The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1048

[Chapter 1048 Promise]

After hearing Lin Tian’s words, the emperor immediately blocked Lin Tian’s way out.

“No, I just want to discuss something else with the emperor.”

Lin Tian thought of a way, so he said to the emperor.

“What is it? Tell me first.”

The emperor was cheated by Lin Tian more than once, so he seemed very cautious.

“I can make Yan richer than Qin, but I have a condition. After I let the people of Yan live a rich life, I will resign as prime minister.

As long as the emperor can agree to my request, I will temporarily take over the position of prime minister.”

Lin Tian said to the emperor.

The emperor thought carefully. If Lin Tian wanted to make Yan rich, then it would not be impossible to agree to him. Anyway, when he resigned as prime minister, wouldn’t it be his own decision? As long as he didn’t agree, could he, Lin Tian, still run away?

Thinking of this, the emperor smiled, and then said to Lin Tian: “Okay, as long as you can make the people of Yan live a life of plenty, I will agree to your request. However, I will agree to your request only after seeing your results.”

…

Lin Tian walked out of the palace with a bitter face. When he was walking on the road, the soldiers standing guard on the roadside looked at him as if they were in awe.

Although Lin Tian was very curious, he was not affected by this.

He returned home and just walked into the house when the housekeeper came up to him.

“Master, you are now the prime minister of Yan.”

The housekeeper said to Lin Tian with a happy face.

After hearing the housekeeper’s words, Lin Tian finally understood why he felt so many strange eyes along the way.

“Is the efficiency of officials doing things so fast now?”

Lin Tian underestimated. What he didn’t know was that under the special request of the emperor, the efficiency of officials’ work was also doubled. Posting the imperial edict and publicity, the fact that Lin Tian became the prime minister is now known to the whole city.

“Master, what did you say?”

After hearing Lin Tian’s muttering, the housekeeper asked curiously.

“Nothing.”

Lin Tian rubbed his swollen head, and then walked inside.

After returning from the palace, Lin Tian was thinking about how to make Yan State rich in his room.

Although he had a lot of modern technology, he found that there was no way to make a country rich in time.

In the backward era of Yan State, the people’s feudal thinking, it was harder than climbing to the sky to make them rich in a short time.

Therefore, Lin Tian thought of many ways in the morning, but none of them was applicable.

It was lunch time, and Lin Tian still hadn’t thought of a specific plan.

“Master, let’s eat first.”

The housekeeper came in, brought the prepared food, and put it in Lin Tian’s room.

After eating, Lin Tian didn’t want to continue thinking about this headache, so he simply didn’t think about it and wanted to go out for a walk.

“Master, the fast horse censor and General Gan Mao came to give gifts and congratulations. There are also some other officials. Do you think you can meet them?”

Just after walking out of the door, the housekeeper came over again and said to Lin Tian.

“Oh? What did they send you to congratulate me for?”

Lin Tian was very curious, so he asked the housekeeper.

“Of course, they came to congratulate you for becoming the prime minister. In the future, you will surely rise to prominence and bring honor to our Lin family.”

Obviously, the housekeeper had not yet come out of the joy of Lin Tian becoming the prime minister. Hearing Lin Tian’s question, the housekeeper said to Lin Tian happily.

“Don’t meet them, send them all back.”

Lin Tian was annoyed by this matter. Hearing that they still came to congratulate him, he didn’t have a good attitude. He said something to the housekeeper and wanted to go back to his room.

“Master, this is not good. Now that you have just become the prime minister, they come to congratulate you. If you don’t even meet them, they will definitely have other ideas. At that time, it will be detrimental to your development in the court.”

The housekeeper certainly hoped that Lin Tian would meet them, so he reminded Lin Tian and pulled Lin Tian to the front yard. At the same time, the housekeeper also said.

“Just go and meet them. It won’t take long anyway. They should deliver the gifts and leave after a few polite words.”

Lin Tian knew that the housekeeper was really thinking about him, so he didn’t strongly refuse. He followed the housekeeper to the front yard reluctantly.

At this time, the censor of the fast horse, General Gan Mao, and other officials were waiting in the living room.

“Congratulations to Prime Minister Lin, congratulations to Prime Minister Lin.”

When they saw Lin Tian coming over, they all stood up and saluted to Lin Tian.

“You’re welcome, everyone. You’re welcome.”

Lin Tian also greeted them.

Although Lin Tian hated these red tapes, these etiquettes were still indispensable.

After greeting them for a long time, Lin Tian finally found an opportunity to get away. If he didn’t find a way to leave, he might be dragged for the whole afternoon.

On the second day, Lin Tian was summoned to the palace by the emperor. When

Lin Tian just walked into the palace, others saw that the three floors inside and outside the palace were full of soldiers.

At this moment, the palace seemed to have been surrounded. If Lin Tian had not seen their clothes and knew that they were soldiers of Yan State, he might have really thought that the emperor was in danger.

Now, Lin Tian’s clothes are no longer the green clothes as before, but the red first-class official uniform.

When Lin Tian just got home yesterday, the emperor wanted to send someone to deliver Lian Tian’s official uniform. Lin Tian tried it on and found that it was still very suitable, as if it was tailor-made for him.

After putting on the clothes, Lin Tian realized that he was calculated by the emperor. I am afraid that the emperor had planned to make him the prime minister of Yan State a long time ago.

Now that I have promised the emperor, I can’t resign the position of prime minister rashly. I can only resign the position of prime minister after completing the agreement with the emperor.

Lin Tian came to the place of the morning court and found that all the civil and military officials had already arrived. No need to guess, I am afraid that only I am missing.

This time, Lin Tian finally didn’t have to sneak in like before, so he walked in with a swagger.

“We pay our respects to the Prime Minister and wish him a long life.”

Except for the emperor who didn’t move, all the other civil and military officials bowed to Lin Tian. This

was the first time he had received such treatment since he became an official. To be honest, Lin Tian felt a little excited at the moment. His

pace as he walked forward became particularly confident.

Lin Tian didn’t say much, Tianjin nodded and continued to walk forward.
