Zhang Xu Kingdom’s Strive (2)

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.
