Chapter 71 Lonely and Empty

East Palace Study Room.

Ye Yiheng asked in a light voice, "How is the father of Miss Xu faring now?"

Jian Lecheng, who was sitting beside him, closed the book in his hands, "As per Your Highness's instructions, he has been transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Personnel and appointed as Assistant Minister."

"Very well."

"Very well?" Jian Lecheng said resentfully, "This old man prides himself on his promotion, and now he's more brazen than ever, not taking Your Highness into account and discussing with several other ministers about which Prince is most likely to become the next Crown Prince."

Ye Yiheng's face remained calm, "Do not stop him, what he says and does now will all turn to suffering in the future."

"Yes, Your Highness, I have already begun collecting evidence of his corruption and wrongdoing!"

"Good!"

At that moment, the door to the study was knocked.

Both men in the room looked towards the door in unison, only to see Song Guo stepping inside.
