The hall was silent for a couple of breaths before suddenly becoming bustling.
Recently, Wei Shu's temper was not good, and the whole court knew it.
But he wouldn't kill someone for no reason.
Mostly, he would scold and mentally oppress, or at worst, demote.
To open his mouth and call for a killing like this was unprecedented!
The guards had already entered the hall, and, following Wei Shu's instructions, were dragging down the Imperial Censor.
After the initial shock, the people reacted. The Duke of Qi was the first to step out and kneel: "Your Majesty, please reconsider, Lord Zhang was only thinking of Dayue, Your Majesty must not act rashly!"
Killing an Imperial Censor was not a small matter.
Especially since this Imperial Censor's words had legitimate grounds, meant for the country and its people.
If killed like this in the hall, it would greatly impact Wei Shu's reputation for heroism.
This reputation was hard to build but very easy to destroy.
