Ming Yue Ying opened her arms and smirked, "I have sent a lot of people to investigate the Xiao family, it seems they are very busy these days"

"Oh, what are they doing?" Lory asked as she wiped the crumbs from the corners of her lips.

"As he always does" Ming Yue Yin shrugged nonchalantly, "Increasing discontent among high ranking officials about me" Ming Yue Yin didn't sound annoyed as she had known this for a long time.

"Why don't you arrest them?" asked Lory.

"I have several reasons, one of them is because Liang Zu is still unstable even though from outside our military and economy is well developed but the court palace itself is still chaotic even today" Ming Yue Yin waved her hand, and Su Yi who is standing not far from them immediately strides towards to them.

"I'm hungry, immediately serve the wonton noodles," Ming Yue Yin order then she looked at Lory. "You want to try it?"

It's dawned to Lory that she had eaten all types of noodles since Ming Yue Yin arrived but Lory nodded without putting up any resistance answer casually "Why not"

"I will prepare it immediately, Your Majesty." Su Yi saluted them before she left

"One of the reasons is because of my gender" Ming Yue Yin continued the topic smoothly, "Many of them think they can marry their son to me and then gradually seize my authority, the joke on them because I managed to pass the new law to not let anyone who doesn't inherit the blood of the emperor to rule the kingdom doesn't matter if they marry me they still have no authority to control this kingdom and just like that I poured cold water on their wild ambitions" Ming Yue Yin smirked in content..

"Yeah, I can't imagine you able to force all that old patriarchy to agree with your new law" Lory was truly amazed that Ming Yue Yin was able to pressure that stubborn old official into agreeing with her crazy new law despite her young age.

"Well, it's not easy and I got a lot of help from old Zhang, uncle Fu, and uncle Wu," Ming Yue Yin said humbly.

Lory sneered she raised his eyebrows meaningfully "Is that all?" Lory knew it took more than a simple help to rein in a room full of greedy and ambitious parents.

Ming Yue Yin pursed her lips, even now she still couldn't hide anything from Lory. "I did use 'strong' persuasion here and there to get them to agree, after all, they need to be taught who their master is, right?" Ming Yue Yin smiled slyly.

"Right..." Lory stifled a laugh.

In the midst of their conversation, the Su sisters came over with two bowls of noodles and then carefully placed the noodle bowl and cutlery on the table while the other Su Feng brewed new tea for Lory and Ming Yue Yin.

While the Su sisters were busy serving them Lory and Ming Yue Yin continued their discussion.

"Let me guess, many officials are annoyed by this new law and have decided to cooperate with Xiao Bo Zhi," said Lory while sipping the noodle soup.

"So true!" Ming Yue Yin expresses her annoyance "And this caused Xiao Bo Zhi to be so conceited he even dared to collude with Lao Min Na… I guess the Xiao family wants to stage a coup d'etat" Ming Yue Yin slurped her noodles casually as if she was not concluding something so outrageous.

On the other hand, Su's sister's movements stopped and they exchanged horrible looks, although they already knew about this but listening to Ming Yue Yin confirm it personally made their hearts tremble, this is the coup they are talking about!

However, seeing how calm Lory and Ming Yue Yin were they immediately calmed down and continued their duties as if they had heard nothing. The Su's sisters reassured themselves that their Empress must already have a plan.

"Aren't you worried?" Lory raised her brows inquisitively.

"I am..." Ming Yue Yin sigh, "But I think this is also a good opportunity to uproot them once for all, I realized that everyone I got rid of earlier was just a small fry, the biggest culprit responsible for covering up my family's death and destruction of this kingdom is still hiding in my court palace so this time I will identify them all and get rid of them in one fell swoop" Ming Yue Yin wink.

Lory was silent, she spun the noodles with her chopsticks then she looked deeply at Ming Yue Yin, "Need help?"

Ming Yue Yin's gaze grew warm, "Your plate is already full, don't worry about me, I got help" she reassured her.

Lory inhaled then mumbled quietly "Okay..."

Today Zhao Li Xin got an unexpected invitation, normally he wouldn't care about something like this but today he somehow got curious. Zhao Li Xin rides the carriage accompanied by Mong Ki and they head to the outskirts of town that leads to a small tavern.

The tavern looks empty without any guest presence, at the front there are several bodyguards wearing ordinary clothes guarding the entrance and there are also shadow guards hiding around the area, it seems that whoever is in the tavern is not a simple person.

Accompanied only by Mong Ki Zhao Li Xin didn't even budge, Mong Ki helped him lift the curtain and Zhao Li Xin came out without wearing his usual mask. He clasped his hands behind his back as he entered the tavern with Mong Ki following him like a shadow.

Today Zhao Li Xin got an unexpected invitation, normally he wouldn't care about something like this but today he somehow got curious. Zhao Li Xin rides the carriage accompanied by Mong Ki and they head to the outskirts of town that leads to a small tavern.

The tavern looks empty without any guest presence, at the front there are several bodyguards wearing ordinary clothes guarding the entrance and there are also shadow guards hiding around the area, it seems that whoever is in the tavern is not a simple person.

Accompanied only by Mong Ki Zhao Li Xin didn't even budge, Mong Ki helped him lift the curtain and Zhao Li Xin came out without wearing his usual mask. He clasped his hands behind his back as he entered the tavern with Mong Ki following him like a shadow.

a man sat at the end of the table by the open window, the man was modestly dressed but anyone with a discerning eye would know that the cloth was not something the ordinary rich man could afford.

the man was tall with a sturdy posture and he got a refined aura combined with a dashing appearance, he looks regal and dignified; definitely not a common man. 

The man calmly played chess while enjoying a cup of wine as if he had all the time in the world.

Zhao Li Xin sat across from the man while Mong Ki poured wine for him while ignoring the man who had invited his Lord.

although Mong Ki was rude, but the man didn't look offended and neither did his subordinates who seemed to be used to this interaction. The man raised his gaze and smiled faintly at Zhao Li Xin, "I didn't expect you to come?"

"But, here I am" Zhao Li Xin replied curtly as he took a sip of his wine.

The man smiled wryly "Yes, here you are...."

"Why are you here Third Prince, oh I mean Your Majesty…" Zhao Li Xin said sarcastically.

Zhao Yi Chen snorted, "Don't tease me, Li Xin. You know this title means nothing in front of you" Zhao Yi Chen found it ironic that the throne he fought so hard for was something that Zhao Li Xin discarded even though he could easily have it, Zhao Yi Chen didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

"Why are you here, do all the rulers have a lot of free time these days?" Zhao Li Xin recalled the free Lodder Monarch in his manor. why would this emperor and empress take an absence from their job just to annoy him, how could they have so much time?

Maybe he should become the emperor rather than a sect leader….nah, he can't handle people whining at him all the time, he might end up killing his subject instead, Lory wouldn't like that.
