Chapter 354: All Thanks to Zhaozhao

The empress passed away, and the entire country mourned.

What was surprising was that Emperor Jingyuan was unwilling to bury the Empress in the imperial tomb.

According to the laws of Great Jing, only the empress who was not worthy of the position could not enter the imperial tomb. Therefore, Emperor Jingyuan's actions angered a group of radical officials led by the Su family.

Emperor Jingyuan pushed back the memorials handed over by the courtiers indifferently.

More importantly, Emperor Jingyuan's health had improved.

This was not a good thing for some people in the imperial court.

They were already used to a muddle-headed and incompetent emperor. Now that the emperor had become diligent and loved the people, they naturally could not adapt.

Once the sovereign became a wise ruler, those officials who had been sitting around and eating could no longer sit still.
