The palace gradually returned to tranquility.
Zhao Junyao remained relentlessly busy.
With spring arriving, the Ministry of Revenue faced a mountain of tasks.
There was drought here, shortage there, and unrest among the people.
Or maybe there was a place struck by disaster last year, with no harvest at all, needing seeds from the Imperial Court for relief.
Additionally, due to heavy snowfall this year, some areas close to the northern border were still struggling with snow disasters.
Each of these matters seemed small, but together they overwhelmed him, demanding great attention.

The court almost turned into a brawl with chaos, none of the Three Departments and Six Ministries gave him peace of mind.
It was almost noon when it was time for lunch that the court meeting finally wrapped up smoothly.
Zhao Junyao rubbed his throbbing temples, hurriedly heading towards the Imperial Study Room.
