Chapter 1259: The Human Dao Will Decline
Grand Secretary Song died an especially gruesome death, his body run completely through by a spear. His entire chest seemed hollowed out, but what terrified people most was that the Jinwu Guard had stood by and assisted.
That meant this matter had His Majesty's explicit permission!
"Grand Secretary Song served the Imperial Court diligently for so many years, yet His Majesty killed him just like that!"
"I heard his corpse is to be exposed for three days."
"What exactly happened? For His Majesty to be this furious, bypassing the Ministry of Punishments and Court of Judicial Review entirely to send the Jinwu Guard directly into Song Manor..."
"I heard Grand Secretary Song was blinded by greed and schemed to seize Commandery Princess Ruyi's family properties."
"Ah?!"
"Which commandery princess?"
"You probably wouldn't remember the name, but since the dynasty's founding, she is the only person allowed to receive an imperial edict standing up. You should know who that is."
