The officials realized that although the emperor had just ascended the throne, his aura had already taken shape.
Just by sitting there, he gave off the aura of an emperor.
The former Emperor Shangguan Hong did not have this kind of majesty.
After realizing this, the officials were all shocked and could not help but restrain their expressions.
He was afraid that he would be rude in front of the hall and anger Tian Yan.
The leaders of the officials were Left Prime Minister Tong Zhili, Right Prime Minister Wang Hongxuan, and Chief Assistant Li Wenbo.
The six ministers followed behind.
Shangguan Lin swept his gaze across the crowd and then looked at two of the officials.
Both of them were very young, but their official ranks were not low.
One of them was Han Fei, the current left assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.
One of them was Zhang Liang, the current Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the second in command.
Shangguan Lin gave a signal. Eunuch Wang Wen stepped forward and said loudly,""If there's anything, report it. If there's nothing, withdraw!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the chief assistant, Li Wenbo, stood out from the queue and said loudly,"Your Majesty, I have something to report.”
"What is it?"
"Your Majesty!"
Li Wenbo said respectfully," This humble subject impeaches the Governor of the East Chamber, Cao Zhengchun, for abusing his power for personal gain.”
"When the late emperor was in power, he suppressed the East Chamber with all his might, preventing the eunuchs from causing trouble.”
"I think that Your Majesty should follow the old rules and learn from the previous emperor.”
"Otherwise, the eunuchs will cause trouble in the future and will definitely frame loyal officials and good generals, causing chaos in the court and making the world uneasy.”
"Lord Chief is right, I agree.”
"I agree."
"I also agree."
“......”
After Li Wenbo finished speaking, more than a dozen ministers stepped forward and asked Shangguan Lin to dismiss the East Chamber.
This person's influence in the Imperial Court was indeed huge. With a single word, all the officials agreed.
The Prime Minister's Party, led by the Left and Right Prime Ministers, did not object this time.
When the late emperor was in power, the two parties fought.
When one party spoke, the other party would definitely speak out against it, and it was often extremely noisy.
But this time, they didn't say a word.
This was because the target this time was the eunuch party, the common enemy of both parties.
Getting rid of the eunuchs would benefit both parties.
"Using his power for personal gain and attacking those who are of the same party. I wonder whose personal gain he is plotting? Which mutant did you kill?"
Shangguan Lin looked at Li Wenbo and chuckled.""It has only been seven days since I reopened the East Chamber, and the East Chamber has already used its power for personal gain and attacked those who are of the same party.”
"Your Majesty, I'm talking about the Commander of the Imperial Army, Feng Shaojie."
"Feng Shaojie has been the commander of the Imperial Army for many years. He is loyal and has worked hard.”
"Yesterday, the eunuchs entered the house and plundered it. They were arrested in public and lost all face.”
"This action not only shows the arrogance and despotism of the eunuchs, but also proves the evil consequences of the eunuchs gaining power.”
"Thus, I believe that the East Chamber cannot be reopened.”
"Your Majesty is wise and mighty. Please punish Cao Zhengchun severely and ban the East Chamber to stabilize the court and the hearts of the people.”
"Chief Li's suggestion is reasonable, please accept it, Your Majesty.”
"I agree."
"I also agree."
“......”
Shangguan Lin sneered as he looked at the kneeling officials.
"Chief Li is really well-informed. It's just that he's old and his mind is muddled.”
"Your Majesty, what do you mean? I don't understand."
"If you don't understand, then I'll let you understand.”
"Men, bring Drew here!”
As soon as Shangguan Lin finished speaking, the two imperial guards who had been waiting outside the throne room dragged the wounded Shaojie into the throne room.
He looked at the scarred and injured Drew.
The hearts of all the officials trembled, and fear welled up in their hearts.
The East Chamber was still the same East Chamber. It had been silent for six years, and its methods were still cruel.
This made the ministers even more determined to ban the East Chamber.
"The ministers present should not know yet, right? No, some people should know.”
Shangguan Lin swept a cold glance at the officials and said coldly,""Yesterday, it was Zhen's decree that the East Chamber raided the Feng Mansion.”
"The East Chamber isn't the only one behind this. Vice Marshal Zhang Han is also involved.”
"Everyone, do you know how much gold and silver you stole from the Feng Residence?”
The civil and military officials did not answer and lowered their heads.
Shangguan Lin looked at Chief Li Wenbo and asked,""Chief Li, can you guess?”
Li Wenbo shook his head." I don't know. Please tell me, Your Majesty."”
"A total of eight million taels of silver!"
Shangguan Lin roared and threw the account book from the table, hitting the head of the chief assistant, Li Wenbo.
Seeing the Emperor's thunderous rage, the civil and military officials all knelt down and kowtowed, asking the Emperor to calm down.
"Chief Lee, where do you think these gold and silver came from with Drew's salary?”
"Such a person can actually be considered to have worked hard and made great contributions?”
Shangguan Lin looked at Li Wenbo and asked in a deep voice,""Or is it that you also have a share of this gold and silver?”
"I heard that Chief Lee and Drew used to be very close. Is that why you're pleading for him?”
"No, no, no. I don't dare. I'm afraid.”
Li Wenbo repeatedly kowtowed, cold sweat already oozing out of his forehead.
When Tian Zi was enraged, his emperor might was simply too terrifying.
