Sitting cross-legged at home, ever since Peter Brown returned to the Capital City, apart from spending some time with his family members, he hasn't gone anywhere, not even attending the morning meetings of the imperial court, for which he has taken leave to stay home.
In regard to Peter Brown relinquishing military authority, and not participating in court politics, the New Emperor is actually pleased at heart; he is also worried that Peter's power might become too awesome, affecting his own position.
No one knows what Peter Brown is really thinking, what people see is Peter at home in closed-door cultivation, not even meeting guests.
Could it be he really handed over all his power?
