Zhao Chenhan, who was playing with Prince Yu's son, Li Rui, was speechless: "He can even come up with such a reason? Will His Majesty believe it?"

Prince Yu sighed and said, "Not only did he believe it, he also scolded Xiong Ying. That's not all."

Prince Yu paused and said, "Father wants Zhao Lin to be the Governor-General of Jiangbei."

"What?"

Zhao Mingzhu widened her eyes.

Zhao Chenhan also widened his eyes.

Governor of Jiangbei!

These four words suddenly became extremely unfamiliar at this moment.

They would never have thought that it was connected to Zhao Lin.

Zhao Chenhan's mind was twisted. He suppressed his anger and said, "How could the emperor be so kind to Zhao Lin?"

Prince Yu sighed, "Who knows? However, the officials disagree and will definitely go to see the emperor again tomorrow. It depends on whether the emperor can persist."

Zhao Mingzhu said: "No matter what, Zhao Lin's status in the eyes of the emperor is very special."

Prince Yu nodded and praised Zhao Mingzhu, saying, "You made a good move."

Zhao Mingzhu quickly looked at Zhao Chenhan, but Zhao Chenhan pretended not to understand what she meant and said, "It's getting late. I should go back."

After leaving Prince Yu's Mansion, Zhao Chenhan finally couldn't help but feel angry.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

"You deserve to die early, Emperor!"

"I worked so hard to serve you, but I didn't get any benefit at all. Instead, you let that bastard become the governor!"

"Governor! The next step is to become the Central Minister!"

"What virtue does that bastard have! What virtue does he have!"

Zhao Chenhan was dissatisfied.

Why!

In terms of ability, talent, and everything else, he is better than Zhao Lin.

Why is it that Zhao Lin, a fellow examinee of the same class, is about to become a governor, while he is still copying documents in the Hanlin Academy?

Not convinced!

"Li Chengqian, Shao Yutang, and those old losers, we must ask the emperor to change the appointment of governor tomorrow." Zhao Chenhan prayed.

the next day.

Li Chengqian came again with all the officials.

Cheng** slept until noon.

Zhu Zhongyan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor and all the officials have been waiting for a long time."

Cheng** asked doubtfully, "Did the Northern Di invade?"

Zhu Zhongyan quickly said, "No."

Cheng** asked again: "Is there a rebellion?"

Zhu Zhongyan said: "No."

Cheng** wondered, "Then why are they here? Today isn't the day for court."

Zhu Zhongyan quickly explained, "Didn't His Majesty appoint Zhao Lin as the new Governor-General of Jiangbei yesterday? They disagree and came to persuade His Majesty."

Cheng ** opened his eyes blankly: "I appointed Zhao Lin as the governor of Jiangbei? When did it happen?"

"It was last night, when you were drinking in the Strange Stone Garden."

Zhu Zhongyan recounted what happened yesterday.

Cheng** nodded. "I remember him. Zhao Lin is quite good. He thinks of me all the time and gives me the best things first. He's very suitable to be the Governor of Jiangbei. Why wouldn't they be so reluctant?"

Zhu Zhongyan sighed, "They all want one of their own to be the governor."

Cheng ** was immediately furious: "Absurd! This world belongs to me. Whoever I appoint as governor will be the governor. How dare they come and seize it? Get them out!"

Zhu Zhongyan said quickly: "If you don't go out, they won't leave."

"snort!"

Cheng ** stood up, and Zhu Zhongyan hurried to help him. Cheng ** pushed him away and strode outside without even changing his imperial robes. He angrily said, "If you're not going to do your work, why are you all here with me?"

Li Chengqian stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I ask you to revoke the appointment of Zhao Lin as Governor."

Cheng** sneered, "What if I don't take it back? Are you going to rebel?"

Li Chengqian quickly knelt down: "I dare not."

Crash...

All the ministers knelt down.

Cheng ** pointed at Li Chengqian's nose and cursed: "Don't you dare? I think you dare very much. But he is a governor, how can Zhao Lin not be worthy? You actually come to block me so early in the morning. It doesn't matter whether it is my intention or not. You wake up only when you are satisfied?"

Li Chengqian could only kowtow repeatedly: "I did not mean that. Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Your Majesty, calm down."

The other ministers had no choice but to follow suit.

"I will not calm down. I don't even have the right to appoint a governor, so what does it matter whether I calm down or not?" Cheng** said relentlessly.

Li Chengqian had no choice but to say, "We, your servants, have absolutely no such intention. We simply feel that Zhao Lin is too young and should gain more experience. Of course, if Your Majesty thinks he can do it, then that's fine."

"Of course he can," Cheng ** said. "He's my disciple. I've seen everything he's done in Qingzhou and Jiujiang. He's better than any of you. If it were me, I wouldn't let him be governor. I could just pick any one of you and let Zhao Lin take your place."

Li Chengqian and the others were helpless and could only say, "We are stupid and failed to recognize Zhao Lin's ability. Please punish us, Your Majesty."

Cheng ** shouted: "Humph, I will not punish you. You should carefully consider whether Zhao Lin is qualified to be the governor of Jiangbei. Zhu Zhongyan!"

Zhu Zhongyan hurried forward and said, "I'm here."

"Immediately issue an order to let Zhao Lin take office as soon as possible and accomplish something for the ministers to see. Let them carefully debate whether I have chosen the wrong person." Cheng ** said.

"I obey your command."

Zhu Zhongyan was relieved.

No matter what, the governor Zhao Lin was taken down.

Zhao Lin, Zhao Lin, our family has put so much effort into you. If you can't defeat the Xiong family and make our efforts in vain, we will never forgive you.

Before the ministers could perform, they were scolded and chased out by Cheng **, and they were all listless.

Especially Xiong Ying, who was so angry that she almost gritted her teeth at the thought of seeing her enemy rise to a high position and unable to take revenge.
