Main Palace Hall.
As the Crown Prince and the temporary sovereign of the Empire, Zheng Liang was heading the afternoon royal court session in the absence of His Majesty.
He was in the middle of the meeting and discussing the pending cases with the ministers when Gu Lan came to him and whispered something in his ears.
"Yang Ning did that?" After hearing the report given by Gu Lan, Zheng Liang was surprised that Yang Ning would do something like that.
After ordering the guards to not allow anyone inside His Majesty's chamber, he asked Gu Lan to keep an eye on the situation and update him about the slightest movement of everyone.
However, he was surprised when Gu Lan informed him about what happened in front of His Majesty's chamber a while ago. He was not expecting Yang Ning to support him behind his back and help him deal with the Empress.
I know everyone waits for regular updates but things were chaotic on my end. Right after my birthday, my father was hospitalized and I had to spend a few nights in the hospital. Even if I wanted to, I cannot write in that situation and the internet connection was too weak for me to do anything. He is fine now and has returned home, which is why I am updating the chapters again.
However, the updates would be irregular for this month and I would request you all be patient with the updates. Thank you!
