"Why?"
Faced with his son's shocked inquiry, Minister Fan did not continue this topic. He smiled and changed the subject, saying, "Is the situation alright in the Palace?"
Fan Xian replied, "The Great Prince is keeping watch with injuries, the empress dowager is very ill, and Li Chengqian has already been shut in the Eastern Palace. There shouldn't be a problem."
"Good." Fan Jian nodded. His eyes gradually revealed a glimmer of gentleness as he sighed in admiration". You've only been back in the capital seven or eight days. I have to say, to be able to hold down Jingdou for the Emperor in such circumstances, you have improved beyond my expectations. You've done very well."
