All the officials could not help breaking out in a cold sweat on Lu Hetian's behalf.
The Grand Duke must have gone mad; he even dared to treat His Majesty with such disrespect.
Did he think that he was entitled to treat the Emperor with such contempt just because his daughter had caught the Emperor's fancy?
It was madness, sheer madness.
By treating the Emperor so disrespectfully, the Grand Duke Majesty might as well just wait for His Majesty to pronounce sentence upon him.
Just as everyone was waiting wide-eyed with bated breath for calamity to befall the Grand Duke, Long Yang confounded everyone's expectations by not taking action against Lu Hetian.
In fact, the look he gave Lu Hetian was mild—a rare thing—before turning his eyes away.
His gaze immediately fell upon Lu Liangwei. In a low voice that did not lack for tenderness, he commented, "The last few days have been taxing for you. Go home and have a good sleep."
