"Resolve the impeachments first, then discuss countermeasures..."
This sentence quickly rippled through the entire court. The officials present were sharp, and they immediately caught the implication. If Fan Jingwen had intended to support Fang Yuegong, he would have found a way to bypass the impeachment and move straight to discussing strategies, rather than demanding the impeachment be resolved first!
Consequently, members of the Senior Grand Secretary Faction turned their attention to Fan Jingwen; the moment he signaled, they would launch their impeachment. Members of the Eunuch Faction fixed their eyes on Gao Shiming, making the same preparations. The Revenue Faction stood as if facing a formidable enemy, rooted to the spot, frantically considering their options.
