The Renshou Palace was quiet, the ministers looked at each other in confusion.
They knew that there were undercurrents, many people were unwilling to see the two dynasties negotiate peace, including people from both the Ning Dynasty and the Jing Dynasty.
Even if the alliance was signed, Yuan Cheng might not make it alive to Chongli Pass. Even if the envoy team could leave Chongli Pass, they might not make it back to Shangjing alive.
The Crown Prince wished to send Chen Ji to his death, understandable, but Chen Ji dared to drag the Crown Prince along to die, unexpected.
Yet at this time, the ministers were not too surprised, they had seen such things many times in the court, it was not unusual.
But they never expected that the Chen family and the Crown Prince would sever ties... all because of a bastard who had just entered the Imperial Capital less than a year ago.
The Crown Prince didn't expect it either.
