"This is the only advantages to be slaves in official household. You can accidentally hear some news. Not only that, since the Emperor open the gate easily for outside people, many strangers come here from different nation and settled. Those people who brought the idea of harem. Some upper high officials in the capital city have adopted that idea. Now, there are many brothel open and they coerced women to be their concubine"

"If the culture doesn't allow to takes more than one woman as wife, why they can force women to be their concubine?"

"The culture wasn't written on the stone. It never has been official. So there are no rules for this matter. As for women, if they are from upper social status, of course they can refuse it. However, initially the official has higher status in Azura and some women are come from other kingdom who had settled, that their former kingdom had adopted harem culture"

"Social status? Are the Official status one level below the imperial family?"
"No. they are the Fourth class" He cast a glance towards Senja who listen attentively two steps away from him. "You know nothing about this class's status?"

Senja shook her head. And lamented softly "I have an amnesia, remember…?" This word of 'amnesia' became common word to be Senja excuses.

"Oke. I will explain it. So the first class of course the imperial family. They are who has closer bloodline with The Emperor held the higher status in this Nation.

Second is the Warrior. They were the higher up in the military or headsman from respected clan. Like elder Dam from black sword clan.

Third is physician, many people wanted to be physician, however, it very difficult to be the renowned one. Even if it is only one of your family members who is physician but all of your family can brag about that.

Fourth are the officials. From minister down to Village head for their respected area

Fifth are the traders, entrepreneurs and artist for entertaining an event. And the last was slave. We are on the bottom of society"

Senja nodded her head trying to digest all the information she got.

"Actually there is one more class and it class didn't take any of the classify class"
"What is that?"
"It distinctive class"
"What kind of person inside this class?"
"Hmm… I am not quite sure about that because it has been disappeared long time ago"
"Disappeared? What happen?"
"This class is not classified into anything. The members were some people that were able to did something out of ordinary people can imagine"
"What you mean?"
"They are mind controller" He whispered with caution.

Huh ?

"You mean hypnotize?" Senja straighten up her back.
"Kind of but, they said it was more than hypnotize. These people from this distinctive class are able to control your mind. History said, there was a time when 10 people of this special ability class united they could take down an entire nation by their own"

"And then what happen to them?" 

"They are vanished 62 years ago. Some people said every nation chased them down to obtain them as weapon in war but because they were very strong all of them were killed to avoided catastrophe in the future"

Senja gulped hard, it seemed she couldn't carelessly used her hypnotize in the future to avoid any harm to herself.

Suddenly with terrifying look, Yoda stared at her intensely.
"You did it…" His voice trembled.
"What?"
"You used hypnotized to Zodasian's soldier that night when he stabbed me"
"No" She lied automatically.
"Yes you did" He insisted.

She stared back to Yoda, hesitating to tell him the truth.

However, seeing Senja stared at him subconsciously he closed his eyes with both of his hands.
"Don't look at me!"

Late At Night-

"Cancel your engagement with my stepsister and marry me" Senja said brazenly.

Xiao Tianyou looked at the little girl in front of him with amusement, "But, why should I marry you?"

Senja tilted her head to one side and smirked coquettishly, "Because I am smart and beautiful. Moreover, I know how to find Gong Xu"

"Why do you think I care about this Gong Xu guy?" He asked with a cold voice.

"Of course, you care! He was the one who killed your wife."

Xiao Tianyou glared at her with menacing eyes. His thin lips shut tight before he spoke in a low and hoarse voice. "Are you threatening me?!"

"I wouldn't dare!" She feigned fear and continued, "Let’s call this ‘relationship with benefit’."

*** 

She was a cunning and haughty professional thief from modern era. Together with her three brothers, she stole whatever ‘requested’. However, Senja was sent back to ancient time by an elderly woman to find someone named Yun. Only by finding him could she come back to her era. 

Once she arrived there, people from the kingdom’s army claiming that she was a daughter of a formidable clan of spies who had been kidnapped for a year.

*How could that be??*

She was sure that she hadn't occupied someone else’s body, so how could she have become a brilliant divine girl with virtuous conduct and noble demeanor, who had also saved the country?

*Hmm...*

Resolve this by feigning amnesia then... hee-hee...

So, she can fake a memory loss, but can she keep up to HER reputation?! Especially since their personalities are poles apart! 

Then there’s the overprotective grandfather of hers who has forbidden her from stepping out of the manor lest she be kidnapped again! 

Grr..………How can she start looking for this Yun guy if she can't go outside?

There’s just one way! 

Marry the military commander a.k.a, the Second Prince, Xiao Tianyou.

Argh!!!…….. he is the fiancé of her vicious stepsister!!

*A.W.E.S.O.M.E. Everything is going against me!*

**THE STORY OF DUSK
**The Love of a Lycan

Zhao Fu did not plan to bring back all of these people and Cities to Great Qin, and he instead kept them at the Northern Continent. On one hand, they could defend and manage the Northern Continent, and on the other hand, Great Qin would be able to quickly send reinforcements to the Dark Demon world's Southern Continent if necessary.
After dealing with the Northern Continent, Great Qin once again sank into a time of peace, and the world became calm again. Now, as long as Great Qin did not make any trouble, the world would continue on like this.
Zhao Fu returned to Great Qin, and Li Si told Zhao Fu that it was time to confer titles on more Concubines. They had brought back 18,000 women with Phoenix Qi from the Northern Continent, and they were from all sorts of races. The Northern Continent had been colonized quite early on, and there were not many indigenous people remaining.
In the recent centuries, all sorts of people had moved there, making it quite prosperous. The Heaven Awaken World and inherited this trait, so people of all sorts of races were spawned there.
Zhao Fu had never expected them to bring back so many women, and he was quite shocked at this figure. He asked, "Do all of those women really have Phoenix Qi?"
Li Si gave a mysterious smile before replying, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. They all have Phoenix Qi. The Northern Continent is where Fate has been gathering in recent times, and its geography and culture are quite special, which is why there are so many people.
"Most of the women within the harem are of Asian descent. However, Your Majesty is going to be the ruler of the world, so Your Majesty naturally cannot only have Asian women in the harem. Otherwise, the people will think that Your Majesty despises westerners and is biased towards Asians, resulting in conflict among the people.
"As such, this subordinate ordered for all women with Phoenix Qi to be brought back. There are all sorts of them, and they come from all walks of life. They can fulfil any of Your Majesty's desires. This subordinate has also been researching into modern culture and have prepared some clothes as well as…"
Before Li Si could finish, Zhao Fu cut him off because he was simply doing too much, making all sorts of preparations. Zhao Fu felt quite embarrassed, and he felt that he was not that licentious.
Li Si smiled as he replied, "Your Majesty is not licentious but romantic. As an Emperor, particularly of an entire world, it is only natural to be like this. This subordinate feels that Your Majesty has held back too much and does not have enough Concubines."
After hearing this, Zhao Fu somewhat wanted to hit Li Si. However, given how loyal and dedicated Li Si was, he went against it.
"Write the Imperial Edicts for Us; We will not be going and will leave you in charge of this. In the future, there's no need to bring women with not much Phoenix Qi back to Great Qin. Just let them go," Zhao Fu said.
Li Si felt quite startled and had never expected Zhao Fu to say this. He thought about it before saying, "Your Majesty, Great Qin needs Phoenix Qi, and Phoenix Qi can give Great Qin various benefits. It can cause Great Qin's Fate to grow and become more refined.
"Even though many of them cannot provide much Phoenix Qi, gathered together, it is still quite a lot. Moreover, for those women to join Great Qin's harem, it is their fortune. Great Qin can give them various benefits, and most of them came voluntarily.
"To be able to enter Great Qin's harem and serve Your Majesty is something that countless women can only dream of. Ordinary women do not have any Phoenix Qi, so they have no hope of entering Great Qin's harem."
Zhao Fu did not know how to reply, so he could only say, "We understand, but there are simply too many of them. If it continues like this, Our harem will have too many people."
Seeing that Zhao Fu had made up his mind, Li Si did not keep going. In actuality, he wanted to make the harem many times bigger, but since the Emperor did not want to do this, he naturally did not keep on pushing in order to not enrage him.
Li Si nodded, showing that he understood, and he smiled as he handed over Imperial Edicts. Zhao Fu took out the Great Qin Seal and stamped them, causing them to receive the recognition of Great Qin's Fate.
Following this, Li Si took the Imperial Edicts and left, while Zhao Fu remained within the hall and read through various memorials to understand what was happening in different places.
The human world was dozens of times bigger than in the real world, and even though Great Qin had not yet unified the entire world, it occupied three Continents. This was already many times bigger than the original earth, and there were millions of memorials submitted every day.
It was impossible for Zhao Fu to read through all of them, so all of the memorials actually delivered to Zhao Fu were about important matters while the less important ones were handled by Ministers.
Boom!
Suddenly, an explosion sounded out as an enormous pillar of light shot up into the sky, smashing into it. An aura spread out from the top of the pillar, forming a golden layer of clouds, and the entire world seemed to be dyed gold.
"Skreeee!!" A massive Phoenix's cry sounded out as the Emperor Phoenix Statue turned into a golden phoenix and flew in the sky, elegantly circling around the pillar a few times and giving off a golden light. It looked incredibly beautiful as it entered the top of the pillar.
Boom!
Another explosion rang out as a massive aura spread out from the sky. Boundless golden light pierced through the clouds, covering all of Great Qin's territory, and the heavens and earth seemed to tremble.
Countless black traces of Fate floated out as some of it dissipated, but the remainder became even purer and contained a trace of gold.
Because Great Qin had only just conquered the Northern Continent, the Fate from there was not very stable and roiled like a violent ocean. However, as the golden light shined on it, the ocean of Fate gradually calmed down.
In the Northern Continent, the unrest and terror of Great Qin's new residents gradually calmed under the effects of the golden light.
As the golden light shined on all of Great Qin's residents, everyone felt a feeling of warmth from within their bodies, making them feel quite comfortable. Some sicknesses and pains slowly healed, and everyone felt their strength increase.
These abnormal signs caused changes in the heavens and earth, and the people in the other Continents saw a golden sun rise up from the Midland Continent, giving off a brilliant golden light.
The women who had been made Concubines were covered with a golden glow, and a powerful energy seemed to enter their bodies, causing them to gradually go through changes. Their skin became whiter and softer, and they began to look younger and filled with life.
Zhao Fu looked at the golden phoenix in the sky, which was now 6,000 or so meters wide. It gave off a piercing golden light, making it look like a sun.
At the same time, Zhao Fu felt a massive amount of power flow into his body. The phoenix crystal within his body absorbed that power and continuously grew larger. Zhao Fu also felt his body go through changes; his constitution, strength, and mind were all enhanced.
Within his body, the golden dragon laughed as it said, "Congratulations, your Emperor Phoenix Statue can be counted as half a Clan Armament now. Because it is quite special, it will be even more powerful than ordinary Clan Armaments."
Hearing this, Zhao Fu lightly laughed and realized that Li Si had just gone and conferred titles on all of the women, resulting in these abnormal signs.
After hearing the golden dragon's explanation and seeing the Emperor Phoenix Statue's evolution, Zhao Fu naturally felt quite happy.


“Ding! Soulbinding has been successfully completed; you will now head to the Heaven Awaken World.” After hearing this, Zhao Fu’s vision darkened as he fell to the ground.

With bleak prospects in the real world, Zhao Fu’s life is turned around when countless crystals fell from the sky one night, which people could use to enter an alternate, game-like world. After obtaining an ancient Chinese empire’s legacy, Zhao Fu uses his intellect and resourcefulness to develop his own empire from a tiny village. However, with enemies both in the real world and in the Heaven Awaken World, he must make brilliant decisions and use creative schemes to survive.

Even though James wanted to try to sit on the throne, but he held back his impulse as he was not the King yet, not officially. After another couple of minute to admire the throne room, he and Madison left.

They continued their tour in the vast Lannister Palace. As their tour was ongoing, the more shocked they became. The Imperial Garden with an array of fascinating flower, the Harem palace complex, and many more.

Yes, the Harem palace complex. As the founding King Zhang Yong was from  Tang Royal Family, he had many concubines on his arsenal. He built another palace complex separated from the main palace where all of his concubines lived.

The Harem practice continued generation by generation, and even Zhang Kui had seven concubines under his names. A pity all of his concubines already died and didn't leave any descendant. Even though Western culture heavily influenced the Kingdom of Lannister, but as the founding King was a Chinese people, the Chinese culture still dominated.

After 1 hour of their small tour, James and Madison decided to stop as they were already exhausted. They headed to the huge dining hall they were visited earlier and found it was already lively with people. All the people quickly give their salute when they saw James and Madison.

"His Highness, please sit. We already a special lunch for you and your sister arrival." A middle-aged man dressed in a butler suit said politely. 

James already knew this man as he was one of the people that picked him up from China. According to the introduction, his name was Oliver, and he was the chief butler of Lannister Royal Family. His family had served the Lannister Royal Family since King Zhang Yong era.

"Do you know where Zhou Huang and Joseph, Oliver ?" James said as he sat at the main seat.

"Prime Minister Zhou Huang busy with the daily affair of the Kingdom while I don't know where His Grace Duke Joseph is." Oliver answered politely.

James contemplated for a moment before he dismissed his thought to search for the two old men. Then he ate the sumptuous lunch prepared specially for today occasion. All kind of cuisine placed on the table, Chinese, Western, Middle-East, you say it.

Even though there were many foods placed on the table, but only James and Madison were eating them. After eating to their full, not even a quarter of the food was consumed. 

"Oliver, how do you deal with the leftover food ?" James asked Oliver, who stood not too far apart.

"We usually throw it away. Why you ask this, Your Highness?" Oliver asked.

James felt it was a terrible waste of food. Even though he was technically a Royal now, but he was just an ordinary person in essence. Even with the Emperor memory in his mind, but it still couldn't change who James was.

"In the future, don't throw all the food away. You can eat it if you want, or give it to all the guards and maids." James said as he wiped his mouth with a napkin. 

Oliver got a little bit surprised by James decision, but he quickly developed a good impression on James. 

"Your Highness, Her Highness, please let me show your living quarter." Oliver said.

James and Madison quickly followed Oliver, which led them into another palace complex outside the main palace. 

"Your Highness, this is the Crown Prince living quarter. You will be living here until the day of your coronation." Oliver said as they stopped at a 'mini' palace. 

Of course, the mini here was compared to the main palace. From James's point of view, this palace was almost as big the Buckingham Palace in London. 

"Her Highness, please follow me. Your living quarter is not far from here." Oliver said to Madison, who always hid behind James.

"Brother, I don't want to be separate with you." Madison said as she looked at James with her teary eyes.

James hesitated for a moment before he said, "You see, Oliver. My sister always lives with me since her childhood. Especially now we are in a foreign land, I can't bear to leave her alone. So I think she should live with me for now."

"But... She can't live with you, Your Highness. She must...." Before Oliver could finish his sentence, James stared at him with his sharp eyes.

"Who says she can't live with me ?" James asked sternly.

Oliver gulped his saliva as he felt James stare was too sharp, but he quickly replied, "It's the Kingdom rule. It stated the prince and princess couldn't live together unless it's a special circumstance." 

"Isn't this a special circumstance? Anyway, she lives with me for now." James overbearingly said. Joke, his sister Madison always lived with him since their parent died in the crash that year. She couldn't sleep properly if no one slept beside her at night. Maybe it was because their mother always slept with her since she was a baby.

Oliver couldn't say anything at this moment. But what could he do? He was just a butler, whereas James was the Crown Prince soon to be the King. So he could only let James and Madison and left to inform Zhang Kui about their situation.

James Zhang, a Chinese-British mix, found that his life changed dramatically. The Goddess of Luck seemingly took pity on his dull and ordinary life as he was suddenly got a cheat like system. 

"What?!! Do you tell me that my grandfather is actually a king and I'm his sole descendant?!!"

Since then, the whole world changed in an unknown direction. An unknown feudal monarchy country surfaced its face again on the face of Earth. 

See how James turned a backward, weak, and small country into the superpower that surpassed the United States.

This novel placed on the parallel world. If there was anything in this novel that was the same as our world, it was purely coincidental!!!

Also, if anyone feels familiar with the setting of this novel, it was because a Chinese story inspired this. But it was only the idea, not plagiarism!!! If you already read my fanfic before, then you know what I'm talking about.

The cover is not mine, I'm just taking it from google :)

Chapter 548 – Epilogueception (2) (Small Wives)
= Lilim =
Lilim's personality changed after she had regained her senses.
After being brainwashed and abused by the system, Lilim had lost most of her previous memory. The only thing in her mind was the love for Tong and her children.
She gave birth to her tenth cursed son, and she named it "Tong" since she loved him so much.
Lilim spent most of her time in her private dimension, enjoying her slow life with all the children, who evolved into fine dragons.
Tong visited her once a week, and he didn't forget to love her. Sometimes, Tong complained about other wives to Lilim that he was always bullied at home.
She listened to all Tong's blabbering and treasured every moment. As long as Tong was with her, she was happy.
Although Lilim didn't know why, her daughter, Lilith, always visited her and played with her. Lilim enjoyed Lilith's company and thought that this child just wanted motherly love.
One day, Lilith tried to tell Lilim that she was her mother, and Tong had tricked Lilim.
Lilim didn't believe it. She scolded Lilith for looking down on Tong.
From that day, Lilith stopped visiting Lilim. The child isolated herself and focused on cultivation.
Lilim could sense that Lilith began to cultivate, but Tong had restricted all children that they couldn't get immortal wings. She pestered Tong on his next visit that she wanted Lilith to be able to get immortal wings.
As Tong hadn't met Lilith before, he didn't know that Lilith was that [Lilith]. Thus, he adjusted his permission and allowed Lilith to get wings, but he posted some restrictions that she couldn't harm anyone without his permission.
For a thousand years, Lilim shut herself in her private dimension. Yet, Tong didn't fail to visit her once a week. He blessed her with a thousand more cursed children, which became the main population of Lilim's world as her children, Friday's children, and Medusa's children mated with each other, increasing their numbers rapidly.
Dong Bai and Diaochan also transferred some of their children here. Surprisingly, they were cursed children as well.
Medusa, Friday, and Lilim became good friends because of the child-rearing. They often visited Lilim when they had free time. By the time that they realized it, they had already become a big family.
Years went by, and a mysterious portal opened without Tong's permission. 
A being, who looked similar to her children, sent her an invitation.
The Heavenly Dragon Gathering Festival
…
…
…
= Cai Yong, Cai Wenji =
Cai Yong managed to retain his position as the Minister of Culture and Art throughout his two hundred years of service. He created so many works that people admired him and titled him as [The God of Art].
Cai Yong retired in 450 AD as he wanted to give his position to the later generations. Also, he had many children that entered the court, who wished to succeed in his ranks.
Tong bestowed him an official title as [The God of Art] as his nickname before his retirement. He enjoyed a large monthly pension for the next 500 years.
As for Cai Wenji, she remained a permanent beautiful concubine in Tong's harem. Her etiquette and her manner never changed throughout the long years even though Tong broke her on the bed once a month.
Cai Wenji managed to attain 6 angel wings, but she stopped cultivating since it wasn't necessary. Moreover, getting 8 wings might get her into trouble as many generals failed to get their 8th wing. She didn't want to be sent into a battlefield like Dong Bai, Liu Yang, Zhang Min, Zhang Ying, or Diaochan.
Tong also bestowed her [Self-Resurrection] system skill as a reward for her dedication.
Cai Wenji had five more children, three boys and two girls. She had a total of 7 children before she decided that she had enough. Tong respected that decision and controlled himself not to impregnate her again.
The four princesses married to Tong's elite generals, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Guan Yu, and Tian Yu. As for the boys, they didn't get the prince title until they got their 8th wing in the latter years.
One day, a multi-dimensional gate opened. Cai Yong and Cai Wenji didn't know why, but Tong sent them to another private world with Zhang Jiao and others.
Years later, Li Feihong brought them a piece of bad news.
…
…
…
= Du Shi =
Just like Cai Wenji, she remained as Tong's concubine regardless of the situation outside the palace.
Du Shi, too, managed to cultivate 6 wings. As an elite harem politician, she stopped getting another wing to maintain her status quo with other concubines as getting another pair meant war.
However, she was more fertile than Cai Wenji. Even after giving birth to her 20th child, she quickly recovered her health to her prime by spending a few lifespans. She didn't miss a night-visiting schedule since she was afraid of falling out of Tong's favor.
Du Shi's personally was outgoing. She wasn't afraid of partaking a sexual act with Tong in an open area. She was one of the few concubines that got more service schedules than others because of her outgoing traits, where others only got once a month.
Combining her once-a-month schedule with her outdoor plays, her time with Tong could rival that of Lilim or Liu Yang.
Du Shi even got nicknames from Sun Shangxiang as [Outdoor Girl] and [Exhibitionist], but she didn't know the hidden meaning behind the titles. 
Similar to others, Tong sent her and her family to Zhang Jiao's private dimension after an outsider appeared in their universe. Du Shi could never see Zhang Tong again afterward.
…
…
…
= Da Qiao / Xiao Qiao =
After the death of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, the two felt guilty that they betrayed them. Both concubines didn't care about their duties for years.
When Tong returned, they cried to Tong and begged him to let them go.
Tong brought them over to the battle sites near Jianye, where they killed Sun Ce. Tong personally made tombs for Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, and he even showed the location of their souls in the karmic river.
Tong consoled them that they didn't do anything wrong, and the counterpart life had nothing to do with their current self and their world.
Da Qiao was more understanding. She got better and returned to Tong's harem.
As for Xiao Qiao, she didn't believe in Tong for a while. But when she heard that her elder sister got pregnant, she returned to Tong's harem and demanded a child as well. Her comical behavior amused Tong and Da Qiao to the point that they arranged 3P schedules for Xiao Qiao instead of one-on-one sessions.
Unfortunately, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao got twice-a-month schedules, so their time with Tong was less than other girls. However, Tong always used the [Time Stop Play] to make up for the loss of time, which awakened a rare fetish in them.
Sun Quan found out about their strange behavior later on and went on scolding Tong for days for ruining his sisters-in-law's characters.
Both girls bore 4 daughters each. Afterward, they refused to bear another one.
The same as others, they stopped cultivating after they got their 6th wing. Tong even doubted that it was a culture of his harem that everyone refused to get their 7th wing.
These two also migrated to Zhang Jiao's dimension along with other concubines when the portal incident happened. They inquired about the outsider, but Tong never told them anything.
…
…
…
= Cao Xian, Cao Qinghe =
At first, the two concubines refused to service Tong after the death of Cao Cao. They tried to commit suicide, but other concubines stopped them in time.
After Tong cleaned Cao Cao's name, their mood got better. They visited Cao Cao's grave at Chibi and bid their farewell.
Still, Tong showed them Cao Cao's soul in the reincarnation river and promised them that he would reincarnate in a good family.
Cao Xian was smart. She demanded that Cao Cao had to be reincarnated as her and Tong's son, which shocked everyone.
Tong agreed nonetheless. After 10 years, Cao Xian carried the newborn Cao Cao in tears. She named him Cao Mengde instead of using his formal name.
Still, the reincarnated Cao Cao didn't have his previous life's memory. Cao Xian was sad that he couldn't remember her, but she was glad that she got her father back with her.
Cao Xian retired from the harem afterward, but Cao Qinghe stayed behind to ensure the survival of the Cao House and Xiahou House.
Because of the political marriage, Cao Qinghe wasn't enthusiastic about baby-making activities. Despite being warned by Du Shi and Cai Wenji many times, Cao Qinghe wasn't fond of lowering her status in bed.
As a result, Tong taught her the hard ways – The Curse Way, the Time Stop Way, and the Outdoor Way.
Cao Qinghe got broken like Liu Yang after a week. It took her 40 years before she recovered her temperament, but what she did during the time was beyond shameful.
Cao Qinghe never revealed her lazy attitude ever since. But she ended up getting the cultural once-a-month schedule, which was understood as the accursed common concubine.
Still, Cao Qinghe, Cao Xian, Cao Mengde, Cao Family, and Xiahou Family were ordered to migrate to Zhang Jiao's dimension on that certain day.
At first, Cao Qinghe didn't think much since Zhang Tong could overcome all adversary every time.
But she was wrong this time…
…
…
…
= Himiko, Queen of Japan =
Introduced by Gan Ning, Tong visited the Wo Kingdom after he settled with everything in his country.
Tong found out later that Himiko was a shaman queen, who acted as an emissary in various occasion. The one who actually ruled Japan was still Emperor Chuai of Yamato House.
Himiko welcomed Tong with open arms at first. But upon finding out that Tong possessed the administrative authority, she became wary of him.
Tong promised that he wouldn't use the system for the sake of his self-interest. It relieved Himiko a little, but she was still afraid of him.
Fortunately, Zuo Ci tagged along with Tong and ensured that this perverted pedophile wouldn't use that sort of trick since it would harm Tong's karma and the karma river. Hearing the sound promise, Himiko trusted Tong a bit more.
In the beginning, Tong visited Japan for the sake of establishing a profitable trade route.
But as he visited Japan on work trips often, Emperor Chuai grew wary of Tong and Himiko. The Japan Emperor envied the fame that Himiko had, so he ordered his men to capture and kill the priestess, blaming that she had betrayed the Yamato Kingdom.
As a cultivator, Himiko fled the country and begged Tong for a place to stay.
Miscommunication happened along the way as they spoke different languages. Tong mistook that Himiko wanted to enter his harem, so he took her in his chamber and snu-snued her to his heart content.
He found out from a translator later that Himiko only wanted to seek shelter.
Embarrassed and ashamed by his perverted action, Tong took responsibility and officially titled her as his new concubine.
As for Himiko, she was confused, angry, embarrassed, and ashamed. Yet, she was glad that he was a righteous emperor of a beautiful country, not some fat selfish emperor.
Unlike the others, she was a diligent cultivator who had similar feather wings as Sun Shangxiang. To respect Himiko's cultivation schedule, Tong put her on the once-a-month tier. She also refused to get pregnant since it might hinder her cultivation time.
Himiko was shocked when she found Tong's true soul. But since Tong was in the middle of redeeming himself, she accepted his past.
Himiko ended up getting 10 wings before the gate incident happened. Still, Tong forced her to enter Zhang Jiao's dimension along with the others.


Tong, a sinner who was suffering endless torment in hell because of his mistake he had done in his previous life, was giving other chance to redeem himself by the devil. 

All he had to do was participating in the redemption program, organized by the gods and the devils. He would be reincarnated as a random citizen of China during the end of the era of the East Han, and the prelude of the era of the Three Kingdoms. He would also retain his memory and a cheat skill that he designed for himself. 

Tong later found himself reincarnated as Zhang Tong, the son of the Yellow Turbans leader, Zhang Jiao. 

The problem didn't end with just the dilemma of the Yellow Turbans Army. It appeared that other than him, there were 99 others from the modern world that reincarnated into this timeline with him as well. 

This redemption program by the gods and devils didn't seem to be simple. There was definitely something fishy going on. 

Then the hidden agenda revealed itself to the reincarnators. Zhang Tong had to utilize everything by any means necessary to survive this ordeal.

"Do you need to follow me?" Haru asked. 

"Why not?" Runa squinted her eyes and said, "Do you think that we're going to bother you making a harem palace?" 

Kirari and Ririka didn't say anything in response, however, they agreed with Runa's words. 

"..." 

Haru sighed and said, "Just follow me then, it is also good that there won't be any students who will bother me." 

"Good." 

They walked together toward the traditional club culture and there were a lot of people who greeted him along the way, however, they moved away when they saw Kirari's cold gaze making them squirm in fear. 

"You're very popular," Kirari said. 

"....." 

Haru wasn't sure, but her tone didn't seem to be that happy.

Then they arrived at the location of the club and had to admit that this place was very beautiful. 

It was being separated by a bridge and located in the middle of the pool where there were a lot of beautiful koi fishes swimming around. 

The building was made of sturdy wood, and the design gave a feeling that they had entered a different timeline. 

This place was very quiet and also gave them a peaceful feeling. 

Haru had to admit that it was a very good spot to sleep. He knocked on the door of the clubroom and opened it. "Excuse me." 

Everyone inside the clubroom was attracted by this voice and turned back. 

"Kasugano-sam?" 

'Kasugano-sama?' Haru raised his eyebrow since he felt quite weird being called by this name. 

"Hey!" 

One of them suddenly said something to the girl who had called him 'Kasugano-sama'.

"Oops!" 

Everyone in the clubroom nodded in agreement, then they were quite surprised when they saw that the four new members of the student council suddenly came to their clubroom. 

"My name is Tsugumi Kuraiha, and I'm the Head of the Traditional Culture Research Club," Tsugumi said. 

Tsugumi is a fairly beautiful woman with long black hair that reaches her back and wears a red and white kimono with a flower pattern on it. She is also wearing glasses giving her a quiet and bookworm girl image. 

"It is quite rare for the new president to come here," Tsugumi said while looking at Ririka, however, kept glancing at Haru from time to time. 

"It isn't me who is searching for you, but him," Kirari said while looking at Haru. 

"Oh?" Tsugumi was quite surprised. 

"Yes, I want to gamble with you," Haru said.

"Really? You want to gamble with such a small club like us?" Tsugumi opened her eyes wide. She knew how good Haru was at gambling, but she didn't expect him to suddenly come and ask him for a duel. "Umm... We're pretty much a weak club, why are you aiming for us?" 

"...." 

Haru felt that he had bullied them somehow. "Just listen first, I'll bet my student council position then you bet your position as a Head of the Traditional Culture Research Club." 

"Umm..... why me? Aren't there a lot of stronger clubs?" Tsugumi was pretty much unconfident to have a match with Haru, especially when she heard about the amount of bet that he usually did had reached a billion numbers. She would be lying if she didn't have an interest in the position of the student council, however, if she lost then she was afraid that the money that she was going to pay was something that she couldn't pay in her lifetime. 

Then suddenly she entered an imaginary state where she imagined that she had become Haru's slave and she was being toyed with every day. She turned ruddy and raised her long sleeves to cover her mouth because she felt she had become very naughty. 'I'm so naughty.'

"Your club is very good, and the location is very quiet, I like this place," Haru said. 

"....." 

Tsugumi wasn't sure what to say at this moment. 

"Of course, if I have become the Head of the Traditional Culture Research Club then, I'll make this club become one of the major gambling dens in this school," Haru said. 

"........" 

"Umm... can I talk with my members first?" Tsugumi said. 

"Sure," Haru said. 

Tsugumi walked toward her members of the club, the number of members in this club wasn't much and there were only seven students including her. 

"Kasugano-san wants to become the head of this club, what do you think?" Tsugumi asked. 

"Isn't that good? I can see him every time then!" 

One of them suddenly agreed without hesitation. 

"......" 

They were speechless at her words, but they didn't deny it since it was good, however, they were more clear-headed. 

"After he has become the head of the club, what is he going to do?" 

They liked this club since it had a very beautiful building and a very quiet atmosphere making them relaxed in this crazy school. 

If Haru really became the Head of this club then they wouldn't mind, however, they were afraid of being forced to resign from this club. 

"Umm.... "He has said that he is going to turn this club into one of the major dens in this school," Tsugumi said. 

"......" 

"What are you waiting for? Just agree with it!" 

They also nodded when they heard it. They knew what was important in this school was the ability to not become housepets in this school. If Haru could make this club into one of the major gambling dens, then they would agree without hesitation since it meant that they would be protected in this school without worry to become a house pet in this school. 

"I'll accept his proposal," Tsugumi said.

They nodded at the same time. 

---

Haru was waiting for a while for the members of the Traditional Culture Research Club to discuss with each other while looking at the koi fishes that were swimming in the pool below the building. 

"Ano, Kasugano-san," Tsugumi said. 

"Yes?" Haru turned and looked at Tsugumi. "What's your decision?" 

"Yes, we agree," Tsugumi said. 

"Agree? Then, what kind of gamble do you want to do?" Haru asked. 

"No, no, I mean we agree to make you the Head of the Traditional Culture Research Club," Tsugumi said. 

"......." 

Haru was speechless and didn't think that it would be very easy for him to become the Head of this club.

Maybe I'll full of energy to write your favorite fanfic.

Aster let Kamryn rest on the bed while he headed for the showers to clean himself up. He wanted to continue his plays with her on the bath but she was on an emotional roller coaster for the day.

She came ringing the bell with her guards and met him. Her arrogance due to her upbringing, distraught from her guard's defeat, despair from comparing her talent with him, hope from seeing Garth, defeat from seeing her secret card being battered into a bird, mental distress from having her soul attacked, viciousness by tricking him into her trap, hate from having her plans continuously file by him, love from the Hate Reversal effect, pleasure from having sex with him, guilt from not informing him of the second trap, happiness from having overcome all those tribulations, and acceptance from finding a lover inside her enemy.

Aster was a bit quick with his bath because he is a man. Men take baths through simple soaping and washing dirt with relaxing water. Women's time in the bath is exponential than that of men's, it is a great mystery for all men regarding what makes women extend their time in the washroom to be quite long.

It is not a general way of things though because germaphobes and exceptions always break the rule. Maybe it is reverse in other regions and such time in the bath might not have any difference at all, regardless of sex and gender. Some people may not just take a bath at all.

'Thinking about baths really makes me realize that people's thoughts wander in unknown territories if they are bored.' He said while waiting for Kamryn to wake up. He really thought that she would be made some sort of slave but here they are, she sleeps soundly while he waits like the compassionate lover he should be.

'System, are there any options other than conquering them and the women will fall in love with me?' To ease his inquiries, the system answered. "Host, whatever the case, they are still your harem member. It all depends on how you treat them and how they interact with you."

'Yep. I get that but conquering them somehow makes me love them as well.' He was sure of himself that he grew cold-hearted and not knowing of love. Yet, situations like meeting the triplets and Kamryn just changed him into some sort of romantic. 'Shouldn't a harem be about benefits and connections? Like how generals and kings marry off their daughters to an emperor for empowering each other. The emperor would only find members of his harem as potential carriers of his offspring and to ensure the continuation of the imperial bloodline.'

"Host, the answer boils down to how you develop your harem. You could be a generic emperor that creates harem for his empire, you could be the talented genius that naturally draws women towards you and loves you well, you could be a douchebag whose harem only exists as a list of women you have sex with but eventually leave them in the morning, you could be a person that trains slaves who would go by the principle life of an S and an M." Aster really thought that the system would stop there but it still continued. "You could also be the loyalist who has only one harem member for life, you could be the fake loyalist who actually forms mistresses behind his wife's back, and you could be one that follows his weird fetishes when forming a harem."

'System, your definition of a harem is quite broad that any form of relationship is actually a harem. Even the culture of monogamy is actually a single-membered harem.' He could only shake his head in exasperation. 'But strangely enough, I get what you're trying to say. A harem and how I interact with them depends entirely on me. I could be a tyrant, a romantic, a douchebag, a pervert, a hypocrite, a control-freak, and all the other known descriptions there.'

His words made sense and also did not make sense for him. 'I could be the benevolent lover to the triplets and Kamryn while I could also be a cold-hearted, cruel guy. Whatever the case, they are my harem members and no other fact could change that.'

Aster was really just rambling at this point to pass the time. He even asked the system of highly existential and philosophical questions like 'can somebody know everything' and 'what is the purpose of life.'

The system would only reply. "Host, this system is not greatly omnipotent to answer the question. Even the creator, who created me and this world does not know the answer because he has gotten low grades on those subjects. If you think about it, things are pretty illogical in this world that nothing is absolute. The true answer to all unanswered questions is bound to be only opinions because the evidence that supports the answer may not be right at all."

Aster somehow felt that the system and its computerized answers are just paraphrasing the popular philosophical quote that 'I know that I know nothing.'

Time passed and the clock on the wall was showing the most prominent time period where the small hand meets the bigger hand. It was twelve noon and lunch is bound to be ready downstairs.

Kamryn was still sleeping with her body facing downwards and he can't help but slap her enticing butt to wake her up. With the slapping sound echoing in the room and the jiggling of her butt cheeks, Kamryn begrudgingly woke up.

Her red suit was still intact by her arms and legs but she was truly naked on the more important parts. She found Aster and gave piercing glares to his direction. "Why were you so violent?"

"It is my punishment for trying to take over my house." He shrugged while thinking of an excuse for himself to punish her. 'There is a first time for everything and she is lucky enough to not get the truly violent treatment I would give to future women who would disagree with my ways.'

Kamryn was truly a brilliant actress as she gave fake tears. "I really thought that the punishment was sex and here you go slapping this sexy lady's butt. I don't want you deforming its unrivaled curves."

"You really are a master in acting." Aster praised while she pulled her into his embrace and gave her a kiss. Kamryn was already done with processing the mastery insights she gained and can't help but ask him after breaking their kiss. "Aster, are you responsible for the dreams I was having in my head."

"Hmmm. It depends. If it is about images about mastering your blood-related skills, then yes. If it is about your sexual wonderland where you are imagining me, then no, because it would all be your fault for being crazy in love with me." He responded to her arrogant act with an arrogant act of his own. 'I really like how she acts all bossy just to not look weak in my eyes.'

Kamryn now knew that the images in her head were courtesy of him. She can't help but wonder about his other mysterious abilities and fall deeper into his trap of being an indescribable enigma.

He fixed the messy red strings that were leftovers of her red suit while leaving the sleeves and the pant parts for style. "You look good in this new suit."

"Hmmph. I am hungry and I don't like showing my nude body to your other women. I need to change to more appropriate clothing" She said while she was back to her strong facade. Aster could only shake his head while thinking of ways to truly change her mind about showcasing her body to other members of his harem. 'Tsk... tsk. You are challenging my authority and capability of handling a harem.'

Kamryn saw the terrifying glint in his black iris and can't help but be docile again. "I was only kidding around, darling Aster. This young lady is open to being the big sister to your women and I can win over their hearts if you choose me as your main wife."

She really knew how to salvage a situation and even accompanied it with a sales pitch that would deliver her a good spot in his future group. He could only shake his head from her antics and handed her a white sleeping robe to cover up the naked parts of her body. Her clothes were all on her space ring downstairs and coincidentally, they needed to eat lunch.

Both of them reached the dining table where they saw the siblings. Soup and rice was the one to fill up their stomachs in this meal.

"Hello!" The little girls greeted the guest as they were taught by their elder sisters to be polite. Even if that guest was weirdly wearing an attire that was foreign to them

"Hello to you as well!" Kamryn was genuinely surprised to see little girls in the household. Before she could continue with her pleasantries, her womanly instincts informed her of trouble as three glares were directed to her.

The exaggeration of forming sparks during a face-off was actually a fact from seeing the display of animosity that Aster is seeing with his own eyes.

Eve was the first one to break the silence. "Who might this big-boobed cow be?"

"Hoho! This big-boobed cow is a lover that Aster just picked up from feinting by your gates, miss Meatless Dumpling." Kamryn reversed the insult and worked on her advantage. They were all equally goddess-like in looks, so he turned to use the triplets' sore spot.

She even crossed her arms right below her breasts and just shook away. It was a move that intimidated the already offended triplets. Her boobs did not make the comical 'boing' sound but they still felt an attack from how it jiggled under the loose robes she is wearing.

"Hmmph! It must only be meat and no substance. You must be a dried-up cow with no milk to show for." The normally timid Plum was actually the one to make a comeback. Aster and her triplet assemble was shocked by her trash talk while Kamryn was thinking of a retort. Only the young ones were clueless as to what was going on.

"Pfft!" Only Aster was having fun from seeing their catfight. 'What an interesting lunchtime this will be.'

A nameless and disowned youth is sent out to fend for himself. Not known to his family is the secret that hid within him.

By his 18th birthday, the Lust Exchange System awakens from its long slumber. It assists him in his conquest to the peak and his life surrounded by beauties.

Amphorae took the lead, bringing Dyon in and closing the gates. Since this was the Imperial Harem, it was closed off to all men. Since their culture had no eunuchs, the rules were kept like this so as to not tempt anyone to do anything stupid. 
The Imperial Concubines were served by female maids, of which, each had two of their own. One could see how well Dyon treated them, especially considering he had no servants of his own. 
When the women noticed the entrance of a man, they were startled. However, when they realized who it was, the reactions varied wildly. Needless to say, Dyon took this opportunity to not each and every single one. 
Without having to say much, all 36 concubines gathered in the central area of the Imperial Harem. 
The room itself was quite elegant. It had massive windows projecting outward and toward the mountain ranged to the back of the castle. The rushing water Dyon had heard was actually a river that was diverted from that space, into the central area – it was a true feat of architecture and engineering. 
Seeing this, one of Dyon vague memories left by his grand teacher surfaced, clearly triggered by his experience here. 
It seemed that his predecessor had left all of the design and specifics of this mini-utopia up to his concubines. Clearly, there were quite a few talents here. 
Dyon could only sigh when he saw the looks of apprehension on the faces of his concubines. His predecessor really understood nothing about human relationships. Despite his goodwill, it made him a bad king. 
Although Dyon wasn't aware, the more he grasped the faults of the previous Angel Clan king, the more his aura changed almost imperceptibly. 
Looking around, Dyon decided that the best course of action was to act as leisurely as possible. These women were meant to be his and his alone, it was only that he never treated them as such. Even if he gave them all the material things in the world, there would always be something missing. 
So, Dyon directly took his shoes off, rolling up his loose linen pants until they stopped just below his calf. Then, he unbuttoned his shirt, taking it off before rest his feet in the water.
The women were stunned as they watched this scene. It was almost like this was truly a natural event, and much of this inadvertently rubbed off on them. This was only helped by the fact Pearl sat as close as she could to him, nearly climbing on top of his lap. 
Others may not understand why Dyon was doing this, but he had a very clear goal at hand. Although he suspected some of the concubines might be traitors, he would never act without 100% certainty. Therefore, there was another reason entirely that he was here. 
The first was that he was sure that this trial would take years, he needed to repair the culture and grievances of his Angel Clan to push it in the right direction. The second thing was who would know more tidbits about the internal affairs of the clan than its women? As stereotypical as it might sound, what else did the concubines have to do all day besides share information amongst themselves and their circles? 
Each woman here touched a core family of their Clan, and each of them was intelligent enough to understand how to take advantage of this. 
However, right now, these women were simply innocent souls, blushing while trying to decide whether they were allowed to look at the lean and toned torso or their husband. 
Some of the concubines were more embarrassed than others. They hadn't been prepared for such a visit, so many of them were swimming in the river, wearing fabrics that were already see through. They were completely caught between whether they should cover themselves up or if they would offend their King by doing so. 
Dyon took note of everything, understanding that his current silence was placing an invisible pressure onto these women. 
While this occurred, Amphorae finally walked back into the room. It seemed she had been sending the maid servants away for the day. However, what she was wearing stunned the beauties around her. 
This was Amphorae, their conservative queen. In fact, many of the concubines, although they understood this was wrong, saw Amphorae as more of their true queen than Dyon's true wife. 
The story behind this was quite complex, but from a very early age, Amphera, being the most outstanding female of the Angel Tribe, was universally recognized as next queen. In truth, Dyon had even treated her like this as well. It could be said that the two of them had some love between each other. 
However, when their current King, and the then prince, left to enter the world and temper himself, that was when he met a woman that snatched his heart away completely: Queen Luna. 
It was suffice to say that Amphorae was heart broken. Even when she compromised, holding off the anger of her father and protecting Dyon, agreeing to be a second wife, Dyon made no such compromise. In the end, the crowned beauty of the Angel Clan had been belittled into the role of a concubine, only to then still be neglected in favor of another woman. It was no wonder why her gaze was cold when she saw Dyon. 
And yet… She now walked out in untied silk robes. Her red hair reached the length of her plump bottom, barely hiding its two masses as they bounced with her every step. 
She wore no clothes under her robes, allowing the allure of her untouched and unblemished flower to greet her King's eyes. Her ample breasts, finally unbound by her conservative nature, healthily dipped within the confines of her robes, threatening to escape at any moment considering the faint edges of the delicate pink nipples they could all see. 
Despite this being the first time she had ever done something like this, and despite Dyon having not said anything about doing this sort of thing, she led by example, holding the bearing of a queen. She was not belittled, nor did she lose any dignity with her actions. 
Pearl, who was still clinging to Dyon smiled, slipping off her outer garments and sliding into the water, leaving her spot by their King to the one woman they truly saw as Queen. 
The voluptuous beauty seemed to glide through the air, the tips of her toes barely touching the waters as she made her way to her King. 
Without a word, she sat beside Dyon, crossing her long and slender legs. 
Although she said nothing, her meaning was clear. If you want the clan to be stronger and work as one, act like it.  
Dyon didn't understand it now, but he would soon understand just how perfect this first move of his was. The reason was very simple. When female key wielders took this trial, their role wouldn't be Dyon's. No. Their character would be Amphorae.

"You're too arrogant."

To Dyon, it seemed as though these words were heard all the time.

However, how could these people possibly know of all his hard work? Of the fact that sleep was but a distant relative of his. How could they know that he never had a single moment to rest. 

And yet, despite their ignorance, they still said, "you're too arrogant..."

But where were those people when a five-year-old Dyon's eyes shone looking at a computer screen filled with code? Where were those people when an eight-year-old Dyon played his piano and plucked his guitar strings until his fingers bled... needing to vent his feelings about his lost mother without bothering his fatigued father? Where were those people when Dyon sat alone at ten-years-old… when his parents were gone, and the only thing left was a room filled with inventions and computers?

Dyon's arrogance wasn't borne of thin air. It was his hard work. It was his shield. And he wasn't willing to give it up...

Now alone, he left his home behind. 

He was no longer the boy genius who changed the human mortal realm. He was now nothing but a commoner, a bug noble families saw fit to step on. An insignificant existence. 

And yet, Dyon was still the same unchanging person. Standing tall, his eyes firm and his will indomitable.  

This so-called Martial World would come to understand the meaning behind his existence...



**Excerpt** 
---------------------------------
"You're quite bold for a girl who's almost been recluse for her whole life you know," Dyon said chuckling.

"Little sister Delia and Meiying probably think so too, but you've been in my heart since the opening ceremony. Maybe not exactly in this way… But sometimes a foot in the door for a long time leads to a fully open one, no?"

Dyon smiled, 'it seems like she's been watching from afar for a long time… it must be lonely being in that room with Libro all the time.'

Dyon felt a delicate hand playing with his collar, "the truth is that I'm always playing the gentle big sister role, mostly because I have no idea how much longer I'll have the chance to…"

The vulnerability in her voice made Dyon tremble. Madeleine was so strong, yet it seemed even martial artists had their weaknesses too.

RMW happens to be the very first novel I've ever written. I have to admit that the first volume requires a lot of work. However, from the second volume onward I am confident in saying that it becomes a ride just as enjoyable as some of the best wuxia novels available. If you happen to read that far, and disagree, feel free to join our discord and call me an idiot for wasting your time, LMAO. I hope you guys stick it out to the end 

Wei Yi Yi met Jiang Yu with wide eyes. 
She was bathing in autumn's cold breeze under the starry sky. The moment Jiang Yu showed up, their gaze collided and she accidentally swallowed the candied fruit she was gnawing on.
Her face paled while her eyes reddened, ready to cry at any moment. 
It hurts. It really hurts, she wants to vomit it out. Wei Yi Yi covered her mouth and swallowed a few mouthfuls. Only the devils know that her real desire was to stick a finger in and vomit.
In the face of Wei Yi Yi trembling, Jiang Yu filled in the blanks for her and conveniently misunderstood. His countenance softened, and at the same time, a certain numbness crept into his bones, weakening his stance. 
"My empress, the breeze blew cold at night, let us go inside." Jiang Yu smoothly invited himself in.
Boss, I'm stress eating and you're interrupting. Wei Yi Yi bellied a stomach full of reproach. 
Invasion of privacy!
Tang Mei served them tea, followed by a tactful retreat with the other servants. Her actions were swift and practiced.
Wei Yi Yi grabbed the teacup, drowning herself until she's bloated. Seeing her restlessness, Jiang Yu let her settle down and silently sip his tea, observing a momentary silence before speaking first.
Slow in his words and gentle in his gestures, Jiang Yu goes round and round, even speaking some matters unrelated. He took great care in piecing each of his words and yet, still unable to speak of the weight in his heart.
"…Yi Yi," Jiang Yu paused at his attempts and called out in embarrassment.
Such honeyed tone, if he uses it to coquettishly call out to another guy, then maybe her head will snap a sharp turn. Too bad. Wei Yi Yi blinks away the evil's temptation.
"About the matters of the court and the young masters, I could only lend an ear to listen and be a companion." Such a big pot, she will not help carry, ah! "As for other matters, please speak freely."
"Imperial Consort Shen… I had visited her."
"That's good."
"..."
"....."
"...." Jiang Yu awkwardly consumed the whole pot of tea. As for Wei Yi Yi, she munched on her candied fruits as if she didn't choke just now.
Her appearance of calmness was the silence before the storm for Jiang Yu.
"It's a scheme," he said, finally interrupting the deafening silence.
"Indeed."
"We are far from the palace, it might be a plot of others to harm Shen Shi. Or it might be her own design to warn others, after all, it resulted in a big ruckus and now everyone is looking at her direction…"
"Boss, it will be fine. You should not worry," Wei Yi Yi said as always. Not forgetting to assure Jiang Yu of her qualification as a proficient employee.
"Aren't I just worrying about you? You…" They have yet to consummate their marriage. Jiang Yu hesitated to speak of the taint on their marriage. "You should host more banquets at the palace, associate with the madams frequently. It will… In the meantime, it will be the best for you."  
She was almost moved, if not for him telling her to conduct meetings. Is it too late to claim that I have social anxiety?
"Regardless of motive or who it is that plotted, her matters, as well as the others in the harem, they won't affect you, for I'll be here as your empress. Right now, your concern should be---"
"That… are you not upset?"
---the inevitable lover's quarrel with Ye Shi…
The bitter experience of constant interruption hunted Wei Yi Yi. "Do you accept constructive criticism? Formal complaint?"
"You are upset." Jiang Yu stated, perceiving her reaction.
Of course, she's upset! Just thinking about the harem, those concubines and their not-so-hidden ambitions, and how much trouble she's going to settle, Wei Yi Yi wanted to cry but have no tears.
They might be pretty to look at but the gears in their brain never stop working. Authentic vases are hard and then the flowers are thorny. 
Wei Yi Yi wanted to cry injustice. How come the Boss she followed can produce more trouble than her? 
"No need to act in front of me. I promise to make it up to you." Jiang Yu spoke more words of reassurance.  
Wei Yi Yi almost jumped and started hissing. Scum, ah! Always seducing me with incentives!
Who made her so loyal to such a scum? It was a momentary depletion of IQ, she forgot to count how many enemies she'll have with such a boss.
But she was really tempted, ah! Evil capitalist!
With her last bit of professionalism, she held on the arm itching to throttle Jiang Yu. "My opinion doesn't matter."
"How could it not? As my Empress, all children of the harem will still need to call you mother."
Wei Yi Yi pressed her lips. "Right." A whole pack of silly little kids, she really doesn't want a share of them. 
Picking up a candied fruit, Jiang Yu ate one then helped feed her. 
"Knowing Yi Yi, I know any storm won't be enough to make you bow." He attentively watched Wei Yi Yi while an idea formed in his mind. "Even so, if it becomes too much, there's still me."
The sweetness in Wei Yi Yi's mouth doubled which reflected into her smile. This kind of coaxing, Wei Yi Yi likes it the best. Especially when Jiang Yu says it without the same helplessness as before.
With such a tone, she feared the reluctance and was always careful not to fully irritate him, always having a flight respond. Now, look at him promising so willingly!
Isn't she looking over the harem just for this sweet promise of subordination? 
"I know. My boss is the most amazing." 
Hehe. They could all try to jump at her and she'll play with them~ If it seems she's losing, see if she doesn't dare to cry injustice towards her big boss.
Wei Yi Yi's mood soars to the sky, wanting to ascend. She even promised to decrease the dissing she's subjecting Jiang Yu secretly.
What morals, ah? Everything is subjective to its era.
Spreading the seed and sharing the rain and dew is part of their belief. What position are you using to condemn a man and his hundred years of culture and practice~
Such a happy mood could tide her over a few extra working hours, if not for Jiang Yu's following words.
Her 'amazing' Boss caressed her loose hair, bringing it close to him. He said, in her utter horror, "You are my empress, the only empress that my reign shall have. As husband and wife, let us have our own children."


"An empress is employed! While the Imperial noble consort is the true love, ah!"

What's so bad being a subordinate? 

As long as you do your work properly, you'll be paid and still have time to play.

Responsibilities? we have our boss for that! if things go wrong they'll hold the sky for you. Don't want to? Ayaya, point your fingers to them and people will hold them responsible for you.

If there's something, just say you don't know while redirecting the problem to them. When bad things come, you hold their thighs.

Be a good underling and boss will shield you from the rain! Such simple logic!

"Luckily the emperor is a good and powerful boss!"

Wei Yi Yi happily plans how to make him take all responsibility to her ploys.
