You were asked to write a political intrigue drama, but you wrote "Da Ming 1566".

The big shots in the live stream began to further analyze Lü Fang's every word and action. The feeling of being left on the edge of their seats by Yan Song's previous antics surged back, even more intensely than before. "Did you all notice? Besides his incredible insight, each of Lü Fang's two sentences is packed with profound wisdom. It's so interesting." "The first sentence he said the Emperor didn't order Yan Song to kneel, and the second sentence he said the Emperor granted him a seat. But who doesn't know that Emperor Jiajing's words just now were so menacing, practically overflowing with killing intent? Would Yan Song dare not kneel?"

"And this little stool in front of the Emperor, which was originally ordered by Emperor Jiajing to be removed by Yan Song, has now been brought back by Lü Fang. In his mouth, it has become 'the Emperor bestows this seat upon you.'" "Every word Lü Fang said is exactly the same as what Yan Song said just now. The core message is: everything the Emperor does is right and all good things."

"You, Yan Song, have been kneeling for so long at your advanced age, and this has absolutely nothing to do with the Emperor. The Emperor has never made you kneel. On the contrary, he has taken pity on your old age and specially granted you a seat. The Emperor's kindness is truly as heavenly as heaven itself!"

"This seemingly insignificant detail reveals that those at the very top of the power ceiling in the Ming Dynasty had long since ingrained the act of taking the blame for the Jiajing Emperor and speaking up for him into their very bones, making it an innate instinct!"

"Whether it was the court debate in the Golden Palace or the famous scene of Hu Zongxian's audience with the emperor, if we were to talk about the average level of political maneuvering of everyone present, they would be far inferior to today's confrontation with the emperor."

"This is a true, top-tier battle of wits!"

Only at this point did Yan Song truly pass the life-or-death test set up by Emperor Jiajing, making Emperor Jiajing completely convinced that Yan Song would never do anything that would damage his reputation as a sage ruler or shake the foundation of the country.

He then slowly began to speak, inquiring about the specific situations in Chun'an and Jiande counties of Zhejiang Province from Yan Song.

Yan Song quickly composed himself and replied respectfully and methodically, saying that the two counties were currently implementing the strategy of combining reform with disaster relief, as agreed upon by the emperor and his ministers, and that the dilemma was being resolved on its own.

At this point, both the Jiajing Emperor and Lü Fang, standing beside him, understood perfectly. [Yan Song was old; he could no longer control or supervise the actions of his subordinates.] [Some things were indeed difficult for this eighty-year-old man.]

Emperor Jiajing then told Yan Song to go back and ask his son Yan Shifan what was going on in Zhejiang, and to come back and report back after he had found out.

After Yan Song shakily withdrew from the main hall, the gentle expression on Emperor Jiajing's face vanished instantly, and he slowly narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.

[Send the Imperial Guards, dressed in civilian clothes, to keep watch over Zhejiang for me.] [It looks like we'll have to arrest a few people this time.]

Such seemingly casual remarks initially failed to convey the full weight of the words to the viewers in front of the screen.

Because of the shift in the course of history in this world, the latest chapter of "《》" has been updated. Come and follow the updates on Cola Novels! Most of the viewers here are not very clear about what kind of organization the Embroidered Uniform Guard is, or what kind of power it possesses. Moreover, even in Chen Yu's previous life, many viewers didn't understand the difference between the Embroidered Uniform Guard and ordinary constables, nor did they understand why this organization could make countless high-ranking officials in the Ming Dynasty tremble with fear at the mere mention of its name.

However, in this world, Chen Yu, who produced the show, would naturally not leave such a blind spot in information. He had already made preparations to explain it clearly to all the viewers.

Just after Emperor Jiajing issued his decree, Chen Yu quietly typed out a few striking annotations on the side of the screen: [The Embroidered Uniform Guard, acting first and reporting later, is a violent agency directly under the emperor, granted special permission by imperial authority!] [When carrying the emperor's bestowed badge, the Embroidered Uniform Guard acts as if the emperor himself is present when handling cases. The cases they handle almost never involve ordinary people; they are all high-ranking officials and nobles.]

High-ranking officials of the first and second ranks, or those appointed by the imperial court, might be powerful and influential elsewhere, but before the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they could only kneel and surrender. Many were even beaten to death. It could be said that they were the nightmare of countless high-ranking officials in the Ming Dynasty!

After reading these few lines of startling annotations, the viewers in the live broadcast room belatedly realized just how terrifying the amount of information hidden in Emperor Jiajing's casual remark about sending the Embroidered Uniform Guard to Zhejiang was.

If they specifically sent people to Zhejiang to arrest someone, then whose people could they be arresting?

The previous plot made it clear that the entire officialdom in Zhejiang had long been a monolithic entity, with almost all officials, from top to bottom, being people planted by Yan's faction!

The Embroidered Uniform Guard, directly under the emperor, went to Zhejiang in a grand manner to arrest members of Yan's faction. This matter could not be kept secret. Once it spread, everyone in the world would understand one thing—Yan's faction had completely lost the emperor's favor and was no longer trusted.

Once such a powerful signal, capable of shaking the imperial court, was released, what actions would the long-dormant officials and the faction of Prince Yu take? The answer is self-evident. The massive upheaval sweeping through the entire Ming court to overthrow Yan Xishan was finally about to begin!

Only then did many viewers realize that this was the real, earth-shattering storm, the true meaning hidden behind the title of this scene, "The Storm Is Brewing!" "This storm is indeed a monstrous storm capable of overturning the entire court!"

Just as the screen was filled with comments marveling at the political turmoil, Chen Yu slowly typed the final chapter marker for Act Twenty-Four.

Yet, the subtly sharp dialogue, the suspenseful court scene, and the suffocating sense of impending doom lingered in the hearts of all viewers.

As this scene came to an end, the ranking of "Da Ming Dynasty" on the top drama lists of various platforms began to soar like a rocket breaking free of its restraints, climbing wildly upwards!

The fact that Emperor Jiajing directly dispatched this powerful imperial agency, which obeyed only his orders and had the power to act first and report later, to Zhejiang is enough to show that although Emperor Jiajing had shown leniency towards Yan Song out of consideration for their past relationship, he had completely lost trust in the entire Yan faction.
