Chapitre 28: Chapter 28: What they exchange for

As a person who safely reach adulthood without actually growing out of her childishness, when Wei Yi Yi face a real crying child, she's a blank piece of paper.

The Jiang Chen that she knew is an enduring child. He find him funny as the child totally failed on hiding his real emotion. Even when distressed he would call her many times but won't actually cry out for help. Wei Yi Yi never asked nor get involved. Jiang Chen is not her child to raise. She hated responsibility to add to that.

In her right mind, she would have send him to his real uncle once he started crying to deal with. Yet she didn't. And what vexed her isn't the fact that he's crying but that he refuse to tell her what's wrong!

Jiang Chen kept on crying and crying and asking for his servant to be return!

The sun have yet to raise but the servants are wild awake and alert. They dare not make even the smallest sound while serving the empress.

"Head Eunuch Yuan, you're here." Wei Yi Yi said with death tone the moment Xiao Yuan Xi entered her field of vision.

The way that the empress acknowledged his presence are polar opposite to the way she would always called out for him.

"Greetings to Your majesty." Xiao Yuan Xi kneeled submissively infront of Wei Yi Yi. Uike before, she did not ordered him to raise.

"Tell me, Xiao Yuan Xi, what does this empress instructed you?" The empress said. All this time, she did not look to any of the servants. She busily cradled the small prince.

"Empr----"

"This empress asked you properly to looked after Ah Chen!"

Wei Yi Yi immediately cut him off. He's voice is irritating to the ears! "And now you looked at him! Just what the fvk happened?! Why does no one inform bengong?! Is this the job that you offer!"

Everyone hold their breath. Even Jiang Chen flinch. Feeling that she's scaring the child, Wei Yi Yi hands him to a maidservant closest to them. The young lady carefully recieved Jiang Chen, afraid to hurt him.

"Empress! Empress please calm your anger! Thi--this servant was only thinking of your well being your majesty! Yesterday event must have frightened your majesty. Compare to that, what happened inside the palace is----" Xiao Yuan Xi was once again cut off.

"Is what?! Insignificant? A small accident?! Forget it, bengong dare not heard it from you less you gloss it over." Letting him talk, Wei Yi Yi hope for repentance, but what she received is a bull load of crap!

She does not need reasons! Everyone just reasons!

"Empress! This servant is loy---"

"You! Xiao Mo Xi, tell me who did this to the imperial nephew." She called out for the small eunuch that always followed after Xiao Yuan Xi.

Eunuch Mo dare not looked at the Head Eunuch. He kneeled obediently, "Reaplying to your majesty, there's a little dispute that happened yesterday between His Highness and Imperial Consort Feng's servant."

Little? Wei Yi Yi laughed from all the outrage she felt. She swear she started seeing red!

"Someone! Summon imperial consort Feng!" Wei Yi Yi ordered.

"Your majesty.." Xiao Yuan Xi tried to stop her.

"What?! You won't obey bengong?! Or it is that bengong must be the one to go over?!"

Wei Yi Yi took care many of Ye Ming and the others girlfriend. And she got rid just as many too.

Those guys would never hit any woman. And while she was raise to be gentle and understanding towards them, she could knock out one or two of those that act like bitches. And she would never let those type of woman touch her boys!

"This servant is begging you! Empress you're not usually like this, please don't do anything that might sully your reputation!" Xiao Yuan Xi said in one breath.

"Then how does this empress usually act? Indifferent? Oblivious? Do you think bengong does not care for the small prince because this empress did not settled old scores? Xiao Yuan Xi! Don't be mistaken! Bengong is the empress and will still be the empress!"

The head eunuch could only silently kowtow as his new found fear towards the empress intensified.

Wei Yi Yi might always gave way towards others. But that just simply because their actions, their desires, and their goals are different from what she deem worthy.

Their paths did not impact her life, she could live greeting them from time to time and proceed to continue her life. Just like acquaintance, or strangers even. Only a fool would insert energy on debating with a person you won't see daily.

She's not as indifferent as 'Wei Yi Yi'. She did take it as her job to take care of the harem. But her view of this place is as the same as her file of documents. She much work hard to arrange them, but they were not necessarily important to her.

While the Xian Feng Palace is coveres in dark clouds, the Bai Yu Palace that house Imperial Consort is just as rowdy.

Feng Lei hated that she couldn't ignore the empress summoning. She was force to dress up in a proper attair by her servants.

The maidservant from the empress palace keep on rushing them. The irritation was clearly written on Feng Lei face. She snort at the maidservant and refuse to even inquire what might the empress needed with her.

Following closely with her mistress, Shen Rou tactfully put a cloak over her mistress.

The maidservant carefully lead them towards the receiving hall. The empress sat on the highest sit. What greeted them is a deathly glint in her eyes.
