Chapter 1504: Visiting Relatives

He Yi looked at him and whispered, "Your Majesty, are you suddenly asking about this person? Are you worried that the mastermind behind this Xia Nongsheng might be the same person behind Han Guangqi?"

“…”

Zhu Feng was silent for a while, then said, "We'll talk again once we have evidence."

"yes."

"Pass the order down and have your people hurry up and find evidence as soon as possible."

"I understand."

After saying this, the king and his ministers quieted down again, sat back in their seats, and began to deal with the government affairs that had piled up over the past two days.

Time passes by little by little.

After five o'clock in the morning, they finally finished reviewing the pile of memorials on the imperial desk. The two of them also discussed the strategy for providing relief to the victims. Seeing that it was getting late, they ate something and each lay down on the table for a nap.

Zhu Feng had just a good sleep and was in a daze, listening to a very soft voice beside his ear.

I opened my eyes and saw the morning light reflected on the window.

On the other side, He Yi had already woken up. Eunuch Yu was carefully helping him drink tea and rinse his mouth. He asked softly, "Several cabinet ministers are already waiting in the classroom. Lord He Yi, what do you think of today's cabinet meeting—"

He Yi pondered for a moment and said, "The Emperor has been up all night, so let him rest a little more."

Eunuch Yu immediately said, "This servant thinks so too."

"oh?"

"I'm afraid the emperor didn't sleep much yesterday."

"Um."

The two had just come to an agreement when they heard Zhu Feng's cold voice: "Who told you that I didn't get much sleep last night?"

The two of them turned around hurriedly and saw Zhu Feng slowly raising his head.

Eunuch Yu was so frightened that he hurried over to serve.

He Yi stood up and walked in front of him, saying, "Too much has happened in the past two days. Your Majesty is overly worried and cannot work any more. Should we go back to the palace and get some sleep first?"

"No need."

Zhu Feng asked Eunuch Yu to fetch a basin of cold water to wash his face and sober up, then said, "Call them all over and tell them what we discussed last night. The relief work for the disaster victims cannot be delayed and must be done immediately."

"yes."

So, Xiao Shunzi, who was guarding the door, ran over immediately.

After a while, several cabinet ministers arrived.

Because the emperor and the prime minister had almost finished discussing the matter, Gu Tingqiu and others simply added some opinions and then distributed all the reviewed documents to the various departments for execution.

After finishing a few things, it was already bright outside.

Zhu Feng turned his stiff neck and said, "You all have worked hard."

Several cabinet ministers immediately stood before him and bowed, saying, "We dare not."

Zhu Feng nodded, picked up the remaining unimportant documents and looked at them, then said, "There's nothing else to do right now. You all can go down and do your own things."

Generally speaking, after saying this, everyone should leave.

But just as He Yi and the others were about to bow and prepare to leave, Gu Tingqiu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for your permission."

Zhu Feng glanced at him and said, "Gu Aiqing, what do you want?"

Everyone was looking at him.

Gu Tingqiu knelt down and said, "Your Highness has been accompanying the Emperor in the palace for many years. This New Year's Eve, I would like to invite Your Highness to return home to visit your family. I beg Your Majesty for permission."

Visiting relatives?

Upon hearing these two words, Zhu Feng's expression changed slightly.
