"Prime Minister?" Li Ruo smiled. "What is that?"
When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
One must know that this Prime Minister Luo was famous for his explosive temper. Normally, even the emperor would give him some face, but this woman, even her tiger-ass was plucked, it was unknown whether she was truly capable or if she was just a newborn calf that wasn't afraid of a tiger.
"How dare you!" Prime Minister Luo was obviously very angry.
"How dare you!" Li Ruo went back to the past!
"You …" The old prime minister's hands were shaking, and he didn't know what to say.
"Unconvinced?" Without giving them a chance to catch their breath, Liru continued, "Before the emperor even spoke, you interrupted him." Before the emperor even said anything, you interrupted him.
Her words were extremely arrogant, but no one refuted them. Of course, it was also because she was scared silly. For the past five thousand years, they had never seen such an arrogant girl.
The Emperor didn't get angry. He glanced at his younger brother with an unfathomable gaze, and he started to smile complacently.
"You …" The Prime Minister spoke several times, but in the end, he was unable to say anything. His old face flushed red as he pointed his trembling finger at Li Luo.
Liruo's eyes narrowed. She hated it when someone pointed at her the most. She raised her hand and slapped him. "Do all of you think the same? Do you think I should kneel down and pay my respects?"
The ministers lowered their heads in silence, their meaning clear.
Liru snorted coldly. She didn't want to be too cocky. She knew it wasn't a good thing to show off too much. But could anyone tell her that in this situation, she should continue to act like a tortoise?
She was a modern person who had received higher education and knew that kneeling to the heavens and to her parents was no different from kneeling to the emperor. Thus, she couldn't get her to kneel down in front of him.
"But, why should I kneel?" With just one sentence, he had completely infuriated everyone. Even the Emperor frowned.
Li Ruo said, "That's right, your Great General won against me leaving the country, but as everyone knows, you all did not take it back. That is to say, I am still an independent country, and I, am a princess of the country of Li, not one of your Xuanyuan's subjects, so I am your guest here. Not only are you all rude to me, you even dare to spout such arrogant words … Hah, I would like to ask Emperor Xuanyuan, who exactly is this bold person?"
She was asking about the Emperor, but she looked at the Prime Minister Luo. She didn't wait for the Emperor to open his mouth as she continued speaking.
"Putting all these aside, this princess is a princess who has left the country. The one she married is your Xuanyuan Kingdom's Great General …" "Oh, the one beside me."
Liru smiled faintly and continued, "And as far as I know, he is not just the Great General of the Kingdom, he is also the Emperor's personal King, the Peerless Emperor. The Emperor once proclaimed that the Great General could exempt the Emperor from kneeling and bowing, and that would do. Your Majesty, was this princess correct?"
The Emperor smiled with both eyes like a fox. He did not speak but only nodded slightly.
"Husband and wife were originally one. Since this princess has already married your Great General, should I enjoy the same treatment as him? He does not need to kneel, and this princess also does not need to kneel! "
After Li Ruo finished speaking, everyone became even more silent. Xuanyuan Mo cast her a few deep glances and his tiny body suddenly became dazzling in the spacious hall.
Liru sighed. Although she had a good history, that knowledge was useless in a country like this. Since the emperor had to see her, she could only think of a way to escape from this kneeling.
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Mo had a good status in this ice mountain, so why didn't she use it?
Indeed, when she left the manor, she was pestering the housekeeper with questions just to understand the situation. Otherwise, she would have thought that she was interested in this proud and arrogant General.
"The princess is right." After a long time, the Emperor laughed, "My dear Luo, you can leave now!"
Although Prime Minister Luo was unwilling, he had to admit that Li Ruo was right. He was just a bit stubborn, but that didn't mean he was stupid.
"Come, sit down!"
"Thank you!" Li Ruo smiled, she would definitely not stand if she could sit. This was her usual principle as a person. After that, the emperor just asked some superficial questions and let her out.
Xuanyuan Mo was still in the great hall discussing government affairs with the Emperor when she was granted a walk in the imperial garden.
"Princess, over here!" Not long after she came out, a young maid called out to her softly.
She took a closer look and did not recognize him.
"What's the matter?"
"Princess, the empress wishes to meet you. This way please!" The young maid was very cute, and there were two dimples in the corner of her mouth.
Li Ruo nodded. No matter why the empress wanted to see her, she knew that there was no way she could escape.
