"I don't want to be a domineering widow, I want to be an enlightened ruler who complies with the ministers and the world."

Zhao An clenched his fists tightly, and said excitedly as if shouting: "I want to unite all the officials in the court, everyone is of one heart and one mind, and we cannot let people's hearts be separated!"

"Right Prime Minister, you are in charge of the six ministries of the imperial court, and you have checked and assessed the political achievements and moral cultivation of the officials of the six ministries. Could it be that you can't recommend a mature and prudent candidate who can be the best candidate for this position?"

"This..." Prime Minister Zuo Mingyang deliberately hesitated for a moment before slowly answering, "I think the joint recommendation of His Royal Highness Qi Wang and His Highness the Eighth Prince is more fair, and Master Ni Qi, the young minister of Taichang Temple, is worthy of this." Da Ren, it couldn't be more appropriate."

"Furthermore, the imperial court celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival. Didn't Master Ni handle it very well when he assisted His Highness the Eighth Prince who was appointed in a hurry when he was in danger, and temporarily took charge of the Dahonglu Temple?"

"You..." Emperor Zhao An seemed extremely dissatisfied with the unanimous words of the right minister Zuo Mingyang.

Then he turned to look at the queen beside him and asked, "Queen, what do you think?"

"This..." The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the empress was surprised by Emperor Zhao An's concern for a moment.

After hesitating for a while, she said immediately: "Your Majesty, my concubine is a girl."

"I don't have any qualifications to meddle in the great affairs of the court, the appointment and dismissal of important officials."

"Don't embarrass your concubine, okay?"

But Zhao An insisted: "It's okay, I pardon you not guilty, if I want you to say it, you can say it."

"Okay, that concubine has overestimated her own strength and overstepped her limits," the queen finally said after apologizing again.

"The concubine is also very optimistic about Master Ni, and feels that Master Ni's future is limitless and he can take on great responsibilities."

"In ancient times, there was a 12-year-old prime minister Gan Luo, and today there is a young-year-old Honglu Temple Minister Ni Qi and Master Ni, both of which are legendary and beautiful stories through the ages."

"Furthermore, the concubine also heard rumors that Mr. Ni is the orphaned son of Ni Zhong, a virtuous minister of the previous dynasty. Mr. Ni died unjustly, so he should give him some compensation."

"It seems that this Ni Qi boy is really what the people want. There are unanimous voices calling for him to be the Minister of Honglu Temple."

Zhao An was also shocked in his heart, he couldn't believe it: "Is this the fate?"

"Since what the people want, Your Majesty, it's better to let him be fulfilled," said the right minister Zuo Mingyang, who also took advantage of the heat and hurriedly took the opportunity to remonstrate.

"It's just rewarding him with the reputation of a third-rank official, and there are no substantial changes..."

"It's a pity that you are still a majestic prime minister, you have no opinions of your own, and you follow what others say!"

"How did you suddenly become like this? It doesn't match your usual personality?"

Emperor Zhao An glared at Zuo Mingyang, Prime Minister on the right, and said slightly reprimanding: "The reason why I value you and rely on you is because you have your own distinctive personality and characteristics."

"Always at odds with the majority of ordinary people, not rigid, very determined to reform and enterprising."

"Especially if you are not afraid of the powerful, even the current prince and my princes, you can also draw a clear line with them and challenge them, and suppress their youthful and frivolous arrogance and wildly growing ambitions for me."

"This is the place where I value you very much, and it is also the most desirable place."

"If you lose all these advantages, and you become oblivious to all living beings, and become an echo of King Qi and the Eighth Emperor, then why do I need you as a right-hand man?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! This minister made a slip of the tongue!" The right minister Zuo Mingyang was so frightened that he quickly bowed down and said respectfully!
"Queen, even you, a bystander, an outsider, really think so highly of this kid Ni Qi?"

Zhao An finally looked at the queen and said: "Do you know that this kid is a rotten lump in my heart?"

"Why did I transfer him to the capital? I was afraid that he would avenge his father and rebel against the court in the future."

"Because of his father's death, I am really worried about him."

"Returning to Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that there is absolutely no need for Your Majesty to worry about this matter."

The queen said loudly and loudly: "When the concubine was still the concubine of the emperor and the prince, she made friends with her mother and loved her like a sister."

"Because of this relationship, the concubine summoned Master Ni to meet him in private when Master Ni just came to Beijing to take up his post."

"And ask him if there is any resentment left in his heart about his father's unjust death, Your Majesty will know how he will answer..."

The queen seemed to have some concerns, she hesitated to speak!

"Queen, go on!" Zhao An said!
"Yes!" the queen said with a look of panic.

"Master Ni once said that when his father died, he was still in his infancy, and he couldn't remember what happened back then."

"So I have no feeling or deep imprint on the course of the incident."

"Since the matter has passed, let it disappear. He doesn't want to mention the matter of the year again."

"It can be seen from this that Master Ni is a very open-minded person, not a narrow-minded person."

"This?" Zhao An seemed a little confused, but with his suspicions, he naturally wouldn't trust Ni Qi easily!

"Your Majesty, you have fulfilled him. This is your great kindness to him."

After all, Ni Qi belonged to the Queen, and the Queen tried her best to fight for Ni Qi at this time.

"The emperor's grace is mighty, and he must be grateful to your majesty, and will be loyal to you and the court wholeheartedly in the future!"

Right minister Zuo Mingyang looked at the queen from the sidelines, he is now being manipulated by the queen's confidant Alatana Muqixia Gu.

There is no way, everything must be obeyed secretly by the Queen, otherwise the Gu poison will break out, and at least it will cause great suffering, and at the least it will be life-threatening.

Now that he sees that the Queen is asking for the post of Minister of Honglu Temple for Ni Qi, he really doubts that Ni Qi may be controlled by the Queen just like him, that's why it happened!
But he didn't know that Ni Qi volunteered to serve in secret, and was not manipulated by the queen.

Even Alatanamuki, who controls his right-hand minister, is just Ni Qi's personal maid in name only.

"Queen, you really have a heart. I didn't expect you to care so much about this kid surnamed Ni?"

Zhao An looked at the queen sternly and asked, "Could it be that it's really because I had a good relationship with his mother in the past, so I love Wujiwu?"

With Zhao An's suspicious character, he had already sensed the queen's strangeness.

The queen was born as a princess of the Tianmeng Grassland Empire, and Zhao An naturally couldn't trust her in daily life.

But due to the helplessness of the Tianmeng Grassland Empire being too powerful, and under the constant threat of encroachment and plunder by the other party, he had no choice but to bow his head and show his favor to the queen.

Also to please the Tianmeng Grassland Empire, after all, he is still the son-in-law of the Great Khan of the Tianmeng Grassland Empire, and with this level of relationship, he must always let the other party take care and scruples.

"Returning to Your Majesty, it cannot be ruled out that the courtiers and concubines had a good relationship with their mother in the past, and there is a reason for loving Wu Jiwu!"

The queen squatted down and said, "But the more important reason is that the concubine is also very optimistic about Master Ni's future."
