After hearing Tuotuo's statement, the Imperial Censor stubbornly began to speak out against Tuotuo. However, before Tuotuo could respond, Tuotuo's top War General and Minister of the Ministry of Personnel stepped forward and said, "Absurd! Lord Prime Minister, borrowing Dharma Ba was also for relieving the nation's worries. How could this be a crime? Although there were some mistakes in handling the matter, Your Majesty should consider that Lord Prime Minister is wholeheartedly devoted to public service and should not be overly criticized."
"Otherwise, it would chill the hearts of all court officials."
The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel's faction stepped forward, and immediately a number of followers joined in, saying, "We support this."
"We all support this!"
The Emperor noticed Tuotuo's ability to rally support and frowned slightly, feeling dissatisfied. He sensed that they were disregarding the Emperor's authority completely—was this a coup attempt?
