Wang Anfeng said: "I do not intend to have any connection with the Imperial Court."
Cui He laughed softly, not believing this statement. He had been in politics for many years and had heard such words countless times. The greedier the person, the more likely they are to say such things, merely planning to ask for more leverage. He promptly said: "If that's truly the case, that would be good."
After a pause, he continued: "What does Mr. Wang think of this villa?"
Wang Anfeng said: "Peace amid the bustle, superior craftsmanship."
Cui He slightly curled his lips, sincerely saying: "If you can instantly cease contact with His Highness and rebuke him for being unworthy, I am willing to gift this villa and these maids to you, and further guarantee your entry into the Imperial Court as an official, allowing you to exhibit your lifelong learning and ambitions."
