Nangong Yi knew very well that Mo Ziqi was a magnanimous man; if he liked Zhao Yang, he definitely would not have entangled with Fei'er. Since he had approached Fei'er, he would certainly not accept Zhao Yang anymore.

Today, in the Imperial Court, the Emperor himself declared that henceforth, all court affairs would be handled by King Qin. Whether it was major or minor issues, King Qin's decisions would suffice without the need to report back to him. Therefore, the first edict he issued was to lift the ban on Duke Li Guo's Mansion.
