Han Yunzhi had never been as disappointed as he was today. He had known that the emperor had no longer trusted him. Since he persuaded the emperor to kill Xiao Zhao, the king of Xuanwu, who was seeking power, the emperor has been dissatisfied with him!
After Wei Zijin married the King of Luoyang, the emperor even suspected that he and the King of Luoyang had formed a clique for personal gain and tried many tests against him...
Later, he and the ministers such as Guanglu Dafu advised the emperor to be Duke Chen. Although the emperor did not angrily denounce him, he understood that the emperor's attitude towards him was very different from before!
Now the emperor listened to the proposal of the minister Deng Xian and the chief censor Fang Shixian, and made up his mind to reduce the vassal states, but he could not listen to any advice from him!
It would be fine if this happens. Not only did the emperor not listen to the advice, he suspected that he was worried about the weakening of the power of the Luoyang King. He thought that he was sincere but wanted to be so suspicious of the emperor. How ironic!
"If the emperor doubts the empress, why not remove the position of prime minister as the empress... My Dayin is full of talents, and the emperor can choose others to take on this important task instead of the empress!" Han Yunzhi suppressed the grief and anger in his heart and bowed his hands and said loudly.
Xiao Heng looked at him deeply, trying to see some clues from his expression, but his eyes were calm, as if he had always had a clear conscience!
However, Han Yunzhi's determination to be stalemate with him this time made him even more dissatisfied with Han Yunzhi!
"Han Aiqing, are you threatening me when you say that?" Xiao Heng's cold eyes fell on Han Yunzhi, and his tone was extremely stern.
Han Yunzhi shook his head and replied respectfully: "I dare not...but I have felt a little overwhelmed recently. I am afraid that I am not competent for the position of the prime minister, so I want to resign from the emperor, but I hope the emperor agrees.
!”
Xiao Heng's face was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and he refused to believe that Han Yunzhi had resigned to him at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Han Yunzhi, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Return to the emperor, I know very well..." Han Yunzhi nodded and replied slowly: "I know I am unable to take on the important task of the prime minister, so I resigned from the emperor. The emperor should choose another person to replace the queen.
!”
"Han Yunzhi, you resigned to me for the sake of my vassalization!" Xiao Heng could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and asked sternly: "Are you forcing me?!"
"I don't dare!"
Xiao Heng was so angry that his body was trembling. He glared at Han Yunzhi who was lowering his eyes and said with a sneer: "I don't dare? I think you have this courage!"
Without waiting for Han Yunzhi's answer, Xiao Heng waved his hand and said word by word: "Since you no longer want to give me advice, I will allow you... I hope Han Aiqing will do his best to do it after he resigns from office!"
Han Yunzhi covered the bitter smile that flashed across his lips, bowed deeply to Xiao Heng, and said aloud: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing that Han Yunzhi was still calm after he allowed him to resign, Xiao Heng's temples thundered, and he didn't want to say more, and said with a slight smile: "Forget it, you go back!"
"I'm asking for my leave!" Han Yunzhi turned around and left the Political Affairs Hall without hesitation for a moment.
Chen Rong, the eunuch who had been guarding outside the Political Affairs Hall, hurried into the hall after seeing Han Yunzhi leave. Sure enough, he saw the emperor's face turned pale.
"Emperor, Prime Minister..." Chen Rong said cautiously, and before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Heng's wave.
"I have already allowed him to resign. You don't have to mention him in front of me anymore!"
