After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times

Let your second uncle take over the position of Left Prime Minister!

Yu Tingwan raised her eyebrows slightly. Are they going to let the second uncle be the left prime minister?

Are the two prime ministers in the court from the same family?

Looking at his uncle's expression, Yu Tingwan shook his head.

"He never told me about this. Does my second uncle know about this?"

"Of course I know!"

Yu Tingwan turned around and saw her second uncle slowly walking towards her from the corridor, followed by her eldest cousin!

"Second uncle, eldest cousin."

Jiang Hongxi and Jiang Qingli came over, looked at Yu Tingwan, nodded, and then found a place to sit down.

"Your uncle has told you everything, right?"

Yu Tingwan nodded gently, "I said, is this what Ah Jin meant?"

"Yes, that's what the Emperor meant, but I declined!"

A family cannot have two people in high positions of power. The Jiang family is already considered unusual in the hundreds of years of imperial power changes in Da Sheng. Now, every one of them is in a high position.

If both the left and right prime ministers are from the Jiang family, then things will be very bad!

"Ting Wan, you should know that as an emperor, you should learn to balance the forces in the court and not let one person dominate. If the emperor continues like this, it will not be good for us or for the emperor. The court will be in turmoil, and there will be another bloody storm!"

Yu Tingwan also nodded in response to his second uncle’s words.

How could she not know these principles? Not only did she know them, but Shen Chenli probably knew them better.

What puzzled her was that if Shen Chenli knew this, why did he still do this?

"I see!"

Yu Tingwan looked at them and said thoughtfully, "I'll go ask Ajin what he thinks."

Jiang Hongyi sighed. If things continued like this, they were really afraid that the emperor would eventually become a tyrant!

Although they still have confidence in him!

"My two uncles, don't worry too much. Ajin is not the kind of person who will abandon the donkey after it has done its work. No, I mean, he is not the kind of person who will hide his good bows after the birds have flown away. I wonder if he has other ideas for this plan."

Several people nodded. They knew it, otherwise they would have resigned long ago!

"What are you talking about?"

As they were talking, they heard Shen Chenli's voice coming from the door. Yu Tingwan was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a little amused.

Is it true that we can’t mention people’s names behind their backs?

This attracts people!

Shen Chenli walked into the yard with a small basket in his hand. When he saw Yu Tingwan, he waved the basket.

"Meet the Emperor!"

Shen Chenli waved his hand, "No need to be polite, my two uncles and cousin, please get up quickly."

Jiang Hongyi and Jiang Hongxi were fine, but Jiang Qingli himself, when he heard the word "cousin", he always felt his legs and feet go weak and he wanted to kneel down!

Sometimes he was not sure whether the emperor had a bad taste or not. He always followed and listened to his cousin's shouting, which made him feel a little sad.

Before they could stand still, they saw Shen Chenli walking towards them with big strides, then opened the food box in his hand, revealing a plate of crystal clear pastries inside.

"Wanwan, this is the jade hibiscus jelly cake newly made by the imperial chef. It is cool and refreshing. Try it."

After taking out the plate, he opened the food box underneath, which contained a plate of steamed glutinous rice balls.

"And this, try it too!"

Yu Tingwan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at his two uncles.

"Uncle, eat?"

The two men immediately shook their heads. They would not eat something that the emperor brought personally!

What's more, these cakes look like those for women, and these grown men really don't like them.

Seeing that they were not interested, Yu Tingwan had no choice but to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Cool and refreshing, soft and delicate, delicious!

Seeing Yu Tingwan's satisfied expression, Shen Chenli felt very satisfied. The imperial chef had made another contribution today and deserved a reward!

Although Yu Tingwan hasn't vomited much recently, her appetite is still affected due to the gradually warmer weather.

Now that I see that she likes it, the imperial chef who made this pastry can send it over today.

After Yu Tingwan ate two pieces, Shen Chenli turned his attention to his two uncles.

"I just heard you guys chatting excitedly, what are you talking about?"

Jiang Hongyi and Jiang Hongxi looked at each other, then Jiang Hongxi stood up and saluted, looking at Shen Chenli and said:

"Your Majesty, we were discussing your decision to confer an official title on me. I hope Your Majesty can take back your decision!"

"Why? There is no one more suitable than my second uncle!"

Shen Chenli was quite puzzled as to Jiang Hongxi's refusal to accept the official title. He then looked at the person eating cakes and watching them talk.

"What does Wanwan think?"

When Yu Tingwan heard Shen Chenli asking her, she immediately became serious:

"Let me ask you, do you know that your achievements are greater than your master's?"

Hearing the words 'greater achievements than his master', Shen Chenli relaxed his brows as if he understood something.

"So that's what's going on. My eldest and second uncles are really worrying too much. Do you think I will think that you are too successful to be a threat to the emperor? I don't think I am the kind of person who is intolerant. If I can't even let my meritorious officials retire, then I am a failure as an emperor!"

Unexpectedly, the two uncles looked at him and shook their heads.

"Your Majesty, this is one aspect. There are other aspects as well. Considering many factors, this position is really not suitable for anyone in the Jiang family!"

Jiang Hongxi's words made Yu Tingwan nod as well.

"That's right. I'm not worried that you will be suspicious of the Jiang family in the future, but the court is not as peaceful as we see now, not to mention that there are still the Xu family's affairs and the iron mine issues to deal with.

I don't know how many officials will be dealt with by then. If you rashly give such an important position to the Jiang family, then the Jiang family will inevitably become the target of public criticism in the end. Apart from these, even the loyal officials in the court will be disappointed in you as the emperor, thinking that you are just appointing people based on personal connections, and they will not have the slightest chance of promotion in the court!"

After hearing what Yu Tingwan said, Shen Chenli looked at them for a long time, and finally shook his head and sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"You don't really think I don't know these things?"

After all, he is an emperor now and was once a prince. He understands the art of balancing the court better than anyone else.

Seeing him like this, Yu Tingwan rolled her eyes in confusion.

"You know? You knew and you still did this? Are you stupid or do you want to make things difficult for the Jiang family?"

"Listen late!"

"Don't talk nonsense when it's late!"

This child is really spoiled. Not only does he speak bluntly, he even curses the emperor directly!

No matter what, Shen Chenli is the emperor now. If he gets angry, Tingwan will be in trouble!

Shen Chenli looked at her helplessly. Is he that kind of person?

Seeing that they didn't understand, Shen Chenli could only look at them and slowly explain.

“You also know about Zuo Xiang’s affairs. Now that he has noticed something, he has not taken any action. Even if we find evidence, he can rely on his years of business operations. Even if he cannot completely get rid of suspicion, he will probably find a way to get rid of the death penalty.

In that case, why not let him do what he wants? Then we can catch him all at once!"
