Jiang Zhao Yuan took a deep breath. "I am merely concerned for Your Majesty—"
"Elder Jiang, is it that you don't trust Chutang, or that you don't trust me?"
The Eldest Princess's single sentence left Jiang Zhao Yuan speechless.
The few ministers trailing behind secretly exchanged glances and tactfully chose to keep their mouths shut.
Who in the entire Capital City didn't know that the Eldest Princess was Ye Chutang's backer?
Ye Chutang had saved her life, so of course she trusted her implicitly. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so bold as to summon Ye Chutang directly at such a critical moment.
Even if Jiang Zhao Yuan was truly displeased with the Eldest Princess, how could he possibly voice it in front of so many people?
After weighing his options, he could only bow his head.
"...I would not dare."
The Eldest Princess scoffed inwardly.
She had never liked Jiang Zhao Yuan. On a normal day, she might not bother with him, but today was different.
