"No problem, in that case, I'll come back another day."
Gu Ruozhao held the book in his arms. He concealed the gloom that had passed through his eyes, and no special emotion could be seen on his face.
He came here today because of a border matter.
Since Fei Wan agreed, he has been writing relevant countermeasures overnight in the past few days, not only to reinforce the soldiers, but also to benefit the border.
But he never expected to hear such remarks about him here. He had heard such accusations against him countless times.
What on earth was he expecting...
Rather than staying here and humiliating myself by listening to her echo the words of the Regent, it would be better to leave.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister..."
Wutong whispered to try to keep him.
At this moment, the crisp sound of broken utensils came from inside.
Gu Ruozhao looked over in surprise, and Wutong didn't care about anything and rushed in with the guards at the door.
There were broken pieces of teacups scattered around Feng Jinlin and Fei Wan. Feng Jinlin's face was ashen, as if he had heard something unbelievable.
Wutong half-knelt in front of Feiwan.
"Your Majesty...but what happened? What do you need from me?"
"Nothing, just bring another set of tea. The Regent was just careless and didn't notice it."
Fei Wan turned her head, her expression gentle. She was slightly surprised to see Gu Ruozhao standing outside the hall, but her gaze only paused for a moment before she looked away.
Wutong quickly brought the tea set. Wutong originally wanted to pour tea for Feng Jinlin as before, but Fei Wan took the tea set and poured a cup of tea for Feng Jinlin himself.
Fei Wan handed the teacup over and smiled, "Prince Regent, this time, hold it firmly."
This seemed to be hinting at something. Feng Jinlin's face turned pale. She took the tea tremblingly and drank it in one gulp under Fei Wan's gaze, without caring whether there was any problem.
"I'll take my leave."
Feng Jinlin no longer had the arrogant attitude she had when she came before. Now she had lost her previous pride and instead looked a little embarrassed.
Fei Wan did not stop her. Feng Jinlin left in a hurry without even noticing Gu Ruozhao who was outside the hall.
Wutong found it hard to believe that the usually arrogant Regent would become like this, but she also knew that there were some things she shouldn't ask too much about, so she said softly, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has been waiting outside for a long time."
Fei Wan had already seen Gu Ruozhao, but was too late to take care of him at that time.
Fei Wan had not expected that sentence to be so powerful.
She had sorted out the various forces in the court these days and vaguely discovered that something was amiss. She was just trying to trick them, but ended up tricking them out of something.
Although Feng Jinlin possessed such great power, he did not seek to usurp the throne when the late emperor was alive, and he was not so presumptuous in front of the late emperor. It was more like a check and balance between the two.
When the late emperor was alive, he placed more hopes on the eldest princess, but Feng Jinlin did not choose to help the eldest princess, but chose to help Fei Wan.
First, it's easy to control, and second... I'm afraid they're afraid the late emperor will tell the eldest princess something, so they're taking preemptive action.
So now... Feng Jinlin probably thought Fei Wan really had something on her.
But Feng Jinlin was just panicked for a moment and would definitely check it out later.
Fei Wan changed his previous fierce aura and his eyes softened when he saw Gu Ruozhao.
"My dear, what brings you here?"
The change of expression was so quick that Wutong was shocked.
Your Majesty...when did your attitude towards the Prime Minister become so gentle?
