XXXI: This Beau's Master's Enemy (I)
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The empress lost her consciousness and her body fell down on the cold floor once again as soon as Eunuch Yu made his way into the secret room through the roof.
The empress dowager's eyes are nailed at the eunuch. Eunuch Ye Feng was dead many years ago yet some of his facial features remained and stayed the same when he was still alive. The only difference is that he was overflowing with life back then and now, his face contains no emotion at all.
Memories start to flash in the empress dowager's mind.
Back in her younger years, she often met him in the night market. Ye Feng came from a family of merchants and she on the other hand came from a clan of cultivators. They move in different worlds and they could only meet at night where the Ye family opens their business and when she's on her way back from hunting.
If there's one thing they have in common, it's the love for music.
She still remembers how the garden in Xue Sect looked like in the old time

The crashing sounds of the leaves of the trees outside are all they can hear. There are no other people in the imperial library aside from them so the room is very serene. He also hears her silent sobs. He feels the warm tears on his chest. He strokes her hair and planted a small kiss on her head. "I see, you've been strong for a long time." He said in a low voice, almost whispering. This voice, this very voice that she misses the most, sounds soothing as usual. "I'm sorry it took me some time to get in the palace. But it's okay now, I'm here. I won't let you feel lonely again." Xue BaiHua couldn't utter even a single word. She's afraid that if she did, her voice would break. "I am aware of your position as the imperial noble consort but I also know that you're lonely. The emperor only has his eyes on her majesty." He said in a husky voice. Sincerity is evident in his eyes but she can't see it. "Sometimes, we can't have the person we admire the most."

The maid opens her eyes in a sleepy manner, awaken by Court Lady Han's sudden and hurried movements. "What is it Court Lady Han?" The maid said as she closes her eyes back yet her ears are still waiting for her response. "His majesty! I dreamed of him, being dirtied by a pig!" She said. Her voice is a little hoarse. Perhaps it is because she just woke up that her throat feels dry. Or perhaps she got a cold from Eunuch Xu? She angrily said in the back of her mind, "Eunuch Xu, you really didn't do anything well, did you?" The truth is, he indeed dreamed of his majesty but what dirtied him is not actually a pig. It's Xu Zhengming. How did our Mingming dirty him in her dreams? Who knows? But it must be quite interesting. (A/n: Sorry children! XD) "Aiyah, Court Lady Han, we keep on telli

"I'm really sorry, your majesty! Please forgive me! Please forgive me!" Eunuch Xu pleaded as he kneels before Prince Yin Wenyan. The prince, on the other hand, forces a smile. "I told you, you don't have to apologize. I understand, Eunuch Xu." He tried to help him rise to his feet multiple times but the eunuch refuses to get up and continues to ask for forgiveness. Xu Zhengming shakes his head as his hold on the other's robe tightens. The eunuch is very thankful that the emperor or is now in a good mood.

"Your majesty!" Court Lady Han forcefully barged into the emperor's hall. The sun didn't even fully rise in the skies and she's already so full of life... or rather feeling aggrieved. "What is it?" Emperor Yin Renshu annoyingly asks with his eyes still closed. Usually, his court lady would wake him up after sunrise. He wonders why is she making a fuss first thing in the morning. "Court Lady Han, you're disturbing his majesty's rest!" A maid anxiously told the old woman as she pulls her sleeves. The maiden is Court Lady Han's roommate in the servants' quarters. "It's almost time for his majesty to wake up anyway. A couple of minutes wouldn't hurt." The court lady insisted and hurried to his majesty's side. The commotion inside his hall made Emperor Yin Renshu fully awake. Although his head still hurts, he thinks he had enough rest. "What made you very aggrieved, Court Lady Han?" The emperor asks. His annoyance is somehow evident in his cold voice. Of c

She sounded like a child throwing a fit. "Cosmetics really don't suit me."Her lips are tinted with the color red. Her cheeks and eyelids are applied with a rogue. Her hair feels heavy with all these ornaments and hairpins. She indeed looks different now compared to her usual simple appearance. However, it's not true that she looks like a prostitute.

Nevertheless, they must convince his soul to store itself into the soul trapping pouch that the sect leader gave them, and bring him back to Wan Moli Hua Palace. "Hana." Sect Elder Wang stands beside the sect leader. Zhao Yangguang is busy passing spiritual energy to Yin Wenyan's body. "You're doing that for a while now. Let me take over for at least a few hours."

The entire imperial palace is consumed by fire. A lot of people turned into ashes and there are still some that have yet to get burned. Sooner or later, everyone will get the brunt.

Empress Xue Chi strokes her little brother's hair for the last time. He's still unconscious and doesn't have a clue about what's going on.

My Full-time Servant/Lover LXXIV: This Beau Would Never Know It All
The cold blow of the wind sends chills to everyone's spine. The snow is falling down, an indication that the winter season has officially started. It almost seems that the weather just waited for his majesty's last breath before it decided to make the people feel its extreme cold. Although it's getting chilly, it doesn't bother Xu Zhenging at all. He's still staring at Emperor Yin Wenyan's empty container that's starting to lose its remaining warmth. The usual gentle face of his majesty remained even until the end of his last moments. In fact, he just looks like he's just sleeping soundly. However, Xu Zhengming refuses to give in and is still holding on to the little bit of hope he has. He leads his head on his majesty's heavily wounded chest, hoping for at least a weak heartbeat. He listens attentively, waited for a little while but he heard nothing. He's really gone... Leaving his regrets and unfulfilled dreams behind. Of all times, why does he have
My Full-time Servant/Lover LXXIII: This Beau Meets His Old Friend Again (III)
The connection between Emperor Yin Wenyan and his sword weakens due to the failure of passing enough spiritual energy. Through the incantation that the emperor cast, his blade was occupying the deceased eunuch while he's dealing with the empress dowager. Now that the connection is slowly dying, his holy weapon falls onto the roof tiles. Anyone who'll come and see it will say that it only looks like a common sword now that it doesn't possess the majestic aura. "Your majesty...?" Xu Zhengming could only whisper in the thin air. Even though the surroundings are quite dark, the gentle moonlight that is reflected on his majesty's face enables him to recognize him. But as far as he knows, his majesty the emperor is right in front of him. He even talked to him just now. "Who's that..." The silly beau is too confused that he doesn't even know what exactly he has to ask. Although he doesn't know what's happening anymore, he felt his heart is getting unsettled.

Princes Yin Xiulan hurried to Yin Renshu and Xu Zhengming's side. She completely forgot her brother that is fighting to the death with the empress dowager. She even forgot her main reason for going to the empress dowager's hall: to find a way to dispel the activated array. "He's about to go berserk again!" At first glance, Princess Yin Xiulan knows it. She witnessed this before and there's no doubt about it. "What should we do? We don't have Yueguang Hua with us." Since this they didn't encounter such poison before... a poison that could turn the victims into monsters, they didn't know many ways to treat it. The spirit herb, Yueguang Hua, the cure for all medicinal plants, is the only thing that they know that could cure Xu Zhengming. Unfortunately, this flower only grows in the wild. In a place that th

Everyone is having a rough time due to this chaos that has risen. Emperor Yin Wenyan didn't have it easy as well. He can barely keep up with Eunuch Ye. Dealing with this monster for an hour or two will do but he's afraid he can't keep up for the third hour. If this continues, he will eventually get exhausted. The deceased eunuch sensed the order of the empress dowager. As her mere pawn, the creature suddenly backed off from the emperor and immediately headed out of the Union Hall. Emperor Yin Wenyan didn't see this coming. He didn't know why Eunuch Ye suddenly runs out of the hall at full speed. Of course, his majesty won't let him go just like that. He chased after him, hoping on the roof from eves to eves. He followed him closely until they reached the Empress Dowager's Hall where his sister and the empress dowager are in combat. Without any forewarnings, Eunuch Ye grabs the empress dowager on the waist and took her with him away from her opponent.
My Full-time Servant/Lover LXX: This Beau, And Everyone Else Is In Danger
Even though it's in the middle of a chilly night, droplets of sweat are forming on the Empress Dowagers' forehead. She's hiding in a dark corner while she's concentrating the flow of her spiritual energy in her body. There's one more thing that she needs to do before this night ends. The empress dowager is trying to recreate one of the most dangerous weapons that her clan made: the Crimson Javelin. The weapon does not look too different from a normal javelin, except that it has the same color as blood, and it's very deadly. Once injured with this weapon, the victim tends to die in a short time. A poison will quickly circulate in the victim's body and when it reaches the heart, it will immediately turn the organ into an iron (literally), making it an agonizing death due to lack of oxygen. There's no remedy made for it. The javelin doesn't look special in terms of its physical form at all. In fact, it's just a long shaft with a sharp-pointed end. The main diffe
