After Mr. Xu spoke, Emperor Jing nodded and looked to the other side: "Wei Qing?"
A middle-aged man came out, bowed and said, "I congratulate Your Majesty!"
This is a member of the Menxia Province. The Menxia Province is responsible for reviewing and refuting the emperor's edicts. He has the power to return the emperor's edicts and reject the ministers' memorials. Among the four ministers of the Menxia Province, this Master Wei is What is most important to His Majesty at the moment.
Emperor Jing turned his eyes again: "Yang Qing?"
A person from Zhongshushe who has been highly regarded recently stood up and said loudly: "I would like to congratulate Your Majesty!"
Emperor Jing looked forward.
Prime Minister Shen raised his head with a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
The originally noisy court gradually became quiet as several high-ranking officials spoke one after another.
Something is wrong, something is so wrong!
The few people Your Majesty just named are all important ministers who have great say in the court. They have no personal relationship with the Marquis of Li County. Yesterday, no one in the court agreed with His Majesty’s reward for the Marquis of Li County. However, Today - what happened to them?
The courtiers who were originally opposed to this matter and planned to wait and see immediately put an end to a certain idea.
If you can make these high-ranking officials in the DPRK change their minds, there must be something behind this!
But the dozen or so people who had spoken sharply just now and strongly opposed this matter stood there in a daze. At this moment, they finally experienced a certain emotion called loneliness and loneliness.
At this moment, Emperor Jing looked down and spoke again: "Where is Qin Qing?"
When the dozen or so people heard this, their bodies were all shaken, and their eyes looked in a certain direction at the same time.
Yes, Prime Minister Qin, they still have Prime Minister Qin, no matter what, Prime Minister Qin is on their side!
At this moment, they no longer ask His Majesty to change his decision, they only ask for a leader to serve as their backer and help them withstand the pressure from other ministers...
The expression on Xiang Qin's face was a little dazed. After leaving the palace yesterday, he went directly back to the house. He thought about what Li Yi said over and over in his mind. He didn't see any guests and didn't sleep all night...
Until early this morning, some thoughts about state affairs that had been very vague in his mind before were clear enough to appear on paper.
He raised his head, his voice slightly hoarse.
"Your Majesty - wise!"
More than ten people behind him stared at him blankly, as if thunder was dancing in their minds.
Prime Minister Qin, Prime Minister Qin..., what are you talking about?
Li Yi, the Marquis of Chang'an County, is on the same page as His Highness the King of Shu. They will definitely stop anything that benefits him in the court. By saying this, doesn't the Prime Minister of Qin become a traitor?
They began to see a little unclearly.
…
The unanimous speeches of the two prime ministers, including several ministers carrying the throne, finally set the tone of the matter, and there was no voice of opposition in the whole court.
The attitude of these ministers, including Prime Minister Qin, naturally made everyone suspicious, but at this moment, it was difficult to ask questions.
As for others, there is more than just suspicion in their hearts.
The changes in the attitudes of several ministers and the stance of Prime Minister Qin made them become clowns in the court today. While their outlook on life and world view collapsed, they also began to gradually reflect on the position they stood on...
The youngest Dr. Jin Ziguanglu since the founding of the country, and His Majesty's most trusted minister, at least, when this country was still in charge of His Majesty, to be an enemy of him would be tantamount to self-humiliation.
When that time comes, he will not end well having made enemies almost everywhere in the court.
The courtiers who are favored by the emperor never end well.
However, they soon discovered that it didn't take years, months, days, or even hours for them to wait for this day.
After conferring Li Yi the title of Doctor Jin Ziguanglu, His Majesty announced something.
Because His Majesty is ill and needs to rest, he will suspend his morning court indefinitely and move to the palace in Furong Garden. The affairs of the court will still be led by the two prime ministers. At this time, Your Majesty did not recall the King of Shu to Kyoto.
Above the prime minister, it is not the prince but the eldest princess who decides on major political issues.
This is really unreasonable.
The eldest princess often participates in government affairs on weekdays, such as promoting new marriage laws, establishing a women's academy, and the academy matters a few days ago. In fact, these things were still unimaginable to them a year ago.
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, not even the eldest princess. This is an ancestral system.
However, during this year, too many things happened in Kyoto, and their thoughts and concepts also changed accordingly. Looking back now, I still don't quite understand how the eldest princess got to where she is today step by step.
This may seem impossible, but it is already a fact.
And now, she has taken another big step forward.
This is a prison state, a princess prison state, unprecedented and extremely ridiculous!
No one in the court has spoken yet, because they are waiting for others to speak.
Prime Minister Qin, Prime Minister Shen, and many other officials from the three provinces and six ministries would not agree. They would not allow such a ridiculous thing to happen. It is not decent at all!
However, the facts surprised them again.
The imagined scene of the ministers collectively remonstrating did not happen. Even the censors collectively silenced themselves. It seemed that some kind of tacit agreement had been reached before the morning court.
Regarding this matter, only a few officials spoke here and there. They seemed not to have expected such a situation in the court. They spoke very tactfully and then retreated to their seats.
Another major initiative, unprecedented since the founding of the People's Republic of China, was born in the hands of His Majesty.
Some officials who thought they had waited until spring found to their despair that this winter seemed to be colder than ever.
Your Majesty is at best a favor to Marquis Li County. As a monarch and a wise monarch, he has the most basic bottom line.
However, the eldest princess—who in the entire court doesn’t know about the relationship between Li County Marquis and the eldest princess?
The two knew each other when they were in Qing'an Mansion. That day's punishment was created by Li County Marquis, but it was presented to Your Majesty by Her Royal Highness the Princess. It is said that when Her Royal Highness the Princess concealed her identity and was a head catcher in Qing'an Mansion, Li County Marquis was the one who
County Lieutenant, who knows what is going on between this male boss and his female subordinate?
What's more, after arriving in Kyoto, the relationship between the two was obvious to everyone. They were both among the three outstanding figures in Kyoto. When officials were in court, they were often seen together. After the academy was established, the women's academy was also established, and the two were
The courtyards are adjacent to each other, and both of them are the head of the same courtyard...
To put it inappropriately, Li County Marquis and the eldest princess are basically wearing the same pants!
Thinking about these things in their minds, some officials felt that the sunny sky outside had turned gray when they walked out of the hall.
Fortunately, the eldest princess is only an agent of the government. If His Majesty appoints another prince, they will be suspicious and frightened. But the princess is a princess after all. No matter how outstanding she is, no matter how much His Majesty values her, she is just a woman. As long as she is
Women can never threaten that position.
In fact, they never thought about that thing from beginning to end.
At this time, as the officials walked out of the hall, some gossip finally spread from some people.
It is said that after the court yesterday, when His Majesty, the two prime ministers, and several important ministers of the court were discussing state affairs in the imperial garden, the Marquis of Li County and Her Royal Highness the Princess were also present. At that time, both of them showed outstanding performance in the affairs of the court. Let His Majesty and several ministers appreciate his ability to shock and even impress.
Mr. Xu just said that he is a great man of his generation and a pillar of the country. This is the reason.
However, Prime Minister Qin, Prime Minister Shen and other adults did not object, probably for the same reason.
Mr. Xu and Prime Minister Qin are both veterans of the dynasty, with decades of political experience, people who can shock and impress them...
Everyone couldn't help but wonder again, could it be that the Marquis of Li County really had the talent to govern the country and the way to run the country as stated in the imperial edict?
Thinking of what happened in the court just now, they no longer had any doubts about this matter.
After all, it is impossible for the attitudes of the two prime ministers and those ministers to change so quickly, and there is no reason for His Majesty to suddenly announce that the eldest princess will temporarily take charge of the government. The only explanation is that they are really like what the gossip said. , his opinions and methods on state affairs convinced everyone present, and made His Majesty completely relieved and planned to let go temporarily...
This also allowed the ministers of the DPRK and China, including the two prime ministers, to not disobey His Majesty's decision in the slightest.
Thinking of the age of the two of them, I don’t know how many people sighed in despair on the way down.
A pair of monsters!
Being officials in the same dynasty will inevitably lead to comparisons, but the result - it's really disappointing!
