"I heard they're starting the recall of my uncle, the Mechanical Minister... If my uncle is removed, the Lu Family's representatives in the Empire's officialdom would be wiped out..."
"Your Highness is aware that the Lu Family is a mechanical lineage. We have built our family upon mechanical expertise and are naturally unskilled in the bureaucratic arts. Our power base in officialdom is quite weak..."
"At such a time, how will the Lu Family protect itself? Your Highness, there's widespread anxiety..."
"While I personally sympathize with the Lu Family's predicament, I also find the injustices faced by the Director and Minister Dongsheng deplorable," Zhong Tianyi immediately expressed his consolation, saying, "Regrettably, Tian Yi's influence is too minor, his words too light to be of any help."
"Thank you, Your Highness. Your sentiment is much appreciated," Lu Yunhang said with a smile.
