Chapter 366 - 97: Calm Before the Storm! Panicking? Does Panicking Help?_2

Though I don’t know what Prince Jin, Yan Ze, is thinking, his mood might not be particularly good.

Since that day, there has been no more correspondence from Prince Jin, Yan Ze. I’m not sure if he’s truly given up and has resigned himself to being a leisurely prince.

"Long live the emperor! Long live! Long live, for ten thousand years!"

During the morning court assembly.

Sitting on the dragon throne was still Yan Shuzhu.

Although everyone didn’t understand why Yan Fuhai, upon returning, did not reclaim the throne.

This led many to speculate whether Yan Fuhai truly intended to pass the throne to Yan Shuzhu. For a while, the courtiers who were not in the know started guessing along these lines.

For a moment.

The voices during the morning court assembly were louder and more earnest than ever before.

"Your Majesty, I have a petition to submit!"

Unlike the trivial matters presented in the past.

These individuals began to talk about more important issues after presenting their petitions, and their demeanor was no longer perfunctory.

Hence.

These people are indeed ones swayed by the wind, going wherever it blows.

Seeing Yan Shuzhu about to truly ascend to the throne, they dared not show any past indifference, speaking more earnestly than ever.

As Yan Shuzhu on the dragon throne, it was clear he sensed this change as well.

How should I put it?

Previously, Yan Shuzhu aimed to be a qualified emperor, but due to such circumstances, he was forced into this position.

There were bound to be some peculiar feelings in his heart.

However, Yan Shuzhu managed to suppress these emotions excellently and began to seriously handle all the reports.

It has to be said.

Yan Shuzhu indeed has some talent and ability in this aspect.

Many people were amazed when they heard that Yan Shuzhu could handle such complex matters so orderly.

It was as if they were meeting Yan Shuzhu for the first time.

They really didn’t expect Yan Shuzhu to have such talent.

Why didn’t they notice this before?

Ah, yes.

Previously, because they unanimously considered Yan Shuzhu as a transitional, puppet emperor, they only reported inconsequential trivialities.

Although Yan Shuzhu managed to organize these well, nobody really cared because it was all minor stuff.

But now they realized.

Setting other things aside.

At least in handling these matters, Yan Shuzhu truly deserved the throne.

Perhaps, for this very reason, Yan Fuhai wanted to completely hand over the throne to Yan Shuzhu.

All of a sudden.

This made more people believe that Yan Fuhai had tested Yan Shuzhu’s abilities and genuinely wanted to pass the throne to him.

Feeling the atmosphere during the morning court session.

Ye Liuyun couldn’t help but smile, quietly standing among the crowd, having no intention of saying anything.

"Nothing’s happened, right?"

Standing to the side, Lei Zheng couldn’t help his curiosity and softly asked Ye Liuyun.

"Didn’t General Yue tell you all anything?"

Ye Liuyun looked over in surprise.

Being one of Yue Xiu’s men, General Yue would have surely said something to Lei Zheng.

"The General only told us to keep a low profile and act cautiously in the coming days, nothing more!"

Lei Zheng shook his head.

They surely would listen to Yue Xiu’s words.

But this curiosity was genuine.

They really wanted to know.

What exactly happened.

That made the old General arrange things this way.

"I see!"

However.

After hearing Yue Xiu’s words, Ye Liuyun knowingly nodded.

Yue Xiu probably didn’t want his subordinates involved in this affair. After all, Yue Xiu intended to avenge his youngest son; it was a personal vendetta, and Yue Xiu didn’t want others dragged in.

This old man is quite interesting.

It can only be said, worthy of being a general who expanded territories?

Speaking of which.

Not long ago, Yue Xiu also invited Ye Liuyun to his residence. It seems it is time to pay a visit and perhaps have a chat.

"No, what do you mean by ’I see,’ don’t suddenly go silent!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun’s look of sudden comprehension.

Lei Zheng was somewhat scratching his head.

You may have understood, but I still haven’t!

"Since the General doesn’t want you to know, he surely has his reasons. If I tell you, wouldn’t it waste the General’s good intentions?"

"This...

That’s indeed a fair point.

Lei Zheng was momentarily speechless, opening his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he remained silent.

It is evident.

The weight of General Yue Xiu in the hearts of the military officers is indeed significant.

"Don’t worry! Nothing will happen!"

Seeing Lei Zheng’s exceedingly conflicted expression.

Ye Liuyun couldn’t help but laugh, gently patting Lei Zheng’s shoulder, saying nothing more.

At this moment.

Ye Liuyun also noticed a gaze, turning to see, it was indeed Yue Xiu.

Evidently, Yue Xiu too noticed Lei Zheng inquiring to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun grinned, the meaning was clear, he said nothing.

"..."

Yue Xiu didn’t speak.

But it was not hard to see, in Yue Xiu’s eyes, there was a glimmer of appreciation.

This young man is much more outstanding than I imagined.

How splendid!

If my youngest son were still alive, they might have even sworn brotherhood with Ye Liuyun.

Having such a brother, my youngest son would surely have been very happy.
