Luck entry, starting from the Nine Dragons' succession

Chapter 27 Storm Rising, Left Prime Minister Leaves Beijing
Imperial Garden, Quhe Lake.

On a small boat, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe was feeding the fish in the lake.

"Otomo, do you have any new candidates for the promotion of Holy Emperor Rice?"

Emperor Yuanchu threw a handful of bait and asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, we have a new candidate."

"The Minister of Revenue recommended the Left Prime Minister to promote Holy Emperor Rice."

Eunuch Su told everything in detail.

"Left Prime Minister?" Emperor Yuanchu shook his head. "It's inappropriate. It's really inappropriate."

"The Left Prime Minister is already old. How will the people of the world view me if I am asked to travel all over the seventy-two counties of Daqian?"

"Do you think I'm being harsh on my old ministers?"

Eunuch Su knew what Emperor Yuanchu was thinking and quickly joined in the fun.

"Your Majesty, in addition to the Minister of Revenue, there are also the Left Vice Minister of Rites, the Left Vice Minister of Justice, the Right Vice Minister of Works, and twelve censors, a total of thirty-nine people, who unanimously recommend the Left Prime Minister."

Upon hearing the identity of the person who recommended him, a glimmer of light flashed in Emperor Yuanchu's eyes.

These are all the second brother’s people.

It seems that the second child is not that stupid.

After listening to Eunuch Su's report, Emperor Yuanchu sighed and showed a helpless expression.

"Ugh--"

"Left Prime Minister, you are the popular choice!"

"Although I am unwilling, I cannot disappoint the people. I can only let the Left Prime Minister suffer so that the people of the world can enjoy a better life."

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. The people of the world will surely know that it is you who have made them happy."

Eunuch Su flattered and pampered Emperor Yuanchu, and served him until he felt very comfortable.

"Issue an order that the Left Prime Minister be in charge of promoting the Holy Emperor Rice and depart immediately without delay."

……

Zuo Xiangfu.

The Left Prime Minister's face changed slightly after hearing the imperial edict read out by Eunuch Su.

Even though he had experienced decades of ups and downs, his heart was still filled with shock after hearing the contents of the imperial edict.

For a moment, I couldn't react.

Seeing that the Left Prime Minister did not move, Eunuch Su urged him.

"Lord Zuo Xiang, why don't you accept the order?"

"Could it be that you, sir, want to disobey the order?"

Eunuch Su's sinister words woke up the Left Prime Minister.

The left prime minister sighed inwardly and said helplessly.

"Old minister, take the order!"

The left prime minister saw through the intention of Emperor Yuanchu's edict at a glance.

But this is an open conspiracy.

He was allowed to leave the central government by promoting the Holy Emperor Rice, an achievement that would go down in history.

As a subject, what else can he say?

There was nothing he could do except to show some respect for Shane.

If he refused, people would think he was ungrateful.

"Eunuch Su, does His Majesty have any other instructions?"

"His Majesty has ordered you, the Left Prime Minister, to depart immediately without delay."

"The millions of people of Daqian are eagerly awaiting your arrival, Lord Zuo Xiang."

Zuo Xiang's heart sank.

fast!
too fast!
Your Majesty is impatient and wants him to leave the center.

"Oh—right!"

"There is one more thing that His Majesty has asked me to convey to you, the Left Prime Minister."

"This old minister listens to the imperial edict."

The left prime minister bowed with a serious expression.

"Don't be nervous, Lord Zuo Xiang. His Majesty just wants to exchange experiences on feeding fish with you."

Feed the fish?

The Left Prime Minister was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Eunuch Su speak slowly.

"Your Majesty said that feeding fish is like governing a country. If the fish are well-behaved, then feed them more. If they fight and quarrel, then starve them for a few meals. If they still refuse to quiet down, then kill them."

"After all, there's more than one fish."

After hearing this, Zuo Xiang's eyes flickered.

Your Majesty, you are not speaking to him.

Instead, he used his ears to tell the prince.

What's up with this?

Why is this so!
After Eunuch Su left, a young man in blue clothes congratulated him with a happy look on his face.

"Congratulations, father. Congratulations, father."

"Your name will go down in history soon."

Seeing his son congratulating him foolishly, the Left Prime Minister frowned and shook his head.

"You think this is a good job?"

"Isn't it, Father?"

"Everyone in the court, civil and military, is vying for this opportunity. His Majesty still values ​​my father and has entrusted this task to you."

After hearing his son's words, the left prime minister sighed and no longer had the thought of scolding him.

My son has no political sense at all.

If I didn't have your protection and you were sold, you wouldn't have to help count the money for others!
Leaving Yujing, a place of trouble, may not be a bad thing.

"After my father leaves Yujing, who will take charge of the affairs of the Crown Prince?"

"what?"

The young man in green was stunned. He had never expected this.

"Dad, what should we do?"

"You have already received the imperial edict. If... this... you cannot disobey it."

The young man in green shrank his head, looking worried.

"How to do?"

"What else can be done?"

"Send all the gifts sent by the Crown Prince back to the East Palace."

"From today on, you will follow me to the counties and promote the Holy Emperor Rice."

"Until the mission is accomplished, I will not return to Yujing."

"What do the ups and downs, the right and wrong of Yujing have to do with us?"

After saying this, Zuo Xiang felt open-minded, refreshed, and even his posture straightened a little.

……

East Palace.

"Have all the gifts given to the Left Prime Minister been returned?"

"Your Highness, these gifts have not been touched, not a single cent missing."

The Chief Secretary of the Eastern Palace reported with his head lowered.

He could already sense the raging anger within the prince.

Bang!
The prince kicked over the coffee table with one foot, his expression ferocious, like an Asura from the Nine Nether Hell.

"why?"

"why?"

"Father, what did this son of yours do wrong?"

The prince roared angrily, like a wild beast in the wilderness.

……

In a dark secret room.

The candlelight flickered, illuminating a corner of the secret room.

"The Saint Goddess has foreseen the truth. The Left Prime Minister has indeed left the capital."

"A fake letter alienated the dog emperor, the crown prince, and the King of Zhenbei."

"I admire the wisdom of the Saint Lady so deeply."

The girl with an ethereal temperament raised the corners of her mouth slightly when she heard the flattery from her subordinates.

The beauty of a smile is like a solitary orchid in a valley, pure, flawless, fresh and refined.

"Flies don't bite seamless eggs."

"The Dog Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the King of Zhenbei are all close friends."

"Even if I tried my best, I couldn't separate the three of them."

"In the final analysis, I just handed the dog emperor a knife, and he stabbed the prince with his own hands."

The ethereal girl nodded slightly.

There was no surprise in those clear eyes.

The relationship between the emperor and the crown prince has always been like this.

"Hehe, the King of Zhenbei may not know yet, but he has already taken the blame."

The old man smiled slowly, and when he thought of the saint's strategy, he couldn't help but admire her.

A fake letter was deliberately discovered by the spies of the Black Ice Platform and delivered to Emperor Yuanchu.

then……

The left prime minister, the head of the civil officials, was banished from Yujing.

Really, brilliant!

"How's the situation with the raccoon cat?" the ethereal girl asked, changing the subject.

"Because of that letter, he was exposed and was hunted by the King of Zhenbei."

"However, the Grand Elder has already headed north to cover the raccoon cats' retreat."

"Let the raccoon cat come to Yujing. I have a new person to hand over to him."

"Got it, Saint!"

"Also, when do we start contacting the Crown Prince?"

"No rush!" The ethereal girl shook her head, "It's not time for us to take the stage yet."

"The current prince is still fighting like a trapped beast."

"The Crown Prince will definitely not be reconciled without the Left Prime Minister, his greatest support."

"He will most likely set his sights on Shang Hongye."

"Shang Hongye is seeking a son-in-law?"

"That's right! The prince, who lost an arm, is eager to replenish his strength."

"Is there a better tonic than the military power of the King of Zhenbei?"

The ethereal girl had almost foreseen that Shang Hongye’s arrival in Beijing would inevitably trigger a fierce battle.

The princes will definitely fight for Shang Hongye.

"However, the more he struggled, the tighter the chain in the Dog Emperor's hand tightened."

"Finally... strangled him to death."

"We can only approach the prince when he becomes desperate."

"After all, we are traitors."

"Unless he's desperate, how could the prince listen to us?"

Seeing that the saint was confident, the old man felt relieved and made a gesture with his hand.

"My old mother has no life, my hometown is empty."

"Mother will definitely protect us. The plan will succeed."
