Chief Historian Chen's words were logical and resonant, leaving no room for dissent.
The loyal officials were left speechless.
At this moment, Prince Ping was continuously crying. His sharp cries mixed with the desolate, hopeless wails of Imperial Concubine Fan, piercing the eardrums and causing the loyalists who insisted on orthodoxy to waver once more.
Can Prince Ping really hold the throne of Da Liang?
The lives of Prince Huaiyang and Prince Wu'an were uncertain. Even if by chance they survived, they would never wholeheartedly submit to such a naive child. Nanyang County Princess Jiang Shaohua had made her intentions clear to vie for the throne. Whether successful or not, it was impossible that she would support Prince Ping as Grand Empress Dowager Zheng had envisioned.
The seed of discord had already been sown. Unless a harsh and fierce new emperor ascends the throne, internal strife is inevitable.
Who can turn the tide?
Who should sit on the Dragon Throne?
