Yunyu was floating around the palace with Pupa, searching for that right person to show an apparition. But none of them was suitable enough because none of them actually had any influence on Huang Shu.

Even Imperial Concubine Xi and Empress Dowager had almost zero influence on Huang Shu, which was quite surprising for Yunyu because he thought that Huang Shu loved Concubine Xi, knowing she was the mother of his son.

[Ehh'¦ it's quite strange. I really thought that Huang Shu was in love with Concubine Xi. I mean, he banished me for 'poisoning' Concubine Xi's son, right?]

[Pupa: I don't think he has anyone except you and his own pride that he loved.]

[Can I do the creepy ghost thing by scaring Concubine Xi?]

[Pupa: Then you'll waste your ten second chance of apparition.]

[Aish! I want to be that scary ghost ah!]

On the sixth day after his death, Bai Yunyu saw Concubine Xi suddenly came to his palace, the Palace of Serene Harmony. She wore a bright yellow dress, not showing any kind of grieving or whatsoever after Bai Yunyu's death.

The guards outside stopped her from entering, "Imperial Concubine Xi, this palace is prohibited for entry. His Majesty is still mourning over the late Empress' death."

Concubine Xi scoffed and replied, "I am the mother of Crown Prince Huang Guowei. What qualifications do you have to stop me from seeing my husband?"

The guards look at each other and finally allowed Concubine Xi to enter the Palace of Serene Harmony. She strutted with her servants to Yunyu's room to meet the grieving Emperor Xianglian.

When the door was opened, Concubine Xi saw the mighty Golden Emperor was sitting beside the glass case of Bai Yunyu, the dead Empress.

Truthfully, she found this disgusting. How could someone as mighty and the Emperor become so deranged just because of an infertile ger's death? While he has her, the real woman who gave birth to his son.

It had been six days since Empress Xiuying's death, and Emperor Xianliang was still grieving. He barely slept, barely eat, and he barely does his duty as the Emperor. As if he had forgotten about everything as half of his heart had left him.

Emperor Xianliang was now reading a book, but he refused to read any report from the minister because he said that he wanted to read it with the Empress once the Empress had been awakened from his deep slumber.

Concubine Xi strutted to the Emperor and bowed her head gently, "Your Majesty, I am here to visit you and check on your condition."

Emperor Xianliang looked up, and when he saw Concubine Xi, all he did was replied with a hum and continued reading while caressed the glass case.

Concubine Xi saw how empty the Emperor's eyes were. It was void of any willpower, and it crept her so much. Because she was used to seeing the vigorous, handsome, and mighty Emperor. Not this wimp who kept on weeping over an infertile ger's death.

"Your Majesty, I've heard complaints from the ministers that you've abandoning morning court for almost a week already. Your Majesty, the Empire depends on you, you're the Golden Emperor that leads them all. I believe you should return to your duty as the Emperor before something terrible happens. There is no use of grieving over the dead for too long."

Emperor Xianglian looked up again, but this time, there was hostility in his gaze, "Zhen doesn't need your opinion. Zhen's wife is just sleeping right now. Leave before he had a wrong idea about us."

"Wrong idea?!" Concubine Xi was offended by such words. She expected Emperor Xianglian to take her as the new Empress after Bai Yunyu's death, especially since she came from a noble family, unlike Bai Yunyu.

"What do you mean wrong idea, Your Majesty? I am also a member of your harem! I'm the mother of your first son, Huang Guowei! You should be continuing your duty and make me the new Empress! Why would you grief over an infertile ger! He cannot even give you a child and tried to poison my son!"

CRACK!

Concubine Xi zipped her mouth immediately when she saw the Emperor punched the wall behind him until it left a crack.

Emperor Xianliang glared at Concubine Xi. He stood up and walked towards her direction with a menacing aura around him. His empty eyes finally sparked with anger.

Concubine Xi's leg felt soft. She retreated few steps back as the Emperor kept advancing towards her, "Y'”Your Majesty, this Concubine misspoke. I didn't mean it in a bad way'¦"

"How dare you insulting my wife. He is not dead, and after he has awakened from his sleep, I will call the best healer to make him fertile again. You have no place here, let alone replacing him as the Empress."

"And I refuse to do this shitty duty of an Emperor without my Empress. I will wait for him!" Emperor Xianliang yelled.

"B'”But, Your Majesty, you did your duty just fine when that man, Bai Yunyu, was banished'”"

"SILENCE!" Emperor Xianliang shouted. He cracked his knuckles, unable to accept that his beloved wife had died.

"Leave now before I snapped your neck in half'¦"please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Y'”Your Majesty, this is'”"

pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ "LEAVE!" with that second hostile shout, Concubine Xi readily escaped from the room as quick as possible. Because she knew there was no saving in this. She thought Emperor Xianliang already moved on from Bai Yunyu, but who knew his death only triggered the worst thing possible.

Emperor Xianliang was too heartbroken to rule in a clear mind.

[Ehhh'¦ Chotto Matte, is this real? Am I the reason why Huang Shu can't rule anymore, which led to the downfall of his reign?]

[Pupa:'¦ I knew it from the beginning. But I keep my silence because I'm afraid it'd change the story. Besides, you're just too stupid to realize that your guilt tripping no Jutsu will be highly effective here.]

[Ehh'¦] Yunyu didn't know what to say after he found out about this. Honestly, he did expect Huang Shu to feel guilt and saddened. But he didn't realize the full extent of how the mighty Emperor Xianliang was spiralling down into madness and depression after his wife's death.

[Yet'¦ he banished me, ignored me, and tortured me with a slow death of starvation and heartbroken.]

[I don't understand his way of thinking, really'¦]

Ghost Yunyu approached Huang Shu, who sat on his chair beside Bai Yunyu's corpse again. He caressed the glass case and said, "Don't listen to that woman. You're not infertile. We will find a good healer for you, okay?"

[Yeah, dude, my cinnabar mole has disappeared. I'm not a ger anymore. I'm literally just a regular man'”]

[Pupa: with a small dick]

[Can you not mention that every time!!]

[Pupa: What? It's true.]

**

"Bai Yunyu, when will you wake up? I'm getting worried here. Don't sleep for too long, okay? I miss you so much'¦"

[You didn't miss me when you banished me in that Cold Palace.]

"Bai Yunyu, don't you feel pity for me? My body is too tired waiting for you, but I don't want to miss you in case you woke up someday."

[You didn't pity me when you gave me food that could barely fill me every day until I got malnourished'¦]

"Yunyu, do you hate me? Is that why you won't wake up?"

[I'¦ I do hate you, Huang Shu'¦]

[I hate you as much as I love you. I want you to feel pain and torture as much as I want you to be the glorious Emperor that is worshipped by everyone.]

[Huang Shu, I don't think you understand how cruel you were. And I don't think you know how important I am in your life. That's why you can discard me so easily'¦]

Ghost Yunyu sighed and flew away from the Palace of Serene Harmony. Pupa followed him and asked,

[Pupa: Where do you want to go?]

[I need to clear my head first. Staying with Huang Shu for too long only makes me depressed and confused. So I need to find something that could give me refreshment.]

[Pupa: Refreshment? Where will you find that?]

Ghost Yunyu glanced at Pupa, and he grinned perversely,

[I know just the right place. Nyehe'”]

[Pupa: Oh no. I have a terrible feeling about this.]

[Nyehehehehehe.]
