Mordecai, now in Haman’s position, is regarded with respect and honor. We could infer that Mordecai did not rule in the same way as Haman. He most likely ruled by giving respect to others and guiding them in mutual respect. And even though the original edict was allowed to go forward (as dictated by Persian law), so was the second edict, which allowed the jewish people to repel any threats. You’ll notice that the people of the surrounding areas helped the Jews against anyone who would attack them because Mordecai had grown in power and they feared a reprisal.
