Your Majesty, You Can't

Zhao Yin watched the earnest expressions of the courtiers below, and fell into a dilemma for a while.

Could it be that he really wants to order He Lanzhi to die?

If it was two years ago, he would have issued this edict without hesitation.But now, he was really reluctant to kill He Lanzhi.

Whether it's following his inner instincts or rationally analyzing He Lan's importance to the country, he is unwilling to attack He Lan.

After Zhao Yin closed his eyes and pondered for a while, he finally made up his mind and decided to disappoint these loyal ministers who had followed him for a long time, and said under the eyes of everyone: "I want to save He Lanzhi."

"emperor!!!"

"You don't need to persuade me any more," Zhao Yin said with firmness in his eyes that cannot be refuted, "I want to protect him."

Gongsun, the hottest of the emperor's faction, heard that the monarch he was following would say this, and his eyes and eyebrows were red with anger.

The faces of the remaining courtiers were mixed with disappointment and anger, and they were suddenly taken aback by Gongsun's impulsive behavior. They didn't know how to ease the tense and heavy atmosphere, so they could only look at the high-ranking officials anxiously. The young emperor on the court, I don't know how the other party will punish Gongsun who is disrespectful in front of the imperial court.

Zhao Yin looked at Gongsun's frustrated, sad and indignant back for a long time, until his figure disappeared from sight, and then turned his gaze to the courtiers who were still in the palace.

"I know what you're thinking," Zhao Yin sighed, "The behavior He Lanzhi committed before really made me wish I could give him a white silk to hang himself to apologize. But Zhu Qing must not ignore the past two years. The contribution he has made. In all fairness, I think that the three provinces and six ministries system and the imperial examination system are enough to offset his previous mistakes."

All the courtiers in the hall bowed their heads in silence, quietly thinking about the facts Zhao Yin stated.

Zhao Yin continued to ask, "Zhuqing, have you ever heard that flaws can't hide their strengths?"

"But your majesty," a minister stepped forward and said worriedly, "Prime Minister He Lan's past actions were deviant to usurp power and throne. Isn't your majesty afraid that he will plot a rebellion next time?"

"Now that the military power and the imperial power are all in my hands, He Lanzhi can only be powerless if he wants to plot a rebellion. If I want to kill him, I can kill him at any time, not in a hurry." Zhao Yin replied calmly.

Everyone looked at each other, and after seeing the concessions and compromises in each other's eyes, the ministers cupped their hands and said, "I wait...you understand His Majesty's decision."

Zhao Yin smiled slightly, "Thank you for understanding my decision."

"Your Majesty's words are serious." Minister Sima cupped his hands and said, "What Your Majesty said is indeed reasonable. Besides, since the ministers made up their minds to follow His Majesty, they will definitely respect His Majesty's decision."

"Simaqing, I know that you and Gongsunqing have always been on good terms, and I will trouble you to persuade him for me later, and tell him my thoughts after weighing the pros and cons. I believe he can understand." Zhao Yin said earnestly. road.

"The minister obeys the order."

"Let's end the meeting then."

The 13-year-old emperor watched these loyal ministers leave slowly, and finally let out a long sigh of relief when there was no one around, and his tense nerves seemed to be relieved by this.

Zhao Yin rested on the seat exhaustedly, put the back of his hand on his eyelids and murmured to himself: "I will protect you against all odds, don't let me down... the imperial examination system must be To be successful."
