When Ye Zhen Zhen returned to Kun Ning Palace, Ji Wu Jiu called a doctor over to check on her, the verdict was that she got a slight heatstroke.
"Most probably you stood under the stand just now, you take a good rest, I will head to Yang Xin Hall to work for a while, I will come visit you at night" Ji Wu Jiu said, while touching Ye Zhen Zhen's forehead, and helping her cover the blanket properly.
Ye Zhen Zhen lazily replied "Farewell your majesty"
The moment Ji Wu Jiu left, she sat up straight, and flipped the blanket away, pulling a long face and not saying anything. Su Yue saw her expression, so she puts the medicine bowl down, "Little Matyr, what are you planning to do now?" She said, while walking towards Ye Zhen Zhen and pushes her back down to bed, and covering her with the blanket.
Ye Zhen Zhen turned her body towards the inner side of the bed, and continue to not say anything.
Su Yue asks, "Empress, whats wrong? Is there something in your heart that is making you unhappy?"
Not unhappy, but very very unhappy
Just now, the way Ji Wu Jiu looked at Hua Zhao Yi, was really painful for her to see. At that moment itself, Ye Zhen Zhen's heart was starting to heat up, and she felt really uncomfortable.
That type of anger, she cannot release it out. No matter what, Ji Wu Jiu was still the emperor, how can she point at the emperor's nose and call him a pervert. To backtrack a bit, not to mention that he can look at her all he wants, even if he wants to eat Hua Zhao Yi up, what can she, the empress say? She will still have to swallow the anger, and look at him climbing on to the other women's bed, and still at the next day she will be required to award items to the women thanking her contributions....
Thinking till here, Ye Zhen Zhen's anger returned, she has already said earlier, marrying a chicken or dog is better than marrying an emperor.
After her anger dissipated a little, Ye Zhen Zhen's heart was then approached by the feeling of uncertainty. Ji Wu Jiu is the emperor, sooner or later he will taste other women!
That feeling has always been around, it was just that she did not know how to solve the problem, so she was avoiding the problem, but seems like it cannot be avoided anymore.
So what can be done? Currently there are so many pretty and young girls twirling infront of him, he will only need to give a glance, and everyone will be willingly jumping into his arms.
Really it is too hateful!
Ye Zhen Zhen was sighing on the bed for a while, and suddenly felt that she really felt that the current her is really unlikeable. Thinking about how to fight over other women just for a man, while that despicable man would just smile at any young and beautiful women, what has she become? Today he can be gentle and thoughtful, tomorrow who knows if he will do the same towards other women.
Not worth it!! Ye Zhen Zhen thought angrily, he is not worth it. She will not be jealous because of him.
On the other side, Ji Wu Jiu who was going through his reports suddenly looked up, eyes brightening up. Putting Feng You De who was by his side on alert, thinking in his heart, who does the emperor want to target this time? In his alert mode, his ears was trying to listen to any movements, he did not hear any complaints coming out from Ji Wu Jiu, but only heard him spoke one sentence."Don't tell me, she is jealous?"
Ji Wu Jiu recalls what happened in the afternoon, Ye Zhen Zhen's mood changed only after seeing Hua Zhao Yi. Maybe, she felt insecure when she saw how pretty Hua Zhao Yi was? If it was really so, then he will need to properly console her.
Whether or not you are pretty is decided by me, there is nothing to do with what others say. I feel like you are the prettiest woman on earth..... from Yang Xin Hall, till Kun Ning Palace, Ji Wu Jiu was properly planning his script.
Ye Zhen Zhen was still in a mental mess. Initially she knew why she was unhappy, but till the end she ended up thinking about all the unhappy things that is not related. Su Yue wanted to console her, but did not know what happened, so she did not open her mouth. Her master was a kind person, and does not get angry often, although if someone really did make her angry, after playing a few tricks she will be fine, to be in her condition now, pulling such a long face, without speaking a word. Although she was still young, but her angry face was like a tiger, making people stay away from her.
When Ji Wu Jiu saw Ye Zhen Zhen, he smiled "Your anger is making other people happy, why are you doing this to yourself?"
Ye Zhen Zhen answered while looking down, "I am not angry"
"Still say that you are not angry" Ji Wu Jiu lightly carry up her chin, "take a look at your face, I can scare people away if I put it at the door"
Ye Zhen Zhen was forced to look up, but eye sight was avoiding him.
Ji Wu Jiu took a peck on her nose, and smiled, "If you keep acting like this, wouldn't you be afraid that I go look for someone else?"
This sentence touched her wound badly, Ye Zhen Zhen turned her face away from his grasp, and answered."Go ahead, you can go to whoever you want, There are so many women in the palace waiting for your visit, don't let me stop you."
Ji Wu Jiu got a little unhappy, he straighten his body, and coldly said "What are you saying now"
Ye Zhen Zhen replied, "The truth"
Calming himself down, Ji Wu Jiu pushed his harsh words away and said "I know you are jealous"
Ye Zhen Zhen purposely laughed exaggeratingly, "Your majesty you are being funny, how can I be jealous? We are officially married but don't think too much about it. I would not put my life on such a alittle thing...... I don't really care about it at all!"
Ji Wu Jiu felt that his heart was in deep pain. Suddenly he stood up, and stared at her. She really was not afraid of him, returning his gaze with her big eyes.
Ji Wu Jiu opened his mouth, but no words come out. Words to appease her could not come out, but harsh words didn't want to come out either. So after the staring at each other for a while, he turned around and left.
***
At night, Ji Wu Jiu decided to sleep at Gan Qing Palace. Ever since the war, he has always been at Kun Ning Palace, therefore Gan Qing palace seems more like a temporary living area. The palace was very big and vast, the bigger it was the quieter it was. Laying on his enormous bed, his arms felt empty, his heart felt empty too. The feeling of being lonely was slowly creeping all over his body. Subconsciously his hands started to feel the empty space next to him, this place should have a person, someone that would be easily fit into his arms for him to hug. Only then would he be able to sleep properly.
Ji Wu Jiu got a little anxious. It seems like he really cannot be separated from her.
But she purposely said those words, words that were like knifes cutting straight at his heart.
He knew her personality, if she really did not care at all, she would not appear this angry. That was why he cannot let out his temper, but although he knew that she was saying it out of anger but still he felt super sad.
It was time to teach her a little, to break through her strong walls, turning her slightly more gentle and thoughtful.
Although he meant it that way, but he still felt a little unhappy, and was unable to sleep properly at night. Hence, when he got up for court the next day, his concentration was not very good. There was a lot of things for him to handle as well. Ye Mu Fang has returned from Shandong, the water reservoir has been properly concluded, and can be used already. As well as the discussion with Nu Zhen, about sending Liao Dong as part of tribute has been concluded successfully as well.
This was all good news. However Ji Wu Jiu was still not able to fully concentrate so he handled it simply. He wanted to end the court earlier to look for Ye Zhen Zhen, but also felt that he should hold himself better, and have a cool down period from her. While he was in contemplation, the ministers started to fight.
It was none other than the Ye Xiu Ming and Fang Xiu Qing pair.
Fang Xiu Qing was recently working on a proposal to clear off and corruptions in the court, which has been earlier discussed and agreed upon by Ji Wu Jiu, this morning he raises this issue up in the court for everyone to prepare themselves.
Ye Xiu Ming's reason to argue with him was not because he was against the proposal, but it was that Fang Xiu Qing's plans were too aggressive, and might cause disturbance internally, which would be hard to rectify in the future.
The both of them were debating, with points that ended up till personal issues. People who studied before, really is different when scolding people. They were using proverbs only and any outsiders can easily recognize how talented they are in their studies.
Ji Wu Jiu who was originally restless got even more impatient, and ended up slamming the table, "Stop arguing, it makes others angry!"
The both of them stopped, and the rest of the people remained silent, unsure why the emperor is so angry today.
"You all, return to your office and argue there, after you get a verdict then only you come and meet me" Ji Wu Jiu said, while glancing through the ministers, "Is there anything else?"
Everyone took a look at the emperor's expression "Who dares, who dies", so no one dared to speak, and remained silent.
Hence the court is over.
Upon returning to Gan Qing palace, Ji Wu Jiu did not know if he should stand or sit, he knew that it was the best opportunity to teach Ye Zhen Zhen a lesson, but it was hard to fight over his will of wanting to see her.
At Kun Ning Palace, after a night of sleep Ye Zhen Zhen's anger has dissipated more or less. After breakfast, Su Yue saw that her expression was better, she slowly say, "I hope you will forgive me, but according to what I saw, what you said yesterday was really hurtful"
Though Ye Zhen Zhen was slightly regretting what she said yesterday, she also wouldn't let herself accept that she was wrong, so she remained quiet.
"How the emperor treat the empress recently, I know you are clearer about it than me. In my eyes, for him as the emperor to be able to treat you so well, is there anything that you are unhappy about?"
"You don't understand" Ye Zhen Zhen replied
"Yes, indeed I don't understand, but I know about one thing, what you are doing now, is pushing the emperor to another person's bed personally"
Those words hit the right mark in Ye Zhen Zhen's matter, her face flushed, so she looks down.
"Your majesty, even though I have not eaten pork before, I know how pork runs, what type of women does a men like? Of course those that are gentle and thoughtful, caring and dote-able. Infront of the emperor was countless nation problems, and in the inner palace if he were required to put up with your mood, even if he has the patience to console you once or twice, after a long period of time, no matter how deep the feeling was will also incur tiredness, why don't both of you be more considerate of each other, and you can dote on him too?"
Ye Zhen Zhen just only wanted to reply, when Wang You Cai announced "The emperor has arrived'
Ye Zhen Zhen stood up to receive him, after greetings, Ji Wu Jiu pulled her into the room and sat on the bed. When Ye Zhen Zhen looked up, Su Yue has already left the room, and there were only the two of them in the room.
The two of them did argue last night, so the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Ji Wu Jiu found out that what ever intentions or plans he had for Ye Zhen Zhen was long gone, the moment he saw her. He knew that women has thin skins, and would not easily admit, so he took the initiative to hold her hands and said, "Are you still angry?"
Ye Zhen Zhen shook her head, "No"
Ji Wu Jiu pulled her hands to his chest and purposely said, "What you have said yesterday has made my heart hurt for a long while. I know you don't care, but I truly care a lot"
Ye Zhen Zhen quickly replied, "No, I care, I care"
Ji Wu Jiu's heart felt warm, and quickly asks, "Care about who?"
Ye Zhen Zhen answered with a flushed face, "I care about you"
Ji Wu Jiu only felt that a feeling of sweetness was spreading all the way to his whole body, he pulled her into his arms and softly said, "I know"
"But, I don't like you looking at other women" Ye Zhen Zhen found out that since she cannot suppress this type of feeling, she decided to let it all out instead, "especially not willing to let you be close to them"
This type of words really made Ji Wu Jiu feel secure, Zhen Zhen cares about him, cares about him so much. Pulling her closer, he smiled, "in the future, I would not look at other women, and would not get close to other women, will that be fine?"
"That is hard to say, in the inner palace there are so many women, trying to get into your grace everyday. Are you sure you can control yourself?"
"Zhen Zhen, do you know, in the inner palace can fit a lot of people, but here, "he pulled her hands and pushes it against his chest, "can only fit 1 person". When a person has already been provided with spring water, which is so sweet and suitable, even if there are many types of water, there are merely tasteless and boring. Why would anyone abandon the spring water for something tasteless?
Ye Zhen Zhen, turned red all around upon hearing his words, "Really?"
Ji Wu Jiu smiled, "Ask yourself, if it is true?"
Ye Zhen Zhen replied "But I still think that they hurt my eyes"
Ji Wu Jiu sighed, "I also think that they are hurting my eyes."
Ye Zhen Zhen was only letting out her feelings, she knew that no matter how hurtful it was to her eyes, she won't be able to get rid of them, if there was a way she would have done it already. But to be honest, those women are pitiful too, therefore she didn't really want to cause them too much trouble too.
But, Ye Zhen Zhen suddenly thought of another thing, "If I cannot... get pregnant?"
Ji Wu Jiu was happy hearing her getting anxious, "Zhen Zhen, you being so anxious, are you saying that I did not try enough?" He said while starting to kiss her neck, hands moving downwards holding on to her waist, before lightly pinching it.
Ye Zhen Zhen was getting itchy by his actions, stood up, "you.... I was saying.... Something serious.."
Ji Wu Jiu started removing her clothes, while saying, the doctor said, both our bodies has no problems, for you to get pregnant was something that will come sooner or later, you don't have to be anxious, this type of matter would be best if it came naturally."
Ye Zhen Zhen still wanted to say something, but her mouth was soon blocked.
After their session, Ye Zhen Zhen was laying on Ji Wu Jiu's chest, taking deep breaths..
Ji Wu Jiu lightly touches her hair, and quietly say, "Zhen Zhen lets go see the lotus flowers tomorrow"
Ye Zhen Zhen lightly nodded but asks "Don't tell me you want to go see that flower lady"
Ji Wu Jiu shook his head, "she is not the type I like"
"Why?"
JI Wu Jiu did not answer, but only looking at her with a smile.
"No, you must like her, if not why would you keep looking at her yesterday?"
"I really don't like her"
"Why? She looks good"
"When we get intimate, the mechanism might turnover"
