Chapter 1470 Baby steps matter as much as complete success.
"As we all know that we have limited powers. But limited powers don't mean that we are standing in a helpless position. So, why are we making it look like we are left helpless in front of government officials who actually are the ones positioned to help us serve our public better."
Li Xue said as she picked up her pen to draw a map of how the three basic sectors of the country were connected. "Here as we can see we three together make this country. Although the powers differ between all of us, we are still the blue bloods who are born to dominate other rather than taking their domination."
She said and her words like that made people see the scenario with a different glass. Shin Tingming looked at the sketch on the paper and rubbed his chin with some thought. "Continue." He spoke.
Li Xue nodded and then continued. "Our people need help which we can't provide them directly. To solve their problems, we can't come to the front, but that doesn't mean we can help them. I have a way in which we can easily help them out and solve all their issues."
"How are we going to do that?" One of the ministers asked, clearly intrigued by the different perspective they got to hear today.
Li Xue looked at him and smiled as if she wasn't expecting that question. As if until now she had made it very much clear to make people understand what she was all talking about. "It's simple, we will officially represent them in front of the parliament. The government officials can ignore the words of the commons for once but they won't dare to ignore the words coming from the royals."
"We will meet the commons and encourage them to bring their problems to us. And once we get to hear them, we will bring the same to the parliament. This will not just solve their problems but will also add up to the goodwill of the royals." Li Xue proposed and hearing her everyone started discussing it.
Li Xue gave everyone the time to understand it. Although she was excited to know how people would take her idea, she also knew that the fruits borne by patience were always worth it.
As the murmurs filled the air, soon everything also got silent as people turned to look at Shin timing. Their eyes staring as if they had all decided and were ready to reveal it.
"Your Majesty, we think what the Crown Princess proposed actually has the worth. We can try that and see." One of the ministers said and getting serious over the talk, Shin Tingming nodded with some thought.
Then turning to look at Li Xue, he leaned forward at the table with clasped fingers and spoke, "So what are your plans to bring out this great chance to the public. Have you thought of it?" He asked and Li Xue nodded after a moment.
"I haven't before but now when His Majesty has asked me, I remembered something that could help." She said and Shin Tingming stared at her waiting to hear her further.
Taking the cue in his silence, she continued, "A few days back when I met the Public Relation team, they asked me the permission to start some activities that will engage me more with the public. So that not just the public will come to know and grow closer to me but also me getting closer to them. They wanted my popularity to grow as the Crown Princess of the country. I agreed to their plans at that time. And now that we have got this one in our hands, I feel like it will be great if we can merge the two things together. That way not just it will be engaging for the public, but i will even get the chance to serve them sooner and start my duties as the princess."
Shin Tinming paused for a moment to take a thought and right then the minister from before who has looked down at Li Xue spoke, "I don't think this will be suitable, Your Majesty. Her Highness still has no experience in this field. What if getting down amidst the public she ruins her image more? That will bring a hideous stain on the name of the royals."
Shin Tingming couldn't control throwing a glare at that moment. His eyes turned sharp as he looked at Minister Zhao. But then, knowing his position at the table, he normalized his gaze and turned back to look at Li Xue, who sat there with confidence, as if the words of the arrogant minister didn't even touch her.
Seeing her like that Shin Tingming couldn't hold back the pride he felt as her father in his heart. While his eyes shone with pride, he threw his decision without thinking twice about it, "I think what the Crown Princess suggested seems worth giving a try. She might not have the experience in the field yet, but at least she proved herself to be holding right etiquette at the table such big as this which even the ministers of age long experience failed to keep."
Shin Tingming said, giving a meaningful look to someone at the table who at once put down his head in embarrassment. Then he continued while looking at Li Xue and others, "While making the conversation with the people in common, the right etiquette, empathy and tone is what matters. And with those three, the Crown Princess is ready. She can go ahead with this plan."
He said and giving a small smile Li Xue nodded. Once that decision was declared, everyone turned slowly to congratulate Li Xue, which she accepted with open arms and kind smile that perfectly suited the princess that everyone wanted her to be.
The meeting was adjourned and with a small achievement like this, Li Xue changed several minds. Although those group still waited to see more of her, there was a small change in their perspective that was enough to bring a great change sooner or later.
"Dear, you were good today. Being your father, I am proud." Shin Tingming said as he walked out of the room with Li Xue.
Li Xue smiled, "I am just taking baby steps, I have still a lot to learn, Pa."
"Successful baby steps matter as much as complete success. You will make a great Queen in the future." He complimented and Li Xue no longer spoke more. To which he added, "Fine, we will leave the political talks here itself, now that it's over, we should get back to the palace. Your mother must be waiting."
He said and Li Xue nodded. But just when she was about to take further her steps, Su Ce's voice from behind halted her. "Dear Crown Princess, may I have a word with you?"
