Chapter 1080: Settlement of accounts after the fall
Zhao Xuanji did speak.
But not only did he not object, he also agreed with Li Chen's decision.
This made many cabinet faction officials feel that their entire beliefs were about to collapse.
Their first reaction was whether Zhao Xuanji had already admitted defeat?
Some people were indignant, but others expressed understanding.
After all, the emperor has woken up, how can they still be jumping around?
Everyone had their own thoughts, but Li Chen didn't care what they thought.
"The elder understands the great righteousness, I am very relieved." Li Chen said lightly.
Zhao Xuanji cupped his hands to Li Chen, then glanced at Sanbao's body and sighed: "After fighting for so many years, we have lost an old opponent. It is appropriate to send him away in a glorious manner."
Li Chen nodded, acquiescing to Zhao Xuanji's words.
As the two sang and harmonized, they actually started to cooperate.
After a slight pause, Li Chen said: "Everyone, my father has indeed woken up just now and explained several important things. I also received three imperial edicts from my father. The contents of these three imperial edicts will be announced tomorrow.
The palace meeting will be announced to inform the world that the night is dark tonight, so everyone should go back and rest first."
"Wait until tomorrow, everything will be revealed naturally."
Li Chen issued an order to expel guests. It was already midnight, and it would only be a few hours until dawn.
Although the officials had complicated thoughts, they still bowed politely and went back each other with full of confusion and uneasiness.
Zhao Xuanji also took his leave first.
He walked directly into the heavy rain alone, without anyone accompanying him. Even Zhang Biwu chased after him, but he waved his hand and pushed him away. Obviously, there were too many things that happened tonight, and Mr. Ge needed some time to digest them.
In other words, he wants to go back and prepare for the next difficult situation.
The others left, but three people remained.
One is Su Zhenting, who stayed on his own initiative.
One is Chen Tong, who was asked to stay by Li Chen.
The other one is of course Su Jinpa.
If Li Chen doesn't leave, of course she can't leave.
Li Chen did not shy away from the presence of Su Zhenting and Su Jinpa, and directly said to Chen Tong: "Two things."
Chen Tong lowered his head and listened respectfully to the instruction.
"The first thing is that Dongchang will be responsible for Sanbao's funeral. You will personally supervise it. Sanbao worked hard to create Dongchang. This is the only thing he left behind, so it is natural that you should handle his funeral affairs.
"
Chen Tong nodded, but couldn't help but glance sideways at Sanbao, who was sitting at the door of the palace, lifeless, and said in a harsh voice: "The factory owner is selfless. Although he treats his subordinates harshly, he also does not lack care. Many
Everyone has been favored by the factory boss, and the factory boss has reminded Beizhi many times. Your Highness can rest assured that everyone in Beizhong and Dongchang will do their best to handle this matter."
"Um."
Li Chen nodded.
He could see that Chen Tong's words were completely sincere, and there was no intention to please him.
Therefore, Li Chen was quite satisfied.
"The second thing is that for all the officials involved in the cabinet tonight, as well as the officials exposed in various parts of the capital who have defected to the cabinet, the Jin Yiwei will go out overnight to arrest people. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."
A sentence of "kill without mercy" is full of killing.
This means that the rebellion has not completely subsided.
Also, since there is a winner or loser, there is no reason not to settle the score later.
