"Uncle Wen, there's no need to be kind and gentle when dealing with such traitors; otherwise, the only one who gets hurt is oneself."
"I'm well aware of that. There's no need to discuss this matter further. Let's talk about the food and provisions instead; that's what's truly urgent." Liu Xiu had already made up his mind and didn't even listen to Han Yu's words, let alone those of Yin Shi. It was just that he still held onto benevolence and righteousness, and couldn't bring himself to act ruthlessly without concrete evidence when it was all just suspicion.
Seeing Liu Xiu act this way, Yin Shi felt powerless, but he would not allow anyone who threatened his interests to exist. Since Liu Xiu wouldn't act, it was up to him to take action in private.
