Fu Tinghan said, "The Emperor is appealing to them, but not to us, especially since many of our policies are newly established. The Emperor represents the court, surrounded by so many old ministers, that any policy proposed requires lengthy debate. And what we lack most is time."
Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "These years were not only plagued by war but also natural disasters. I have a constant feeling that life will become even harder in the coming years, so we can't afford to waste time in internal conflict. Even though Gou Xi is bothersome, he can restrain the court."
"Poor Uncle," Zhao Hanzhang sighed, "At his advanced age, navigating under the eyes of Gou Xi and the Emperor, life won't be easy."
