He Zhan walked out of the palace gate and onto the street, followed by the eunuchs. The pedestrians on the street got out of their way in a hurry.
The further they walked on the street, the fewer pedestrians were seen on the street; it was because there was an ominous government office at the end of this street.
It was the Intelligence Bureau established by He Zhan and overseen directly by the Emperor. It was mostly He Zhan's office.
The Intelligence Bureau had several thousand secret agents. Most of them were the cavalrymen in orange clothing. And most of the high ranking officials of the bureau were personally promoted by He Zhan. The bureau could spy on the chancellors and even kings, and had the right to arrest them without the permission of the Justice Bureau. They had superior power in the imperial court.
