King's Regrets
Eps 7's

The next day, according to the orders of Empress Yan, neither Xiao Wei nor the other servants came to the room of Empress Yan when Empress Yan had not yet awakened from her sleep.

All did that because they were unwilling to disturb Empress Yan's sleep.

But today unexpectedly concubine Ning came to visit Ju's palace with her loyal servants and some bodyguards from the palace.

"Greetings to concubine Ning." Xiao Wei.

"Yes. Tell Empress Yan if I want to meet her." Said concubine Ning arrogantly.

"Sorry concubine Ning, your highness the empress is still in her room and hasn't woken up yet."

"Are you saying, Empress Yan is not awake yet? Does he no longer obey the rules of the kingdom?"

Consort Ning who was feeling annoyed walked quickly towards Empress Yan's room.

"Concubine Ning, I beg you not to disturb Empress Yan's sleep." Xiao Wei tried to block concubine Ning.

"Get out of my way. Not because you're Yan's consort's servant, you'll dare to stand in my way."

Xiao Wei did not care what concubine Ning said, she still tried to block concubine Ning from breaking into the room of empress Yan.

"I told you to get out of the way, you lowly servant!"

Concubine Ning pushed Xiao Wei's body until she fell to the ground.

Brak!

The door of Empress Yan's room was wide open, a cold aura instantly felt as soon as Empress Yan walked out of her room.

"Guards! Who allowed this madman into my Ju's palace?" Empress Yan.

Concubine Ning looked at Empress Yan sharply.

"Who do you call a madman, Empress Yan?" Said concubine Ning.

"If not a madman then what? You concubine Ning, have already made a fuss in Ju's palace, and have also hurt my servant, empress Yan."

"It's worth it, because it's getting in my way."

"Kneel you now!"

Concubine Ning was stunned to hear empress Yan ask her to kneel.

"You don't want to do it?"

"Did you think I would do it just because you were Yan's consort?"

"Of course you should do it concubine Ning. Do you feel that your position is higher than that of noble empress Yan?" Say someone.

Consort Ning and empress Yan looked towards the main door of Ju's palace, where little king Xuan Yuwen was standing looking intently at concubine Ning.

"Yes... Your highness the little king." Murmured concubine Ning.

Xuan Yuwen walked up to Empress Yan without seeing concubine Ning.

"Who do you think wouldn't kneel before Empress Yan? Even I had to bend my body when I met Empress Yan. Do you already feel that your position is higher than Empress Yan or higher than me, concubine Ning?" Xuan Yuwen stared intently at concubine Ning.

"Ampuniated noble servant of the little king, I do not mean that." Said concubine Ning while hastily kneeling in front of Xuan Yuwen and empress Yan.

"Guards, take concubine Ning away from here now! And tell everyone that concubine Ning is not allowed to go to the palace where Empress Yan lives."

"Your highness, forgive your noble servant. I will never repeat it again, I beg you to forgive my noble servant." Said concubine Ning fearfully.

Xuan Yuwen did not care about what concubine Ning said.

"Greetings to the empress' sister-in-law. Forgive Yu'er who just came because Yu'er just found out that the empress' sister-in-law is here." Xuan Yuwen said to Empress Yan.

"It's okay, you don't be too hard and don't be so formal with me."

"Alright then, sister-in-law."

" Come in, I have flower tea that the waiter at Ju's palace has just made."

"Good sister-in-law."

Empress Yan and Xuan Yuwen left concubine Ning who was still kneeling on the ground along with her loyal servant.

Concubine Ning who saw empress Yan and Xuan Yuwen leave just clenched her teeth and squeezed the clothes she was wearing.

"Empress Yan and you Xuan Yuwen, I will avenge you both."

Concubine maid Ning helped concubine Ning stand up then helped clean the clothes of concubine Ning.

"Your majesty, it is better now that we leave Ju's palace and tell you what Empress Yan has done to you to her majesty."

"Yes you're right. Your highness the emperor should know what I've been through this morning."

Concubine Ning turned around and left Ju's palace with her servant and some of the bodyguards that went along with her.

"Yu'er, why did you come so early? Even I just woke up from my sleep."

"I'm sorry Yu'er sister-in-law, it's because Yu'er felt worried after Yu'er found out if brother-in-law was in Ju's palace."

"What to worry about? I'm happy to stay here."

"Sister-in-law?"

"This is quite comfortable, quiet and certainly because it is quite far from the royal palace where your brother lives."

Xuan Yuwen could not believe what he was hearing. Empress Yan, who had always pursued and would not be left behind by Emperor Shun, said she was happy to stay away from Emperor Shun.

"Ka.. Brother-in-law, you're not kidding, are you? What you said..."

"I'm not kidding. You're too young to understand everything."

Xuan Yuwen looked at Empress Yan, he was really still in disbelief.

"Do you still not believe that I no longer care about your brother?"

"No, not so brother-in-law. I'm just a little worried."

"You take it easy, I won't let him hurt me again."

"Because I am not Qing Lian who will accept all the insults and blows from emperor Shun, for the sake of a word of love."

Empress Yan took out a small cup of tea and sipped the flower tea gracefully.

"So tell me, how are things out there?" Ask empress Yan.

"Everything looks the same. Does sister-in-law want to get out?"

"Are you going to take me out of Ju's palace?"

"If sister-in-law wants to, Yu'er will definitely bring sister-in-law for a walk in the capital market."

"Of course you want to."

"Alright then, tomorrow Yu'er will take sister-in-law away."

"But... I can't go out in clothes like this. If your brother's bodyguard finds out, maybe I'll be cut off right away."

"Is sister-in-law afraid?"

"Of course not, it's just...."

"I haven't avenged the owner of this real body to that Shun emperor."

"What is sister-in-law?"

"Ah it's okay, it's just that I don't want emperor Shun to take that matter to my family."

"Sister-in-law is right. Then tomorrow Yu'er will come again with the men's clothes for sister-in-law."

"Do you want me to impersonate a man?"

"It's just a way for brother-in-law to be able to get out of this palace for a while."

"All right, I get it."

After they spoke to each other, Xuan Yuwen said his farewell and promised to come again tomorrow.

**

In the royal palace, according to the plan of concubine Ning. Upon his arrival at the king's palace, he went straight to the emperor Shun and told him what he had experienced at Ju's palace this morning.

By saying all that to emperor Shun, concubine Ning hoped that emperor Shun would get angry and give the punishment to empress Yan and ordered Xuan Yuwen to return to the academy.

Emperor Shun was silent after hearing all the stories from concubine Ning, he was as if he was understanding the truth that concubine Ning said.

"Empress Yan dared to order concubine Ning to kneel, did she dare to do that?"

All this time emperor Shun knew very well how Empress Yan was when faced with concubine Ning, so it was impossible if empress Yan dared to do that.

But when emperor Shun saw how empress Yan's attitude was when she first arrived at the palace, she went back to thinking about what concubine Ning had said.

"Your Majesty, please give justice to the servant. Empress Yan had already humiliated the servant in front of the noble little king." Said concubine Ning with her powerful voice.

"I will give you justice after meeting Empress Yan tomorrow." Emperor Shun.

Concubine Ning nodded then she leaned her head against Emperor Shun's chest.

"Empress Yan, what if you were an empress in this palace? The most noble woman still likes me."

Concubine Ning revealed her sly smile.
