Ever since the incident with Ye Tiancheng, this was the first time that Gan Provincial Governor Lei Sitong had come to Pingxi Prefecture for an inspection.
The Ye Clan's case in Gan Province was huge as it had shocked the whole nation. Following the incident, Pingxi Prefecture's officialdom also experienced massive changes. All officials ranked above the Seventh Grade from the Prefectural Governor's Office to the Military Governor's Office were basically replaced. More than eighty percent of them were considered to be Ye Tiancheng's accomplices and officials who lost their influence because of the Ye Clan. Many of those who were not involved in the case were also later relocated to serve at different locations.
Following such consolidation, there were only a few officials who were able to hold their positions firmly.
