Li Fei remained composed, neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Highness jests, in front of you, how could I possibly be considered a powerful minister?"
The so-called powerful minister, besides having power in hand, also needs influence and followers.
As for Li Fei's current followers, at best, they are only a few officials like Lv Wenxing, who followed him from the Zhi Ge Pavilion, and there are hardly any ministers who can speak for him at the court.
As for influence, it is only limited to Datong Prefecture.
Therefore, although he currently holds a high position and great power, he is far from being overwhelmingly powerful, at most only half a powerful minister.
Being young is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
At the age of twenty, and not from an influential family, Li Fei still lacks foundation.
Only those like the Third Prince have their people within the aristocratic families, gangs, sects, and government offices across seven or eight provinces.
