In the last few days, Chang'an had mysteriously whipped up a campaign to purge treacherous officials.
The spearhead pointed directly at Minister of Justice Li Xuanjing.
For nearly twenty years, the matter of Li Xuanjing being a corrupt official, in both the court and among the common people, had been an indisputable fact.
Many had sought to eliminate this treacherous figure, but all had failed without exception.
To this day, Li Xuanjing remains active in the court, and although the common people would curse these miscreants behind their backs and accuse them of filling the court with foul smoke, they dare not discuss it too openly.
However, these past few days, things had begun to change.
The evil deeds once committed by Li Xuanjing were being unearthed one by one and wildly spread throughout Chang'an.
While the common people had no way to handle such a powerful figure, once public opinion was fully aroused, it was not easy to quell.
