Chapter 5167: Back off

No one else spoke, and Wu Shangshu looked indifferent and said nothing.

He must have been unhappy when a third-grade minister was suddenly parachuted in to serve as his right-hand man. Moreover, Ye Wudao was still a member of the Sixth Princess and Ji Youlan.

Hearing this, Ye Wudao said coldly: "Wu Qingyan, I am your superior officer now. If you have any objections to me, report it to the Holy Master and provide evidence!"

"If there is no evidence, I will write a memorial to you!"

When Wu Qingyan mentioned the evidence, his face changed slightly. He knew that he could not produce any evidence at all, and his face suddenly turned red.

Seeing this, Wu Shangshu sighed inwardly. His son was still a little too abrupt. He wanted to ask Ye Wudao how much the land was rented for, just to avoid any trouble.

Now it seems that it was still too careless. Ye Wudao still wanted to use this matter to get Wu Qingyan down. He didn't have a good way to help Wu Qingyan now.

After thinking about it, Wu Shangshu said: "Secretary Zuo, there are many errands for the Ministry of Works. I can't control who you want to take part in, but the next task of the Ministry of Works is the top priority. You must handle it carefully."

Ye Wudao pointed to the two people from the Sixth Princess and said: "These two, it shouldn't be difficult for me to ask them to become my deputies, right?"

"You are Zuo Shilang, of course you have the right to appoint your own adjutants." Wu Shangshu said: "I still say that the errands of the Ministry of Industry are the most important. The former Zuo Shilang resigned for a year, and this year's tasks , all piled up on me.”

"Since you are here, I will hand over all these official matters to you."

Wu Shangshu seemed to be doing official business, but in fact Ye Wudao also saw that he wanted to hand over all the difficult things to Ye Wudao, so that Ye Wudao could deal with official matters every day.

In this case, how can you come up with ideas to 'share the worries' of the Holy One?

"My lord, please don't leave everything to me at once." Ye Wudao thought: "After all, I am new to the officialdom, and I don't know much about the affairs of the Ministry of Industry, so I'd better take my time."

"Then don't embarrass Qing Yan, time will give you time." Wu Shangshu made the condition.

"Let's see. If there is nothing else to do today, I will go down and prepare for my promotion." Ye Wudao smiled slightly.

"Yeah." Wu Shangshu agreed.

…

After leaving the government office of the Ministry of Industry, a large golden sedan suddenly drove towards Ye Wudao.

Ye Wudao was stunned and quickly got out of the way, but the guards beside the sedan chased after him with great enthusiasm.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

Ye Wudao said blankly: "You know that I am Zuo Shilang so quickly?"

The guard said respectfully: "Your Excellency, we are His Highness the Sixth Highness. Your Highness the Sixth Highness would like to ask you to go to the mansion to have a talk."

Good guy, Ye Wudao had just been promoted, and less than ten minutes after the imperial edict was issued, the Sixth Princess knew the news. This was obviously news that she knew in advance.

As the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, Ye Wudao's real power in the Ministry of Industry will naturally be much greater. Even Wu Shangshu will not be able to easily remove him.

It can be said that now Ye Wudao is like a needle, pricking the fifth prince's heart hard.

The fifth prince knew that he was now the Zuo Shilang and would definitely want to kill him and drive him out.

This is the grace of the Holy One. It can enable a person to achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven in one day, which is beyond the reach of others.

Ye Wudao naturally did not dare to sit on this sedan. This was obviously a test given to him by Ji Youlan. If he dared to sit on it, he would be too conceited.

The more times like this, the more important it is to stay calm.

So, Ye Wudao declined several times before getting on his sedan chair and rushing to the Sixth Princess's residence.

…

The Sixth Emperor's Mansion.

Ji Youlan is currently accompanying many ministers, drinking tea and chatting.

Someone came to report: "Your Highness, Mr. Ye did not ride in your sedan chair. We have sincerely invited him more than a dozen times, but he still chose to ride in his own sedan chair."

"I know, back off."
