Song Nanyong was taking the very position of the man who had helped Qin Yuanjing frame him.
The Emperor's decree had been issued, throwing the entire court into disarray. But Song Nanyong was undeniably the victim in this matter, so no one could say the Emperor had acted wrongly. The trouble, after all, had been started by Grand Tutor Qin's son. Yet this situation hadn't led to Song Nanyong's downfall. Instead, he had been promoted two ranks. How infuriating was that?
After the court session ended, Yao Zongjing immediately caught up to the Right Minister. "Prime Minister, what do you believe His Majesty truly means by this?"
The Right Minister continued walking at a leisurely pace. He considered Yao Zongjing's words for a moment before speaking slowly, "The Emperor intends to promote the Song Family."
