164 Chapter 164: In Replacemen

"It's all good as long as her majesty is safe," Xie Yu approach with her usual calculated smile.

"The experience must be unpleasant for her majesty," Su Mei Fan sobbed as if just the very thought hurts her.

"Please, your majesty, take a rest. This consort will ask the servants to bring you some calming soup."

"That is right, your majesty. There is nothing more important than knowing that the empress is safe," Su Mei Fan wipe her non-existence tears. "Thanks to heaven that the empress returned."

Meaning, the empress is the victim here and as she is safe now, don't you dare make a big deal out of this to create nasty rumors.

Watching the show the two consort is putting, Wei Lian raised a brow in interest.

Turning his gaze over the other two consort, he saw Ye Ai Ning looking quite solemn. The murderous intent around her is leaking though.

Surely, she's not digging her nails into her palm at the moment, right?

Wei Lian snorted causing Jiang Liu to jump in fright.

Idiots might not notice but someone like him couldn't miss such obvious smell of jealousy.

The Imperial Noble Consort is not so smart as it seems. Giving a dead look upon the empress who might have lost her life just then is an obvious reflection of her attitude towards the Empress.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

She should take lessons from the consort beside her, Noble Consort Shen. They said this woman is a coward but at least she has the brains.

While she won't approach, there is a distinct expression of concern on her face. Not blatantly mixing herself to the camp of the empress yet not showing herself as an enemy, Consort Shen wonderfully place herself in a neutral stance. If she could maintain this position, regardless of who'll have the last laugh between the empress and the imperial noble consort, she will still remain as the respectable 'Noble Consort Shen'.

Wei Lian didn't know if he should say they are getting smarter or bolder.

His sister probably didn't think of it--- No, given her personality, she might have been blatantly ignoring them and closing one eye.

It might be because Wei Yi Yi have a tendency to shrink her responsibility or... No! How could that be?! Why would she give lifelines to the concubines when them getting smarter is bad for the emperor?!

Ah... He wanted to rumble but Wei Yi Yi is trapped by the emperor. Everyone is in different places as well.

Just as Wei Lian is in the middle of his dilemma, he caught Jiang Liu's shadow which towering over him.

Jiang Liu felt goosebumps as he perceived a vicious stare in his direction. He says that but looking at Wei Lian, his face is still as emotionless as ever.

"Wh--what is it?" Jiang Liu whispered.

Wei Lian was hit with an image of a grown-up bear guy shivering.

That image... is kind of earth-shattering right?

"Heh, You'll do."

'Do what?!'

Although they were whispering with each other, Wei Yi Yi radar picked up the sounds just alright.

"Why are you suddenly shaking?" Jiang Yu asked but Wei Yi Yi's attention jumped somewhere else already.

'Ah!! I wanted to turn around and see!'

She also wanted to tell Jiang Liu not to get baited by Wei Lian's face. That guy have facial paralysis and can't express much even if his life depends on it! Look at his eyes instead! That's the only expressive thing he has on his face!

When Jiang Yu suddenly sighed, Wei Yi Yi pulled out from her trace.

Dyem they look like idiots standing here!

"Ah," Wei Yi Yi said in a pained voice. She touched her head as she leaned over to Jiang Yu. "Chenqie suddenly felt dizzy, your majesty. The fatigue might be coming back to me now that I felt safe."

"I see. You ought to rest. This afternoon gathering, you don't need to do it," Jiang Yu suddenly said. "Xiao Lin Xi, inform all the madams and the ladies that it will be done on another day."

Wei Yi Yi as well as the rest: !!!!?????

Wait, you are canceling it all together?!

Boss! Don't do that! I'm sorry for treating it lightly! I'll do my work properly!

"There is no need to delay it, your majesty. Chenqie is still capable to host the furens after a short rest," Wei Yi Yi said anxiously. A 'meeting' is going to be canceled at the last minute thanks to her negligence.

She made trouble more than she could chew! It was a gathering where they could expand their influence yet she treated it silly.

"No," Jiang Yu gave an absolute answer that even she cannot refute.

It's not time for your stern personality to be show off!

"Bo---"

"Your majesty," Ye Ai Ning presented herself. "As her majesty cannot attend to her duties due to the unfortunate turn of events, please allow this consort to share her burdens and lead the viewing party in place of her. Chenqie is willing to do this much for the empress."

At that instant, pair of eyes turn into Ye Ai Ning, wanting to burn a hole on her.
