"Gentlemen, now that the Empress Dowager is in power, she is promoting many relatives and in-laws, and together with the Yuan, Yang, and Xun families, she is manipulating the government. Her intentions are truly despicable!"

“Brother Li is right. We scholars have loyally served the emperor, but now they have forced us to the brink of ruin. The country is on the verge of chaos!”

“Indeed, His Majesty has always been close to scholars, and we must not stand idly by and watch them deceive His Majesty and disrupt the order of the court!”

The hundreds of students in the academy also chimed in, expressing their dissatisfaction with the Empress Dowager, the imperial relatives, the maternal relatives, and the Yuan, Xun, and Yang families.

Upon seeing this, the student from the Li family's family flashed a smug look in his eyes, and then said loudly:

"Gentlemen, the scholars in the court have now been forced to leave the court."

Moreover, they are building schools on a large scale and cultivating their cronies. As a result, we will not be able to make any progress. If this continues, the government will fall completely into their hands, and the emperor will be at their mercy.

"Yes, they've established schools and are controlling the selection of talent! We'll have no chance of advancement anymore!"

Upon hearing this person's words, the expressions of the students in the academy became extremely solemn.

"Therefore, we should stand up to help His Majesty, eliminate those treacherous officials, and restore order to the court!"

"Well said!"

"Brother Li, tell me, what should we do?"

"......"

The students of the Imperial Academy were also stirred up by the Li family members, and they all chimed in to agree.

"The only way now is for us to go to the Southern Palace together to plead with the Empress Dowager to withdraw the edict and return power to the Emperor!"

Only in this way can His Majesty cleanse the court, restore justice to us scholars, and to all the people of the world!
