Chapter 6: 6. I have the potential to be a tyrant

Translator: _Min_ Editor: Rainystars

The empress got up at six in the morning.

After her personal maid dressed her, the empress had to go and greet the empress dowager, and after she finished her greeting, the concubines had to come to greet her, as the empress.

After that, it was time to have breakfast.

During this period, Chen Mo's job was to bring hot water for the Empress. After the palace maid helped with the empress' make-up, if the empress didn't order him to follow, he would go to prepare breakfast.

As the Empress, her personal kitchen served her, so she could order what she wished to eat in advance.

The place where Chen Mo lived was the servant quarter in the Weiyang Palace, because he was recognized by the empress, he had a room to himself. Before, he slept in a big bed like Little Mirror and the others .

The area of the servant's quarter was on the south side of the empress's bedroom. After he made it through two long corridors, he arrived at the bedroom.

Strictly speaking, today was Chen Mo's first time working as a eunuch, and he had to serve the empress.

His heart pounded furiously with anxiety.

Based on what Little Mirror had said, he just had to bring hot water into the outer hall of the bedroom, and then the empress' personal maid would bring the hot water into the inner hall.

But when Chen Mo entered the outer hall with a basin of hot water, he didn't see any maid, only the smell of sandalwood lingered in the room.

Although there was only one bead curtain that separated the inner hall from the outer hall, it would be disrespectful to enter rashly without the empress' permission.

It would be a light punishment if he was sentenced to spanks, a serious punishment would be death.

He was not a depot master. In the harem of the palace, the life of the eunuch was as miniscule as an ant.

Just when he was at a loss, Wang Ying, who bent his waist at a full fifty degrees, along with a palace maid, hurried in, and said in his high-pitched voice: Little Chen, did the empress get up yet?

Chen Mo was confused, I didn't go in, how would I know?

Chen Mo shook his head and glanced at the maid behind Wang Ying.

As expected of a maid who could enter the Weiyang Palace, her appearance was absolutely stunning.

That's good. Wang Ying breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and said to the palace maid behind him, Cai'er, hurry inside.

After the maid named Cai'er bowed down respectfully and nodded, she took the hot water from Chen Mo's hand and walked in.

At the moment when she met Chen Mo's eyes, Cai'er was slightly surprised, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.

Chen Mo gazed at Cai'er's back and his expression was more of a helpless one.

It's a sin to be too handsome!

No, I seem to remember that the empress' personal maid is not called Cai'er!

Although he was puzzled, Chen Mo did not ask Wang Ying and adhered to the principle of listening less and doing more.

But even if he didn't ask, it didn't mean that Wang Ying was not going to say anything.

Wang Ying read the doubts in Chen Mo's eyes and he whispered, As someone close to the empress, you have to know about it sooner or later. I will tell you now. Last night, your Majesty came to the Weiyang Palace, and Qing'er wanted to take the opportunity to seduce His Majesty, but in the end, His Majesty ordered her to be killed with a cane

Chen Mo didn't know what to say.

Good lord.

As far as he knew, the emperor was no longer able to perform in bed.

Seducing him at this time.

Isn't it courting death?

But in this harem, there were many palace maids who wanted to use this opportunity to take the leap of faith to become phoenixes.

It was just that many people lacked the opportunity.

Chen Mo showed a look of fear.

Wang Ying, who saw Chen Mo's frightened expression, snorted with disdain, and immediately after, said with a hint of pride, Don't say that I don't look out for you. When the princess and the crown prince come down in the morning, I specifically arranged for you to be serving inside. Even if others want this opportunity, I won't give it to them.

Thank you motherfu*ker The corner of Chen Mo's mouth twitched. While he was cursing out in his mind, he still had a smile on his face: Thank you, Chief Wang.

Bang!

Suddenly, the sound of porcelain falling to pieces came from the inner hall. It was followed by crying and begging for mercy. Your Majesty, please forgive me, I didn't do it on purpose, the Empress, please forgive me

Wang Ying and Chen Mo's expressions changed at the same time when they heard what happened inside.

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

You stay here, let me go take a look first. Wang Ying opened the bead curtain and walked in.

Chen Mo nodded.

Soon, Wang Ying's scolding of Cai'er came from inside, followed by a voice as sweet as a songbird. Wang Ying, I asked you to find a meticulous person, so you went out and found such a clumsy person to fool me?

I do not dare, please forgive me, Your Majesty. When I observed Cai'er's work, she had done them quick and easy, so I thought she is a meticulous person, but I didn't expect

Forget it, go get some more hot water for me. What happened last night already made me get up late. If we miss the time, I will not spare you.

Yes.

Then, Wang Ying hurriedly left the room, and asked Chen Mo to get another basin of hot water.

Chen Mo followed his instruction.

Because he was afraid that the empress would be really angry, Chen Mo went as quickly as possible.

When he came to the inner hall, Wang Ying actually allowed him to go directly into the inner hall.

When he saw Empress Xiao, Chen Mo finally knew why he had such a dream.

The so-called what you think in the day translates to what you dream at night.

Although Chen Mo had never seen the empress in person, the original person had!

So it was reasonable to have such fantasies in his dream.

Now that Chen Mo had seen her, he also understood why.

In front of the dressing table, an elegant and graceful beauty sat there. She had simple but exquisite-looking bangs and with her slender arm exposed out from the robe, it was wrapped by a fine jade bracelet. Upon closer examination, her skin was more fine than the jade bracelet.

A pair of watery and bright eyes was so beautiful that it was hard to describe. From her face, she looked very young, but her tender body exuded a mature charm.

She pursed her tender lips slightly.

Every blink of hers was full of charm and beauty.

No one would have imagined that this stunning beauty was actually the mother of two children.

Chen Mo subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

He thought, I actually have the potential to be a tyrant (1).

He suppressed the restlessness in his mind, Chen Mo didn't dare to look at her any longer. After he placed the hot water on the desk, he wanted to bow and leave respectfully, but was stopped by the empress.

Little Hong, are you feeling better now? Xiao Yunxi asked with a little concern in her voice.

Chen Mo, Wang Ying and Cai'er were all shocked.

The empress actually cared about a little eunuch.

Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that there is a little secret between the original person and the empress?

Chen Mo said respectfully, Thank you for your concern, and thanks to your gracious blessing, the sickness in me has been cured.

That's good, the pastries you made for me some time ago were delicious, and I'm craving them. It just happened that Fu Jin and Chong'er are coming in the morning, so you can make some more, Xiao Yunxi said.

Chen Mo blanked out.

His brain buzzed.

How could he know what kind of cake the original person made.

It's over, GG.

What's wrong? Is there a problem? When Xiao Yunzi saw

that Chen Mo didn't answer, she frowned slightly.

(1) Likely a reference to Cao Cao, one of the rulers of the Three

Kingdoms. He was known to be a tyrant, but also someone who loved married women.
