Are these ministers blinded by power or did the Emperor hide his brains all through his reign?
Even the emperor himself says he has to be respectful to the pill pavilion head, but it seemed like either they were blinded by their greed or wanted to weaken the emperor power. Guess the power struggles for the throne are really starting with ministers siding with factions openly in front of the emperor, which doesn't make much sense as the emperor is healthy and smart.
