Capítulo 678: Escaping Pathetically

Old Master Ling was about to announce to the world.

"By the will of the heavens, the emperor decrees. Ever since we ascended to the throne, we have been cautious and conscientious in managing the empire's affairs. Our age is already advanced and crown prince Long Xiao is competent in managing national affairs. We shall pass on the throne to crown prince Long Xiao..."

...

After Old Master Ling praised himself, he immediately announced passing down of the throne...

"Cautious and conscientious in managing the empire's affairs..." Ling Tian was speechless and looked at the sky. "My dear grandfather, it hasn't been long since you became the empire but you have not even read a single memorial or handled any state affairs. Instead, you pushed everything to me and do not even attend court. To think that you are actually shameless enough to praise yourself for being cautious and conscientious. You are probably more of lazy and careless!"
