Chapter 131 The Ministry of Household Affairs (Part 2)(2/2)
Indeed, shortly after the meeting of the Imperial Study Room, Fan Jian, who said he had returned home due to illness, had already received the news. He knew that at tomorrow's court meeting, His Majesty would formally investigate the Ministry of Revenue.
But he was not worried. His solemn face no longer had the romantic aura he had back then, and he just kept calm and composed.
"It's not a plan to kill three birds with one stone, it's a plan to kill four birds with one stone." Fan Jian smiled and said to the opposite side: "As a minister who has been loyal to Your Majesty for nearly thirty years, I admire Your Majesty consistently. I have never weakened it. Today's thing is really... I admire you, and I admire you."
Regardless of the past and behind, when talking about His Majesty the Emperor, Fan Jian always calmed down and respected him. Today, these two admiration in the study... are what the boss is disrespectful.
"What is the fourth bird?"
Fan Jian stretched out his right palm and spread it in front of him, bent his thumb, as if he was learning the wonderful palm technique somewhere, with four fingers pointing to the sky with strong and unyielding force.
"The fourth bird is the inspector."
"Your Majesty wants to see if his order can still command the terrifying organization of the Supervision Bureau as he has been in the past years, rather than being held by Fan Xian as he is worried."
"The leisurely progress is too fast." Fan Jian sighed when he thought of his son who was far away in Jiangnan, "If Your Majesty can't even command the Supervisory Office, then the power in the hands of our Fan Mansion will be too great."
His eyebrows suddenly raised very frivolously and said with a smile: "And your Majesty wants to see what the real relationship between Chen Pingping and me is. Over the years, Your Majesty has always trusted me and the old lame. You also know why, because before Fan Xian entered Beijing, I and the old lame have always been in the same way as me. I will never do what he wants to do, and he will firmly oppose what I want to do."
Fan Jian's expression became dim: "When I think about it now, Chen Pingping and I should be both suspicious of each other, and doubting whether the other party played a disgraceful role in the incident many years ago."
"But Xian'er entered the capital." He continued to explain softly: "There are much less suspicion between Chen Pingping and I, and naturally, His Majesty's suspicion about us has increased. The most important thing is that Xian'er is getting more and more glorious now. Whenever Xian'er is more glorious, His Majesty thinks about what happened back then and what is now, and what is now the scenery will make me even more dislike."
"Your Majesty is jealous."
"So I'm going to quit."
Fan Jian, Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, finally concluded.
