After getting hit, Matthew no longer enters the palace.

Ji Wu Jiu looked for another westerner for Ye Zhen Zhen, this time he is a priest, also known as the western monk. This person is rather elderly, wearing a black robe without a belt, and wearing a rosary on his neck. His hair is very thick, almost like a sheep, and has a full beard, that covers his mouth. Seeing him will give off a feeling of "even if you did any mistake, don't worry the god will forgive", that's what Ji Wu Jiu thought.

Ji Wu Jiu forgive him for that, and introduced him to Ye Zhen Zhen. This person is not good looking if compared to Matthew, you have to focus in order to look through his facial hairs.

"The way he walks looks like a big sack that turned into a demon" This was what Ye Zhen Zhen's first impression of him was.

That sentence made Ji Wu Jiu spit out his tea again, and since then, every time he saw the priest he will think of the walking sack. Almost like a curse that can't be stopped.

Mr Beard is called "Mr Dou", this was how Ye Zhen Zhen calls him too. Ye Zhen Zhen actually likes Mr Dou better than Matthew, because he can read, and knows a lot. Ye Zhen Zhen especially like when they ate together, when she sees him trying his best to put food into his mouth without the food touching his beard.

After observing for a few days, Ji Wu Jiu found that Ye Zhen Zhen was satisfied, and he himself was satisfied about it, and thought that this would be the end of the case.

But, Ye Zhen Zhen thinks otherwise. Although she doesn't half a small chest, but her forgiveness isn't too big, so she did not forget that Ji Wu Jiu is a very self centered person and how he punished the innocent Matthew. Thinking that she must get her revenge this round.

Such a coincidence, the moment she feels sleepy someone gave her a pillow. These few days something happened, that allowed Ye Zhen Zhen to laugh at Ji Wu Jiu.

We must start the story few days back, when Ye Zhen Zhen's female family members are allowed to visit.

Ye Zhen Zhen's grandmother, mother and 2 other sister in laws entered the palace. Her third brother hasn't gotten married.

The old madam no longer cared that she was the empress and immediately hugged her and cried non stop. The other three woman followed and cried together, Ye Zhen Zhen's mother cried the most. They scared Ye Zhen Zhen, she don't know who she should console anymore, finally with the help of the maid servants they brought along, they finally ceased the crying. Then they started to chat.

Woman, when they gather together, they will talk about the usual, whats happening at other families and what not. Then the topic lead to the empress dowager's niece who got her marriage canceled. The lady is called Xu Wei Rong, same age as Ye Zhen Zhen, and was promised to another family's son, who knew that the news of the promise being broken, would be so near the wedding date some more.

"I heard that it is because the man's side got a deadly disease, and seeing that the wedding is near, he cancelled it to save Xu Wei Rong… .. " "What type of sickness did he get?" Ye Zhen Zhen asked..

"It isn't disease" her eldest sister in law said. "the man eloped with another girl"

"!!!" Ye Zhen Zhen opened her mouth in shock "really?" But.. if that really happened, the family would have kept it real quiet, how did others find out?"

"It really is so.. there is no wall that can block the wind" Mother answered

Ye Zhen Zhen closed her mouth and shook her head, "that guy really is useless, throwing his family, as well as dragging down an innocent girl with him"

"You should stop pitying others first, think about yourself, you silly girl" Grandmother tapped Ye Zhen Zhen's forehead.

"Me?"

"She is the empress dowager's niece, the emperor's cousin"

".... The empress dowager won't get her in the palace right?" Ladies facing this type of matter really is unlucky, definitely there will be people saying things, but if she is accepted to enter the palace, then the story would be different.

Old Madam Ye, with a worried face nodded her head.

Ye Zhen Zhen was abit speechless, trying hard to find the good things about the palace, why is all the woman trying their best to squeeze into here. Thinking that Ji Wu Jiu will have another pretty small wive, Ye Zhen Zhen was even more speechless.

If she can do something about it...

Matters concerning about taking new consorts for the emperor, the empress actually has a say. If she purposely stop it, even if Ji Wu Jiu were to bring in the girl, he can't give her too high of a position also. But before this, Ye Zhen Zhen still wanted to know how Ji Wu Jiu wants it to be, and as long as she acts the opposite way, then it would be good enough…

"Your Majesty, I heard about Xu Sisters case, a good lady, meeting with such an unfortunate fate, really is horrible" Today Ji Wu Jiu came to Kun Ning Palace to check on the well being of the disabled person and heard this question coming out from Ye Zhen Zhen.

"She is elder than you by two months" Ji Wu Jiu replied slowly, while cooling down his tea, vapor building up in front of his, making it blurry.

Ye Zhen Zhen unconsciously touched her nose, "that.. few days a go I heard mother talking about her, she is a clever and pretty, talented girl"

"This matter, mother has already mentioned to me"

I knew it! Ye Zhen Zhen eyes were rolling "then, what does your majesty thinks?"

Ji Wu Jiu placed his teacup down "This type of matter, the empress can take charge, no need to ask me"

"We are talking about getting you a consort, of course we have to ask for your opinion"

Ji Wu Jiu did not answer, and looked at her calmly, with eyes that seems to be able to see everything.

Ye Zhen Zhen is not good with going around the bushes, and felt abit guilty under his gaze, and avoided his eyes.

"She is my playmate when we were younger, quite cute, of course I would hope for her to enter the palace to keep me company. Empress, see what you should do"

Then she can't let her enter the palace. Ye Zhen Zhen thought.

Xu Wei Rong is Ji Wu Jiu's cousin, he did not have any brothers or sisters, so he is a bit closer with Xu Wei Rong, but their relationship would only be brothers and sisters. As soon as he heard he needs to take her as his woman, he will have a guilt feeling of incest, and honestly did not want her to enter the palace.

But, the inner thoughts of Ye Zhen Zhen he saw through, that is why he said the opposite. Thinking that, that silly woman don't even know how to lie, Ji Wu Jiu looks down at her.
