Under these circumstances, the fact that the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Li Buan, would step forward—and even personally intervene—was truly beyond everyone's expectations.
In fact, all the ministers had already made a decision in secret: they would not intervene in this war. Or rather, they would no longer assist Emperor Yuanwu Zhou Di.
They had even planned it all out: once Emperor Yuanwu Zhou Di was dead and the Great Zhou Imperial Palace had been breached, they would find a way to select a new emperor.
Then, a new emperor would ascend the throne, establish a completely new Court, and appease the people. In a few years, they could once again gather the Emperor Dragon Qi to protect the Nine Provinces Land.
But as it turned out, Li Buan was actually going to make a move.
However, upon careful thought, they all realized why.
