Bab 298: Growing Five Empires (2)

"Uh, I still have so much work to do… Yin, are the emperors here?" I ask the shadow towards the corner of the bathing room. 

"Yes," She replies. 

"Good," 

… 

The night quickly passed, but I had to get up extremely early in the morning, so I had enough time to finish everything that I needed to do. 

"*yawn*... Okay… All of you bastards need to get your shit together and set away some of your pride for just a second. I don't want my empires dying just because the rulers are too prideful to work with others," 

I've never seen empires cooperating to such an extent in my previous life. 

It was all just them trading… but I want more than that. 

I want them to benefit from each other like a self-sucking circle… what was it called… uh… ouroboros? The self-eating snake, I think.
