Di Yelei was startled! He quickly excused himself, citing his old illness.
He also deliberately mentioned the recent accidental flooding in the study room of Marquis Mansion, hinting at the difficulties of his current situation, and indeed he saw His Majesty's expression soften.
It was only after he left the Golden Luance Hall that Di Yelei wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead!
The situation just now was so perilous!
Hopefully, he could successfully extricate himself from this matter.
He couldn't hide what happened from Liu Sisi, and Di Yelei didn't intend to. He naturally told her about Nan Tianzong.
Speaking of Nan Tianzong, Liu Sisi remembered the gold mine. If Nan Tianzong really wanted to deal with her, he presumably wouldn't have waited so many years.
