Becoming Empress
THE BECOMING EMPRESS CHAPTER 6. Accepting challenges.
One week later, in the center of the city•
Alexsa and Dayang May are walking in the market, Alexsa will see what business he will live as long as he is in ancient times..
But after quite a long walk and see look, there is nothing Alexsa likes and wants him to live.
“May, we better go home. There is nothing I like to sell in this ancient time.” Alexsa said, making Mei frown.
“Ancient time .. What is Miss of what era if not today?” Mumbles Dayang Mei in the heart.
Not only this time Dayang Mei heard the grunts of the employer like that, because Dayang Mei had often heard if her employer grumbled indistinctly.
“Sorry Miss, what business do you want to go through?” ask Dayang Mei.
“I don't know May, what can make money without capital? I don't have any money, but I want a lot of money and just stay in my house .. heheheh.”
Mei laughed. “If so, miss must be a Concubine or be Empress to stay in the residence and money continues to flow in your coffin.” Guyon Dayang May, make Alexsa's move stop.
“Is that true?” ask Alexsa.
Dayang Mei stopped her steps, then turned her head to where the Jun-jungan was looking at her.
“I was just joking Miss, even though in the Palace it looks safe and has a treasure, but ... what I heard in the back Palace was terrible, very terrible, and kill each other in fine to get the heart of the Emperor.”
“Is it really like that?”
Dayang Mei nodded, “Let's go home Miss.” Take Dayang May.
“Alright, come.”
The two of them stepped home, but the sound of horses echoed in the downtown area. Make their steps stop.
“An announcement from Zhang Imperial Palace, Emperor Zhang Dai Lian announces if the annual festival will be held next week. Girls aged 15 years and above please participate, and the first winner until the third winner will get a prize from the Emperor directly.” Shouted the Emperor's bodyguards, then left after announcing what Jun-jun had ordered.
The people were whispering, especially the girls who boasted of her talent would come along for the Princes to glance at them.
“Nona, will you come?” tanya Mei, the anticipation made the three people who were not far from Alexsa's direction laugh at Dayang Mei's question.
“Basic of rubbish, it turns out you are not dead yet huha ..” Said the woman who was with An Rian and An Rumi.
Alexsa frowned, she did not remember this female figure in front of her.
“Damn it! Why when reading the novel I have to sleep anyway, is the storyline in the novel not the same?” murmured Alexsa inwardly, for as he remembered he had only read up to the part where he had survived the slander of his two sodari while at the Palace..
Alexsa whispers on Dayang May, “May ... who is that woman?”
“She is Miss Rouring, the third daughter of a rich merchant in this city Miss.” Whisper Mei.
“Aa .. hh.” Alexsa nodded.
“Look, the eldest child of the An family who has no talent at all wants to participate. You're the scum of society, it's not worth walking your way out of what else to take part in the race! Don't you have a face?” ledek Rauliying's.
Alexsa just smiled gracefully. “Nona Rauliying, how can you talk like that with me? After all, I was the first Miss in General An's family. You don't deserve to speak rudely to me.” Alexsa.
“Haha-hahaha- hahaha” The three people laughed.
“Si stupid don't know yourself.” Ledek An Rian's.
“Better you die a second time, compared to join the race and only embarrass yourself.” Ledek Rauliying's.
“Cry, cry ... let's cry like you already.” An Rumi's been teasing Alexsa.
They laughed satisfied.
“How dare you!” Rauliying nodded furiously.
“Already Rau, let this trash keep talking.” Said An Rian, then turned to look at the Big Brother with a mocking look. “An Xia, I challenge you in this year's festival race .. and if you're the winner, the three of us will be your servants for two seasons.” An Rian challenged Alexsa.
Alexsa who had not wanted to participate in the race, now he thinks evil if the three of them become his servants .. will be exciting and can prank the son of a concubine who does not know himself.
“Alright, I accept your challenge.” Alexsa agrees, then sees Dayang Mei, “Come May, we go from here .. Let the three dogs bark as they please.
Alexsa and Dayang Mei leave, leaving behind three people who are holding back their anger.
“That jaranggang has dared to fight us.”
“Don't worry, we'll teach her a lesson later.” Said An Rian who was directly influenced by Rauliying and An Rumi.
An Rian strongly believes, if the brother will not win the festival race that will be in the title one week more. Because An Rian knew very well that An Xia did not have any talent in any field.

The palace•
“You must choose one of the girls to make your Empress, there is no way you will become Emperor and have no Empress beside you Prince Jun.”
“But Mother, I do not want to have a wife next to me who is the same as a girl in general who only relies on the talent of dancing, embroidering, music, or singing, I want to have a different wife to the others.”
“Lantas, what woman do you want?” Emperor Zhang Dai Lian asked.
Prince Jun thought for a moment, for some reason .. Suddenly his mind flashed across An Xia's face which he thought she was the type of girl of his dreams.
“I want An Xia to be my Empress.”
JODEEERRR ...
Everyone was shocked to hold onto his chest simultaneously, as Imperial Crown Prince Zhang wanted this talentless girl to be Imperial Empress Zhang.
“But son, rumor has it if first Miss An has no talent and becomes a scum of the community.” Said the Queen's mother.
“Mother ... it is just a mere rumor spread by irresponsible people Mother. Did Mom see it for herself, if the first Miss in the An family has no talent?”
Everyone is silent.
“For that ... This prince wants a festival that will be called an event for me to find a strong Empress and can not be snapped by anyone.”
“How to?” ask Emperor Zhang's father.
Prince Jun smiled at his parents.
“This is what I want.”
Prince Jun whispered his plan which he had neatly arranged, The Emperor and the Empress nodded in agreement with the plan of his first child.
