In the Prime Minister's Mansion, there were three adults sitting in the hall, and the hot tea in their hands had been changed cup after cup.

"Hasn't the Prime Minister come back yet?"

"Yes, it's been an hour...... "Several adults are also famous figures in Kyoto, where have they waited for so long.

The housekeeper stood aside and smiled apologetically, "Your Excellency went out to deal with affairs and will be back soon." ”

Several adults looked at each other, they had all returned in vain the first few times, how did they know that it would be such a coincidence, every time the prime minister was not in the mansion, as if they knew in advance that they would come to visit and deliberately avoided it. Some people have already come up with the intention of retreating, but the secretary of the ministry has opened his mouth.

"It's almost noon, it's rare for a few colleagues to get together, it's better to wait for the prime minister to come back in the prime minister's mansion, go down to the official to be the east, and go to Tianfu Tower to have a good meal together!"

His meaning is very obvious, he can't let the prime minister escape today.

"Lord Shangshu is right, since it is rare for your colleagues to come, and the Prime Minister is entangled in official business, it doesn't hurt to wait a little longer."

Then several adults made up their minds, changed into a few cups of hot tea, and began to wait more patiently.

After some time, there was a sound outside, and they looked up to see the young man step in with an apologetic smile.

"Oops, I didn't know how many adults were coming today, so I've been waiting for you for a long time, it's rude!" Situ Zhen's face was full of apologies, and a few adults who were still resentful immediately laughed, "Where is it, the prime minister is hard, and it is really a blessing for the people to manage every day!" ”

Situ Zhen smiled, and then instructed the housekeeper on the side, "Come on, prepare food." "Let them wait any longer, I am afraid that I will have to face it today, so I might as well listen to what they want to say.

"Do you know about Your Majesty's dismissal of Lord Zhang?" The official department went straight to the point and directly revealed the purpose of their visit today.

Situ Zhen's eyes flashed with a streamer, did they want to find out their attitude?

"Well, Lord Zhang's business is just luck."

"That's not necessarily, Prime Minister, Lord Zhang has been with our colleagues for many years, and we all know his personality! This time, His Majesty's excuse for enclosing land is simply a person with a heart who framed Lord Zhang, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that the DPRK and China will be in chaos! ”

The young man sipped his tea slowly, but his face didn't reveal much information. "However, His Majesty would not have given this order unless there was sufficient evidence in his hands."

"Evidence, that can be faked! Lord Zhang is an honest official, how many things have he done for the Lotus State, and His Majesty doesn't know which traitor he was deceived and actually cut off Lord Zhang's position, I am really afraid to think about it. ”

The official Shangshu then opened his mouth, "When Your Majesty made this decision, could it be that the Prime Minister didn't know? We thought that with the friendship between the Prime Minister and Lord Zhang, we would definitely intercede for him! Presumably, His Majesty is hiding orders from the Prime Minister. ”

Situ Zhen smiled, and then sighed helplessly. "It is precisely because Lord Zhang has a slight friendship with the lower officials, so His Majesty will not discuss this matter with the lower officials."

said that it was a friendship, but that Lord Zhang had visited him in the mansion a few times, implying that he had no more in-depth communication after he was rejected for something. And listening to the words of the Ministry of Officials, it is clear that he wants to provoke the relationship between him and the Lotus Emperor.

"Your Majesty is really chilling to do this! Although the Prime Minister is young, his talent is unmatched in the Lotus Kingdom, but all the affairs of the court and China are assisted by the Prime Minister. Your Majesty is now good at making claims, but I'm afraid that I have a dislike for the Prime Minister! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty has been doing a lot of things in recent days, so please be careful. At this juncture, we should unite even more, and we can't let Your Majesty willfully delay the future of the Lotus Kingdom for a while. ”

Sure enough, as he expected, in recent days, they were in order to ally with him.

Situ Zhen's heart was like a mirror, and seeing that he didn't speak, several adults couldn't sit still. "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

"Well, yes, yes."

Everyone was happy, if the Prime Minister was willing to stand on their side, then His Majesty would no longer be able to dismiss their people in his own way!

"So, I wonder what the Prime Minister's plan is?"

"Although Your Majesty has not paid attention to the affairs of the DPRK for many years, he still knows the affairs of the DPRK and China well, and the most important thing at the moment is to do our duty well. Word of mouth is established, even if Your Majesty has that thought, he will think twice. ”

The prime minister's words are equivalent to not saying them.

Several adults were a little anxious, "Prime Minister, now in the struggle between His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang, we have completely become victims. I have been an official for many years, and Your Majesty doesn't care about our efforts at all, which really makes it difficult for people to continue to do things for Your Majesty! ”

"Why don't we jointly write a letter together to intercede for Lord Zhang, what does the Prime Minister think?"

With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, Situ Zhen slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and suddenly coughed violently, "Ahem...... Ahem...... Also, yes, yes. ”

"My lord, what's wrong with you?!"

"Hey...... In recent days, the weather has been changeable, and the official has suffered from insomnia, so ...... So I contracted the wind chill. ”

What the? But it's okay......

"My lord, why don't you let the doctor take a look?"

Situ Zhen waved his hand, "Let the adults laugh, cough cough...... Ahem...... Hey, housekeeper, take a few adults to dinner, this official, this official wants to go back to take the medicine, cough cough...... Ahem......"

After that, he let the maid beside him help him slowly walk into the inner hall.

"This ...... Then the Prime Minister, do you want to write a joint letter with us tomorrow? ”

In the room in the inner courtyard, the old lady was lying on the couch, her face a little weak and pale.

The door creaked and slowly opened, and the man who was still coughing was back to his original state at this moment. He closed the door, his eyes clear.

"Zhen'er, I heard that today, several adults came to visit again."

The old lady's heart is like a mirror, and she naturally knows that the current Lotus Kingdom court is not peaceful.

"It's been sent away, and my mother doesn't have to worry."

He stepped aside and turned a basin of hot water and wrung a towel, and came to the couch to gently wipe the back of his mother's hands.

"Lord Zhang is in prison? But the one who came to ask you to intercede for him? ”

Situ Zhen smiled, "How can the things decided by Your Majesty be easily changed." Although the child is young, he is not so simple to be this bird. ”

The old lady on the couch was a little worried, "Now that the wind is surging in the court, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for you to stay out of the matter." Besides, that Lord Zhang seems to be a person who has been cultivated by the Emperor Taishang for many years, but I am afraid that he will not be so easily. ”

"Erchen understands."

"Mother knows that you already have some ideas, and now that Your Majesty is full-fledged, can you figure out which team you want to stand on?"

Situ Zhen, as the youngest prime minister in the history of the Lotus Kingdom, in addition to his much-anticipated talent, there are also some forces that operate secretly. Although he didn't say it so clearly at the beginning, Situ Zhen vaguely understood that he could sit in this position now, but he was afraid that he would have unfinished feelings and unfinished things in the future, and the information had been faintly revealed in the past few visits from several adults.

"Although Your Majesty has given me a heavy responsibility over the years, as several adults said, this time I have not talked about the removal of Lord Zhang to the child, but I am afraid that he has always been suspicious of the child in his heart."

"So, you plan to support the Emperor?"

Situ Zhen pulled the quilt for the old lady, "It seems that Your Majesty is not strong enough to compete with the Emperor Taishang, but Erchen thinks that it is time for the current Lotus Kingdom to change its blood." ”

Yes, the Lotus Kingdom has always been very powerful, but over the years, Situ Zhen has found that the strength of the Lotus Kingdom has stopped there, and he can't see a more magnificent future. It is not a good thing to rest on his laurels, and one day he will be surpassed by other countries, although that day he may not be able to see it in his lifetime.

But Situ Zhen's ability to sit firmly in the position of prime minister is also related to his style. He doesn't like pedantic things and loves adventure and challenges.

"Zhen'er, are you still thinking about that girl?"

Situ Zhen's eyes flashed, and then she smiled, "Mother, Zhen'er doesn't want to get married yet." ”

"So, Taifu's granddaughter, why don't you go and take a look?"

Situ Zhen is her old man, obviously at the age of starting a family, but she doesn't care about any woman. It was only when she met the woman who saved her in the temple that she felt a different breath from her son.

"Now that the DPRK and China are in turmoil, the child naturally does not have that thought. Moreover...... The woman is not a child who can conceive. ”

The old lady did not have the opportunity to participate in the feast in the palace due to physical reasons, so she didn't know that Yun Shu had become the eldest princess, but she was just missing.

Situ Zhen had seen Yun Shu a few times later, but he had already understood that the woman was standing very far away from him, and there were not many people in the Lotus Kingdom who made him jealous, but the eldest prince was one of them. And that woman is the sweetheart of the eldest prince.

Although he was entangled in affairs, he still remembered that beautiful face occasionally, but now it was a different feeling.

Maybe it's emotion, maybe it's curiosity and inquiry.

Where is she now? But to avoid the limelight with the eldest prince? Indeed, now that she has become the target of the Emperor, it is the wisest choice to find a place where no one is there to hide. If this battle is won by His Majesty, then in other days, the person who ascends to the throne is very likely to be the Great Prince, and she will become the queen of the Lotus Kingdom.

For some reason, Situ Zhen felt that this was the best choice for the Lotus Kingdom. That wise woman came to be the queen of the Lotus Kingdom, and it must not be the scene today. He even looked forward to what kind of changes would happen when the eldest prince ascended the throne as emperor and ruled the Lotus Kingdom with Miss Gongsun. Perhaps because of this idea, the road in Situ Zhen's heart has gradually brightened.
