PAID Chapter 181
Not only Duke Han, but Duke Zhou, Duke Zhao, and Duke Chu also faced the same dilemma.
In utter helplessness, to ensure they didn't follow in the footsteps of Duke Qin and cause irreparable consequences, like the bloody massacre at the West Gate vegetable market, they decided to emulate Duke Wei and resign to live in seclusion.
The four of them, without prior discussion, coincidentally arrived outside the palace to request an audience with the emperor.
To avoid any unforeseen complications.
However, to their great surprise, the emperor did not meet them, instead using the excuse of being unwell to dismiss them.
This left the four of them feeling anxious and uneasy.
"What does His Majesty mean by this? Why won't he see us?"
"How would I know? Who can fathom the emperor's thoughts these days?"
"So, what should we do?"
"Tomorrow morning, at court, we should resign together and retire, just like Duke Wei did. What do you think?"
One proposed, and the other three hesitated.
Resigning in front of all the civil and military officials would be a huge loss of face for them.
Moreover, they were not like Duke Wei, who could truly give up everything.
If they resigned in court, wouldn't they be compared to Duke Wei?
