Chapter 472 I Resign
"Your Majesty, I am only seventeen years old this year. I have only been studying for more than six years. I feel that my knowledge and qualifications are shallow. In the past few days, I have been working hard as a Daqian Taiwei, but I feel that I am not up to my ability."
"I want to resign and retire, and concentrate on studying. When I have completed my studies, I will come back to serve His Majesty. At the same time, I will recommend it to the Emperor, and the general will take charge of it."
"General Guan Rong has profound qualifications and great military exploits. In comparison, he is more suitable for the position of Lieutenant. If General Guan Rong is replaced, Daqian will definitely get better and better."
Lin Xiaofan bowed and saluted, and said with firm eyes.
The position of lieutenant was already a burden to him. Sitting in this position would arouse suspicion and make people worry every day, so it would be better to resign directly.
After all, Kang Xi's meaning was already obvious just now, that is, he didn't trust him and was afraid that he would one day steal the country. And this is not only what Kang Xi means, but also what the Queen Mother means.
Thinking about it, most of the officials in the court now look up to him, and generals such as Chen Tian and Jianfeng Jianbai also have a close relationship with him. If he thought about it from his perspective, he would have wanted to kill himself.
Suspicion has arisen. Regardless of whether he agrees to let Shen Jing go or not today, Kang Xi and others will find ways to deal with him.
And because of the identity of the other party, he had no way to deal with Kang Xi.
If he stayed in the capital, he might be killed by Kang Xi one day. Rather than doing this, it would be better for him to resign and go back.
When he came to the capital this time, he repelled the foreign enemies, destroyed the Chen family and the Zhang family, brought back Chen Xue, and fulfilled Duanmu Liangchuan and Zhao Zihan's dream of becoming officials. He had already overfulfilled his task.
He didn't want the position of lieutenant in the first place.
As for if the Sirius Kingdom uses underhanded tactics in the future, Duanmu Liangchuan, Kang Hong, and Guan Rong are here, so they can handle it.
"Lieutenant Lin, you must not do it. You are the person I trust the most, and whether it is in terms of ability or merit, you are the most suitable to be a lieutenant."
Kang Hong hurriedly refused. He had never meant to distrust Lin Xiaofan, and he also wanted to work with Lin Xiaofan to rule a peaceful and prosperous age.
But now, Lin Xiaofan was forced to resign by the Kang family.
Kang Xi stood aside and said nothing. He must have been confused by Lin Xiaofan's words.
Lin Xiaofan actually chose to resign directly and retire?
It shouldn't be. After normal people experience the taste of power, even if they are not obsessed with it, they will never give up easily.
In fact, the reason for his trip was to test whether Lin Xiaofan had the intention to rebel. But now, things have developed beyond his expectation.
Moreover, Lin Xiaofan is now a great hero who has defeated foreign enemies. If he were to be driven away by him at this time, wouldn't it mean that he would break the hearts of all the people in the world? At the same time, how do people in this world view themselves?
Or maybe Lin Xiaofan was sure that Kang Hong would not let him go?
Thinking about it, he decided to observe it again.
As for Shen Jing on the side, her legs were trembling with fear.
Isn't it?
Although Shen Zilong offended Lin Xiaofan, he did not cause any loss to the other party.
My attitude in admitting my mistake on this day was quite sincere. Although I had made a double plan, I just wanted to keep my official position. I never meant to embarrass Lin Xiaofan. Why would the other party rather give up the position of Taiwei? His career was ruined.
"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind. Now that all foreign enemies have been eliminated, and the treacherous ministers in the court have also been eliminated, the overall situation has been stabilized. As long as we work hard to govern, the national strength can be restored."
"I also hope that the emperor will use loyal ministers and distant people to reduce taxes and reduce corvee labor. If there is a disaster, we will actively provide disaster relief. In this way, it will only take one year, and the people in the country will not be hungry. In three years, every household will have surplus food."
"At the same time, we must also pay attention to criminal laws to restrain officials and people. In this way, corrupt officials can be avoided. At the same time, domestic security will be stable, people can live a stable life, and the national treasury can gradually be filled."
"The military also needs to undergo rigorous training, update equipment, and be ready to respond to attacks from the Sirius Kingdom."
"In this way, even if the Sirius Kingdom's army presses on the border, we can still resist it."
Lin Xiaofan spoke.
After hearing this, most people in the court were convinced that Lin Xiaofan really wanted to resign and retire.
"Liu Lieutenant Lin, you must not do this! If you resign and retire, it will be a great loss for me."
Seeing Lin Xiaofan's decisive attitude, Kang Hong stood up anxiously, looked at Shen Jing aside, and became even more angry. He waved his hand and said:
"Put Shen Jing into prison, interrogate him severely, and deal with him severely!"
A member of the Shen family actually made Lin Xiaofan want to resign and retire.
Hearing this, Shen Jing's legs softened and she fell to her knees accidentally.
He never expected that he was so well prepared that even Kang Xi was invited, but he still couldn't keep his official position.
Once he is imprisoned, he will become a complete useless person when he comes out again.
"Your Majesty, if you give me another chance, I will never make this mistake again. Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Shen Jing kowtowed several times, but Kang Hong no longer wanted to pay attention to him and just let him be dragged away.
Seeing this, Shen Jing looked at Kang Xi again and said:
"The chariot chief, Lord Kangxi!"
But at this time, Kang Xi's face was ashen and he had no intention of helping.
After all, Shen Jing is just a chess piece. When it's no longer useful, just throw it away.
What he cares more about now is Lin Xiaofan.
To be honest, after Lin Xiaofan's actions, he probably already understood in his heart that he had missed Lin Xiaofan.
If you think about it carefully, if it were not for Lin Xiaofan, Daqian might have perished.
If the other party wanted to rebel, they could have led the Qingzhou Army and Yantian Army to rebel yesterday before Jianfeng and Jianbai left.
Even if he cared, he would be in chaos. With the initiative in his own hands, he didn't observe it for a few more days.
When things developed to this point, he also entered a dilemma.
He didn't want Lin Xiaofan to be fired, and at the same time he couldn't bear to beg Lin Xiaofan.
"Your Majesty, I have made my decision and I will retire."
Lin Xiaofan saluted, took off his official hat, and turned around to leave without any hesitation.
Duanmu Liangchuan thought for a long time, and finally stopped the ministers who wanted to persuade him with his eyes.
Kang Hong froze in place. Seeing Lin Xiaofan walking further and further away, he stopped where he was and sighed heavily.
Following Lin Xiaofan's departure, Kang Hong absentmindedly ended the morning court and then went directly to the harem.
"Meet the Queen Mother."
Kang Hong looked at the Queen Mother in front of him, his face full of confusion, and he asked eagerly:
"Mother, Taiwei Lin just helped to get rid of foreign enemies, why did you drive him away? By doing this, didn't you chill the hearts of Daqian people!"
Now his emotions were a little out of control, and he couldn't help but speak a little louder when facing his mother, whom he usually respected.
