But by sheer chance, it became a crucial step in his strategy to win over Su Yu.
Therefore, Emperor Qing was very satisfied with his idea.
He didn't quite agree with what the officials were saying.
As for what happens in this way...
They also used the crown prince and his other sons as pawns in their scheme.
Emperor Qing didn't care about this.
The officials, however, were somewhat puzzled by the emperor's deeper meaning.
It wouldn't be fair to say that we didn't value it.
He was so young, yet he was appointed as the Crown Prince's tutor.
The fact that he was responsible for teaching all the princes in the palace demonstrates the trust placed in him.
But to say that it's important doesn't seem reasonable.
The substantive post he was given, Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, was also a sinecure.
He's not even as good as a junior official in the Ministry of Rites.
Despite their confusion, they dared not voice any objections.
Emperor Qing glanced at Chen Pingping and then spoke again.
"Chen Pingping, in your opinion."
"What do you think of my decision?"
Chen Pingping closed his eyes as he heard Emperor Qing ask him a question.
He opened his cloudy eyes and smiled.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Hearing is a decision, not an idea.
Chen Pingping naturally knew that this was a decision His Majesty had already considered.
He would certainly prefer to agree with 893964, but only 460 can agree.
Of course, this matter itself does not conflict with what Su Yu was thinking.
As for what Your Majesty said about the position of Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
It's just giving Su Yu a real position.
After all, the position of Junior Tutor to the Crown Prince is merely a nominal one.
Giving only this much doesn't seem like we're giving it enough attention.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Pingping still didn't speak.
Emperor Qing glanced at Chen Pingping and smiled.
"really?"
"Do you really think I am wise?"
"Isn't it possible that they're saying this with their mouths but actually laughing at me in their hearts?"
Chen Pingping said respectfully.
"I am terrified."
"I don't dare."
"In my heart, Your Majesty is the most wise and enlightened ruler."
Emperor Qing picked up the ginseng tea and took another sip.
"I heard you visited the Su residence a while ago?"
"Isn't the goal to recruit Su Yu into the Supervisory Council?"
Chen Pingping's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he said with a look of shame.
"I deserve to die."
"Deeply appreciating talent."
"I failed to inform His Majesty in advance."
"Your Majesty deserves to die!"
Emperor Qing's expression remained unchanged as he spoke calmly.
"Oh."
"Then let's take him out and chop him up."
As he spoke, he glanced at Eunuch Hou beside him.
With a wave of his hand, he gestured for Chen Pingping to be pulled out.
Eunuch Hou's heart skipped a beat.
He dared not move.
My palms started sweating with nervousness.
And when Emperor Qing said this...
The ministers in the room also gasped in shock.
Suddenly, he realized that they had been blatantly recruiting Su Yu.
They all deserve to have their homes confiscated and their families exterminated.
After all, the person in front of him was His Majesty's closest confidant.
Even if he secretly recruits Su Yu, he will still die.
However, Lin Xiang and Fan Jian remained calm on the surface.
They knew, however, that Emperor Qing's smiles were sometimes not genuine.
However, an emperor's anger is not necessarily genuine.
Moreover, His Majesty wasn't even feigning anger at the moment.
Just kidding.
However, because of this emperor's joke, he was able to decide the life and death of thousands of people.
The officials, of course, dared not be careless.
It's just that people like Lin Ruofu and Fan Jian, who have been by Emperor Qing's side for a long time, are among them.
Naturally, they know more than others.
Chen Pingping, of course, knew he was safe and sound, and looked relaxed.
Of course, he also knew that His Majesty was targeting him.
Chen Pingping's old skin creased at the corner of his eye, instantly becoming covered with wrinkles.
He looked at Emperor Qing and smiled.
"I deserve to die."
"But it won't necessarily mean they'll die immediately."
"I am still thinking of keeping my old life."
"To serve His Majesty."
At the same time, it was also guaranteed that there would be no next time such a thing as privately currying favor would happen.
Emperor Qing glanced at Chen Pingping and suddenly smiled.
"Old thing."
"I don't want to die."
"Stop talking about death all the time."
Chen Pingping smiled slightly and nodded.
"Your Majesty said so."
"Wei Chen takes orders."
The conversation between the two rulers and their ministers appeared very harmonious and intimate.
The courtiers breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that I'm amazed that Chen Pingping truly enjoys the Emperor's deep trust and is deeply favored by the Emperor.
At the same time, I experienced it for myself.
What does it mean to say that "the heart of a ruler is unfathomable, and the heart of a sage is as deep
In any case, they no longer dare to openly try to win over Su Yu.
Since His Majesty has already decided, Su Yu will be appointed as the Crown Prince's tutor.
Then naturally we should follow Chen Pingping and shout that His Majesty is wise.
It seems that today's meeting...
It seems that no one has succeeded in winning over Su Yu.
The Court of Imperial Sacrifices ended up getting a free advantage.
…Benevolence…
Kyoto, Su Zhai.
Fan Xian's eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed in a flattering tone.
"Sir, are you going to the palace to teach tomorrow?"
"Could you take me to see the palace?"
