章 166: Chapter 165: Forbidden to Say 'Ming

At this moment, Jiang Li was unaware of the unrest brewing among the monks. He was in conversation with Commander Liu.

Jiang Li hovered above Kyushu, while Commander Liu stayed at the Imperial Palace, their connection maintained by the Remote Communication Talisman.

"The situation is dire. Of the six commanders in the Imperial Palace, three are now in prison. I think, my lord, you may need to consider appointing new commanders."

"What? I can't believe it. Could you repeat what you just said?" Jiang Li was shocked.

"The Great Yong Dynasty has implemented a literary inquisition, forbidding people from uttering the character 'Ming'. Zhang Konghu was put in prison by the government officer just for saying 'see you tomorrow'. In the case of Ma Zhuo and his wife, they were caught selling pornographic books, and were also thrown into prison, right next to Zhang Konghu."
