Chương 836: The Real Situation

The King did not sense Zhou Huailing's changing emotions. He nodded and said straightforwardly without suspecting him. "You are still young and may find many issues difficult to deal with. I have already dispatched De Fu back to the court yesterday and he will be by your side. You can ask him if you need to make some decisions. That will save you some trouble."

The words had just been spoken when Zhou Huailing's face changed. He was startled for one moment and then a touch of complicated emotions flashed across his eyes.

His father asked him to supervise the country, but he did not truly trust him. He approved of his suggestion of passing on daily messages at first, but then later, he even asked De Fu to supervise him instead. His father would rather trust an eunuch than him?

He had always believed that he was the most ideal candidate for the heir in his father's heart, but unexpectedly, his father was so protective after all.
