Chen Yuan also stepped forward, extending his palm amidst the witnessing of civil and military officials.
"Smack!"
A crisp sound echoed.
Chen Yuan and Jingtai, similar in height, exchanged a glance.
Retracting his palm, Chen Yuan slowly withdrew.
Jingtai turned on his heel and walked up to the high platform, looking down at the civil and military officials below:
"The assembly is dismissed!"
"Long live the Emperor!"
"Long live the Emperor!"
A tidal wave-like chorus rang out, quickly retreating as officials of various ranks sequentially left the Golden Throne Hall.
Jingtai watched the crowd leave, focusing on Chen Yuan, with a trace of icy coldness flashing in his eyes.
An official, daring to face him today without yielding, would dare to display might on his head tomorrow, and the day after would dare to enter the Imperial Palace and Harem as if there were nothing.
Chen Yuan has the potential to become a powerful official!
