The incident that occurred at the Imperial Music Bureau the day before yesterday has spread throughout the Capital City and naturally cannot escape the awareness of these court officials.
Committing violence in public and attempting to harm members of the Imperial Family, what kind of concept is this?
At best, it’s a crime of disobedience, at worst, it’s trampling on the dignity of the Imperial Family; a charge of grave disrespect would not be excessive!
And the perpetrator is none other than the Young Master of the Chen Family, who has been in the limelight lately!
"He slayed two Heavenly Demons and brought down Vice Minister Zhou. I had thought he had great abilities, but it turns out he is just a reckless brute without any strategy."
"Chen Mo is doomed this time. Even with a Death Exemption Token, he certainly won’t keep his official hat!"
"Hmph, such actions by the son, Chen Zhuo, as the father, is not entirely blameless either!"
"Haha, the Imperial Examination Hall and the Six Divisions, that group of green chits, aren’t they usually very arrogant? How come now they’re all silent?"
The officials of the Six Ministries crossed their arms, their expressions full of mockery.
Conversely, the officials on the left appeared as if spellbound, each hanging their heads, silent and speechless.
Ever since Zhou Chuanbing stepped down, they had exploited various issues to gain a dominant position in court.
But now, with Chen Mo causing this scandal, it has granted the Six Ministries an opportunity, and the advantages just gained may also be lost as a result!
"What enmity did Young Master Chen have with the Princely Heir to employ such ruthless measures?"
"This is truly foolish..."
"Indeed, Chen Mo’s efforts bring prosperity, but his failures bring ruin..."
Everyone sighed repeatedly, their faces clouded with gloom.
Yu Huai from the Ministry of Personnel furrowed his brow slightly, feeling that things weren’t so simple.
"During the capital assessment back then, I had interactions with Chen Mo; he is definitely not the impulsive type. There must be hidden circumstances behind this..."
"Saying these now holds little meaning, as Chen Mo’s assault on the Princely Heir is a fact, and dismissal is already the best outcome..."
"Now the priority is to minimize the losses, even if some concessions are made; Mr. Chen must not be involved..."
Chen Zhuo has remained silent throughout, as motionless as a rock, his eyelids drooping with no sign of emotion.
Dong——
The sound of a bell echoed.
The bustling atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
The officials, arranged by rank, walked over the Golden Water Bridge in succession.
Yan Peizhi walked beside Chen Zhuo, pointedly saying: "Mr. Chen, you’ve certainly raised a good son."
This scene seemed familiar.
Back when Zhou Chuanbing was about to step down, similar words were spoken.
Chen Zhuo remained silent, only quietly observing Yan Peizhi with eyes showing a hint of... pity?
Yan Peizhi frowned at the sight, feeling a vague unease.
But he quickly suppressed this feeling.
"Heh, it’s merely feigned composure."
