Liu Zhao's decree indeed had an effect, it did not cause any upheaval in the court.
Gu Xi's political acumen was indeed sufficient.
Moreover, he was deeply influenced by Gu Kang's scholarship.
He had participated in advising and strategizing in the Great Han's governmental system.
Especially now, with the assistance of so many people.
He would naturally make no mistakes while governing.
All policies proceeded as usual.
Yet, even so, the gloom over the entire Great Han court did not dissipate.
In this feudal era, there is no way around it.
The Emperor having no heir and being ill, such an impact is hard to smooth over in other ways.
The most crucial point is—
There was no sign of improvement in Liu Zhao's health whatsoever.
Even more, before long, he showed signs of critical illness.
The impact on the entire Great Han was unimaginable.
Even Gu Xi was confused and disoriented.
After all, he was not Gu Kang; the two were completely different in terms of limits.
