148 - - Art. 148. The Empress Dowager, Ramallon Crow Lasis



Lacis was biting her lip. She was happy to be able to enjoy this view.

The throne of Lacis, the Empress Dowager, is placed below the throne of the Emperor. In other words, her throne is at the same level as the emperor\'s. You are looking at the view that only the emperor is allowed to see, and you are looking at it as well. Above all, I am sharing the best view with my son who is dearer to me than life itself. What could be better than this?

Madeline, the Prime Minister, stands up, bows reverently to the Emperor, and reads out the decree bestowing food on the assembled nobles. As she listens to his voice, she thinks back over the decades she has spent fighting. Half her life had been dedicated to making her son emperor.

Lamaron Crowe Lacis was born in the city of Kesir, at the southern tip of the Lamaronic Empire. Her father was a general in the imperial army who later became the governor of the Jukka Kingdom after having taken over some of its areas.

When Lacis was 10 years old, his father\'s triumphal return ceremony was held in the imperial capital. She can still vividly recall the glittering scene.

However, her father was killed in the middle of the battle by the counterattack of the army of the Kingdom of Juka. She was 12 years old. Her mother, who had lost her husband, was later discovered by the emperor Lamaron Crow Dius, who took her as one of his wives.

At the age of 15, Lacis married Aeno, the son of Lucius, the emperor\'s brother. However, Aeno already had a full wife, and Lacis was taken as a concubine. Soon after, she was pregnant.

She suffered from severe morning sickness, but her belly began to grow and she was finally in a stable period when her mother was accused of adultery and executed by Emperor Dius. This was said to be a conspiracy by the queen and other concubines, but it was a great shock to Lacis. Her father-in-law, Lucius, and her husband, Aeno, were afraid of the emperor and imprisoned Lacis in a room of their house. In a poorly lit room, fed on meager food, and alone with her three attendants, Lacis gave birth to a child in that room. The present emperor, Lamarone Crow Fraynse.

In the case of Lacis, however, she did not have a nanny. In other words, she raised Fraynse with her own breast milk. She spent five years in that room with her attendants.

Fortunately, Frayss was a strong child like his father. And she was a quiet child, a child without any needs. She spent all the time she had with her children, looking forward only to their growth.

When Fraynse was five years old, the Emperor Dius died. After many twists and turns, his father-in-law Lucius came to the throne as the next emperor. At this time, Lacis was finally released from imprisonment and allowed to move into the palace with her husband.

Five years later, her father-in-law Lucius also passed away, and her husband Aeno ascended the throne.

Aeno was a competent emperor. He successfully conquered the area that was then occupied by the Kingdom of Jucia. Not only that, he restored the finances of the Lamaronic Empire, which had collapsed due to the repeated expeditions of the previous emperor Dius. In fact, Lacis was behind this success. She was a behind-the-scenes contributor to the financial recovery.

Emperor Aeno was a policy maker who deserved to be called a great man. However, soon after his accession to the throne, he was so busy that he lost interest in his wives rapidly. The queen and her concubines were dressed up in luxurious and glittering clothes and competed with each other in beauty in order to attract the emperor\'s attention. As a result, the financial situation of the kingdom continued to worsen.

Lacis advised her husband, the emperor. Let\'s be thrifty.

Lacis did not pay attention to the beauty pageant of the women, but thoroughly removed the waste from her surroundings. She dismissed many of the chambermaids she had been given, sold the jewelry, costumes, and luxurious furnishings given to her by the emperor, and took the initiative in moving to a smaller, cruder room. For her, nothing was needed as long as her son Fraynse was by her side. This action, which would have resulted in her banishment from the palace or even death, struck a chord with the emperor. This incident led the emperor to issue a decree of thrift in the palace. The huge amount of money that had been spent in the imperial palace was saved, and the finances of the empire began to recover.

This brought her to the attention of the emperor and the bureaucrats and soldiers who served him.

A few years later, the Empress Aeno died. When the question of who should be the future queen was discussed, many bureaucrats and military officers suggested Lacis as the queen. The emperor was encouraged by their voices and chose Lacis as the queen.

After becoming the queen, Lacis advised the emperor to reduce waste thoroughly. First of all, the emperor\'s chamberlains, who numbered more than ten fingers, were rearranged, so that there were only two chamberlains. At this time, the two remaining concubines were both fathered by high-ranking military officials. Military officers have a strong voice in the royal family. Lacis took advantage of this. Thus, she succeeded in winning the military over to her side and had the second and third sons of the emperor\'s three sons demoted to the rank of vassals.

Although there were many protests against this, it resulted in a huge cost saving, not only in the cost of supporting the concubines and the prince, but also in reducing the personnel costs of the attendants and ladies-in-waiting who served them.

Having thus gained the trust of the emperor and the army, Lacis then proceeded to steadily lay the groundwork for his son Freyns to become emperor.

First, she gave her sister in marriage to Koenig Wamoli, the captain of the Kingsguard of Lamarone, as his future wife. Then she made her sister the head of the courtesan\'s household.

Wamori was a man of gentle heart. Together with his sister, he encouraged Wamori and promoted him, and eventually appointed him to the post of chief of the Imperial Guard. As for the fathers of the two remaining concubines, he finally appointed them to the positions of Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Defense Forces.

As for his own son Freyns, he took the granddaughter of the former emperor as his daughter-in-law, and also officially adopted Freyns as the emperor\'s adopted son, making all possible arrangements.

Thus, Lacis, who had the army and the palace under his control, repeatedly told the emperor through their mouths that it was Freyns, not the crown prince, who was truly suitable for the throne.

On the other hand, the Crown Prince did not sit idly by. He took advantage of the women who had been driven out of the palace, their families, and the Prime Minister to spread the word about the low status of Lacis and the folly of Freyns. Here, it seemed that an ugly power struggle had begun in the Kingdom of Lamaron.

However, the power struggle ended in a surprising way. The emperor has abolished the crown prince.

The trap that Lacis had set for the Crown Prince was ingenious. First of all, she told her husband, Emperor Aeno, that the Crown Prince would be the next heir to the throne. Then, she suggested that the Crown Prince should achieve a great achievement that would convince all the people.

On the other hand, he informed the Crown Prince\'s side that the Lacis faction was trying to oust the Crown Prince\'s side and was planning to have his son, Fraynse, achieve great results. He also informed them that his policy was "extermination of sparrows" at the same time.

Since sparrows were recognized as a harmful bird that ate up crops in the imperial palace, the crown prince gladly accepted this proposal and presented it to the emperor. The emperor accepted the idea and appointed the crown prince as the person in charge of exterminating the sparrows.

The crown prince immediately sent out a message and exterminated sparrows all over the country.

However, problems soon arose. Mosquitoes, flies, locusts, and other insects began to multiply all over the country. These pests devoured the crops, and it looked as if the Lamarong Empire was going to have the worst crop ever.

But it was Fraynse who came to the rescue. The faction of Lacis and Freyns and their children did not actively exterminate the sparrows, and the crops in their lands were safe. Thanks to this, the Lamaronian Empire was able to survive the crisis.

Lacis knew. The sparrows were not a harmful bird. In the cramped, shabby room where she had spent the night with the young Freyns, she had heard from one of the old maids of honor about the role of the sparrows.

This policy fiasco was enough to discredit the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince was subjected to public criticism and was abandoned by his father, the Emperor, and imprisoned in a crude mansion far from the imperial capital.

With the support of the army and the people, Lacis no longer had any enemies. She assassinated her husband, Emperor Aeno, who was showing signs of old age.

She used the method of poisoning. She used a drug called "consolum" to kill the emperor by making him suffer from breathing difficulties.

This medicine was a slow-acting poison, but its bitter taste was a disadvantage. She instructed the cook to serve sweet ice-cream for dessert. The emperor, who had always had a sweet tooth, was pleased with this, especially in the summer season, and he ate many ice cakes. He then drank the wine that was served afterwards, which Lacis himself had poured, and went to bed, only to be found the next day in bed, mute.

When people eat cold food, their sense of taste is paralyzed for a while. The poisoners took advantage of this. Her father was a military man, and she had seen her father use water magic to cool the affected parts of his body when he was injured to ease the pain. She was inspired by this experience.

One year after the death of the Emperor, the coronation of his son, Frejns, took place, a long-awaited event. She had gained immense power as the mother of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, both in name and in reality.

From his early childhood, she had raised him with kind words, and he had grown up to be a sensitive, small-minded man who was extremely afraid of being abandoned by his mother. As a result, Freins accepted his mother\'s words without question. She loved her son and did not allow anything to get in his way or to be wasted on him.

Thanks to her efforts, there is now no one who can stand against this mother and son. At last, they had all the power, and they were surrounded by all the luxuries of life. But even with all this, the Empress Dowager\'s desires had no end.

Her current desire is for her son to surpass her predecessor\'s fame. The empire of Lamarohn is hers. Now she wants the history of the empire. She wants her son Fraynse to be the greatest monarch in the history of the kingdom. That\'s what she wants now.

To do so, she must make her son achieve great things. The current food crisis in the Kingdom of Ramallon was the best chance to fulfill this desire. The Empress Dowager\'s warped love was about to run out of control...
