Chapter 76 Prime Minister
Su Qiyang was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "I obey your order." Rong Yue was in a good mood. He stroked his beard and said, "I will dismiss the court."
The ministers watched helplessly as His Majesty walked briskly, their mouths drooping to the temples. "Your Majesty, could you please restrain yourself a little?"
They still had to shout, "Your Majesty, we respectfully send you off."
After His Majesty disappeared from view, a large group of people gathered in front of Su Qiyang.
"Sir Su, no, Prime Minister Su, you have kept it a secret from us and made us suffer so much!" Someone had tears on his face.
"Lord Su, how do you plan to implement the reform? I have some excellent West Lake Longjing tea. I heard you like to make water shield and sea bass soup. I would like to ask for your advice."
"Master Su..."
"Master Su, I recently got a fluffy iron-eating beast. Does your daughter like iron-eating beasts?"
"Master Su..."
“…”
Rong Jinyu narrowed his eyes slightly. He looked at Su Qiyang who was surrounded by people, and once again hated why he didn't marry Su Zhenzhen, the apple of Su Qiyang's eye.
If their age difference wasn't so huge, he could have married Su Zhenzhen as Princess Jin.
What a pity.
Su Qiyang would not let his precious daughter become someone else's concubine.
Why isn’t the emperor’s trusted and powerful minister his father-in-law?
His cold gaze fell on Rong Jinchen's tall figure wearing a black brocade robe with python patterns. He was really lucky.
The Empress is the legitimate daughter of the Empress, has made outstanding military achievements, was granted the title of Marquis of Langjuxu, married a stunningly beautiful wife, and his father-in-law is the Prime Minister. I'm afraid the Prince's party will be uneasy now.
The family background of the Crown Princess is actually not as good as that of her brother's princess.
Oh.
His gaze slowly shifted to Crown Prince Rong Jinyou, staring at the dragon pattern on the crown prince's apricot-yellow court robe, a mocking smile curling up at the corner of his lips.
When Rong Jinchen saw his father-in-law was surrounded by people, his face was indifferent and expressionless.
He walked up to the side of Crown Prince Rong Jinyou and asked, "Second brother, how were the wild vegetables from last night?" He had reluctantly shared some of them with his second brother.
When Rong Jinyu heard the word "wild vegetables", his face turned dark. He looked at Rong Jinchen with murderous eyes. He pretended not to see it and looked at Rong Jinyou.
Rong Jinyou smiled. He looked at Rong Jinchen and said, "Of course it's good because Achen dug it himself." The person who delivered the wild vegetables to Prince Yan's Mansion was Gu Cheng, so Rong Jinyou knew that these were wild vegetables dug by Rong Jinchen himself.
Besides, news in the palace has always been difficult to keep secret. Since Rong Jinchen asked directly, it doesn’t matter.
The man's slender hands with distinct knuckles played with the auspicious cloud mutton-fat white jade pendant on his waist, his eyes gentle, "Second brother, I dug this with my own hands. Father even said that I am filial."
These words were naturally said for everyone to hear. Everything was done by Rong Jinchen, and His Majesty personally praised him.
Rong Jinyou laughed, "You are showing off to me. Go away, go away, I don't want to see you." Could it be that he didn't understand what Rong Jinchen's intention was?
His son Achen and digging wild vegetables cannot be connected at all, so this can only be Miss Su's idea.
However, he also intentionally or unintentionally pitted Rong Jinyu's faction, which was indirectly helping him. Even though he knew that this was his father's means of checks and balances, there were other faults in not having wild vegetables.
Thinking of this, Rong Jinchen's eyes darkened and he turned and left.
Inside the Weiyang Palace.
The ambergris burning in the white jade incense incense burner with a peony pattern was light and pleasant. The round nanmu wood table was filled with a variety of exquisite breakfast, snacks and fruits, but neither the king nor his minister touched anything.
Su Qiyang looked at Rong Yue silently. The king and his minister looked at each other without saying a word.
After a long pause, Su Qiyang, under the oppressive gaze of His Majesty, gave him a way out. "Your Majesty, why did you switch from that azure-glazed Suan Ni lotus-shaped Boshan incense burner to a white jade flower incense burner? And one in the shape of a peony?" It was a bit of a contrast, not quite fitting with Your Majesty's image as a tough, iron-blooded man. He found a new topic and looked up at Rong Yue.
Rong Yue said nonchalantly: "I knew that you and Chen'er would keep staring at my things. Ziyun, does your little girl like it?" He looked at Su Qiyang with anticipation.
He shuddered subconsciously, and said without thinking: "Your Majesty, the thing my daughter likes is a gift from her father, not a gift from her father." Damn it, Your Majesty's expression is trying to trick him.
"Hey, do you think I'm a monster, Prime Minister Su?" Rong Yue picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, smiling.
Su Qiyang curled his lips helplessly. He also picked up a cup of tea and sipped it lightly without saying anything, but the implication was that Your Majesty is a scumbag.
Not saying anything means acquiescence.
Rong Yue took a spring bamboo shoot, pickled cabbage and ham bun and ate it. "Prime Minister Su, try it. This bun tastes good." He took another one.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Su Qiyang's eyes, and he also picked up his chopsticks, "Thank you, Your Majesty." It's indeed good.
As for the jokes Your Majesty made on him, I wonder if he heard them.
He had guessed that His Majesty would definitely appoint him as the chief minister of the cabinet in order to implement the reform, so it was not surprising.
He and Your Majesty have been king and subject for many years and their friendship is deep.
Your Majesty will not care.
"Ziyun, you need to learn from Zhenzhen. The food I eat with her is much more delicious than the food I eat with you." Rong Yue felt a little uncomfortable. "Your Majesty, I am terrified." Su Qiyang whispered.
His heart is still not as big as his precious daughter's.
"Forget it, Yu Fuhai, pick a few buns and ask Chen'er to give them to Zhenzhen." Rong Yue ignored Su Qiyang's broken eyes. After all, he was the emperor and he was the most powerful.
Do you really think he doesn't know that Su Ziyun has been trying to keep a close watch on his son Chen'er since yesterday evening?
mock up.
Can't he cure you?
Reforms are naturally necessary.
If his son Chen wants to meet his future wife, he must help as his father.
He also wants to have grandchildren.
Xun'er, the prince's son, is three years old this year. He is old enough to go to the study for enlightenment, and he no longer has any grandchildren to play with.
As for the illegitimate children, Rong Yue was very hypocritical. They were not his grandchildren, but the emperor's.
Being reborn as a prince or grandson of an emperor is already a great blessing. You can't ask him to give you love, right?
Su Qiyang pursed his lips and put down his chopsticks, "Your Majesty, you can't do this. I need His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan to assist in the reform. Your Highness is a genius with a noble character. How can he do such trivial things?" His face was full of sighs and hatred.
"Su Ziyun, you, hahahahahaha... if you can't bear to part with your precious daughter, just say it directly. I also can't bear to make my precious son sad." He also imitated Su Qiyang's expression.
Yu Fuhai was discerningly selecting some pastries and cakes and placing them in a lacquered box with a pattern of two orioles and apples, held by the eunuch. He also added some preserved fruits and snacks to a enamel box with a pattern of intertwined lotus and eight treasures.
His Majesty only mentioned a few buns. If he really only took a few buns, then all his years of service as the Imperial Household Steward would have been in vain!
After the emperor and his ministers finished joking and rinsing their mouths, Rong Yue sat upright and said seriously, "Prime Minister Su, how do you think the Great Qin Reform should be implemented?"
At this moment, Prime Minister Su was no longer teasing as before, but very serious.
"Your Majesty, have you made up your mind?" Su Qiyang asked seriously, following the procedure.
