Chapter 380: Dark Currents Abound
# 380. Dark Currents Abound
Prime Minister Wang cupped his hands towards the assembled officials and followed the old eunuch into the palace, walking all the way to the side hall of the imperial study.
The old eunuch instructed a servant to serve tea and respectfully said, “Prime Minister sir, please wait a moment.”
With that, he left.
Prime Minister Wang sat alone on the chair, and waited for a whole hour.
He showed no impatience, waiting silently. Clad in his crimson robe and high hat, his temples were streaked with white.
His expression remained calm, betraying no emotion. Yet the occasional flicker of distraction in his eyes revealed that the elderly man’s feelings were not as composed as they seemed.
At last, footsteps echoed in the corridor.
Prime Minister Wang’s slightly clouded eyes lit up faintly as he turned towards the doorway.
