Empress
Episode 28 - Empress

The wedding day went well, now Xiao Shi officially became an Empress. No more beautiful hair, he had to carry his hair and wear the hair trinkets of an Empress. There were also no more simple clothes, now his clothes were very luxurious, clothes were filled with the Golden Dragon complexion. What a beautiful and luxurious dress.

To be honest, Xiao Shi did not want to wear it. But now she was not a Princess of a Kingdom, but she was an Imperial Empress, leading many Kingdoms under her, he said, of course she must be a role model for the Queens in the Kingdom who are sheltered by her husband, the Emperor. It was troublesome indeed, but this was what he had to do. Like it or not, this is their responsibility and responsibility.

" Your Majesty" Yuan said. Yeah, now he's also changing his calls. Everyone changed their call to him, including his parents and older brother. This is a government regulation, and this must be adhered to and executed properly.

" What's up?" xiao Shi asked as he inhaled the scent of his tea, it has been his favorite tea ever since he was in this world.

" A lot of gossip is spread about you Your Majesty"

No matter what Yuan said, Xiao Shi still drank his tea. " What gossip?"

" On your wedding night"

Xiao Shi scrunched his forehead, then placed the tea glass on his desk and focused his gaze on Yuan.

" What's wrong with my wedding night?"

" I'm sorry Your Majesty, but, after the wedding the bride and groom will usually spend their nights together. But...." Yuan did not continue his words.

" But what?"

" But you and the emperor didn't even spend the night together. The Emperor only visited for a moment to open your headgear and then return to his room. That's the alleged ladies in the palace"

" That's true, then?" Xiao Shi was still indifferent to hearing it.

" Another rumor says that the Emperor does not really love you, and you will just end up like any other concubine, being a display in this palace without ever being touched by the Emperor"

Xiao Shi simply smiled, he poured his tea again on the empty glass, then gave it to Yuan.

" Drink, you seem to worry too much Yuan"

" Your Majesty." Yuan protested because Xiao Shi only thought of her as a joke.

" Have you forgotten about my terms in Wang first?" Xiao Shi put his glass back in place despite it being filled with tea.

" Of course not Your Majesty, but are you really going to do it? A wife will not be happy if she does not get love from her husband"

" Hmmm, you're right. But I am happy with my current state, the Emperor kept all his promises to me, I am happy with that. I have you guys anyway, so don't think too far."

" I'm sorry Your Majesty"

" It's okay, I'm glad you're still watching me"

A lady-in-waiting suddenly entered Xiao Shi's room and saluted, she was Yanran, Xiao shi's personal lady-in-waiting. As for Yuan, she was the empress's chief lady-in-waiting. All the maids who worked for Xiao Shi were under Yuan.

" Your Majesty" Yanran paid his respects.

" What's up?"

" Great Concubine is asking for your attention"

Xiao Shi and Yuan exchanged glances, "Great Concubine? Why is he here? Let him in"

" Good Your Majesty" Yanran resigned, as did Yuan.

A woman in luxurious clothes entered the room, the clothes had a lot of silver patterns, even her hair ornaments were also of silver material. It was indeed an outfit for the concubines who had a special title. As for ordinary concubines only the luxurious clothes of the palace were without any complexion.

Xiao Shi got up from his seat to greet the arrival of this uninvited guest.

" Please enter the concubine" he said kindly.

" So, this is your private room? Quite luxurious" not answering Xiao shi's greeting, he instead directly looked around the room. This room was filled with golden dragon emblems as well as some flowers, it was indeed Xiao Shi who requested it. This room was the one used if Xiao Shi received guests, or to learn something. The bedroom is in another room, he will only be in the bedroom when night comes. The rest, he spent his days in this room.

Seeing the indecent Grand Concubine's manner, making Xiao shi's suave intent disappear. He returned to his seat and inhaled the scent of his tea again.

" Sister, I came here to greet you..ah what are you drinking?" his question was curious and approached towards Xiao Shi.

" Sister?" its kerniness.

" What's up, sister? "

" What do you mean?"

" Ah, it seems like no one has told you who I am, it seems like my visit here is indeed true" he said with a very haughty face.

" I'm a—"

" You are Grand Concubine Yun, the first woman brought to the Inner Palace by the Emperor. You're the oldest here, you mean?" cut Xiao Shi.

Consort Yun increasingly showed his haughty face.

" It turns out you know it's sister, so I hope you know your limits"

Haha, what is this woman saying? Demi G.o.d Xiao Shi really could not bear to laugh.

" limitation? Looks like you should know your limits" Xiao Shi sipped his tea, trying to calm down and not be instigated by the caterpillar in front of him.

" me? Haha, SHAKE!!! You're asking me to know my limits? I am—"

Araggg!!!!

Xiao Shi put his tea glass down violently. The sound from the glass stopped the caterpillar's scream.

" You should know your limits, concubine!! Know who you're talking to now." The remark Xiao Shi let out was completely emotionless, but it had made the caterpillar's confidence shaken.

" I'm talking to a woman who's much younger than me. Your age with me is very different. While my age with His Majesty is only a few years different, so I am still the oldest here. And you have to—"

" You're just a concubine! Keep your position in mind, and yes, that sister's call just keep it for you, you're the Emperor's concubine, that means you're my sister. Isn't that Brother Yun?" continued.

" You!!! Let's see if you can still disrespect me in front of the Emperor later!"

" Just go ahead!"

" It turns out you're pretty brave. Hah, what a pity, this courage of yours doesn't make you any better than me. The Emperor didn't even sleep in your house the night of your marriage, what a pity"

" Shouldn't I say that?"

" What do you mean?"

" You're the poor concubine. Many years together with His Majesty, but he still did not see you. Not even visiting your residence, at least he visited me last night. Uncover my head, and slightly do the hot scene. But yes, His Majesty did not spend the night here because I was unable to serve him, so His Majesty decided to return to his room rather than not be able to hold him here. Shouldn't I be the one to tell you how poor you are as a concubine? Your Majesty touched me, while you? Not at all."

Hearing what Xiao Shi said made his head boil, it seemed like smoke had emerged from his ears when judging by how red the Concubine's face was, it was certain that he was furious.

Concubine Yun left the Xiao shi residence full of fury, resentment, and growing hatred.

'how dare he treat me like that. Touch her? Not likely. The emperor couldn't have done that, and what was that? Brother Yun? Hahaha really did not know himself' Inner Concubine Yun.

Seeing Concubine Yun walk out of the room in a fit of rage naturally frightened everyone. No one had ever dared to offend Consort Yun, and now Xiao Shi offended him? Unexpectedly, he was brave.

The rumors regarding the Emperor who had touched Xiao Shi spread very quickly, the debate between Xiao Shi and Consort Yun was of course heard to the outside of the room. Not only the lady-in-waiting outside, but also the lady-in-waiting who just passed by can hear it. It was indeed intentionally done by Xiao Shi.

Yuan and Yanran immediately went inside looking at Xiao shi's state, nothing changed, he still remained seated while holding his teacup.

" Your Majesty, what are you doing? Offending Grand concubine will get you in trouble" Yanran said.

Xiao Shi stared intently at Yanran, as well as Yuan.

" Are you a spy for him?" asked Xiao Shi.

Yanran who was asked like that was immediately startled and calmed down.

" Pardon Your Majesty, I dare not. Servant is only worried about you"

" Worry?"

" Truly Your Majesty"

Xiao Shi gestured at Yuan, and Yuan helped Yanran up.

" What are you worried about" Yuan asked.

" Anyone who offends Grand Concubine, usually they will get punishment, whether it is pain, even death. There are many servants who have been victims"

It turned out that the information was true, he indeed had a complete lack of humanity.

" Yanran, I want to ask you a question?" said Xiao Shi in a soft tone, not as cold as earlier.

" Please Your Majesty"

" You said you were worried about me, I was grateful for that. But did you not hear all his words that humbled me? She doesn't consider me a queen here. I was humbled here, am I wrong to mention it a little? He has been very close to me"

Yanran seemed to think, then bowed his head.

" I'm sorry Your Majesty"

" It's okay. You don't have to be afraid from now on, you work for me, so of course I'll protect you and your family out there. As long as you're loyal to me and don't try to betray me, then your life and your family's life are safe in my hands."

Yanran's eyes lit up to hear it.

" Thank you Your Majesty! Thanks you! Yanran will be loyal forever to you, and will always support you" he said.

" Good, now prepare my bath. I want to clean myself up"

" Good Your Majesty" Yanran resigned.

Now only Yuan and Xiao Shi remained. Yuan only looked at Xiao Shi with a strange look.

" What's wrong with you?"

" Is what I heard right? The emperor really touched you?" tanyanya whispers.

Xiao Shi turned his eyes, and struck Xiao shi's head slowly.

" Of course not! You're crazy!!"

" Why did you say that?"

" Aishhhh no, no need to talk about it. You just help me take off this ornament, my head hurts"

" good"

Yuan helped Xiao Shi take off the trinkets he had haired while still thinking about it. If the Emperor did touch her, why did Xiao Shi say no? But if the Emperor did not touch her at all, then why did Xiao Shi say that to Consort Yun? Oh this God makes his head woozy. Which is true and which is not. It's very complicated.
