Chapter 299: Helpless Move
Xiao Qian, the heavenly court, seemed listless when discussing the government, although Nan Jinyan also asked for his opinion as usual, but he refused, saying that let the emperor decide.
Although Nan Jinyan is not very old, he also knows that Xiao Qian is vomiting, because he is still angry about the construction of the palace. In order to prove that he was capable, he did not show weakness, but chose ministers who usually did not have a particularly good relationship with Xiao Qian to discuss, and listened to the opinions of others.
Xiao Qian, who was still thinking about changing the emperor's mind, was completely disappointed at this time. After going down, he directly told Nan Jinyan that he was unwell and wanted to stay in the house to rest for two days.
Nan Jinyan knew that Xiao Qian was angry, but he couldn't say it directly, if he begged for Xiao Qian, it would not necessarily give him face, but would also make him lose face in front of the minister.
In fact, every minister knows that Xiao Qian has always been behind the emperor's back, otherwise many things would not go so smoothly. But the young and vigorous Nan Jinyan didn't believe in this evil, and even wanted to take this opportunity to prove himself.
After the next dynasty, Lord Li stayed, and he has recently won the trust of the emperor, so he is in a particularly good mood.
"Thank you for the emperor's trust, and I will do my best to do it well."
Nan Jinyan nodded, "I believe in Aiqing's ability, that's why I handed over such an important matter to you, and I believe that you will definitely be able to take on this important responsibility." ”
"The minister will definitely not disappoint the emperor."
Master Li is indeed very moved, it is indeed a rare thing for someone like him, who does not have many abilities, to be so reused. After discussing for a while, Nan Jinyan motioned for him to leave.
He let out a long sigh, in fact, it was not a wise move to reuse Master Li, his ability was average, but he was more good at sycophancy. Nan Jinyan also has his own plans, and he also wants to cultivate his own power.
After Master Li left, Gonggong Liu came over with tea, "Your Majesty, you are also tired, drink a cup of tea to relieve fatigue." ”
Nan Jinyan looked at Liu Quan and asked seriously: "Father-in-law Liu, you also saw the performance of Lord Shoufu just now, he must be very unhappy, right?" I know that he is sick because he is unhappy, otherwise he is in good health, how could he suddenly get sick? ”
Gonggong Liu was a little embarrassed, as a eunuch, he was really embarrassed to talk about the affairs of the imperial court, but Nan Jinyan liked to talk to him every time, and slowly he didn't care too much.
He nodded, "Lord Shoufu has always held opposing opinions, and it is very normal for the emperor to feel uncomfortable when the emperor made such a decision today, and it is also human nature. ”
"Although I know what he means, it is impossible to rely on him in everything, I am the emperor!"
"The emperor is angry, since the emperor has decided on this matter, the ministers should have no reason to oppose it. However, in the future, the emperor still has to listen to the opinions of Lord Shousuke. After all, many ministers are still waiting and watching, and only if Lord Shoufu is of the same mind as the emperor, they will not see the wind and rudder. Although the second prince has now returned to the fiefdom, we don't know how much power he has in the imperial court. ”
Nan Jinyan said coldly: "Slowly, I will definitely clean them up." It's just that because the time is not yet ripe, let them be proud for a while."
Hearing this, Gonggong Liu became nervous, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't say this, it won't be good if people hear it." Some people are in a wait-and-see state, if they know that the emperor has a grudge against them, then they will definitely be in fear, and they will not be loyal to their duties. ”
Nan Jinyan snorted coldly, "I am the emperor, but I still have to look at the faces of these people, I really can't stand it." ”
"Your Majesty, bear with me for a while, after all, the situation is special now." Gonggong Liu was also very helpless.
"Now Xiao Qian is also messing with me, but I can't say anything more about him, does he think I can't do without him?"
"Of course not, the emperor, you are the king of a country, everything should be your final say, but now the situation is a bit special, after all, you are young, and you have only been on the throne for a few months, and the queen mother has always handled the government before, so some things may not be very familiar."
Hearing Gonggong Liu's persuasion, the emperor not only did not lose his anger, but became even more angry.
He slapped the table vigorously and said angrily: "I am indeed young, there is nothing wrong with this, and the time of the Commission for Discipline Inspection is not long, but you can't let the minister make all the decisions because of this." On the surface, I am the Ninety-Five, but in fact they are in power. ”
"These people just have their own ghosts, everyone wants to collect their own strength in the court, and there is no one who is truly loyal to the country. If a minister is not selfish, then they should not remember to disobey me and make all the decisions. ”
Hearing such words, Gonggong Liu was also stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while, of course he knew that the emperor's statement was wrong, but he didn't dare to continue to persuade him, in case he angered the emperor, he would be in trouble.
Gonggong Liu knew that although Nan Jinyan was the emperor, many decisions made according to his experience and thinking would not work, and would cause serious losses to the country. But Nan Jinyan didn't seem to understand this truth, because Xiao Qian's illness and return home made him feel that his dignity had been challenged.
He looked at Gonggong Liu, and then said: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of loyalty to the King, don't they understand this truth?" Wasn't everything they had given by the imperial court? At that time, how many favors did my father give them, so that they could become human beings, but now that my father is gone, they are relying on the old and selling the old in front of me. ”
"As long as you are dissatisfied with my statement, you will move my father out. But they forgot that I was the son of my father, and since they were grateful to him, they should do their best to help me. Some people think that they are full of wealth, but they leave the court and are useless. ”
Nan Jinyan scolded those ministers in his mouth, thinking that those ministers had no effect if they left him, but he ignored a problem, that is, if he, the emperor, left those ministers, it was impossible to handle the affairs of the country well.
The fate of the country is indeed closely linked to the emperor, but it is also inseparable from the merits of those civil and military ministers. The emperor is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and thinks about many things simply.
Listening to the emperor's complaints, Gonggong Liu didn't dare to say anything. I can't refute the emperor's point of view, and I can't follow his wishes and curse those civil and military officials with him. Because Gonggong Liu is not a child, he knows the stakes, and he can't stop the emperor's thoughts as a eunuch.
