Empress
Episode 44 - Cunning Plan (?)
Tonight the moon looks so beautiful, the light is brighter than the night before. The stars filled the night sky. How can the sky look so beautiful? Isn't God awesome? He created everything perfectly. Including tonight, the atmosphere feels perfect to enjoy.
Someone came over to Xiao Shi who was enjoying his night in the pavilion behind the residence.
" The empress...?"
Xiao Shi just silently let the wind tonight blow his face, he was not wearing his veil at the moment. The atmosphere was silent, even Feng Yue did not dare to reprimand him anymore.
" What about Yanran?" asked Xiao Shi.
" It's all in line with what you ordered His Majesty" Feng Yue replied.
" Good, then where's Yuan? Why are you alone?"
" He was in front to guard your room Your Majesty, he said that he was worried because your room was not in the care of a trustworthy person"
" Yes, he was always worried like that. Sometimes I feel like she is a chatty mother" Xiao Shi chuckled.
Xiao Shi and Feng Yue chuckled at the fact that Yuan was indeed very chatty. She can talk a whole day a lot of things while doing her other things, really like a mother.
" Feng Yue..."
" Yes, Your Majesty?"
" Can I ask you something?"
" Of course Your Majesty"
" Don't you think I'm wrong to interfere in the affairs of this empire? I take care of things that an empress shouldn't do, and then a lot of people get involved. Even their lives could have been threatened" Xiao Shi lamented.
" Of course not Your Majesty, you did the right thing. With this action of yours, you are a great help to an empire that I think is deeply chaotic" Feng Yue reassured. It was not usual for Xiao Shi to ask and have doubts like this, what exactly happened? why did Xiao Shi ask like that?
" Is that what you think?"
" Yes Your Majesty" Feng Yue replied reassuringly.
" Where are the reports regarding the progress of our plan to unveil the decree? It's been a long time since you've reported that to me." Xiao Shi said insinuatingly.
Feng Yue started to understand the direction of this conversation, she scratched the back of her non-itchy head. It turned out that Xiao Shi said like that not because he felt doubtful, but because he wanted to insinuate himself who never made a report.
" I'm sorry for your mistake, Your Honor"
" Forgetit. Now report what happened, where did the plan go?"
" Good Your Majesty. According to the information I have received Mr. Hao has done everything according to your orders, Your Majesty, he searched the house of Minister Yun carefully and has not searched the section where you will reveal his decree. Mr. Hao asked when he should search that direction since almost the entire house had already been searched by him, there was no reason to buy time" Feng Yue explained.
Xiao Shi walked a few steps forward, staring at his reflection in the river in front of him.
" Tomorrow, tomorrow the next plan will begin. Tell Mr. Hao, at least give time for 3 days, after 3 days I will tell you my next move" with a heavy breath Xiao Shi said this. He knows, ready or unprepared after tomorrow there may be many sacrifices, it is hard for him to decide this, but there is no other choice.
On the other hand, a son and father were also enjoying his night. Not enjoying the night like father and son in general, but enjoying the night and discussing things out of the ordinary.
" How? Have you started running everything according to my plan?" ask Minister Yun.
" Of course dad, I always drink the potion you suggest. And also I spent some time beautifying myself, don't you see my father's skin getting whiter and cleaner now" proudly his Consort Mao twisted her body to show her increasingly beautiful self, which she was, the skin that he thinks is getting brighter, and also the body that is getting more beautiful.
" Of course you're getting prettier, so, what about the Emperor? Have you started getting her?"
" You know dad? It was very difficult to meet the Emperor, he was always very busy and always busy." His complaint.
" Didn't you try to get to her at night?"
" If you knew dad, if I went to Your Majesty at night then that damn Huang Li would try to stop me and say that His Majesty doesn't want to be disturbed"
" That Huang Li, looks like I should start getting rid of her" muttered Minister Yun.
" Did the Emperor visit the woman?" ask her curious. If his daughter could not meet the Emperor, would it be possible that the Emperor and the Empress had already begun to have some closeness?
" I heard no father, the emperor never visited the bad woman" replied Mao Ketus.
" Good, at least they're not getting close. You should take advantage of this opportunity to approach His Majesty and get rid of the woman, so that the seat and position that should be yours will return to you" Minister Yun explained.
" You're right dad, well I'll do better in the future"
" Good, that's just my daughter's name. I have a plan, but will you follow my plan this time, son?" said minister Yun with a hearty.
" Of course dad, I'll do anything for you"
Minister Yun smiled then handed a small cloth to his daughter.
" Take this in the woman's food, and the position and crown will be yours"
" Is this dad?" he asked while trying to see what was inside the cloth.
" This is a powder that will make a person die if consumed"
" Dad!! Wouldn't it be suspicious if the woman just died?" mao asked inexhaustibly with his father's plan, usually his father was a good planner, but this time why his plan was so stupid.
" Of course it won't. Initially he will feel very thirsty, he will feel a lack of fluids and drink continuously. With the amount of water he drank it actually made this powder will spread throughout his body. After that he will fall ill and die slowly" Minister Yun revealed his scheming.
" What about the doctor? She's an empress of course a healer will check on her father"
" Look down, this poison won't be detected at all."
" What do you mean dad?"
" Mao, listen to me. When the healer checks this powder will work like a disease in general, the healer will only think that it is because of his health that began to decline due to some organs of his body that are problematic. This will not be suspected, even until his death later, all of his will be very clean and tidy. You just calm down, son. After that you will be appointed empress" said Minister Yun trying to convince his hesitant daughter.
" Alright, I understand you."
" This is just my daughter" said Mnteri Yun proudly and hugged the princess.
