1320 TWO Chapter 1320-Chu Queen (1/2)

Chapter 1320 – Chu Queen

After the New Year, the Great Xia Imperial Court issued an unassuming personnel change announcement.

Imperial decree, Secret Document Pavilion assistant Ouyang Bing is promoted to advisor. She will be in charge of the coordination and contact between the Cabinet and the four courts.

Her role was very flexible.

Ouyang Shuo had given her a vast stage so that she could walk around the Cabinet and four courts. She would be able to learn and familiarize herself with their work to prepare to takeover in the future.

This entire process would last for two years.

Ouyang Shuo did not spare any effort in training and developing Bing'er, and she did not disappoint him.

This brother and sister duo had a tacit understanding and a good relationship.

...

1st month, 5th day, Imperial Capital.

Ouyang Shuo chaired the annual meeting.

In addition to the 24 officials that participated last year, there were two new people. They were newly appointed Pacific Squadron Fleet Admiral Zhou Yu and Xijiang Governor-General Feng Qiuhuang.

New Secret Document Pavilion advisor Ouyang Bing sat in the corner of the hall to record the proceedings.

Although that was the case, the 26 officials could not help but glance at the corner and look at this calm and reserved young lady. They were filled with thoughts.

The officials had some rough guesses regarding the emperor's arrangements.

Yesterday, the Imperial Court published the rank change list of the New Year. Di Chen became a 3rd class Marquis, attracting a lot of discussion. However, the true focus was on queen Ouyang Bing.

She was given the title of Chu Queen, becoming the first in Great Xia to become a hereditary king or queen.

Before this, Great Xia had six kings, Qin King Fu Su, Han King Liu Fuling, Sui King Yang Jian, Tang King Li Zhi, Song King Zhao Guangyi, and Ming King Zhu Yunwen.

Everyone knew that these six did not hold any power.

However, she was different. Being the only direct sister of his majesty, not only was she given the title of queen, but she was even given one out of the four most noble titles of Jin, Qin, Qi, and Chu. Hence, the meaning was naturally different.

A few days ago, she was promoted to advisor to take charge of the coordination and contact between the Cabinet and the four courts. In truth, this appointment surprised and confused the ministers.

After all, advisors were only primary grade 4, so how could a role like that have such responsibility? As for her identity, it did not have any weight on the Imperial Court. In fact, it even brought about a negative impact instead.

Only yesterday did the officials realize what was happening.

With her authority as the Chu Queen and the role of advisor, all problems were solved.

Some officials understood this arrangement of his majesty while others did not. For example, Jiang Shang and Zhang Liang knew that his majesty was preparing for Planet Hope.

Meanwhile, those who did not understand would not object in public.

In truth, his majesty allowing her go to Qiongzhou to learn politics was already a sign of the things to come.

After she worked in Qiongzhou for two years and the Secret Document Pavilion for a year, the officials slowly accept the fact that she was going to enter the Imperial Court. As she was going in step by step, there were naturally less people who objected to it.

Before the meeting began, the Cabinet and the Grand Council made a simple conclusion of the past year's strategy situation.

The situation in the 8th year was basically the same as Zhang Liang had predicted in the state of the union address.
