It turned out that Zhu Haoran had almost completely netted all the participants involved in the private mine case, leaving hardly anyone clean in the County Yamen; nearly everyone was implicated.
It makes sense, after all; if one didn't get involved, one could hardly survive in the County Yamen.
Not to mention that there were also many officials from the Provincial Capital involved.
Following Zhu Haoran's purge, the officialdom of Peace State was thoroughly shaken, and at least one-third of the positions were vacated.
The County of Qi City was particularly affected, having practically no officials left to run it.
Zhu Haoran had originally planned to arrest all the perpetrators and take them to the Capital City to stand trial at the Court of Judicial Review, and then report back to the Emperor.
