Both party leaders submitted their resignations simultaneously, which was an outcome that no one had anticipated.
Inside the Marquis Mansion, Yang Zhenshan sat in his study, holding a hand stove.
Wu Zheng sat next to the brazier, warming his hands.
"Do you know why they resigned?" Yang Zhenshan asked softly.
Wu Zheng shook his head, "I don't know the specifics, but I suspect it's the Emperor's doing!"
Yang Zhenshan nodded slightly; the only person capable of making Zhou Yunsong and Song Yuange resign at the same time was Emperor Yanping.
"It seems that His Majesty still has a strong grip over the court!"
Don't be fooled by the heated disputes among those officials in the court; in reality, it is Emperor Yanping who truly controls it.
The seventh year of Yanping is upon us. In six years, Emperor Yanping has completely taken control of the court.
Although such an outcome is somewhat unexpected, it is also within reason.
