C829 Imperial Father Is Wise
0Just as Shen Muqing was indulging in his fantasies, Wei Zhongxian's voice sounded, "Your Majesty has arrived."
Shen Muqing's expression changed, and he immediately removed all distractions from his mind and bowed to the civil and military officials, "Long live the Imperial Father, long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor."
The Human Emperor's gaze fell on Shen Muqing and he instantly frowned, "What is going on?"
Shen Muqing said, "Just now, I was sparring with Fifth Brother at the entrance of the palace. It was nothing major."
The civil and military officials thought to themselves, "You are fine. That person is now lying in a pool of blood!"
But they didn't dare to say that. If it was a normal day, Ji Chang would definitely take this opportunity to fight with Shen Muqing and scold him for disregarding etiquette. However, because of the marriage alliance, he didn't want to cause any problems.
Ying Zheng was also thinking that Shen Muqing would first take the Prime Minister chair in the cabinet, and then he would settle for Minister of Military's, and then he would argue with Shen Muqing, so he didn't say anything.
As a result, Shen Muqing entered the court wearing blood-stained clothes and committed such a huge crime. No one in the entire city dared to stand up and say it.
Usually, the Human Emperor would wait for his subjects to refute each other before coming to a conclusion. However, after waiting for a long time, no one said anything and no one blamed Shen Muqing. Suddenly, he felt like vomiting blood.
The Human Emperor suddenly said, "Then rise!"
"Thank you, royal father."
After Wei Zhongxian received the instructions, he took a step forward and said, "The State of Chu reports are sent to us. General Wang Jian annihilated the State of Chu, and for the sake of great merit, we shall reward him with the rewards. Prince of Yan recommended the merit of bestowing him with a title and rank of retainer, bestowed him with a rank and rank of a third tier prince, and bestowed him with a reward of 10,000 gold."
The civil and military officials' expressions changed. This position had been promoted too quickly, and this one was especially impressive. The three official positions of the retainer were pretty much the same as the Prime Minister's.
It was equivalent to Shen Muqing losing his position due to the lack of Lingnan.
That's why many officials thought that Shen Muqing was not able to become the cabinet minister, Prime Minister. It was because Shen Muqing also had an official position that allowed him to control the cost of his Lingnan.
In essence, he did not belong to the officials of the capital. But now that the problem was gone, he became one of the three great officials. The Human Emperor's thoughts also made everyone guess that he was truly a Sacred Heart.
This was simply the blessing of the Sacred Heart!
All of a sudden, the civil and military officials looked at Ji Chang with sympathy. Since this was already the official position, the next step would be Prime Minister.
On the other side, Ying Zheng was also panicking. The Human Emperor wasn't even going to hide his intentions anymore, and the only thing he wasn't sure of was where Shen Muqing would take his position, or whether it would be his cabinet, or his Ministry of Military, Prime Minister.
Thinking about this, Ying Zheng looked at Ji Chang with hope in his eyes, hoping that Ji Chang would fight back and drag his feet. Unexpectedly, Wu Tie's face was dark, and he didn't want to vent his resentment.
He was angered by the Human Emperor to the point that he almost lost his mind and wanted to jump out.
However, just when everyone thought Ji Chang would jump out, Ji Chang noticed Shen Muqing's gaze, which was like a splash of cold water on his head, and immediately gave in. Under everyone's gaze, Ji Chang became embarrassed and stood there without saying anything.
The officials were all stunned. "Why are you standing there and not saying anything?"
Ying Zheng encouraged him, "Second Brother, do you have something to say?"
Ji Chang's face turned red from holding in his anger. After holding in for a long time, he let out a sentence: "This son wants to say, Imperial Father is so wise!"
When the civil and military officials heard this, they immediately fell to the ground. Just what did you say when you stood up?
