Kapitel 222: Pouter's CLub

After sending Lei Xing off, the Emperor returned to the royal study. He had a meeting with the Minister of Rites regarding the details of the wedding ceremony. And later on, Prime minister Zhao brought Zou kingdom's finalized tribute list and trade deals that had been negotiated with Prince Rui. The Emperor looked over the final report and put his seal on it and Eunuch Li handed it back to Prime minister Zhao. 

Prime minister Zhao took it, bowed but instead of leaving, he remained standing there with knit eyebrows. The Emperor raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is there something else?"

The Emperor was aware that Prime minister Zhao's mood has not been good since he announced Lei Xing as his choice for Empress. But his mood was not the Emperor's concern and he knew better than to come to complain to the Emperor. After all, there was nothing wrong with the choice of Lei Xing other than the fact that she was not his daughter.
