Today, the Three Provinces and Six Ministries, apart from Han Mo, only had two senior ministers of the Cabinet.
They were trusted by the Emperor, smiling while drinking, obviously already aware of today's events.
However, one person caught Li Yan's attention.
It was Grandmaster Huo Yin, seemingly casually seated and drinking, yet his presence was as profound as an abyss, secretly monitoring all directions.
Li Yan had long taken notice of him.
Earlier, when the Emperor took the stage, Huo Yin was even more vigilant, as Military Department commander Jiao Wanbao, Luo Mingzi, and his trusted Taoists disguised themselves as dignitaries, merchants, and even Academy Servants, mingling among various ceremonial formations.
It seems this celebration had already been laid with a trap by Zhao Qingxu.
But until the Emperor departed, Zhao Qingxu did not appear.
Li Yan was indeed somewhat curious.
