[Prime Minister Wang was the second prime minister of Daye, and he served for nearly ten years.]
[Congratulations to our Prime Minister Wang, the second of Daye and the last in history. ]
All the civil and military officials in the court: !!!
This shocking news made everyone's heads buzzing early in the morning.
Is Wang Xianggong the last prime minister?
Does that mean there will be no prime minister in the future?
This, this cannot be done without a prime minister!
This is a prime minister position that has been passed down for thousands of years.
Before the old emperor could speak, many people began to get restless.
The most devastated among them was the Minister of Works.
He has worked diligently and angry for most of his life, and now you tell him that there is no prime minister anymore!
This was the goal he had been striving for all his life, but in the end it was gone.
No, he doesn't accept it!
The Minister of Works was about to stand up with his imperial tablet in hand.
When the old emperor saw this, he immediately glared at the man back.
He stood up before he even said anything.
"My dear ministers, there is an important matter today. Prime Minister Wang will retire and return home soon. I have thought hard and feel that this prime minister does not need to continue to exist."
[I understand, I understand. Abolish the prime minister and divide power among six ministries! I understand it so well! Hahahaha, my history knowledge from junior high and high school is still just a little bit.]
The old emperor's next sentence was forced back by Shen Zhiyi.
He really thought so. He wanted to divide the power into six departments and then appoint a prime minister.
The previous prime minister and the current prime minister Wang are loyal, but if the prime minister in the future becomes powerful and affects the imperial power, that would not be a good thing.
There are countless similar incidents in history, and the old emperor has been thinking about abolishing the prime minister for a long time.
[Once the prime minister is abolished, the power of the emperor and the power of the prime minister will be combined, and all power will be concentrated in one person. This will depend on the genes of the Zhou family. If a tyrant emperor emerges, the people will have a hard time.]
The old emperor scoffed at this.
There have been prime ministers in so many dynasties, but the lives of ordinary people have never been easy.
[Tsk tsk tsk, I thought so. I should have guessed it earlier. Normally, the prime minister should assist the old emperor in handling state affairs. However, over the years, the old emperor regarded Prime Minister Wang as old and didn’t give him much to do. Basically, the old emperor did everything by himself. No wonder he went to bed so late every day and even implicated me!!!]
Shen Zhiyi let out a mournful cry.
[I was wondering why all those messy memorials were placed on your desk. It turns out you didn't even ask Prime Minister Wang to take a look at them first.]
[Aren’t you tired? Aren’t you tired?]
Why are you so tired?
The old emperor stroked his beard with satisfaction. Ever since he handed over all the memorials submitted by some officials who liked to write nonsense to Shen Zhiyi, he felt that he was quite relaxed now.
Well, actually it’s still a bit much.
[Old Emperor, don’t you think that two people are not enough to review memorials? ]
[Oh no, it's not right for a secretary like me to review memorials. Let me think, I reviewed a lunatic yesterday. Who was that?]
Shen Zhiyi turned the surveillance video to a memorial approved yesterday that made her roll her eyes.
[That’s it, that’s it. The Left Junior Secretary of the Taichang Temple said that he had five daughters at home and hoped that the old emperor would help his daughters choose a partner. He also said that he thought the Zhonglang Jiang of Qianwuwei was very good.]
“Puff.”
Someone in the hall couldn't help but laugh out loud, looked silently at Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
Awesome, really awesome.
The Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple blushed. Why didn't anyone tell him that Shen Zhiyi would review memorials? If he had known, he would not have written this.
But he really wants His Majesty to grant marriages to his daughters!!!
"I, I'm in trouble!"
He really has difficulties, you have to believe him.
The old emperor didn't expect this moment, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching.
[The more interesting thing is that the General of the Cavalry also wrote a memorial, and it was written by the Minister of the Dali Temple.]
All the civil and military officials in the hall looked at the two with subtle eyes.
[Although the general of the cavalry may look big and strong, he is actually very warm and considerate. ]
Many civil and military officials in the court nodded frequently.
You can see it. You can see it.
That diaper full of love is so memorable.
[He found out that the Zhonglang Jiang of Qianwuwei seemed to be busy looking for a wife for himself recently, which made the general very happy. You know, he actually cares about the marriage of his junior. After all, it is rare in Daye for someone to be unmarried at the age of twenty.]
[So the General of Cavalry meant that the old emperor should do a favor and find a wife for the General of the Household.]
The left Shaoqing of Taichang Temple's eyes lit up and he looked straight at the old emperor.
The old emperor felt a little uneasy being looked at.
You know, it is known throughout the capital that Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple has four single women in his family. This is a rare thing.
Many matchmakers went to the residence of Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple, but in the end no marriage was arranged.
When colleagues asked about Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, Zuo Shaoqing said nothing. Over time, everyone thought that it was probably because Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple's daughter was too ugly and she dared not show her daughter to others.
The old emperor thought so too.
Zhonglang still treated him as his own child, and he couldn't just let him marry an ugly girl.
Not right.
So the old emperor glanced at the bright eyes of Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple without leaving a trace.
The Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple was torn.
"I really have my reasons!"
[Xiao Facai is rich. One wants to marry off his daughter, and the other wants to marry off a wife. The one marrying off his daughter even named the General of the Central Army. Logically, they should just get married together, but it’s not possible. The wife of the Left Junior Minister of the Ministry of Rites doesn’t agree at all.]
Yes, yes, yes!
Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple nodded vigorously.
He also wanted to marry his daughter off, but his wife didn't agree with the man who came to him and the one he liked.
The whole court: What? You won't marry your daughter off if your wife doesn't agree? What kind of family is this?
The Minister of Rites' eyes lit up again and again.
He knew that he couldn't be the only one in the court who was afraid of his wife!
Only a good man is afraid of his wife.
[The reasons given by the wife of Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple are usually that the son of this family is not well behaved, or the son of that family is causing unrest in the family. In short, she is very picky.]
[It was rare to meet someone with good character, and the Left Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple was very happy. However, his wife began to find fault with him, saying that he was not good-looking and that his grandchildren would not be good-looking either.]
Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple nodded vigorously.
Yes, yes, it’s not easy for him. He really wants to marry his daughter off, but he dares not disobey his wife. You know, he was the one who let her down in the beginning.
So he thought about asking the old emperor to issue an edict, so that even if his wife was unwilling, the emperor would have no choice but to accept the decision.
[Tsk tsk tsk, Taichang Temple Zuo Shaoqing has not thought it through. All these things he said are clearly excuses! ]
