The Grand Empress Dowager Zheng has never been a soft-hearted person. When she spoke the last sentence, her murderous intent was palpable.
Jiang Shaohua looked at the Grand Empress Dowager Zheng: "Grandmother, I have already promised them that their lives would be spared. They will write petitions to demote themselves to commoners, and will also offer up their family fortunes to enrich the national treasury."
Wouldn't killing them achieve the same outcome?
The Grand Empress Dowager Zheng coldly snorted to herself.
Jiang Shaohua emphasized further: "Killing is a double-edged sword; it can kill others and also harm oneself. Da Liang must be governed by law and order, not by personal whims or unproven threats. If this becomes a trend, the court and palace will also fall into chaos in the future."
"Please, Grandmother, listen to me. As long as Prince Huaiyang and Prince Wu'an behave themselves, let them live!"
