The Employed Empress 33 Chapter 33: Buds, Sprouts And Roses

As a person who grew up inside the imperial palace, Xiao Yuan Xi work precisely and swiftly. In a blink of an eye Xiao w.a.n.g Xi was sold from merchant to merchant, almost erasing all tracks. Thankfully, after weeks of search, they found him near the border, almost smuggled out.

"Xiao Yuan Xi, why don't you kneel inside first. This empress shall pick you up later, ok?" Wei Yi Yi gave him the sweetest smile, if only Xiao Yuan Xi could ignore her deathly eyes.

"Pardon the intrusion empress, Imperial Concubine Su is outside and asking for a summon."

It's Su s.h.i.+! Another person that inherited a mushroom blood.

She let them ready the receiving hall as Wei Yi Yi personally received her. The moment she escorted her inside, the woman jump her!

"Big sis! Wuwuwu!(crying) Everyone says that his majesty grounded you in your palace as punishment! Didn't you just got a.s.sa.s.sinated last time?! You even got a fracture! Big sis want me to die of heart attack!" In private, Su Mei Fan copied Wei Yi Yi and throw away all protocol. When the empress suggested that they act casual, she dare not let go of the chance.

"Fan'er calm down first. Let me peel some fruits for you while you drank your tea." The empress talked to her dotingly and dismissed the other servants.

Who said that her majesty grow some horns and started to attack people? That Feng Lei was more incline to beat people! Everyone is just slandering the empress!

The more Su Mei Fan look the more her cry seems endless.

"Wuwuwu! I keep saying to them that only Feng Lei got punished but since big sis won't go out and mingle, they all think I'm lying! They keep on slandering you! Specially Ye Ai Ning! Saying that his majesty does not favor you."

The imperial concubine start to act like a spoiled child infront of the empress. But instead of getting mad, Wei Yi Yi simply reach to pinch her cheeks and laugh.

The little lady looks a lot more like dumplings than sus.h.i.+ when she cry. Her rounded eyes glisten as it gets watery. Anyone who looks would be moved up to their souls.

As a person who grew up with guys, she had enough with their rough edges. What handsome? Cuteness is justice, ah!

"Ok Ok, bis sis understand. If you mind them everyday, there won't be any end to your worries."

Woman likes to talk after all. They are full of emotions and pa.s.sions.

"Don't tease Fan'er! Feng Lei now lives with me at the Bai Yi Palace since she got demoted as an imperial Concubine. She owns the west courtyard so I see her everyday! Big sis she always glares at me!" Su Mei Fan complained. Underneath it all, she's informing the empress.

The empress is not favored, but as long as she did not go overboard, the emperor will tolerate her, respect her as his wife, and even protect her.

Her standing is stable, but Su Mei Fan have no idea how far the empress could reach. Does she even have trustworthy servants to be her eyes and ears?

"The wound on her face got infected and will be an ugly scar in the future. It was swollen last time and scary!" she continue.

Also, that woman offended many concubines while she's an imperial consort. If she attempt to get a comeback, Su Mei Fan will stop her at all cost! With her face, it's easy for her to act as a victim and instigate others to scheme.

Wei Yi Yi got shocked by the news. Isn't that a small cut? She got curious but did not ask. There's no way she'll dug her faults back up again.

The two talk for a while. Su Mei Fan 'casually' talk about the life inside the palace. In her story, she would bring up the other concubines and some gossips. She done all the talking while Wei Yi Ti listen patiently and accompany her.

Su Mei Fan got more encouraged when Wei Yi Yi never acted like she wanted to dismiss her. Thus, she acted more clingy.

"Look big sis! This is a perfume sachet that I made for you! Young sister did her best to embroidered it."

The gift was handed with a box properly. Wei Yi Yi desire to horde boxes got triggered. The workmans.h.i.+p in the acient era is superb as usual.

Inside, a red perfume sachet that's embroidered with a pink wild rose, was put carefully. It was obviously handmaid. The st.i.tches are not uniform and they bulge in different places.

Peeking at the cute and girly Su Mei Fan and then at the clumsy rose embroidery, Wei Yi yi cannot make the connection.

What is this? Moe gap?

Even the color scheme is screaming at your face!

"Does big sis not like it?" Su Mei Fan blink her eyes to moisten it.

"Of course not!"

Don't cry maiden, ah! You're going to add to my offenses! This bro got one strike!--- ok maybe two. But let's not count that. Boss is the one who raise the flag to that.

Wei Yi Yi pick up the sachet and brought it close to her face. It has a flowery smell but not strong. People cannot really judge a book by it's cover.

"I love it. Many thank Fang'er." she sniff it a few times more before wearing it directly.

Whenever the empress smile at her, Su Mei Fan want to faint over with emotions.

They meeting ended when Wei Yi Yi excuse herself. It was time to put another ointment on Jiang Chen.

Tang Mei escort Imperial Concubine Su up until the front gate. There, she gave Su Mei Fan a courteous salutation and thank her in her master's behalf.

"This servant thank imperial concubine Su for her good will." As a servant, Tang Mei have no place in their conversation, but her ears and eyes are open.

"No need for thanks Tang Mei. Take care of the empress with out most care for me."

Imperial Concunbine Su smiled childishly at her. Even her eyes turn in delight as she looked the more harmless and pet.i.te. Even so, Tang Mei step back in fear.

That night, Wei Yi Yi eagerly find Xiao Yuan Xi to see if his legs turn numb while Jiang Yu visit his beloved consort.
