"Silence!" Zhang Sheng glared with wide eyes, sternly rebuking, "How is the majesty of His Majesty something the likes of you can comment on so presumptuously?"
The civil official, however, was as resolute as if he had swallowed an iron weight, and retorted without showing any weakness: "Could it be that what this subordinate says is wrong? No matter what kind of trouble the various princes and imperial sons stir up, aren't they all forcibly suppressed in the end under the pretext of maintaining so-called prestige?"
Hearing this, Zhang Sheng could not help falling into a brief silence. Thinking carefully about it, what this official said was indeed true. Not long ago, a raging fire broke out in the Holy Capital, and after a thorough investigation, it was unexpectedly found to be linked to a certain imperial son currently residing in the capital. However, His Majesty chose to make a major matter minor, treating it merely as an ordinary fire incident. Not only that, even the head of the commander responsible for guarding the security of the capital was spared.
