Chapter 307 The End of an Era



“…”

The public response was also significant:

"Prime Minister Cai has resigned. Was he harmed by his political enemies? It seems the government is about to change!"

"It feels like an era has just ended. I wonder who will take over next."

"The next person to take the position of Right Prime Minister will definitely be the one who wants to harm Prime Minister Cai."

"Cai Jing is also a controversial figure. I wonder how history books will portray him in the future. A corrupt official? A loyal minister?"

"I heard that Prime Minister Cai is seriously ill because someone is trying to assassinate him!"

“…”

now.

All the civil and military officials were standing in the court hall at this moment.

They have only one topic on the agenda today, which is to elect a right-wing prime minister.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Ying Yuan can agree.

At this moment, they are whispering:

"Half an hour has passed, why hasn't His Majesty arrived yet?"

"I guess His Majesty is also thinking about who to appoint as the Right Prime Minister to command all officials."

"Do you think there is any hope for His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei?"

"How could he possibly have any hope? Is there ever a precedent in this world for a prince to serve as prime minister?"

“…”

Hear these sounds.

The corners of Qin Hui's mouth rose slightly.

He had a premonition that his time was coming.

"Silence! How can loud noises be tolerated in the court?"

As soon as Qin Hui said this.

All the officials knew what was good for them and kept their mouths shut.

Even before he became the Right Prime Minister, he had already shown his arrogance as the head of all officials.

In the Xuanzheng Hall.

Ying Yuan was also wondering who to appoint as prime minister.

At this critical moment, no one dared to disturb him.

This is also true for Daji.

If anyone were to fan the flames in his ear at such a critical moment, he would probably be charged with interfering in politics.

Daji is now determined to become a wise queen and assist Ying Yuan, so things like who to appoint as prime minister are not something she should consider.

She just needs to wait for Ying Yuan to come up with the result and then give him strong support.

However, during the sensitive period, when no one dared to speak, Ying Yuan asked Zhao Gao beside him,

"Who do you think is the most suitable person to take on the role of phaser?"

This frightened him, and he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am an inner court official and am not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Moreover, I don't know anything about the affairs of the court."

"Playing tricks." Ying Yuan cursed, then said to himself: "Cao Cao... Qin Hui... Both of them are good choices."

At this moment, Zhao Gao remembered the silver note Qin Hui had slipped him not long ago and their verbal agreement on sharing hardships, so he summoned up the courage to speak:

"Your Majesty, I have heard that the ministers in the court all believe that Cao Cao is a prince and not suitable for the position of prime minister."

"After all, throughout history, there has never been a precedent for a prince to serve as prime minister!"

Sometimes, you don't need to fan the flames in the emperor's ear, just use a roundabout way to make the emperor make up his mind.

After hearing what Zhao Gao said, if it were a normal emperor, he would definitely not appoint Cao Cao as prime minister.

But, is Ying Yuan normal?

Obviously not normal!

"All officials oppose Cao Cao becoming prime minister?"

"Okay, the more they object, the more I will let Cao Cao take this position."

"This unprecedented event will be created by me!"

As soon as Ying Yuan said this.

Zhao Gao was stunned on the spot.

I wanted to slap myself twice.

Why are you being so shameless!

Why are you talking so much?

Your Majesty, you don't think that I am colluding with foreign officials.

They were afraid that it would affect the country and people of the Qin Dynasty.

So that's why you decided to set that precedent?

Qin Hui, oh Qin Hui, I am so sorry to you!
