805 tael imperial edicts

As the time arrived, the grand doors of Chongde Hall opened, and everyone entered in order of their official ranks, each taking their place.

Just moments ago, there had been a buzz of conversation outside the hall.

Lately, too many issues had accumulated, so today's court meeting was bound to be particularly busy.

Crown Prince Wei Jiuzhong had declared himself ill today and did not attend the early morning court.

Everyone knew it was wise not to come; coming would have meant suffering humiliation for no reason.

Although there was hardly any conversation within the great hall, many were frantically exchanging glances.

And occasionally, some would assess Prince Fu, who appeared relaxed.

Everyone could guess that Prince Fu might face troubles today, yet why did he still seem so at ease, as if he didn't care about any of it?

Or perhaps, did he have some leverage that gave him such confidence?

Wei Jin also glanced at Wei Ya several times.

He was way too relaxed.
