The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1047

[Chapter 1047 Being Worshipped as Prime Minister]

Lin Tian just raised his head and saw the emperor winking at Gan Mao and the fast horse censor, and then pursed his lips at Lin Tian.

The meaning was very obvious, but Gan Mao did not feel what the emperor meant. At the same time, Gan Mao thought that the emperor admired him very much and praised him when other officials were discussing, so he scratched his head embarrassedly.

When the emperor saw Gan Mao like this, he knew that Gan Mao did not feel what he meant. So, he turned his eyes to the fast horse censor.

When the fast horse censor saw the emperor like this, he instantly understood what he meant. But when he was about to speak, he was beaten by Lin Tian.

“Your Majesty, I have someone to recommend.”

After hearing Lin Tian’s words, the emperor looked at Lin Tian.

“Oh? Who is the person recommended by Minister Lin? What is his outstanding feature?”

The emperor asked a series of questions.

Lin Tian did not say who it was, but ran to the fast horse censor and pulled the fast horse censor out.

“Ouyang Kuaima, originally from the northern barbarians, is now serving as an imperial censor in the court of Yan. His extraordinary qualities…”

Lin Tian pointed at the imperial censor and spoke slowly. At this point, Lin Tian paused, then walked around the imperial censor and continued.

“If I say that the previous ideas were all from the imperial censor, how would the emperor feel?”

The emperor was stunned when he heard Lin Tian’s words.

“You mean, the idea of sending people to ambush and to protect me was all proposed by the imperial censor?”

Then he asked Lin Tian again.

When Lin Tian heard the emperor’s question, he nodded.

Although he had thought of sending people to ambush and to protect the emperor before, Lin Tian now pushed all the blame on the imperial censor. The

imperial censor was about to defend himself, but Lin Tian held down the imperial censor’s shoulder and stopped him.

At the same time, Lin Tian gently shook his head at the imperial censor.

Although the imperial censor didn’t know what Lin Tian wanted to do, he still believed in Lin Tian without reservation.

This was also the basic principle for him to confirm Lin Tian’s ability and recognize Lin Tian as the boss.

“Your Majesty, I believe in the ability of the Imperial Censor of the Fast Horse. If he has enough status, he will definitely be able to lead the State of Yan out of its current predicament.”

Lin Tian said to the emperor.

Although all the civil and military officials felt that Lin Tian might be bragging, they could not refute him when they saw that he was so sure.

The emperor originally wanted Lin Tian to be the prime minister. The emperor believed that Lin Tian also saw his thoughts, but Lin Tian now recommended the Imperial Censor of the Fast Horse, which really made the emperor confused about what Lin Tian was thinking.

“Okay, let me think about it again. Does anyone else want to recommend? If not, then let’s leave the court.”

The emperor really couldn’t understand what Lin Tian was thinking, so he wanted to ask Lin Tian carefully after leaving the court, so he said to the civil and military officials.

“Your Majesty, I have someone to recommend. He is talented and served as an official in the State of Qin…”

“Your Majesty, I also have someone to recommend…”

“Your Majesty…”

…

maybe he wanted someone who was related to him to get the position of prime minister, who was second only to one person and above ten thousand people in the court. Therefore, many officials were eager to try, and they all spoke at once.

“You should write the memorial, and I will observe the situation on the bed later. Let’s leave the court.”

The emperor was upset by these voices, and said something to the civil and military officials, then stood up and left.

“In addition, Minister Lin, come with me.”

At the same time, the emperor also said something to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian, who was about to turn around and leave, sighed helplessly after hearing the emperor’s words, and then hurriedly followed the emperor.

Lin Tian followed the emperor to the study, and the emperor sat on the main seat in the study, but he did not mean to ask Lin Tian to sit down.

Lin Tian was not polite, and sat down directly on the seat next to him.

“I wonder what the emperor wants to see me for?”

Ming Tian brought a cup of tea, took a sip, and then asked the emperor.

“You are not polite, tell me, why did you recommend the fast horse censor just now?”

The emperor saw Lin Tian like this, and there was nothing he could do. He had already told Lin Tian before that Lin Tian and himself did not need to be polite in private. Therefore, even though Lin Tian was like this now, he had no reason to get angry.

“The Imperial Censor is talented and is the best candidate for the prime minister. It is reasonable for me to recommend him. Why does your majesty ask this?”

Seeing that the emperor did not bring it up, Lin Tian did not tell his thoughts.

“Don’t give me all these fancy words. I asked you why you don’t want to be the prime minister?”

After hearing Lin Tian’s reasons, the emperor understood that if he did not make it clear first, Lin Tian might talk nonsense with you for a whole morning. Therefore, the emperor was concise and clear enough to ask Lin Tian directly.

“I don’t have the talent of the Imperial Censor. Besides, I have always wanted to be an official. This fifth-rank doctor was also forced upon me by you, Your Majesty.”

Lin Tian explained to the emperor.

“The idea was yours. Others may not be able to see it, but you can’t fool me.”

The emperor looked at Lin Tian and said seriously.

“Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the emperor.”

Lin Tian laughed and scratched his head to ease his embarrassment.

“Come here, draft an edict.”

The emperor stopped joking with Lin Tian and shouted to the outside of the door.

Two officials came outside the door, holding the four treasures of the study and the imperial edict in their hands.

The emperor talked to them, waited for a while, and they drafted the imperial edict, and then the emperor handed the imperial edict to Lin Tian. After

Lin Tian took a look, he found that it was telling the world that he became the prime minister of Yan State.

“Your Majesty, aren’t you cheating me? I really don’t want to be the prime minister.”

Lin Tian said to the emperor with a bitter face.

“This is not up to you. This is the result of my discussion with civil and military officials.”

The emperor said to Lin Tian, which made Lin Tian speechless.

Usually, he lied in front of the emperor with his eyes open, and now the emperor is also using a way to deal with him, and he really has no way to deal with it.

“Come here, immediately post the imperial edict and announce to the world that Prime Minister Lin is extremely talented. He has given our Yan Kingdom a new life and will become our Yan Kingdom’s Prime Minister from now on.”

The emperor said to the two officials again.

“Uh… No, Your Majesty, please let me go…”

Lin Tian said to the emperor with a sad face.

However, the emperor ignored Lin Tian.

Looking at the emperor’s determined expression, Lin Tian knew that he, Lin Tian, could not change the emperor’s mind.

“Your Majesty, can I have a discussion with you?”

In this case, Lin Tian could only take a step back and said to the emperor.

“What to discuss? If you don’t want to be the prime minister and persuade me to take back my decision, then let’s forget it.”
