Chapter 289

In the Imperial Court-

Prime Minister Li only found out yesterday evening that the Ministry of Works was planning to build four large bridges on the Huai River simultaneously!

Building four large bridges over the Huai River! What a massive undertaking!

As the only Prime Minister of this dynasty, a man of almost unmatched power, he only learned of this affair when the first bridge's construction had already started!

This is simply preposterous!

These people from the Ministry of Works don't take him, the Prime Minister, seriously at all!

Such a significant affair! They didn't even consider his opinion or consult with him! They had already started the work without his knowledge! He wasn't even invited to the foundation-laying ceremony!

Where is he supposed to hide his face!

Humph! Starting bridge construction without the consent and discussion of all officials civil and military! How could this be acceptable!
