The minister immediately fell silent.
Dealing with Ning Wangfei was indeed not the right timing now.
How could she be so fortunate? Just when the Empress Dowager fell ill at this critical moment, even the Imperial Physician was at a loss.
The Emperor looked at Prime Minister Zhang with somewhat cold eyes, speaking such arrogant and satirical words openly in front of him. He was growing more and more insolent.
But should he deal with him? That's something he needs to consider.
"My beloved ministers, the matter of Ning Wangfei is full of suspicions. I will neither shield her nor wrong her. But this matter must be set aside for now. Prime Minister Zhang is right; at this critical time, I hope everyone refrains from disturbing her. If someone frightens her with ill words and causes any mishap to the Empress Dowager, I will make sure his entire family pays with their lives."
The Emperor was a man of a gentle temperament, rarely showing anger.
