By the second day, for some reason, rumors had spread that the Imperial Concubine was meddling in state affairs, even saying that her suggestions on how to deal with the remnants of the Eldest Prince in the Southern Province and to ask merchants to donate money for disaster relief came from her. The previous dynasty was shaken, and the Imperial Censors one after another submitted memorials to criticize Ye Qiu.
Ji Fei's attitude was also very ambiguous, not denying these rumors, nor punishing Ye Qiu, as if he intended to let the situation ferment.
"Grandfather, are you really not worried at all?" Ye Mu felt extremely anxious inside.
But Ye Xing was serenely sipping a cup of tea made with the Spiritual Spring Water that Ye Mu had brought back from Ye Qiu, "Who do you think spread these rumors?"
"Isn't it His Majesty?" As he saw his grandfather gaze at him with an expression that seemed to say 'you're an idiot', Ye Mu said doubtfully, "Isn't it him? Then who is it?"
"Your sister."
