The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #107

"Your majesty." Said Feng Ying who had just entered the room on Empress An.

"Come in, and help me get my hair done. Me and Prince Rong will meet the emperor's father."

"Okay, your honor."

Feng Ying carefully combed through the hair of Empress An then arranged it neatly and clamped it with the best jade flower clasps, making it look very beautiful.

"Your majesty, I've styled your hair." Said Feng Ying.

"Okay, thank you."

With a simple makeup, empress An walked out of her room and walked towards prince Rong's reading room.

"Your highness, your highness Empress An is here to see you." Said the servant in front of the door of the reading room.

Kraaaaac

The door opened, and prince Rong walked out of his reading room.

"You've come." Prince Rong.

"Yes your honor."

"Alright, better now we go to the palace. The emperor's father is waiting for us there."

"Good."

Prince Rong and Empress An walked towards the royal palace, where something had been waiting for them.

"Your highness, suddenly the father of the emperor asked you to come. What exactly happened?" Said empress An.

"I didn't know it myself, because the eunuch chairman didn't say anything to me."

Empress An nodded.

They continued walking until they reached in front of the royal palace hall.

"Your highness prince Rong and empress An arrived." Said the head of the palace guard.

Prince Rong and empress An walked into the royal palace hall, and inside the hall had sat a prime minister along with his wife and daughter.

Empress An looked at the family for a moment, "It seems the prime minister immediately brought his daughter to be handed over to his highness prince Rong, really imposing himself."

Prince Rong and empress An stopped when they arrived in front of the emperor and queen.

"Greetings to the emperor's father and queen mother, may the emperor's father and queen mother live a long and prosperous life." Prince Rong and Empress An.

"Sit down you two." Emperor.

"Thank you, emperor." Prince Rong.

Prince Rong and Empress An walked up and sat down on their seats.

The princess of the prime minister looked at prince Rong in awe and sparkle, as if impatiently wanting to be together with prince Rong.

"Emperor's father, what exactly did you call me here?" Prince Rong.

"Today prime minister Ho came here, and he wanted to tell you something."

Prince Rong and Empress An looked at the prime minister Ho.

"What does prime minister Ho want to talk to me about?" Prince Rong told prime minister Ho.

"Your highness, I came to the palace with my wife and daughter."

"Then?"

"Punish me, your majesty. I mean want to....."

"Prime Minister Ho, did you come to the palace to introduce your daughter to the noble prince Rong?" Empress An interjected prime minister Ho's words.

"Really, right. What her Majesty consort An said is true."

Everyone inside the palace hall was shocked to hear the words of Empress An, who was so calm yet so sharp.

"Ma... Forgive me your majesty, I just....."

"Sorry father of the emperor, his highness prince Rong had previously promised me and my mother. If she will never have a concubine, and will make me the only noble wife of prince Rong. But now, prime minister Ho brought his daughter into the palace, to be introduced to his highness prince Rong, did he intend to make her his daughter as the noble concubine of prince Rong?"

The word for word spoken by Empress An was so emphatic, even though she was known as a weak woman when she was inside Liu's residence, long ago. Yet at this moment, he was emitting such a powerful aura in front of everyone within that palace hall.

"You're right, that's why I asked Prince Rong to come to the palace. Because I want to hear about Prince Rong's decision." Emperor.

Empress An nodded, then looked at the daughter of prime minister Ho.

Prime Minister Ho's daughter looked at Empress An with a dislike gaze.

"How dare he say that, when his highness prince Rong has not said anything."

Prince Rong grabbed the hand of Empress An, then smiled at her.

"The father of the emperor, whom my empress told me was right. I have promised her and Xia's mistress, if I will only have one wife. The empress An. So, of course I will never have a single concubine in my palace."Prince Rong said as he looked at the emperor.

"But your majesty, how could you...."

Prince Rong looked at prime minister Ho sharply, everything he had said he would certainly do. So even though they were pushy, prince Rong would never do what they wanted.

"Prime minister Ho, currently me and his highness prince He Xuan Li are looking for the prime ministers who have taken the tax money from the people." Prince Rong.

Prime Minister Ho fell silent, he certainly understood the meaning of the words that prince Rong said.

"I.... I understand, your majesty." Prime minister Ho.

After saying that, prime minister Ho as well as his wife and daughter walked out of the royal palace hall.

"Empress An, you actually dared to say that to prime minister Ho." Queen's speech.

"I'm sorry, father of the emperor, mother of the queen. Because I've been presumptuous to say that to them."

"No, that's very good. Because now they understand, if Empress An is not a queen who is easy to oppress."

"Thank you queen mother."

Prince Rong just smiled at what his empress had done to the family of prime minister Ho earlier.

"Your highness the crown prince and his highness the prince He Xuan Li arrived." Said the head of the palace guard.

The crown prince and prince He Xuan Li walked into the palace hall.

"Greetings to the emperor's father and the queen's mother." Said the crown prince and prince He Xuan Li simultaneously.

The Emperor nodded, "What made you come together?"

"Dad emperor, we have some evidence of the prime ministers who have taken the tax money belonging to the people." The crown prince.

"So they actually dare to do it?"

"Yes, your honor."

Prince Rong stood up, "First brother, I also have the financial books of those prime ministers. Financial books can leave them speechless and unable to do anything more to defend themselves."

"True, then I'll go to your isatana to pick it up later."

"Good, brother."

"They are brave, the prime ministers must be put down immediately." Queen's speech.

"The queen's mother was right, we don't want to make the people of this kingdom suffer. And they lived happily there, so we did a search for evidence and what they've been doing for the past 3 days." Prince He Xuan Li.

"Well, if all the evidence is in place. Immediately drag them and judge them all." Emperor.

"Okay, father of the emperor." Said the crown prince and prince He Xuan Li.

Empress An looked at everything calmly, for it was not just in the present. In the past, he had seen the same thing. So he was not surprised by the prime ministers' actions.
