Liu Jin
After the re-establishment of the Western Depot under Gu Dayong, Liu Jin convinced the emperor to create the "Neixinchang", or Inner Branch Depot, which would supervise direct dangers to the throne and the emperor's safety. This Depot was made supervisor to the other two, the East and West Depots, thus consolidating Liu Jin's power. The depot persecuted many of the opponents to Liu Jin and his policies. It is estimated that more than one thousand people were killed by the Inner Branch Depot.
