Prime Minister Xue, upon seeing this, spoke out, "If the Grand Tutor does not wish to get involved, then just pretend to be unaware."
He fiddled with the walnut in his hand and after much deliberation, decided to stand with the Eldest Princess.
Qi Wuya's capabilities should not be underestimated. Allowing him to grow and strengthen would eventually threaten his interests.
Qi Bingshuang, seeing that Prime Minister Xue also supported her, felt more confident and continued to persuade, "Qi Wuya is not taking action now because his wings are not yet full, he's accumulating power. Once he holds real authority and strikes at us, it'll be too late for us to beg for mercy at his feet."
At this point, she looked towards Zheng Dingshan, her words tinged with sarcasm, "Grand Tutor, don't forget, back when we were in the academy and the Ninth Prince was bullied, you, as Grand Tutor, didn't stand up to speak a word of fairness."
Zheng Dingshan choked, his old face turning red.
