Chapitre 168: Conference meeting part 1
It was almost daytime when Rose and I reached the conference hall meeting. But before we went to the conference meeting Rose forced me to wear a veil to hide my face, she said that it was necessary for my own good. Sendra didn't join us because the meeting didn't have to do anything for her, She preferred to wait for me until the meeting ended.
Mother Sophia has gone to oversee the royal dragon guards in the kingdom, she received information that foreign worriers had stepped into the city with ill intentions. She didn't waste any time and went out to see what they were up to.
When I stepped inside the conference hall meeting with Rose holding my hand tightly while Luna stood behind me, I brought her with me because she was smart in understanding situations and gave me effective and efficient solutions. If she could help me then it would be great in the conference meeting.
I saw 20 people sitting in row 10 on each side and one big thorn situated in last for Rose as the royal guards silently observed the surroundings.
"Your greeting, long live your majesty!"
The nobles and officials kneel in Rose's presence. Rose walked towards her throne ignoring others. The nobles and officials didn't raise their heads but they knew that the Empress was followed by two peoples.
When Rose saw that there was only one set for her, she looked at the royal guard and said "Bring a luxurious chair for my dear, I won't set or start until the chair arrives.
"As you wish, Your Majesty" The guard nodded without showing any reluctance and went out to get a chair.
The rest of the people left shocked when they listened I was present there especially women, who lost their urge to see me despite Rose beheading them for disobeying them.
"The Emperor is here I'm so lucky that I attended today's meeting! Wait... He is wearing a veil... Why... Why... I can't see his face... This is unacceptable, I'm so close to him but his cute face is hidden from my vision... Damn, you Empress!"
"I want to see his face and talk with him for hours Emperor, please look at me!"
"He is standing with Empress and... Who is that elf girl clinging to his precious fragile body, get away from him you horney girl"
"That girl is so close to him, is she an acquaintance of the Emperor? However she is sticking him so close, why Empress isn't doing anything to that bastarded girl? She is clearly touching the Emperor's butt!"
The noblewomen curse inwardly seeing Luna so close to me, their hearts fired up in envy and desire to kill her rising every second.
"Empress, I have brought the chair" The guard brought a luxurious chair and put it beside Rose's throne.
Luna looked at me and spoke in my ears "Onii-chan please you set, don't worry about me. I will be fine standing beside you"
"Okay, I as you wish" I spoke and took a set with Rose.
"You all can take a set and start today's meeting" Rose nonchalantly spoke as she sighed in laziness. I looked at the huge table in front of me there was a prospectus, water glass, and pen for each 20 officials and one for Rose. Luna proceeds her hand to pick one prospectus to examine the accounts.
"My name is Dramos Juei, I'm an economist and finance minister, I was appointed to this position after the old minister was betrayed. I oath that my loyalty towards the Empress and the Emperor would be eternal. I would like to brief the accounts left by Gamon and his son Kamon, The harvesting sector is overflowed with weed, rice, sugarcane, and other basic essentials. The government's infrastructure is underway to finish before the given time and some others are still under construction. The tax collection is collected in advance in 40% extra interest!" A nobleman wakes from his seat holding some prospectus and explains that taxes and expenditures have implications in private and government sectors.
As the man explained I noticed something that I hadn't realized before 20 out of 14 were women while the rest of them were men in this meeting.
Men were all looking into the prospectus, they didn't much care about my presence while all women gazed at me and some openly lusting and massaging their lower lips.
"Why am I feeling wired? My face is hidden but I can see these dragon women were hungry to touch my body and stroke my face.
"Stop right there!"
A sudden noise disrupted the nobleman's explanation and the officials looked toward the sources of this sound. I turn my face to see Luna looking into the prospectus with narrow eyes as if she found something interesting. Rose also stared at her slightly and waited for what she would say.
The noblewomen smile broadly and manically in thought that Luna is going to embarrass herself.
"This idiot elf! She shouldn't jump into politics, such a pity that she would embarrass herself. She deserves it, she has gone so close to the Emperor that she shouldn't have done in her entire life"
"This idiot little elf has invited death for herself, She should have become a slave or consumed instead of drooling after the Emperor" The noblewomen couldn't help but cry in amazement.
The nobleman was angered when he saw his speech was interrupted by a little elf girl "You elf! Why did you cut me between my explanations? Do you have any idea what happens when an inferior and uninvited guest disturbs an official in his work? You will be dead but I can reassure you live if you become my slave and serve me in bed"
The man spoke and looked at Luna's figures with a lustful gaze. I couldn't accept someone trying to force my girls to sleep with him in front of me. I was about to kick his ass but Luna stopped me before I could touch his ass.
"I have an objection against your prospectus"
"Objection against my prospectus? Who do you think you are objecting to me, I've been doing financing for over two centuries and advising the Empress for more than 50 years, think before you speak you degenerate elf" The burst into anger at Luna and kept throwing words at her. His voice was so loud that Luna had to cover her ears from the noise. I didn't hold myself anymore and looked at the nobleman.
"You need to keep your voice low, even though she is talking to you politely but you are acting arrogant" I spoke making the entire conference hall stunned, no one expected me to shield Luna as they thought I only came here to make a short appearance as an Emperor. The nobleman stares at me blindly in shock.
"Emperor... that elf disrespected me. I can't tolerant this humiliation... please—"
I didn't let him complete his sentence and cut him off "If I hear any loud noise or hostility toward Luna I will make sure that Rose won't leave you alive beside there are so many other finance ministers who can take your job, do you understand?"
The nobleman fears that his job will be lost only for talking arrogantly in the conference hall he steps back and nods his head.
