"Do you know why I told you that you're annoying." I said while looking at the two annoying girls my husband assigned to me and at the same time wondering why he personally picked my exact age mates.
I don't need this ..and even god knows that I don't want them! They can't do anything right and that Ji-Ae of a girl is not trustworthy, I know she has been in contact with Hwa and I learn this through Ae-Cha. The thing is ..I think they all are in this together _both Jiae, Aecha, Hwa and possibly her mother too with Sangyun.
They're playing me.
They're trying to scare me or make me react in a bad way ..which will end up embarrassing my husband in the process but I won't do that. I know they're angry because all of the moves they made didn't succeed ..I did send their implant that they disguised as a concubine home.
I need Jandi ..every plan I make scream for her opinion which always end up making me depressed as I know she's not here with me and these two girls that's standing in front of me are not helping ..it's like they sent them to drive me crazy.
I wonder what they're arguing about now and it won't surprise me if they say it's about my earlier question.
I want to let them off but anytime I tell them that I don't like them to be my personal maid ..they'll begin looking at me as if their world just ended and Ji-Ae will begin crying uncontrollable which always end up making me not to.
"Aecha, Jiae!" I called but they didn't hear me which made me call them again but much louder and this time they heard.
"Empress, we're sorry for being annoying ..please don't send us away ..please, I promise that I won't be annoying anymore." Ji-Ae and Ae-cha plead while kneeling down.
I watch the two of them as they plead while still on there kneels for almost twenty minutes but I still didn't tell them that it's ok like I always do whenever they plead for forgiveness. I know their knees will be paining them by now but I still didn't say anything ..I just want to know if they even respect me but somehow I already know that they don't. They're only still on there knees because of the Emperor and the very well known punishment that he will give them if they disobey me.
What hurting me is that they think I'm stupid. Hwa has been telling them things that she want me to know and anytime they're in front of me they begin arguing while spitting out what she told them to say so that I will hear her message in the process.
"Ji-Ae , why did Hwa call you this morning and what did she say to you?"
"Empress she just asked me to get her a cup of tea which I did ..that's all." Ji-Ae said but I know she's lying ..like i said earlier, they're playing games with me.
After a while of me silently looking at them ..Ae-Cha hit Ji-Ae on the head and begin calling her a liar after she turned to me and say..
"Empress, that's not all ..you see Ji-Ae said that Lady Hwa told her to tell you to come and meet her at the new building after she serves her the tea."
"Why would I do that?" I asked while looking at the two of them in annoyance.
"She said that if you want to know where your mother is buried then you should come." Ae-Cha said which make me take in a deep breath that I didn't know I was holding. Mother's body was found and buried? I didn't even know, they said it got burnt into ashes.
"What time did she say that I should come?." I asked while pushing all the doubt that this could be another one of their tricks at the back of my head.
"Now Empress, she has been waiting for you, ever since you called us in." Ji-Ae said.
"Ae-Cha, I want you to take Ji-Ae with you and go to Shilli, enter the Ying's compound then ask for Ying Jandi and when you see her tell her that I say that I need her back here in the palace. If she doesn't come back with you two inside this palace then stay there with her." I said and after a while as if contemplating what I just said they reply me by saying "We will bring her back with us Empress then Ji-Ae grab Ae-Cha and leave in a hurry.
