He deliberately made up excuses to avoid the issue.
However, the Ninth Chief Steward could not say anything, and could only say, "I think His Majesty should be able to understand the Grand Chief Steward."
He paused for a moment, then said, “By imperial decree, Guo Feng’s punishment is over and he is to be released immediately. Although Qin Tian is guilty, in consideration of his merit in taking the initiative to fight the traitor Guo Kang, you are to be released temporarily, under the supervision of Guo Feng. If you behave well and achieve further merits, you will be free! So be it!”
"What?"
The chief steward's expression changed.
Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, surprised that the Empress had sent him to oversee Qin Tian. What was the meaning behind this?
Could it be—
The Empress summoned Guo Feng to the Prison Punishment Department not to give Mo Daoqing face.
Instead, they deliberately made him take the blame, causing him to clash head-on with the Grand Steward and the Third Prince's brother-in-law.
To restrain some of the forces opposing her?
Very likely!
"The Empress has some impressive methods! No wonder she became the Empress of the Yan Yang Empire, amazing!"
He figured this out, and although he had been tricked, he wasn't too angry.
Because the Empress and he were not familiar with each other at all, and might even be enemies.
We're just using each other.

Guo Feng nodded calmly.
Qin Tian also said, "Your subject obeys the decree."
"Um."
The Ninth Chief Eunuch smiled and then looked at the First Chief Eunuch beside him. "First Chief Eunuch, since things have come to this, how about we return to the palace together?"
"good!"
The head steward responded and looked coldly at Guo Feng, "Young Master Guo, we'll meet again someday."
As he spoke, he picked up the old man who had been slashed by Guo Feng and was bleeding profusely, and left with the Ninth Steward.
Guo Feng waved his hand and said to Situ Rui, "Warden of the prison, release my nineteenth senior brother."
"yes."
After watching the spectacle, Situ Rui did not hesitate at all and personally removed Qin Tian's God-Locking Hook, releasing Qin Tian.
Guo Feng didn't say much, but led Qin Tian out.
Qin Tian walked behind Guo Feng, thought for a moment, and said, "Guo Feng, give me back that box!"
"What's the meaning?"
Guo Feng turned around and raised an eyebrow.
