42 Power (1/2)
After three days, the whole entourage went back to the capital. The imperial doctor brought a chair with wheels for Ye Zhen Zhen, can be sat on, and also can be pushed around, as well as arm rests, very convenient to be used. Ye Zhen Zhen like it very much, and immediately give him some gifts.
Today, Ye Zhen Zhen brought the rest of the court ladies too Ci Ning Palace to greet the Empress dowager, she was sitting on the wheelchair, pushed by Su Yue and the rest of the ladies followed behind her.
Ji Wu Jiu already finished his morning court, and was at Ci Ning Palace as well, because Ye Zhen Zhen's leg is not well yet, she does not need to perform the greetings, and Su Yue pushed her to her position. Chatted with Empress Dowager a bit and wanted to leave.
This type of thing, she has to do daily, it was rather boring.
However, today the empress dowager was treating her with much care, and asked about her injury in detail. Hearing that she will need at least 3 months to recover, she frowned and forced herself to show that her heart aches for Ye Zhen Zhen and said ”It is not convenient for you to move around, it is quite pitiful, to injure bones is not something easy to heal, you will need to recuperate properly”
Ye Zhen Zhen really don't what is the empress dowager acting for, and looked at Ji Wu Jiu for a clue, but Ji Wu Jiu just blinked without an expression.
”That is why before the you are healed, you no need to come here everyday”
”Thank you for your grace mother, but this injury is nothing serious, will just need a little bit more effort, I would not dare to lack in the greetings”
”Your fidelity I am well aware of” the empress dowager said and waved her hands ”normally you have to handle the things in the inner palace, it must have been very tiring, now you are injured, you should take this chance to recover, and should not allow them to disturb you over the small things. I was thinking, what not you let Xian Concubine take over your job for a while, what do you think?”
Ah, now we know why..
Ye Zhen Zhen guessed that the empress dowager would have such an act, it must have been hard on her to only say after so many days. She looked at Ji Wu Jiu, and found that he was looking at her as well, with a calm expression.
Ye Zhen Zhen smiled and said ” Your majesty, what do you think?”
”Since the empress is injured, she should rest”
”Since your majesty and mother are so caring towards my injury, then I will gladly accept, and take this chance to be lazy for these few months”
The empress dowager nodded and smiled ”it should be so”
”But”, Ye Zhen Zhen looked at Xian Concubine, ”the things in the inner palace that needs to be done is very complicated, I am not sure if Xian Concubine will be able to take it?”
Xian Concubine, replied ”Although I am not as clever, but I am willing to help your majesty to lessen your burden”
”Since you are not clever enough, I am afraid that you alone would not be enough” Ye Zhen Zhen smiled, and looked at Xian Concubine's change of expression, then looked at the person next to her ”Zhuang Concubine”.
”I am here”
”During the my resting period, you and Xian Concubine will work together” Ye Zhen Zhen said and turned towards the empress dowager ”Mother, what do you think?”
