However, Xu Qing was different; he did not buy into this set of principles.
"Did Your Majesty just mention the Celestial Master? Are you referring to the Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion?"
"..."
Zhu Huai'an reacted swiftly, answering without hesitation, "I know Brother Xu is not fond of the Celestial Master's Mansion, but when I first entered the Capital City, their substantial assistance was invaluable. If I were to discard them now, it would surely draw the anger of the whole nation."
"Besides, I have control over the Celestial Master's Mansion, and I trust they wouldn't dare engage in any demonic deeds as Brother Xu suggests."
Xu Qing looked at Zhu Huai'an and suddenly smiled:
"I just engage in the funeral business; I do not meddle in state affairs, nor do I hold an official position. If Your Majesty truly values our past relations, you should allow me to stay in the Jin Sect, to continue working humbly in my trade as a commoner."
