He immediately kowtowed and knelt, saying, "Your Majesty, thank you."
This thank you is to the emperor for still having the respect for his old face.
Ying Yuan personally helped him up, patted Cai Jing on the shoulder, and said earnestly:
"Prime Minister, you must take good care of yourself and live well. I and the Qin Empire both need you."
He now has no idea how strong he is.
After the photo shoot, Cai Jing's face had already turned red.
He almost vomited blood.
Cai Jing, who could have lived for a few more years, would probably have had his life shortened because of this.
After Cai Jing and others left Xuanzheng Hall.
Cao Cao followed beside him, frowning and saying, "Prime Minister, are you really going to support Yu Huatian to take the throne?"
"I advise Your Majesty to build another factory guard, but I am afraid your reputation will be damaged."
Hearing this.
Cai Jing first wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and when Cao Cao was not paying attention, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his flushed face gradually returned to normal.
"But if I don't do this, how will future officials confront the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang in the court?"
"Now let the three of them hold each other back. If any of them becomes weak, you can support the weaker guard."
"In this way, the imperial court can be stabilized."
But how many people can understand his thoughts?
As expected.
The moment Ying Yuan announced the establishment of the Western Factory.
All the officials immediately started cursing Cai Jing behind his back.
They were now staying at the residence of the Left Prime Minister Qin Hui, discussing:
"What exactly is Prime Minister Cai's intention? If there's one more factory guard, will there be any hope for us to survive?"
"Prime Minister Qin, please give me an explanation. What should we do about this?"
"How about we jointly submit a petition asking His Majesty to cancel the decree to establish the Western Factory?"
"Sign a joint letter? You want to force the emperor to abdicate? Your Majesty's prestige is high now. Even if you kill us all, the court will still not be affected in any way!"
"So, what should we do about this?"
“…”
Basically, all the ministers of various ministries have arrived.
Only Lai Junchen is missing.
Although he was no longer the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he was only the Minister of Justice.
But because he had been a commander, he was now being ostracized by the civil service group.
When Lai Junchen heard that he would no longer serve as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he was not disappointed but very happy.
What I thought in my heart was that His Majesty was using the method of demotion to allow me to get ashore safely and live a peaceful life!
To be honest, he killed quite a few people during his tenure as commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
If he leaves office, he will not even be the Minister of Justice, and there will be only one outcome, and that is death.
And Ying Yuan's decision to ask him to resign, in his mind, turned into "the emperor's great grace"...
In official circles, after killing so many people, there are only two ways to get ashore safely.
One is to gradually step down and slowly get through the most critical moment to show the emperor's grace.
The second is to stick to one path and work as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard until death.
now.
At Qin Hui's residence.
He looked at the indignant crowd and said with a smile:
"I don't know who to ask for an explanation now."
"In short, what we need to do most now is to wait."
"Cai Jing...is already old."
In fact, all the ministers of various ministries had ulterior motives.
They all felt that if Cai Jing really resigned as prime minister.
Then the person most likely to serve as the right prime minister is naturally Qin Hui.
Therefore, it is normal to flatter and show your loyalty in advance.
While Qin Hui pretended to be triumphant on the surface, he had actually already thought of all his escape routes behind the scenes.
In the current court.
Who would be the happiest about the establishment of the Western Factory? It would definitely be Yu Huatian.
This is not.
He had just received the news and had not yet had time to prepare for the establishment of the Western Factory, but he went to Cai Jing's residence to express his gratitude.
As a result, he was scolded and sent away by Cai Jing.
If it weren’t for his poor health.
Otherwise, Yu Huatian's legs must be broken.
Who in the court doesn’t know that it was Yu Huatian who was promoted by Cai Jing?
At this critical juncture, coming to Cai Jing's house so blatantly, isn't that stupid?
