A big event recently took place in Tiandu City: the Zhou Family has fallen!
Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Chuanbing, was stripped of his official hat and thrown into the Imperial Prison!
The Sky Scale Guard raided his home, detaining all family members of the Zhou Mansion and confiscating assets that filled five horse-drawn carriages!
For a time, the Capital City was shaken!
In recent years, with fierce party strife, it's not uncommon for officials to be brought down.
But for a Standard Third Rank Third-Level High Official, the second-in-command of the Ministry of Revenue to collapse without warning, it truly sent chills down people's spines!
However, this was just the beginning.
On the following day, thirteen Imperial Censors from the Imperial Examination Hall jointly submitted a petition to impeach several officials from the Six Ministries, even the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice was implicated!
