Originally, the imperial edict was sent out the next day, but maybe the emperor was too angry. The imperial edict was sent out at noon that day, and it was made known to the world. People all over the world immediately felt a little nervous.
Can you tell me that Prince Pingnan is easy to mess with?
Just when they were panicking, something happened that made them even more panicked. Prince Ding was actually dismissed as Minister of Military and Aircraft. According to some rumors, Prince Ding was planning to resign from all his positions and live well at home from now on.
He is retired. It is said that the news came from the palace.
Suddenly, there was a huge change in the government and the public. Many ministers went to the palace one after another. They could let Gao Shaoyi's matter go for a while. After all, it was just a matter of words, and it might not cause much trouble. But if the court does not have a prince, then this
Can the court still hold on despite the storm? Prince Ding is like a helmsman, even more important than the emperor in some aspects.
Regardless of whether they were loyal or treacherous ministers of the imperial court, even some of Prince Ding's political opponents were all upset after hearing the news. Governors and governors all over the world also thought so. Although they had become estranged from the imperial court, everyone still
It is under the umbrella of the empire. If Prince Ding disappears, will this umbrella still be available in the future?
The emperor himself was in a state of anger. When he saw the memorials from the civil and military ministers, he was so angry that he asked people to burn all the memorials. When they were fighting for the throne, many people were unconvinced and felt that the throne should be handed over.
Many people even said that if Prince Ding had been the emperor, the Daqian Empire would never have declined to this point.
Although these people were killed by the emperor, their words were still circulated among the people. In fact, the emperor regretted killing these people. It was impossible to silence the people of the world with a knife. On the contrary, it would make him appear cowardly, but what he had already done
Things can't come back.
Now that you have been the emperor for so many years, people in the world still think that the appointment of a prince is so important. How can the emperor not be angry? After the incident of burning the memorial came out, although the ministers did not dare to continue to present the memorial, but it was just like back then.
The incident is the same, can you silence their mouths?
The emperor's reputation is getting worse and worse, including some royalists. They also feel that the emperor is too irrational. It is no longer a good thing to offend Gao Shaoyi. Now even his right-hand man has driven home. How can this be done?
Okay? If we continue to mess around like this, and we don’t wait for people to come in from the outside, we will be in chaos internally first.
What surprised them was yet to come. On the third day, Prince Ding gave a notice saying that he was not feeling well and resigned from all his posts.
Everyone wanted to relax at this time, so the ministers stood up to persuade and listed the importance of Prince Ding. However, this just stung the emperor's pain point, so the emperor did not discuss it with anyone.
He immediately approved the memorial and gave Prince Ding five thousand silver coins as his future pension.
When this was announced, everyone was dumbfounded. Some people thought it was not true. If the emperor could have spared a few words, this might not be the result. But looking at the emperor's stubborn look, it might not be possible.
Will keep it.
Prince Ding thanked the Lord for his kindness very calmly, and then walked out of the hall with determination, without any reluctance.
At this moment, Gao Shaoyi also admired his uncle very much. He had been in power for nearly half his life, and he quit so cleanly. Even if he was in this position, he probably wouldn't quit so cleanly.
"Farewell, Your Majesty."
At this time, Gao Shaoyi did something that surprised everyone. When Prince Ding passed in front of him, Gao Shaoyi immediately knelt down on one knee.
In fact, among the court ministers, many people were reluctant to leave Prince Ding. They believed that this building was about to collapse. If Prince Ding was here, it might be able to persist a little longer. If there was no Prince Ding, what would happen next?
They really don’t know how to live their days, so they are very sad in their hearts.
"Farewell, Your Majesty."
Ministers knelt down one after another. They were also a kind of affirmation of Prince Ding. In any case, Prince Ding had entered the royal cabinet since he came of age, and then entered the Military Aircraft Department and the Prime Minister's Affairs Office. No matter which yamen he was in,
Prince Ding has made indelible contributions. The Daqian Empire has declined drastically in recent years, but this is not Prince Ding's own responsibility. The holes have been left long ago, and it is unrealistic to expect others to fill them all.
But everyone admits that the days when Prince Ding was in power did bring a lot of benefits to the Daqian Empire. Although the land was still ceded and compensation was paid, due to the efforts of Prince Ding and Li Hongtang, the amount of compensation paid by various places also increased.
Slowly decreasing, and finding a basis for survival in the cracks of the major powers, this is indeed an old man's contribution to the empire, and he deserves everyone's kneeling at this moment.
The emperor felt that someone was cutting his heart with a knife. The man with the knife was Gao Shaoyi. If Prince Ding walked out like this, it would not have been that big of a feeling for the emperor, but Gao Shaoyi actually knelt down in the main hall.
, this is a bit too much. Where do you put the emperor?
Gao Shaoyi himself had won over many people in the court, and this group of people accounted for about 15%, so when they saw Gao Shaoyi kneeling, they all came out honestly. Since they had already
We have paid homage to Gao Shaoyi at the dock, so whatever the master does, we, the rest of us, have to do the same. Otherwise, can they treat you as one of their own?
There are also some people who sincerely admire Prince Ding as a person. This part accounts for about 20%, which adds up to 35%. There are still 15% of people who admire Prince Ding.
People, so half of the people in the entire court knelt down at once. When an old prince retired, it was already quite remarkable that so many people knelt down to see him off. Prince Ding also set a precedent.
When Prince Ding walked to the door of the hall, he looked back and saw so many former colleagues and juniors seeing him off. Prince Ding nodded with satisfaction. No matter how many merits and demerits he had, seeing this scene in front of him, Prince Ding
