The Crown Prince, with a headache, looked over the case files. The Ministry of Justice had too many cases, let alone the backlog of them. He lifted his head, "Deputy Minister Zhou, are you feeling unwell?"
Zhou Shuren's heart skipped a beat; with a feigned cough, he said, "It rained last night and the temperature has dropped significantly today. I am getting old, and it's inevitable to feel some discomfort in this body."
The Crown Prince was still very anxious. Although the Emperor had tasked him with overseeing The Six Ministries, it wasn't meant for him to lay permanent roots there. There was a time limit to his assignment. The Ministry of War, he planned to make a cursory inspection, but not the Ministry of Justice. "I will send for the Imperial Physician right away. Imperial Physician Liu is familiar with your family. Since Liu has retired, his son's medical skills are even better than his. I'll ask someone to call him."
