Who was Yan Lu? Simply put, the current empress's surname was Yan.
Chen Yong looked down on these relatives from the bottom of his heart. However, Yan Lu was powerful and was an unshakeable existence in the court.
It could be said that under the control of the Yan Family's gang, no other voices could be heard in the court. Otherwise, Yan Lu would not dare to do such a thing as embezzling the official money for building dams.
In Chen Yong's opinion, those old fellows in the royal court who did not do their jobs had already decayed and were beyond redemption. The reason why he retired from his original position was also to set his sights on the new strength of the royal court in the future. The younger generation was the future of the royal court and even the vast empire.
He had chatted with Teacher many times in private. The crown prince seemed to be amiable, but under the Yan Family's influence, he could not help but act domineeringly.
