Bab 374: The Night as Long as a Year

If the populace of Chu State, especially those officials in the imperial court, saw this scene, they would be shocked speechless.

It was normal thing to do to kneel down to the emperors, even if he was a retarded emperor; but it was the Grand Scholar Zhang who did the kneeling!

Liu Shisui was fully aware who the mastermind of this assassination attempt was and what this Grand Scholar meant to Chu State, and he felt it quite normal for this scholar to do so.

"Kill him?" Liu Shisui asked Jing Jiu for the order.

The expression didn't change on Grand Scholar Zhang's face. It seemed that he hadn't heard the request and had no intention to flee.

The fact that he came to the grand hall alone had already shown his intention.

"Don't mess things up."

Jing Jiu waved his hand to signal for the Grand Scholar to stand up.

The Grand Scholar Zhang said, "Your Majesty, it wasn't my idea."

"I know," Jing Jiu said.
