Empress with no virtue |LK ADAPTATION|

CHAPTER 91

Ye Lisa and Ji Jungkook spend some time at the mountain, after a while when the wind blows, it become a little too chilly. The both of them decided to return.

Back at the palace, when Su Yue and the rest saw Ye Lisa it was as though as they were in another time zone. Previously when the emperor returned to the palace alone, they knew something was wrong, though they did not dare to ask. Today upon seeing the return of the empress, they can't help but be filled with tears, though not daring to cry out loud, they just looked down letting their tears drop. Wang You Cai's shoulders were moving non stop to his cries, Ye Lisa asked him to look up, but upon seeing his tear streamed face and bubbling nose, she immediately asked him to look down.

After changing her clothes, Ye Lisa remained at Kun Ning Palace to reunite with the rest, while Ji Jungkook headed to Yang Xin Hall, where Fang Xiu Qing was already waiting.

What Fang Xiu Qing had in mind, Ji Jungkook knew in his heart. Fang Xiu Qing definitely was worried about the safety of the emperor, but to what extend was the question. This old fart was able to find the exact spot of that place meant that he definitely knew the contents of the secret letter. He knew that if troops were involved, the live of the empress was not guaranteed, but still brought troops over. This meant that he did not care about the livelihood of the empress, or he did it on purpose to make sure she will not be able to live. To be able to protect the emperor and to get rid of the empress was hitting two birds with one stone.

Ji Jungkook's face darken with his thoughts. Once a person has led a smooth life, they will start to act cocky. This Fang Xiu Qing is getting way ahead of himself. For a minister to be able to call upon the army to his use, has always been a taboo, and easily held on as an evidence later. Seems like this old fart's smartness while fighting with Ye Xiu Ming is gone.

Fang Xiu Qing was kneeling in Yang Xin Hall, with his heart up to his neck. Before the arrival of the emperor, he didnt need to kneel, but he knew this time he is in deep trouble. Moving the troops to protect the emperor was indeed a risky move, however he does not regret his actions. The safety of the emperor is the utmost important, even if the empress was not involved. However, if the empress died it would have been better... But he found out that he calculated wrongly. The emperor's feelings towards the empress was way beyond his imagination. This means that, for himself the death of the empress would have been killing two birds with one stone, however for the emperor, Fang Xiu Qing's actions will be deemed very very wrong and unforgivable, if anything were to happen to the empress.

The emperor is a calm and smart person, this type of person will be more extreme if they were to place importance to their feelings. For a man, if the matter of life and death of his woman is involved, his actions will be purely be relying on how important this woman is, in his life.

Now.. for this case, its very very serious..

Fang Xiu Qing was very cautious on handling this matter. The moment he stepped into Yang Xin Hall, he immediately kneeled down to await for the emperor. He was going to accept all allegations by the emperor and admit his faults, but of course to emphasize that all he has done was to ensure the safety of the emperor. That he was too focused on the emperor's safety that he forgot about the empress's safety, and definitely did not do it on purpose.

Irregardless, it seems that Fang Xiu Qing knew the emperor's mind really well.

After arriving at Yang Xin Hall, Ji Jungkook listened to Fang Xiu Qing's explanation and replied coldly "There is a saying, that the daughter mimics the father, however it looks like Minister Fang is instead following the footsteps of your daughter's foolishness?"

That sentence contained alot of messages, Fang Xiu Qing understood the emperor's meaning immediately: Don't think that "I" don't know what you were planning. You thought that if the empress is dead, then your daughter will have a chance, but I am telling you now, there is no chance!. Because "I" hate her foolishness, if you are as foolish as your daughter, then "I" will also hate you.
