The next day at the morning assembly, the courtiers offered various counsel, comforting the Commandery Princess, who appeared sorrowful.
Recently, Jiang Shaohua had not displayed any severe measures, nor had she frequently promoted her own people, treating the courtiers with gentle and mild methods. The atmosphere in the assembly visibly relaxed day by day.
Though aware that this was the Commandery Princess's way of winning hearts, the courtiers still felt much more at ease. At least, the Commandery Princess was willing to use them. They naturally had to perform well before the new sovereign. Government affairs had been running smoothly and efficiently this past month.
The sudden passing of the Commandery Princess's father-in-law due to illness was not a significant matter for the courtiers. After all, Lu Xuan had never been to the Capital City. The death of an unknown person with no weight in the officialdom elicited no sorrow from the courtiers.
