Song Yunzhao's mind raced as she weighed the pros and cons. Outwardly, however, she maintained an uneasy expression. She reached out to tug on the Emperor's sleeve and asked softly, "Your Majesty, my father's rank is low and his influence is negligible. If he's appointed Vice Envoy so abruptly, I'm afraid he won't be able to command respect."
