Today as well, Wei Yi Yi hoped to be reborn as a man; a man that could top other men--- she meant a man that doesn"t need monthly visitation from auntie.Even across a different era, auntie is never changing.
No, it did not hurt like being sucker punched in the stomach enough to be sent to the emergency room. Condolences to others, but thankfully, hers is as normal as it could get.
Tang Mei also personally sewn the cotton padded clothes and prepared all her needs. It pretty much did the work that it was made for. Nothing to worry about.
But as a person who experienced technology and has known tampons, she psychologically rejects those cottons.
There"s an underlying trust issue between Wei Yi Yi and the cottons. It gives her anxiety for some reasons.
It has no promise of security.
Just in time, Wei Yi Yi was given a crash course on "anti greenhat 101", "tracking knock up dates", "how to know you are the father", and the likes.
The palace has a complete record of the concubines" aunt"s visitation, the emperor"s visits, as well as their health journals. She cannot even properly antic.i.p.ate her auntie yet they have a compilation for each of the emperor"s women.
Wei Yi Yi was in between making fun of Jiang Yu and amus.e.m.e.nt. The palace walls are so high yet they are afraid of it getting scaled.
After drowning in the emperor"s list of flings and evidence of his affairs, Wei Yi Yi felt the need to burn them. So spicy, ah! What about the concept of deleting message history?!
"Have the ones with sharp corners removed and replaced. Add more charcoal, incense and cottons to the consort"s share. A doctor will regularly check her situation. They are to obediently comply with his words." Wei Yi Yi gave Xiao Yuan Zi all the books to be tactfully buried.
"This servant will immediately have someone implement her majesty"s instructions."
"Xian Feng palace will not personally get involved. The consort"s palace has servants and a hierarchy of their own. Simply rely Bengong instructions, as well as have the related department pay attention." Wei Yi Yi narrowed her eyes with murderous glint. "Be sure to emphasize that once I"m done battling with b.l.o.o.d.y auntie, their work will be inspected by me."
Xiao Yuan Zi swore there"s an underlying pettiness in her majesty"s tone.
"As for Lady Shen, she is to stay in her palace until I say so."
"That… might not look good for your majesty? What if they accuse the empress of being jealous?"
"Imperial Consort Shen hid and lied to Bengong about her health. It endanger not only herself, the child but caused trouble as well. She is to reflect her actions." Wei Yi Yi put her clasped on the table, a.s.suming a pretentious corporate att.i.tude. "This… is also the emperor"s will. Anyway, if she"s smart, she"ll know that it would be the best for her."
The dispatchment her workers took the whole afternoon. By the first glimpse of moonlight, Wei Yi Yi sprawled on the table declaring abuse.
At dinner time, Wei Yi Yi faced Jiang Yu and wanted to cry tears of blood. Paper works suddenly felt the most appealing.
What trespa.s.sing? In fact, it"s nightly visits! Jiang Yu has been coming to her with the intention of having Wei Yi Yi perform her night duties. A graveyard s.h.i.+ft!
Now with awareness, Wei Yi Yi contemplated how she survived untouched until this day.
"The food will turn cold if you keep staring." Jiang Yu helped put food in her bowl. He paused when Wei Yi Yi remained still. "Do you not have an appet.i.te?"
Wei Yi Yi wince. "Code red."
"Ah?" Processing a bit, Jiang Yu reaction slowed down. "Oh... is it hurting too much? I"ll help you rub it."
Since when did you start understanding internet slang?!
No, that"s not the point. Why are you getting close in one smooth action? Scratched the "survive" part. Obviously, her tofu has been bitten bit by bit!
"How nice of you, Boss. But let us talk about a healthy, non-toxic working environment."
In short, please stop eying me!
Jiang Yu, for the good parts, was willing to sit down, be civilized, and talk.
As for the worst part, along with frustration, Wei Yi Yi would like to address the generation gap between them.
Like two troll accounts with opposing opinions, they talk about their ideals without actually listening. First off, Wei Yi Yi could not argue over that fact that every woman in the harem belongs to the emperor. Scary feudalism! And then, Jiang Yu has no concept whatsoever of clean break up. With an old mentality of there"s no friends.h.i.+p between two genders, explaining a casual relations.h.i.+p took all her patience.
Have a small infatuation and you"ll be s.h.i.+pped to marriage! Please note that many casual friends.h.i.+ps end up in marriage!
Tonight as well, Wei Yi Yi fought back and front with Jiang Yu to no avail.
For some reason, this guy firmly brus.h.i.+ng off the rejection. She wasn"t even frustrated anymore. Just done.
Jiang Yu let his guard down for a second and Wei Yi Yi went diving into the bed.
"..."
Rolling herself into homemade burrito, Wei Yi Yi inched to the very corner. One of her feet was prepared outside to kick Jiang Yu to the other edge of the bed.
An unfortunate miscalculation on her part.
Jiang Yu grabbed her feet and like a loving husband he is, helped tuck her in further. He didn;t give her a chance to wiggle away and topped her. "Yi Yi, is this secure enough for you?"
Since he cannot find where to start appeasing her, Jiang Yu was exerting effort to be more sensitive towards Wei Yi Yi.
In his view, she was holding up to put first her duty as the empress over her feelings as his wife.
Before, it was something out of her character. But now she willingly does it for him.
Jiang Yu accepted her goodwill, as well as helped calm the stirring ambitions within the palace. He followed her words and rekindled his good relations.h.i.+p with Ye Ai Ning, visiting her with gifts of luxury. Amidst his busy work, he walks around the harem and interacts with other concubines, giving them false hope of their chances. And at night, he solidifies the empress" position by staying at her palace.
"You!" Jiang Yu"s breath sprayed on her face, giving a tingling touch. It spooked her soul!
"Get off!" Wei Yi Yi bared her teeth.
This *ss ate plenty of guts! He doesn"t want his tintin!
