Back In Time (The Reincarnation of the Cruel Concubine)

Out too often

“Greetings, Your Majesty!”

“Who are you?” yang Jia Li asked when he found a new lady that he had never known his face.

The lady-in-waiting and her two friends bowed respectfully, “We are the new lady-in-waiting.”

“What does it mean?!”

Dayang Yue advanced to face the lord, “They are substitute ladies-in-waiting, Your Majesty. Every once a month, there is always a new lady-in-waiting that will replace the old lady during your seclusion. They were chosen directly by the queen mother and will change again the next month.”

“Why is there such a rule and why do I never know?”

“A-you never know, but you don't want to know.” Lirih the dayang.

Yang Jia Li again faced the three maids who had just arrived, they were still young and innocent. After being asked to introduce himself, Yang Jia Li finally knew the names of the three young maids. Lu Yi, Xing Yu, and Xin. The queen who was in exile also told them what they should not do and what would make her angry, annoying actually because they had to teach them again and again.

This life in seclusion actually went on like a slow pace, Yang Jia Li did not do what he should and again he was always lazing around. Dayang who was assigned to serve him was only three people, three guard soldiers, and one main lady-in-waiting, Dayang Yue.

“Then, you guys! Quickly make me warm tea, I want new tea, a gift from my father!” her word.

“Dayang Yue, show them!”

“Good, Your Highness.”

The three maids followed Dayang Yue towards the kitchen that was in the pavilion, they had to light a furnace and fireplace in order to cook and Yang Jia Li always felt warm. After being given direction by Dayang Yue, the main lady-in-waiting went to face Yang Jia Li again.

Xin turned her head to the right and to the left, “Has she really left?” tanyakanya.

Xing Yu nodded his head, “Iya, he's gone.”

“We should still do the day job as we should, while still mixing the powder in tea and food.” Said Lu Yi, “Do not get caught and do not make suspicious movements, we are only three here, if until the empress knows then she will kill us at that time.”

“Iya, we better quickly do our job.”

The three young maids immediately took to pieces lighting the fireplace, cooking, and the main thing was to prepare herbal tea for Yang Jia Li.

The water is very fast boiling because the firewood in the forest near Heng Shui monastery is quite flammable. Xin placed a series of cups that were usually used for tea, brewing some of the tea in a smaller teapot while mixing something requested by his master. A yellowish-white powder, very little, just a pinch because the message is so. They were also ordered not to drink the special tea that Yang Zuo gave them, if there were other imperial members visiting they also should not be given the tea.

“It's done?” ask Lu Yi.

Xin nodded.

“Let me deliver, you ... already .. “

Xin nodded again and placed her index finger in front of her lips. “Already.” Answer without a sound.

“Alright, then, I'll go drop this off first!”

The palace became quite calm in the absence of Yang Jia Li, all of whom were unhappily and harmoniously, Wu Li Mei often relaxed drinking tea with the Queen Mother and Emperor Zhou. The growing growth of Jiang Wu that was getting faster made them anxious themselves with the little prince, he could already tell mother and a few other simple words even though it was not too obvious.

“Come baby!” said Wu Li Mei, Zhou Jiang Wu who was in Dayang Yi's arms immediately stretched out to be carried by his beloved concubine mother.

“Sususu .. sus u suuusuu.” The mess.

“Hmm, do you want milk?” ask Wu Li Mei.

The boy smiled brightly, he played his feet wrapped in simple knitted socks from Wu Li Mei herself. “Sususus .. susususu .. “

“Dayang Yi, please bring milk for Jiang Wu!”

“Good, Your Highness.”

“How is he doing? Last time I heard the news, he was very thin while still in the concubine Ho pavilion, but it seems like it is now much better.” The Queen Mother watched carefully the boy who was playing on Wu Li Mei's lap.

“She's already much fatter mom.” Answer Emperor Zhou, “Together Mei’er, I'm sure he will be much better than before.”

“I'm sure so too.”

“I just do my best to take care of it, everything is also inseparable from the role of the ladies who nurture it wholeheartedly. Sometimes Princess Fang Yin and the crown prince also took the time to play with Jiang Wu.”

“Ah, so yes.” The Queen Mother nodded her head understandingly, “But, where did the two children go, I rarely saw them wandering around the palace.”

“They are.” Wu Li Mei replied.

“Where?”

Ah, right also, where were the two children because it had been two days since Wu Li Mei had not met them. Too busy taking care of Jiang Wu and the drugstore secretly, to make him forget to take care of his two dearest children who had grown up.

“The crown prince is very happy to hunt in the forest, and Princess Fang Yin is happy to ride and archery.”

Emperor Zhou gave an answer to his assessment of his two children who liked different fields, but that was not a problem. Because their educational patterns will determine how the two grow into great leaders. The emperor was rarely directly involved in their education but he observed from afar.

“Honey, looks like they're leaving today.”

“What is true?” wu Li Mei asked, she was busy with her little boy drinking the milk the ladies gave him. “Have these two days I didn't see them actually, did they go or how did I not know too.”

“Let Mei’er, they are already growing up, it could be that they are looking for something interesting in the city center.”

Wu Li Mei immediately looked up, right, the last time he found his two children leaving and it turns out he got a report from Lan Suo that his two children were in the market. Did Wu Li Mei loosen the guard too much, did this mean that she had been negligent? There should not be anything bad happening to the two, the crown prince and the imperial princess should not be leaving the palace too often.

“What they go to market?” ask the Queen Mother. “That's dangerous, they can't be recognized and get into trouble.”

“I'm trying to keep them from afar mom.”
