The matter of going to war outside the Great Wall had been completely decided, and the pro-peace faction in the court also followed Zhao Shengshan's example and knelt on the ground outside the imperial study.
However, the emperor had been planning this matter for a long time, so how could he change his mind because of the pressure from a group of court officials?
The incident lasted for half a month, and even when Zhao Shengshan and Lu Hengzhi set off, the emperor still did not waver at all.
Although several old ministers had known the emperor's intention for a long time, they were still saddened. They felt that rashly sending troops would be a sign of the country's demise, and they even wanted to bump into their master in the morning court to show their determination.
Fortunately, Nathaniel Lu had made a judgment in advance, and he and the people around him held down several old ministers, thus avoiding a bloody incident.
