Vice Minister Zhang?
Ye Qiu remembered, this man was the top scorer during the late Emperor's era. Back then, while his literary grace wasn't the most outstanding, his writings were the most practical. The late Emperor, pleased upon seeing them, exceptionally promoted him to top scorer. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a student of Minister Liu.
Having thought this, Ye Qiu also had a foundation in his heart. Since Vice Minister Zhang was not only the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue but also a student of Minister Liu, even if he gained a position, Ye Qiu wasn't afraid of Prime Minister Xiao's underhanded tactics. He had already made up his mind.
"We are informed. Xiao Shun, escort Minister Liu out."
Seeing Ye Qiu nod, Minister Liu knew that his words had been taken to heart, and couldn't help but feel a trace of joy. Not that he was selfish, but he truly believed that his student was the most suitable person to fill his position.
