Zhao Xian lifted the corners of his wrinkled eyes, cautiously observing the expression of Emperor Qianxi.
"Mr. Lu has been managing for many years, his old subordinates are scattered throughout the court and the government."
"We might as well use this matter to test his limits, and then gradually gather his old subordinates."
Zhao Xian bowed in the hall, a sinister light flickering in his murky eyes: "For this, I have already planned carefully for Your Majesty, surely this great threat will be resolved."
His withered fingers trembled slightly within his sleeves, yet his voice remained unusually steady.
"Firstly, in tomorrow's morning court, use the excuse of the prison being broken into, and force Mr. Lu to give an explanation in front of the entire court."
"Secondly, in the name of purging the treasonous faction, gradually reclaim the military power of the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Guards in Qian Ning City to be controlled by Your Majesty's trusted aides."
