Chapter 5 — Trinh Cuu An, Hau Empress is also a Female Emperor

Today, it was not in vain. But the executioner said he had no right to decide.

"If your Majesty wants to punish me, I will bear the burden alone. But if you don't let me go today, I will have to go down to the Yellow River with Lord Ly."

I brought the executioner to the wall. In the end, because I am now His Majesty's most favored concubine, he did not dare to offend me, so he had to postpone the execution. I ordered Ho Lo to take Lord Ly back to his palace. Before leaving, Ly Ba An clasped his hands and bowed to me, saying he wanted to give thanks on behalf of a hundred families. I return the favor and tell you that when it happens, it's not too late to give thanks. He smiled. Returning to the palace, I took the initiative to kneel at the Queen's palace. As expected, Vien Bang Thanh was furious, wanting to use this as an excuse to depose me.

“The harem is not in charge, you have broken the ancestors' rules.”

I proactively beat myself, using all my strength for each one. I just hope that when His Majesty comes, he will be a little less angry and less suspicious. As soon as Hoa Diem arrived, my face was so swollen and red that it no longer had any shape. He immediately scolded the Queen. In front of all the servants in the palace. Vien Bang Thanh used the excuse of worrying about the overall situation.

"You dare say you don't want me to die to eliminate future troubles?"

Vien Bang Thanh did not respond. For both reasons, she has them. Hoa Diem hugged me back to Trieu Duong palace.

“Your Majesty, I am the wrong concubine.”

But even though I admitted my mistake, the emperor's suspicion did not lessen because of that.

“Cuu An, why did you save him today?”

"I only see that Lord Ly is popular with the people. If he goes against the will of the people and kills him, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will lose the people's favor. But now the foreign clans on the border are threatening, I'm really worried..."

Hoa Diem's face remained unchanged.

“Your Majesty, if today you abolish the law and use money to atone for your sins or change the law, you will definitely win people's hearts.”

Hearing that, Hoa Diem immediately applauded. According to people's opinion, this is truly an excellent solution. I am happier than you. Talented people, I have conquered. As for the foolish and stubborn nobles, they will definitely protest and protect their interests. As a result, the fisherman can only benefit. That night, Hoa Diem gently rubbed my red, swollen cheeks, her eyes filled with pity. I advise people to "fall all the time". So he went to sleep in the palace of a new beauty. We no longer have to drink that bitter cup of birth control pills. Ho Lo asked me if I was afraid? I'm afraid that if Your Majesty falls in love with another beauty, I will no longer have a place in the harem. I'm not afraid. Depending on the mountain, the mountain will fall one day. Depending on people, people also leave sometimes. Besides, this is royalty. Using beauty to serve others, one day the beauty fades and the love fades. In this world, is there any flower that never fades? What I want to do - be the owner of that flower garden.

Finally, under my advice, His Majesty abolished the ordinance on using money to atone for sins. The first person who rushed into the palace to question me was my father.

"Have you forgotten the hatred between the two of you? Why did you help him win the hearts of the people?"

I quietly stood up and offered a cup of freshly brewed tea to my father. At that same moment, I understood. It turns out that in my father's heart, there were no prosperous people. Only power.

"Father, you are the Emperor. He is popular with the people, which is right."

“Once upon a time, between Your Majesty and your mother, what happened?"

My father didn't expect me to ask that question, so he stammered and wanted to avoid it. I ask and don't let go.

“If it weren't for me bringing that maid into the palace, what chance would she have of being favored by the emperor?

But after being favored, she refused to listen to my orders. I just had to send someone to take advantage of her carelessness and push her down the well." My face was pale at that time.

“Father, you are confused. How could you treat your majesty's mother like that?

“You should quickly go to the palace and confess your crime, otherwise, His Majesty will definitely kill you.”

My father waved his hand and slapped me, saying that he raised me for so many years, but his heart was directed towards outsiders.
