimo was not interested in this aspect and seemed unwilling to talk about personal affairs.
Xun Liuchen: "It is great that my sister can marry the one she likes. I will be happy for her. But Master Taizuo has lofty ambitions and does not seem to be in a hurry for love."
The Queen Mother said solemnly: "He is not anxious, but our Yan'er is anxious."
Xun Liuyan blushed. Why did her mother make her sound like she was in a hurry to get married? She hurriedly explained, "Mother, I am not in a hurry."
"You're not anxious? You must be anxious! He's an immortal cultivator. He will become an immortal in the future and live as long as the heaven and earth. Can you afford to wait? By the time he wants to find a Taoist partner, you will be in your seventies or eighties. You have to hurry up and marry Tai Zuo as soon as possible. Maybe you can get some immortal fate and live a long life. Then the Xun family royal family will have something to rely on."
The Queen Mother's words did make sense, and Xun Liuyan had to consider it.
Xun Liuchen sighed, "What the Queen Mother said makes sense, but we can't force Taizuo to do this."
The Queen Mother pondered and said, "Your Majesty is also a clever person, why is he so rigid? Can't he use some tricks? Such a beautiful woman came to his door, and she is a princess of the royal family. There is nothing that she is not worthy of him. If the ancestor of the Xun family was still alive, we, the royal family of the Xun family, might not look down on him."
"Yes, yes, mother is right. Let me think about it carefully. I can always come up with a good solution."
"The worst that can happen is that the matter has been settled. Tang Tang is a cultivator, so how can he go back on his word? It won't be too much of a stretch for him to let him get married." The Queen Mother said unhappily. She couldn't understand why Chen Zhimo, a grown man, was not interested in women. He was already an adult, so it was time for him to get married.
Seeing that Xun Liuchen didn't respond, the Queen Mother said, "If it's inconvenient for you to do it, then let me do it."
Xun Liuchen hurriedly said, "How dare I trouble you, mother? I can handle it."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes slightly, indicating that she was tired.
Xun Liuchen immediately understood and prepared to leave, but still asked carefully: "My mother has not set foot in the Hall of Supreme Harmony for many years. Is the reason you are here to discuss matters concerning the marriage between the Grand Commandant and the Imperial Sister?"
The Queen Mother opened her eyes and said solemnly, "This matter concerns the continuation of the royal family. It is absolutely a major matter. I think it is very important."
After saying this, the Queen Mother leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
Xun Liuchen and Xun Liuyan hurriedly retreated, "Your sons, take your leave!"
After the two of them left, Xun Liuchen said, "My sister's marriage is such an important matter that my mother takes it so seriously. It seems that my mother is very concerned about the bloodline of the royal family."
"You mean, mother, your purpose is not just to stabilize the court and to marry someone powerful?" Xun Liuyan asked doubtfully. She thought the queen mother wanted to facilitate this marriage just to stabilize the powerful Chen family and marry Chen Zhimo, a cultivator with a promising future.
Xun Liuchen nodded and said, "I don't know how many years it has been. The fact that Xun's family cannot practice cultivation has always bothered the descendants of Xun's family, but they have never been able to find a way. Maybe the Queen Mother saw some hope in Taizuo."
"Tai Zuo can enter the immortal sect to practice with a body that is unable to practice cultivation. He must have extraordinary qualities. My mother is indeed more far-sighted than the rest of us." Xun Liuyan agreed.
Xun Liuchen smiled and said jokingly: "Perhaps if the emperor sister and Taizuo give birth to a fairy, it will be able to break the predicament that the Xun family has been in for many years."
"You... want to be beaten!", Xun Liuyan said as she raised her hand to hit me.
"Imperial sister, you can't do this. I am the emperor now." Xun Liuchen warned while dodging.
"Hmph, you are the emperor, but you are also this princess's younger brother." Although she said so, Xun Liuyan did not really hit him. The image of the royal family still had to be taken into consideration, and the status of the two could not be messed up in front of outsiders.
Xun Liuchen stopped joking and said seriously, "Royal sister, the matter that the Queen Mother asked is really difficult to handle. Why don't you do it yourself? With your natural beauty, I don't believe that you can still not be tempted by the Grand Marshal."
"This..." Xun Liuyan was a little embarrassed. Although she was in love with Chen Zhimo, she really couldn't please a man or even use seductive means.
She never thought that there would be a day when she, a prime minister of a country, would have to worry about her children's feelings.
