Once Fu Zhao left, the court was thrown into chaos. The fraction that had been supporting Fu Shi fell into a dilemma. Now what were they supposed to do? Were they going to continue supporting Fu Shi?
The other fractions, on the other hand, cheered up. In the past, they had never supported Fu Shi, as they didn't believe in her. She was too much like a puppet in the hands of Wei Yunrou, which was why they knew that even if Fu Shi became the empress, she would only cause trouble for them.
After all, it wouldn't be Fu Shi who would be ruling over them; it would be Wei Yunrou!
However, the problem was, who were they going to support? Other than Fu Shuyan, none of the princesses were capable enough to take the throne. But unfortunately for them, Fu Shuyan had no desire to become the empress.
"Bastards! The lot of them!" Fu Shi flipped the table onto the floor angrily. She had heard the discussion going on and felt as if the world was going to end. All these years, these people had sucked up to her as if they truly respected her but the second her position was taken away, they started to turn their backs on her one by one.
How dare they!
One of these days she was going to make them regret their actions. Just wait!
Wei Yunrou looked at the woman who was throwing things on the floor in her anger and pursed her lips. Truth be told, she was also furious with Fu Shi. Why did this woman make a move without discussing it with her? If she had told her the truth, then maybe they could have succeeded.
Now that the situation had escalated in such a way, even Wei Yunrou was thrown out of the loop. It was a classic example of going for wool and returning with shorn.
However, now that the situation had turned into a mess, she had no other choice but to start planning again. She could not let her years of plans be ruined. Just because a foolish woman did not know her own limits.
Though furious out of her mind, Wei Yunrou still smiled at Fu Shi and then said to her, "Your highness, please calm down. There is no need for you to lose hope."
"How can I not lose hope?" Fu Shi asked with reddened eyes. She turned to look at Wei Yunrou and stated, "I have been waiting to become the Empress since I was sixteen, no fourteen. The day I was crowned as the crown princess but now my mother is telling me that all of my dreams will never come true? How can I not be angry?"
She was so angry that she wished to kill her foolish consort. That bastard promised her that nothing would happen; was this nothing? She had lost her title!
Fu Shi started pacing around in her officer and muttered, "All because of a simple mistake. My daddy was right; mother has still not forgotten Master Wen. For his sake, she is willing to harm even me. How can my mother do such a thing? That too for a mer!"
Wei Yunrou's eyes flashed with disgust. She knew that Fu Shi was quick to shrik responsibility but she never thought that this woman was so foolish that she actually dumped all the blame on Wen Gui's head.
Was this even related to Wen Gui? This happened because she was too careless and left a piece of evidence behind her.
However, even though she would have loved to hurl the truth right in Fu Shi's face, she somehow managed to hold herself back. Pursing her lips, Wei Yunrou sighed. She then said to Fu Shi, "Your highness, there is another way. Have you forgotten? I told you that traces of the Zerg Queen were found. These traces still hold the power of the Zerg Queen. If we find a proper shell, then we can recreate another Zerg Queen."
"I will do it."
"What?"
