章節 2: Chapter 2: Cannon fodder
That night, Wei Yi Yi experienced the hellish torture of the medicine exclusively made from the ancient times.
'It's so freaking bitter!'
She struggled for her dear life and as the little servant girl finally run out of patience; the whole content was forcefully shoved on her mouth.
'Where the heck did this girl get all that strength?!'
Cursing at the ceiling, she swears her soul flew out.
----
The next few days were spent on utter silence. Wei Yi Yi was stuck on her bed and stuck on drinking bitter medicine.
And she's having her withdrawal!
There's no gadget, no cell phone, not even a single sign of electronics. Let's not even talk about how there's no signal and wifi.
As someone glue to her laptop and cell phone the whole day, being transfer in this prehistoric place is just asking to be slowly killed!
Fudge, why are other people who transmigrate easily adapted to their new environment? By this time they're already plotting or testing their skill and here she is feeling so uncomfortable, she can't sit well. She scratched here then she scratched there but the itch won't go away.
It's like, she have this void that cannot be filled anymore.
Tsk. So boring! She's bedridden for days and yet that cheap father of hers has yet to spare her some attention and entertain her. Isn't the owner the most precious pearl for this father?
'Come ah, come. Fulfill this brother curiosity and satisfy this boredom. This one is dying, I tell you!'
"Your Ladyship...."
Tang Mei was worried while attending her mistress. Saying that she can't stay still in bed is an understatement. All that's left to do is to roll and fall down.
"Umm… Can you get me something to read, please?" Wei Yi Yi, left with no choice, decide to temporarily settle down to whatever this era can offer.
The little girl showed a shocked expression on her face. After lagging for a few seconds, she did a customary bow then left to follow her orders.
As a proud binge reader, having a few books is not enough and so, not long after it seems like a whole library was transfer to Wei Yi Yi's chamber.
Suddenly, everyone jolted awake when a eunuch shouted from the top of his lungs, "The emperor arrived!"
As for Wei Yi Yi, it was like a lightning struck her.
'What 'emperor'?! Hey hey, please wait, what setting is this exactly? Do you believe that I can spend the rest of my life inside this room? She's already married?! Father, how could you give up this 'daughter' so fast?! I thought you were persuading 'me' not to marry!'
A man directly strode to the door. He was wearing majestic robes with realistic embroideries showing his status. As for what status and their meaning, Wei Yi Yi swears a zero score on the quiz.
Before she can even cast her curios gaze towards the new guest, Wei Yi Yi whole body shouldered in his presence. Her breathe shorten and she gasped for air as her heart wildly knocked against her chest. Throwing caution to the wind, she let her instinct take over. This moment of freedom allowed her body to perform the movements it was most familiar with.
Wei Yi Yi struggled to get up to acknowledge the person in front and rigidly perform an appropriate greeting.
As if the bloods on her face are being drain, Jiang Yu witnessed his empress pales. When she struggled to get up to perform a curtsey he extends a hand to stop her.
"Forgo the courtesy," he said.
When the man reached a hand so close to her, suddenly, in her mind, that man's touch is the very manifestation of fire itself. One graze with her skin and she'll burn to ashes. Wei Yi Yi heard a snapping sound deep inside her head. The mental image become overwhelming for her, her body lost all control.
Like some madman, she shriek so loud the whole palace jolted. She struggled and scrambled just to get away from that touch.
Wei Yi Yi broke in cold sweats and stumble down back to the bed. Seeing that man, a face suddenly so familiar yet so foreign to her at the same time, her emotion was set into a roller coaster. She can't stop her body's reaction it and it bloody hurt.
"No more… No more..." Wei Yi Yi cried out, her hands trembling nonstop.
An incredible heartache assaulted her, squeezing her heart tightly. The endless cries that she couldn't stop turned her nerves numb and finally, her sobs turned into panic breathing.
Seeing the empress having such a big reaction scared all maid and eunuch, weak on their knee, they all kneeled down and did their best to merge as one with the background. They dare not look up and see the emperor's darkening face.
Wei Yi Yi greedily inhaled. She chocked by her own tears and breathing become even more difficult. No matter how much she talked herself into calming down, it was of no use. The emperor stood in his original position--- Jiang Yu clenched and unclenched the hand that he extended just now.
After a while, as if he couldn't look anymore, he sighed and shouted, "Call for the imperial doctor!" then, with a flick of his sleeves, he left impatiently.
Everyone remained kneeling while Tang Mei immediately run and called out for a doctor.
'What the fudge, don't leave a panicking patient ok?!'
With a hand clutching on her lapels, Wei Yi Yi lamented her new life.
-----
"Help massage the empress to calm her."
After thanking the imperial doctor, Tang Mei returned to her mistress side and dare not leave. After that powerful surge of emotion, Wei Yi Yi slept till the next day. Even so, her fever came back in the midnight, thus, her sentence on the bed extended.
When she finally regained her strength, she spent her day cursing to every vase or pot she saw inside her room, and then to the sky, to the moon, and to every single thing she set her eyes on.
'Damn girl actually go and dare be a cannon fodder! A third party!--- No, wait, 'Wei Yi Yi' is the wife and empress.'
She took back her early statement, this girl and she has similarities. No wonder she was unable to survive this freaking era.
'Why take me ah! With our similarity, I can't survive too."
With her heart set on stone, she dared marry a prince struggling for the throne. Her whole youth spend on courting this snob who has his true love.
'True love, alright?! I'll give you 15/10 for your guts on going against that! Negative ten for logic though!'
'Sis this one spends all her youth being one of the boys. I can't survive this pit you jump on willingly!'
