The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1178

The court officials simply did not believe it.

Several people suggested that the matter should be investigated.

But Solomon didn't say a word.

He already understood everything in his heart.

They also knew that Charlie had made all the necessary preparations this time.

He now even has all his military power in Charlie's hands.

He also didn't want his wife and daughters to be threatened in any way again.

He also decided to wait until after this incident before submitting his resignation.

This palace held no meaning for him anymore.

In the imperial court, Charlie's proposal to let Jinxiu succeed to the throne was opposed by many ministers.

A minister came out.

“This matter requires careful consideration. Prince Jinxiu is simply not fit to inherit the throne. The king has never liked him, and everyone knows that. He is utterly unfit to be king.”

After he finished speaking, another minister stepped forward.

"I second that Prince Jinxiu is simply not capable of becoming a ruler."

"The king never thought highly of him when he was alive. Now that the king is dead, he has not left any will, so no one will support him."

Charlie already knew these people would say that.

He had already prepared his retorts.

“Prince Jinxiu certainly lacks the ability to become a true ruler.”

"However, if a prince of the Tang Dynasty were to entrust him with an important mission, what would you say then?"

The ministers were all stunned when they heard what Charles said.

Will the Tang Dynasty really help us?

Among them were ministers who stepped forward to voice their doubts.

Charlie nodded.

"That's right!"

After saying this, he immediately took out the letter personally authorized by Xu Tian.

"You've all seen it, haven't you? The authorization letter that the Prince of Tang owes clearly states that as long as Prince Jinxiu becomes the ruler, they will fully support our Yang Kingdom."

Upon hearing Charles's words, the ministers all lowered their heads.

If they could get the help of the Tang Dynasty, they would be able to successfully obtain protection.

They had wanted to attack the Tang Dynasty for a long time, but now they simply didn't have the strength. If it weren't for Bi Suo, none of them would have had this idea.

Now that their king has died, they are even less likely to have that thought.

For them, the new emperor's ascension to the throne was a very weak start.

At that moment, no one dared to say anything.

For them, the assistance from the Tang Dynasty was their strongest backing.

Prince Jinxiu could receive the protection of the Tang Dynasty, but other princes could not.

For them, all of this is still thanks to the assistance of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if Jinxiu knows nothing and understands nothing.

In truth, these ministers knew perfectly well that this was all Charles's conspiracy.

Charles wanted to seize a prince he could control as the king, so that he could naturally become the dominant figure.

Even so, not a single minister dared to stand up. Now that even Solomon was not saying a word, what could they possibly say?

Everyone could only watch as it all happened; they didn't even dare to say anything behind the scenes.

Each person could only second the motion.

Charlie looked at the ministers, and a smile instantly appeared on his lips.

Jinxiu was very nervous inside.

He was arguably the most incompetent of the princes; he knew nothing about court affairs, or even anything else.

The ministers have reached a consensus to no longer oppose this matter, because they simply do not have the power to do so.

Charlie now holds military power, and no one dares to truly oppose him.
