As if nothing happened at all

After he left, Lin Fan returned to the room and let out a sigh of relief.

Though he had been in complete control of the situation, there were many things that could have gone wrong and these were the things that he had been worried about.

He was afraid that there would be some kind of sudden change, but luckily nothing had gone wrong.

Everything had gone as he wanted it to.

In the beginning, there was no need for him to do something like this. He could have controlled the governor and then used him as a puppet to do what he wanted to do;.

But he did do it this way.

That was because he wanted to use this chance to send a message.

He wanted to do something for Mu Bao Bao now that she had taken the throne as the new empress.

She would be ruling over the governors of these provinces, so if they tried anything in the future, she would be the one that suffered. So he wanted to put them in their place before that could happen.
