No matter how freelance your work is, you still need to check the office from time to time. And so, after breakfast, Wei Yi Yi drag her heavy pheonix robes to come and receive the palace concubines for their morning greetings."Bengong haven"t see you Mei Meis for a long time by now," faking a coughing feat, she ma.s.sage her neck before she continued, "It"s such a pity that bengong has neglected you so much."
Wei Yi Yi ignore the bitter expression that Tang Mei is directing at her. She will remain on her stand that it is not her fault that their morning become chaotic. Jiang Chen is the one who doesn"t want to wake up. That stubborn brat should have expected to be dragged down.
Also! It"s not on purpose! Don"t you smell that? That strong mix of perfumes coming from this horde of female rabbits! It"s already a miracle I"m not fainting, just let me cough, ah!
"There is no such thing your majesty. Each day we reside in the inner palace is each day receiving the empress" grace." Imperial Consort Shen gracefully follow up with Wei Yi Yi.
With her fiery nature, Imperial consort Feng sarcastically spoke, "That"s right empress, if you put it like that then others will laugh at how us mei meis are unable to help lift your majesty"s burdens."
The emperor only have two imperial consort. These two are polar opposite. Imperial Consort Shen is graceful and elegant like water. Whereas, Imperial Consort Feng have an explosive temper like fire.
Obviously, they hate each other. One hating the other for her pridefulness and her thoughtless act, while the other hates her hypocrisy and her lack of backbone.
Remembering her job description, Wei Yi Yi immediately act as a referee, "You are all bengong"s mei mei. Seeing everyone in harmony heals bengong so take care of each other."
When everyone heard the empress, their eyes sharpened and become alert.
"They"ll take care of each other, alright."
The empress is instigating them to scheme each other and implying that she enjoy the spectacle that these clowns show her.
A place such as the inner palace, has long been lace with poison and torns. The women who are able to survive in here are capable of killing without blood. All flattery, actions, and word must be thought twice or thrice as there are traps within.
The atmosphere turn tense and the straight forward empress felt lost.
Exactly when did she ever failed on getting the ladies" good side? She only ever had one girl friend, but she has a lot of experience with her buddies" many girlfriends.
They never got jealous with her as she acts like a another boyfriend for them. Wei Yi Yi could even swear she"s a lot more of a gentleman than her buddies.
She knows what they like, give in to them, accompany them and never complain when they are taking their precious time. She"s use to taking them home too and since she"s still a girl, they could talk more about their feelings with her.
Why does everything felt wrong, ah! With just a few exchange, the atmosphere is already tense! Boss this is what you got for collecting a diversity of woman!
As she was complaining, a small eunuch whispered to her that Imperial n.o.ble Consort Ye came for the morning greeting.
Wei Yi Yi felt more depressed. A cat fight won"t happened right? I don"t like sending reports, especially report on "what happened".
"Let her in." she instruct to the small eunuch.
Just then a tall lady, adored with all kinds of jewelry entered the hall.
Ah, for a very long time, Wei Yi Yi finally looked at the lady"s face to memorize and identify it.
Imperial Consort Ye is a really elegant lady. She"s tall like a model and have a good posture. A mature body combine with a beautiful face. Her complexion is milky and white. She looks tender and clean.
Her pair of pheonix eyes contain a dark brown obs. When she blink, her eyelashes are like wings that are spreading. She have a small pouty red lips and a thin brows. A beautifully drawn lotus lay silently on her forehead.
She"s a beauty that could destroy cities, a beauty worthy of being the emperor"s most beloved consort.
She looked so much like Lou Ai Ning! Her beautiful, s.e.xy, and gorgeous "girlfriend", ah!

"Yi Yi, I felt like I"m not part of my mother and stepfather"s family." The girl beside her defeatedly talked to her.
Wei Yi Yi have no idea how an "idol" type of a girl knew a member of "go home" club.
Lan Zuang"s girlfriend have a history of depression, that"s why since the day she talk about her family circ.u.mstance Wei Yi Yi felt responsible for Lou Ai Ning.
Xiao Ai is a child from a broken family. Both of her parents have new family of their own now. As someone who have tender feelings for girls, Wei Yi Yi felt like she must give her a family.
"I have a small broken family but they"re really awesome. Why don"t you live with us?"
Ye Ming and the others might not be her blood related family but they are family nevertheless and she was inclined to give this family to Xiao Ai.
"You could actually have a girlfriend?" He Lian spoke to her from the second floor.
"She"s the legitimate child yet both her parents treat her like she"s the illegitimate one." Shouting from the first floor, she continue, "Also she"s part of the group now, not just my bestfriend. Treat her well or I"ll AFK in every match."
"Can you two talk without shouting?" Si Song shouted from the garage.

A sense of familiarity and relief wash over Wei Yi Yi only to be shattered the moment Imperial n.o.ble Consort Ye spoke.
"I see that the empress is still as lively as ever despite the emperor"s discontent towards you and here I thought you turn silly from all the neglect." Consort Ye"s face gives off a sinister smile as she spoke, "Despite a gra.s.s being a sore eye, it still have guts to grow inside the garden."
She"s speaking like a witch! Cut! She have the wrong script, ah!
