Upon hearing this, the emperor turned around and looked at He Lianfang in surprise: "Rearranging a mentor for Xiao Shi, why is that?" The emperor genuinely didn't understand this time, "Xiao Shi is just starting his studies this year and is doing quite well at Wende Hall."
He Lianfang never held back in the emperor's presence and spoke his mind directly.
"You should arrange for a tutor to teach Xiao Shi the imperial skills."
"Imperial skills?" The emperor raised his eyebrows in astonishment at these words, then immediately frowned and said, "Lao He, do you know what you're saying?"
Unafraid of the emperor, He Lianfang looked him straight in the eyes and said once more, "Find someone to teach Xiao Shi the imperial skills." Although Zhao Yao was very perceptive and intelligent in state affairs, He Lianfang still felt that finding a mentor to properly teach Zhao Yao imperial skills was necessary for him to learn how to be an emperor.
"Reason." The emperor asked coldly.
