Liu Tong raised an eyebrow; from a certain angle, Chen Xi's actions could be seen as losing decorum in front of the ruler, but she had to admit that Chen Xi did indeed cover all the bases.
Moreover, finding trouble for Chen Xi over such a trivial matter wasn't worth it. Liu Tong wasn't stupid; Chen Xi couldn't be moved. Not to mention, ninety-nine percent of the ministers present were waiting to rely on Chen Xi for their livelihoods, whether they admitted it or not. Chen Xi genuinely made their lives better.
"Go serve some tea to all the ministers," Liu Tong said to the palace maid beside her. To serve only Chen Xi in such a situation would seem rather unruly.
However, during such a Grand Assembly, very few maids were allowed inside. The only one present was because she had served Liu Tong during her years of hardship. Now that Liu Tong was regent, her maid's status had also risen. As for others who could enter, they were even fewer.
