What's the rush? It almost resulted in a death on the street.
Everyone knew that was just an excuse, yet no one dared to expose the truth in public— The said General Tang, who is at the right hand of Empress Dowager Zhuang, got promoted as the Grand Marshal as soon as the latter returned from her recuperation. He was straightforwardly assigned the military power that originally belonged to the Duke of Xuanping.
"Sister, the people from the Tang Residence are too much!" In a tea house along the street, a maiden in a purple dress complained to the nun sitting opposite, "This isn't the first time they've used their power to bully others! Earlier in Liu Lane, I saw a servant from the Tang Residence beating up a commoner, claiming that the latter owed them money. But you can't beat someone just because they owe you silver!"
The nun remained silent, merely sipping her tea quietly.
