Many people in Kyoto City stayed up all night, and all the important officials knew about Sifang Mountain. Some remained silent, while others stayed up all night to write memorials. This was extremely disrespectful for the Eighth Prince.
There are also many official excerpts discussing the incident of Concubine Yuan Gui's collaborating with the enemy, begging the emperor to deal with it in accordance with national laws.
The morning court was extremely lively. Officials headed by Prime Minister Gao expressed their opinions on whether Ye Qianning saved the death of the eighth prince and denied her honor. As a court official and heir, it was natural for her to die for the royal family.
Yuan Yintang took the imperial order to search and rescue Sifang Mountain, and met the Eighth Prince and Qian Fanji and his party. It was not sure whether the Eighth Prince was being held hostage, and it was normal for him to have a leg.
Moreover, Qianjia has already had cases of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
It is normal for casualties to occur in the sword field. The Qian family, the Gu family, and the Zhan family surrounded and killed Yuan Yintang in front of a little kid. Is this a move that is no longer a mockery of the royal family, and is it a serious crime?
Concubine Yuan Gui did not collude with Dongsi, but was seduced by Princess Dongsi.
Another wave of officials and Prime Minister Gao had the opposite view. Concubine Yuan Gui did not like the general's lady, so she secretly asked Duke Yuan Yintang to avenge her personal vendetta and shoot the official's family members, which was not a serious crime.
Concubine Yuan Gui was not deceived. Sifang Mountain was set on fire. Whether Concubine Yuan Gui wanted to destroy the mountain is anyone's guess.
The criminal who set the fire has been taken into custody. After searching several eunuchs and royal guards, the evidence that Concubine Yuan Gui committed the crime is conclusive. If such a vicious person is not dealt with, it will be unjust.
Emperor Beili said nothing during this period, watching the group of people arguing endlessly.
Over the course of the night, things became more and more out of control, and he didn't even think of a suitable solution.
The morning debate lasted from dawn to noon. During this period, all officials learned that Dean Chen and Qianjia had renounced their nationality. They were shocked. When they learned that the lady of the General's Mansion was not allowed to be buried in Beili, all the officials were speechless.
Those who disagreed and those who disagreed looked at Emperor Beili in shock. What happened?
The emperor actually carried out such a cruel decree. All the children died and were not allowed to be buried in peace. Even Prime Minister Gao, who hated Ye Qianning, was speechless.
The indignant voice just now faded away, and at that moment, it became clear to everyone what it means to be ruthless as an emperor.
"Your Majesty, Dean Chen is a highly respected person. Removing nationality is too hasty. I ask Your Majesty to think again."
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
Immediately afterwards, all the civil and military officials also reacted and knelt down one after another. Even the officials who had been shouting just now knelt down.
"There is no room for maneuver in this matter. Bei Li Rong has to respect the emperor's orders." Emperor Bei Li was resolute and wanted to use this matter to warn everyone that imperial power is not God's.
"The Emperor is here, what about Concubine Yuan Gui? The evidence is clear that the Emperor is still not dealing with it. The Eighth Prince has arrived at Yin Yamen in the Ming Dynasty. Has the Emperor lost the support of the people by asking for help?" The minister of Dali Temple raised his head and spoke a little more indignantly.
"Dean Chen made the mistake of the emperor and saved his life. Because of Concubine Yuan Gui's collusion with the enemy, the emperor removed the dean's nationality. Concubine Yuan Gui still sits back and relaxes. Dongguan refuses to accept such punishment, so he pleases the emperor to treat her equally."
"Please treat everyone equally."
The people headed by Prime Minister Gao no longer defended themselves at this time, and in unison they begged the emperor to punish him severely.
Emperor Beili was silent. At noon, he watched the Eastern courtiers arguing, and occasionally said a word or two. After learning that Dean Chen had left his country, he said:
The attitudes of all the officials were visibly unified, which made Emperor Beili even more vigilant.
Eunuch Li came from behind and secretly handed a note to Emperor Beili.
Emperor Beili took it over and opened it, with a gloomy expression on his face. The matter had become so serious overnight.
