"Crown Princess?"
In the side room of the temple's backyard, Chen Yuan halted the hand holding a chess piece, listening to the commotion outside, he couldn't help but glance up.
Since he moved into Xuankong Temple, no one else had come.
His eyes shimmered with a faint golden light, and then he seemed slightly surprised, a flicker crossing his brows.
He then placed the chess piece in the chess bowl, looked at the Minister of the Imperial Secretariat kneeling on the ground beside him, and slowly spoke:
"You can go back!"
"Remember to find a more reliable excuse from your superiors next time."
The clerk, feeling a great relief, responded quickly with an "aye," then crawled up and said, "This subordinate will leave now."
With that, he quickly stepped back, then turned to hurriedly pull open the door and leave, lightly closing it behind him as he tiptoed away.
The scene was indescribably comical!
