Prime Minister...
Princess Yufeng's heart gave a light leap...
Today, her brother had met with him in the West Tower. Amid laughter and conversation, Great Cang's political landscape had undergone a tremendous change. Now they had finally reached the core figure: how to settle Prime Minister Lu Tiancong.
"Go on, then!" Facing this difficult question, Ji Guang once again kicked the ball to Lin Su.
Lin Su did not decline. "I've said long ago that Lu Tiancong is unfit for the position of prime minister. But it would not be wise to beat him to death with one stick right now. How about this?

As Ji Guang pondered that name, other thoughts stirred within him. White Deer Academy's Hall of Knowing had once been Hidden Dragon's lair. Eight out of ten of its elder-level figures had gone, while the dozen or so remaining had not taken sides in the imperial battle and had thus survived. Yet they remained destabilizing factors. Those elders had shrunk into the Hall of Knowing, at a complete loss as to what to do. Now Lin Su suddenly wanted to throw Lu Tiancong into their midst. What was he plotting?
Was he looking for an opportunity to wipe them all out in one sweep?
Those thoughts slid through his mind. Ji Guang said, "Then who shall serve as the new prime minister?"

A strange glint appeared in Ji Guang's eyes. "My most suitable candidate has always been you! So why don't you come take the post..."
"Cut it out!" Lin Su
