Chapter 819: Be the Hand that Control the Overall Situation

Yun Xi's eyes widened as she looked at the trends of influence that Mu Feichi had written down. Indeed, as Mu Feichi had said, all the departments had been set up to check and balance each other. Everything appeared balanced on the surface, but it was possible to feel a dangerous undercurrent.

"If the Qiao Family is growing strong in secret, it could be used as a weapon against the three noble families and even against the four wealthy clans. They are dark forces, while we practice in the light. We could end up in a bad situation. This is the very killing weapon that the Prime Minister needs to gain too much power and overturn the existing system of checks and balances."

Yun Xi nodded. "I understand. At this moment, there is a balanced power, and you still have the upper hand over him. If he wants to break this balance, he needs a trump card. The Qiao Family is his best bet to gain more power."
