For a moment, the Imperial Court descended into chaos, with officials arguing back and forth.
Empress Dowager Yan's brow furrowed, her expression extremely displeased.
Yan Shanao, on the other hand, kept his eyes closed, affecting a profound and detached air.
As for Xiao Mo,
He was even calmer, watching the spectacle with some amusement, curious to see what outcome their bickering would produce.
"Silence!"
At that moment, Empress Dowager Yan took a deep breath and spoke.
Her voice was not loud, yet everyone could hear it.
The officials gradually fell silent, lowering their heads and returning to their positions.
