Ji Zhuo is a minister whom His Majesty has carefully cultivated and relied upon, so naturally His Majesty hopes that he can consider the overall situation and not act impulsively like this again. However, it seems that there is no other way at present.
"Then you take care of Miss Lin for now. Changqing and I will go and see if General Xie has hunted a brown bear today. That old fellow is always bragging. He's so old, yet he still thinks about hunting brown bears."
After His Majesty finished speaking, he raised his hand and gently patted Ji Zhuo's shoulder, who was still arguing with him, before walking forward.
