Chen Qingzhi felt very uneasy. He had guessed the meaning of His Majesty's words anyway, so he quickly knelt down, not bowing, but kneeling down, showing great respect.

"Your Majesty, Qing Zhi must not dare! Qing Zhi's achievements today are all due to His Majesty's cultivation. As for his personal prestige, it is completely insignificant compared to His Majesty's divine power!"

Logically speaking, Zhao Changqing must have felt very happy after hearing Chen Qingzhi's words, but in fact it was quite the opposite. He felt a little angry.

Listen, what is this word?

Everything depends on me to cultivate it?

Do you have a relationship with me?

It’s not the system’s fault!

I'm very tired, okay?

Zhao Changqing's eyes were focused on Chen Qingzhi at this moment, staring at the latter so that the latter did not dare to raise his head and stared at him, and his heart was tingling. He felt that the look His Majesty looked at him was really full of majesty, which made people feel heart-stopping.

"The achievements you have today are all your fault. What does it have to do with me? Don't worry, I don't even bother to do anything to covet your contribution to the country's expansion of territory. Tomorrow, I will order the historian to write about you Chen Qingzhi.

Become our national hero in the Wei Dynasty."

Zhao Changqing said.

After everyone heard this, they felt that it was sarcasm, but it was extremely unfriendly anyway.

Not to mention how excited Chen Qingzhi's heart must be at this moment.

Gradually, he began to sweat, and beads of sweat became dripping on his forehead, like tears, flowing down his face.

After a while, the entire hall was very quiet. Chen Qingzhi knew that His Majesty the Emperor had been looking at him. After taking a deep breath, he kowtowed to Zhao Changqing and knelt down, saying:

"Your Majesty! Qingzhi is a minister, and he should open up territories for Your Majesty. Why do you covet the merits of a minor minister? As for the so-called hero title, Qingzhi does not dare to deserve it!

The only person in the world who can be called a hero is Your Majesty! Everything I do is for my great Wei, I can swear a poisonous oath and swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death!"

After saying this, Chen Qingzhi felt so relieved.

All the ministers agreed and said in unison: "I swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death!"

However, Chen Qingzhi never expected that these words deeply hurt Zhao Changqing.

Listen to what he means, no matter what, this achievement of opening up the territory must be attributed to me?

And what do they say about their allegiance?!

Do you understand me?

It’s really…

Niang Xipi!

Zhao Changqing suddenly became furious and stood up suddenly.

At the same time, all the ministers saw this and knelt down in unison.

Zhao Changqing pointed at the ministers and said angrily: "You keep saying that you are loyal to me for the sake of Wei, but in my eyes, all the interests of Wei are the top priority in your eyes, right?

In this case, do you understand me when it comes to being loyal to me? You don’t understand at all! You only have the country of Wei in your eyes, not me as the emperor!"

Zhao Changqing was so angry that he remembered all the old and new accounts. It was because of Chen Qingzhi and others in front of him that he failed to earn mediocre points many times.

It's really, really annoying.

The ministers are almost scared to death by Zhao Changqing at this moment, okay?

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely no intention of doing this, Your Majesty!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Our loyalty to Your Majesty can be seen from the sun and the moon!"

"..."

Anyway, they were all frightened, and everyone, including Zhuge Liang, began to explain.

Zhao Changqing can feel their sincerity, but from the perspective of his own interests, the more loyal they are, the more uncomfortable Zhao Changqing will be.

This wine…

Even if you don’t drink it!

"Okay, everyone, get up! You can continue drinking. I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first." Zhao Changqing flicked his sleeves and prepared to leave.

All the ministers said in unison: "I will send you off to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Changqing did not respond. When he was about to step out of the Tai Chi Palace, he looked back and found that they had been kneeling towards him and did not dare to raise their heads or stand up. Seeing this, he couldn't help but frown and said:

"I know you are loyal, but you really don't understand me!"

He left only these words and walked away.

After he left, the officials stood up.

They looked at each other, then bowed their heads dejectedly and left.

Who dares to stay here and drink?

The feudal officials came together and stayed in the royal inn.

Late at night, they gathered together and discussed today's Tai Chi Palace dinner.

"Have you guessed what our new emperor said?"

"I do have some insights, because we did not send troops to assist the Ling Emperor and did not obey the emperor's call at that time, and today the emperor no longer trusts us."

"That's right. Colleagues, what His Majesty said today has made it very clear. If we continue to be in this position, His Majesty, who holds the military power, will definitely try every means to bring us down, and even

If I'm not careful, it's enough to make me doomed!"

"Well, we can't be completely blamed for the reinforcements at the beginning! Troops from all over the country had already been mobilized to Chang'an beforehand. When the Ling Emperor's crisis came, we, Lingnan Dao, would not be able to spare any troops at all!"

"Hmph, if your Lingnan Road had not transferred tens of thousands of people to the King of Qin in advance, how could you, Lingnan, be without troops?"

"..."

The governor of Longyou Road could not stand listening anymore and said: "Okay, you two, please stop arguing for now. In fact, there is another reason why His Majesty is worried about us, that is, when the three rebel princes attacked the capital, many of you

I secretly helped. Unfortunately, I made the wrong bet.

Combined with what the Huainan Dao Jiedu Envoy just said, how can your Majesty trust us? Right now, there is only one way to save ourselves."

"What method?"

"Yes, what method?"

"Resign."

"Resign?"

"Impossible! I will never resign in this life!"

"..."

After hearing their remarks, the governor of Longyou Road sneered a few times in his heart. He only said one sentence and left his colleagues speechless.

"Don't forget, everyone, the ending of Jiang Wei, the Minister of Civil Affairs!"

…

The next day.

Zhao Changqing did not attend the morning court as usual.

He had only glanced at the memorial a few times, but now he didn't even look at it, and just let Zhao Gao read it.

Zhuge Liang stood aside, absent-minded.

There are two reasons.

First, His Majesty the Emperor was furious at last night's dinner.

Second, Your Majesty actually asked Zhao Gao to read the memorial. What did you want to express? In the near future, will Zhao Gao, the eunuch, be able to openly and blatantly involve himself in government affairs?

If eunuchs get involved in politics, the country will be in chaos!

However, after Zhao Changqing noticed Zhuge Liang's absent-minded mood, he did not ask him what was wrong.

But I thought in my heart, would the majestic Zhuge Wuhou also be tired of government affairs?

In fact, Zhao Gao felt a lot of pressure when he read these memorials.

As they read, Zhao Changqing and Zhuge Liang were suddenly shocked.

Because Zhao Gao read the memorial of Chief Manager Youyun's resignation.

Immediately afterwards, the next dozen memorials were all resignations of the officials from various states.

Zhao Changqing was stunned.

Why should these people resign?

He looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "What's going on? Did they agree to resign together?"

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe."
