"How can a princess of noble identity be so casually mistaken?"
Su Guozhang deliberately elevated Ruo Xuan to the status of princess, essentially setting her and the Ruo Family atop a fiery grill.
Firstly, it caused the consorts in the palace who have the title of princess to see her as a thorn in their side.
Secondly, it made the court officials witness how much trust and importance the Emperor placed in the Ruo Family; the Emperor, in order to give face to the Ruo Family, even carried Princess Wuyou into the great hall to receive the grand salutations of the courtiers.
He wanted to set the Ruo Family against the court officials.
If one person opposed the Ruo Family, they could fight back, but what about the pressure from a whole group?
That would be indefensible!
Ruo Hai gave Su Guozhang a cold glance and said nothing; their Ruo Family did not yet have the standing to speak here.
