Book Synopsis
In the Forbidden City, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, seated above the Golden Throne before the Nine-Dragon Screen, he sat with a deep and cold gaze. For twenty years, he had never stepped into this resplendent palace, yet every breath of the empire was under his control.
"I have a petition to present, Your Majesty. You are obsessed with Mysticism and neglecting State Affairs, causing Court Affairs to deteriorate, and The People Are Living in Despair..." A sharp voice echoed through the hall. He slowly opened his eyes, a cold smile curling at the corners of his mouth; it had been a long time since he had heard that voice.
"How dare you! You presume to speak ill of the Emperor! Guards, drag this madman out and execute him!" There was an uproar around him as the guards exchanged glances, but no one dared to step forward. He waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, his tone eerily calm: "I permit him to finish."
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask, whose world is this? Is it the Great Ancestor's world, or..." He suddenly stood up, overturning the petition before him. The dragon countenance was furious, yet he did not deny it.
