Chapter 1151: successor prime minister

Just seeing that the emperor's three guards didn't move at all, one could tell what the one sitting on the supreme throne was probably thinking about. So the nobles are very worried that they will be cleaned up by others, or that someone will fish in troubled waters and benefit from it.

There are not too many examples of the emperor taking advantage of the opportunity of blood flag revenge among the nobles to clean up people he dislikes. There are countless examples of other nobles taking advantage of the opportunity to play tricks. Most of the time, even if they know about the **** things among the nobles, there is nothing they can do about it, and they can only swallow the bitter consequences.

However, the old emperor had a different idea from most of the nobles. He stood on the high platform of the imperial palace, overlooking the huge burning torch in the imperial capital. He used to think that he could control everyone, so that even if they had a dispute, he could control the scope and intensity of the struggle below a certain level. But this fire made him realize that maybe the more he is suppressed, the bigger the rebound will be.

It was too late to bridge the gap between the two competent subordinates at this time. Sacrifice the **** flag, that is, you will never die, even if the emperor's authority is not qualified to interrupt.

If it is an ordinary little nobleman, if he can't see it, he sends iron guards to push everyone on both sides to the ground, and the matter will be resolved. However, the struggle between the two grand dukes, if the emperor intervened at will, no matter whether he helped one side or both sides, it was likely to turn into a civil war that split the empire, or at least a serious internal friction. Standing by is the only option left.

So as an emperor, the next thing to do is to warn others. Let them not be foolishly sandwiched between two giant beasts and weaken the power of this country. Although the empire is not yet at sunset and there is only one breath left, this kind of meaningless loss can still be avoided.

After making up his mind, the old emperor prepared to return to his bedroom. Before leaving, he looked back again. The Grand Duke's mansion was given to that friend by himself, but now it was burned down by another friend. That inexplicable taste is difficult for others to understand.

At the palace's routine court meeting, apart from the unusual atmosphere caused by the fire last night, the imperial prime minister, the head of the ministers, did not appear in the court.

In the general process of the court meeting, the emperor is like a decoration, no matter what is going on, he does not speak, and everything is presided over by the prime minister. Unless there are matters that are difficult for everyone to resolve, the emperor will be asked to open his mouth. But under the leadership of the powerful prime minister, Duke Lisa, this rarely happens.

Now that the powerful figure is not there, or the ministers who have been favored or cultivated by him, they don't know how to start this court meeting, so they look at each other in blank dismay.

Fortunately, the old emperor was not so old that he couldn't even do things. He directly announced to the ministers: "Duke Lisa stepped down from the post of prime minister yesterday because of the busy affairs of the territory. However, Yu is too old to bear the burden of government affairs, so A successor will be selected to take over the position of prime minister. I hope that all the ministers will help you as in the past to promote the smooth progress of the empire's government affairs."

Those who originally wanted to express their opinions fell silent. The withdrawal of Duke Lisa is undoubtedly an opportunity for the court to reshuffle the cards. Even those who are politically loyal to the grand duke, their long-suppressed or forgotten ambitions will flourish again. Not to mention those people who were already eyeing him, how could it be possible not to take advantage of the old man's withdrawal to seek a chance for himself to be in the top position.

So everyone is waiting, waiting for the old emperor to announce who will be the successor to the position of prime minister before deciding on his next step. This is also a last resort. After all, things are too rushed and changes are too fast, and everyone is caught off guard. If they had more time to operate, they might be able to push a suitable candidate or puppet to the top, which would save everyone a lot of trouble. Now I can only wait passively.

"The person who will take over the post of prime minister is Crown Prince Nawaf Kazarnia."

After being called, the crown prince who was standing on the right back of the old emperor's position came to his father in panic under the surprised eyes of the ministers. He half knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Father, I am beyond my strength, and I am afraid I will not be able to do it."

The old emperor Almin couldn't bear it, and wanted to mock his son. But after all, he is not the kind of personality who is happy to see people look embarrassed, and this is not an occasion for joking, so he can only continue to play the set of fatherly kindness and filial piety, showing a kind expression, and said: "The ruler of the empire will eventually It is up to you to inherit, so there is no way to say that you are not competent. Besides, your performance in the past few times of supervising the country was also remarkable in the mouths of the ministers. Now it is just a continuation of the experience at that time and shouldering more responsibilities. "

Familiar with the character of the emperor's father, the crown prince knew that if he continued to pretend, he might be self-defeating. Therefore, he stepped forward, knelt half-kneeled, and said in a respectful voice: "Sir, please follow my wishes, Father."

At this time, a servant stood up with a tray in his hand. The tray was covered with red velvet cushions, and the brooch handed over by the Lisa Office yesterday was placed. That is the left hand holding the scepter, and the right hand holding the sword are symbols of the pinnacle of civil and military officials of the contemporary empire. It's just that this attendant is still a few steps away from the crown prince, it doesn't look like he is about to hand over the brooch.

Crown Prince Nawaf was thinking about whether he should go forward to get the brooch ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and pin it to his collar. At this time, the old emperor said again: "Although it is the custom in the past to entrust the full power of the imperial government to the prime minister, there is one thing that you must never do, including the court under your leadership. If anyone violates the prohibition, I will Will take it as proof that you cannot command so many civil servants, and consider changing the title of crown prince."

Although the old emperor didn't like to show his bad intentions and look embarrassed. But this blatant warning still made everyone look sideways. Everyone was wondering what the old emperor's red line was. Emperor Almin didn't overwhelm everyone's curiosity, and said directly:

"The enmity between the two grand dukes, you are strictly forbidden to use any form of support or suppression to support or suppress any party. Not only military, but also any political and economic actions are strictly prohibited. Whether it is you, or It's the others in this court who are doing this, it only proves that your leadership is incompetent. Remember one thing, you have many brothers and sisters who are willing to replace you and have the ability to replace you. Of course, you can use the position of prime minister During this period of time, use various means to kill all those who threaten your status. But as long as there is any one left, don’t even think about securing the crown prince’s throne. Unless you have the ability to get rid of me together.”

Faced with such a blunt warning from the old emperor, Crown Prince Nawaf suddenly felt that the scepter brooch that was handed to him, which symbolized the position of prime minister, was a bit hot. His unconfident eyes, tilting his head slightly, swept across the ministers under the court. This weakness, of course, is also seen by these old foxes who have been in the court for a long time, so they have some extra thoughts.

"By the way, I forgot to mention that your younger brothers and sisters, of course, also include the old fourteen. Don't forget him."
