The discussion suddenly stopped, and the officials turned to look at the person who spoke.
A name instantly appeared in everyone's mind.
Wei Zheng!
Official worship for the prince to wash horses, from the fifth grade!
Wei Zheng's figure was slightly thin, and he was wearing the crimson robe of a fifth-grade official. He looked at the officials with a smile on his face and said,
"You said that Consort Yin De and Zhang Kong only had themselves to blame for being imprisoned and beheaded. Could it be that Wu Qishan, Wang Yuan, and Liu Yu didn't have themselves to blame? Wu Qishan, Wang Yuan, and Liu Yu were typical fence-sitters. They had taken bribes from King Qin's Mansion many times. Now, they had changed sides at the last minute when they saw that the situation was not good. Although the Emperor was young, he could see things clearly. That was why he had sent down the lightning bolt. How could he not see it?”
His words were filled with contempt.
The few officials who were discussing earlier were instantly enraged. A middle-aged official who was also a Rank-5 shook his head and said,""Wei Zheng, even if it's as you say, Wu Qishan, Wang Yuan, and Liu Yu deserved it, what about the three majesties?”
"That's right!" An old man in the same official robe snorted coldly and said,"His Highness the Eastern Palace and His Highness King Qi have been called by His Majesty to wash horses and eat melon seeds. Even His Highness the King of Qin, His Majesty's father, has become a coachman.”
Wei Zheng looked at him calmly and said,"Do you think this is nonsense? If such nonsense could suppress the three kings and make their subordinates unable to stir up any trouble, why was there not even a trace of it in the history books since ancient times?”
"Moreover, His Majesty's actions are tantamount to controlling the three majesties. Without the three majesties, will the imperial court still be in chaos?”
Hearing this, the expressions of the officials changed drastically.
Wei Zheng's words were not unreasonable!
The reason why the princelings and Qin Wang's faction fought endlessly was because they were involved in the battle for the throne.
The reason why the Supreme Emperor dismissed the three majesties from all their official positions was to quell this conflict. However, they were still three sons, after all. The Supreme Emperor could not bear it, so he asked Pei Ji to advise and let the little Emperor issue an edict to appoint the three majesties as the three provincial governors.
However, the little Emperor had seen through it and refused to accept it!
All the officials understood that if the three princes became the governors of the three provinces, they would be the prime ministers with real power. At that time, there would probably be a new party struggle.
The little Emperor chose to keep them by her side.
It seemed like the three majesties were at the center of power, but they could no longer control the government!
Without their backbone, the princes and Qin Wang's faction naturally could not fight anymore!
At the bottom of the matter.
Everything started when the little Emperor rejected Pei Ji's advice!
Some of the officials secretly clicked their tongues and said, This means that our little Emperor doesn't look so simple!”
"You're wrong again!"
Wei Zheng suddenly shook his head and said in a deep voice,"In my opinion, this is all the Supreme Emperor's intention!"”
The will of the Supreme Emperor?
Hearing this, the officials suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.
That's right!
It must be the will of the Supreme Emperor!
The little Emperor was only eight years old this year!
Why did the Supreme Emperor abdicate the throne to him? Why did the little Emperor act so thunderously as soon as he ascended the throne?
It was probably the little Emperor's unintentional words. He was very obedient!
Because Li Tai was obedient!
That was why he was able to obtain the throne!
Because he was obedient, he would do whatever the Supreme Emperor wanted. That was why his methods were extraordinary!
All of this was not done by the little Emperor.
Instead, the Retired Emperor stood behind him!
"I see!"
"Fortunately, Xuan Cheng explained it. Otherwise, I don't know how long it would take us to understand!”
The officials immediately smiled and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. This was right. His Majesty was only eight years old. How could he know all this? It must be the Supreme Emperor's will!
Wei Zheng also smiled and cupped his hands at the officials. However, he did not mind. He could only say that they did not have a good eye for problems. How could they not see through it so easily? After all, an eight-year-old child could think of all this. How could he have such methods?
All of this.
It must be the Supreme Emperor's intention!
……
Taiji Palace, Yin Yang Hall.
"What did you say?"
"Consort Yin De was imprisoned, Zhang Kong was beheaded, Wu Qishan's entire family was exiled, and Wang Yuan and Liu Yu were thrown into prison.”
"I asked you to advise Jiancheng, Yuanji, and Shimin to take up the posts of the three provincial governors. What? Li Tai didn't agree? Not only did he not agree, but he also asked Jiancheng to wash the horses, Shimin to drive the carriage, and Yuanji to eat melon seeds for him?”
"He didn't do a single one of the things I instructed him to do?!”
"Then, as the Supreme Emperor, wouldn't I really become a Supreme Emperor in retirement?!”
An old voice cried out,"
"Pei Ji, you bastard, how can you do this!!”
Seeing Li Yuan's face that was filled with anger, Pei Ji smiled bitterly and said,
"Supreme Emperor, this is not my fault. I also wanted the little Emperor to listen to me, but the little Emperor did not listen to me no matter what I said. He just kept on causing trouble. Supreme Emperor even made the head of the guards, Shen Lian, listen to His Majesty's orders, which was no different from giving His Majesty military power. At that time, no one could stop him in the court, and no one dared to stop him!”
"Hmm?"
"When did I make Shen Lian listen to Li Tai's orders?" Li Yuan was stunned.”
Pei Ji was stunned," The Supreme Emperor did not ask Shen Lian to listen to His Majesty's orders?”
"No!" Li Yuan said in an unquestionable tone.”
After receiving an affirmative answer, Pei Ji's expression changed drastically. Li Yuan's expression also turned ugly. At this moment, the two of them clearly understood a problem.
The abdication of the throne to Li Tai.
Something went wrong!
