The sunlight shines brightly, illuminating the majestic scenery of Gen Yue Imperial Garden.
Shen Yue arrived outside Lanxiu Pavilion, where Han Shizhong greeted him cautiously and asked, "Brother, what exactly has happened?"
The group outside the pavilion, including Han Shizhong, had been enduring unexpected events. They managed to stay calm when witnessing Geng Nanzhong being expelled, but when Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng were dragged out, not only them but even the palace ladies outside turned pale, feeling as if the world were being turned upside down.
Shen Yue spoke briefly, "The Six Villains have mostly been removed. Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng have been demoted to commoners." Pointing to Zong Ze, Shen Yue introduced, "This is the newly appointed Deputy Privy Council Envoy, Lord Zong Ze."
Han Shizhong stood in reverence and said, "So it's Lord Zong?"
Shen Yue was slightly surprised, "Brother Han knows Lord Zong?"
