Court Memorandum 5YL-9-01

The Emperor Pronounces:

''It is a fundamental principle that the Master is the Guide of the Subject. Where discipline rules, the Five Relations are maintained strictly, everyone knows their place, and order is kept. ''

''As such, transgressions that seem small nonetheless warrant vigilance. The following sixteen officials have been observed by us, personally, to breach court protocol during the Audience. If the hour or so of the Audience is too long for the appointed officials of court to maintain their bearing, what can be expected of them? ''

''We pronounce that the following sixteen officials be fined one month of their salary. ''
