De Fu had been very confused, not knowing what he should say to the King. Standing by his side, De Fu did think that the King had spoiled the Heir way too much, and he even gave the Heir real power, which was a taboo.

Look at the previous King for example. When he was in his flourishing years, he would not have done anything like that. Even when the Heir was established, the Heir should never be overly trusted or own too much.

The throne was something everyone dreamt about having, othewise there would never have been anything like killing someone for the throne in the past. That was how the King established himself as well. However, the King had forgotten this experience. Nevertheless, De Fu was just a servant who had no rights to comment about the imperial family. So he felt very conflicted when he was asked.

His heart was dangling back and forth.

When the King mentioned that he had come up with a solution, De Fu let out a sigh of relief, asking. “What is your opinion?”

Well, De Fu was not actually too curious about what the King was thinking.

However, he was someone who understood the King after spending so many years with him – the King was a very lonely man, and he could not share his thoughts with anyone else. Sometimes he just spoke to himself about some things, and De Fu would just be someone who gave compliments.

The King was in a good mood, probably because he had just come up with a solution.

Hearing what De Fu was asking him, he didn’t conceal his real ideas and sighed. “Well, it is my fault. I did pick the Heir while I was still very young, and I feel sorry for his mother as well, but I was too happy to think about the consequences, after I waited for more than twenty years.”

“…”

“Now I have given the Heir the best I can offer, but that has made him more arrogant. As time goes by, he will just forget about me.”

“…”

“I have also seen through those people in the court. Most of the ministers already accepted the Heir as the future King and none dare to counter him because they respect me, but that won’t work.”

“…”

“I have been in the throne for more than twenty years. I am not a very good King, but the Saint Divine Land has still developed into a flourishing land. So I know how to deal with the court anyway.”

“…”

“Normally, there should be a balance in the court. Prime Minister Chu maintains the literal ministers whilst General Liu keeps the martial soldiers. As for the noble families, the Yao Family as well as the Min Family are on both ends. As for the Duke North Mansion, the old Duke North is now gone, and the current one is too young to hold up the whole family. The reason why the court is balanced is because we are supervising each other and competing with each other, in this way, they understand who they are and what they should do.”

After hearing the King’s speech, De Fu seemed to have gotten a better understanding about what was going on.

“So you mean…?”
