Chapter 275
"I want to ask Pei Aiqing, what do you think?"

The emperor said, his eyes were fixed on Pei Qin without blinking, he knew that I wanted to recruit Lin Jingsheng to be my son-in-law.

He had wanted to decree a marriage for a long time, but because of Lin Jingsheng's outstanding talent, he wanted to wait and see.

Whether it is better to recruit him as a son-in-law, or to make him a prime minister in the future, when the emperor is hesitating.

It's good that Pei Qin wants to poach my corner.

"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't know what His Majesty is talking about." Pei Qin saw the anger in the emperor's eyes.

He groaned inwardly, and quickly pretended to be stupid, but was interrupted by the emperor who hadn't finished speaking.

"You really don't know anything?" The emperor squinted his eyes, staring at this old man who was pretending to be crazy.

"Returning to His Majesty, the old minister really doesn't know anything." Pei Qin said blankly.

"Hmph, since you don't know anything, let me ask you, your Pei family's daughter has already married me as my concubine, and you still want to marry your granddaughter to the most outstanding young talent in the court. What do you want to do?"

The emperor sneered, his eyes full of threats.

"This old minister just hopes that his granddaughter can have a better home. If the old minister is guilty, please be punished by His Majesty."

Pei Qin was suppressed by the emperor's aura and had to bow his head to admit his mistake.

"Hehe, Mr. Pei, you really know how to plan. If your daughter of the Pei family is not still in the harem, I really doubt whether you are really my father-in-law."

The emperor's tone was a bit lacking in confidence, he knew that the Pei family was wholeheartedly for the royal family.

It's a pity that Concubine Pei didn't give birth to a son, otherwise, the son born by combining the blood of the royal family with the blood of the Pei family.

He must be the best child, and he must be able to inherit the great line.

The emperor's favorite seventh princess was born to Concubine Pei, but there was no movement after Concubine Pei gave birth to the seventh princess.

After Pei Qin heard the emperor's words, she slumped on the chair as if she had lost weight.

The emperor doesn't think he will rebel!
How is this possible?
He just cherishes the talent of Lin Jingsheng, otherwise, what difference would there be between Lin Jingsheng being his grandson-in-law and his grandson-in-law!

Although Pei Qin was worried, she didn't dare to show it.

Seeing that Pei Qin hadn't spoken for a long time, the emperor couldn't help feeling strange, isn't this old guy always eloquent?

Why didn't he speak suddenly today? Could it be that he really had two minds? That's fine.

Just as the emperor was about to get angry, he saw Pei Qin kneeling in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, I really just appreciate Master Lin's talent.

Weichen was thinking, His Majesty really intended to recruit Lin Jingsheng as consort, why did he not make an order, so Weichen just wanted to help His Majesty. "

"Hmph, I don't know you yet. I don't care whether you appreciate it or not. Lin Jingsheng is my chosen son-in-law. If you dare to do anything else, I will immediately abolish your official position."

The emperor threatened viciously.

Seeing the emperor like this, Pei Qin felt relieved. It seems that his daughter should be fine.

After all, the emperor wasn't that confused, he would put Pei Qin's daughter in limbo just because of one word.

"I don't dare to have any more objections." Pei Qin said respectfully.

"Pei Aiqing, get up."

Pei Qin stood up, but did not leave.

Seeing this, the emperor frowned and said, "What else do you need?"

"Your Majesty, you just said that you want to abolish my official position? Why is that?"

"What do you think! Do you want me to abolish your title and demote you to a commoner?" The emperor asked back.

"No~ I don't dare to think like this, Your Majesty is a model for all people, you are the patron saint of the people, you are an emperor through the ages."

When the emperor heard Pei Qin's compliments, his mood didn't improve a bit, but even worse.

"Hmph! I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense, Xiao Lizi will go to Xuan Lin Jingsheng to have an audience immediately."

The emperor snorted coldly, he knew that Pei Qin was really thinking about Dayan.

Now, the emperor has confirmed that Lu Shaoqian is his nephew, and Lin Jingsheng's sister is the general's wife.

There is no need for Lin Jingsheng to be the prime minister, let him be an idle son-in-law.

Although this matter is very unfair to Lin Jingsheng, but what's wrong with being a son-in-law, my Seventh Princess is so outstanding.

"Your Majesty is wise, I admire you." Pei Qin hurriedly saluted.

"Also, Lin Jingsheng will be your grandson-in-law from now on, don't play tricks behind your back, or I won't be able to forgive you."

The emperor stared at Pei Qin warningly, and Pei Qin had no choice but to bow his head when he saw this.

"Okay, step back." The emperor waved his hand to signal Pei Qin to step back.

"Resign, old minister." Pei Qin bowed and saluted, and then slowly walked out of the imperial study.

After Pei Qin left, the emperor sighed and muttered to himself: "I don't know how to choose, Pei Aiqing forced me to make a decision."

The emperor knew very well that Pei Qin was his most trusted civil servant, and the Pei family was also the one who helped him consolidate the government.

And the military general Lu Guogong who was loyal to the court has "died", and Pei Qin and Lu Xiaotian are his right-hand men.

It was the civil servants and generals who ensured his enthronement back then, and who were able to sit firmly on the throne after he ascended the throne.

But four years ago, Lu Xiaotian's Lu family army was completely annihilated, which may be a conspiracy of Su Guogong's government.

But the cunning old fox Su did it very cleanly, no matter how much he checked it was Lu Shaodong's mistake.

Even though he is the emperor, it is impossible to deal with Su Guogong as he likes.

The emperor can't say that the daughter of the Su family deliberately misled Lu Shaodong, the eldest son of Duke Lu's mansion.

The general who guards the city in the north is a disciple of Old Fox Su, and the guard of the western border, King Zhenxi, owes Old Fox Su the life-saving grace.

Obviously it was my own sister who went to exchange King Zhenxi with her, and I don't know how Old Fox Su climbed into the grace of saving his life.

After the emperor found out, Su Guogong had already colluded with King Zhenxi, and many Su family children were in the Zhenxi military camp.

In particular, there appeared a Xingyue Sect in Jianghu, and the leader Xiao Jueqing was the younger brother of the former prince.

The current situation is obviously extremely unfavorable to the emperor. He must find two civil servants and generals who can fully control the power of the court.

Pei Qin is old, Lin Jingsheng is his best successor, Duke Lu "died", and his second son Lu Shaoqian took his place.

At this time, a young eunuch hurried over, knelt at the emperor's feet and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Lin begs to see you."

"Xuan~" the emperor withdrew his thoughts and said lightly.

Lin Jingsheng walked into the imperial study, knelt down in front of the emperor and said, "My subject Lin Jingsheng joins His Majesty."

"Excuse me." The emperor stretched out his hand to make Lin Jingsheng stand up.

Lin Jingsheng stood up, looked around the imperial study room, but did not find Pei Qin.

Seeing Lin Jingsheng's hesitant expression, the emperor asked, "Lin Aiqing, what are you looking for?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I am looking for Mr. Pei. I want to resign and go back to the mountains. I don't want to be involved in disputes. I hope Your Majesty will make it happen."

Lin Jingsheng bowed his head and cupped his hands.

The emperor was shocked when he heard this.
