Emperor Zhang Hou Tian saw his wife standing at the start of the stairs and nodded in her direction. She was the daughter of the noble families in Zhang Xu Kingdom and her father bet on the third prince, Prince Zhang Hou Tian.
Now, it seemed that the bet had paid off.
Even though she was so excited, she tried her best to maintain dignified expression as she walked to the top and stood beside Emperor Zhang Hou Tian.
From now, the two of them would stand at the highest in Zhang Xu Kingdom.
…
The palace was in turmoil.
Now that the third prince had already ascended and selected as the next Emperor, they knew that they had lost. No matter what they did, they would never be able to truly become the Emperor and become the one who was powerful.
All they could do was to wait for either death or exile.
*sigh*
Some people had given up directly and some others who had higher ambition couldn't accept this change easily. They didn't want to just serve others.
In a certain small palace, a woman was listening to her servants telling her about the change of the Emperor.
"I will soon change my title to a deposed concubine huh?" Imperial Concubine Yue, who used to be Princess Yue, didn't seem to think that it was strange at all. She had seen the time when her grandfather passed away and the time when her father also passed away.
During those two times, there were a large shift in the Imperial Palace.
And these Imperial Concubines who didn't have children were not even worthy of the title Empress Dowager.
They would be deposed to either the cold palace, temple, or even the grave.
Imperial Concubine Yue had long known that this would be her ending, so she was prepared. She was still young and had a long life ahead, so she definitely couldn't accept this kind of ending.
"Madam…"
"Isn't it perfect for me to make my move?" Imperial Concubine Yue chuckled, ruthless light flickered within her eyes.
Born in the Imperial Family, Imperial Concubine Yue was already exposed to these schemes and their hard means ever since she was young. She had long gotten used to the way of the world that was so unfair to her.
If she wanted to survive, she had to rely on herself. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Well, even if I'm hated by many people, I can't abandon this life." Imperial Concubine Yue could sneak out and passed out some news, but it was definitely not much. She would not do anything that could severely threaten her position in the Imperial Palace.
Now that the Emperor had changed…
It was time for her to start arranging her position again.
…
<In a certain area at the north of Zhang Xu Kingdom>
The news of Zhang Xu Kingdom changing Emperor was spread in a matter of moments. When an Emperor passed away, there will be the announcement, which told everyone that the Emperor had changed.
Everyone in Zhang Xu Kingdom was nervous.
They knew that even if the Emperor promised that they would not change, it was impossible for things not to change completely. And the one that suffered the most was usually the peasant.
