Simply put, they don't believe this was the Empress's doing and need to investigate further.
Empress Wang's maternal family is at the core of the Guanlong group.
The entire Guanlong group is intertwined; any minor disturbance affects the whole. Their interests are of concern to many, thus they will naturally intervene.
As long as someone raises the issue in court, Zhangsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang, as entrusted ministers, have enough influence to oppose it and turn the focus towards a thorough investigation.
The positions of other ministers on this matter are similar.
Among these people, many are newly appointed officials with limited experience, unable to grasp the implications immediately.
With an impartial heart, they believe this matter should be handled with caution.
The confrontation involving the entire court is thus temporarily set aside amidst this struggle.

He only revealed a slight attitude.
