"Your Majesty"
Minister Xin glanced at Xi Ying and then at the Emperor before he said
"Your Majesty, this minister completely agrees with Prime Minister Xi. All of us are loyal to the Empire, towards Your Majesty, and towards the Imperial Clan. However, we do love our families also."
The ministers nodded their heads at Minister Xin's words.
"Your Majesty, if only one is ensured that his family is safe and secure in the Imperial City while he is away to complete his duty for the Empire, he can completely dedicate himself to his job."
The sounds of agreements echoed just after Minister Xin finished his words.
Zhao Wang Lei's fists were again clenched inside his sleeves.
His face was still emotionless and when the Imperial banquet hall gained its silence again, he finally said.
"Zhen can understand what Minister Xin is trying to say, however, Zhen doesn't think that this day is appropriate to discuss such matters."
