Chapter 1937  The Series of Betrayal (3)

Hearing Empress Ye’s words, the maidservants were a bit confused.

Doesn’t Empress Ye valued Luo Qing Wei so much? During the period of time when Luo Qing Wei was bothered by her real family members back then, Empress Ye had spent a lot of effort in order to win over and made Luo Qing Wei more comfortable. Now that Luo Qing Wei was in this predicament, Empress Ye didn’t want to make her move?

But no matter how confused the maidservants were, they would not question Empress Ye’s decision and leave to execute her order.

“What a pity indeed.” Empress Ye caressed the cat in her arm. She never really cared for the girl. If she had, she would never allow Luo Qing Wei to go to the frontline back then and would keep the girl by her side. After all, the main reason why Empress Ye paid attention to Luo Qing Wei was to add more value to herself in front of the Emperor. If not for that, she would not extend a helping hand to Luo Qing Wei back then.

And her plan succeeded.

Even if the Emperor still didn’t favor her and would still choose those younger imperial concubines, he still didn’t make any trouble for her. Instead, her treatment had increased over this period of time and Empress Ye was able to live comfortably. But she knew very well that this was nothing more than a false front, given to her so that she would stay still and didn’t interfere with the matter of the states and also that Emperor Shi Wang’s hobby to stay with his favorite concubines. “Your Highness, the flowers have been sent.” The maidservants came to give report.

“Good.” Empress Ye continued to caress the cat in her arms, not caring about the other news that other people brought to her. Living in the Imperial Palace was very tiring. Many people only saw the glory of this place but they never realized that this was the most dangerous place to be in. The women who tried to enter this place could resort to various dirty tricks in order to survive and be the one who to receive the favor.

Countless women fought for one man.

For what?

For the worthless seat under him. Empress Ye felt that it was truly a mockery because she knew very well how not worthy that man was for the seat under him. If not because of the support of the few families of the women in his harem who wanted a piece of the power, he would never be able to sit firmly on that seat. The powerful ones were these nobles who had real power in Shi Long Kingdom.

Their economic lines and political powers were all very strong and not something that the Emperor could handle easily. The real power has never been in the Emperor’s hand.

At most, he was nothing more than the figurehead standing at the forefront of everyone and looked like he was the one who had the power in his hand while in truth, he had nothing. Just look.

He spent most of his time in the harem and didn’t even bother to pay attention to the morning court.

Because he knew that aside from some things where he needed to be the one to say it, the others would be handled by the court. Since he himself was able to live a comfortable live without the need to do so much, why should he work hard?

It was peaceful so far. But the war with Fei Yang Kingdom would break this long lasting balance of power that Shi Long Kingdom had for so many years. “Your Highness, your uncle is here to see you,” another maidservant came and gave report. “Ah, again?” Empress Ye asked. Even though so, her tone didn’t seem to be surprised in the slightest bit.

She was able to take this seat because of the family behind her.

Naturally, they also wanted to get a piece of the large pie that was handed over to her. Her parents had died many years ago, but her uncles and cousins were all still trying to squeeze all the worth that was possible from her.

The Emperor Shi Wang had never taken any other woman from their clan, so they could only rely on her. For this, Empress Ye felt rather thankful.

That her beauty was inherited from her mother and the rest of her cousins looked rather average. This way, Emperor Shi Wang never paid much attention to them. He loved beauties and never wanted to wrong himself. Thus, her family had no other choice but to come to her and had to support her.

Because they needed her and she also needed them. The balance was created from this. “Tell him that the princess is not feeling well today, so I can’t entertain him,” Empress Ye said calmly. The maidservants bowed and then left to inform Empress Ye’s uncle about her words. ‘Do you really think that you can always squeeze me?’ Empress Ye asked in her mind as she closed her eyes.

It was very tiring to sit on this seat as she had to fight against the other women. Ever since she took Luo Qing Wei in, everything has been much more calmer for her, letting her having a rest.

Now that Shi Long Kingdom was in turmoil with the war, she could see that the situation was not very good anymore. The officials were busy with the matter of the war and had no time to care about the harem. These women also received news from their family and knew how to behave well.

Because they knew that if they made trouble during this period of time, Emperor Shi Wang might not have any patients to deal with them. Putting the cat to the ground, Empress Ye stood up from her seat. She looked at the flower vase nearby and whispered, “It would have been good if Shi Long Kingdom perished.”
