Chu Xuanchen also said, "Emperor, you can't kill Aunt Bing. Once you deal with her, I'm afraid the commoners will talk about it even more. Everyone will think that the emperor is guilty and will link the princess' poisoning to the emperor. "
"His Highness The Emperor of Li is right. If you want to protect the emperor's reputation, you must keep Aunt Bing. Not only do you have to keep her, you also have to let her live in the Emperor of Li's residence until the princess' child is safely born. This will tell the world that the emperor really cares about the princess, that's why he sent Aunt Bing to take care of her. This way, the rumors will be dispelled. "Tian Zhang also quickly said.
Hearing everyone's words, Hongyuan Emperor also discovered that he couldn't kill Aunt Bing.
Logically speaking, if she did this kind of thing, she would definitely die.
But she couldn't die now. If she died, wouldn't people suspect that he killed her to silence her?
Moreover, Yun Ruoyue's child couldn't have anything happen at this juncture. If something happened, everyone would suspect him.
Therefore, on the surface, he had to send people to protect Yun Ruoyue and protect her child. At the very least, he had to let the child be safely born to dispel everyone's doubts.
As for whether the child would die after being born, it had nothing to do with him as the emperor.
He said, "Alright then. Since Aunt Bing was forced into a corner, I will spare your life for the time being. You can continue to work in the Emperor of Li's residence. You must take good care of The Princess of Li and don't let down zhen's good intentions. "
"Yes, emperor. This servant thanks the emperor for his kindness." Aunt Bing's eyes were filled with tears as she kowtowed to Hongyuan Emperor.
After she finished kowtowing, Yun Ruoyue quickly helped her lie down on the stretcher.
At this time, Grand Tutor Han pointed at the refugees and said, "Emperor, how should we deal with these refugees?"
"They dared to spread rumors and damage zhen's reputation. Of course, they should be executed without leaving a single one alive!" Hongyuan Emperor angrily said.
When the refugees heard this, they were all afraid and begged for mercy.
Chu Xuanchen said, "Emperor, this subject doesn't think it should be done. If we kill them like this, it will arouse even more public anger and they will think that the emperor is silencing them. This subject has a method that can appease the people's resentment and also help Your Majesty win the hearts of the people. "
"Oh, what method?" Hongyuan Emperor asked.
Chu Xuanchen said, "Your Majesty can send the Jing Zhaoyin to spread a notice in the city, saying that these several refugees are spreading rumors. When the time came, he would have them go to the city to apologize and admit their wrongs. They would say that they had suffered a natural disaster and didn't have enough to eat or warm clothes. They hated the emperor very much and spread these rumors. After they admitted their mistakes, the emperor learned the truth. He took pity on them and magnanimously forgave them. "
"When the common people hear that Your Majesty is still magnanimous after being framed, they will praise Your Majesty even more. When the time came, he would have the capital governor tell the people that it wasn't that the Emperor didn't care about the disaster victims, but that as soon as he heard about the flood in Jiangnan, he was actively preparing food. It takes time to prepare the food. Once the food is prepared, the emperor will send an imperial envoy to provide relief. This way, the people can be appeased, and the emperor can gain the support of the people. This is a good thing for the emperor and the country. "
The reason why he came up with this idea for the emperor was to quickly pacify the people's resentment.
He wanted the common people to be peaceful and didn't want the common people to cause trouble.
As long as the emperor and empress stopped harming the Yue'er, he would stop.
Hongyuan Emperor thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, then let's do it according to The Emperor of Li's idea. Let these refugees go!"
"Your Majesty is magnanimous. This subject thanks Your Majesty for showing mercy." The refugees quickly knelt down to thank the emperor. They had a frightened expression as if they had just survived a disaster.
In fact, they were all The Emperor of Li's hidden guards in disguise. They were well-trained and didn't care about life and death.
