Grand Empress
Court

Arriving in front of the shanty building, the White Cat clawed at the door with her long nails until they were closed to open.

The sound of crickets and frogs ringing out simultaneously around the hut adds to the silent atmosphere of the night.

The white cat entered the small hut, his sharp eyes looking around inside the hut while stepping deeper in search of the origin of the sound.

The sobbing became clearer as the cat moved closer to a large crate that was at the very back of the pile of other junk items. Indeed in the hut was a lot of old stuff, dusty dirty and full of cobwebs.

"Meow." The cat made a sound and touched the padlock that locked the crate.

Instantly the padlock slipped off on its own and the sobbing stopped. Suddenly the door that closed the coffin opened and the unexpected thing a girl sitting up gave rise to half of her body from inside the chest.

"Thank you" said the girl looking around. He who was wearing a maid outfit and a face that looked bruised red, not to mention added with tears drenching his cheeks added to the red of his face.

The girl was astonished to look around no one at all, then who opened the door of the crate?.

The white cat was none other than Fung Li's spiritual beast who deliberately separated from its chairman because he wanted to help as well.

The cat jumped into the crate, precisely on the lap of the girl.

"Meow," said the white deliberately inviting the girl to speak, he felt something odd about the girl.

'Why can this girl be in a crate?' inner white guy.

"Thank God the crate is open, hikss hikss. I don't know how Consort Qian is doing right now, don't let anything happen to her because of that bad woman." The girl gently rubbed the cat in her lap.

The white man was shocked to hear the girl's catapult that he could understand. 'Who is this girl? is it possible that she was the loyal servant of the late Consort Qian Yu?' his inner.

"God thank You for still giving me a chance today, I can last for half a day in this chest all thanks to you, now I have to see my lord." The pitiful-looking girl stood up with a body that looked lethargic and limp. How not half a day he was confined in a locked chest even though there was only a little gap of wind that could enter. It was a bad luck for him to still be able to survive.

The girl fell down several times as she wanted to step out of the chest because of her squeezing body. While the white one had already jumped up and stood not far away facing the chest.

The white turned on his telepathic signal and connected to Fung Li who was in the room of the late Consort Qian Yu.

Fung Li who was in the room of the late Consort Qian Yu seriously read the edict he found.

"I used to be an evil woman and thirsty for the love of King Zha Wey, but slowly I understood something that King Zha Wey only loved Empress Yux Si and married me too because he wanted to have a child for himself and the empress. I was just a womb experimenter, so I started to know this, I accepted it, but I didn't expect Empress Yux the wicked woman, she was even more cruel than the devil."

"After losing my baby is a moment where I choose to continue living or dying, but there is also a precious thing that is me, I do not want to waste this life. Even though I have lost my future son, even though it feels very painful. At least I won't do anything painful to myself, as dark as black covers the bright light, I want to find a speck of light that takes me towards that light."

"After losing my son-in-law, I thought Empress Yux Si was a good woman. Every day when King Zha Wey wasn't with me, he was doing things that made me unsettled. I wrote all this just to vent my pain on that woman, however I was just a weak woman and maybe soon I will leave here ...."

Fung Li felt touched to read the long writing on the edict that was written by himself by the person who had left that life.

"Life is indeed a secret" murmured Fung Li.

Suddenly the ring attached to Fung Li's middle finger glowed in the jewel. Signify something is important.

Fung Li raised next to his eyebrows, and the telepathy from the white one connected to him.

^^^'Chairman, there is an important thing I found. It seemed like this girl was the loyal servant of the late Consort Qian Yu who was deliberately locked up by Empress Yux Si, and no one knew about it, ' the telepathy from the White Cat surprised Fung Li.^^^

Tomorrow morning

The sound of birds chirping over the clear sky, the rays of the sun faithfully illuminated the world.

Inside the large hall that was in the Wexi Royal Palace. Gathering ministers, generals, eunuchs, servants, soldiers and most importantly the palace family itself.

The Emperor Wezi sat on the throne with his consort Zhao Musi, but there was also a new special seat there Emperor Xiao Zhan and Empress Fung Li.

Emperor Xiao Zhan and Fung Li were only wearing simple hanfu clothes in general. But it does look simple but the quality and price do not need to be asked again.

Crown Prince Xu Kang, Prince Hang Kang, Princess Sian, Princess Xi Lusi, King Zha Wey and his Empress Yux Si sat on the special stand below. Lined on the edge along the red carpet.

Tong ... tong .. tong, the sound of clanging was heard from the corner of the room, echoing in the hall asking that all dwell and pokus as the trial was about to begin.

In the middle of the red carpet, the law prime minister and two lawyers sat in specially reserved seats amid the long and wide carpet.

"Consideration! greetings of respect to His Majesty Emperor Wexi, His Majesty Emperor Xiao Zhan, Empress Fung Si and. " Furthermore, the law prime minister named Tian, the middle-aged man who became the judge, saluted the important people first.

After the salute, it is time for the trial.

"This case has been opened, the law and justice, the main thing is upheld" the judge said.

"Please let the victim issue evidence on the charges and explain it." The judge invited the lawyer of King Zha Wey who sat on the left.

The lawyer of King Zha Wey, the great Lord Hu, showed Fung Li's suspect belongings to everyone. Items that are next to Fung Li's sandals are shown to everyone.

"Based on the evidence found and the investigation by the Commander of Zen and the messenger had found next to these slippers in the late afternoon behind the room of the late Consort Qian Yu, and the shoes of none other than Empress Fung Si," said the great Master Hu in a loud voice.

Everyone in the hall was naturally shocked to see next to those sandals and observe them from afar seriously.

"We have investigated these shoes, and under the sandal pad there is an engraving that symbolizes the Celestial Empire. Simultaneously finding shoes we also found one small empty bottle of old storing the same poison that caused Consort Qian Yu's death in the sandal shoe itself. Physician come in," said Great Lord Hu.

Hearing that statement, everyone was certainly shocked and everyone's gaze was fixed on Fung Li who was sitting next to Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan clasped Fung Li's palm and threw a thin smile asking that the girl be calm and be able to hold back emotions.

'*I won't let your name get bad, just relax you don't have to fear I'm defending you because I believe you'll never do that*, ' Xiao Zhan's inner self.

Fung Li paid no heed to those who looked at him with faces that held grudges, anger, and others. With a flat and relaxed face watched the further trial.

'*Let's wait, Yux Si you are so wrong to draw me to play your cunning, cih*, ' Inner Fung Li.

Suddenly Empress Yux Si who was sitting with King Zha Wey stood up to invite the attention of the entire hall and make people curious.

"This is all untrue, my brother Fung Si is innocent and would not do such a thing. Just stop this trial immediately, "throw Yux Si with a pitiful face defending the open-air Fung Li in public.

Fung Li so smiled faintly at the drama that had begun to be played by Yux Si.
