"That b*stard Jian will see whats coming to him, I tried playing nice thinking I'd get what I want but I was too nice, it's time to show him what the Yang's are made of", laughed Xin at the mirror while Bai fixed her hair.

Xin got a gold bottle of perfume from the table and sprayed her neck and inhaled the sweet smell. Her face had a big sneer and large grin across her pink lips.

"Bai when did you say Father will be here?" Xin asked her maid.

"Any moment from now, your highness", Bai said while finishing her masters hair.

"I won't let that fool Jian go to war until I get what I want", Xin mumbled under her breath.

"What was that your highness?" Bai asked.

"Oh nothing, when will you be done with my hair?"

"I just need to insert a few pins and I should be done, your highness".

When Bai inserted the last gold pin there was a knock at the door, Bai went to open it and Minister Yang entered the room.

"Father!" Xin smiled getting up from her stool to greet her Father.

"Your highness you wanted to see me?" Laughed the old Minister hugging his daughter.

"Yes father, Bai leave the palace with the rest of the servants", Xin ordered.

Once Bai left the room Xins happy facial expression changed to a serious one, she gave her Father a secretive look, the minster knew exactly what that meant.

"Speak my dear", the minister said stroking his beard.

"I need to secure my position,In order to do that I need a child", she said.

"Why ask me and not your husband?" Her father laughed.

"He won't sleep with me, we didnt even consummate our wedding".

"I see, what do you suggest I do?"

"Tell the Emperor that we need a heir in court tommorow get the Kangs and others to support the idea, that's the only way".

"Very well, I'll go ask him now in fact".

"If all goes according to plan,this will mean one day you'll be the Empress' father".

Her Father let out a pleased deep laugh, he left the room laughing and the deep echoes of his laugh could be heard in the hallways and Xins room.

"Baby come to mommy", Xin said hugging her white domestic cat.
"Guess what baby!, mommy is going to have a baby brother for you!", she said petting her cat.
The cat purred at Xins touch.
"That's right, your getting a brother!".
