Taking a deep breath, Dongfang Chen said coldly: "Since it hasn't taken effect yet, it can't be considered as breaking away from the Yuwen family. Besides, the Yuwen family's collaboration with the enemy and treason was something that happened at the beginning of last year. At that time, the Yuwen family in Zhuozhou
We haven’t broken away from them yet, so there’s no guarantee that there won’t be people inside who are colluding with Yu Wennan and others.”
Dongfang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a hint of anxiety: "Your Majesty, logically speaking, as long as there are witnesses present and the words of severing ties are said, it will count. Moreover, the circumstances at that time were special, and it was understandable that the document could not be signed immediately.
Yes, it is a bit too cruel to execute them because of speculation. Please forgive me. If the emperor wants to blame me, blame me for not bringing this document to the capital earlier and delaying the matter."
Dongfang Chen snorted in his heart and thought to himself, the reward is better than the singing. If you are punished, you will establish a good image in front of the people of sacrificing yourself for the people.
Thinking this in his heart, Dongfang Chen said in a loving tone: "Thirteenth brother is serious. What does this have to do with thirteenth brother? It's just that I am really afraid that the Yuwen family in Zhuozhou is also harboring traitors, so I bear the pain.
This kind of purpose is all for the Great Yuan. I hope my thirteenth brother can understand my painstaking efforts."
"Brother Imperial, this is wrong." Unexpectedly, Dongfang Xu not only refused to give Dongfang Chen face, but also retorted directly, "An earthquake just happened in Zhuozhou, and now people are really panicked. It is the time to comfort them vigorously. If Brother Imperial
Now there is no real evidence, and executing the entire Yuwen clan based on mere speculation will leave a bad impact on the people. Moreover, such a huge disaster has just happened in my Yuan Dynasty, and my vitality has been severely damaged, so we really shouldn't commit murder again."
Dongfang Xu's words made Dongfang Chen speechless. Dongfang Xu meant that he was too cruel and had no morals and incompetence, which led to disasters from heaven, and he still didn't know how to restrain himself.
"..." Dongfang Chen's face was livid, and he stared at Dongfang Xu who was kneeling below him without blinking.
Dongfang Xu lowered his head, straightened his back, and insisted on his position with a firm posture.
Dongfang Chen didn't speak, feeling the explosive factor in the air, and the officials didn't even dare to express their opinions. However, there are always those who are not afraid of death and can't help but stand up and express their opinions.
"Your Majesty, I think King Xu is right. Since the Yuwen family in Zhuozhou has severed ties with the Yuwendong family, strictly speaking, they are not implicated. Moreover, a great disaster just occurred in my country. Master Huiqing asked the emperor to eat fast frequently.
Recite the Buddha's name, work diligently and love the people, and do not commit murder easily. Therefore, I think it is better to spare the rest of the Yuwen family." Grand Master Wang stepped forward, with his gray beard raised, and said in a loud voice.
Dongfang Chen's face suddenly turned dark blue.
Although he knew that Taishi Wang was definitely doing it for his own good and that of Dayuan, every time Wang Taishi stood up and contradicted him in person, he still wanted to strangle this stubborn old man to death.
Taifu Li hesitated for a moment and then stood up, "Your Majesty, I think that innocent people should naturally set up a coup. However, in order to avoid letting those treasonous traitors go and save trouble in the future, I suggest that His Royal Highness Prince Xu take a closer look.
We will conduct a careful investigation to make sure there are no other traitors before we can let him go."
Mr. Li can be said to be a tactful person, and he always tries to neutralize things when he speaks out.
