Chapter 324 Let Ye Yibai be the Governor of Jingzhao
"Be an official?" Ye Yibai raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
"Don't want to do it?"
"I've never done it." He has never been an official. Officials have always listened to him. When he was an official, he was asked to listen to others. He really didn't know how to get along with those officials.
Hua Yanxi understood, turned around, raised her arm and patted his shoulder, comforting him: "Don't be afraid, just don't do it if you don't want to do it. We have money anyway."
"Do you think I'm scared?" Ye Yibai raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and said with displeasure: "I just think that being an official is too simple. Tomorrow I will let the old man make me a first-class official.
Dangdang.”
Hua Yanxi sighed: "You can't bite off more than you can chew. Even if you are a prince, you have to work steadily step by step. You see, Ye Juechen also started training from the staff department."
"Is he worthy of comparing with me? I can definitely do much better than him." Ye Yibai snorted coldly.
Damn it, what's going on with this desire to win?
Hua Yanxi shook her head helplessly and said: "After all, he is clearly your father's beloved son. It is understandable that he was given the position of minister in the beginning. You can't reveal your identity now. Climbing too high all of a sudden will attract too much attention."
Ye Yibai didn't say anything else, wiped Hua Yanxi's hair clean and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."
The two of them lay on the bed, and Ye Yibai consciously pulled him into his arms.
Hua Yanxi closed her eyes and said: "I think your father will not mention the side concubine matter for a while. You should find something less for me to do in the future. If there is such a troublesome thing again, you can deal with it yourself. I
I don’t want to waste my time dealing with household matters like this for you.”
Ye Yibai lowered his head to look at Hua Yanxi in his arms, and saw that her little face was tense and serious. He lowered his head and kissed her smooth little face: "You are my wife, shouldn't you handle the family affairs?"
"Then this wife is really frustrated. Can I apply for annulment?"
"No." Ye Yibai said domineeringly.
Hua Yanxi reached out and poked Ye Yibai twice in retaliation on the lower back.
Ye Yibai took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "I think you're not sleepy at all, right?"
Understanding the hint in his words, Hua Yanxi hurriedly said: "Sleepy, I'm so sleepy that I can't even open my eyes. Go to sleep. I've been very tired these days. Don't disturb me."
Ye Yibai threatened: "Give you a chance. I will count dozens. If you haven't fallen asleep yet, I will do something else."
Hua Yanxi quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Her eyelashes trembled slightly because they were tightly closed, revealing her panic.
Ye Yibai secretly smiled, this trick worked really well, he hugged his heart and closed his eyes with satisfaction.
The next day, the two of them were called to the imperial study room.
In the imperial study room, several officials and Ye Juechen were there, and they looked like they were discussing important matters.
Except for Ye Juechen, who had no expression on his face, the faces of the other people were not very pretty.
Hua Yanxi was surprised, did they come at the wrong time?
But when the palace officials came to summon them, they told them to come over in a hurry, as if they would miss something if they were slow.
Soon, Hua Yanxi had the answer.
They had just finished the ceremony when an official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. This is unprecedented in our country. Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Your Majesty, think twice." Several officials responded in unison.
The emperor's face was solemn: "I have already said this in court, and there is no need to discuss it further."
"Your Majesty, it is understandable for you to support Mr. Yang. If you feel that no one is suitable for the position of Yin of Jingzhao Palace, you can let Mr. Yang take over temporarily. The fifth prince has never been in officialdom. It is really inappropriate for him to sit in this position all of a sudden.
It's appropriate." The official said earnestly.
"Improper or inappropriate, you have been talking about this from the court to the royal study. If you don't find it annoying, I will be tired of hearing it." The emperor said coldly: "I am the king of a country, and you all need to be assigned an official position.
Point your fingers to decide whether this world is mine or yours!"
These words were so serious that several officials knelt down on the ground. Although they were frightened, they did not surrender.
Only then did Hua Yanxi understand that the emperor had been thinking about it all night yesterday and was planning to make Ye Yibai the governor of Jingzhao.
The position of the governor of Jingzhao is very important. It not only protects and governs the capital, but also has the responsibility of supervising all officials.
Jing Zhaoyin is not bound by the hierarchical appeals. In cases where the evidence is proven to be solid, the criminals can be sentenced to death in court without going through a joint trial by the three judicial courts.
Below the minister, above the minister, his rank is higher than that of Ye Juechen.
The capital city is the capital of Chu. Jingzhao Fuyin is equivalent to the current mayor, or the mayor of the city. His position should not be underestimated. It is such a position from the beginning, and it is still allowed to be held by a fool known to the world. Who can bear this?
Come on.
Is the emperor not planning to hide his preference? Is he planning to express all his fatherly love for the past eighteen years?
No wonder it was opposed by hundreds of officials.
However, it was not her turn to object in this matter. She was just a princess with no real power, and she was still a woman. If she dared to stand up and raise some opinions, wouldn't these officials be even more hesitant?
So, Hua Yanxi stood there, just like a vase.
But she wanted to be clean, but there were always people who didn't want her to be clean. Seeing that the emperor still had no change of mind, the official who was kneeling on the ground looked at her directly: "Fifth prince concubine, the emperor wants the fifth prince to be the governor of Jingzhao. What do you think?
"
Hua Yanxi, whose name was called, looked at the official as if he were a fool.
Is this a case of emergency medical treatment? Are you planning to find her to persuade the emperor to change his mind?
Do you expect her to feel that the matter is serious and take the initiative to ask the emperor to take back his orders?
She just disturbed the emperor's appointment of a concubine to Ye Yibai yesterday, and today she is going to let her disturb the path paved by the emperor for her son?
Is she so brave that she dares to challenge authority again and again?
She dared to push four, five, and six, but the emperor sitting on the high seat seemed to have found an ally: "Fifth prince, tell me your opinion."
Her opinion, can she not have an opinion?
Seeing several pairs of eyes looking at her at the same time, all waiting for her to make up her mind, Hua Yanxi felt ashamed.
She is a woman. Don't these people usually believe that women are useless and women should not be involved in politics? Now they came to ask her what she thought. She was flattered and couldn't describe her feelings.
Hua Yanxi could only say: "Father, gentlemen, I don't even understand what you are talking about."
She was pretending to be a novice here, but Ye Juechen on the side explained kindly: "The governor of Jingzhao found out that the Lin family colluded with many officials to enrich their own pockets. The evidence is conclusive. Now their home has been ransacked and imprisoned. My father wants to reward Jingzhao."
The Yin of Zhaofu appointed him as Minister, but there is a vacancy in the post of Jingzhao. My father wants the fifth brother to fill the vacancy. What do you think of the fifth sister-in-law?"
