Chapter 129: Metropolitan Procurator of the First Rank

Soon, the morning court session ended, and Uncle Dingyuan and the Marquis of Wuwei left dejectedly, like stray dogs.

As for those ministers and nobles who had just echoed their statements, they acted as if they did not know the two, remaining silent.

Such was the court, where everything was prioritized for personal gain.

Before leaving, Qi Yu took a deep look at Gu Chen.

Upon stepping out of the Golden Luan Hall, the Duke of the Liang State approached Gu Chen, and they walked together.

"Greetings, Your Grace." Gu Chen cupped his hands and bowed.

The Duke of the Liang State, Lu Sheng, smiled and said, "No need to be so formal."

Then, he sized up Gu Chen, a glint in his eye, and said, "Good lad, I felt something was off in the court just now, and now that I see you, you have indeed reached the Vajra Realm."

Gu Chen smiled and said, "I just broke through a couple of days ago. Your Grace has keen eyes."
