Chapter 201 Pray For Yourself

At the same time, in the inner courtyard of the Imperial Palace, the Heavenly Saints Emperor personally came to the Empress’s chambers and threw the imperial decree she had issued at her. He scolded, “Why did you issue the imperial decree for no reason? Do you know how much trouble this imperial decree will cause? It’s fine if that girl Yun Qiao is causing trouble herself, but why are you putting your nose in it? Do you really think the Ninth Imperial Uncle is someone who can be easily bullied?”

Even he, the Heavenly Saints Emperor, was afraid of Ye Jiushang. These women actually dared to provoke him. They were simply courting death.

Despite being the Heavenly Saints Emperor, he could not decide the position of the Ninth Imperial Consort, let alone these women in the harem who only knew how to compete for favor.

Although the Empress felt that the matter of the imperial decree was nothing big, the Heavenly Saints Emperor was too angry. She grew nervous and afraid. Kneeling on the ground and trembling, she asked in confusion, “Your Majesty, I only issued an imperial decree to let Yun Qiao enter the Ninth Lord’s Estate. I didn’t do anything else! Did that girl do something to anger you again?” “Idiot, your imperial decree is a more serious matter than Yun Qiao causing trouble.”

“How could that be? I only issued a decree to let Yun Qiao enter the Ninth Lord’s Estate. This is not a big deal!” The Empress still did not believe that her imperial decree could cause so much trouble. The worst outcome would be Ye Jiushang disregarding her imperial decree. As long as she did not mind, wouldn’t that be fine?

No matter what, she was the Empress of the Heavenly Saints Empire. So what if she issued an imperial degree to her subjects?

The Empress’s thoughts were not wrong. As the Empress of a country, issuing an ordinary imperial decree was nothing. Even if something really happened, it would not be a big deal.

Therefore, she could not understand why the Heavenly Saints Emperor would be so angry. This did not make sense.

Regarding Ye Jiushang’s mysteriousness and power, in the entire Heavenly Saints Empire, apart from the Heavenly Saints Emperor, only the Grand Imperial Sire and the Great Ancestor, who was in seclusion, were aware. Everyone thought that Ye Jiushang was only an Imperial Uncle with some strength. No matter how strong he was, he was still a subject of the empire. Those who were at the top did not have to take him seriously.

Therefore, in the entire Heavenly Saints Empire, and even the Tongxuan Continent, apart from the Heavenly Saints Emperor and a select few, everyone thought that Ye Jiushang was merely an Imperial Uncle. He was just a little stronger, a little mysterious, and had a strange temperament. There was nothing special about him.

Only those who knew Ye Jiushang’s true background, such as the Heavenly Saints Emperor, knew how terrifying this person was.

However, the Heavenly Saints Emperor would not reveal Ye Jiushang’s secret, nor did he dare to. He said coldly, “Since you want to die, I won’t stop you. You’re on your own.”

“Your Majesty, tell me what on earth is going on? No matter how strong the Ninth Imperial Uncle is, he is only an Imperial Uncle. Could it be that Your Majesty is afraid of an Imperial Uncle? Your Majesty, you are the supreme ruler. If the Ninth Imperial Uncle really threatens your imperial authority, why don’t you think of a way to get rid of him?”

“What nonsense are you spouting? Fool.” In a rage, the Heavenly Saints Emperor kicked the Empress away, even using his cultivation power. She spat a lot of blood.

The Empress finally realized the gravity of the matter. Just as she started to feel apprehensive, an old servant suddenly ran in and said in a panic, “Empress, something bad has happened.” Then, the old servant noticed the Heavenly Saints Emperor. She was so frightened that she dropped to her knees and kowtowed. “Greetings, Your Majesty.” “Speak, what happened?” The Heavenly Saints Emperor was in no mood to talk nonsense.

Seeing the Empress in a bedraggled state, the servant thought that the Heavenly Saints Emperor knew what had happened outside. She said, “Your Majesty, there are some rumors flying outside tarnishing the Empress’s reputation, especially about General Qu. Someone started it, and now, everyone in Heavenly Saints City is talking—”.

“What?” the Empress asked in alarm. She was on pins and needles, feeling that the sky above her was about to collapse.

“Rumor has it that the Empress framed General Qu and his family and harmed the loyalists. Her purpose was to support the Duke of Zhongyi.”

How could this be?

These things had been done so secretly back then that no one knew at all. Why was it suddenly out in the open?

The more the Empress thought about it, the more uneasy she became. Ignoring her injuries, she quickly explained to Heavenly Saints Emperor, “Your Majesty, I was wronged. General Qu’s matter has nothing to do with me!”

“It looks like the Ninth Imperial Uncle has started taking action. Empress, you can pray for yourself.” The Heavenly Saints Emperor did not even have the patience to be angry with the Empress now. He flicked his sleeve and left ruthlessly.

He would not pay for these women’s stupid actions. Let them bear Ye Jiushang’s anger themselves.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, listen to me. I was wronged. General Qu’s matter has nothing to do with me. Your Majesty…”
