14 Chapter 14

That guy was simply a bastard, even asleep! But who knew, with his level of martial arts and qigong, he was already awake when she touched his hand and deliberately hug her like that to see her struggle!

Early the next morning, Tianxiao had woke up very early to go to court. He unwillingly left the bed, half an hour after waking up and after putting on his robes, he kissed Meiyi's forehead and went to see those old ministers. Tianxiao personally hated to go to court, but it was his duty as the emperor to listen to the difficulties the country is facing and solve them. He is not particularly against working, but the way his ministers fight was really a pain for him.

He entered the huge hall and was instantly greeted by the hundreds of ministers present, each dressed in their official uniform and holding their 3 inches wide official tablets. Tianxiao often found it funny the way they had to hold onto those sticks and fight with their opposing party. If it was not required to hold it with both hands, those ministers would probably point it at others in fury or sometimes might throw it to show their disapproval.

Tianxiao was already missing his wife and was quite impatient today to finish with those ministers, Unfortunately for him, two old bastards had to fight over whether to implement more severe laws concerning taxation or to change the taxation rate, so that every citizen would be able to afford.

Minister A : What would a change in taxation do except bring less revenue for future crises? I disagree! It's best to implement more severe tax and punish those tax invaders!

Minister B : You think severe laws will help? Humph! You are too old now, my friend! You think those who cannot afford much would sacrifice their life just to pay taxes because they will get beaten? Life or a few beatings, even dumb people knows what to choose!

Minister A: You are the old one mate! Humph! What life and death! Did you not see how many rich merchants evade taxes? I bet you just want to pay less taxes yourself and you are a tax evader yourself!

Minister B: Libel! Pure libel! Your majesty!

Minister A: Your majesty!

Feng Tianxiao: Shut... huhum.. We shall discuss it another time, for now, we will...

Minister C: Your majesty, what will we do about the drought in the northeast? Farmers are already expressing their anger at us and demands us to solve the problem.

FengTianxiao was already bored to listen to all those problems and decided to ask all the ministers to write down their issues and report them later as he could not concentrate on these issue while his mind was filled with his wife on his bed. "God, i miss my sweet wife" Feng Tianxiao whispered before rushing back to his palace.

EARLIER

Meiyi has just woken up and felt soreness in her whole body. She made great effort to get out of bed, but she fell on her knees as soon as she got up. She was really wondering what kind of inhumane energy he had to roll in bed for the whole night and not get tired even after. She could guess that Lan Meiyi, the real owner of this body might have died due to fatigue as she had woken up in this world, all tired like so. Meiyi could imagine how hard it might have been for Lan Meiyi to lose her virginity to a beast like that and moreover, she did not only lose her first time that night, but most probably her 10th time as well.

Meiyi shivered at the thought that the gorgeous emperor might have taken a liking to her and might ask her every night. This thought made her want to leave this palace more, but unlike the last 2 times, she had to carefully plan her way out, or else, she might as well be caught before even starting again.

In her head, Meiyi listed out the things she need to escape. The first thing she needed was most probably a map of the whole palace, like that, she would take the shortest and fastest route out. Then she would need a few pieces of clothes, but not much as she could buy more, once she earns money. Next she needed money and as the empress, she did have quite a lot, but to not make others suspicious, she could not take much and decided to take mostly jewelries since all of them might have cost a fortune.

However, an even more brilliant idea came to her mind and she shouted"Eureka!"

At that moment, the emperor barged in with a question mark on his head:'HurayKa? what is that?'
