But in the end, he didn’t do it. After all, Sixth Ding is an important person to him, and many upcoming matters will rely on him.
...
Ziyan Kingdom, within the royal palace.
Ever since Prince Niu proclaid himself emperor, only Empress Zui Yiming has been in the palace, causing dissatisfaction among the court officials.
However, the Emperor insisted, treating all officials equally, leaving them with no choice. They couldn’t possibly force won upon the Emperor, could they?
Even if they have the ability to find beauties, they don’t have the courage to impose them on the Emperor.
Yet there is truly soone daring enough to do this, and that person is the Empress’s family, the head of the Zui Family, the father of Empress Zui Yiming.
"Hmph, they really are audacious!"
Throwing the na card onto the table, Zui Yiming snorted coldly.
"Madam, should I dismiss them?"
The palace maid beside Zui Yiming watched her cautiously and asked.
Ever since the Emperor ascended the throne, every courtier knows that the Emperor solely favors the Empress, never having shown interest in other won.
Even the court officials don’t dare say anything about this.
Yet, it is indeed the Empress’s own family that wants to sneak their won into the harem.
Don’t they realize that it’s already a big deal that the Emperor favors only the Empress, raising the Zui Family’s reputation in Ziyan Kingdom significantly? Yet they still want to bring other won in.
This sort of thing, once there’s a precedent, it never stops. Once any official suggests selecting concubines, the Emperor can no longer refuse.
The Zui Family people are the Empress’s relatives indeed; they just don’t understand the intricacies of the palace.
"Hissing! Huff!"
Zui Yiming took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.
Those people really think she’s made of clay, or perhaps they believe that, because she hasn’t uncovered past events, they can manipulate her.
"Go, bring my mother. Anyone else trying to enter the palace, throw them out!" she said, looking at the palace maid beside her.
"This..."
The palace maid looked troubled upon hearing her words.
"Madam, what if Second Miss insists on entering the palace?"
She’s rely a servant; she couldn’t possibly offend Second Miss, who is the Madam’s own sister.
"This is my order. Anyone who dares enter the palace without a summon, I’ll request the Emperor to lock them in jail! Rember, you are one of my people; apart from the Emperor, no one else can do anything to you. Understand?"
Zui Yiming raised her eyes to glance at the palace maid and said.
"Yes, Madam, I’ll go now," the palace maid, reassured by Zui Yiming’s guarantee, turned and left.
"Huff!"
Zui Yiming exhaled heavily again.
"Madam, should this matter be inford to the Emperor?" Nearby, an older nanny approached, bowed slightly to Zui Yiming, and asked.
"No need."
Zui Yiming waved her hand at the nanny and said.
The Emperor is already overwheld with state affairs; how could she dare trouble him with such minor harem matters?
After all, the chaos left by the late Emperor has left Ziyan Kingdom still unstable, where state matters are of great importance.
