Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and glanced around again.
When she looked ahead once more, she found that there was an empty seat next to Yu Wenquan where no one was sitting.
Strange, today all the officials are arranged according to rank. Next to Yu Wenquan should also be a high-ranking official from the court, so why is there an empty seat?
She wondered aloud, "That empty seat is—"
Yu Wenye also glanced up, softly saying, "It might be Ji Hong's seat."
"Ji Hong?"
The name piqued Shang Ruyi's memory. She whispered, "Lord Ji Nayan?"
Yu Wenye looked at her, "You know him?"
"How would I have such a chance? It's just that when I was a child, my father mentioned him, saying this Lord Ji is a rare loyal minister who serves the country with devotion."
Moreover, at Jiangdu Palace, the Lord Ji Nayan beheaded by Chu Yang was his son.
