Both Kong Yingda and Fang Xuanling looked a little helpless. In their hearts, in fact, they were unwilling, because without Wang Can, the situation would be different even if they were in the court.
Therefore, the two of them were reluctant.
Wang Can knew what they were thinking as soon as he saw their expressions, and said: "In short, you two don't have to leave for now. We will consider it after the court's arrangements for you come down. This matter is settled.
You don’t need to discuss it any further.”
"yes!"
Fang Xuanling and Kong Yingda answered simultaneously.
Wang Can waved his hand, Fang Xuanling and Kong Yingda turned and left.
Wang Can also got up and went to the backyard.
He now has two women in the backyard, one is Li Xiuning and the other is Yang Lizhi. These two are getting along very well now. Seeing Wang Can back, both of them are happy in their hearts.
Wang Can chatted with the two of them. After talking for a while, Li Xiuning said: "Husband, before you came back, Kong Yingda and Fang Xuanling came to me and said that they wanted to reward me for my husband's triumphant return. Your Majesty's plan,
I am planning to wait for my husband to come back and confer him the title of King of Zhou, making him a king with a different surname in the Sui Dynasty."
Yang Li asked: "My husband's contribution to the Sui Dynasty is in the country. His achievements are unmatched by anyone in the whole dynasty."
Wang Can chuckled and said: "I don't care whether the King of Zhou is not the King of Zhou. Because now, the Sui Dynasty has reached its peak. Even if His Majesty, you can confer me the title of King of Zhou, but then I will prepare to resign.
The official retired to seclusion."
Yang Lizhi exclaimed: "Husband, you actually want to resign?"
Li Xiuning said: "Husband, have you thought it through?"
The two people asked different questions and had different attitudes. Li Xiuning didn't care at all whether Wang Can was an official or not. What she cared about was to follow Wang Can. As long as Wang Can decided to do something, she would follow.
Wang Can chuckled and said: "There is no problem, I have already thought about it clearly. I have already told His Majesty about the resignation. I guess tomorrow, even if there is a decree to seal the king of Zhou, it will be nothing, just take it.
"
When Yang Lizhi and Li Xiuning heard this, they stopped talking.
They listened to Wang Can.
Wang Can chatted with the two girls, and the atmosphere was extremely tolerant. It was a beautiful night, and the next morning, Wang Can got up early, dressed neatly, and went to the court.
This morning, there were many people there.
Because this is a great meeting.
Many important officials in the court gathered together on this morning and went to the court one after another. As soon as Wang Can appeared, all the officials who had already arrived at the gate of the imperial city gathered together.
Everyone came to Wang Can's side and saluted Wang Can respectfully.
Wang Can nodded in greeting one by one.
However, while all the courtiers were waiting, a eunuch came to Wang Can first and said, "Master, please follow me."
Wang Can nodded.
While everyone was waiting for the time to enter the palace, Wang Can had already entered the palace first. Even though many officials around him were envious of Wang Can's treatment, they also knew that this was a benefit that no one could get.
Only Wang Can has this kind of treatment.
It's impossible for everyone else.
After Wang Can entered the palace, he went straight to Yang Guang's palace under the leadership of the young eunuch. At this time, Yang Guang had already gotten up, already wearing a dragon robe and a crown, sitting upright.
Seeing Wang Can enter, Yang Guang waved his hand and said: "Master, sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wang Can thanked him and took his seat as instructed.
Yang Guang asked: "Master, have you had breakfast?"
"No!"
Wang Can shook his head and answered.
Yang Guang showed a hint of joy on his face and said: "Master, in the morning, the eunuch in the palace took a stick of old wild ginseng to stew. This old wild ginseng is full of spiritual energy. After drinking it, it can increase a little bit of true energy.
The most important thing is that it can nourish your vitality. Come and give the Imperial Master a bowl of soup."
Immediately, someone brought a bowl of soup.
Wang Can naturally refused to accept anyone who came and drank a bowl of soup. In fact, for Wang Can, such a bowl of Laoshan Ginseng soup did not have much impact and would not improve anything, but it would not
What's the disadvantage.
Yang Guang and Wang Can both just drank soup and did not eat other meals. Because nowadays, Yang Guang actually has very little demand for rice, etc. On the contrary, it is more suitable for old ginseng and the like.
After the two drank the soup, they chatted and time passed quickly.
As time passed, not long after, a young eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to court. All the ministers have entered the main hall."
"knew!"
Yang Guang nodded and answered.
He stood up and took Wang Can to the main hall. But as soon as he entered the main hall, Yang Guang took Wang Can's hand and went straight to the dragon chair directly above the main hall.
As soon as he arrived at the location of the dragon chair, Yang Guang said: "National Master, sit with me."
"No, no!"
Wang Can shook his head and answered.
Although Wang Can doesn't have any scruples now, in fact, he still doesn't want to overstep his bounds.
Yang Guang insisted on letting Wang Can sit down, so in the end, Wang Can sat down directly next to Yang Guang. At this time, Yang Guang looked around at the ministers of the court and said in a deep voice: "The imperial master has made outstanding contributions in the Sui Dynasty.
The Imperial Master is sitting next to me, do you have any comments?"
"No!"
Yang Lin was the first to stand up and speak.
For Yang Lin, Wang Can was about to leave the court, so even if Wang Can was sitting next to Yang Guang, he had nothing to say and agreed with him.
Following Yang Lin's statement, the other courtiers also spoke one by one, because even veterans like Yang Lin had already recognized Wang Can, let alone other courtiers?
What's more, Yang You has learned from the past.
Now, no one has come forward.
Because whoever stands up is seeking death.
Yang Guang continued: "Since we all have no objections, let's talk about the second thing. The Imperial Guards killed the enemy on the front line and made great contributions to the expansion of the territory of the Sui Dynasty. Therefore, today, I will reward you for my merits and grant a state seal.
The teacher is the great king of Sui and Zhou."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone handed over the edict.
Such a situation is almost non-existent. It is impossible for the emperor to issue an edict, but the person who receives the edict does nothing and just waits to get the edict. But Wang Can is different. Yang Guang also ignored the legal provisions, so there is
Current arrangements.
Wang Can did not ask for help. He stood up, accepted the edict, and saluted Yang Guang.
Then, Wang Can walked to the main hall and stood still.
After Wang Can stood still, he said: "Your Majesty, please resign."
"boom!!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a wave of discussion in the hall. Countless officials had shocked looks on their faces, because none of them expected that Wang Can would resign at the height of his power.
It was so unexpected.
In the eyes of everyone, Wang Can is still young and has been influencing the situation of the Sui Dynasty for countless years. But when everyone was caught off guard, Wang Can actually proposed to resign.
It's hard to understand.
Although everyone was talking, many people's hearts were already alive.
Wang Can served as the national advisor of the Sui Dynasty.
In the Imperial Prefecture, the presence of Wang Can's assistants was like establishing a cabinet and a small imperial court, which emptied out the three provinces and six ministries of the imperial court, making the three provinces and six ministries become the mouthpieces for spreading messages without any rights.
But when Wang Can left the court, the Imperial Preceptor's Office disappeared.
In the court, there is no small cabinet.
Then the officials from the three provinces and six ministries in the court suddenly gained power. From this aspect, many people were already extremely excited and were looking forward to Wang Can's departure.
Because Wang Can is here, the officials of the three provinces and six ministries have never been able to get ahead. Only when Wang Can leaves will the officials in the court have room for development, and they will not be suppressed everywhere like they are now.
However, some officials also sighed in their hearts.
Because the Imperial Preceptor's Office has the final say in the court, when the Imperial Preceptor's Office was in charge, the Imperial Preceptor's Office also promoted many officials, making the Imperial Preceptor's Office's control over the imperial court strong.
Of course, these people are dedicated to serving the country.
They know that Wang Can is here, so Sui Dynasty will have the Dinghai Shenzhen to prevent any trouble. Once Wang Can leaves Sui Dynasty, no one can predict what will happen next in Sui Dynasty.
What will it evolve into?
Will Your Majesty still practice Taoism?
Therefore, many officials still feel uneasy and worry that they will not be able to handle court affairs well.
Wang Can looked around, and wherever he looked, everyone stopped talking for an instant. A pair of eyes fell on Wang Can, and Wang Can continued: "I beg your Majesty to approve!"
"That's right!"
Yang Guang didn't say much and directly approved
After all, this is something that has been agreed upon.
However, Yang Guang said: "The Imperial Preceptor is resigning, but the Imperial Preceptor has the title of King Zhou, so there is no need to resign. The Imperial Preceptor no longer serves in the court, but if the Imperial Preceptor wants to enter the court at any time, he can directly do so.
Yes, there is no need to report anything. From the Sui Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, any official who saw the Imperial Master would treat him as if he saw me."
Wang Can said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
He knew that Yang Guang's actions were all compensation for him, or Yang Guang's gratitude to him.
After Yang Guang arranged Wang Can's affairs, he said in a deep voice: "Although the Imperial Preceptor is no longer in office, the officials in the Imperial Preceptor's office cannot leave. Now, I am establishing a cabinet. The status of this cabinet is among the six ministers.
Above, it is at the same level as the three provinces, but the cabinet members are directly subordinate to me, and all government affairs, big and small, are handed over to the cabinet."
Wow!!
The officials were discussing again.
If the Imperial Prefect's Office is gone, then the small cabinet above the Imperial Preceptor's Office will also be gone. But no one expected that the moment the Imperial Prefect's Office disappeared, Yang Guang would set up a cabinet again in the blink of an eye.
Although the cabinet is at the same level as the three provinces, the problem is that the officials of the small cabinet have to handle government affairs for Yang Guang and are always close to Yang Guang. Under such a premise, the cabinet officials are actually still more powerful than the three provinces. This is equivalent to
The real prime minister with real power.
The main officials of the imperial court looked at Yang Guang.
They all watched eagerly, because only by joining the cabinet can they dominate the situation of the Sui Dynasty and influence the future development direction of the Sui Dynasty.
