The next morning at court, Qin Jiyan showed up on time as usual. He was far away and the courtiers couldn't see his face, but they could tell from his voice alone that Qin Jiyan must have stayed up all night last night.
The ministers did not show it on their faces, but they were secretly worried in their hearts. They were worried that something was really wrong with the Emperor, and they were even more worried that their emperor would go out again to seek medical treatment for the Emperor.
Anyone who can gain a foothold in the court is not a fool. The Emperor was seriously ill at this time. No one would believe it if there was nothing fishy about it, but no one dared to say it.
Soon, the worries of the courtiers came true. After the discussion, Qin Jiyan announced, "The Supreme Emperor is seriously ill. I will go to sea to find the Gate of Immortality and seek medicine for the Supreme Emperor."
"Your Majesty, no." Qin Jiyan opened his mouth and immediately attracted opposition from the courtiers, but...
"I'm telling you, not asking for your opinion." This is Qin Jiyan. Once he makes a decision, no one can shake it. Just like before, he knew that leaving Beijing privately would bring endless trouble, but he still had no choice.
Just like leaving hesitantly.
"Your Majesty, the country cannot live without a king for a day. Please, Your Majesty, please think twice." The courtiers all knelt down and begged.
"A country cannot live without a king for a day? Do you want to force me to establish a crown prince or pass the throne?" Qin Jiyan sarcastically said with a smile but not a smile, and his words were full of threats.
The courtier's face turned pale, and he kowtowed and admitted his mistake, "I had no intention of doing so. Please check it out clearly." The Holy Emperor had just ascended the throne and had no heirs, so how could they dare to raise the issue of establishing a heir.
"Since you are not forcing me to abdicate, please don't say such words again in the future. You are all the pillars of our Great Qin, and I feel relieved to have you here." Qin Jiyan hammered down the sound, not giving the courtiers a chance to speak at all, "
In half a year, whether I have found the medicine or not, I will come back. My dear friends, you have worked hard these past six months."
"Your Majesty, no, absolutely no!" The courtiers begged again, each with a grimace on their faces, but Qin Jiyan ignored them and directly announced his withdrawal from the court.
"Your Majesty..." All the civil and military officials knelt down, but Qin Jiyan still ignored him and went back to the palace.
Qin Xiaoyan has been preparing to leave Beijing for a long time. Now that the court is stable and there is no threat of foreign invasion, Qin Jiyan doesn't feel like he has to wait any longer.
After retiring from the court, Qin Jiyan asked Qin Tianjian to pick a good time and he would set off today.
When Qin Tianjian received the news, he almost fainted, but it was useless to faint. The emperor asked him to pick the time. Unless he died now, he would have to pick the time anyway.
Before Qin Jiyan set off, the eunuch in charge came in. After the ceremony, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, those adults are still kneeling in the hall. I hope your Majesty can change your mind."
"Tell them, I will leave the palace today. Anyone who tries to stop me will be punished as a murderer of the Supreme Emperor." He was not allowed to leave the capital to search for medicine, which delayed the rescue of the Supreme Emperor. What else could it be if it wasn't murder?
"This..." The eunuch in charge looked at Qin Jiyan with a troubled expression, but after meeting Qin Jiyan's cold eyes, he hurriedly retracted his words of persuasion, lowered his head in response, took two steps back, and left in a hurry.
"Hmph..." Qin Jiyan snorted coldly, with a mocking smile on his lips.
He knew that because he decided to leave Beijing, many people were already looking for a way out.
Risks at sea are difficult to avoid. He himself doesn't know whether he can come back alive from this trip to sea. It is normal for people around him to have second thoughts, but... being normal does not mean that he will condone it.
Everyone around him knows him well, and if these people betray him, they will cause him a lot of trouble.
"Since you have second thoughts, don't blame me for being rude." Qin Jiyan placed his left hand on the soft sword at his waist.
This sword represents the Dark Wind Tower, the most powerful killer organization in the world. Although the Dark Wind Tower has been destroyed, the lean camels are bigger than horses. Although the remaining killers are older, they still have to kill several people.
It's still very easy.
Without any hesitation, Qin Jiyan ordered the secret guards to give his orders to several assassins in Anfeng Tower. He asked them to keep an eye on the people on the list and kill them immediately if they showed any tendency to betray.
Although the assassins of Anfeng Tower were a little dissatisfied with Qin Jiyan for not rebuilding Anfeng Tower, they did not dare to act recklessly because of Qin Jiyan's status. They would know the orders given by Qin Jiyan even if they risked their lives.
Finish.
Leaving behind, Qin Jiyan thought about it carefully, and after making sure that there were no omissions, he stood up and walked out.
An hour later, Qin Jiyan's dragon drove out of the palace. After receiving the news, the ministers knelt outside the palace gate and begged Qin Jiyan to put the world first and not leave the capital. Some ministers even tried to remonstrate with death. Fortunately, Qin Jiyan
The Imperial Guards around Ji Yan had already taken precautions and rescued him first, otherwise blood would really be splattered at the palace gate today.
Faced with the strong opposition from the courtiers, Qin Jiyan did not ignore it this time, but walked out of the dragon trap, "I am a son first, and then a king. All ministers are also sons and fathers. You are here
While trying to persuade me, I also thought that if it were you, how could you just watch your grandfather become critically ill without making any efforts?"
"I lost my father when I was five years old, and my mother soon after. It was the Supreme Emperor who personally raised me. The Supreme Emperor is king and lord in your hearts, but in my heart he is just a grandfather. My grandfather is critically ill, and my parents cannot fulfill their filial piety in front of my grandfather. I
How can you ignore it?"
"The common people in the world are important, and my grandfather is equally important in my heart. If I don't even care about my grandfather who educated me, how can I care about the common people in the world?"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Qin Jiyan's words were reasonable and righteous. The courtiers did not dare to persuade him and could only kowtow desperately.
Qin Jiyan had a solemn look on his face, but said resolutely: "My lords, please don't try to persuade me any more. I have given up my mind. If I don't make this trip, I will regret it for the rest of my life. Please rest assured, lords, I will not take over the world."
It’s just a child’s play for the common people. No matter whether I have found the medicine for the Supreme Emperor in half a year or not, I will come back. In the past six months, I ask you all to be more considerate.”
After finishing speaking, Qin Jiyan bowed his hands and saluted everyone.
"Your Majesty... I don't dare." The ministers who were kneeling on the ground were startled, and turned sideways one by one, not daring to accept Qin Jiyan's courtesy.
Qin Jiyan didn't care about them. After bowing to himself, he stood up straight and said, "Jiao Aiqing, Liu Aiqing, I will leave the affairs of the court to you two."
"My minister, I will definitely live up to the emperor's high expectations." Mr. Jiao had been mentally prepared for a long time. Although he came with the courtiers to persuade Qin Jiyan, he did not speak from the beginning to the end.
Liu Zhengqing hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Lord Jiao, who was the chief assistant, agreed, he could only sigh and agree, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I guarantee with my life that I will never let down the Emperor's trust."
No matter what position they are in, the power of these ministers comes from the emperor. No matter what happens in normal times, they still have to stand upright and show their attitude at critical moments.
"I believe in your abilities."
With these words behind him, Qin Jiyan turned around and stepped onto Longmen and left the city...
