The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

The chief minister of the cabinet, Wang Yi, has always had a bad reputation.

As early as the reign of the cruel and merciless Emperor Long, Wang Yi had been scolded by countless people.

They scolded him for being servile and fawning; they scolded him for having no literati integrity and losing the character of literati.

The reason was that Emperor Long was not benevolent, was extremely licentious, and built a large palace, making life miserable for the people.

When all the loyal ministers and good generals were denouncing Emperor Long, it was this powerful prime minister who was helping him to commit atrocities.

It can be said that Wang Yi has been a lonely man for a long time. All his family members and children have cut off all contact with him and are unwilling to associate with him.

After Emperor Long passed away, everyone thought that Wang Yi would fall from power. But the Queen Mother still valued him and he still held the position of Prime Minister of the Cabinet without any hesitation.

It is no exaggeration to say that the officials and common people who hoped for his resignation could line up from East Street to West Street.

But he is still himself, flattering the Queen Mother and Emperor Heng.

Wang Yi once made a daily schedule for Emperor Heng. He would attend court eight days a month, and spend the rest of the time studying in the Wenliang Hall.

He also selected talents from the Hanlin Academy to compile a textbook for Emperor Heng on how to govern the country. With pictures and texts, it guides Emperor Heng in an easy-to-understand way on how to be a good emperor.

The textbook was called "The Emperor's Heart of Ten Thousand Miles" and was a special textbook tailor-made for Emperor Heng.

Wang Yi personally went to Queshan to invite Taifu Wu Xianwen.

At the time, Wu Xianwen even joked, "If I had known that you had such a bad reputation, I would never have followed you out to be scolded."

That’s right, because Wu Xianwen was personally invited out of retirement by Wang Yi, he was also scolded harshly.

Cen Yuan offered him a seat and said calmly, "During the reign of Emperor Long, Lord Wang saved the lives of General Huo Wu and his family. However, General Huo did not appreciate it and broke off relations with Lord Wang..."

He then recounted a few things he knew.

Emperor Long's Grand Palace was extremely extravagant, and the censor Yang Zhijing made a remonstrance with his life, causing blood to splatter in the Golden Throne Hall.

After Lord Yang died, Emperor Long was furious with his family and ordered the execution of all nine clans. It was Wang Yi who tried his best to offer suggestions to build a more magnificent palace and persuaded him to withdraw his order.

His reason was that he was worried that the ghost of Lord Yang's family would affect the fortune and feng shui of the palace.

Emperor Long accepted this statement and was very satisfied with him, so he agreed.

Lord Yang's family of nine clans and 389 people were saved by Wang Yi.

But no one knew the merits of this Prime Minister. All they knew was that because of Wang Yi's suggestion, the palace spent tens of thousands of silver taels more on enjoying the ultimate pleasure.

Lord Yang's family was exiled to Yanzhou. The people of Yanzhou only knew that Lord Yang gave advice at the cost of his life and died heroically; while the prime minister in the capital used sweet words to please the emperor and gain benefits from it.

I sigh at the fickleness of the world and lament the injustice of the world. Why do good people not get good rewards in this world, while treacherous officials like Wang Yi are rampant, which is really a disaster that will last for thousands of years.

There were five, six, seven or eight similar incidents, and dozens or even hundreds of smaller ones. Cen Yuan described the whole thing in a simple and unhurried manner, and Wu Xianwen was shocked.

Even he didn't know that his good friend Wang Yi had secretly done so many things and saved so many people. He only knew that his good friend was not a treacherous official who had committed heinous crimes as others said on the surface, but he didn't know the truth was actually like this.

Not only that, after Emperor Heng died, Liang State changed its dynasty. Not long after, Lord Wang, the chief minister of the cabinet, went to court as usual, surrendered to Emperor Yong, and was even highly valued by Emperor Yong for many years.

He has been the prime minister of the cabinet in every dynasty and is simply a legendary figure.

During these ten years, Lord Wang has quietly protected many loyal ministers and generals in his own way.

Even though these loyal generals did not understand him, were unwilling to associate with him, and even despised him and plotted against him... he still balanced the various forces in the court in his position.

If it weren't for him, Emperor Yong would not have been able to pacify Liang State so quickly, and perhaps people from all over the country would have risen up in rebellion under the guise of Emperor Heng.

It is the world that is in chaos; it is the people who suffer.

The Prime Minister single-handedly turned the tide and calmed the aftermath.

The emperor changes with time, but the cabinet chief minister Wang Yi is always the same. Lord Wang Yi was so shocked that he didn't know what to do. "Your Majesty, how do you know all this?"

Cen Yuan smiled and said, "I was fortunate enough to see the book that Lord Wang left under the locust tree in his hometown."

In fact, this is a lie.

When Cen Yuan traveled through time from the modern era, Emperor Heng had just fled in a hurry as Qin Mian, and had never actually met the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

But he had taken over all of Emperor Heng's memories, and he knew this kind of person.

Later, when General Weibei escaped and returned to Liang State and ascended the throne again as Emperor Heng, Lord Wang had already passed away.

His descendants found his recorded list and manuscripts under the locust tree in his hometown and presented them to Emperor Heng, Cen Yuan.

It is recorded above that Lord Wang devoted his entire life to protecting the country and saving loyal ministers and generals.

The manuscript said that he was worthy of himself, worthy of the State of Liang, and worthy of every emperor.

However, I feel guilty towards his family.

His family was ashamed because of him, so they lived a hard life in hiding.

His son was killed by the general he had saved.

His granddaughter was kidnapped and killed by a teenager whom he had saved from a knife point in a busy city.

At the end of the manuscript, Lord Wang wrote: If someone asks me if I regret it, I want to be an ordinary citizen in my next life, do some small business, eat three meals a day, and that's enough.

This answer shows that he regrets it.

He is also a human being, with a kind heart.

He could bear having his heart stabbed by the enemy, but he could not accept that the person he had saved with all his heart and soul turned around and swung the knife at his children and grandchildren.

Several times later, Lord Wang vowed not to meddle in other people's affairs anymore.

But as long as it happened before his eyes, Lord Wang couldn't help it and silently saved one person after another, one family after another.

People only think that he is a servile and spineless treacherous minister, but they don't know that beneath the flattery, he has a strong character.

Once Emperor Heng made the manuscript of the Prime Minister public, it caused a huge uproar.

The world has just realized that what you see with your eyes is not necessarily the truth. They have wrongly accused the Prime Minister.

Many officials cried bitterly over this, but it was too late.

At that time, the Prime Minister passed away with regret, and the reason for his death was that he was poisoned.

The person who poisoned the food, on the third day after learning the truth, also swallowed the same poison and died of hatred.

Cen Yuan was unable to tell the real reason why she knew everything about Lord Wang, so she could only blame it on the manuscript.

Sure enough, Lord Wang believed it without a doubt, "You, you actually saw the manuscript that was only written in two volumes..."

That’s right, at this point in time, there are indeed only two volumes.

Cen Yuan said, "Most of the old ministers of the old dynasty were imprisoned with their families because they refused to submit, and some even faced beheading and extermination. It was Lord Wang who intervened and saved many lives. They received your favor, but they didn't know that you were the one who saved them. Lord Wang, I am grateful to you for those old ministers."

Lord Wang had never made any excuses in his life, but at this moment he cried like a baby.

Emperor Heng understood him, his little emperor really understood him...
