Chapter Ninety-one 

Being a person from the modern world and a well read one at that, Ying Zetian knew that Nan Gong Jing is that type of character if he could not get that person, he will destroyed her. If not for Ying Zetian's careful nature in not letting people knew of her Devil identity and letting the shops under her Rose identity having a backup plan, her empire may all come to an end. Ying Zetian knew now that her only problem is how to get rid of Nan Gong Jing unknowingly. It is not as if she, Ying Zetian did not give Nan Gong Jing any chances. If there are any slightest chances of it being known that Ying Zetian is the one to get rid of Nan Gong Jing, she will be in big trouble.

Ying Zetian knew that now that she had taken over Tai Ping and unbalance the shaky balance that caused the other three countries not be tempted to take over Tai Ping. It will be open season for the other three countries to try and take over Tai Ping. And Ying Zetian knew that killing Nan Gong Jing will be a very good reason for the three countries to launch war with Tai Ping.

Unknowingly, Ying Zetian, while thinking had clenched her hands so tightly, one could almost hear an audible crack of the bones of Tang Wudi hands. That crack woke the usually sensitive Ying Zetian and she open her eyes to see her hands were tightly clenched around Tang Wudi's hand. Tang Wudi stood up while still holding Ying Zetian's hands and bend down to gently kiss Ying Zetian on her forehead while saying.

"Now now, my ever-lovely Ying er which is as beautiful as the peach blossom makeup that you usually like. Tonight, I have a surprise for you and that will make up for the pain that you caused in cracking my hands. So, now let me help you apply the peach blossom makeup that you like so much."

Ying Zetian's attention was pulled into Tang Wudi's violet color eyes that is getting deeper in color. Ying Zetian never expected that Tang Wudi's eyes could get so deeply violet in color that seems like it was the color of star glittering night. Especially when the sunlight reflected on his eyes make it seems like the stars of the night is all in Tang Wudi eyes. Ying Zetian knew Tang Wudi's thoughts and blushed a deep red making her all the more ready to be a bride instead of an emperor that is having her accession ceremony today.

"Now, all is ready, my heart. Hold my hands. If I see any bleakness in your eyes, I will punish you more heavily tonight." Tang Wudi stood up after applying her favorite peach blossom for Ying Zetian and held his hands out for her to hold on to.

Seemingly as if even the heavens are also sending their blessings to Ying Zetian and Tang Wudi. The rain stopped when Ying Zetian and Tang Wudi came out of her room and a rainbow appear in the sky.
