Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 7

Chapter 7 The so-called crafty and guilty official

“What objection does beloved subject have? You may speak.” Emperor Jinghui looked at him with interest. One had to know that although Lin Qing had followed him for so long, but Lin Qing had always supported his decision. It was really strange that he had an objection today.

Everyone thought that Lin Qing was a wicked official who liked to bootlick the emperor because he is Jiu Qiansui, the Great Inner Chief Eunuch and the person closest to the emperor. Moreover, the emperor favored and trusted him completely. Sometimes, what he said was even more useful than the officials. In the eyes of the officials, that was corrupt politics.

In addition to being the Chief Eunuch, he is also the commander of the Prefecture of Arrest. He has the authority to supervise the officials and arrest the rebels. As long as he wanted, he could directly report on them in front of the emperor.

To them, this was a sword. Moreover, it was a sword that could take their life. Who would want a sword to hang above their head all day long?

One then had to worry about his head being cut one day.

Besides, the emperor valued him very much. He believed him more than them, the officials. He let Lin Qing go do all the important matters. Why did he still need them, the officials for?

Sometimes, even the princes couldn’t compare to the favor he receives from the emperor. So, the princes also disliked him.

In the end, because you are a eunuch, everything you do is wrong. It is wrong for the emperor to believe, trust and rely on you because you are a castrated official.

A castrated official doesn’t have that right and only deserves to be a slave.

No matter whether Lin Qing did things that harmed the country and the people, he is wrong because his existence in itself is wrong.

Therefore, all the civil and military officials loathed him and the princes hated him. He is someone everyone wants to get rid of. He is guilty and is crafty and a bootlicker.

Lin Qing knew about all of these, but he is Lin Qing. When he was a small eunuch, he already followed emperor Jinghui. At that time, emperor Jinghui was a small wangye. During the foul wind and bloody rain of the fight over the emperor’s seat and surrounded by countless of danger, it was he who walked step by step with emperor Jinghui. What he had gone through had been more than those officials, so, naturally he got more in return. Moreover, the things he got was not things that he could reject even if he wanted to reject. It was ridiculous that these people would make trouble for him because he is a eunuch.

• Wangye: prince of first rank.

He deserved everything that he had received. He was with a clear conscience. If those people were not convinced, then he would let them be convinced because he is Lin Qing and had his own pride.

Lin Qing seemed to think for a moment and then said respectfully, “This servant felt that third prince is right. This servant had seen the young master of the head of the Ministry of Justice. He is truly a young talent and promising. Moreover, this servant feels that our imperial guards needs such fresh blood. Letting the young master of the head of the Ministry of Justice be the deputy guard of the Left Imperial Guard couldn’t be more suitable.

The officials were shocked and looked surprised at Lin Qing who stood beside emperor Jinghui. Could it be that this Lin Qing wanted to stand on third prince’s side?

The people of third prince were ecstatic. The people of second prince showed a lost look. The people of the Eastern Palace’s crown prince felt bitter. Situ Yuanxiao couldn’t help but jump out, pointed at Lin Qing and said, “You are a castrated official. Where do you have the right to speak here? Asking emperor father to punish Lin Qing!”

“Retreat!” Emperor Jinghui shouted. This son of his disliked Lin Qing very much. This made him a bit unhappy. Could it be that the person zhen took a fancy on would be bad?

Emperor Jinghui felt that Lin Qing was very reasonable. After he let Situ Yuanxiao retreat, he said, “Beloved subject Lin makes sense. The main guard of the Imperial Guard is in his prime now. It is appropriate to let him lead a group of young people. Moreover, people would always get old. The Imperial Guard couldn’t always use old people.”

“Emperor is wise. I believe that this move of emperor would definitely make the imperial guards get further. The imperial city would be more strictly guarded and protect my Liang capital for all ages,” Lin Qing said genuinely moved.

“Mm, well said! My Great Liang would exist forever!” Emperor Jinghui was also a bit excited.

“Long live the emperor. My Great Liang would definitely go through ten thousand autumns and exist forever!” The officials seemed to be more passionate than emperor Jinghui, but only they know whether they were truly excited or faking it.

Situ Yuanxiao also clamored numbly. He looked at his eldest, second and third big brother who all seemed to be very calm, his heart seemed to be stuffed by something.

It hasn’t been long that Situ Yuanxiao began to participate in the political affairs. He hasn’t seen unusual scenes before. That was why he had this kind of reaction today about what had such happened.

This…this really seemed like the wives at the marketplace. Although, Situ Yuanxiao didn’t dare to say bad things about his emperor father, but ridiculing these officials was no pressure at all.

Situ Yuanxiao thought that he had seen shameless, but he had never seen people so shameless. This bootlick already reached to the sky. Why didn’t they just blow it up in the sky?!

All the officials at court were hypocrites!

His eyes turned to Lin Qing. Lin Qing seemed to have sensed that and also looked at him. That gaze obviously had a smile, but Situ Yuanxiao felt a bit cold.

This made Situ Yuanxiao determined once again that this person must be gotten rid of!

After the morning court came to an end, Lin Qing left with emperor Jinghui and left all the officials behind.

At this time, Situ Wenrui went to Situ Yaohua and Situ Yuanxiao. He said, “Eldest big brother and fifth little brother, why didn’t you come to my residence yesterday? After all, it had been a long time since we got together. I miss eldest big brother and fifth little brother very much. Moreover, it was this brother’s birthday yesterday.”
