269 Entering the Palace (Second Watch)_2

Becoming the Grand Marshal in charge of all military horses... wouldn't that elevate him above the Marquis Xuanping?

Empress Dowager Zhuang did not oppose his appointment as the libationer for the Guozijian, which added to his prestige. However, if he rejected her decree now, she would have a way to prevent the old libationer from taking office.

There had always been a delicate balance between them, but this time the Empress Dowager had indeed been too forceful!

The Grand Marshal for the military? Why didn't she just depose him and become the emperor herself!

Empress Dowager Zhuang: "If your majesty has any objections, we can discuss it another day."

The Emperor's fingernails dug into his palm: "I have no objections. Your ideas are my ideas."

After the royal court adjourned, the Emperor returned to his palace with a gloomy face.

Empress Dowager Zhuang also returned to Renshou Palace.
