The next morning.
Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Jiang Yi, came to the Ninth Mountain to bid farewell to Chen Yuan.
Today's Jiang Yi seemed somewhat different from last night, with a more compassionate expression on his face.
Chen Yuan asked him, "I heard you had a long conversation with Thunder Mountain last night."
Thunder Mountain, the messenger of Helian Mountain, the National Master of Daqian.
Jiang Yi slightly lowered his eyelids and replied, "The National Master is dedicated to the state of Daqian, and I can't bear the mistrust between the ruler and his ministers. When I return, I will strive for the National Master against those advisors."
"Then why did Lord Jiang keep Eunuch Cao of the Ritual Supervision out?" Chen Yuan mused.
