Book 4: Chapter 59: Shocking! The Emperor actually targeted Wang Anye?
……
"Your Majesty, please don't overestimate this old servant. I don't have such abilities," Old Yao said with a pained expression. "I'll send someone to deliver the message right away."
With that, Old Yao dared not say more and quickly retreated.
"This old fellow is getting more cunning with age, always siding with Commandery Prince An's lackeys. He must have taken a lot of money from them," Emperor Longchang complained openly, then turned to Wu Zhixing and Wu Xue'ning. "Tell your Commandery Prince Kang to learn well. Old Yao is my confidant. A little push at a critical moment can benefit him immensely."
Wu Zhixing wiped a drop of cold sweat from his brow.
Though the logic was sound, was it appropriate for His Majesty, the Emperor, to say such things?
His interactions with the Emperor were limited, mostly in formal settings, and the Emperor had always left him with an impression of solemnity and majesty. He found it hard to adapt to this side of the Emperor.
Wu Xue'ning, however, was unfazed, her lips curling slightly.
Firstly, she was long accustomed to the Ancestor's personality. Secondly, she wasn't close to Commandery Prince Kang, so it was none of her business.
