"Wenhu, do you think I'm a greedy person, that I'm blinded by money?"

"I had no such intention!" Wen Hu immediately knelt down.

"How much silver haven't I seen? Why would I be greedy for money?"

Yuan Xiu walked to Wei You's side, took back the letter, and said, "This is a personal letter from the Right Chancellor to me. The Right Chancellor said that since the court has dismissed the Left Chancellor, there is no need for him to exist as the Right Chancellor. Now that the borders are at peace and the Champion King and General Wang are stationed in the north and south, the court has no need for him. He is old, and even if I need him, he is no longer of use."

Wen Hu realized what was happening and exclaimed in surprise, "The Right Chancellor wants to resign?"

Yuan Xiu smiled, patted Wen Hu on the shoulder, and said, "The Right Chancellor has already taken this stance. If I were to force him to send his son here, wouldn't that make me seem petty? Now you understand, the reason I don't care whether Zhao Zhan comes or not is not because of this money."

Upon hearing this, Wen Hu became even more vigilant.

By sending silver and resigning as prime minister, he was trying to completely appease the emperor.

"His Majesty!"

"Stop talking, you're irritating me." Yuan Xiu's voice was a little colder. He said, "If Princess Qingling has been granted a title, so be it. Consider it compensation for Chen Ke. Let him stay in the princess's residence for now, and we'll find her another suitable husband in the future."

Wen Hu knew that Zhao Zhan's matter was beyond redemption, but he was still unwilling to give up and said, "Your Majesty, I am referring to Wang Yucen!"

"Since the Right Chancellor has resigned, it's fine that Zhao Zhan doesn't come."

"But I've heard that Wang Yucen and Zhao Zhan are deeply in love, so she can't not come!"

Yuan Xiu was suddenly taken aback.
