Chapter 551 Fulfilling the Promise
In fact, the emperor was very trustworthy.

When everyone thought that Jiang Yichen was going to be estranged from the emperor this time, the emperor directly announced that Jiang Yichen would be the chief assistant.

There was an uproar all over the court.

"Your Majesty, this move is very inappropriate. If Mr. Jiang has been in the capital during this period, then the humble minister will naturally have nothing to say, but Mr. Jiang has been in the south of the Yangtze River during this period of time, so he is not very concerned about the affairs of the capital. Understand, how can I take up this position?"

Apparently other people felt the same way, and they all persuaded the emperor to withdraw his order.

Only Wu Hai had expected such a result long ago. When Jiang Yichen left, the emperor had already hinted at himself. Now that Jiang Yichen came back, this position naturally belonged to Jiang Yichen.

Originally asking him to temporarily replace the position of 1st assistant, but not giving others a chance, it was a promise left to Jiang Yichen, and now it is just the emperor fulfilling his previous promise.

The most excited person at this time was probably Li Hetong. Before that, he had always been the best candidate for the first assistant, but the emperor never asked him to sit in this position.

He thought it was just because of his lack of strength, but now that the emperor directly gave Jiang Yichen the position of chief assistant, he couldn't be reconciled anyway.

Especially since Jiang Yichen is still so young, he can wait for himself to step down from the position of Chief Assistant.

"Your Majesty, I think that Master Jiang still needs to continue to hone himself. It is indeed too hasty to hand over the position of Chief Assistant to Master Jiang this time."

The emperor glanced at Li Hetong indifferently. He was aware of Li Hetong's behavior during this time, so he really had no reason to praise him.

"Li Aiqing should have been in contact with Jiang Aiqing the most during this time. Don't you know Jiang Aiqing's strength? Or is Li Aiqing also wanting the position of chief assistant? Is this what I'm talking about?"

Immediately, Li Hetong's cold sweat broke out. During this period of time, he was indeed a mess. If the emperor found out about this, he would definitely be punished, but he really didn't like Jiang Yichen.

If Jiang Yichen became Shangshu now, he would naturally have no objections, but Jiang Yichen felt that such an important position as the chief assistant was a bit too wasteful.

Jiang Yichen just stood calmly in the center of the hall, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Only Jiang Yichen knew how happy he was at this moment. Before, he had gone through untold hardships to get the position of first assistant in middle age, but now it is different.

He is the youngest Chief Assistant of this dynasty, no matter who sees him, he will say that he is young and promising, this makes Jiang Yichen feel that his efforts are not in vain.

"What does General Wu think of this matter?"

Wu Hai, who was acting as the chief assistant, was named as it should be.

However, Wu Hai really didn't have any idea about the position of chief assistant. This is the position that civil servants dream of, but he is a general.

"My minister thinks Master Jiang is worthy of this job."

Wu Hai's words can be said to have made the final decision on this matter. The emperor looked at Wu Hai very satisfied. The reason why he reused Wu Hai was because Wu Hai really understood his own thoughts.

For example, now, everyone feels that Jiang Yichen is unfit for this job, only Wu Hai understands the emperor's thoughts, since the emperor's mind has been made up, is there anything else that can change the emperor's mind?

Naturally there is not.

So at this time, instead of singing against the emperor and Jiang Yichen, it would be better to add fuel to the flames and let others understand that Jiang Yichen is now the chosen one.

For a while, the court became quiet, and he didn't dare to look at the expressions of the emperor and Jiang Yichen anymore, but felt that what happened this time was really too mysterious.

"Since you Aiqings have no other objections, the position of chief assistant belongs to Jiang Aiqing."

Jiang Yichen knelt down decisively at this time, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

This is what he deserves, why not grab it quickly?

This is the most thought in Jiang Yichen's heart.

Therefore, Jiang Yichen took the position of first assistant with peace of mind, and even if others wanted to question him, he could still use his full strength.

After coming down to court, Li Hetong looked at Jiang Yichen viciously, and asked, "Did you already know that this would be the result? No wonder you and Gu Manxiu looked down on me in every possible way. It turned out that they were already prepared."

Now he is like a clown in front of Jiang Yichen, he has taken everything away from him, this time his official position is about to disappear, but Jiang Yichen has become the chief assistant.

No matter when this is said, it will be ridiculed to the extent that Li Hetong didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing Li Hetong's distraught appearance, Jiang Yichen just smiled faintly, "Your Majesty did promise before that as long as the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are cured, the position of chief assistant will be mine, but if Lord Li behaves better, he should also It is not possible for His Majesty to be so decisive."

The implication is that Jiang Yichen was given the position of chief assistant, but in the end it was because of Li Hetong's inaction.

Immediately, Li Hetong's face turned pale, why did he forget that the emperor's mind is the most difficult to guess?

At this time, the father-in-law next to the emperor also came to summon Li Hetong.

Li Hetong became even more nervous for a while, and when he thought about what he had done before, he knew that this time the emperor must have made up his mind to dismiss him from his position.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Yichen couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "Master Li, if I knew this earlier, why bother?"

If Li Hetong hadn't been so disrespectful and indulgent back then, how could the position of chief assistant fall to Jiang Yichen's head?

To put it bluntly, Li Hetong was too floating, and it was also because his recent political achievements were really unseen that the emperor chose this approach.

At this time Wu Hai also came out and congratulated Jiang Yichen.

"I didn't expect you to become the first assistant after you came back. I really can't match it."

Wu Hai couldn't help sighing, when he was at Jiang Yichen's age, he was still looking for a sense of presence in the military camp, but now Jiang Yichen is doing well, he just skipped so many levels and became the chief assistant, no matter who saw it, he would say lucky degree.

Jiang Yichen felt that Wu Hai was just being self-effacing, "I would like to thank General Wu for speaking for me today, otherwise I might miss this opportunity."

Wu Hai waved his hand, "You got the status of chief assistant yourself, but it has nothing to do with me."
