Chief Wang cupped his hands at the officials and followed the old eunuch into the palace, all the way to the side hall of the Imperial study.
The old eunuch ordered the eunuch to serve tea and respectfully said, “”Lord first assistant, please wait a moment.”
After that, he left.
Chief advisor Wang sat on the chair alone and waited for an hour.
He was not in a hurry and waited in silence. He was wearing a red robe, a tall hat, and his hair was white.
His expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. However, the occasional dazed look in his eyes made one realize that the old man’s mood was not as good as it seemed.
Finally, he heard footsteps.
Chief advisor Wang’s slightly cloudy eyes brightened slightly as he looked at the door.
An old eunuch wearing a Python robe came in alone with a horsetail whisk in his arm. He said regretfully, ” Lord Chief Assistant, His Majesty is in
unDearaD1e grier. He nas lost ms manners ancl will not see you.
The light in chief advisor Wang’s eyes dimmed bit by bit.
The old eunuch sighed. His Majesty needs time to calm down. You know that
King Huai is his younger brother. His Majesty has been close to King Huai since he was a child. Now that he’s gone all of a sudden …”
Chief advisor Wang nodded dumbly, cupped his hands, and left the side hall of the Imperial study.
As he walked down the steps, chief advisor Wang couldn’t help but come back to his senses. He bowed deeply to the Imperial study.
He then strode away and didn’t even look back.
As chief advisor Wang left, the old eunuch heaved a sigh of relief. He was a little afraid of Wang zhenwen’s gaze, which was full of disappointment.
He passed through the Imperial study and entered the palace. He bowed and said, ‘”Your Majesty, the chief Assistant has returned.”
Emperor Yuan jing replied with an ” hmm ” and closed his eyes to rest.”Who are the people gathered at the palace gate?”
“Those who should be here are here,” the old eunuch said in a deep voice.
Emperor Yuan jing snorted coldly and said, “I knew it. These dogs are always biting each other. Half of it is an act.” Hateful, detestable, he should be killed!”
After being angry for a while, he regained his calm and asked, “”Has the Left Censor-in -Chief, Yuan Xiong, arrived?”
“I don’t think so.” The old eunuch shook his head after some thought.
Emperor Yuan jing closed his eyes again. After a long silence, when the old eunuch thought that the matter was over, he suddenly heard Emperor Yuan jing say, ‘
“Note down the people who didn’t come today, and do the same for the next few days.”
“Yes!”
At dusk, in the Golden-red afterglow.
