Bab 180: Chapter 84: One Wrong Step Leads to Miscalculation at Every Turn! (Please Subscribe)_6

Emperor Zhou of Great Zhou sat upright on his throne.

His expression was majestic, stern, and he did not engage in careless chit-chat.

One hand supported his chin as he silently watched the countless court ministers below him.

The massive columns of the hall were carved with ancient inscriptions and deep, meaningful patterns. Sunlight streamed through the glazed tiles on the roof, casting light in every corner of the hall, making the entire space even more resplendent with gold and jade.

The court officials stood solemnly on the red carpet, aligned in neat rows like silent statues.

Under the bright light, their faces appeared even more solemn and focused. Though they were silent, the slight shaking of their forms and the beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads betrayed the immense pressure they were feeling.

As time ticked away, Emperor Zhou of Great Zhou did not say anything to the ministers; his gaze drifted outside the hall.

Tap, tap, tap.

Outside the hall.
