“The Min Family has never been involved with the game for the throne. Nevertheless, the Min Family is the biggest noble family in the capital, and the children of the Min Family are easy to deal with, but what is most difficult to get is Madame Min’s help. Madame Min is not actually a real member of the family, but she belongs to the Min Family, so if we can get the Min Family to take our side, then Madame Min would automatically belong to our team,” Junyi said with excitement. It was the great Min Family he was talking about.

Zhou Huailing looked quite calm, despite Junyi’s excitement.

Of course he knew what the Min Family was like.

Because of his knowledge towards the family, he did not think that they were easy to deal with.

Junyi grew up in the capital since childhood, yet he did not start to get involved with the imperial family and noble families until he was much older. He might be intelligent and careful, but he was a little bit too simple-minded regarding this errand.

!!

The Min Family was a real noble family.

The family was deeply-rooted in the capital and did not need to get involved with the game for the throne.

Apart from the Min Family, Madame Min held the most important forces, and it was very difficult to get them to show support.

“Junyi, the Min Family never takes sides. They are different from the Chu Family, who have no forces and will only take sides for the family’s sake. The Min Family is different. They don’t need to,” Zhou Huailing said.

“Crown Prince, that is the reason why we absolutely need to have the Min Family on your side. Just think about this – if a family that never takes sides suddenly takes a side, then Crown Prince, you will be totally blessed by the Heavens!” Junyi said, “Also, the Min Family did not take sides because there had never been a Crown Prince or one of the King’s sons who has ever married the Phoenix Girl as you have done. Therefore the Min Family will not just stay out of the game. Why not just give it a try?” Junyi said, trying to convince Zhou Huailing.

After he said this... He thought for a while and continued, fearing that the Crown Prince would give up this idea because he was too negative about it.

He analyzed. “Crown Prince, we have many people taking our side, either in the court or the circle of noble families, but they are all wary. Those who take our side right now are all small, and even Prime Minister Chu has not yet taken our side.”

“...”

“Besides, General Liu has the military power, but you and his daughter do not get on well with each other, so General Liu is your enemy, for sure.”

“...”

“Apart from General Liu, you will have to consider the Jiang Family’s remnants as well as the King’s men.”

“...”

“We are in an advantageous position on the surface, yet we are actually in a dangerous position. Remember North Qi’s Prince? He is not going to give any magical monsters to us.”

“...”

“So we have to get the Min Family’s support.”

“...”

“Apart from the Min Family, we also need to obtain military power, and we also need to establish our own troops as well as the other six ministries. We are now in charge of the Ministry of Architecture and the Ministry of Rites, but we need to have the Ministry of Personnel, which is the most important and is still out of our control.”

Zhou Huailing looked serious again.

“I can deal with military power and troops, but you have to work on the Ministry of Personnel and the Min Family.”

“...”

“The banquet is around the corner, so we have to get ready.”

“...”

“Also, we have not yet caught Xie Yan. He knows too many secrets of mine, and I am worried... Junyi, what do you think we should do?”
