Duanmu Huai casually observed the Emperor. He clearly understood the Emperor's current mood. Unlike those foolish idiots in the forgotten worlds, most Imperial governors do not wish for the Tribunal to appear in their territories. Their arrival does not suggest suspicion; it confirms that there are indeed problems.
Doctors may reach a conclusion after examination, but the Tribunal only considers treatment or amputation, or simply euthanizing you.
"We need a detailed and comprehensive investigation, from top to bottom. Do you understand what I mean, Great Governor?"
"This... of course, I understand..."
The Emperor was really not accustomed to Duanmu Huai's subtly threatening tone, but he had no choice—because the Tribunal could even kill him on the spot for not cooperating with them, under suspicion of being corrupted by Chaos. Of course, generally, Judges would not do this, and if they did, they wouldn't have anything good coming their way afterward.
