The women's side, which was already thrown into a frenzy, barely returned to silence with the appearance of the empress. Right back then, everyone couldn't wait to watch a good show and snuggled together while whispering. Much to their delight, Consort Ye didn't disappoint. The woman actually jumped at the pregnant consort! 

Are we in a dog blood drama?! Your maids actually turn to such weak willow sticks when needed?! One side cannot stop their mistress while the other can't even protect theirs?! 

Wei Yi Yi turned so agitated. No one actually stopped them! If she didn't come fast enough, she'll walk into a bloody crime scene instead! 

You think a show is free? Kneel! Kneel until you become cripples!

Sadly, you cannot underestimate the ancients for they were still your ancestors. They kneeled smoothly for Wei Yi Yi to see. 

"How could a lady's inner chamber be suitable for guests to enter?" Wei Yi Yi eyed them. Slowly listing their names in her heart. "Steward, lead them out."

Reluctance appear in their expressions. They were here to watch a good show, ah! One of the bravest elders spoke up,"Empress, we are only concerned about the consort's health."

Others echoes their agreement.

"Then Bengong will be sure to remember the sincerity."

They were shot down entirely. Who wants that sincerity?! All of them were a mix of mothers who have a daughter in the palace and those who want their daughter to enter the palace. Want to offend the empress? What, is your daughter powerful enough to face the empress? What her to return as a cold corpse together with a bunch of nonsense excuse? No? Then roll! 

After chasing out the gossipers, Wei Yi Yi confronted the physician. "Tell Bengong, how's Noble Consort Shen's condition?"

"Replying to Your Majesty, except for being…" The doctor hesitated. "...Frightened, the Noble Consort is of good condition. She's four months into pregnancy and the baby is stable. What she's experiencing---"

The Empress cut him off. "Are you a physician from the palace?"

"..." The doctor further hesitated. Trembling, he replied, "Y-yes, Your Majesty."

"Well, are your working ethics consist of announcing your patient issue? Aren't doctors taught of privacy? It is of no wonder that people like you are often 'silenced'."

Instantly, the man dropped on his knees, unable to utter a complete sentence, admitting his wrongs. Mama! The empress is so scary! No gentleness at all! Liars! 

Wei Yi Yi was yet englithen again. Four months! Long enough for a mother to know she's pregnant on her own. They are calculating towards a child that has yet to be born!

They must have thought she was an idiot! Thought that she was a pretty empty vase. Close enough, but this bro can still knock you out! Do you know how hard a vase is?!

Deep breathes, a pregnant woman must not be stressed. The baby will be stressed as well. Wei Yi Yi changed her tone. "Today is a good day. A new life is on its way. Doctor, Bengong still needs you to pass on the good news to His Majesty." The Empress waved at the servants. "Give rewards to the doctor and escort him!"


In this trip, Wei Yi Yi met her father, met lil' one's parents, and now someone is going to be parents. Did she forgot to look at the calendar? Why didn't she know that there's a parent assembly?

As for what she felt being in the middle of two women, it's comparable to a secretary trying to hide her Boss' infidelity but had too many tracks left behind, and now the legal wife found the pregnant mistress, which triggered a battle of who's more pitiful. 

There's a smell of gunpowder left and right, both started crying louder than another. She regretted giving them attention. They clearly wanted her to be their judge! Wei Yi Yi almost took her hairpins off and hand it over then instigate them to start. Rather than calming the two, it's better to help them stab the jerk. 

People, hear my words, this is the real reason why men have shorter lives.

"Someone, take Imperial Noble Consort Ye to her chambers."

Better separate them for good!

Ye Ai Ning heard the Empress and reacted fiercely. "No! I want to see the emperor!" For once, she thought the Wei Yi Yi might help her out. That having a common enemy made her hope.

Seeing her flustered, Wei Yi Yi touched Ye Ai Ning's face. The cold hand that was exposed to the chilly autumn wind startled Ye Ai Ning awake. "Some things currently held the emperor, you'll understand, right?"

Understand? It's always understand. She's actually not a patient person. When will she be able to express that to Jiang Yu? Ye Ai Ning cried harder.

What Wei Yi Yi actually wanted, was to point at her head, and keep shouting, 'Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!', and that important things must be said three times! 

But seeing her tears filled face, ones that were honest and full of grief, without an ounce of calculating reflecting her eyes, Wei Yi Yi cannot bare to. Not with the same face as Xiao Ai. That girl might have come late in her life but she treasured her regardless. Although that girl only knows how to treasure the wrong ones, Wei Yi Yi held her as dear as her 'brothers'.

"Ummm… Well, you know. There's an accident, yeah? A-anyway, I could call your parents?" Wei Yi Yi totally failed her attempt at coaxing, even making Ye Ai Ning cried louder. She started choking that Wei Yi Yi was beyond shock of what to do. When Ye Ai Ning disregard her caution to the wind and drop down, Wei Yi Yi caught her and fell with her on the floor.

This girl, who grew up in a polygamous era, certainly wasn't taking things peacefully. 

Ye Ai Ning have her own pride and her own bottom line. No matter which year, age, or world, reality were always cruel than not, and so people held their own set of hopes and fairytales.

Others might not understand, that just because they cannot help but live according to traditions doesn't mean it didn't hurt them.

For her, Wei Yi Yi has always been the person who destroyed her marriage, who rob her of what truly hers, and living a life she was supposed to have. Hating her was natural, justified even. For her to want her death, it was simply a reason of wanting what belongs to her back. Then what about Shen Nian Zhen? Another person trying to rob her? Then what comes after? Another one and then another one.

After blind hatred and self-righteousness, there's only bitter reality beneath.
