Qin Yuan after a while finally said, "This truly is… truly an excellent opportunity, many thanks to Brother Cheng for thinking of it. If he hadn't pointed it out, we would never have thought of it."
To be able to follow the investigation of the Five Cities Military Department, it was truly a godsend.
Mrs. Dai immediately took up the conversation,
"There are still many matters within this to be discussed. No one had expected His Majesty to suddenly celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday. Previously, every fifth or tenth year they would say to be frugal, but I wonder why they're holding it again this year."
Qin Yuan herself could not make sense of it.
In her previous life, both the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were very thrifty.
On one hand, it was because the Emperor and Empress Lin wanted to be seen as wise monarch and virtuous empress.
