However, Zhao Rui managed to hold real power in the Ministry of War despite not being of direct lineage.
To say he was favored by the Emperor would not be an exaggeration.
The name 'Zhao Rui' was mentioned between them for the first time.
Lu Ziyuan was momentarily stunned, then quickly recalled Zhao Rui's identity.
Speaking of which, Princess Duan Yang was his biological aunt.
And Pei Yuxuan should be his cousin, a dignified Commandery Princess with royal blood.
For a couple to divorce, it would also be a disgrace to the Imperial Family.
Yet clearly, Lu Ziyuan had no intention of meddling in such affairs.
At the moment, thinking that she was still concerned about that old man's sister, his gaze darkened even more.
"Not bad," he said indifferently. "Zhao Rui has some abilities, and he is sociable, never making mistakes in his duties. I do plan to use him more."
Xie Wanqing was speechless, choked up.
