As Lu Yu finished speaking, Xiong Qingcang said: "If a member of the Royal Family were to become the Commander of the Deceit Suppression Bureau, it might compromise the bureau's independence."
The Deceit Suppression Bureau holds excessive power, and losing its independence could easily turn it into a tool for the court's political struggles. At that point, the bureau might be unable to fulfill its duties properly.
Lu Yu said: "At this stage, why worry about such things? Ever since Princess Yun'an began interacting with the bureau, the Royal Family has been poised to intervene in its affairs."
When Ji Yunmeng first mentioned wanting to train at the bureau, it raised the alert of some members, as this was the first time a Royal Family member had come to the bureau. However, considering Ji Yunmeng was just a princess, most people didn't pay much attention.
