Chapter 376: Empress Dowager's Self-respect

As long as nothing too outrageous happened in the palace, they could be left to their own devices, with the Imperial Guard Office occasionally disciplining them if necessary.

Now, they even let the emperor commit such a disgraceful act as assaulting a woman in the streets! The emperor, who had been tutored by the oldest of the Lin Family, had already been able to discern right from wrong. It seemed now that he had underestimated these minions!

How could such deep and significant influence have been exerted on the emperor? How many among them were people with ulterior motives, or deliberately leading the emperor astray with their evil intentions?

In just a short while, dozens of eunuchs and palace maids around the emperor were bound and brought before Weiyang Palace!

One after another, they cried and begged for mercy! Each was more miserable and pathetic than the last.
