Zhang Biwu's jaw was removed. Although it was not a severe punishment, it was still extremely painful for him who was old and held a high position and had never suffered any physical pain.
He only heard him groan, his face turned pale, and his breathing became much faster and heavier.
But even so, Zhang Biwu did not show any timidity.
It wasn't that he wasn't afraid, but after learning that Li Chen had sealed off the entire capital, he understood that he was completely finished, and all the fears he should have had had already exploded at that time.
Now, all he has left is a bit of regret and sadness because he was not decisive enough and ruthless enough, so that all his efforts failed.
This regret and sadness fell on Li Chen through his eyes, and Li Chen could see them all.
Li Chen didn't bother to talk to him more. Zhang Biwu was a bit scheming and a bit courageous, but after all, the situation was still small. His skills and courage were both outstanding, but they were not big enough to support what he was doing now. It is inevitable that things will fail.
Having said that, it doesn't matter if he succeeds.
For the situation, it will naturally get worse. For him, it is indeed a huge trouble, but for Zhang Biwu himself, it may not be a better path.
How could a person who knew it himself but not everyone else in the world allow someone like Zhang Biwu to live alone in the world after he accomplished something?
Li Chen didn't know whether Zhang Biwu had considered this aspect, nor did he want to know.
Seeing Zhang Biwu being dragged down by Xu Wei, Li Chen's eyes finally fell back on the remaining frightened officials.
In just one breath, Li Chen had already made a plan.
So he spoke.
These words shattered the last bit of luck these officials had.
"These officials who accompanied Zhang Biwu to force the empress were punished as treason and handed over to Dongchang for justice."
As soon as the words fell to the ground, howls and curses filled the sky.
Although these people know what they are doing and understand that if they fail, the consequences will be very serious, but when these serious consequences really fall on them, they are still afraid of death.
"Prince! Zhang Biwu Shang can survive, why do we end up like this?"
"Prince! If you keep us, we will definitely swear allegiance to the death. Killing us will be a temporary gain, but the government's operation is blocked, the civil and military people in the court are panicked, and government affairs are blocked. How can the prince not see clearly this?" Any pros and cons?”
These two questions were quite reasonable, so Li Chen took a little more time to give them these words.
"The politics of the DPRK are of course based on compromise. Killing them all is by no means a permanent solution. It will even arouse people's panic and even have the opposite effect. As you or the vast majority of people think, the most sensible thing for me to do is to seize the opportunity and let go. Small, for example, Zhao Xuanji was like this when I got married. Although he killed a hundred or ten people, Zhao Xuanji is still alive, and most of those who followed the rebellion below are still alive and well."
"But today is different from the past. I... don't have the patience to play any more political tricks with you idiots. In short, I have a long sword in my hand. If there is any injustice, I can kill it with one sword."
