The doors closed behind him again.

The scent of the incense stick immediately made its way to his nostrils and he frowned completely knowing from the scent for what purpose they were being used.

The room was huge.

Zhao Wang Lei\'s eyes roamed around the room as he tried to take everything inside his heart and mind about the familiar place.

How long has it been since he had last come here?

The memory flashed inside his mind making his eyes go cold. For an instant, a forlorn look crossed his eyes when his eyes finally fell on the blurry figure sitting on the bed on the other side of the translucent screen.

In a daze, Zhao Wang Lei walked towards that figure and raised his hand to remove the screen when he was close. However, a cold voice instantly stopped him amidst his actions.

"Respecting Your Majesty not to remove the screen."

Zhao Wang Lei instantly paused amidst his actions. The cold voice made the forlorn look in his eyes vanished and his phoenix eyes gained their usual coldness and indifference back.

His finger slowly left the translucent screen and he took a step back.

The cold but respectful voice of the Empress Dowager came again from the other side of the screen.

"Your Majesty can take a seat. Although it might not be as comfortable as the throne of your Majesty, one can still lean against it and not get tired."

Zhao Wang Lei\'s eyes didn\'t change at all at the hidden taunt inside the words. His eyes fell on the chair placed in front of the screen and he walked towards it emotionlessly.

After Zhao Wang Lei sat on the chair, he didn\'t say anything. He stared at the translucent figure on the other side of the screen wondering what all changes the woman on the other side had gone through during all these years.

He could see the beads rotating in those hands that perhaps now looked a little wrinkled because of the woman\'s old age.

The room was silent. Except for the Empress Dowager\'s quiet whispers where she took God\'s name, no other sound could be heard.

Neither he nor the Empress Dowager spoke.

In the end, it was he who had to break this silence and say

"How is Empress Mother doing here?"

No response came from the other side.

Zhao Wang Lei\'s face didn\'t have any emotion but he still asked politely again

"Why does Empress Mother now comes out? The other part of the Imperial Palace is waiting for the Empress Mother with his arms open."

Looking around the cold room, he continued

"And that part is more comfortable than this cold room."

Again no response came from the other side. However, Zhao Wang Lie was not discouraged. He suddenly stood up from the chair and then walked towards a corner. Bending down to pick a burning incense stick in his hand and he continued

"Using these incense sticks is not good for Empress Mother\'s health. If Empress Mother can\'t sleep properly then Zhen will send the Imperial Physician here and he wi…"

"If Your Majesty wishes to talk about something important, then Your Majesty can stay. However, if that is not the case then please leave from here."

The cold voice of Empress Dowager interrupted Zhao Wang Lei and his lips were pressed in a thin line after hearing those words.

A moment later, he put down the incense stick back in its place and then walked back to sit on the chair.

"So Empress Mother is stubborn to stay here…"

He whispered more likely to himself as soon as he was seated.

Nodding his head to himself, he continued

"So stubborn Empress Mother…to the point that you even used your last straw to save Li Clan and go against Zhen, however, you never came out of your hiding place."

Zhao Wang Lei could see that the hand on the other side of the screen had stopped rotating the beads now indicating that the person was hearing him attentively or perhaps was even angry after hearing his words.

Regardless of anything, he continued

"Does Empress Mother think that she can stop Zhen by staying in her hiding place?"

Zhao Wang Lei didn\'t pause to hear the answer of his question.

"If Empress Mother thinks that, then Zhen is here to inform you that Empress Mother is very wrong."

After a moment of pause, Zhao Wang Lei continued and this time he didn\'t even bother to use the titles anymore as he said

"You can\'t do anything. You can\'t stop me from getting what I want. You couldn\'t do anything years ago when you were free …out there in the Imperial Palace with the power of an Empress. And just like that, you won\'t be able to do anything now also, especially with you hiding inside here."

At the end of his words, Zhao Wang Lei had almost stood up from his chair and was breathing harshly.

"Leave"

The cold voice asked him to leave the room and he stared at the translucent screen emotionlessly.

"Leave from here instantly."

Zhao Wang Lei scoffed at hearing the cold and sharp voice again. Without saying anything else, he turned around and left the room.

Outside the room, Momo Zhu and Eunuch Wang who were standing silently were a little startled when the door opened suddenly and the Emperor stepped out with not so a good face.

However, Zhao Wang Lei didn\'t say anything. Snatching his dagger from the old Momo\'s hands, he left from there with his servant, Eunuch Zhang.

The old Mom expressionlessly looked at the leaving Emperor\'s back and after that, she closed the doors again and went back to the room where the Empress Dowager lived with another pair of incense sticks.
