Chapter 608 If I don’t give it to you, you are not allowed to ask for it!
Chapter 608 If I don’t give it to you, you are not allowed to ask for it!
Cai Jing looked at Emperor Dajing with disbelief.
The merits outweigh the faults?
Is this serious!?
He also thought that based on his merits this time, Emperor Dajing would make him the prime minister!
But now...
"Your humble servant! Thank you for your grace!"
After a brief moment of distraction, Jiang Chen respectfully saluted to Emperor Dajing, accepted the order and expressed his gratitude!
But Cai Jing couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Your Majesty! I have something to say!"
"Your Majesty! I, your humble servant, also have something to say!"
"Your Majesty! Aren't you being too partial?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. The credit for Guanzhong is equally shared by Lord Jiang and Lord Cai. Lord Jiang was promoted to a higher position! How come Lord Cai's merits and demerits are offset?!"
"Your Majesty, you are being unfair. I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of my subjects!"
"His Majesty……"
Before Cai Jing opened his mouth, the officials under him stood up one after another.
Only if Cai Jing is promoted will their position become more stable!
Now, Emperor Dajing is obviously suppressing Cai Jing. How can these civil officials tolerate this?
"presumptuous!"
"This is my imperial decree! Are you going to disobey it?!"
When Emperor Dajing saw those civil officials stand up, his face instantly turned cold!
The reason he did this was to strike a blow against Cai Jing's arrogance!
Now that Cai Jing's subordinates have stood up to speak for Cai Jing, he feels that his actions are necessary!
"Your Majesty! I cannot accept your way of doing things!"
"Yes! I refuse to accept this!"
"Your Majesty, please reconsider!"
"I don't accept it!"
"His Majesty……"
When the ministers heard what Emperor Dajing said, they did not keep quiet, but continued to speak!
"How dare you! Are you going to rebel?!"
"Somebody come!"
"His Majesty!"
Following an order from Emperor Dajing, the guards guarding the door immediately rushed in!
……
"Come on! Take away all these traitors who disobey my will and give them ten heavy beatings!"
Emperor Dajing roared angrily!
"According to the order!"
When the imperial guards heard what Emperor Dajing said, they were ready to take action immediately!
But at this time, Cai Jing stood up!
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Those ministers were too excited for a moment, so they lost their sense of proportion!"
"Your Majesty is clear about rewards and punishments, and I have no objection!"
"Wei Chen accepts the order!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive these ministers!"
Cai Jing said this and bowed respectfully to Emperor Dajing!
"Humph! Lord Cai is still sensible!"
Emperor Dajing snorted coldly, then looked at the ministers!
"I will give you one more chance. What do you think of my approach?!"
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty is wise!"
Those ministers looked at the murderous eyes of Emperor Dajing and finally chose to surrender!
Because they know that now... they have no other choice!
"Hmph! You guys are wise!"
Emperor Dajing snorted coldly, then announced the adjournment of the court!
But after the court was dismissed, all the civil and military officials stayed where they were and did not leave!
This is mainly because of the situation in the court today, which is really difficult for them to understand!
Could it be that Emperor Dajing really wants to pay Cai Jing more! ?
This...if it is true, then the court will be changed drastically!
"Oh! Lord Jiang, it's great that you're here! His Majesty summons you to the Imperial Study!"
Just then, Koizumi came out.
"Um!?"
When everyone heard what Xiaoquanzi said, they all looked at Jiang Chen in shock!
"Your humble servant... obeys your order."
After hearing what Xiaoquanzi said, Jiang Chen followed Xiaoquanzi to the imperial study under everyone's gaze.
……
After Jiang Chen left, the officials began to discuss.
"Your Majesty summoned Lord Jiang again. Could it be that... he wants to tell you something in private?"
"Alas! Lord Jiang is now at the peak of his career. We cannot compare to him!"
"Haha, who said it wasn't!"
"Lord Jiang, you are so lucky!"
The civil servants began to speak in a sarcastic tone.
If this had happened in the past, those military generals would have been extremely angry when they heard the civil officials speak like this!
They might even fight within this dynasty!
But now, they left without saying a word!
This scene stunned the civil officials!
"What happened to those generals?"
"Something's wrong! Why aren't they protecting Jiang Chen today?"
"That's right!"
"What's going on?"
Everyone was extremely confused.
Luo Ye, who was walking at the end, was extremely angry when he saw this situation!
He knew that this was all caused by General Feng!
This General Feng really deserves to die!
On the other hand, Jiang Chen didn't know what happened in the court after he left.
He had already arrived at the imperial study.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
After Jiang Chen saw Emperor Dajing, he saluted respectfully.
"You don't have to be so polite, Mr. Jiang, please get up!"
Without waiting for Jiang Chen to kneel down, Emperor Dajing helped Jiang Chen up.
"Your Majesty, I am terrified..." Jiang Chen saw Emperor Dajing personally supporting him and hurriedly pretended to be terrified.
"You don't have to do this, my dear Jiang. You are now a meritorious official of Dajing. If you hadn't made enough contributions, I would have given you the privilege of meeting the emperor without bowing!"
Emperor Dajing said with a smile on his face.
……
"Your Majesty, you must not do this. I...I dare not!" Jiang Chen became even more nervous when he heard what Emperor Dajing said!
What on earth is the Emperor Dajing going to do today! ?
Not only did he attack Cai Jing, he also specially called him to the imperial study...
"My dear Jiang, what is your relationship with Cai Jing?" Emperor Dajing suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty, Lord Cai Jing...I'm afraid he wants to kill me..." Jiang Chen said with a wry smile.
"Haha, don't worry, Lord Jiang, as long as I'm here, no one in Dajing dares to touch you!"
"I'm afraid you are confused about my attitude towards Cai Jing today?" Emperor Dajing said with a faint smile.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Jiang Chen said respectfully.
"Haha, actually I was planning to reward Cai Jing with some gold, silver and jewelry!"
"But, I received a memorial yesterday!"
"Do you know what is written in this memorial?!"
"Some officials actually want me to appoint Cai Jing as prime minister!"
"Haha, Cai Jing is really crazy about becoming the prime minister!"
"I can appoint anyone I want as the Prime Minister of Dajing!"
"If I don't want it, no one can take it away!"
Emperor Dajing said coldly!
"Your Majesty is wise!"
After Jiang Chen heard what Emperor Dajing said, he finally understood why Emperor Dajing was acting abnormally!
It turns out that he was just very angry!
The same goes for Cai Jing. If he wants to be the prime minister, he has to wait until Emperor Dajing is happy!
He is always trying to urge Emperor Dajing, isn't this courting death...
and many more!
Cai Jing shouldn’t be that stupid!
Could it be that Cai Jing didn't do this?
Who could that be?
Eunuch Zhang, or Dongfang Wan'er, or... General Feng! ?
When Jiang Chen thought of this, his eyes changed involuntarily!
