Prince of Yizhou also shouted loudly, "Mother," as he rushed forward to support the Empress Dowager.
The emperor immediately snapped back to reality and said, "Come, quickly help the Empress Dowager down and summon the imperial physician."
After speaking, he also rose to escort the Empress Dowager.
Bai Shan curled his lips, and having already started, naturally it could not end so easily. He bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, I have here evidence of the Prince of Yizhou currently harboring a private army, including the location, number of soldiers, and weapons. Your Majesty, the people of Yizhou have been greatly weakened by the flood disaster five years ago, and back then nearly every household was left empty. They cannot withstand another war."
Manbao lay prostrate on the ground alongside Bai Shan, loudly pleading, "Please grant the people of Yizhou a way to live, Your Majesty!"
The emperor's expression changed slightly.
