Even if the imperial edict states that Zhao Xuanji should be killed immediately, unless Zhao Xuanji immediately changes his intention to usurp the throne, he will die.
But usurping the throne... Zhao Xuanji has already done it once, and so many preparations have failed. If he launches it hastily and forcefully now, he will inevitably face a second failure.
The capital of today is already different from the past.
Zhao Xuanji had already understood that in order to deal with the prince, he had to defeat the other party in the political struggle and seize power by force. This road would not work.
So Zhao Xuanji didn't dare to gamble.
We don't even dare to let the imperial edict be opened.
There was a gloomy and uncertain light in his eyes.
Fortunately, he was still prepared.
"Princess, be careful."
Zhao Xuanji cupped his hands and said calmly: "Right now, I and others are just discussing countermeasures. Their original intention is to stabilize the country. The situation is far from the point where we need to use the imperial edict. Please think twice."
Su Jinpa seemed a little disappointed when he heard this.
But she still put away the imperial edict and said with a smile: "What about Mr. Zhao Heshan?"
Zhao Xuanji said calmly: "Zhao Heshan is indeed unworthy of his position. His suspension is inevitable, but he can stay in the Hall of Supreme Harmony until the end of this court meeting."
This was Zhao Xuanji's biggest concession.
Su Jinpa did not push beyond the limits.
She nodded in agreement.
As long as Zhao Heshan is not expelled, the East Palace faction will not lose.
Then Su Jinpa doesn't have to die together.
Because she knew very well that this imperial edict... was fake.
Li Chen did not leave any imperial edict, and even the concession from His Highness that she said before was a lie.
Looking at all the civil and military officials, including Zhao Xuanji, who had been fooled into believing by him, for some reason, Su Jinpa suddenly thought of a story that Li Chen told him before they got married. There was a sentence in that story.
It is best not to believe what a woman says. The more beautiful a woman is, the less trustworthy she is.
I just don’t know how beautiful I am after this lie that deceived hundreds of officials.
Because of Su Jinpa's appearance, the entire court meeting suddenly became turbulent and treacherous.
Even Zhao Xuanji had to admit that Su Jinpa brought him great trouble.
Seeing the extremely noble and beautiful figure of Su Jinpa dressed in red, Zhao Xuanji felt a little desolate in his heart.
It turns out that he also has an equally outstanding daughter...
"Everyone, the meeting will continue."
Zhao Xuanji's deep voice echoed in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, regaining control of the rhythm.
"Now that the holy dragon is in a coma, and the prince who oversees the country is not in the capital, the dragons cannot be without a leader for a day, and the government cannot be without someone who makes the final decision. I suggest that the cabinet system be restored, and the cabinet directs the government and handles the affairs.
The government affairs of the whole country will be discussed, including military and aircraft affairs, until...the day when the prince returns."
Zhao Xuanji's words set off a shocking wave.
The East Palace faction instantly exploded like a ignited powder keg.
The prince went to great lengths to carry out government reforms at an unknown cost, abolishing the cabinet system and establishing a three-province system to separate the power of the cabinet. Now Zhao Xuanji showed his ferocious fangs and wanted to restore the cabinet.
Rebuilding the cabinet with a light sentence meant that all the prince's hard work was wasted.
This is absolutely unacceptable to the East Palace faction.
This time, Su Zhenting did not remain silent.
"I object to this. This matter is absolutely unacceptable and there is no room for negotiation!"
