He just hadn't expected that this man hadn't sought refuge under Li Zhen, nor had he become a lapdog for the Eunuch Faction.
"Master, we've arrived," the driver's voice rang out respectfully.
"Mhm." Dad slowly stepped down from the carriage, preparing to head toward the manor's entrance. However, just as he reached the door, he stopped. Before him stood a resolute figure.
"Assistant Minister Lou?" The person was none other than Lou Yingqi, who had just left the grand hall not long ago.
Dad frowned at the man before him.
Lou Yingqi revealed a smile. He looked up at Zeng Shilin and said softly, "Minister Zeng's mansion was truly difficult to find. It exhausted the old horse pulling my carriage, but fortunately, although the old horse is a bit advanced in years, it still has some speed left in it."
