The discussion at the Imperial Court had concluded, and aside from Ji Xuansi and other members of the Ji Imperial Clan, almost everyone else's expression was gloomy.
In fact, Ji Xuansi's actions today, besides causing inconvenience to Su Xin and others, didn't hold much significance. Ji Xuansi knew that one must eat one bite at a time; it was essential to gradually erode the power held by Su Xin and his comrades.
After leaving the Imperial palace, Su Xin then followed Tie Ao and Tie Zhan back to Six Gates. Officially, he was there to hand over some affairs as one of the Four Great Divine Constables, but in reality, he was there to discuss countermeasures with Tie Zhan and to see how the Iron Family would react.
Within Six Gates, Tie Zhan looked at Su Xin in surprise and said, "Actually, I find it quite strange that you didn't react right there at the scene today."
Su Xin smiled and said, "Lord Tie Ao and you didn't react either, did you?
