"Then we'll repair all the river dikes this time."
"Boss, I never thought your father-in-law had such skills," Shen Hu teased irreverently.
Chu Ying chimed in, "Governor Liang can predict potential floods this year based on past experience. He's truly impressive, worthy of being your father-in-law, boss."
"Boss, your father-in-law really is quite capable," Song Dekang joked, "After he became governor, he's managed things in Yangzhou very efficiently."
"He's a man of real accomplishments." Grandmaster Liu spoke highly of Liang Shuren, not because Liang was the emperor's father-in-law, but because he was genuinely a good official with the people's interests at heart.
The emperor slightly raised his chin, saying with a face full of pride, "How could my father-in-law be anything but exceptional?"
Seeing the emperor still wearing a proud expression, Prime Minister He and the others couldn't help but laugh.
