Your Majesty, You Can't

Chapter 159 - He is the only Prime Minister of mine

Because he didn't close his eyes the night before, Zhao Yin, who was sitting on the dragon chair and listening to the government at this moment, couldn't help but feel a little tired.After raising his hand and rubbing his dry eyes, the young emperor asked, "What else do you want to report?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something." Among the civil servants, a courtier came out of the class and played with a wat board.

Zhao Yin's dark eyes hidden under the crown narrowed slightly, "I love Qing, but it's okay to say."

"I did some calculations, today is sixteen. Ten days have passed since Lord Helan's burial." The minister looked up at the young emperor hesitantly, then swallowed and asked intermittently, "Prime Minister? The seat... has been vacant for a long time... Your Majesty..."

After all, Zhao Yin had been sitting on the dragon chair for so many years, even if the minister hadn't finished the whole sentence, he could still hear the meaning behind it.

"I won't choose a prime minister again." Zhao Yin replied calmly, but the attitude in his speech was undeniable, "There will always be only one prime minister for me, no matter who it is, no one can shake his position, even if it is me Same."

This was what he personally promised to He Lanzhi back then, even if He Lanzhi is no longer in this world, as long as Zhao Yin is still alive, this promise will not be broken.

"But Your Majesty..."

The minister was about to say something but stopped, but was stopped by Zhao Yin's frowning and slightly shaking his head, and all the words could only be swallowed back into his throat silently.

"My dear friends have also seen that even though there is no prime minister these few months, the court is still in operation. Although my burden has increased, but I am still very young, and it is not a big deal for me to lose a few hours of sleep. "

Zhao Yin once again unceremoniously rejected the other party's remonstrance, "Moreover, the mechanism of the imperial court has been relatively complete. Whether there is a post of prime minister is just more meaningful to me. However, except for He Lan, I don't want to let Others will become my prime ministers again."

The minister still did not give up and asked again, "Minister Gongsun..."

Zhao Yin glanced at Minister Gongsun who was pretending to be calm in the class, and replied calmly: "The same is true for Minister Gongsun."

The courtiers below showed disbelief in their eyes, and some officials looked at the Minister Gongsun whose name was mentioned very obscurely, secretly observing how the Minister Gongsun who was only one step away from the position of prime minister reacted.

The last time Prime Minister Helan was bad-mouthed, predicting that the Helan faction would soon fall, Gongsun, as the official who was most likely to succeed Helan at that time, was undoubtedly the most energetic.No matter what he did, a large number of officials surrounded him. Given the circumstances at the time, it would not be too much to say that he was surrounded by stars.

However, He Lanzhi was not dismissed from the post of prime minister that year, so those who had come to support him before ran to He Lanzhi's side in a blink of an eye.On the contrary, it was his Gongsun who tossed about for a long time and was still in his original position, and was seen as a big joke.

With the death of He Lan this time, the hope of becoming a prime minister rose again, but this time he was mercilessly suppressed by the emperor.

Gongsun still missed the post of prime minister.

He could even hear the sighs and ridicules in the hearts of the officials in the silent hall.

Sima, who was standing behind Gongsun, moved his body slightly, and quietly covered Gongsun who was trembling and clenched his fists, secretly protecting him from those malicious eyes.

"However, Minister Gongsun is upright and has a decent style of work." Zhao Yin changed the subject and looked directly at Gongsun, who was protected by Sima, who was discouraged, "I think Gongsun can temporarily use the power of prime minister to supervise all officials. , I think an honest gentleman like Gongsunqing is still a good candidate."

Hearing the emperor's words, Gongsun raised his head in a daze, thinking that there was something wrong with his hearing, until he was gently pushed by his bamboo horse, he realized that it was not an illusion.

"My humble servant thanked the emperor!"
