This admiral is really bold. This proposal is really timely. It is rare that the whole court is in turmoil now. Then this nostalgic party came out and then several others came out.
"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"
The admiral appeared quite calm, yet despite his age, he seemed somewhat treacherous. Zhao Xin simply glanced at him, then withdrew his expression and coughed twice.
"It's fine if you submit a memorial to me, but what do you mean by posting a notice down there? Are you planning to disobey me?"
The admiral gritted his teeth, his graying beard puffing up, looking particularly angry. The old man was already leaning on a cane, and now he coughed twice, stomping the cane even louder.
"Your Majesty, these are all the inheritances left by our ancestors. Your Majesty, if you change them at will, wouldn't that mean you are dissatisfied with the late emperor, the Qing Dynasty, and all the people!"
Look at these words, it’s like a huge hat being put on Zhao Xin’s head!
"Go on."
Zhao Xin was neither angry nor annoyed, but he looked particularly sarcastic, with suppressed anger in his expression. His men held the memorial in their hands, waiting to see what fearless words the old man below would utter!
The admiral immediately knelt down.
Crackling——
The crutch was thrown far away.
The admiral's eyes were wide open, and he looked extremely sad. His fingers were trembling, and he was extremely angry.
"Think about how much effort the late emperor and our ancestors put into developing the Great Qin we have today. You're just changing it to show some respect to the late emperor!"
“…”
"Also, I still remember the words of the late emperor. He spent almost his entire life making the Great Qin Dynasty a bright and prosperous place. Your Majesty, do you really want the Great Qin Dynasty to fall into your hands?"
Zhao Xin took a deep breath, then smashed the blue and white porcelain next to him in frustration, and the memorial flew out.
With a loud crackling sound, the blue and white porcelain bottle was shattered into pieces, and it looked like only debris was left on the ground.
"I don't need you to say that I want to do this for the Great Qin. I am not a fool!"
The admiral took something out of his pocket tremblingly.
"I originally thought that the previous minister's admonition would persuade Your Majesty to change his ways, but I was overthinking it. At that time, Your Majesty was indeed on the right path. Later, that minister passed away due to illness, and I have to shoulder the responsibility of criticizing you on behalf of the late emperor!"
Zhao Xin simply pointed at the door to the naval commander, meaning for him to leave quickly.
"His Majesty--"
He was about to say something, but Zhao Xin threw the brush on the table to the ground with a slap. His wide-eyed look inexplicably made him look like an enraged emperor.
The late emperor was truly a great man who deserved to be mentioned. He was the best candidate for the emperor and knew how to hide his edge. The reason he chose Zhao Xin was because he was extraordinary to the Qin Dynasty, and he was also the most satisfied with Zhao Xin in this generation.
Before this, several people had discussed it together, and he also felt that this emperor was capable. He was really calm and had excellent thinking ability. Moreover, when he was very young, he had already defeated all the opponents in the world in playing chess in the palace.
It is also affectionately called the Hand of God.
"Your Majesty, you were so smart back then. How come you have changed so much now?"
Before, Zhao Xin didn't dare to say a word under the control of others and was controlled by the Queen Mother. In the end, he was tortured to death, but this person said that he was extremely intelligent!
"I told you to get out!"
The admiral, Master Leng, trembling, took out a golden token with the flag of the Great Qin printed on it, then raised it and roared, looking really...
"Your Majesty, this is the token given to me by the late emperor. Your Majesty, I ask you to think carefully!"
Zhao Xin didn't care.
"Someone, get this admiral out of here!"
The group of people arrived as promised, but when they saw the token awarded by the late emperor, they took two steps back. Xiao Chenzi was silent for a moment, and also took two steps back with the group of people.
Are you kidding? This thing was a reward from the late emperor. It is usually given to the person with the greatest merit. This admiral helped a lot in expanding the colony when the late emperor was alive.
Now, before the late emperor died, he specifically instructed him to look after Zhao Xin, the current emperor, and no one dared to touch him after he took out this token.
Once this thing appears, it means that the late emperor has gone out!
"You are disobeying my orders and not even listening to them. How about I send you back downstairs and start learning again?"
The little guy was shaking his fingers, looking like he was possessed by a demon.
"Your Majesty, this token..."
Zhao Xin disagreed.
"What's wrong with the token? What does it have to do with me asking you to drag him out quickly? I'm not letting you execute him. Is it so difficult to drag him out for me?"
"No... Your Majesty, this token..."
Xiao Chenzi became even more anxious, fearing that the emperor would say something even more outrageous.
"This token is——"
Before he could finish his words, the admiral just smiled and continued.
"Alright, Your Majesty, there's no need to listen to that little eunuch. This token was bestowed by the late emperor. Its value is the same as that of the Imperial Sword, but I have kept the Imperial Sword at home!"
Why does it feel like this admiral sounds so happy when he speaks?
"I now believe that reform is indeed not a good idea. Your Majesty, I am not here to stop you, but if reforms are implemented now, it will not only affect the Qin imperial family, but also the common people."
"Then I'd like to hear about the extent of this impact, which has caused the Admiral to worry so much about me."
The admiral took a deep breath and even told the dangers.
Zhao Xin was too lazy to listen to him, and he just waved his hand to stop.
"Master Leng, what do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, I, your humble servant, have nothing to say, but I just want to say that we really can't reform the law now, and after the reform, it really won't..."
"I understand. I will consider it. Can you leave now?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for listening to me. As for the future, I don't care that much. Besides, this is no longer the era of the late emperor."
I just want... to help the Great Qin go further.
Master Leng sighed and shook his head, looking incredibly desolate as he dragged himself along. He then staggered out on crutches, even refusing the guards' help.
"Your Majesty, I understand."
Zhao Xin shook his head, and then sent a sedan chair to take him back home.
"It's not good for the elderly to walk back to the mansion on their own."
