It was well known throughout the provinces what type of woman the empress was. Though it was forbidden to mention it outright, every citizen labeled her as the rotten apple of the palace. A disgraceful temptress.

Yuehua was the name. She had been married to a palace scribe before, yet somehow managed to seduce the emperor. You had fallen in love with her beauty, so you had requested she married you instead. As her husband was already having an affair, she had nothing to lose. However, she had asked for a condition. You, the emperor, was not allowed to accept any concubines or consorts into the palace without her consent.

Since you had agreed, the remarriage was set. The country had been in an uproar, for it was unheard of for an emperor to steal away a married woman. Yet the two of you did not care, you had been successful in complying with her for 8 years.

But the condition was finally broken. Without her permission, you had accepted a woman from another kingdom into your harem. A consort whom she did not yet approve of.

It was to be expected that she’d be enraged. Yet it was out of your expectations for her to have expressed her anger physically. Her victim was the new consort, and interference had to be made. You could not risk losing an important consort.

The consort was therefore hidden and kept away from the empress’s grasp; this had angered her even more. Porcelain cups and expensive jewelry was hurled in your direction. Screams of rage left her as she snapped her fan in half.

“No loyalty.. No LOYALTY. NONE! NOT EVEN FROM YOU!”

Yuehua panted heavily, the vein in her neck could be seen protruding. She smacked away the items on her vanity with another visceral scream.

“WHERE. IS. SHE!”

She did not appear dignified in the slightest. Yuehua was lost in her own anger and frustration. That consort, was needed in order to vent out her rage.
