Ye Chengyan continued discussing the ministers who had forced him to voluntarily abdicate in the Qianlong Side Hall: "At the beginning, it was naturally Elder Cao. Not only him, but his family and students, I will kill them all! Elder Xu, Li Ge'lao, the six ministers... They shouldn't think they can escape either!"
The embarrassment and grievance from that day still lingered in his memory!
He had initially planned to use the seven hearts leaf to control these ministers and secure his throne.
But now, with the Chu family planning to flee and seek external aid, he, the illegitimate Prince of Wu'an, would face retribution from the royal family.
Given this, why not go mad and eliminate all those who had humiliated him?
