Under the blatant favoritism of the empress, who would dare to lay a hand on Shen Qi? Wouldn't that be like courting death? So even though Shen Qi disrupted the interests of many people, she could still stay well in Qing City. Who made the empress pleased? Who made Shen Qi have the Minister of Personnel, the mother-in-law, as the highest official? With such a strong background, no one dared to act against her. They could only obediently follow her orders.
But then again, this was also Shen Qi. Only she dared to make so many moves against various forces in just a month and still manage to control the situation. If it were someone else, they would probably have been conspired against and killed long ago.
