The Employed Empress 54 Chapter 54: Boss Is Dumped?!

Some servant runs off to fetch their own mistress a change of clothes while the rest help the concubines to follow after the Empress.

Once she took a step, Shen Nian Zhen grunts out in pain. Wei Yi Yi instinctively reacts to the sound and reach out a hand.

"What's wrong?" The Empress asked in a soft voice. She bent down to check and saw that Shen s.h.i.+'s ankle is swollen. Did she twist her foot? It must be when she helped Feng Lei and end up falling too. "Let me car--- "

Wei Yi Yi was met with Tang Mei disapproving looks. She even humps at her and turns her head sideways.

"Hold your mistress carefully." The Empress dodge the awkward situation.

"Many thanks for your majesty's concern." The imperial consort is as proper as always. She raises her sleeve to cover her soft and meager smile.

Feng Lei crunch her brows and direct an unhappy look towards Shen Nian Zhen.

'So stubborn yet with no backbone!'

Perceiving her message, the imperial consort helplessly shook her head.

'Give it a rest.'

It only made Feng Lei grumpy, she glares at the empress show favor towards the injured Shen Nian Zhen.

'Always talking about how one should not step out of her bounds but happily cuddle up to the Empress!'

The moment Jiang Yu came to the scene, No one was there. He was then told to go to the Xian Feng Palace by a servant left by Wei Yi Yi.

The servant hastily informs him of what occurred. He then thought; it must be worse than just falling to the water. Else, why would Wei Yi Yi call for help?

No one was talking in front of the Empress. All four of them have a different expression on their face with a pursed of their lips.

There's no rush. Wei Yi Yi could watch them be stubborn for the whole day. Everything will be solved quickly once they come to the realization of how childish they acted.

The Empress underestimate a woman's ability to make matter worse. The very moment that the eunuch shout, 'the emperor has arrived,' as if magic, tears flow like waterworks from the three concubines.

Wei Yi Yi gape at them.

"What happened here?" Jiang Yu was also taken aback by the noise.

"My Emperor! Look! Look at my face! They ruined my face! All of them are in cahoots with each other!"

"Wuwuwuwu (crying)! Mei Fan doesn't know! Don't know. Older sister just grabs me and throw me to the pond."

"Che-- chenqie was just trying to help the sisters..."

"Tsk."

The empress chocked on her calming tea. Echoing each other, they talk fast and then louder; it's like they have a contest of who could produce more tears.

In her eyes, she understood 'blah blah blah'.

Someone just injected drugs into dead fishes, ah!

Wow, is her boss presence that exciting?

"My empress...?" The emperor took his place at the highest sit, beside his empress.

"Emperor, Yi Yi have no idea. The four of them were already in the pond when chenqie saw them."

There's no way she's admitting on being a witness! It was too late when she found them, there was no stopping, ok?

Jiang Yu swept his gaze towards the four. Their clothes are warm and they look presentable. If you ignore their cries, everything looks in order than he expected.

Just like how lovers are, Jiang Yu eyes search and rest on Ye Ai Ning. Even in a crowd, she'll be able to take away his eyes, what more of a room with just a number of people. "Imperial n.o.ble Consort Ye, tell Zhen what happened?"

A soft tone slips on the emperor's tongue when he called out 'Ye'. Wei Yi Yi suddenly regretted her impulse action. All that echo in her head that time is Jiang Yu's promise of 'I'll take care of it for you,'.

How do I put it? No matter what the situation, one must take their lover's side. Scolding happens inside at home, but outside, it's both of you against the world.

Jiang Yu taking Ye Ai Ning's side is something she expects, but they are at work and she just asked Jiang Yu to solve the company's issue. No--- wait, this is his home too!

Holy fondue! The job's all jumbled up now. Where's south and where's north?!

Complains are complains. The world continues. Ye Ai Ning schemes wouldn't stop just for her.

"I-- Ning'er has always been aloof and alone, afraid of what the other sister could..." Ye Ai Ning stop, her eyes distance, as if remembering something terrifying. Such sight feed one's imagination. Even Wei Yi Yi perks up her ears to hear some amusing story.

Ye Ai Ning directs a said look at her handmaid. A purple bruise was apparent on Yuyang's face. Tears glister the n.o.ble consort eyes yet again. "Yuyan was my only companion, always supporting each other, never leaving... but then they--- my emperor! It's all Ning'er fault. I took too much of your affection. I was not aware, I didn't know my sister's suffering. Emperor, Ning'er cannot afford your favor!"

Wei Yi Yi pointed eyes turn round. Even after giving her a hundred and one percent of attention, she did not get it! When did people start saying sorry for receiving love? Is she dumping boss?!

Feng Lei stood up, clearly not eating this injustice. "This is absurd?! What did we do? You cannot even say clearly it! Shen--- the other's are not even involved! They were a victim of your---"

"Silence! Have Zhen allowed you to speak?!" A quick interruption from the emperor silence not only Feng Lei but everyone, even sobs stopped.

"What are you saying, silly. Breathe slowly, don't be afraid, tell Zhen clearly what happened."

A quick change of tone and expression! How great! This could pa.s.s for an Oscar award. d.a.m.n, Wei Yi Yi does not have her phone!
