Chapter 537 The Empress Dowager and the Ministers

He is, after all, the Emperor!

Following the direction of Master Apricot Leaf's kneeling, Yun Shi looked at the teenager, his eyes filled with astonishment.

The standing tasseled crown and the yellow coat are indeed the symbols of the imperial nobility of Terra Nova.

But, this young man, he is actually the Emperor.

"Mute, why don't you kneel down!"

The apricot leaf matron raised her eyes to the unresponsive Gu Yunshi and chided.

"Eh, forget it, forget it ...... Master Chief, you get up too."

Meeting Yun Shi's eyes, the teenager's face flushed red and blushed as he explained: .

"Granny, I don't mean to deceive you ...... I, I didn't eat well in the evening meal, and I was really hungry just now."

Yun Shi's complexion returned to normal, pursed her lips and waved her hand, indicating that she didn't mind.

Heh, how could she mind?

She was begging for it!

The hostess rises obsequiously and comes up to nod at the teenager :)

"Your Majesty, Ah Yun, she's just a mute, what else do you want to eat just let me know and I'll come and get it for you."

The teenager's brows were stony, and he didn't even look at the hostess.

He didn't really like his conversation with the old woman being interrupted so easily, not to mention he didn't like the food handmade by Apricot Leaf.

"Lord Master of the House, please step back, I've already eaten my fill, and I just want to speak to Granny Yun alone now."

The hostess has a good awkward expression, turning her face to look at Yun Shi, squeezing out a little smile: .

"Then I'll trouble Ah Yun la, take good care of the king."

When she exited, the teenager changed to a pleasant smile again and pulled Yun Shi back to the stove: .

"Granny, teach me to draw with sugar!"

Yun Shi smiled and nodded, rattling the firewood in the hearth with an iron hook, adjusting the fire to the right level, and re-brushing oil onto the iron plate.

Scooping half a spoonful of syrup from the bucket and handing it to the teenager, she leaned in close to him, holding the hand in which he held the spoon and moving it slowly toward the iron plate to pour the sugar.

Waiting a moment, she handed the shovel to the teenager.

The teenager was so excited that he dropped a shovel to get the sugar, but the force was too much and the good sugar painting shattered.

Seeing that the teenager looked dejected, Yun Shi smiled charitably.

Shoveling the crushed sugar from the iron plate, she raised her hand to pat the teenager's shoulder and shook her head to signal him to continue.

The teenager's brow was firm, took a deep breath to start over again, and followed the prompts of Yun Shi's hand gestures to slowly lower the shovel, and with a steady maneuver, he finally made the whole piece of sugar painting perfectly detached from the iron plate.

"I did it, haha, I made this! Look granny, does it look like a toad?"

Yun Shi laughed and gave him a big finger, but saw him open his mouth and directly bit off most of that hard candy shell, chewing hard like an entrance vent, swallowing while muttering in a low voice:.

"Fat toad, watch me bite you to death...watch me eat you...damn fat toad!"

Yun Shi watched from the side and only found it strange and funny, she didn't understand why he hated the fat toad painted in sugar so much.

With the remaining syrup, the teenager made shapes of cherry blossoms, maple leaves, goldfish, and kites.

Holding up the candy painting with one hand, he grabbed Yun Shi with the other and ran out of the big cooking hut, and cheerfully said to her.

"Come on, I'll take you to see the Queen Mother, I'm going to appoint my mother-in-law to be the loose chef of the Birthday Feast, no, I'm going to hire you to be the chef of the Great Cooking Hut!"

The first step of the program ...... was successful!

Yun Shi had mixed feelings in her heart, how many days of day and night of the pain of displacement, in a foreign land of loneliness and helplessness, these sins finally did not endure in vain.

She obediently followed the teenager as he ran into the palace and up the stairs to the fourth floor.

Just as he turned onto the second floor he was stopped by two men.

The short boy was about the same age as the teenage emperor, dressed in a damask and silk regalia, not wearing a tasseled crown, and with a few pockmarks on his pointed face, which looked like a waxwork.

Face to face with his half-brother the Emperor, the pockmarked boy did not even salute, his slender eyes were fixed on the shiny candy paintings, and he asked in a cold voice.

"What's in your hand?"

The Teenage Mikado revealed a disgusted expression, backhandedly hiding the sugar painting behind his back, and replied in the same icy tone: .

"It's up to you! Go away, I want to see Mother!"

"Hahahaha ......" the sack-faced boy laughed twice maniacally, switching to a teasing tone of voice :)

"I'm afraid it wouldn't be a good time to go, your cross-dressing mother is talking to Grand Admiral Wamo ......"

"Asshole what did you say-"

The teenage Emperor's pupils glowed brightly as he roared in anger and rushed towards the pockmarked boy.

Just as Yun Shi fought to stop him, the tall man across the street, wrapped in a cloak, reversed himself and shielded the provocative boy from: .

"Prince Taku, you shouldn't be so unreasonable to His Majesty the Emperor. It is beneath your noble status to speak in such a manner."

This feminine voice ......

Yun Shi was shocked to hear this, and she couldn't help but drive her gaze towards the figure who was preaching in Terra Nova.

The hood on his head was so large that it covered almost his entire face, making his features completely invisible to onlookers.

Doubtful, Yun Shi was dragged straight up the stairs by the angry Mikado and slammed towards the fourth floor.

Behind him was the jeering of the commoner brother, Yutaka Fuchi.

"Hmph, who are you to be angry with me? Who doesn't know that you got the throne that day only by your mother maneuvering around the ministers and providing for them with her body-"

The person wrapped in a cloak next to him kept a pair of sinister gazes fixed on Gu Yunshi's back, his thin lips pursed lightly under the hood, pulling out a hint of arc in a ghostly manner.

Is the thing in the hand of His Majesty the Emperor ...... a sugar painting?

From that old lady?

It's something that's only found in the Middle Kingdom!

Walking quickly to the fourth floor in front of Empress Yuan Ya's bedchamber, the teenage Emperor's figure stopped, and his two stunned eyes stared directly at the two intertwined black shadows on the barricaded door.

"...... You followed Kamakawa by water simply broke my heart, you should know that in my heart I don't like Fuchia Taku at all. For your sake, I will also strive to protect Quan Qing's position as Emperor. How to repay me, you should know, right?"

A man's voice, sounding greasy and lewd.

The woman's attitude is clearly reluctant, and her slender figure struggles and twists, reflected clearly by the white baffle paper:...

"Stop it, please let go of me. Haru is growing up day by day, so please take care of his feelings and give him some face in front of the minister."

The humble supplication seemed to spark a desire deep within the man's body and he pressed on :

"What I'm going to do with him is all up to you, Empress Dowager ......"

"Wow"-

The barricaded door was pulled open by the teenage emperor, and the man in the bedchamber immediately let go of the woman and slowly got up to straighten his robes.

"The king is not in bed at this late hour, why is he with a pariah?"

Flesh bubble eyes coldly swept across, looking at Gu Yunshi's vulgar old woman's disguised image, the fat man impatiently locked his eyebrows, his mouth "tsk tsk" twice.

Yun Shi had a lowered brow and hanging hand attitude, quietly hiding the inches of cold sharpness under his eyes.

The teenage emperor looked straight at the fat man, his right hand trembling as it gripped the sugar-painted bamboo skewer, and his eyes crying out with aggressive fire:

"General Kazuma, isn't it also not resting at this late hour?"

The question, word for word, seemed to have been squeezed raw from viciously clenched teeth.

Yun Shi moved inwardly.

As it turned out, the fat man was one of the three auxiliary generals of Ying Kingdom, He Maojie.

Observing its honorable appearance, it is not strange why just now the little emperor preferred to use the fat toad as a candy picture, and cursed and chewed it in a few mouths!

However, the empress dowager and the minister ...... of this Yuanya clan s court life is really more chaotic than that of the royal family of South China of the Great Yi.

Suddenly her body stumbled and nearly fell, forcing Yun Shi to terminate her fluttering thoughts.

As it turned out, it was the moment Wamochi stepped out of the barricaded sliding door and hit her hard with his fat body.

Then, watching her fall back in her clogs, he slapped his hand on his round belly and let out a laugh, before saying.

"Alright, it's too late, I won't disturb the king and empress dowager to rest, farewell."

With those words, the fat man strides down the stairs like a rampaging crab.

"Mother, are you all right?"

The Teenage Mikado went to help the woman on the floor with one hand, and Yun Shi came to help.

"Haru, who is she?"

Seeing Yun Shi's white shirt and blue pants dressed as a handyman, Empress Yuan Ya was a bit surprised.

"She is the mother-in-law who can make cinnamon scented oil eggs. Mother, look ......"

The teenage Mikado handed the woman the sugar painting in his hand and exclaimed.

"She taught me how to make this, this candy not only looks good but also tastes good, try it, it's very sweet!"

The Empress Dowager took a bite and smiled elegantly.

"It is indeed sweet and takes your mind off your troubles the moment you eat it ......"

The young emperor climbed onto his mother's arm.

"Mother, I want to hire my mother-in-law to cook for me, I like to eat her food."

The Empress Dowager looked at her son with eyes full of favor, pondered for a moment, and tilted her face to look at Yun Shi: .

"Since the king has requested it, it would be a pleasure."

Wagamuffin walks down the stairs to the first floor and encounters the man wrapped in a cloak.

"Aiya, don't run out in the middle of the night to scare people if you're wearing these ghostly clothes!"

Startled by the ghostly figure, the fat man lashed out.

Opposite that can not see the face of the person slightly owed, sheep voice Yin charm as water, but can not hear half a bit of anger, on the contrary, there is a hint of joy in the dark.

"My humble servant has just gone to send Prince Tuo back to his room to settle down, and in the middle of it, I found a great joyous event to be secretly
