Chapitre 1111: 429: Pressuring Yan Qiongsi

Yan Junchu responded to Xin Yi's worried gaze, saying, "If Father Emperor just investigates Ji Gang, Geng Yuan will inevitably find out. He belongs to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs and can't bypass the Minister of that ministry."

Su Xinyi understood. If His Majesty were to investigate, it wouldn't directly involve Geng Yuan. This minister would then be like an ant on an iron pot, set over the fire.

As one of the Imperial Secretaries of the Six Ministries, if someone under him had run into trouble, he couldn't escape responsibility. Whether he would be implicated depended on what Ji Gang had actually done.

But without His Majesty's nod, Geng Yuan couldn't take action openly.

Now, Your Highness had given him this chance. Su Xinyi couldn't help but wonder, if His Majesty hadn't used Geng Yuan, was he then leaving this opportunity for Your Highness?

With this thought, Su Xinyi fell into a brief silence. She was finding His Majesty more and more incomprehensible.
