Generally speaking, officials in the outer court and eunuchs in the inner court, especially the imperial guards, are naturally at odds with each other. If the imperial guards are in trouble, the outer court will definitely watch the joke and even applaud.
This time, although there was some gloating, many people were also worried.
First there were rumors that the emperor was going to force donations again, and then there was news that the emperor insisted on moving south. Against this background, the emperor suddenly confiscated the property of the three most powerful eunuchs. This was really a sign of the coming storm!
There will be a grand court meeting tomorrow, and we don’t know what will happen.
Inside the Censorate on the west side of West Chang'an Street, the Left Censor-in-Chief was writing a secret memorial to be presented to the emperor alone; inside the Daming Gate, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was also writing a memorial to be used in tomorrow's grand court meeting.
