Qin Imperial Palace, the midnight slaughter a month ago still casts a chill over this Imperial City.
The eunuchs and palace maids have yet to be replenished, leaving the vast Imperial Palace with a lack of liveliness.
Three days ago, the new Emperor ascended the throne.
The seventh Prince, Qin Jinyang, not yet of age, took the throne, while Regent King Qin Jinchen swiftly suppressed all domestic unrest with a firm hand.
It was at this moment that everyone suddenly realized that the previously low-key and weak Prince Xian was actually a silent tiger.
As for why it wasn't Prince Xian but the seventh Prince who ascended... this question puzzled many, yet Qin Jinchen offered no explanation.
Mu Family, Mu Xiong remains his Eternal Peace Duke, and Mu Qingge is still the young lord yet to inherit the title.
It seemed that everything was as it was before.
