Phibit secretly rejoiced in his heart; it was very clear that the relationship between this Oracle and Royd seemed not so harmonious.
However, he was still not at ease.
The Emperor asked Gu Shengyin, "Oracle, it is said that you have a good relationship with my brother, Duke Royd."
The Emperor did not overlook Gu Shengyin's expression, so he clearly saw that when he mentioned the title of Duke Royd, the other party's brows furrowed slightly with impatience.
Gu Shengyin hesitated for a moment before answering, "Duke Royd is very confident; he is a man without belief. I stayed one night at the Duke's mansion. As the Oracle of the Goddess of Nature, I have no way to become his guide."
These words were spoken quite tactfully, and the Emperor easily heard the underlying implication: I am at odds with Duke Royd, and our relationship is not good at all.
