Qiu Jianhan was fu somewhat out of sorts, his face had taken on a sour expression
He spoke with a long face, ”Why do I feel that this old official does not really understand Your Majesty’s words? Your Majesty is at the pri worn and distressed due to worrying about the empire’s affairs, but ould you feel helpless?”
The erimly, ”Of late, I have been listless, and inso’s eyes were directed at the spot between His Majesty’s brows
Why did His Majesty keep on rubbing at that particular spot?
How could he not know that the oldhim?
It seemed that the emperor was so dismissive of his affairs recently so much so that as astute and quick-witted as he was, he could not fatho of the old marshal’s question
He did not even notice the tone the ; even worse, he failed to observe Qiu Jianhan’s despondent expression
It was a peculiar situation indeed
Yun Yang coughed and asked in concern, ”I notice that Your Majesty has been rubbing at that area between your brows Is Your Majesty feeling a throbbing pain there?”
Qiu Jianhan turned his head i had mentioned
As on official, it was taboo to look at the emperor directly or on even at a parallel level; needless to say, it was even aze at the emperor’s lethal point The emperor’s closest officials were not exempted from this, but how could the old ht now?
He had noticed earlier that the e the spot between his brows far too often previously, but he had not been overly concerned about it After all, His Majesty had been having the habit for several years now
He had long forgotten when exactly it was that the emperor had picked up this practice
”Yes, I do feel a throbbing sensation around the center ofand am tempted to head to bed, but when I’ve laidof these affairs of state In the end, I gave up trying to sleep”

Qiu Jianhan understood the unspoken”Since this child is so filial, why not let hiree of filial piety”
The e an ordinary person could sier on; as ht mistake would be considered a heinous crime, a familial extinction catastrophe!
Qiu Jianhan’s words had undoubtedly brought about a certain degree of risk to hi the emperor to relent, he would definitely be pulled into the whirlpool if Yun Yang had ulterior motives; a nine familial extinction would be inevitable by then
”Yes, that would be a good idea” His Majesty put his hand down and closed his eyes tiredly, sitting relaxedly on the chair
Yun Yang positioned himself behind hiers at the emperor’s teic
Qiu Jianhan stood right in front of the pair, his entire body slightly tilted and ready to act; his eyes bored holes into Yun Yang’s hands
If Yun Yangh he trusted hi Yun Yang's hands at the e’s Endless Divine Art had only gone through the emperor’s meridians once but his expression had turned dark irew heavy as well, watching his expression When Yun Yang retracted his hands, the emperor had fallen into a deep slumber
Perhaps this was the one and only period of quality rest the head of the empire had experienced in many years
”How is he?” the old marshal asked nervously
