On the other hand, Zhai Tianyu stayed where he was, he licked his lips and then carefully thought about what Liu Hui Ying told him. If he was being honest, he never really knew what love was after all, he has watched his mother betray his father and he has also seen a bunch of Concubines taking advantage of his father’s adoration to their advantage to cause havoc in the harem.

The number of times he was targeted by those concubines, he seemed to have lost count of it which was exactly why he swore that he will only dote on just one woman and no one else and that too under the limitations of staying sane and not losing his head over a woman.

Ji Yu was indeed his childhood sweetheart but he couldn’t say that he loved her, he cared for but that was because she was the only woman who cared about him but other than that, there were no other feelings involved. But the feelings that he had for the Queen were considerable different than he had for Ji Yu but he did not know how to name these feelings and he was feeling overwhelmed because of these feelings more and more.

‘ Was it admiration?’ He thought to himself, there was no way he was going to fall in love with a woman knowing how dangerous it could be and there were a bunch of things that he needed to do, including his revenge on the Liu family for killing his father, he could not lose his sight on the goal by getting involved with the queen.

As the emperor, he could not lose control of his feelings. And he knew the consequences of his actions as well, which was why he threw the feelings that were making his head and heart unstable. This was nothing but admiration and nothing else, he was admiring the Queen who was strong enough to walk side by side with him.

Right?

.....

The sound of a teacup shattering on the floor echoed in the room and Xiao Mimi who was startled by the noise, immediately knelt on the floor as she apologised to the Grand Dowager Empress, ” Please forgive me, your majesty.” She cried with her head kneeling on the floor. ” This one did not know how something so ominous happened with this one’s hands, please do forgive this small servant.”

.....

The Grand Dowager Empress who was playing Go on the small jade board looked up and calmly said, ” There is no need for you to apologise, We are sure that this is not because of you but someone else...someone whose presence is not welcomed here.”

” Your majesty—” no sooner did the Grand Dowager speak, than the guard standing outside the door announced, ” Her Majesty, the Dowager Empress announces her presence!”

No sooner did the guard announce her presence, than the Dowager Empress walked inside the room. Her face had an elegant smile and her pace was graceful as she walked over towards where Grand Dowager Empress was sitting, when she reached a respectful distance the Dowager Empress paused in her stride and then lowered her head as she respectfully greeted the Grand Dowager Empress, ” I greet you, your majesty. Why did you ask me to come and see you? Is there something that this one has done wrong?”

“There are too many wrongs for me to count if that was the reason I called you then we will spend the rest of our lives sitting in this room,” Grand Dowager Empress calmly responded as she picked up a Go piece and then placed it on the jade board before she continued speaking, ” I called you here because I was getting bored, sit down and play a round with me. The winner has to relay their plans to each other, sounds interesting right?”

Dowager Empress’s lips twitched when she heard the Grand Dowager Empress calling her a source of entertainment. But she still sat down on the stool in front of the Grand Dowager Empress and then picked up a go piece herself as she skimmed over the jade board and then placed it down before speaking, ” Being called out of my courtyard to entertain you, your majesty. I can’t help but be exhilarated at the very thought.”

Her sarcasm matched that of Grand Dowager Empress who chuckled and then started to counterattack the move that Dowager Empress made as she spoke, ” I have to say that you are still the same, even after killing my son, you can smile like that. I have to say not many women can be this ruthless, killing their husbands and ruining their lives yet being able to smile.”

Dowager Empress did not look offended, on the other hand, she laughed out loud. Her gaze did not move from the Go board, she nodded and hummed before speaking, ” And you are just as same as the late Emperor, always acting like the good guy but hiding your true face behind that kind mask you always wear,” she breathed in heavily as she looked up at the Grand Dowager Empress and the smile on her lips fell from her lips. ” It has been so long and you are still carrying on with the act of not knowing the truth, I would love to see how long will you be able to hide the truth, your majesty. Because truth can never be hidden for long.”

....

” Your majesty,” Scholar Wei entered the small pavilion that the Emperor booked whenever he came to see him. He bowed as soon as he walked inside the pavilion and greeted the Emperor who smiled at him pleasantly before he waved his hand aside and said, ” There is no need for you to worry with the formalities, uncle-in-law. Come on sit down.” Despite his airy voice, his hands were clenched in his lap.
