Nowadays, the prince’s reputation among the people has been rising all the way, and the prince Taishi is both relieved and ashamed.
He sighed: “Your Highness, it is the minister who is foolish, and he actually underestimated your ability.”
Luo Qingshan: “Teacher, you are just lucky, you can’t talk about your skills. Don’t take this little thing to heart. How did you teach me before, it will be the same in the future.”
This made the prince Taishi quite ironed in his heart, and his old man smiled.
“Your Royal Highness has made a great contribution this time, and there will inevitably be rewards. Your Royal Highness, go to the palace. The emperor and the ministers are waiting for you in the council hall.”
Hearing this, Luo Qingshan remembered what his father said before he left. He said that if the prince could ask for rain, he would definitely go out of the palace to greet him when the prince returned to the palace.
But at this moment, the father was still sitting in the council hall, and he must have forgotten his agreement with his son a long time ago.
If it were the case that before, his father had promised to go out of the palace to pick him up but did not come, he would probably be very disappointed.
But now, his heart is extremely calm.
Along the way, he thought a lot.
Since affection cannot coexist with power, and since these two things are cold and ruthless to him, why doesn’t he abandon the useless affection and seize the power that is more beneficial to him?
Bidding farewell to the teacher, Luo Qinghan boarded the carriage again.
The convoy continued in the direction of the palace.
The carriage drove into the palace gate, passed through the heavy palace, and finally stopped in front of the Council hall. The prince got out of the car and walked slowly up the steps.
When he used to go this way, his mood was always numb, but now he has a completely different feeling from before.
He looked up at the Council Hall at the end of the front, as if he had heard the voice of the mountains when all the people bowed down, and he seemed to hear Xiao Xi’s voice.
She is saying
You will definitely be a good emperor in the future.
They all have high hopes for him.
These high hopes are a reliable backing and a force to push him forward.
The steps he took out became more and more determined.
The throne of this prince is already his, not only the throne of the prince, but also the throne of the emperor, will be his.
No matter who comes to grab it, he will not make any more concessions!
Luo Qingshan walked into the Council hall with a firm step.
In the council chamber, the cabinet ministers and princes looked back at him one after another.
Luo Qingshan didn’t seem to see the various glances projected on him, and moved forward steadily, saluting the man sitting on a high position directly in front of him.
“Er Chen is lucky not to lose his life. He has asked for rain for the four counties in the south, and the drought has finally been lifted!”
The emperor’s mood at this time was extremely complicated.
What he dared not do, but let the prince do it.
Does this prove that he is really old?
He smiled and said, “The prince, get up quickly. The reason why the four southern counties were able to relieve the drought this time is all your credit. I must reward you greatly. Tell me, what do you want?”
Luo Qinghan said unhurriedly: “Erchen has no worries about food and clothing, and there is nothing he wants. If his father must reward something, please ask his father to hand over the ministry of Officials or the Ministry of Punishment to Erchen. When Erchen went south this time, he met many local officials and saw the shady officialdom that he had never touched before. Erchen wanted to eliminate the officialdom culture so that his father could better govern the country.”
The emperor said with relief: “You are really grown up, and you know that you have shared your worries for me. I have planned this for a long time. Even if you don’t say it, I will assign you an errand. Since you take the initiative to open your mouth, then I will leave the criminal department to you to take care of today. When you get started, I will consider handing over the official department to you.”
Luo Qinghan paused to thank him.
“Erchen must do his best to live up to the emperor’s favour!”
