Drums and music sounded, and all officials knelt down to welcome the new emperor.
The long red carpet stretched from the white marble dragon-patterned square to the 81 dragon-patterned steps. A golden dragon-carved throne was set up on the high platform, with the prime minister standing on the left and the imperial teacher on the right.
The court has long lost its prime minister, and the prime minister's position now belongs to Elliot's mentor Luo Yunsheng. Luo Yunsheng, also known by his pen name Hailou, is a world-famous poet and free-spirited swordsman. When he was young, he taught the princes, but there has been no news in the past few years. Only today did people know that he went to Jianyang to be Elliot's counselor.
The surviving officials knew clearly that Mr. Hailou was going to be appointed as prime minister.
"Mr. Hailou has a good eye. He recognized the Seventh Prince so early."
