Few days passed and Xing was swinging in the swing Chenglei got for her eating some candied cherries as she was reading a letter she got from Ayane saying that they had gotten behind the trail of a big gang who smuggled poisons from the Fire Kingdom and when they probed further they found the connection between Shihong and the gang leader. She asked her to be wary of the repercussions of the dismantled gang as she worried that some of the members might have gotten into the wind kingdom.

Ayane wrote in detail that when Xing asked about finding the case of the switched medicines for her Uncle's pharmacy they didn't find much first. But when they found a related incident where an important official of their court got sick of poisoning, the investigation got reopened and when the middlemen were interrogated "properly", they spilled the beans that their boss knows someone who knows someone from the fire Kingdom and their gang specialises in getting poisons for assassinations.

'They sang like a bird', Ayane wrote, when they were interrogated by Yi Kwan. Then brother Lee laid a trap and he caught the leader, when asked properly, mentioned Shihong's name. When asked about the switching of medicines meant for the Huang Pharmacy, the leader joined the dots and cursed a silver-haired man who gave him the idea to expand his business to the Wind Kingdom which eventually lead to his incarceration.

Xing had a smile in her lips thinking of her silver-haired Prince. Guess he has started to act! He instigated the leader to mess with the Huang business knowing that she will launch an full-scaled investigation and then one of the associates of Shihong will be brought down. He is always the smart one!

So it won't be too far for me to face Old Rong from now!

Xing was happy and she really missed Chenglei and wanted to meet him soon. She has these dreams where he is touching her all over a lot these days. It is like they say, the monk who tasted meat once would never be a vegetarian! She really wanted her prince more!

The past week, Xing heard that the Emperor visited the Fengyi courtyard three times and felt like the relationship between him and Chu Weiye must be improving. But looking at the Emperor with dark circles in front of her insisting he'd have breakfast with her, she didn't know what to think.

Xing let him in and the maids served him breakfast that was made for her with her waiting for her share to be prepared while she was given a letter.

The Emperor was in deep thoughts as he was physically present here but his mind was elsewhere. Since he had decided that he'll take Weiye as his wife and have kids only with her, he decided to visit her often and the last two times, after dinner, one thing led to another and they ended up on the bed without even talking much. And after that when the maids brought up the bathtub to washup, they couldn't stop getting their bodies tangled together there too.


Even the previous day, he couldn't concentrate the entire day and even the ink he was grinding smelled like Weiye. So he left his duties and unfinished work and went to her courtyard. While walking there, he realised they were only doing "it" and not talking much.

Isn't talking and learning about each other important in a relationship?

So he decided to learn about her preferences and likes that night and even though her bed looked inviting, he started to make conversations but all he could see was her naked body throught the sheer nightgown she was wearing. She came closer to him to get his overcoat as he felt hot and her brown hair flew in the gentle breeze bringing in the scent of blossoms and grazed his face. The next thing he knew is his arms were wrapping up around her waist and him scooping her off her feet and ending up in the bed while tearing off the clothes she wore that covered nothing.

After their hot tussle on the bed, she was cuddled cutely in his arms playing with his hair with her pretty fingers and he was rubbing her back that was smooth and silky. She placed a kiss on his lips and looked at him with her wide eyes that always seemed like it is jumpy,

"Your Majesty! I'm glad you decided to give me a chance to serve you... I really wish to serve you well! ", she looked really cute and that made him happy too.

So he decided to tell her his plan, "Mmm...! Good then... Serve me well... I'll only need you to serve me in the future... And let's raise our children well"

He thought she'd be happy but she had a little darkness in her eyes that he missed. She just went silent for a while and said burying her head in his chest,

"Your Majesty must be bored with that childless woman and making these empty promises to me. But I don't mind that and I love your majesty more than anything and I'll be willing to endure everything with you and treat you as my sky unlike the one who gets more praises than you... I know she is a Huang and is more valuable to you and my family is not as great but my father did give all his military for the sake of the kingdom.... ", she continued.

What is she saying? So is this the infamous pillowtalk?

The Emperor felt like he was poured cold water in his face followed by a brutal slap to his cheek that is followed by a sledgehammer whacking the crown of his head when that woman he opened his heart to, said " Childless woman " about Mingxia.

When she said that, all he could remember was the day Mingxia went unconscious and the doctor told them she won't be able to carry a child. Early in the morning when he searched for his brother, he found him standing behind a tree clenching his chest and weeping silently. His brother whom he had known to be the strongest man ever, was weeping hiding behind a tree, "I'm sorry for not protecting you well, my love!" is what he was repeating in a whisper. He knew how much that hurt them and he still feels guilty that it happened right under his this nose and it was the Eunuch he trusted who poisoned her and why is Weiye is just saying it like that as nothing... She knows nothing about her!

And how could she say that about Mingxia with her mouth after everything she did for her.? She might not know she payed for her dowry but that night in the battlefield, when she was about to be violated by a bunch of men, who saved her?

And 'Childless woman?'. Is that all Mingxia is? She just saved the entire nation standing in front of a fleet of the best navy and won the war on her own! Is this what she'll be called as by someone who could do nothing for her nation?

Despicable! Abhorrent!

His anger level rose and he wanted to kill her then and there.She was the one brought in by the Empress and that already gave her the advantage and with him staying with her, had already made her this headstrong this soon enough to badmouth the one who gave her everything she has. She speaks in a roundabout way that the Empress is still childless and must be deposed. What a scum!

His eyes got darker and his breathing got irregular but he controlled himself clenching his fists.

What if he kills her? Another woman like her would take her place. If only Mingxia was not poisoned, he wouldn't have even bothered with his inner palace and would have stolen his brother's son and made him the next Emperor. Now that he is in a bind to make heirs, would it matter if it is her or someone else?

There won't be someone like that! Mingxia said previously and it is true. Good thing he didn't go too far and fell in love with her or else it would have hurt more...

He knew the moment Xing steps down which will be soon, he'll have to give the phoenix throne to Chu Weiye and that's all she wanted and that's all she'd get. The benefit for serving him and carry his children is the phoenix seal.

Let her be happy with it while I concentrate on the people and my work. I almost forgot my decision to take care of my duties and succumbed to the temptations of a woman... Good thing I got awakened... Or else, I'd have been known as a foolish Emperor who spent his days in the inner palace on the lap of a woman not caring for the people...

Good that I knew...!

He didn't notice a tear drop that rolled out from the corner of his eyes and Weiye who was by his side sleeping didn't know that the man with the biggest heart there is has closed his heart from love because of her stupidity, greed and impatience.

She could have gotten the Emperor's love and the phoenix throne if only she was a little bit patient and even if she tried to understand him a little bit more, she could have been one of the happiest women who got it all and would have been the Empress of the Kingdom and also the Queen of his heart but she ruined it all with her mouth.

*Wheeee! *

Xing's happy squeal brought the Emperor back to reality.

"I'm getting visitors to my courtyard....", she did a happy dance making the Emperor shake his head.

How simple is she! He wondered. True, she never had any visitors as she didn't have any female members of the family till now. Whenever she wanted to meet her family she freely moved around the outer court and met her father and her brother always will meet her in the Imperial Study. Now that she has a sister-in-law and a sister, this is the first time they'd be visiting her in the inner palace. But is it that important for her?

"Hey Kouki! See, now I can tell those other women that I have visitors too...", she was really excited.

But you are the only woman who sits in the Dragon Throne! You could brag about that! He sighed... She really is stupid at times....

"Chu Weiye called you childless woman!", he wanted to tell her but the words got stuck in his throat. He always knew her inability to carry a child is a festering wound in her heart even though she hides it pretty well.

And that made him think.... What plans his brother has to bring her out of the Palace without ruining her name. Surely the Empress cannot leave the palace after divorcing the Emperor. With everything that happened, the court will not let her leave especially when it is proved that she is the divine ruler.

Also if there is a possibility that other women will think of her as childless, his brother won't stay here and let those vicious women attack her. He'd take her away from the capital city to some secluded place just for him and her... And he'll be left alone...

But it is fine, isn't it? They deserve a happy life together after everything that happened, with no one disturbing them. They both deserve it! If only they could have children that would be much better! But... It is fine if they are happy together.

He really wished the best for them.

Xing in her happiness, didn't care much about the Emperor and he left for court. She dressed herself well and waited for the arrival of her family.
