1537 Words
Empress? Husbands? that was too much to bear, did she die? or did she transmigrated just like the novels she had read before?
"No, I don't want to meet them yet."
The maid in front of her looked at her expressionlessly, "If you feel dizzy then you deserve it your imperial Highness."
She looked up at the young girl in front of her, "You are rude, who are you?"
"Lilly, your personal servant." the maid replied without a hint of smile on her face, anyone who saw her face would know how unhappy she is being the Empress personal servant.
"Well, Lilly.... are there any gods or minsters and stuff like that in this world?"
"Do you want to visit the temple? I can arrange for that Empress." Lilly turned and walk towards the closet and bought out a blue dress, "get up and put this on." she commanded.
The Empress widened her eyes, "Now listen here Lilly, I'm not your Empress and you can't talk to me in that tone and......" she suddenly stopped talking.
Lilly? she had heard that name before, actually she was at first trying to remember where she had heard that name but when Lilly started commanding her while calling her an Empress, she suddenly remember where she had heard the name, I love myself. a shitty name but an interesting novel.
'I love myself.' is an interesting novel that made everyone who read it wish to become the female lead and the villain at the same time.
The novel started when the Empress was a young princess who was liked by everyone, but being the only child, her parent didn't show her love cause she was just a young girl, they believed that a girl can't govern the country so they planned to adopt a baby in secret.
Emma, who was the young princess was so innocent that she didn't actually care about the hatred her parent showered her instead of love, she did everything a boy could do, but still she wasn't acknowledged by her parents.
When her secret adopted brother was introduced to her, she was happy and gladly accepted him thinking her parent would finally look her in the face, but that didn't happen.
Instead the bullying by the servants increased, luckily for her the adopted brother grew up to be useless person, he doesn't understand literature and sword fighting nor any military books, whenever he was insulted he would laugh so loudly without care of the world.
The Empress and Emperor blamed Emma for her brother's lack of knowledge, she would always drag her brother to teach him, but it seems that the more he was taught, the more stupid he become.
The Emperor and Empress arranged the assassination of Emma so their beloved adopted son would take the throne, but it was found out by Emma and she killed them first and claimed the throne.
The once sweet and lovely Emma turned evil, she did care about her people but she also kill without blinking, she married five husbands that would make her claim go the throne to be stable, but at the end she died by the hand of one of her husbands who was obsessed with the throne.
"Lilly."
Lilly who was staring at the Empress that just zoned out blinked twice when she heard her name, "That's right, I'm Lilly." she replied.
"What is my name?"
"Emma, Empress Emma de Lockhart, the only female Empress in history." Lilly answered.
"No, no no no no, why her? I was good in my past life, why not the female lead! I don't want to be the villain that died, I don't want to die!" Emma yelled as tears fell from her eyes, she buried her face in the white pillow in her hand.
Lilly looked at the crying Empress and sighed, "If you don't want to die yet, stand up and put on this right now, you are wasting my precious time."
Emma looked up at Lilly and gulped, in the novel Lilly was actually an emotionless person that loves money more than anything, but she died while saving the Empress.
"Just twenty minute to cry at my unfortunate self, twenty gold penny." Emma said, while Lilly gave her a thumbs up understanding what she meant.
Twenty minute later.
Emma stood in front of the three big mirror without looking at it, she had cried her eyes out, at first she was crying cause she knows her ending then suddenly he started crying again cause of her mother who was home alone without no one to talk to.
She turned and looked at Lilly, "Let go." when the door of her room opened, she saw five different men sitting down on different chairs while looking down.
When their eyes looked up at her she gasped, she had always been a sucker for fine faces and the men in front of her were to die for.
She immediately recognized them by their hair colour, her body owner chose her men with different hair colour cause she was attracted by the way their long hair looks under the sun, but the her right now, prefer the face.
The men stood up an rushed towards her asking for her well being, she couldn't help it but smile....
"Wife."
"Wife."
"Wife."
"Wife."
She smiled while nodding at the men calling her 'Wife.' but suddenly stopped smiling when she didn't hear the fifth person, she glanced at the person standing far away from her, she smiled at the four people in front of her then walk towards the fifth person.
One of the things Emma loved about her transmigration was her height, she transmigrated with height so she didn't intimidated while staring at the eyes of her fifth husband, but suddenly she shuddered when their meet, she took a step back in fear.
He looks similar to a foreign demon with amber eyes and a subtle hint of jade that shines, and bet it would shine so bright in the depth of the night just like the gaze of a tiger staring at his prey and she was the prey, his eyes brought out a new feeling within her.
The man in front of her quickly look away when he saw the woman in front of him taking a step back away from him, he had always hated his eyes.
Emma saw the look on the man's face and gulped, his dark skin was urging her to take a bite, she quickly shook her head and took a step forward, "Hi."
The man in front of her widened his eyes and looked back at her and almost immediately look down, she had never talked to him before.
Emma smiled, "I'm fine, thank you for worrying." she turned and went back to the other four who were staring at her like she had gone crazy.
She had always called the first consort a demon and a monster, she also hated the first consort, so why did she walk to him?
They were curious but didn't voice out their curiosity.
"My babies, I'm okay, now go back to your daily activities, the morning court awaits me." she smiled, turned and walk out of the sitting with Lilly.
The consort rushed to the first consort, "First consort, our wife..... she seems to have changed." a blue haired said.
The first consort nodded and turned, he looked at the back of Emma and sighed, he hope this change is for the better.
On her way to the court room, she was deep in thought, she had already forgotten among the consort who wanted to killed her.
She had remembered she everything that happened in the novel in the back of her head, but she had already forgotten the consort that wants her dead.
Her consorts were all from high position and that one of the reason her body owner chose them.
Winston Anderton, long black hair, black skinned and the grand duke of her kingdom, forced the marriage on him.
Oscar Ramsay, long blue hair, white skinned and a crown Prince of another kingdom, forced the marriage on him.
Curtis Wordsworth, long red hair, white skinned and a general commander of another kingdom, forced the marriage on him.
William Talon, long green hair, white skinned and the head of a secret organization that known as death eaters in another kingdom forced the marriage on him.
Henry Bing, long blond hair, white skinned and a merchant in another kingdom, also forced the marriage on him.
Her body owner forced the five of them to marry her, so one of them must have hated her so much while pretending to love her, was it the dark skinned one? he kinda give off the vibe.
She looked up and almost scream, there were lots of old people kneeling in front of her without moving, "What the f**k! stand up!"
She was lost in thought and didn't ask her council members to stand up when they greeted her.
She sat on the throne not knowing what to say, when she opened her mouth to talk, the courtroom door opened and her younger brother entered with a smug face.
