He did not think that Lord Huai had done anything wrong.

The King was just feeling that Lord Huai should greet him first after he went into the capital, but what the King had forgotten was that when Lord Huai said farewell to the King, the King asked him, the servant, to pass on the message to tell him not to inform him of anything in and out of the city. The King even asked him, the servant, to tell Lord Huai to stay lawful about everything, and that he should not greet him in the court, if not for any important matters.

Because of this message, Lord Huai did not visit the court on his trip back home. The King forgot what he had said, whilst getting too satisfied by the Heir, thus thinking that Lord Huai was wrong in every possible aspect.

However, the King would not listen now. He did not want to listen to anyone's words.

He should have stopped him from putting forward the proposal, but he stopped when he heard the King mentioning Lord Huai.

And today, he put forward the proposal directly to Lord Huai.

That was a huge surprise for De Fu.

The King felt very guilty inside his heart, so he turned to De Fu for some consolation. However, he did not want to help Lord Huai, so instead of countering the King, he consoled him instead.

The King just would not listen to any words. In this way, all he could do was to make the King feel slightly better.

He had been working for the King for so many years, and he knew the King well. He was a very stubborn person, who could not take any advice.

Also, he was just a servant… Although he was working by the King's side, he could not cross over the boundary. He should not get involved with the lords.

De Fu did not feel so optimistic about the current situation. The King did not establish the Heir, so all the lords were in the same equal position and lived a peaceful life, but the King broke the balance by establishing the Heir, and he even showed his preference to him. The Heir was a very ambitious person, which the King did not notice.

Unless the King wanted to take the position of King Dowager, how he dealt with the situation right now was not going to work out.

De Fu sighed inwardly. He was aware of what was going on, but he could say nothing. So he sighed.

The King, thanks to what he heard from De Fu, felt slightly better. For one moment, he believed that he was not as terrible as he had imagined himself to be.

No, he could not be a bad man.

"De Fu, add some more tea for me." The King reminded him.

When Zhou Huaijin left the court, he went straight to Xinlin Mansion instead of to Lord Huai's Mansion.

He was not going to return to Lord Huai's Mansion any more.

It would become the Heir's Mansion within a short time.

Gu Chaoyan had just eaten breakfast when she saw Zhou Huaijin coming. She asked curiously, "What is going on?"

She could tell that he was not in the right mood. He had a strange expression on his face, and he looked very dusty.

Zhou Huaijin nodded and decided not to conceal the truth.

"Well, father summoned me to the court early in the morning, saying that the Ministry of Architecture intends to build my mansion into the Heir's mansion instead. I don't think that I am able to go back to my own mansion from this day on, so I have to stay at your place, instead," Zhou Huaijin said.

When Gu Chaoyan heard the news, her face changed.

"That is very surprising!" Gu Chaoyan said with a look of total astonishment.

The King turned out to be so cruel!

It sounded like a proper decision, but throughout the entire history, there had never been a King who would build one of his sons' mansion into the heir's mansion. Normally, the extension should be done on the original mansion or a new building was built directly.

"Huaijin…" Gu Chaoyan said with a concerned tone.
