Chapter 133: Respecting Elders
Liu Rushuang turned and smirked. “I want nothing more than for the Emperor to not marry me. If there’s nothing else, your majesty, then I’ll be taking my afternoon nap.”
She let out a dull yawn.
“Y-you are extremely daring! In any case, you now carry the Empress’ title, and yet you don’t acknowledge me! Men! Drag the Empress out and give her twenty wooden spanks!” Commanded the Empress Dowager furiously at the guards dressed in yellow.
“Yes, your majesty,” replied two guarss, then stepped into the palace, ready to detain Liu Rushuang.
Liu Rushuang waved her sleeve gently at the guards.
“Ah!” The two guards fell to the ground and simultaneously coughed up blood.
“Y-you… are practically preposterous! I’ll find the Emperor to teach you a lesson! Just you wait!” The Empress Dowager saw that Liu Rushuang’s martial arts were extraordinary, so she led a group of over twenty men to the temple.
Liu Rushuang smirked coldly. Would Han Moze give up marrying her because of the Empress Dowager?
The Empress Dowager quickly arrived at the temple with her men.
Han Moze already knew what had happened, so when he saw Empress Dowager enter, he announced with a chilling voice, “I hope that from now on, you will never go trouble the Empress. Otherwise, I will no longer be polite with you!”
Juse when the Empress Dowager entered the palace and heard the murderous intent in his voice, she suddenly trembled a little. “I-b-but… I am your mother. If you don’t want to call me that, then fine. But you actually dare protect that wench and go up against me?!”
“Are you sure you’re my mother?” Han Moze coldly smirked.
The Empress Dowager’s entire body shuddered when she heard this. So this devil spawn knows everything. He knows that she killed his mother… No! Impossible! It was executed perfectly that day. How could this devil spawn possibly find out? He must be guessing!
The Empress Dowager tried her hardest to feighn composure. “No matter whether your majesty admits it or not, I am your mother. If you don’t discipline that disrespectful Empress, then I will do it for you.”
With those words, the Empress Dowager walked out of the temple.
Han Moze stared at the silhouette of the Empress Dowager’s back with a deadly and ruthless glint in her eyes. It’s time to put an end to past grudges.
The Empress Dowager headed back to her own chambers, dizzy with anger. She took a seat and rubbed her temples non-stop.
“Your majesty, I have a place. I wonder if I should say?” Asked an elegant palace maid dress in pink.
Empress Dowager looked up at the palace maid and waved her hand. “Go on. If it is truly a good plan, then I will definitely reward you generously.”
“Yes, your majesty. I reckon…”
“Good. Let’s go with your idea.” The Empress Dowager’s headache immediately got better, and the devilish look in her eyes were filled with a cruel, murderous intent.
After the Empress Dowager left, Han Moze went to the Dark Moon Palace and walked over to Liu Rushuang’s side. “The Empress Dowager must have frightened you. Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you,” he said softly.
Liu Rushuang sercretly stuck her tongue out. Could she be frightened? “I wasn’t frightened. Is the Empress Dowager really your biological mother?” She asked in a dull voice.
Han Moze took a deep breath and sat opposite her.
“No. My real mother wasn’t a former consort, but the palace made of a former consort. However, very few people know about this. My mother passed away when I was born and I became the son of the consort who pretended to be pregnant. On the first day after my first month, my father had a nightmare where the entire kingdom fell. And so, I became my father’s most hated son. To get my father’s affections, the consort sent me off to the shadow guard’s camp.”
