Chapter 67: Entering The Main Hall

Those were the people that he managed to pull to his side by relying on his mother's influence.

They were all waiting for morning to come in order to complete their plan. As long as they could pull more people to Prince Yang Lu's side, they would be able to overthrow the low born Emperor Yang Zhou.

Prince Yang Lu's mother was also sitting beside him. She looked tired due to the meticulous plan that she had concocted ever a long time ago, but her eyes showed her excitement.

As long as her son could obtain the throne, everything was worth it.

"How come it's so long for morning to come?" Prince Yang Lu grumbled. He wanted to sleep yet at the same time, he was worried that Emperor Yang Zhou would somehow gain the access back to the palace.

The guards had been bribed to not let anyone enter the palace except the ministers at morning. However, living in the palace for a long time also allowed them to know the existences of the secret passages. Of course, they had placed the guards there, so they would know if there was anyone who would try to take back the throne.

"You have to be patient." Empress Dowager Hai looked at her son helplessly. She might be the one who helped him a lot but at the same time, she felt that her son was really not too capable.

He was unable to pull more supporters even though he had the obvious advantage of higher birth than that b*stard Emperor.

"Imperial Mother," Prince Yang Lu greeted back. He gritted his teeth. "I just don't want to see that ant come crawling back again even after being kicked out. He should just stay outside for a long time and die in this winter."

Empress Dowager Hai said nothing and only sigh. She shook her head and tapped the armrest. "His Majesty's people are helping him out. Their number might not be many, but they're still a problem for us."

"Just eliminate them."

"I have already asked Second Commander Hai to pursue them, but he might be in a bitter battle with General Lan." Empress Dowager Hai detested that general greatly.

General Lan was one of the few loyal retainers of the current Emperor. It would be hard to eliminate Emperor Yang Zhou if they didn't take care of his followers first. Because of that, Empress Dowager Hai had been working hard to try cutting off their people before her time run out.

The thought that the Emperor placing her in secluded palace angered her the most.

When the previous Emperor, Emperor Xuan, was still alive, she was one of the few most powerful women in the palace. Even that b*tch was nothing even though she had the favor of the Emperor.

Now that Emperor Yang Zhou had taken the throne, Empress Dowager Hai knew that the harem's right would be placed in another person's hand soon. Before it happened, she had to make use of her authority in order to make sure that she could push her son to the throne first.

"Minister Hai," Prince Yang Lu called the highest ranked minister in the hall right now.

Minister Hai, who was a fourth ranked official, straightened his back when he heard the prince called him. He bowed down. "Your Highness."

"Tell me, how do you plan to convince the other officials?" Prince Yang Lu asked in threatening tone. He was in bad mood after losing so much sleep and it didn't help that he still had to wait until morning.

"With some persuasion, they would be moved to Your Highness' side." Minister Hai smiled. While Emperor Yang Zhou was the current Emperor, he was a weak Emperor with less influence. There were several officials who were not happy with him being the Emperor.

Not to mention, with him being less than 20 years old, the highest power in the throne was still put in the Empress Dowager's hand.

But it was not Empress Dowager Hai.

"Hmm, that better be true. It'll be morning soon." Prince Yang Lu's expression turned sinister. He could barely wait for the officials to pledge their loyalty to him and then took the throne from his older brother.

So what if he was younger?

He believed his status was higher than that b*stard son whose mother was nothing more than a dancer. His mother was that of high status.

Empress Dowager Hai nodded and chuckled lightly. "You're right, Your Highness…"

Bang!

The right path's door was pushed open. Pushed open might be a bit of understatement considering that the door was barely in one piece anymore. There were several debris scattered through several places.

"It breaks!"

"Don't go around and destroy palace's properties." Long Qian Xing was speechless at Nan Luo's attempt to open the door. Just how much power did this brat use to make this supposedly tough door destroyed?

Sora's Corner: Imperial Concubines after change of Emperor

Just in case you don't know, when the new Emperor rise to the throne, the imperial concubines of the previous emperor would either be put in the monastery or separate palace that's far from the main one. However, imperial concubines who have children couldn't be put in monastery and they were usually awarded with the title 'Empress Dowager' even if they were not the Empress. Those who were looked upon favorably would be put in nearer palace while those who were not would be put in further palace. This would also be done within the first 50 days of the new Emperor's reign.

The harem was usually commanded by the Empress, thus when the Emperor changed, the right would be given to the new Empress after around 50 days. (the exact days can be different depending on the time and some other things).. If there was no Empress yet or the Emperor and Empress were still too young, it would be given to the Emperor's birth mother, who had the title of Empress Dowager.
