This time, Chu's innate talent was still his previous generous articulation.
And this time's battle of wits with the scholars was obviously more justified.
Previously, he had modified the Green Seed Law, which resulted in a loss for the country, causing the Emperor to lose trust in him. Although his intentions were good, he indeed had to take the blame for the outcome.

He was trying to reform the administration!
The problem with the administration was apparent to everyone, and the Emperor was well aware of it, which is why he had agreed to his proposal.
With that being the case, the arguments of these people were simply self-defeating!
How could they say the measures were too drastic, or that there was no gradual implementation? I obviously started with very mild aspects, didn't I? It's not like I said to dismiss all unqualified officials right from the start—is even dismissing some unacceptable?
