Minister of War, Lord Meng, after submitting the impeachment memorial, has been waiting for Bai Xilie to summon him.
However, after waiting at his residence, no one from the palace came.
Until dusk, the doorman hurriedly ran to him.
"Sir, someone from the palace is here!"
Meng Chang was delighted, and immediately stood up: "Quick, welcome them!"
He followed to the door, thinking it was the eunuch summoning him to the palace.
However, at the entrance, there was an imposing squad of the Imperial Guard.
The leading commander's expression was solemn.
Upon seeing Meng Chang, he dismounted swiftly and stepped forward, greeting him with a fist salute.
"Minister Meng, I am here on orders to convey the Emperor's decree."
Though puzzled, Meng Chang still knelt to listen to the imperial edict.
