After the Emperor woke up, he acted in a more orderly manner than before. Although he summoned the left and right ministers and the six ministers for questioning, he only asked about the situation in the court and did not blame them or show any intention of seizing power.

After the questioning, the Emperor praised each of them with a few words, rewarded some things respectively, and said: “My doctor ordered me to rest, and everything in the court remains as usual.”

It can be said that the Emperor will not seize power, everything will continue as usual, everyone was fine with it, but the few adults who were summoned were extremely disturbed.

No emperor doesn’t want to be in power. They would rather the Emperor show off his chariots and horses, declare war on Prince Xiao, and seize power with Prince Xiao than practice guessing games with the Emperor.

“Hey, when will this day end?” The Minister of the Ministry of War has a lot of power in his hands. He was devoted to the emperor at that time, but… …

Prince Xiao’s tactics were too high, he could only bow his head even if he didn’t want to, but when he finally made up his mind to bow his head, the Emperor woke up again.

“If I knew it earlier, I should have resigned that day.” The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was even more troubled. He had helped Prince Xiao replace many of the Emperor’s people in the previous days. Now that the Emperor was awake, what should he do?

“When the immortal gods fight, and the human suffers. What else can we do? Let’s take a step and see.” The Minister of Rites said leisurely.

As a minister with no real power, Minister of Rites has always felt that his life was too suffocating before, but recently?

It was not that easy.

“It’s easy for you to say, how are we going to survive here?” They were people with real power, so they will be the first to stand in line. If they don’t stand in line, they may be the first to be unlucky.

“What are you worried about, that one doesn’t worry about it.” The Minister of Rites pointed at Prime Minister Lin and smiled maliciously.

Thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west side of the river.

“That’s right, the one who should be anxious is not anxious, why should we worry about it.” Seeing someone who was more unlucky than them, they don’t feel like they were very unlucky.

Prime Minister Lin was the first person around the Emperor. If the Emperor wants to deal with the traitors, he must be the first to move by him.

“I don’t know if Prince Xiao will protect him.” Anyway, Prime Minister Lin was Prince Xiao’s father-in-law. If Prince Xiao doesn’t even protect his father-in-law, it would be too chilling.

“Just wait and see, Xiao Wangye won’t let him fall.” Even if it was just for people to see, Prince Xiao will protect Prime Minister Lin Xiang.

That’s right, even if it was just for others to see, Prince Xiao will let him keep his position, but that’s all, he won’t give Prime Minister Lin more help.

“With Prime Minister Lin in control of the Emperor, many things will be easier to handle. The six ministers have already betrayed the emperor. They have no other way to go, they can only go down the dark path.” As a traitor, if they don’t go all the way to the dark, they can only die.

Even if the six ministers expressed their loyalty to the Emperor at this time, the Emperor would not trust them. Even if he had to use them, he would liquidate them one by one in the future. All the elites in the officialdom understand this.

“So you were waiting for this moment. That’s why I’m thinking, why didn’t you replace all the officials from the six ministries, and instead took the trouble to subdue them? So that’s what you’re after.” Hearing Xiao Tianyao’s words, Su Cha exclaimed brilliantly.

Replaced by newcomers, Xiao Tianyao went to the Central Empire, maybe those people would fall to the Emperor, but those old ministers were different, these people have already betrayed the Emperor, and even if they choose to join the Emperor again, the Emperor will not believe them.

One time of betrayal cannot be tolerated a hundred times.

This truth was not only clear to the Emperor but also to the officials who betrayed the Emperor.

“Yes, unless they are stupid, they can only stand on Benwang’s side.” At this time, he doesn’t have to do anything, and the family interest group headed by Prime Minister You will firmly keep his position.

As long as he was here, they can keep their current wealth.

“With this outcome, we don’t have to worry about the East.” Su Cha would be completely relieved.

Their prince has already settled everything, so he was worrying about nothing.

“Well, tomorrow benwang will order you to go to the Northern border and take full responsibility for the transaction with the Northern Country.” It was time for his people to appear in the officialdom.

“Tomorrow? So soon?” Although Su Cha was prepared, Su Cha was still taken aback.

“With the protection of people from Tiancang Pavilion, the Imperial Envoy will come to the capital soon.” Even if he arranges people to suppress them all the way, it can only delay ten and a half months.

“Is Tiancang Pavilion fighting against us again this time?” Recently, they have been against them in almost everything, and every time they suffer, so Su Cha couldn’t help but get angry just thinking about it.

“If they don’t make a big move and fight back, it won’t be Tiancang Pavilion.” Xiao Tianyao didn’t think Shi Yihan did something wrong, if he were Shi Yihan, he would do the same.

“Tiancang Pavilion is too domineering.” If Tiancang Pavilion didn’t get in their way and threatened them, they wouldn’t have done that.

“Benwang is also domineering.” The situation was different, so his point of view on these events was also different. Xiao Tianyao doesn’t think Su Cha was wrong, but there were some things that he can’t just think about from his standpoint.

Although they don’t need to be considerate of others, they can’t be completely self-centered.

Xiao Tianyao knew very well that the Emperor would not seize power, not because he didn’t want to but because he couldn’t. He was afraid that if he seized power, it would cause chaos in the country.

But the fact that the Emperor does seize power does not mean that Xiao Tianyao can continue to be his regent as he does now. He became the regent because the Emperor was unconscious. Now that the Emperor was awake, he naturally wants to return the power to the Emperor.

On the second day, Xiao Tianyao signed the seal, agreeing that Su Cha would go to the North border to organize the Department of Agriculture, and officially sell grain to the Northern Country.

After finishing the official duties that day, Xiao Tianyao said in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs that he would no longer be regent and that all government affairs would be personally approved by the Emperor.

The Emperor woke up, and he should have dealt with government affairs. The ministers did not persuade him, but only praised Prince Xiao for his high integrity and extraordinary bearing.

Xiao Tianyao just smiled and didn’t speak a word, didn’t mention the dragon seal at all. After saying that he would no longer be regent, Xiao Tianyao went into the palace to seek an audience with the Emperor.

“I’m not feeling well, I can see him!” The Emperor naturally knew about Xiao Tianyao’s resignation in public, but he didn’t want to take over government affairs at this time.

In other words, what he wanted was not for Xiao Tianyao “return” the power to him, but to take it back by himself.

What Xiao Tianyao “returned” to him was just an empty shell. Although he had the reputation of being governing the country, he was out of control in many things. What use would he have for such a regime?

What he wanted was to take back the real power from Xiao Tianyao’s hands, Xiao Tianyao’s move was a slap in the face to him.

The Emperor refused to see him, Xiao Tianyao was not angry, he took out a letter, handed it over for the Emperor to see, and repeatedly urged: “The Emperor must personally open it.”

He knew that the Emperor was a smart man, and he will definitely cooperate with him to stage a show of brotherly respect, and then wait for the arrival of the Imperial Envoy of the Central Empire… …
