The War Without a Master tells the story of the middle period of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor was unable to attend court and handle state affairs under the pressure of the cabinet and the Eastern Factory. The eunuch group led by Zhang Jing, a eunuch from the Eastern Factory, and the cabinet group led by Wang Zuo, the chief minister of the Cabinet, were vying for power. Zhao Chongxi, the grand commander of the Jinyiwei, was caught between the two factions and remained neutral, insisting on being loyal to the emperor. However, the Jinyiwei had already been planted with many traitors by the two factions. A power struggle that ostensibly took place between the northern and southern Zhenfu offices of the Jinyiwei but secretly between eunuchs and the cabinet began to unfold.[Collapse]
