Tang Mei was bowing her head at the side, however, her eyes are discreetly rooming around. Darting from the empress, then to the imperial nephew, and finally resting to the sixth prince before ultimately returning to the empress, she thought for once, that the emperor surely is amazing.
Just his presence and the calamity-producing-trio stop running rampant in fear.
Sitting so closely in a single couch, the three were so obedient the servants thought they were seeing doubles.
There was no tagging, no clinging, no crying nor shouting. They were not pulling each other"s clothes nor they were on the verge of picking something to throw.
Xiao Yuan Xi and Xiao w.a.n.g Xi are not preparing to separate them at any moment and Tang Mei is not filled with anxiety at every thought of someone spreading malicious rumors if they"re seen with such unruly behaviors.
For once, there is peace.
After a while, the imperial doctor came to take care of the empress.
When the doctor took out some silver needles with every intention to poke them into her skin, Wei Yi Yi immediately understood what people mean when they said, earth is h.e.l.l and the demon was reincarnated with flesh and bones!
"Calm down your majesty. This servant will perform acupuncture to heal your toothache," he said.
"I firmly believe that poking me with needles wouldn"t regrow my teeth!" Wei Yi Yi turned to hide behind her boss.
"There are many kinds of doctor so why it is always you?!"
It"s either he"s the all-knowing immortal doctor or the palace have a shortage of people!
"He has done this many times and is skillful with his hands. Be at ease and let him take care of you," Jiang Yu coaxed Wei Yi Yi as he leads her back in front of the imperial doctor.
Startled by the act of betrayal, Wei Yi Yi let out an "ah" as she looked horrified.
"How could you fail me, Boss! With your own hands, you actually deliver your faithful employee to the enemy!"
Ah, why are we required of medical certificate again?
Wei Yi Yi wants to rebel to the system.
By the end of the day, silver needles were sticking on her skin like she grew some spikes and she was made to chew some kind of willow twig or whatever. Wei Yi Yi"s way pa.s.s caring to what the imperial doctor is saying at this point.
After making sure that Wei Yi Yi has settled down, Jiang Yu then proceed to leave. On his ways, he took hold of Jiang Liu.
Pulling at his wrist then dragging him by the collar if it doesn"t work, Jiang Yu walked in the direction of the imperial study while hauling a crying Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu directed emergency signals at Wei Yi Yi. She replied by sending him a deadpan look that tells him to accept his faith as she did with hers.
Before making it far, Jiang Yu turn to look one last time at Wei Yi Yi. Seeing her carrying Jiang Chen herself, he said, "Where is his Momo?"
Xiao w.a.n.g Xi stepped forward. "She and the other maidservants were dismissed by the empress."
"Then replace them immediately. Don"t burden the empress with these simple tasks," Jiang Yu ordered and the young eunuch bowed in accordance.
Jiang Yu then turn his eyes to Wei Yi Yi again.
Wei Yi Yi, "..."
Jiang Yu coughed.
Wei Yi Yi, "????"
Jiang Yu pursed his lips wanting to say something.
Her boss kept staring at her, what to do? She needs the almighty Master Internet for answers!
Wei Yi Yi thought once and came up with unsure answers.
As she doesn"t want to talk, she raised her hand rigidly instead then wave an awkward goodbye.
"Pft," Jiang Yu chuckled then with his other hand, wave at Wei Yi Yi too.
Alright, she answered right. Although she has a few complaints, may Boss journey be a safe one. Also, please don"t get lost and end up in her office. Don"t trespa.s.s at night too.
Wei Yi Yi did her best to send well wishes.
The two stayed waving at each other.
"Will the emperor please let go of this brother first before you--- ack!"
Jiang Liu was close to be drag like a dead body on the ground.
Is this still a prince?
This time, it was Xiao Lin Xi"s turn to feel the anxiety. If someone saw, the face of the imperial family will be lost!
Jiang Liu actually lost it a few times by now but still, Xiao Lin Xi"s feelings cannot be brushed off. With the sixth prince, the walk towards the imperial study was full of dangers and challenges. When did it become so far? Xiao Lin Xi wanted to rush there immediately and hide away this outrageous prince!
As for the people at Xian Feng Palace, once they returned inside, the imperial nephew unexpectedly threw a tantrum towards the Empress.
"Auntie! I don"t want a momo!" Jiang Chen shouted.
Xiao w.a.n.g Xi almost stumbled by himself. "Wh-what are you saying, your highness?! It"s about the right time to a.s.sign a momo and a few maids to replace your previous servants."
"No! No! This prince said I don"t want them so I don"t want them!" Jiang Chen stumped his feet.
Wei Yi Yi pressed on her cheeks to put pressure on her painful gum.
"Yo--your highness please don"t be unreasonable. The Empress cannot always take care of you." Xiao w.a.n.g Xi wanted to faint. Why is his master being difficult right now? Although the previous servants tried to play tricks on him, still, in order to show power in the palace, it"s relevant to have a number of higher rank servants!
Jiang Chen slapped away the hand that Xiao w.a.n.g Xi raised to hold him. He swiftly tackled Wei Yi Yi and latched himself on her legs.
"I can take care of myself! Auntie do something! You must do something!"
Wei Yi Yi wanted to shout, "calm down little satan", but she"s already dying in pain. Also, include the pain on her thighs where Jiang Chen put his claws on into the account.
"The Empress cannot go against the emperor"s command." Xiao w.a.n.g Xi kneeled down next to them and tried to pull Jiang Chen away.
"Ow! Stop gripping!" Wei Yi Yi cried. She"ll remember to clip those nails away later!
"Then just send them away too, auntie! Send them away and then send them away again! Send them away until no one will come!"
The servants start to back away. Xiao w.a.n.g Xi starts to feel afraid of the empress" mood while Xiao Yuan Xi is preparing to pacify the situation.
Wei Yi Yi tried to drag her feet but Jiang just anch.o.r.ed himself in place and start shouting "no! no!" in a replay.
"Alright! Alright! Stop before I fling--- everyone lost their mind!" Wei Yi Yi pulled Jiang Chen"s collar herself in attempt but the child securely glued himself!
"Holy fondue, you don"t need a momo! You need your mom! Someone call emergency! There"s a lost child in here!"
"Auntie! You"re tongue slip up just now!" Jiang Chen pointed out.
