Cause "Misery loves company." In other words they are just selfish.
They have been threatened, I guess. Also, if the plan is successful, they have a chance of survival, but I think they are still going to kill them by calling it an accident so that no one will know.
Yea that’s why I said they knew they were gonna die anyway. They will die if they don’t do the Dowagers bidding but they also die if they do do it cuz 1. To hide the fact the dowager asked them to do that and 2. They lied about the astronomy reading. Wait why am I saying they? Bruh the wife got dragged into that shit she had no part just married to an unlucky person who was doomed
The unlucky thing is that they don't have any choice. Are they commoners? Poor couple.
I think they’re technically officials but I feel like if the end option is that you’re going to die anyway I wouldn’t try and bring someone innocent down with me but then again if it wasn’t them it would be someone else with the same dilemma
Wait so these people knew they were going to die anyway and they still went through with giving a bad day??? Why are you doing evil things if you know you’re going to die anyways? Wouldn’t you rather do something good that way when you die your next life will be good too? Tf??
