The mighty trumpet sounded throughout the entire imperial city, and eunuchs of all ranks went out to notify all ministers in the capital to prepare for court immediately without delay.
It was already past midnight, and Victoria Wu brought Jonathan Di, Zhang Jianzhi, and Matthew Wu to the Golden Palace.
Victoria Wu slowly sat on the dragon throne, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: How many people in history dared to take risks, use any means, and even sacrifice their lives just for coveting this position? Who could have known how difficult life would be if they stayed in this position!
It is easy to be a tyrant, indulging in extravagance and lust for the sake of momentary pleasure, but not knowing that this kind of life will accelerate one's own demise and leave behind an infamy for eternity!
It is not easy to be a wise ruler. One must be diligent and frugal, work hard, and be careful in what he says and does every day, for fear of leaving evidence for the historians and being criticized by the world thousands of years later.
