Long Lin stared blankly at what was happening in front of him, completely dumbfounded.
The people who gathered around were obviously looking at Long Qi, and they had nothing to do with him.
At this time, he could only be more sensible and move away to one side.
Those people immediately stepped forward and completely surrounded Long Qi.
"Congratulations to His Highness Long Qi for being awarded the title of General. Congratulations."
...
The sounds of congratulations were so messy that Long Qi was drowned in them.
Long Lin stood aside and stared at all this with his mouth open. He never thought that he was just conferring a title on a general. Is this all?
Is it possible? By making a general a general, it is certain that Long Qi will become the emperor? Isn’t it weird that these people are so enthusiastic?
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have been a bit unbelievable that his first day as an official would trigger such a violent reaction.
No wonder, everyone says that studying is very, very important, and it will directly affect your career as an official.
It seems that the difference between becoming an official and becoming an official has indeed completely different impacts.
Fortunately, he is not too bad at all. At least he is in charge of a department of etiquette, and he is not so embarrassed that he cannot be seen in public.
Long Qi was surrounded by everyone, with a calm expression and a smile on his face. He put his hands around and said some words of thanks.
In such a large group of people, Long Qi actually didn't know a few of them.
But he knew very well that these people were more or less related to the Lei family. There were actually people in each of the six films.
Not only that, even the eyes of several important cabinet ministers became very respectful when they looked at him, but they did not crowd around him like the others.
This is due to Long Qi's decades of performance and Lei Mansion's huge influence, which led to the current scene.
Long Lin saw this and couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart.
Everyone is also a prince, so why are they all crowding around you? Is it possible that you are still a flower? Are you attracting bees and butterflies like this?
Long Lin did not leave, but stood in the distance, just watching quietly. He didn't even notice that there was a person standing behind him.
Long Lin felt that something like this was a little abnormal. These people felt that their enthusiasm was excessive.
It was really like seeing Long Qi as the future emperor.
Although he had no intention of competing for the throne in his heart, he felt a little uncomfortable in the face of this contrast.
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, congratulations on becoming an official and taking charge of the Ministry of Rites. I would like to congratulate you."
A sudden sound startled Long Lin. Hearing these words, Long Lin immediately felt happy. Has someone finally congratulated him?
Looking back, Long Lin immediately curled his lips and saw that it was Situ Heng.
He thought that an official from the court would congratulate him, but he didn't expect that it was his wet nurse's father.
"Master Situ, it's you. Thank you. Why don't you go and congratulate General Long Qi like them?"
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, Situ Heng will always stand behind His Highness. The two departments of work and ceremony are adjacent to each other. Your Highness can come to me at any time if necessary in the future."
"So that's it. Then thank you in advance, Mr. Situ. If you encounter difficulties in the future, I will definitely go."
"Your Highness is welcome at any time. Let's go. It's already time to go to court and it's time for us to leave here. It's normal for something like this to happen. Your Highness, don't take it to heart."
Long Lin didn't look good, and Situ Heng could naturally tell it.
Ever since he got the news, he had already expected a scene like today. The influence of the Lei family was enough to influence half of the imperial court. This was normal.
After hearing this, Long Lin raised his eyebrows.
What do you mean? Is this normal? There are so many people surrounding Long Qi, is this normal?
No, there is something in Situ Heng's words. It seems that there is something he doesn't know about. You can ask him what is going on.
Just as he was about to leave, a little old man ran towards Long Lin.
Subconsciously, Long Lin stopped. He didn't know what the person who ran to congratulate Long Qi was doing running towards him.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I am here to congratulate Your Highness. Congratulations."
"Hey, Master Situ is here too."
Long Lin was confused and didn't know who this old man was.
Not only did he congratulate his brother, but he also came to congratulate him? A duplicitous person?
No, this mother-in-law obviously looks down on people. She wants to congratulate her brother first, and then come and congratulate him? It’s better not to come.
Situ Heng suddenly smiled and started introducing in Long Lin's ear.
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, this is Mr. Fang, the Minister of Rites. In the past, the entire Ministry of Rites was in the hands of Mr. Fang."
When Long Lin heard this, he also laughed, hehe...hehe...
This half-hearted laughter made Mr. Fang sweat break out on his head.
After Long Lin smiled, he spoke.
"Master Fang, we are all happy together. Master Fang is very good at being a good person. In the future, His Highness will lead the Ministry of Rites. I hope that Master Fang will give you your strong support."
A trace of cold sweat broke out on Mr. Fang's forehead, and he braced himself with a smile.
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, has made a serious statement. From now on, the Ministry of Rites will be under the control of His Highness, and all subordinates should fully cooperate with His Highness in all affairs."
"Well, that's best. Okay, Mr. Fang, leave me alone and go to my brother, General Long Qi, to continue congratulating you. Mr. Situ, let's go."
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Fang's face turned pale on the spot. There were His Highnesses on both sides, and he couldn't afford to offend anyone.
It is true that His Highness Long Lin is his immediate boss, but His Highness Long Qi will definitely become the emperor of the Dragon Dynasty in the future.
If the Lei family didn't take a stand, he could still keep himself from revealing himself, but even the Lei family made such a move, how dare he not take a stand.
One is his immediate boss, and the other is the future emperor. He can still tell which is more important.
After angering his immediate boss, his little life will definitely not be much better. Fortunately, he has always been the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
His Highness Long Lin has just taken office, and there will definitely be many things that require him. The relationship with His Highness Long Lin can only be improved slowly.
He had heard about His Highness Long Lin's past performance, and he didn't actually have too much worry in his heart.
After Long Lin finished speaking, he walked directly outside, feeling sullen in his heart.
It's really annoying for something like this to happen.
He is in charge of the Ministry of Etiquette, and instead of complimenting him first, his younger brother runs off to congratulate his elder brother?
Long Qi was just a general who was in charge of the Long Dynasty's army, and he couldn't even get along with the Ministry of Rites.
As for the other officials, Long Lin must be very grateful. After all, they came specifically to express their happiness.
Long Qi's performance was better than his, and he recognized the matter in his heart and did not refute it.
What's more, his brother's official position is still a general, and his official position is indeed higher than his. He is still his elder brother, and there is nothing wrong with that.
But his little brother actually acted like this. This feeling was like a slap in his face.
If you dare to hit him in the face, can he make this old boy feel comfortable in the future?
