The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

Chapter 809 - 1: The Slacker Empress

"Immersive?" Kong Hou shouted angrily, "What kind of broken world is this? How did we randomly end up in such a small world? And letting the master become the Empress? What qualifications does that human have to be the master’s husband?"

"It’s just completing a task, all of it is fake." Dong Xiao said, watching Kong Hou almost rolling on the floor, feeling a bit of a headache, "There’s no way around it, the person with the heavenly destiny in this small world directly chose to dissipate, vanished into the world between, and we can only use the identity of the person of heavenly destiny to keep this world functioning."

"I don’t care, I don’t care." Kong Hou pouted, "Just an Emperor, what merit does he have to make our master his Empress? I want to go and eat him!"

"Little Kong Hou, be good. It’s just a task. Before meeting you all, I also did a lot of immersive tasks." Tianmiao looked at the sulking Kong Hou and couldn’t help but laugh lightly, "Think about it positively, you can experience a different sensation."

Kong Hou pouted and said nothing.

"Actually, I suspect that Chaos is doing this to let me experience the love and hate of humans." Tianmiao tilted her head, speculating.

"Huh?" Both Kong Hou and Dong Xiao were stunned.

"Alright, let’s go." Tianmiao chuckled and waved her hand, letting Dong Xiao and Kong Hou prepare for the jump to the shop of all things.

...

The Great Zhou Country is powerful and prosperous, with the new Emperor possessing an iron fist, and its tribute states submitting and offering contributions annually.

The new Emperor, named Chen Jingchen, is 25 years old. In the three years since ascending the throne, the Great Zhou Country has grown increasingly prosperous and strong.

The harem is filled with blossoming beauties.

At first, Chen Jingchen, with an unstable foundation, expanded his harem to maintain political balance, later gaining the luxury to enrich the harem according to his own preferences.

Yet, he never appointed an Empress, causing many people confusion.

After appointing an Empress, even more people were puzzled.

Because the Empress neither possessed captivating beauty nor an extraordinary family background, being merely the daughter of a sixth-ranking official.

However, after appointing an Empress, the Emperor would only go to the Empress on the first and fifteenth of each month as per ancestral instructions, going just to sit, and at other times never stepping foot aside.

Gradually, people within the harem understood that the Emperor merely wanted to have an Empress, this Empress was not favored.

"But what does that matter?" Tianmiao sprawled ungracefully on the soft couch, laughing lightly, "An unfavored Empress is still an Empress, right? I have the Phoenix Seal, I still have the rights of an Empress. Who dares to mistreat me?"

Kong Hou was massaging Tianmiao’s calf, grinning with bared teeth, "Who dares disobey the master’s commands, I’ll bite them to death."

Dong Xiao stood outside the hall with a blank expression, guarding. Kong Hou could transform into a Palace Maid, but what about him?

If wanting to serve the master closely, it’s either dressing as a woman to become a Palace Maid or transforming into a eunuch.

Both options are too difficult!

Finally, Dong Xiao chose to disguise himself as a guard, unable to serve close at hand, only able to be outside the hall, but it seemed like the best choice.

Tianmiao’s current appearance is vastly different from her original look. The original Empress had a plain appearance, not even qualifying as a demure beauty. Her only highlight might have been her almond-shaped eyes. But unfortunately, the Emperor favors big, double-lidded eyes. The Empress’s only highlight couldn’t attract the Emperor’s interest, so the Empress truly was left out in the cold.

However, everything changed when Tianmiao arrived. Cold? Cold indeed, does she need the Emperor’s favor?

Certainly not.

But the Empress identity is very useful.

"Send over the two crates of honeydew melons offered by the tributary states yesterday," Tianmiao said lazily. Previously, these tributes were distributed by the Empress. The Emperor would get a box, the Empress Dowager would get half a box, the most favored concubine would receive a few, those favored received one, and those out of favor got nothing at all. The Emperor’s box would then be given to his cherished concubine. So, the most favored concubine usually ended up with quite a lot. And the previous Empress didn’t even keep one for herself. The Emperor always thought of the Empress as being very self-aware, thinking he chose a sensible Empress.

After today, the Emperor’s feeling will be completely overturned.
