The uproar that erupted in the Golden Throne Hall reached a resolution two days later.
Assistant Head Writer Shen Yurong and Chancellor Li's Eldest Young Master Li both resigned from their positions, and as for Princess Yongning, she was demoted to a commoner. Shen Yurong and Li Xian were alright, as they didn't have to wait for Emperor Hongxiao to erupt and took the initiative to resign themselves. Princess Yongning's demotion, however, was a direct command from Emperor Hongxiao, which saw her plummet from her lofty status to the mire overnight.
