Stone Hearted Empress

CHAPTER 4: A BLOODY SITUATION

His POV

We were in the middle of discussion about something related to the 'parasites' the empress have told me about.

"We quickly did an action on what happened on the eastern land of the empire and we found nothing but pure mess on there." It was one of the most trusted royal knights of the empress, Yuan Choi.

"Naghanap pa kami ng maiigi sa lugar at napagalaman namin na ang may gawa ng kaguluhan doon ay mga noble people na ang tingin sa sarili ay mas nakakataas pa sa posisyon niyo kamahalan." Seryoso namang saad ni Rezzliey Fuevozzse kaya nakita ko ang pagkuyom ng empress sa mga kamay niya.

"And when we dig even deeper we found out that those are the noble people you assign to make the villager's crops grow bigger but they did nothing but spend all of the money on their greedy selves." Arthurian explained further that made the empress stand up and throw the most terrifying glare I've ever saw in my whole entire 25 years of my life.

"Go to the eastern land and capture all those motherfucking greedy people. All. Of. Them." She strictly said in command that made the four royal knights kneel down and leave.

I was left alone with a furious empress by my side. Her fist is too clenched that it is as white as the gloves she often wear. I need to do something to calm her down.

"My empress." Tawag ko sa kaniya kaya nabaling sa akin ang nakakamatay niyang tingin. I gulped. I never saw her this angry ever since I lived in the same palace as she does so this is new to me.

"This is not the time to sweet talk me Rawwel. My people is suffering because of those people and I can't let that fucking happen!" She said with a very very serious and authorized voice. I give up, she's far more scary than she usually is and I don't want to die yet.

I just hope those people will not have execution as their penalty for disobeying the empress' orders.

Yuan Choi's POV

The four of us is riding our horses while heading to the direction of the eastern land. Her highness have given us her order so we will obey it in behalf of the villager's sake.

"Those people will have a very very torturing death for disobeying and underestimating the empress." Bulong ko sa aking sarili at mas pinabilis pa ang pagtakbo ng aking kabayo.

NAKARATING na nga kami sa aming destinasyon at mas lumala pa ang nadatnan naming eksena kesa nung una. The villagers are all scattered around the area and some of them were even crying infront of those people who think so highly of themselves.

“Pakiusap po ay ibalik niyo na sa amin ang lupa na pinagtataniman ng aming pamilya! Iyon lamang po ang pinagkukuhanan namin ng pagkain sa araw-araw naming pamumuhay!”

“Huwag niyo pong kuhanin 'yan! Ayan na lamang ang tanging natitira na alaala namin sa aming ina!”

“Mama!!!”

“Anak ko!!”

I clenched my fist along with my jaw when I heard the plea of all these innocent people just because the government in this land is corrupt and cruel.
