At the morning court session this day, Su Juan was drowsy because she had been chatting with Shen Ruhui all night.
Due to the matter of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, several freeloaders from the same ministry were also implicated, each of them connected to another.
The Old Emperor maintained a stern face at the top, while the Right Imperial Censor from the Imperial Examination Office was making a report, requesting the Old Emperor to issue a decree for a thorough investigation.
Many people panicked, fearing that if a thorough investigation were conducted, it might lead back to them, so they immediately tried to dissuade him.
One side of the courtiers strongly advised, saying the Ministry of Justice is crucial to the nation; many major cases occur each year, and until they are rectified, the court cannot rest easy, so delays are unacceptable.
