The two old men were invited to the Kong Residence to read a letter, and Minister Guo complimented, "It's well written, but the matter of impeaching Wang Ji isn't that urgent. His reputation in the court hasn't been good since he punished his nephew with a flogging. The twenty positions at the Imperial Medical Bureau generate only two thousand taels of silver. We don't fear his accusations. I'll have an official from the Office of Palace Affairs write a rebuttal. There's no need for Libationer Kong to worry."
Libationer Kong raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "Didn't you see the signature at the end of it?"
Minister Guo nodded, "I did, and that's why I think there's no need."
He said, "Although Manbao is the Prince's person, she is favored by His Majesty and the Empress. A good sword should be used on the blade; there's no need to involve her in such trivial matters."
