Chapter 123: the empress wills to save her mother

In the empress dowager palace, the empress dowager with Lord Chu is discussing their plan to seize the throne. The reason behind their bold moves is Lord Jeong. He has heard about his moves by gathering his troop.

"Are you sure, father?" the empress dowager is asking her father about his decision to seize the court.

"Jeong is already stealing a large amount of immunity from the armoury. I hear also he is gathering all troops in his area to be ready. If you are ruling as regent, we can throw him out as treason act, and Ni Sheng with Lord Ni family will be implicated. Do you think this way can benefit us?" Lord Chu is telling her daughter.

"This is very bold moves from us. I am a bit sorry for this decision," The empress dowager is telling her father. This is the first time; she agrees to his request to seize power in the country. They even are going to poison the emperor. there is no turning back on their decision at this stage.
