The position you stand in, apart from upholding the Empire's dignity, is also, as you said, to maintain its stability. If public sentiment is unstable, how can the Empire remain stable, regardless of its dignity?
You may have forcibly suppressed matters with military force this time, but what about later? If the people's resentment and the seeds of hatred take deep root, the terror and carnage that will erupt in the future will be extreme!
How then can you genuinely maintain the Empire's dignity and stability?
The Demonic Queen and treacherous officials have already seized control of the court. The people suffer and are displaced. Yet, you stand aside, enjoying royal benefits, indifferent to their plight. Isn't this pure selfishness? And you dare to speak of loyalty to the Empire.
If you were truly for the Empire, you would not have allowed this situation where it has completely lost the people's hearts.
