Chapter 1487 Chaos

Just at this moment, Xu Jie thought a lot. However, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Even if Emperor Longqing understood his plan, he had to force it. So, in the confusion of the ministers, Xu Jie spoke loudly:

"Your Majesty, in the foolish opinion of the old minister, according to the will of the late emperor, the ministers who were punished for advice should be given a general amnesty. The deceased should be given a pension, and the remaining ones should be summoned. Those who are in prison should be released and reinstated immediately."

After the words came, Xu Jie lowered his head slightly and waited quietly.

There was silence in the Huangji Palace, and the needles could be heard.

Xu Jie was also uneasy, but he still firmly believed that Emperor Longqing would agree, even if Gao Gong or Luo Xin had already told Emperor Longqing about the consequences of doing so. However, that was just a telling, just a prediction, but it did not happen. Since it did not happen, Emperor Longqing might not think that he would fall into that field.

Any emperor has that confidence. How could a generation of emperor be controlled by his subjects?

This is how people are. When things are not coming, they always don’t believe them. They always think about the good side and the good side. When the real result comes, it’s too late to regret it.

Since Emperor Longqing would not believe in this result, Emperor Longqing would not endure the liquidation of Emperor Jiajing. It was because Emperor Longqing had enough of a humiliating life when Emperor Jiajing was alive. He and Emperor Jiajing had no father-son relationship at all, but had huge grudges.

Also, when Emperor Longqing was King Yu, he had only been involved in the government affairs for more than a year. He had been excluded from the government affairs by Emperor Jiajing before. It can be said that the entire Ming Dynasty was influenced by Emperor Jiajing, and Emperor Longqing had no influence at all. He needed to eliminate the influence of Emperor Jiajing and demonstrate his influence. This way, the old minister who was demoted by Emperor Jiajing was a shortcut.

More importantly, Emperor Longqing had already agreed to the will drawn by Xu Jie, but if he did not implement it now, he would be unkind and filial and untrustworthy.

Therefore, Xu Jie had a seven-point belief in his heart that Emperor Longqing would eventually agree to his memorial.

but……

Emperor Longqing still didn't say anything, just stared straight at Xu Jie's forehead. He remembered Luo Xin's words, don't promise anything, you can wait for others to jump out. Even if no one else jumped out, you can refuse to think for two days and retreat to the court first.

At this time, Emperor Longqing didn't know how to make a decision. On the one hand, he was afraid of being undermined by Xu Jie, and on the other hand, as Xu Jie analyzed, he was unable to make up his mind.

Since he couldn't make up his mind, he would do as Luo Xin, staring at Xu Jie's forehead, and treat him as a cabbage.

Xu Jie waited for a while, and when he saw Emperor Longqing without saying a word, he secretly looked up at Emperor Longqing. When he saw Emperor Longqing staring at him directly, he couldn't see what the meaning was in his eyes, so he tried to call:

"His Majesty……"

At this time, Emperor Longqing also reacted and could not stop talking. After all, Xu Jie was not really a cabbage. But he still looked at Luo Xin habitually. Luo Xin gave a look and pointed his eyes at Gao Gong. Emperor Longqing looked at Gao Gong.

"Your Majesty!" Gao Gong didn't notice Emperor Longqing's gaze at this time. He could not help it anymore and immediately walked out and said:

"Your Majesty, I think this fashion is up to be discussed."

"Hu..." Emperor Longqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Luo Xin asked him to wait. Finally, when someone jumped out, he nodded and said:

"speak!"
