Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 63 - The Lost Fan Niu
63: Chapter 63: The Lost Fan Niu
63 -63: The Lost Fan Niu
And now, looking at the young Emperor upon hearing the words, his brow furrowed immediately.
At the same time, he turned his gaze towards Chen Baicheng, his face full of confusion:
“What do you mean by that, Minister Chen?”
Seeing the young Emperor feigning ignorance, Chen Baicheng snorted coldly, then spoke:
“Your Majesty should be well aware of what I mean.
I have come today to demand an explanation from Your Majesty!
I have been loyal and devoted in my duties within the Right Martial Guard.
Why then, did Your Majesty remove me from the position of Right Martial Guard Commander?
If Your Majesty does not provide an explanation, I will not accept it, and tomorrow at the morning court, I will appeal to my colleagues for their judgment!”
These words were quite disrespectful to the young Emperor.
Throughout history, no minister has dared speak to the Emperor in such a manner.
Seeing his arrogant demeanor, Lin Yi couldn’t help but want to step forward and beat him up:
“Damn it, who gave you the courage to be so arrogant with my woman?
If it weren’t for the need to focus on the bigger picture and eliminate your backers, I would draw my sword and kill you right now!”
These words caused the young Emperor’s face to redden slightly, and a warm current inexplicably swept through his heart.
“Minister Chen, do not be anxious.
I am well aware of your loyalty.
I only wished to have you help me quickly reorganize the Imperial Guard.
I was afraid that the affairs of the Right Martial Guard might impede you, so I arranged some matters concerning it.
But looking at it now, it seems that my handling of the situation was somewhat improper.
Given that, I will arrange for someone to revoke yesterday’s decree immediately, and you, Minister Chen, will continue to take care of all matters within the Right Martial Guard.”
At these words, Chen Baicheng was visibly stunned.
For a moment, he even doubted whether he had heard it wrong.
The young Emperor actually said he would rescind the decree??
Could the young Emperor truly be afraid of him?
Originally, he had planned to go back and collude with his trusted subordinates to eliminate Fan Niu, then regain the power, but now he was somewhat perplexed.
He couldn’t have imagined that the matter would be resolved so simply.
Of course, this was also the best solution.
Even though the young Emperor currently had no real power, he still retained the status of an Emperor.
Thus, if the young Emperor really insisted on replacing him, it would likely not be easy to handle.
Even if Fan Niu, supported by the young Emperor, might not be able to secure his position, it would probably also be impossible for himself to return to his former position.
Most likely, the Fourth Prince would arrange for another of his trusted people to take up the position.
While Chen Baicheng was thinking this, he saw the young Emperor directly turn his gaze to a small eunuch next to him:
“Little Linzi, go immediately to the Right Martial Guard, gather all the commanders, officers, and officials, and convey my verbal order to revoke yesterday’s decree.
Chen Baicheng, aside from being the Commander of the Imperial Guard, will continue to serve as the Right Martial Guard Commander.”
Hearing this, Lin Yi promptly bowed, also responding with a promise.
After seeing this, the young Emperor then continued to look at Chen Baicheng with a smile:
“Minister Chen, are you satisfied with this solution?
If there is still anything you are dissatisfied with, I will change it accordingly.
You must understand, Minister Chen, you are my right-hand man now.
Should you have any needs, I am naturally obliged to fulfill them.”
Seeing that the young Emperor genuinely issued a verbal order, and also spoke to him in such a manner.LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayout LinearLayoutManager LinearLayoutManager LinearLayoutManager LinearLayoutManager LinearLayoutManagerLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayoutLinearLayout Chen Baicheng felt as if he was floating in elation.
Hehe, who says I, Chen Baicheng, can only be a Martial Artist?
Seeing the attitude and tone of the young Emperor, I, Chen Baicheng, might just end up playing the role of controlling the Emperor to command the lords!
Especially considering that yesterday, the young Emperor even distributed Silver to the Soldiers, his heart began to stir with excitement.
It seems that in the Inner Hall of the young Emperor, there are indeed some savings.
Thinking this, an immensely proud Chen Baicheng even began speaking arrogantly:
“With Your Majesty’s words, I am at ease.
However, Your Majesty, the weapons of my Right Martial Guard are outdated and might tarnish Your Majesty’s dignity, therefore I wish to replace them with new Armor, which will require a sum of Silver.
I hope Your Majesty will grant this request.”
After saying this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but give a mental thumbs up to this guy:
“Damn, this guy really plays a good hand!
And you were worried about not dragging him down completely, yet now you’ve brought a knife to yourself.”
The exclamation in Lin Yi’s heart was exactly what the young Emperor was thinking.
Thus, the two of them exchanged a look, each catching the subtle smile in the other’s eyes.
“Minister Chen has thoughtful considerations, if that’s the case, I will take care of this matter altogether.”
After speaking to Chen Baicheng, he continued turning to Lin Yi:
“Little Linzi, I entrust this matter to you, make sure Minister Chen is satisfied!”
“Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured.
Commander Chen, rest assured, I will arrange for this Silver as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, the young Emperor simply nodded:
“Yes, there’s no delay.
Little Linzi, go with Minister Chen to the Right Martial Guard now.”
These words clearly indicated he was ushering them out.
Having exceedingly achieved his plans, Chen Baicheng was satisfied and, bowing towards the young Emperor, soon took his leave with big strides.
Seeing this, Lin Yi also nodded with a smile to the young Emperor, then quickly followed behind Chen Baicheng.
After Lin Yi left, the young Emperor, without turning back, softly said: “Go ahead, make sure there are no mishaps with Little Linzi.”
Meanwhile, a white shadow flashed and disappeared at the rear window.
…
Moving on to Lin Yi’s side, after leaving the Imperial Study Room, he led a group of little eunuchs and followed Chen Baicheng to the Right Martial Guard.
With Chen Baicheng there, naturally, no one could stop them.
Of course, Lin Yi noticed something this time.
That is, the Soldiers of the Right Martial Guard showed friendly smiles on their faces upon seeing him.
Lin Yi understood this well; it was entirely because they had just received his Silver.
However, this was clearly the situation Lin Yi was most hoping to see.
The happier these guys were, the more distressed Chen Baicheng would become.
Perhaps eager to regain his military power, Chen Baicheng made no delay upon arriving at the Right Martial Guard, and soon gathered all personnel, except those on duty, to the minor training ground.
The Deputy Generals had even arrived at the assembly stand early.
When Lin Yi’s eyes fell on Fan Niu, he distinctly sensed a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
