A single sentence sealed the fate of Minister Cui and the others!
Zhou Yi knelt on the ground, revealing a smile as if to say, "As expected."
The new policy concerns His Majesty's achievements and failures in history; anyone who dares to obstruct it is committing a heinous crime. At this point, whether Minister Cui and his group are a faction is no longer important.
Reform has always been bloody since ancient times, and a group of ministers is just right for establishing authority.
The Orthodox Emperor said, "Show this confession to those outside, they claim to be upright gentlemen every day, yet they live as treacherous villains!"
Eunuch Yuan, holding the confession, left the hall, and soon a chorus of grievance cries arose.
Minister Cui reacted most violently, his daughter in the Inner Palace as a consort, already pregnant with the royal heir, must not lose the Holy Blessing.
"This servant is wronged, willing to prove my innocence with death!"
