Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 60, The Battle between Qin and Liu, the Biggest Winner
Emperor Qing asked about the vacancy of Right Vice Minister.

As expected, a large number of civil and military officials submitted petitions requesting that Qin Heng be appointed as the Right Vice Minister.

Almost all the military generals and most of the civil officials joined in, as well as some earls and marquis.

This is almost forcing the emperor to abdicate!

Qin Ye opened his eyes for the first time and looked at these civil officials and military generals in astonishment.

He contacted several heavyweights, but he didn't expect that most of the court would agree with him.

This is definitely not what he wants.

Even if he gets the position of Right Vice Minister, it will cause dissatisfaction of Emperor Qing, and the pace of cracking down on the Qin family will accelerate.

Qin Heng's face was full of joy. It's settled, it's settled!

With so many people supporting him, even the emperor couldn't refute him.

Emperor Qing's face almost turned dark, and he was about to agree and then settle the score with the Qin family later.

Unexpectedly, Qin Ye laughed and spoke righteously.

"Your Majesty! My son is stubborn and I am afraid he cannot lead all these people. Please choose another important official."

"Everyone says Lin Ruofu is an old fox, but Old Man Qin Ye is not weak either."

Liu Hong muttered a few words to himself.

When Liu Hong saw all the ministers in the court stand up, he knew that Qin Heng could not become the Right Vice Minister.

Chen Pingping is so awesome. After the Supervisory Office secretly discovered the little tricks in Qianlong Bay.

Not only did Chen Pingping conceal the crime, he also showed kindness to Liu Hong and helped him.

Although Liu Hong didn't know how Chen Pingping managed to make most officials support Qin Heng.

Emperor Qing's expression relaxed as he realized that the Qin family seemed to have been set up.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s the eldest princess or Lin Ruofu.

At least the Qin family cannot really control the court, which makes Emperor Qing feel much more relieved.

"In that case, who does Envoy Qin plan to appoint as the new leader?"

No matter who Qin Ye recommends, the next one will definitely be a close confidant of the Qin family.

In order to rebalance the power between the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, Emperor Qing had to secretly interfere.

Unexpectedly, the person recommended by Qin Ye surprised Emperor Qing.

"I recommend Pei Bo!"

Qin Ye bowed and saluted, then smiled brightly.

"Even an old man like me is familiar with Pei Bo's achievements! He conquered the State of Yu, saved the Dingzhou camp, and joined forces with the Hu people to break through Qianlong Bay, forcing the Northern Qi army to retreat a hundred miles."

"If such a genius is not used, wouldn't it be a joke? The court of Qing Kingdom has no ability to judge people, not to mention that Pei Bo is only 26 years old now."

Very good! Qin Ye did not give up on giving Liu Hong eye drops until the end.

He hinted to Emperor Qing that Liu Hong is only 26 years old now, and you can use Liu Hong to overthrow this old man who is almost 70 years old.

Then who will be trained to suppress Liu Hong's prestige?

As expected, Emperor Qing fell into deep thought.

The court was silent. No one expected that a third-rank right assistant minister could make even Old Master Qin take a step back.

"In that case, Liu Hong will also serve as the Right Assistant Minister!"

Emperor Qing finally made a decision to give the position of Right Vice Minister back to Liu Hong and stop suppressing the Qin family.

He looked at He Hai meaningfully.

"Minister He, you are only fifty-seven years old this year. I believe you will not be like Minister Huang."

He Hai was so frightened that he trembled and quickly knelt on the ground and said yes.

Logically speaking, a second-rank official does not need to kneel, and Emperor Qing did not reprimand He Hai.

He Hai's kneeling almost brought shame to the Ministry of War.

"Retreat!"

Emperor Qing waved his hand, feeling a little tired.

This group of people have ulterior motives, and as an emperor, he can only check and suppress them to maintain the majesty of imperial power.

I really want to kill all these people and let the emperor take all the power.

Unfortunately, this is impossible! Emperor Qing also knows this very well.

This grand court meeting was secretly planned by Chen Pingping.

Not only did Liu Hong not weaken his power, but he became the biggest winner, which made many people feel depressed.

Especially under the Second Prince, there are officials who have surrendered to the Eldest Princess.

They didn't understand Emperor Qing's thoughts and couldn't figure out why Liu Hong had such royal favor.

There were no more than ten people in Kyoto who could guess what Emperor Qing was thinking: Fan Jian, Chen Pingping, Old Man Qin, Lin Ruofu, the eldest princess, and the indifferent Prince Jing.

These people understand Emperor Qing’s thoughts, so they can rise to prominence.

And now Liu Hong has also stepped into one of them.

A large number of court officials congratulated Liu Hong.

Now that Liu Hong's position is stable, the Qin family can no longer suppress Liu Hong at will.

It will be easier for them to handle things in the future if they get to know each other.

He Hai was in high spirits and was the most popular official in the Ministry of War.

Unexpectedly, Huang Ming suddenly resigned, allowing him to get a bargain for nothing.

"Minister He, I hope you can support me in the future."

Liu Hong also came over and complimented his boss.

He Hai's eyes almost narrowed into slits and he laughed.

"I am glad to see you. I am glad to see you. I hope Minister Liu will take care of the affairs of the Ministry in the future."

It is obvious that He Hai is ready to be a hands-off boss and just lie down and do nothing.

He took advantage of the fact that he was not overthrown by his political opponents to make a lot of money and then left in style.

He didn't want to be like Huang Ming, who was forced to resign before earning enough money for his retirement.

"Minister Liu, please stay."

After many officials left, Eunuch Hou stood up from the corner and handed Liu Hong a box.

He also specifically instructed Liu Hong.

"This is a gift from His Majesty. Only you, the Minister, can see it."

Liu Hong held the box, and the officials around him looked at him with envy.

The Minister of War had no gifts, but the Vice Minister did. How could He Hai put his face down?

However, it seems that He Hai doesn't care at all. He should be learning from the Minister of Revenue who has been recuperating from illness.

Liu Hong held the small box in his hand, his eyes gloomy.

He rubbed the box gently with his fingers and found that it felt weightless, so it certainly wasn't filled with any gold, silver or jewelry.

That can only be one...

Huang Ming's sudden resignation really made Emperor Qing very unhappy.

Isn't the purpose of keeping a large number of corrupt officials in the court to kill them once they are fattened up, just like today?
Liu Hong looked at Huang Ming, who had taken off his official uniform, with pity.

My Lord Shangshu, I'm sorry! I have no grudge against you, but the emperor wants to kill you.

Fan Jian walked up to Liu Hong and looked at Eunuch Hou expressionlessly.

Eunuch Hou quickly put on a fake smile, bowed and took his leave.

"Alas... your life is very bad! I don't know whether it is right or wrong for Ruoruo to marry you, but as long as I am in the court, I will protect your life."

Fan Jian sighed.

Maybe Fan Xian didn't even know why Fan Jian and Fan Ruoruo had a certain identification with Liu Hong.

That’s because Liu Hong was also from Danzhou, and as an official in the court, he had a strong sense of local attachment.

The two men slowly left the palace. Fan Jian's red-robed knights and Liu Hong's personal guards surrounded them, isolating the inside and the outside.

Liu Hong ignored Eunuch Hou's warning, took out the note from the small box, showed it to Fan Jian, and then tore it into pieces.

"Uncle, I am not anyone's pawn. This is the path I chose."

Fan Jian was in a daze, as if he was thinking of that free and easy woman, and then shook his head.

I laughed and realized that I was really old.

Ye Qingmei's only child is Fan Xian.

"Come to my house for dinner! Fan Xian is right, you and Ruoruo should really cultivate your relationship."

"But your Majesty's side..."

Liu Hong hesitated before speaking.

Emperor Qing doesn't want to get too close.

Even if he was ordered to marry Fan Ruoruo, it would only make the Fan family reluctant to kill him.

Fan Jian looked indifferent and walked almost towards the Fan Mansion.

"Your Majesty knows everything..."

Even though Fan Jian was Emperor Qing's foster brother, Emperor Qing never gave up his suspicion and secretly placed spies in Fan's mansion.
