Empress with no Virtue Chapter 78

Ye Lei Ting told a very long story to Ye Zhen Zhen. After listening to this story, it felt like she has watched a very dramatic theatrical act.

She never knew it could be so tiring to listen to a story, by the end of the story her legs were starting to s.h.i.+ver.

Indeed, life stories are much more interesting then written ones.

“I get it, Brother Ye, please do not mention this matter to another person” Ye Zhen Zhen told him.

“Don’t worry”

After Ye Lei Ting left, Ye Zhen Zhen was left alone at the lotus pond, walking around in circles, her heart not calming down at all. After some time did only her feelings felt better, but then Ye Xiu Ming came and spoke to her “Zhen Zhen, I have somethings to tell you”

“Grandfather, please speak”. With the matter just now, no matter what comes out from his mouth, it shouldn’t be any worst right.

Ye Xiu Ming, moved closer. Due to old age, his straight back is slightly bended, no longer like when he was young. Looking at Ye Zhen Zhen, his eyes turns gentle, and these eyes will only appear when he is infront of his children and grandchildren. His lips lightly moved abit, wanting to say something, but it was as though as his lips was being held close by a thousand kilograms of weight, unable to make any sound. Looking at his granddaughter, she is no longer the mischievous girl but a married lady, an adult. No longer was she the little girl who will grab on to her grandfather’s legs to ask him to help her tie her hair. Times pa.s.ses by too quickly.

Ye Zhen Zhen noticed that her grandfather was only looking at her, and not speaking, feeling abit weird, “Grandfather, what do you want to tell me?”

Ye Xiu Ming’s eyes turn slightly red, sighed and said “Zhen Zhen, I have done you wrong”

Ji Wu Jiu has arrived at Ye Manor, the servant by the door does not dare to make him wait, so he immediately got someone to send words, while he brought him in. Right after he pa.s.sed the main door, he saw Ye Zhen Zhen and Ye Xiu Ming speaking by the pond. Ji Wu Jiu’s eyesight was very good, he still could see the facial expression of Ye Xiu Ming clearly, like wanting to cry, he thought that something bad happened so he ordered the servant to go back to the door, and he himself went to hid behind a pillar to eavesdrop on them.

He heard Ye Xiu Ming say, “Previously, it was me who sent you to the palace for pride reasons. I thought your status was prestige, and should be treated well. But actually to be a married couple, you would have to face your husband for life. Based on your personality, you would not like the rules of the palace. I should not have interfered with the fate of your love life, and ignored your feelings.”

When Ji Wu Jiu heard those words, he felt his heart got stuffy. What does this mean, previously when he was so forceful with the marriage, but wanting to regret it now?, Too late!

Ye Xiu Ming continued, “ Actually, your father also objects greatly to this marriage. He knows that you and Lu Li has grown up together and have a different type of relations.h.i.+p, and Lu Li himself is a good man, and matched well with you too”

Ji Wu Jiu got even angrier, what well matched! The only person who matches well with Ye Zhen Zhen is only him, Ji Wu Jiu.

“I know when you first entered the palace, your life was not easy, I have already started to regret that time, but what has happened, happened. I can only hope that you will be able to endure and get the fruits at the end. Although you might not necessary be able to get the love from the emperor, but to have one or two children by your side, and the head of the inner palace, as long as you can endure it then your life would be smooth. However, knowing you, you would still not be able to live happily. My decision still is wrong.”

No matter what he said, it still meant that he is regretful, after hearing those words, Ji Wu Jiu felt unhappy as well as lucky. Lucky you made a wrong decision, really good!

Ye Zhen Zhen answered “ Grandfather, don’t say it like that, fate has always been fixed by the heavens, if without your help, I would not be married to the emperor. He treats me quite good. I am the empress, and if anyone in the inner palace is having bad thoughts, they also need to think of their capabilities first.”

This sentence made Ji Wu Jiu’s heart felt happy. You still know that I am treating you good. Also… you are indeed my Zhen Zhen, the way you look down on others is really matching with me.

Ye Xiu Ming was still worried, “What about the empress dowager? Although Xu Family met with a bad ending, she is still the emperor’s mother, she may be able to harm you, and yet you would not be able to do anything.

“This, you don’t have to worry, I already figured out a way”

Ji Wu Jiu got curious, what is she plotting, therefore was hoping Ye Xiu Ming will ask her.

And of course, Ye Xiu Ming asks, “What type of plan?”

Ye Zhen Zhen answered, “I can’t tell you at the moment, but don’t you worry, I am your granddaughter, I will definitely not make you lose face.”

Ye Xiu Ming took a breath, “If so, I can leave with a calm heart”

Ye Zhen Zhen was surprised, “Leave? Grandfather where are you going?”

“During the days your grandmother is ill, I thought it over. Over these years I was engrossed in the worldly affairs, and has not really accompanied her. Now we are old, and not left with many years, why don’t I let my hands go and properly spend my remaining years. We are half feet in the grave already, every day we get is every day earned.”

“Grandfather!”

“You don’t have to advise me. I was not able to accept this earlier. I did not want to acknowledge that I was old, and was always fighting with them, fighting with Fang Xiu Qing, with the emperor. Actually there was no need, making myself tired. Each generation will come out stronger than the previous. Actually I didn’t need to get worried for others, now that we are old, we should be able to spend our lives together. I want to bring your grandmother back to our old house in Jiangsu, it is calm and peaceful there, the best place to retire. We will grow some flowers, have some birds, isn’t that a beautiful scene.

“But Grandfather, Jiangsu is 1000 miles away from Beijing, both of you are of old age, if there is no one taking care of the both you ….”

“This you don’t have to worry. Although your grandfather has retired, it doesn’t mean I would not be able to leave my life well. I have discussed with your grandmother, this trip we will bring along your biggest nephew. He is just 3 years old now, the most innocent period, when he grows abit older we will send him back here. With him accompanying us most probably we will not be lonely.”

Ye Zhen Zhen still wanted to change his mind, but he waved his hands and said “You don’t have to say anymore, now go bid farewell to your grandmother, after this we would not be able to meet for at least a few years.”

What he said was humble. What few years, most probably this would be the last time they can meet.

Ye Zhen Zhen went to meet with old madam with her soul lost.

Ji Wu Jiu was left hiding. Ye Xiu Ming was his teacher, although the both of them might quarrel in the matters at court, but there were no hatred between them. But now to find out that he will be leaving soon, Ji Wu Jiu felt a little unwilling, almost like he lost an arm.

In the end, Ye Xiu Ming was able to manage the court for so long, was because he was capable, and talented. Not something easily achieved by anyone.

Ji Wu Jiu did not want to rush Ye Zhen Zhen, so he left Ye Manor alone. The old people will be leaving, there should be more words that is needed to be exchanged.

Sure enough, Ye Zhen Zhen only returned closed to the evening time. When she returned both her eyes were red. Ji Wu Jiu knew what happened, so he didn’t ask and only held in his arms while consoling her.

Ye Zhen Zhen was an optimistic person, she will think about positive things. Grandmother was able to kick away the soul collecter by herself, was already very lucky, this time it was not a matter of life and death, her life in the countryside would most probably be enjoyable, as her granddaughter, there is still a chance for her to visit her.

After thinking through, Ye Zhen Zhen’s mood felt better. Then she remembered something and looked at Ji Wu Jiu “ Emperor, I have something that I am not sure if I should tell you”.

Ji Wu Jiu leaned on her forehead and asks, “Is it something you can’t say or something you don’t want to say?”

“I…… am afraid you will be sad, if I said it”.

Ji Wu Jiu’s heart felt warm. “Then, let’s wait till you want to say it, or tell me when you must say it”

Ye Zhen Zhen nodded.

Ji Wu Jiu, looked at her. Under the candlelight, from her after crying face left marks of redness at her cheeks, making her look like a peach.

This person, was nearly not his.

Ji Wu Jiu felt super lucky. He was someone who never believed in fate, however he suddenly felt that his fate with hers, was really meant to be, no matter who, also will not be able to break their fate.

10 years of doing good deeds will grant you a chance to meet, and 100 years will grant you to share a pillow. They must have been doing good for hundreds of years to be able to be such a loving couple now.

Ye Zhen Zhen found out that Ji Wu Jiu’s gaze was glimmering, she knew this gaze very well. They were speaking properly just a while ago, though she did thought about those things. She looked down, and started playing with her own fingers.

Ji Wu Jiu grabbed onto her hands, and placed her slender fingers into his mouth and was playing with them with his tongue.

The moment Ye Zhen Zhen’s finger was touched by his tongue, she s.h.i.+vered. This person’s technique is really getting more and more, how can he manage to think about biting her fingers.

While Ji Wu Jiu was biting her fingers, his other hand was caressing her lips. She understood, and accepted his fingers into her mouth.

He was looking at her mouth sucking on to his fingers.. just like.. just like…

He subconsciously moved his fingers, in and out. Ye Zhen Zhen was someone that was smart, she learn from Ji Wu Jiu and used her tongue to caress his finger. To her it was quite fun, like eating a lollipop.

Ji Wu Jiu lost it.

He brought her to the bed, while removing her clothes he said “Zhen Zhen, for you I have kept my body for so long, and not touched any other female, how are you going to reward me?”

Ye Zhen Zhen was giggling from his touch at her ticklish parts, “How would I know if you are telling the truth?”

He laughed a little, sweetly he said, “If so, then I would request my wife to check it for me”

Because, Ji Wu Jiu was not able to be intimate with Ye Zhen Zhen for a while, and he has lost his rationality for a bit now, and rus.h.i.+ng, he did not control his strength very well, and made Ye Zhen Zhen a little sore.

After completing the deed, he was looking at her awaiting for his praise, but who knew he heard her say, “Your skills has dropped”

“………”

Men, will never be able to accept those words. He turned her body around, and spoke next to her ears, “ You better not regret this”
