Master Ye smiled helplessly, "To speak it aloud, it would make Elder Wei laugh. Ye himself wishes to be of help, but is powerless. These years..."
He knew he had said too much, and that today he had been unusually happy, so he promptly picked up his teacup and said no more.
Elder Wei and A'niu weren't concerned either. There are some things that Master Ye doesn't wish to speak of, naturally because they're too deeply involved and he cannot.
"Master Ye, this matter now is deeply entangled, you must be careful!"
A'niu reminded him kindly.
As for the complexity of the situation, Master Ye had long anticipated it, "I understand. Otherwise, the higher-ups wouldn't have mobilized the power of our War Department."
The three of them drank tea and discussed the development of the southeast in recent years.
Quietly waiting for things to unfold.
Sakata sat in his own hall with a face full of rage.
