The emperor stared at prime minister Bai blankly as he heard the most riveting news of his life.
Prime minister Bai was going to quit? Hand over the title to a son of his? This was the most glorious news for him in the many many many years he had been the emperor. He was completely getting rid of the man who had overshadowed him all these years.
The emperor was so excited by this news that he completely ignored the fact that prime minister Bai had disrespected him by leaving without asking for permission.
It was so exciting that he felt like he was floating. If he weren't so conscious of his surroundings it was likely he would jump with joy and scream with happiness.
This had been his unconscious dream all along.
