Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 2565

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty." Minster Hao kowtowed in response.

With Emperor Yang Zhou accepting these, he could feel more reassured. As for the nobles back in the city, they have long given up.

As long as they could keep their lives, they were willing to pay high price.

For some of these big families, the most important thing was for them to continue their lineage. They could take setback and lose money, but they need to have some people left in their family.

If they dared to rebel against Fei Yang Kingdom, the entire family would be thoroughly destroyed. Because Emperor Yang Zhou was able to rule Fei Yang Kingdom not through compassion but through wars and violence too.

He could be kind but most of it were nothing more than calculation.

Because he's the emperor.

"You may go now." Emperor Yang Zhou turned to look at Prime Minister Lan.

Prime Minister Lan stepped forward and said, "Minister Hao will be assigned in Ying City. The formal appointment will be announced in a few days."

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

After a few more words, Minister Hao walked out of the court. He looked back at the court for a moment and then sighed silently, but there was a faint smile.

What Emperor Qi Kan Tian said was right.

He still has a chance to continue being an official, even if the position would not be as high as it used to be.

But this was much better than nothing.

From now on, he's the minister of Fei Yang Kingdom and nothing else.

Meanwhile, Emperor Yang Zhou and the two prime ministers were talking about the inauguration tomorrow.

"Your Majesty, everyone had been informed about the inauguration process." Prime Minister Lan looked at Emperor Yang Zhou. "The princes will be present to watch from the side."

In the past few years, Emperor Yang Zhou had several children as the harem expanded. For this matter, the two prime ministers didn't care too much. This was because they knew that as long as Emperor Yang Zhou didn't want to, none of his children could ever get the throne.

Besides, they were still very young right now and it was not the time to worry about succession matters.

The oldest prince was only 9 years old and it was still far away before he could even think about gathering power in the court. Emperor Yang Zhou would most likely not let go of the power in his hand so easily.

He had worked hard for most of his life, could he give it to others just like that?

It was unlikely.

"I know." Emperor Yang Zhou nodded. "Made the announcement tomorrow. Fei Yang Kingdom will still be Fei Yang Kingdom, but it had entered a new calendar. Tomorrow will be the first day of Emperor Zhou."

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Yang Zhou chose the word 'Zhou.' The writing was different from his name and it'll be his title from now on.
