What's wrong with having a large harem if you're the emperor of the ninja world?

如何得到？

He chose the most despicable, yet most direct, method.

On a carefully chosen night when neither Fugaku nor Itachi could return.

He secretly mixed special drugs he obtained on the black market into Mikoto's tea.

Watching this gentle, beautiful, and noble clan chief's wife drink it without any suspicion.

Di Yan's heart was pounding.

Half of it was guilt, and the other half was the excitement of impending success.

The medication took effect...

Mikoto Uchiha's resistance seemed so powerless in the face of her physical reactions...

That night marked the beginning of evil.

And what's even more ironic is that...

Afterwards, Mikoto, immersed in immense pain and a sense of betrayal, was further affected by the drugs and the enormous psychological impact.

He even attributed part of the responsibility to himself.

She thought it was because her husband was away from home for long periods of time that she felt lonely and couldn't bear it.

That's why she developed inappropriate thoughts about Di Yan, the young and handsome man she spent every day with.

That's why he would do such a shameful thing while "out of his mind".

The immense shame and guilt nearly overwhelmed her.

It was this distorted self-blaming mentality that gave Di Yan the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

He feigned deep affection and understanding.

Using sweet talk and deliberate gentleness, they took advantage of the situation.

When Mikoto was at her most vulnerable, most confused, and most in need of support.

But when you dare not tell anyone.

Di Yan became her only "confidant" and "understanding person".

Guilt, dependence, and the complex physiological feelings brought about by the medication and the first experience...

A combination of factors.

In her despair, Mikoto Uchiha clung to the lifeline like a drowning person grasping at a piece of driftwood.

She gradually succumbed to the venomous and tender trap that Di Yan had meticulously woven.

"hey-hey……"

Di Yan pulled himself out of his memories.

Looking at the shy and uneasy beauty in his arms, he tightened his grip on her.

He lowered his head and planted a kiss on her smooth forehead.

His voice was seductive, "How can you blame me? If anyone is to blame... blame Mikoto for being too beautiful."

"Like a ripe peach, it makes you want to take a bite..."

Mikoto Uchiha's body trembled slightly in his arms.

I don't know if it was because of these explicit words of love, or because of that inescapable shame and dependence.

She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings.

In the end, it all turned into a barely audible sigh.

She allowed Di Yan's aura to surround her.

Inside this magnificent golden cage.

She was both a mother and a lover.

.......

8. Revenge against Konoha; Alexandre Dumas System

A moment later.

Mikoto's soft hand pressed down on Di Yan's hand, which was wandering freely over her heart, intending to explore it further.

Her cheeks still had a lingering blush.

His eyes, however, held a hint of worry and scrutiny as he stared directly into Di Yan's unfathomable eyes:

"Your Majesty...do you...have feelings for Kurenai...?"

She chose her words carefully, her voice soft yet resolute, "They've made their move?"

As the de facto manager of Emperor Yan's harem.

Although this title was never officially conferred.

However, all affairs of the harem, including those of the newly "residents," were implicitly arranged and managed by her.

She learned of the news that Yuhi Kurenai had been "invited" to the city immediately.

She even personally took care of the woman who, despite being unconscious, still displayed an indomitable spirit.

They were placed in a magnificent but cold side hall not far from Emperor Yan's palace to rest.

At this moment, I think about the coercion that young, stubborn girl might have suffered.

In Mikoto's heart, who was also a woman.

A surge of indescribable heartache and sorrow for the plight of fellow humankind welled up within me.

Di Yan paused in his movements.

The amused smile on his face remained unchanged, even carrying a sense of matter-of-fact composure.

"Yes. She is very important."

He made no attempt to hide anything, speaking in a calm tone as if he were simply stating the weather, “This is just the first step, Mikoto.”

He pulled his hand away from Mikoto's grasp and instead put his arm around her waist.

To bring her closer to me.

Di Yan's voice was deep and calculating:

"By controlling Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame, core members of the ninja clan, and using Kurenai Yuhi as bait, we lured Asuma and his three underlings, Ino-Shika-Cho, into the trap."

"By using the identities of these clan chiefs' successors, the major ninja clans of Konoha are forced to hesitate to act against them."

"Even if I can't make them submit to me, at least I can keep them neutral."

"Unfortunately, Hinata Hyuga's personality is disliked by the Hyuga main family, and she has lost her status as the main family's heir. Otherwise, the Hyuga..."

"Konoha appears united, but in reality it is a disorganized mess that I will eventually divide and dismantle."

His eyes flashed with a cold light, like moving chess pieces on a chessboard.

"Once all these preparations are complete," Di Yan's voice carried a hint of cruel satisfaction, "it will be time for us to take revenge on Konoha and settle all scores!"

"revenge!"

These four words are like Mars.

In an instant, it ignited the tinder of hatred that Mikoto had buried deep in her heart!

Her body stiffened abruptly, then began to tremble violently.

Those gentle eyes, always filled with sorrow, suddenly became incredibly sharp and cold at this moment.

Like a cold blade coated with poison.

The deep-seated resentment erupted like magma, almost scorching her reason!

That night!

That hellish night.

She watched with her own eyes as her eldest son, Uchiha Itachi, whom she was so proud of, with those cold, numb eyes.

She plunged a knife into her husband, Uchiha Fugaku's, heart!

At that moment, her world collapsed, and her heart turned to ashes.

She had even given up resisting, only wanting to follow her husband in death...

It's Di Yan!

At the critical moment, in a way she still cannot understand.

Knock her unconscious and take her away before Itachi's sword touches her.

When she woke up again.

They were already together with more than twenty other Uchiha orphans who were equally bewildered and grieving.

We are on our way to the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Fire.

Later, from Di Yan's mouth.

Only then did she learn the bloody truth.

Danzo Shimura, a high-ranking member of Root in Konoha, harbors fear and plots against the Uchiha clan.

That forced Itachi to make a cruel choice between "exterminating his clan" and "the Konoha civil war".

And the immense pain Itachi endured, forced to slaughter his entire clan and bear the burden of unimaginable sins in order to protect his younger brother Sasuke…

The husband's death was utterly meaningless!

The sacrifice of the entire Uchiha clan was a casualty of the dirty political struggles within the Konoha leadership!

And her two sons.

One became a traitorous ninja burdened with blood debts, while the other, blinded by hatred, fled to a distant land!

hatred!

A hatred etched deep into one's bones!

This hatred sustained her and kept her by Di Yan's side.

It became an important pillar for him to stabilize the rear and manage the palace, which was like a gilded birdcage.

She needs Di Yan's power, and she needs his promised revenge!

Thinking of this, the hatred in Mikoto's eyes almost materialized.

She gripped Di Yan's arm tightly with her other hand, her nails almost digging into his flesh, her voice hoarse with a resolute tone:

"On the day Konoha is destroyed... I want to be there!"

"I want to witness the downfall of those hypocrites with my own eyes! Your Majesty, please allow me to accompany you!"

"I am a ninja too! I also have the power to fight!"

She wanted to see Shimura Danzo and those Konoha officials who had forced her family to be destroyed pay the price!

Di Yan looked at the flames of revenge burning in Mikoto's eyes; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

He nodded in satisfaction, his fingers gently tracing her lips, which trembled slightly with excitement.

"Of course, Mikoto. I will reserve a good place for you."

However, he changed the subject.

The other hand, however, carried an irresistible force.

Suddenly, the hem of Mikoto's loose, light-colored kimono was lifted!

Her smooth, jade-like skin and mature, graceful curves were instantly exposed to the cool air.
