King Jie seemed very confident in his success, so confident that there must be some unknown hidden plan.
Without understanding what this hidden plan is, the Emperor felt uneasy.
He informed a few ministers to hear their opinions. Bringing such a vague and incomplete matter to the court could cause panic or be exploited by those with ulterior motives, which would not be good.
Thus, the Emperor exercised caution upon caution.
"What King Jie relies on is nothing but the Emperor's tolerance. The so-called 'remove a weed by its roots,' if King Jie loses his life, what success is there to speak of?" The Grand Tutor was the first to speak.
The Grand Tutor was the Emperor's mentor, having supported him up to now, and held significant weight in the Emperor's mind.
The Emperor would heed some of his words, but when it came to King Jie's life or death, the Emperor could not listen.
Killing King Jie is easy, but to remove him by the roots, one must first know where the roots are.
