"Your Majesty, the crowd is reacting strongly. Most of the ordinary cultivators are cursing an old man who says Mr. Ye's words are unreasonable. That old man seems to be from the Qin family," Xiao Guizi said with a smile.
"Great, great!" Lin Xuanye slapped his thigh excitedly. "A teacher is a teacher indeed. He actually found such a good opportunity."
"Your Majesty, this could cause a major problem. Mr. Ye may face serious repercussions," said Xiao Guizi.
"It's alright," Lin Xuanye said. "After the league ends, I will work with my teacher to establish the Ancestral Dragon Palace. Once the Ancestral Dragon Palace is established, it will surely attract many ambitious people to join. In addition, with my deterrent power, any force that wants to touch my teacher will have to think twice."
"Xuan Ye, your reform is no small matter. It will have far-reaching consequences. Once you decide to do it, you must be prepared to fight to the death." The Imperial Tutor's gaze was fixed on the match, but she spoke with a smile to Lin Xuan Ye.
Lin Xuanye nodded slightly and said, "Mother, you're here, aren't you? You certainly won't just stand by and watch your teacher get into trouble."
"You little rascal are quite clever. If you want to do it, then go for it. Your mother will do her best to help you. I remember I said that I wanted to join that Ancestral Dragon Palace that Ye Qiu established. As long as you can really establish it, I will keep my promise." Imperial Tutor Yin made a promise.
"Yes, thank you, Mother."
Lin Xuanye felt much more at ease.

This is undoubtedly an attempt to disrupt the court. I strongly suggest that he be arrested and imprisoned. We must not take this lightly."
"Oh?" Lin Xuanye asked in surprise, "Prime Minister Qin came for this matter?"
"Yes," said Prime Minister Qin. "As the Prime Minister of the Great Dragon, I am worried that the situation will change because of Ye Qiu. I implore Your Majesty to consider the overall situation."
"Prime Minister Qin is overthinking this. If we're going to arrest someone, now's not the time. The competitions in both the civil and military divisions are in full swing right now. We'll deal with this matter after the leagues are over. I will definitely handle it seriously," Lin Xuanye said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, in that case, this old minister shall first send someone to keep an eye on Ye Qiu?"
"Don't alert them, Prime Minister Qin. Give the order to everyone to be quiet. Anyone who dares to cause trouble at this critical juncture will be stripped of their title. I mean what I say. Now, step down," Lin Xuanye said immediately.
"As you command."
After bowing respectfully, Prime Minister Qin slowly withdrew.
Lin Xuanye clenched his fists secretly. He hadn't expected that the Prime Minister Qin, whom he had always respected, would be the first person to want to kill his teacher...
