Empress
Episode 63

Yuan is now in front of the Queen Mother, with food that has been given and arranged neatly on the table by the ladies.

" In what order did the Empress give this to me"

Yuan recounted the incident from the beginning and said that this was a form of Empress apology to the emperor because of the incident last night.

The Queen Mother who had just heard the news was shocked. His son prepares a special dinner for a woman? Is that really his son? Unbelievable.

The food brought by Yuan began to be tasted by Suri's mother one by one.

" The food is delicious, and it looks like a new menu. Did you guys change the head of the kitchen?"

" Not Your Majesty"

" then?"

" That,,, that, that, the empress herself cooks"

" WHATAA?!! Why did you let him cook? An empress should not set foot in the kitchen and touch the things inside, how can you allow that?!"

The atmosphere that was once calm now felt very stressful.

Yuan immediately kowtowed and explained everything to the Queen Mother. Although still wanting to be angry, but hearing the reason given by Yuan, he understood him.

" Yes already, I will say it directly to the Empress later. You can go and tell me the cooking is good and I like it a lot"

" Good Your Majesty "Yuan paid his respects and resigned his resignation.

' It seems love will soon bloom in the kingdom from now on ' Inner Queen Mother.

" Ayaaaaahhhhhhhh" Yanran entered Mr. Hao's office in court with a tray.

Mr. Hao whose ears immediately buzzed due to Yanran's shout immediately approached his son as soon as he saw the large tray he was carrying.

" Daughter, be careful, come help me" said Mr. Hao as he took over the tray from Yanran's hand.

" I brought you father's food. Since you got promoted you rarely pay attention to your health, so come eat with me dad"

" It's a lot of food and it looks delicious, it's definitely expensive, where did you buy it from? And how much is it? I'll replace it"

" No dad, I don't buy it, it's given by the empress to dad "

" For me? Aren't you wrong?"

" Of course not dad"

Master Hao narrowed his eyes, and looked at Yanran full of probes. Then he reached out to Yanran's ear.

" Tell me, did you take it secretly?"

" Dad, dad, stop, let go." Said thrashing. Master Hao finally let go of his jewel.

" It's really the empress who gave it, she even cooked it herself, dad should have appreciated the gift instead of scolding me" Yanran said as she stroked her flushed ears.

Mr. Hao stared for a moment, he looked at the food in front of him and then changed to look at Yanran. Looking at the food, looking at Yanran. Like that's next.

" I really should hit you"

Yanran was surprised to hear his father's words. Why should he be punished? Yanran scratched his non-itchy head, until he finally realized something.

Yanran covered his mouth with both hands. Shit, he just said something he shouldn't have said. Stupid, stupid, stupid. How could she say that the empress cooked her own food?

" Dad, listen to me first"

To avoid a blow from his father, forced Yanran had to tell everything, ranging from the invitation of the emperor, the threat of the empress's murder to the ladies in the kitchen, to the, and also until finally he received the order to give this bowl to his father.

Master Hao just sighed. There was nothing he could do if it was such a story. To her knowledge, the Empress could do anything, let alone just to behead her own ladyboy.

" The Queen is a kind person. If that's the case, shouldn't we honor the gift? Let's eat before you get back there" resigned Mr. Hao. Despite his anger, he had no rights whatsoever to the Empress.

" You're right. Come on dad, I can't wait to taste the food" Yanran rubbed his hand while looking at the food in front of him.

Mr. Hao just shook his head, this daughter never changes when it comes to food.

Seeing the arrival of Feng Yue, Eunuch Han immediately walked up to him.

" Eunuch Han" he said, bowing his body.

" Feng Yue, what's wrong?"

Feng Yue looked around, the entire gaze of the maids and the bodyguards including Huang Li pointed at her.

" Can we talk both? I brought a message from the empress" whispered Feng Yue.

" with me?" Eunuch Han asked.

" Yes, of course"

" I thought you wanted to meet the emperor"

" i'll explain later. Come on "

" all right"

then Eunuch Han and Feng Yue moved away slightly from their positions earlier.

" What's up?"

" Can you guys set up the back garden like it was last night? The empress wanted to replace her absence last night" Feng Yue said as slowly as possible so that no one would hear.

" What? Can't do. It took a whole day to prepare such a thing, since it did not use magic at all" protested Eunuch Han.

" The empress did not ask for decorations, she only asked to prepare her table and chairs. Is it that hard?"

" Any that's all right"

" Yes, and do it without the emperor's knowledge. The Queen wants to surprise me"

" That's good, I think Your Majesty will be very amused later. He's been so moody all day"

" Of course she will be entertained, even more so her food is also very special because the Empress cooked it herself" Feng Yue said excitedly.

" WHATAA?! Why are you-" Feng Yue covered eunuch han's mouth with her hands.

" Don't yell, you're this." Grunts

" Ck, how could you let a empress do it"

Inevitably, Feng Yue explained everything to Eunuch Han. Even the threat given by the Empress was also he said. Hearing that Eunuch Han shuddered in horror, he slightly did not expect it to turn out that the Empress was such a determined person. Eunuch Han even shuddered when he imagined himself in that position.

" But if His Majesty the Emperor finds out, he will be furious" Eunuch Han said.

" That's why don't let Your Majesty know"

" Well, what time will the queen be here?" Eunuch Han asked to make sure that their sudden preparations were ripe.

" When dinner time" Feng Yue replied.

" All right, I'll do it"

" Thank you Kasim. Although it's the first time we've talked, but it turns out you're not that me"

" You think I'm a statue?"

" Hahaha, I hope everything is done on time. Thank you for the Eunuch's help" Feng Yue bowed her body and went back to the empress' residence.

Huang Li who saw the arrival of Eunuch Han himself went straight to him and asked where Feng Yue was, and why he had not come with her.

" gone? Why?" Wonder Huang Li.

Then eunuch han told huang li the intention of Feng Yue's arrival here. Hearing that, Huang Li was happy and surprised. Finally, his Emperor's feelings began to be avenged.

" Well, what are you waiting for? Let's get everything ready" Huang Li said excitedly.

Eunuch Han asked Huang Li to prepare his place, while he had to keep watch over the emperor. Because this was done without the knowledge of the emperor, he had to stay where he should be so as not to arouse suspicion.

Huang Li and some of his men prepared a back garden as ordered by Eunuch Han. In the midst of their activities, Fu Tong suddenly came to him.

" Do you need my help?" said Fu Tong.

" Hey man! Are you here because you know this news too?" Sapa Huang Li hugged Fu Tong.

" Of course, I'm glad the empress finally accepted Her Majesty "

" You're right, I feel that way too. Although His Majesty did not say it directly and always denied it when Eunuch Han told him, but no one was unaware of his feelings for the Empress from the very beginning"

" You're right Huang. Will there be no decorations?"

" I didn't take his orders" Huang Li replied

" Why wait for orders? Let's decorate with the help of magic. We'll make the atmosphere a little romantic"

Huang Li, who agreed with Fu Tong's opinion, nodded his head and began to use his magic to make the atmosphere more romantic.

Seeing that, Fu Tong simply smiled. Task accomplished.

*Some time before...

As soon as Xiao Shi reached his room to clean himself up. He immediately called Fo Tong to give his first assignment.

" You go to the Emperor's residence and help Huang Li decorate his situation. He's not good enough at decorating, which is why you have to help him. Hold your magic and aura, lest people get suspicious when doing so"

" Huang Li? But empress, didn't you ask Eunuch Han for help?"

" He won't do it Fu Tong, just do my orders"

" good"

*Flashback End

Fu Tong used his magic to make the atmosphere more supportive for lovers. Huang Li was even astonished at where Fu Tong could learn such a thing.

" It seems like the more days you get, the better, the more you wait for the Empress to do the exercises?"

Fu Tong's body stiffened, did he subconsciously do something?

" Ayeah, you're right. To eliminate boredom I often practice" he said grinning.

" Good"

Fu Tong let out a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that Huang Li trusted him.

~•~

Xiao Shi had already finished cleaning himself up. He even changed his clothes and finished dressing himself.

Geck! Geck!

" Empress, this is Yuan" he exclaimed from the outside.

" come inside"

Yuan opened the door, as soon as he entered he had already seen this master of his in a very beautiful state. If the head of the kitchen feels insecure with his cooking. So Yuan was not confident in her makeup.

Xiao Shi's makeup tonight is exquisite. Simple, elegant yet makes it look so beautiful. The chosen hairstyle also makes it look very beautiful than usual. Selection of accessories, and Perfect clothes. Making Yuan even fixated on his spot, what about the emperor?

Unfinished Yuan who froze, now came Yanran and also Feng Yue who were also amazed to see the current appearance of Xiao Shi. Realizing that what he was doing was wrong, Feng Yue instantly turned her body and turned her back on Xiao Shi.

" Why you guys just stay there, let's go in"

Xiao Shi's cry blew their minds. Feng Yue immediately closed her door and walked up to Xiao Shi along with the others.

" The Empress" they said in unison.

" How do I look?" Xiao Shi asked as he twisted his body.

" You look very pretty" Yanran praised.

" Thank you. ah yes how are you doing? Done it?"

" The Finish the Mu-"

" Reply I am not as a servant of Yanran"

" good. I was scolded by my father after giving him his food" Yanran said his lips.

" Why?"

" She told me why I let you cook"

" I also scolded Empress Dowager Shi'er" Yuan lamented.

" And it could be that the damn eunuch yelled at me when we first spoke" Feng Yue said.

"Haha.... I'm sorry that you got such a reaction. I'll take care of it later. And how's the food, do you like it?"

The three nodded in unison.

" It's the best food I've ever eaten" Yanran praised as he gave his two thumbs up.

" All right, thank you."

" It seems like this is beyond Shi'er's scenario" Yuan said suddenly.

" What do you mean? "

" You seem to be overzealous tonight, have you really opened your heart to the emperor?" Tempting Yuan, he even nudged Xiao shi's body nudge with his.

" Alright forget the show and —"

" Ehhh don't don't, all right. Your decision is correct. Should we go now? It's dinner time"

" Do you think it should be now?" Xiao Shi asked doubtfully.

" His food will get colder Shi'er "typical Feng Yue.

" You're right, then come on. Yanran, please put on my face cover "

" WHATAAA?!" Yuan and Yanran reflexively shouted in surprise.

" I don't think you're going to wear it because you're dressed up" Yuan said.

" I dress up for myself. Let's put it on"

Although a little disappointed, Yanran still followed Xiao shi's orders. After all, it was still not time for Xiao Shi to show his true face.
