However, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Father Ye's fame in the capital was unparalleled and he was the Emperor's favourite.
Not only was he a superb cook, but he was also a clever man. When the Emperor encountered some difficult decisions, he would consult Father Ye.
At that time, there were too many people who wanted to curry favor with the Ye Family.
However, Father Ye had never participated in the Inheritance War, so in the end, he chose the neutral Prime Minister.
Ning Zhao had already expected this situation.
He lost interest in continuing to ask and changed the subject. "There is one more thing, Father, the First Prince left for the Ping County early this morning."
"The Ping County? It seems that the Emperor has made a decision. "The Prime Minister whispered.
The Ping County was vast, but it was sparsely populated. There were also bandits, so even the Imperial Court officials were reluctant to go there.

The Emperor didn't have many children. There were only two who were extremely outstanding in competing for the throne, the Third Prince and the First Prince. The First Prince was the eldest son while the Third Prince was the Empress's legitimate son. Both of them were very outstanding in policy discussions.
However, in recent years, the Third Prince's political achievements had been very good. The Emperor had the intention to cultivate the Third Prince, sometimes even letting the Third Prince take back his memorials to review.
The First Prince's party had been suppressed to the point where there were very few people left.
However, the First Prince knew that if he didn't succeed, when the Third Prince ascended to the throne, what awaited him would be hell.
Now, the Emperor trusted the Third Prince and let him manage the Ping County.
Not to mention the advisors of the First Prince's residence, even the First Prince himself was at a loss.
He sighed and returned to his study, preparing to write a memorial to the Emperor. This was the result of his discussion with his advisors.
However, when he sat back in his chair, he saw a letter on the table.
On it was written, "To the First Prince."
These five words were awe-inspiring, shocking everyone who saw it.
The First Prince thought it was a letter from his subordinates, but he was wondering which advisor's handwriting was it. How come he hadn't seen it before?
After opening the letter, he forgot about this. The more he read, the more solemn his expression became, with a hint of excitement and appreciation.
This letter was very long, with several sheets of paper.
It was not only the analysis of the current imperial court. The First Prince felt as if he had been enlightened by someone with a hint. At first, he was very shocked that there was someone who could see the situation so clearly.
There were even some people whose underlings he didn't know!
The Great Prince looked at this network of connections, and fine cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He controlled his trembling heart and continued to read.
When he saw the other party's predictions and plans for the district, and even the distribution of bandits in the district, he suddenly stood up.
The Great Prince had the files of the Ping District in his hands. However, it was likely that even the Imperial Court did not know much about the Ping District, let alone him.
However, this person knew the county like the back of his hand. Every word he said was filled with a majestic aura.
If he didn't know that his father didn't have this handwriting, the Eldest Prince would definitely think that this was a letter from the Emperor.
The Great Imperial Prince sent for two of his most trusted aides and began to discuss this mysterious letter.
They also studied the inscription with the strange handwriting. In the end, they couldn't come up with anything. However, this group of people was very shocked by this letter. They waited in the Great Imperial Prince's study all night.
The Great Imperial Prince and his aides disrupted their previous plan to stay in the capital and rushed to the Ping District early in the morning.

Ye Shaohua's people outside passed the Great Imperial Prince's news to Ye Shaohua.
Then, every time they brought back a letter, they would bring back all kinds of good things.
During this period of time, the Great Imperial Prince's reforms were in full swing. The people who ran errands for Ye Shaohua also started to bring back the Great Imperial Prince's replies to Ye Shaohua.
Other than replying to the letters, Ye Shaohua didn't do anything else during this period of time.
The person who sent the letter to Ye Shaohua was very frightened at first. However, later on, the Great Imperial Prince's trusted aide respectfully delivered the letter to him and didn't follow him to find his address. After that, the fear in this little hoodlum's heart was suppressed, and all that was left was respect for Ye Shaohua.
Ye Shaohua also got the custom-made silver needles.
The wet nurse in Song Shuyun's courtyard didn't believe her. She still stared at her every move. Even Master Song's words were useless.
Ye Shaohua felt very annoyed. She didn't give Song Shuyun acupuncture in public.
Instead, she took advantage of the time at night to give Song Shuyun acupuncture. After seeing his eyelashes tremble, she stopped.
She didn't have any maidservants in her courtyard. Master Song later said several times, but Ye Shaohua didn't agree to have a maidservant.
After she finished the acupuncture, she began to reply to the Great Imperial Prince.
The next morning, she remembered that she gave Song Shuyun acupuncture last night. Now that she could see the obvious effect, she directly walked towards Song Shuyun's courtyard.
However, before she walked in, she could feel that there were a lot of people in Song Shuyun's courtyard.
She grabbed a maidservant on the road and asked what happened.
The maidservant was sweating profusely. She lowered her head to hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes towards Ye Shaohua. "Young Master suddenly had a high fever this morning. Master is asking a doctor in the capital to see him."
High fever?
Ye Shaohua guessed that it should be a stress reaction. She twisted her eyebrows and quickened her pace.
It didn't take long before she arrived at Song Shuyun's courtyard.
The wet nurse was waiting at the entrance of the courtyard early in the morning. When Ye Shaohua arrived, her face was ice-cold.
Until she saw the person walking behind Ye Shaohua, her eyes brightened. She immediately took a step forward and pushed Ye Shaohua, who was already at the door.
