Male supporting role is not a stepping stone

"Your Majesty, you don't have to go to court anymore. You can eat whatever you want, play whatever you want, sleep whenever you want, and do whatever you want. Isn't that good?" Yang Yan asked in confusion.

Fang Jialong: "..."

It sounds like a very happy life, but what the hell!

"Are you planning to sideline me?" He looked as if he had seen through your conspiracy.

"Your Majesty, you can say that," Yang Yan was still so frank that he was infuriating. "Who told you that you don't have the ability to handle the government? As a minister, I have to work harder."

This time, even the old men who had protected the emperor before were silent. After some discussion, they actually thought that this was good. At least they didn't have to worry about encountering an absurd emperor in the future and ruining the whole country.

The new emperor had a reputation for incompetence. In less than ten days, the ministers could see that he was not wronged. And judging from his behavior, he might be the absurd emperor they were worried about!

"You, you..." Fang Jialong was so angry that he couldn't speak again.

"If your majesty doesn't want to be idle, we can also reserve a position for you in the department and give you a vote!" Yang Yan said very generously.

Fang Jialong's face turned blue, but no one cared about him at this time.

The only person who shared the same fate with him was probably the Minister of Personnel Yu Qing. As the fuse of this incident, he was in a state of confusion.

The emperor supports me, so good! Damn! Prince Ning is so tough! It's over, it's over, everyone is on the side of Prince Ning, this time it's dead...

His mentality changed like this, anyway, he was happy for less than ten seconds, and the rest was all panic and fear. He knew that whether Prince Ning rebelled today or formed a new department as he proposed, he would not have a good end.

Yu Qing kept winking at the people around him, but those who had promised to stand on the same front with him last night were now like dumb and no one spoke for him.

At this point, he was finally completely desperate. At this moment, he really hated his eldest son. If he hadn't run to provoke King Ning, how could he have ended up like this?

A new department that makes decisions on important court affairs! If he hadn't been pulled out by King Ning as an example, maybe he could have participated in it and become a member. In the future, he would have the power of the emperor, although it was only a few points or even a few tens of points, but it was also a step up.

Unfortunately, after today, he couldn't even keep his current power, and he might even lose his life. How could he give birth to such a son who betrayed his father?

Only the emperor opposed it. With the approval or acquiescence of all the court officials, this department named the cabinet, which was specially responsible for handling national affairs, was successfully established.

There are currently 20 cabinet members. As the proposer, Yang Yan served as the elder and also won a place for his military advisor Wu Xingwen.

No one was ignorant enough to accuse him of abusing his power for personal gain. After all, the one who holds the military power is the boss. While he was in control of the overall situation, he actually dispersed the power in his hands. He was really very kind. No one present could do it like him.

The new emperor Fang Jialong finally accepted Yang Yan's proposal very aggrievedly and got a vote. He was not completely excluded. So in fact, the cabinet had a total of 21 votes, which completely avoided the situation of a tie when voting was needed.

And the Minister of Personnel Yu Qing, as he had expected, became the first person to be dealt with by the cabinet after everyone had discussed it.

Accepting bribes and abusing power for personal gain, I am afraid that half of the people present have secretly done it, but who told him to be so blind that he bumped into the gun of King Ning?

The cabinet unanimously voted to deal with him for the first time when it exercised power. Dismissal was inevitable. As for other punishments, it would take the Dali Temple to decide after the trial. In short, with the evidence in Yang Yan's hands, a sentence of 20 to 30 years would be light, and exile of the whole family would basically be his fate.

Yu Qing himself was familiar with the Dalin law and knew what was going on. For a moment, the whole person seemed to have aged ten years. He collapsed on the ground and was dragged away by Yang Yan's men after stripping off his official uniform.

Emperor Fang Jialong also voted in favor. First, he was angry. If he hadn't confronted Prince Ning, maybe there would be no such thing today! He wouldn't have lost the power in his hands and become a puppet-like existence.

Second, he was a little scared. In order to suppress Prince Ning, he deliberately ignored the evidence he presented, and was said to be incompetent and deprived of his right to rule. If he still behaved so confused about right and wrong, would Prince Ning simply abolish him?

According to the current situation, if King Ning really did it, I'm afraid there would be no one to speak for him. Although he might have to be a frustrated puppet emperor in the future, a puppet emperor is still an emperor!

No matter what, these ministers still have to flatter and respect him at least on the surface, and his reputation is here. After King Ning relaxes his vigilance, he can quietly contact other generals with heavy troops, and there may be a chance to turn things around.

While he was calculating in his mind, Yang Yan suddenly spoke again: "Half of the adults in the court are not young anymore, and it is too difficult to kneel down every time."

"This king suggests that you only need to bow to greet His Majesty in the future. Respect is in your heart. We don't need to care about the surface situation. What do you think?"

This Prince Ning, he didn't even intend to leave him the superficial respectability!

Fang Jialong's breathing was short of breath, and he looked at him with eyes that he wanted to pounce on him and bite him to death.

Fortunately, this proposal was not adopted by everyone. They were educated since childhood that the emperor's power was greater than heaven. Although they have now joined forces to seize the power in the hands of the emperor, they still have a habitual respect for him.

Yang Yan didn't force it. Anyway, as the power of the ministers increased and the power of the emperor decreased, the respect would naturally disappear slowly. When he saw him again, he would learn it without him saying anything.

However, although this point was not passed, his proposal to sit down to discuss matters in the future was quickly accepted by everyone. After all, no one is a masochist. Why not do it if it can make yourself feel better?

After the discussion, everyone stepped out of the palace with some frivolous steps. Regarding the changes in the court, they unanimously did not spread the matter. In the eyes of people outside the court, the court was no different from before.

The emperor was still so high and mighty, but only they knew that he would become a mascot in the future, worshipped and praised, but without any real power.

When the court was secretly changing, the fourth prince who had been imprisoned in the prison for several days was finally released. No, there would be no fourth prince in the world in the future. The new emperor had decreed that he would be demoted to a commoner. In the future, there would only be Fang Jiarong.

Fang Jiarong did not feel happy to see the light of day again, but looked at the sky in confusion, a little at a loss for a while.

From the eunuch who came to deliver the decree, he had learned that his father had a stroke and could only lie in bed for the rest of his life, and his idiot brother was about to ascend the throne and become the new emperor.

He didn't understand how things would develop like this. When he was first imprisoned in the prison by his eldest brother, he was still full of confidence, thinking that he would not stay in there for long, and that he would be released as soon as his father woke up.

But he waited for seven or eight days but there was no news. He gradually became anxious from his calmness at the beginning. He kept guessing what happened. Sometimes he couldn't help but think, could it be that his father was afraid of the military power in Sheng Yangyan's hands and gave up on him as a son?

These days were like a year for Fang Jiarong. He had countless speculations in his mind, but he could never have imagined that the final result would be like this!

His father was actually ill and couldn't get up. His elder brother also pushed the blame on him, saying that he was angry and sick. His father directly deprived him of his status as a prince and expelled him from the capital.

What else could he do without his status as a prince? Fang Jiarong felt a panic. As a prince born to an unfavored concubine, he knew best how realistic this world was.

Although he was more favored by his father than his elder brother, the eldest son, he actually won all these after years of hard work. He never forgot the days when even the eunuchs could bully him when he was young.

Now he was beaten back to his original state, even worse than before. After all, the previous emperor was his biological father, at least he had a chance to fight for it, but the current emperor was his brother, how could he have a chance to stand out?

When he was in glory, there were naturally many people around him. Now that he was down and out, he knew that most of those people would change their faces without any need to verify. Would he have to go back to that kind of precarious life?

Fang Jiarong was panicked, and suddenly remembered that he was not without anything. He still had the princess, and they still had children.

The princess came from the Zhang family, an aristocratic family. After they got married, her family naturally stood on his side. Now that he was in trouble, it would inevitably affect her family. If they wanted to keep their current power and status, or even go further, they could only rely on themselves to get back on their feet.

So he could go to the Zhang family and ask them to help him plan to drive his eldest brother off the stage and ascend the throne himself. He didn't believe that he would be unable to defeat that idiot with his own ability!

With an idea in mind, Fang Jiarong immediately planned to return to his own prince's mansion. Now that he had been demoted to a commoner, it was naturally impossible for him to wear his former luxurious clothes and expensive accessories. He had no money and had to walk.

At this time, he was thinking about how to turn things around, and completely forgot about his lover who was imprisoned with him. Not long after, Jiang Ruxue, who was also released, stood at the prison door in a trance.
