Feng Yu did not expect him to take the initiative to look for him.
He was not stupid. How could he not understand Ye Wangchuan’s weakness?
Only Qiao Nian could make him give up his principles.
He frowned and guessed again, “You’re here about the Privy Council? You heard about it too?”
Ye Wangchuan elegantly picked up the tea cup, then gently brushed the foam with the cover bowl. He blew on it and took a sip. Then, he looked up and raised his eyebrows. “New tea this year?”
Feng Yu was speechless.
He, on the other hand, was very calm. He smiled and praised it. “It tastes good. ”
Feng Yu could not take it anymore and skipped the topic. “Don’t talk to me about tea. If you like this tea, I’ll give you all my tea leaves later!”
His face was about to touch Ye Wangchuan’s, so anxious he was. “Do you have a solution?”
Ye Wangchuan leaned back to distance himself from him. Then, he unhurriedly said, “I’ve checked the Privy Council’s current composition. There are 16 conservatives, 15 radicals, and 10 neutrals… The neutrals don’t seem to have many people, but they are the ones who determine the Privy Council’s every decision.”
“I know everything you said.” Feng Yu was quite anxious and immediately asked him, “Do you also know that they plan to vote to decide if Nian Nian can enter?”
Ye Wangchuan nodded slightly. “l just found out.”
Feng Yu drew a shaky breath and stood up in annoyance. He walked in a circle before stopping. “Ji Ziyin has the Empress’s power. She met Leonard too… The radical faction will definitely want to get Nian Nian’s spot.
“The neutral party… I only know Martin. He’s willing to stand on Nian Nian’s side, but one person is not enough!”
Feng Yu and Martin had been friends for more than 10 years, and the two of them were close friends.
Before Feng Yu could speak, Martin had said that he would vote for Qiao Nian.
“Martin is just a fringe figure in the Neutral Faction. Although he can also vote, the Neutral Faction only listens to Archbishop Quentin’s arrangements.
“Quentin… is said to hate Easterners.”
Feng Yu added, “l told Emperor Ji about this. He said he’ll contact Quentin, but he can’t guarantee the outcome.”
The neutral faction was neutral because they were as slippery as loaches. These people and families were almost unique existences among the reclusive families.
They belonged to the reclusive families and also joined the Privy Council, but they did not treat the Empress as their leader.
They were more willing to listen to the archbishop’s arrangements.
These people had a lot of wealth and power. Even the Empress had always wanted to rope them in.
It was just that with the archbishop’s existence, the Empress had spent decades only to make them appear to belong to the reclusive families on the surface and not separate from them.
“The Empress will definitely use this opportunity to rope in the neutral faction and completely block Nian Nian’s way into the Privy Council!” Feng Yu rubbed his hands, feeling distraught.
Of course, Ye Wangchuan knew this. He only said, “l have two people in the
Privy Council’s Neutral Faction.”
Originally filled with anxiety and anger, Feng Yu now looked as if he had seen a ghost. ‘You still have people in the Privy Council?!” This…
The Privy Council’s heart of the reclusive families.
And he had successfully inserted himself into it?
This scheme…
Feng Yu looked at the man’s young face, extremely shocked. “You…?”
He did not know what to say..
