Chapter 26
Zichen Hall is the place where the emperor listened to politics.

The new emperor returned to the court to listen to the government. Most of the officials in the court were members of Cui's party. Few people cared about this young emperor.

The imperial robes worn by the emperor in court were not bright yellow.

It's the majestic black and vermilion gown.

Wearing a crown on his head, wearing black clothes, and holding a white jade gui, the emperor strode into the Zichen Hall.

The emperor looks like a dragon and a phoenix, not angry but arrogant.

From the first moment I saw him, I couldn't control the fear of surrender in my heart.

Xin Zhao stepped up the steps, flicked his sleeves lightly, and sat on the dragon chair.

All civil and military officials bowed down in unison, and their orderly and loud voices echoed in the majestic and resplendent hall.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Xin Zhao has a serious face, but there is a surge of passion in his heart.

One day, he will truly secure his position as the Supreme Being in the world!

Now, just get started!
Zhao Xin looked at the ministers in the palace with his discerning eyes, his expression turned cold all of a sudden.

The average loyalty to him is less than 30, and Cui Cen, who stands at the top, is even more negative!

On the other hand, Nan Cang was a little better, but he didn't even reach 50.

Nan Cang is only loyal to the country, and in his eyes, the emperor is just a partner.

For partners, the loyalty is naturally not as much as that of subordinates.

In contrast, the one Xin Zhao dislikes the most is Cui Cen!

Xin Zhao said softly, "Everyone is in peace."

Hundreds of officials stand according to their official ranks, with Wen on the left and Wu on the right.

The one on the left is Prime Minister Cui Cen, and the one on the right is Taiwei Nancang.

Xin Zhao's eyes flicked over the officials in the palace, "What's the matter, gentlemen?"

"I'm going to play if there's nothing else to do." He replied neatly, so respectful that he couldn't find a single mistake.

Xin Zhao looked slightly cold, huh, there is nothing to play?
Xin Zhao said coldly: "How is the battle on the front line, whether the people have been affected, how to solve resettlement, etc. Don't these need to be played?"

Is he really a fool who knows nothing about the outside world?
Nowadays, the people of Daqin are living in dire straits, and he who has read the original works knows best.

Although before going to court, Xin Zhao had already expected that the group of ministers who thought Cui Cen was the leader would definitely make some mistakes.

But seeing such a situation now, Xin Zhao was still furious.

"Qi Zuo Your Majesty." A minister came out with a wat and replied, "The Taiwei sent troops to suppress the rebellion, so your Majesty need not worry."

"A small military disaster has little impact. The people of our Great Qin still live and work in peace and contentment, and all parties are peaceful."

Several ministers responded one by one, but Xin Zhao became more and more annoyed.

Everyone is telling him that the world is peaceful through singing and dancing, like a peaceful and prosperous age.

"Your Majesty is worried about state affairs, and the ministers are gratified. With the pillar of the country like Lord Xiang, the court is stable."

Xin Zhao suddenly clenched the armrest with his palm, almost unable to suppress the anger in his heart.

This group of courtiers didn't just disregard him as the emperor? !

Even though he was sitting on the dragon chair, they still flattered Cui Cen without hesitation!Make no secret of Cui Cen's demeanor!

The old god Cui Cen stood on the ground at the first place on the left, with a peaceful expression and a refined temperament, neither humble nor overbearing.

Someone mentioned him at this moment, Cui Cen bowed slightly with a smile on his face, and said:

"With the protection of His Majesty's Dragon Qi, my Great Qin will be in peace and prosperity."

Nan Cang on the right stood out of the way, although it could be seen that Cui's party deliberately tripped up the emperor, but he didn't intend to help the emperor to support the scene.

In the future, this kind of situation will only increase. If the emperor wants to fight Cui Cen, he must adapt to the current situation.

Xin Zhao's face was icy cold, and he almost couldn't help cursing.

The wars of the Seven Kings intensified, floods occurred frequently in the southern provinces, droughts continued in the north, and the people of the world were in dire straits... Are these ministers telling him that there is nothing to do?
Xin Zhao's eyes burned with anger.

But there is fire and nowhere to vent.

Although he has mastered the court, and has the opportunity to listen to the government.

But it's just "listening" on the surface, not much different from before.

Among all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty, almost none of them liked him.

These... are all members of Cui Cen's party.

Xin Zhao stared at Cui Cen, whose loyalty was negative. His eyes were cold and chilling.

Cui Cen could feel the sight from above, but the emperor was sitting high on the dragon chair, and the twelve jade banners hanging from the crown blocked his eyes, so he couldn't see clearly.

He still stood there calmly, even in a somewhat relaxed mood.

In the past few days, although the emperor took advantage of his inattention, he made some tricks.

He even persuaded Nan Cang to marry him and win over the old man.

But agreeing to Nan Cang's conditions does not do much harm to him, just a drop in the bucket.

Even if the emperor came to the court to listen to the government, it was still in his hands.

Besides, he was young and energetic after all, and his desire to take power was too strong.

Cui Cen now treats the emperor like a powerful hunter teasing his prey.

For him to tease and amuse, but don't even try to turn out the palm of your own.

Xin Zhao suppressed his anger, it was just a waste of his energy to get angry at this group of people.

"Since I have established an marriage relationship with the Taiwei, I will make the Taiwei the Grand Master today."

Now, as the emperor, he is in a bind.

If Cui Cen doesn't fall for a day, he can't promote or demote officials as he pleases.

But Xin Zhao still has the ability to add some honorary titles.

Although he doesn't have any real power, this can be regarded as Zhao Xin's move to show his favor to the future father-in-law.

Of course, he also stabbed the old man Cui Cen along the way.

Zhao Xin said again: "General Zhenbei fought against the rebels on the front line, as a commendation, I hereby confer the title of Wei Wuhou on him."

General Zhenbei is Nan Cang's eldest son, Nan Wuwei.

Naturally, these Nancang also knew the reason for the emperor's bestowal, so they expressed their gratitude calmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, old minister."

The emperor married the Nan family, and everyone knew that they were grasshoppers on the same boat.

But seeing the little emperor blatantly showing closeness to the Nan family and completely ignoring Cui Cen, the prime minister, some ministers felt uncomfortable.

Besides, they would never miss an opportunity to remonstrate with the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is not an appropriate move." A minister said, "In terms of merit, no one in the Manchu Dynasty can compare to Prime Minister Cui.

The prime minister has always devoted himself to Daqin and worked hard.

Now Your Majesty is wantonly conferring on the Nan Family, but ignoring the Prime Minister. This move really chills the Prime Minister and us. "

Xin Zhao smiled, "The prime minister has worked hard these years, under the prime minister's governance, although the seven kings have rebelled one after another, disasters have occurred in all directions, and disaster relief has failed many times.

But according to Aiqing's words, the prime minister really worked hard for this.

The queen mother, who is worried about the state affairs of the world, came to me yesterday and said that in the future, she will devote herself to worshiping Buddha in Yong'an Palace and praying for the Great Qin Kingdom.

Every time I think of the fact that since I ascended the throne, I have worked hard for the prime minister and the queen mother to work on state affairs, I really feel guilty in my heart. "

The expression on Prime Minister Cui's face cracked for a moment.
