When the First Emperor went on tour, he took many ministers with him. The Left Prime Minister Li Si, who had originally reviewed memorials with Lu Buwei, and the Right Prime Minister Feng Quji were among them.
Now Lu Buwei is the only one left in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and all matters, big or small, are decided by his single word.
It is not known whether the Queen Afang, who was in charge of the country, had received instructions from the First Emperor, but she fully trusted the Prime Minister of Qin and rarely rejected Lu Buwei's replies.
Since they really disagreed, Afang just said, "This matter is serious, please think about it more, my Lord."
With such great power over the government and the country, others might not be able to control the overall situation and might become arrogant.
