When Xi Ying reached the Imperial Palace and entered the Imperial Court, it was Minister Xi who informed him that Zhao Zhang Wei won't be able to attend the Imperial Court for at least two days as he was unwell.
Xi Ying raised his eyebrows in surprise.
After that, he went to sit on his seat in the Imperial Court. The Imperial Assembly continued for only a shichen today.
Xi Ying's eyes narrowed when at the end of the Imperial Assembly, Zhao Wang Lei offered to him that if he wanted he could have Zhao Zhuang Chen help him in managing convoy matters as Zhao Zhang Wei was unwell.
Xi Ying's cold and indifferent black eyes went to look at the eager Zhao Zhuang Chen. He was silent for a moment before he smiled lazily and shook his head
"No, Your Majesty. This minister can handle the matters until His Highness is unwell. When His Highness feels better, he can always come back and accompany this minister."
Xi Ying said politely.
