Chapter 827 - 827 Destroy You
827 Destroy You
The Emperor had come in the middle of the night, which made the empress panicked and anxious. She was not as excited as usual, because she felt that the emperor did not have ‘good intentions’ this time.
As expected.
The Emperor came to the Empress’s chamber. Before the Empress could bow, he had already scolded her angrily. “Didn’t I tell you to stop? Why didn’t you listen? Back then, I had already made it very clear to you that if Jiushang doesn’t like Yuefu, then stop before it was too late. Don’t even think about stuffing Yuefu into the Ninth Lord’s Estate. Why didn’t you listen?”
Although he also hoped that Yu Yuefu would marry Ye Jiushang and had contributed a little to nurturing her, he had already stated in advance that if Yu Yuefu could not obtain Ye Jiushang’s liking, then there was no need to do anything unnecessary and find another good marriage for her.
However, who knew that the Empress and the people from the Grand Preceptor’s Estate would not give up? Recently, small fights had been constantly happening.
He was the ruler of the Ye Dynasty and the Imperial City was under the feet of the Emperor. How could he not know what the Grand Preceptor’s Estate and the Empress had done?
If they had not caused any trouble, he would naturally not interfere. However, this matter had already angered Ye Jiushang, so he could not ignore it.
These two stupid women still wanted to scheme against and use Ye Jiushang. In the end, he only gave the order and they were completely finished.
“Your Majesty, I didn’t do anything.” The Empress wanted to explain, but she did not know how to.
“Then how did some rumors about the Ninth Imperial Consort a few days ago come about? Even I know that those rumors came from the Grand Preceptor’s Estate. How could Jiushang not know? Consort Dowager Jing is completely despised by Jiushang because she meddled too much. That’s why she ended up like this today. If you continue to be stubborn, then pray for yourself.”
“Your Majesty…”
“Also, don’t always think of using Jiushang’s power to help the Third Prince have a future. This way, it’s more likely that the Third Prince won’t have a future to speak of. Back then, the late emperor left more than one imperial edict. I have one or two in my hands, and Jiushang has at least three or four. So you’re on your own.” The emperor did not want to waste his breath on the Empress. If so many reminders could not wake this woman up, then she would court death.
Although the previous emperor had passed the throne to Ye Jiushang, he knew very well that Ye Jiushang had no interest in the throne and would definitely pass it to him. Therefore, when the previous emperor was alive, he had secretly summoned him a few times and repeatedly reminded him that Ye Jiushang would lead the Ye Dynasty to an even more glorious state. On the other hand, he would destroy the Ye Dynasty. Therefore, no matter when or where, he could not become enemies with Ye Jiushang.
He could tell from the late emperor’s words that Ye Jiushang’s future would not be limited to a Ye Dynasty. He would go to a higher place. Therefore, he had never been worried that Ye Jiushang would snatch his throne. Instead, he was worried that Ye Jiushang would give up on the Ye Dynasty.
Because of this, he had worked very hard to manage his relationship with Ye Jiushang over the years. Although he was a little unhappy, he had to face the reality.
The Empress did not know about this. She only knew that the emperor was angry at her because of Ye Jiushang’s orders. This made her very angry. The moment the emperor left, she flew into a rage and smashed things.
“Why should I? I’m the Empress of a country. Why should I be afraid of a small lord?”
She knew that Ye Jiushang had also been looked down on by those emperors and empresses in the Nanling Empire and the Heavenly Saint Empire. However, she, the empress, was different. She was the empress of the Ye Dynasty and the most noble woman in the entire Tongxuan Continent. How could those people compare to her?
“Ye Jiushang, if you can’t be of use to me, I’ll destroy you.”
