Chapter 6 - Chapter 6

"The emperor is going to come to my chamber tonight that's why I have to look my best but you dared to ruin my hairstyle. This disrespact is not only to me but towards the emperor also. For your insolent act you shell be beheaded this instence." Concubine Xu yelled at poor maid.

This decision of concubine Xu shocked Mika. He knew he shouldn't meddle in someone else's matter but it's against primary human rights. Even if it's someone else's matter, he would definetly stick his nose there. Mika runs at the guilty maid and pushes her from the way of striking sword and saves her head from getting cut down "Even Goddess of beauty has lost all her hopes on your face, what do you expect from this poor soul to do? She is not a magician. You have heard of 'Nothing is impossible' saying right? But some are just impossible like you and beauty in same sentence." Mika helps the maid stand up and looks mockingly at concubine Xu.

At Mika's comment every viewer were shocked for quite good seconds cause they just heard and saw from a far about the changed empress, but it was the first time they experinced her weird change. After the shock and silence, what came was a roar of laughter that made Mika to smirk. Han Zhi, Long Xin and Su Mei were really amazed by his reaction and reply towards the maid and concubine.

"Your majesty, the empress, I apologize for saying straight forward but you can't meddle in any bussiness regarding me and my attendents. Only his majesty, the emperor has the right to do so since you neglected all your duties up until now." Concubine Xu says with angry look on her face. She really was angry at empress for insulting her in front of so many people. "As for his majesty, he had never, and won't in future, restrend us from teaching a lesson to a lowly scum like her." She smirks at Mika "Guards behead her now."

Before guard could lift his sword, Mika stopped him. Mika was really angry. He have seen his mom watching historical dramas where royalties and nobles were cruel to normal people, he thought it was all an act to rase popularity or to create a vicious character through these kind of acts. But to see it happen in reality made him sick and angry at the same time. He now was determind to change the rules to ben these kind of behavior towards innocents or people of lower status. " I accept I abandoned my duties previously but now I am going to do it properly. From now on innocents won't be punished without taking proper actions against them and that's the new rule here." Mika orders.

"Ha Ha Ha...." concubine Xu laughs. "You never cared about your duties and now when you have become lunatic, you came, made a rule and wants everyone to follow you? How can you even think some thing like that? You as well as I know that you are empress only in name. You never had any actual power to have a control over us. So don't think that anyone will follow orders of someone like you. Besides this right has long gone to his majesty himself so if you want us to accapt your orders then ask his majesty to make rule for this. And everyone knows that his majesty won't listen to your baseless complains. Now hand over that maid."

After listeming to her, Mika concluded that nothing will change unless he asks the emperor himeself. He turns around and goes to the imperial court and drags the maid along with him so that she couldn't be killed behind his back. Han Zhi, Long Xin and the three attendents also follows the empress. They were shocked that the idiot made a rule like that out of nowhere and now is going to the emperor from whom she was hiding from some minutes ago.

They arrives at the gates of the Imperial court but were stopped by the guards of the imperial court cause the court was in process right now. They decided to wait for them to finish but three hours passed just like that and it was still in progress. After waiting for three long hours Mika finally snaps "Ah! I can't wait anymore. I am going in. I don''t care if it's still in progress or not." Mika gets up and goes for the huge gate, entrance of the courtroom. He tried to push them but the guards stopped him. He was just tired of waiting so he pressed a nerve behind both of their's nack that resulted in them getting unconscious, which gained him some 'wow's' from his companions, he pushed the gate open and went in the imperial court. Everyone at the court stopped their discussion and looked at him. They saw the empress in clothes that has no embroidery or pattern. Her hairs didn't have even one clip in them , and she didn't wore a single piece of jwelery on her body. It looked like she just woke up and came in the court, her body language was as elegant as a monkey can ever become in it's life. As she stopped in middle of the court, everyone snapped out of their checking of empress's appearance and manners., and started to criticize her for her insolance.

Mika ignored everyone's shouts and started "Your majesty the emperor, please accept my greetings." Mika along with his companions greets the emperor. As soon as the emperor accapted their greeting and wanted to confront her for her act, he was cut off by Mika, who briefed whole incident which just happened and also told the emperor about the decision he made and wanted permission to saibilize the rule.

"I heard your situation but I can't grant you the permission. You are the one wrong here, you should not meddle in someone else's matters. It's concubine Xu's decision to do whatever she wants to do with her attendants, it's not your place to say anything." emperor says looking straight to empress. The court's officials were gazing at her with mock and were grining on empress's humiliation except for a certain general. The empress's companions weren't happy to see her being insulted. Han Zhi and Long Xin were about to say something but Mika beat them in it.

"Utterly trash." Mika says in cold voice., everyone looks at Mika in shock. "It's the first time I saw a rotten trash sitting on a glorious throne wearing a civilized mask, in the court of power hungry pigs." Mika darkly chuckles. His eyes were promising cruel death to the whole court. His fist were clenched so hard that his knuckles were white. He never felt this much infuriated in his whole life.

Silance embraced the entire court. No one was left exception by it. Every present person's face was blank, expressionless. It took them quite a time to come out of this shock. After what felt like a century, they slowly regain their composure and thought to rebuke furiously on empress. It was expected from them to react that way as no one in entire history has dared to call an emperor something insulting like that.

After regaining their composure all the officials pounced on her with their wrethful words as she has commited the greatest crime to disrespact and abusing towards the emperor.

In the midset of all the commotion Mika also gained himself some admires. Chi Han Zhi, Chi Long Xin, Su Mei, enuch Wang and enuch Xiao were firstly shocked at what that idiot said and done something this brave that no one has ever thought. He not only came to save a life but also was fighting a battle despite being powerless. Secondly he mocked emperor and officials openly and that too nailed the point. Lastly they were puzzled and scared cause when did the person whom they saw as an idiot became someone so unfamiliar. He was sanding there straight glaring hard towards the emperor but they still could feel chills running down from their spine. They don't even want to imagin to being center of this deadly glear.

It was not only them who wasn't cursing the empress but was loking at her with some different emotions. The mighty general Mu was eyeing the mother of nation as though he has found an interesting toy of his own. He was once again amazed by her. Be it her bravery, beauty, sharp toung, disabled appearance or even her etiqurtte, he was astonished by all that. He was now looking forward to her next action. He was mentaly prasing his subordinate for forcing him to come here today.
