My Wife is a Psychic

166 Cry Harder
Jiang Xi shook her head at Zhao Ruifeng, then turned to Wu Tielong and said, “Wait for me outside the palace. Wait for my news.” After she finished speaking, she followed the head palace maid into the carriage.

Zhao Ruifeng thought for a moment and decided not to go back to his residence. He rode his horse directly to the palace to play chess with the emperor. He decided that he would chat with the emperor for as long as the empress was chatting with Jiang Xi. Anyway, if his wife was not safe, he would not have a good life either.

“Your Majesty, General Zhao is here again. He seems to be in a hurry. I’m afraid there’s something important.” A eunuch was holding a plate and asking the emperor to choose which concubines’ palace to go to today when someone came in to report.

“Alright, you may leave. General Zhao entered the palace at such a late hour. I’m afraid he has something important to report.” The Emperor waved his hand and the eunuch holding the plate left. After the eunuch went out and explained the emperor’s words, the concubines waiting for the emperor’s departure were all very disappointed. Since the selection of concubines began, the concubines in the harem would send people here every day to see which concubine the emperor had gone to. They all wanted to give birth to a son or a daughter before the new girl entered the palace. With a child by their side, they would not be afraid of losing favor. Therefore, this period of time was the best time. What was wrong with Zhao Ruifeng? He was about to get married, right? Why did he run to the palace instead of staying at home to accompany his wife?

“Go stand guard outside the hall and see when general Zhao leaves. Inform me immediately after he leaves. I’ll go and bring some sweet soup to His Majesty.” The concubines all urged their Palace maids.

When Jiang Xi arrived at the empress’ palace, she found that someone had arrived first. Fang Yu knelt in the palace, and an old woman knelt beside her. While kneeling, she grabbed Fang Yu and cried, “Young Miss, why didn’t you say you were going to the palace? If I knew I had to enter the palace, I wouldn’t have come in.” The old woman was crying her heart out, but no matter how you heard her cry, it did not seem to come from her heart.

“Cry. Cry as hard as you can. Don’t just cry. Kowtow a few more times. Perform well and I’ll give you more money when we get back. If you’re afraid of offending people, you can just leave Jing City.” Fang Yu whispered to the granny.

“Alright, don’t worry, miss. This is my specialty. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.” After the woman finished speaking, she began to wail and kowtow while shaking her handkerchief. She cried until her liver and guts were broken.

The eyes of the palace maid at the entrance of the empress’ palace twitched. Why was this crying like crying at a grave?

Fang Yu shrugged her shoulders. She knew that the empress, that vicious old woman, would not let it go, so she had hired an old woman who cried at graves to be her maidservant. The empress asked her what she had done wrong, so she would let the old woman tell the empress with her cries.

When the palace maid saw Jiang Xi, she asked her to wait outside the door for a while while she went in to report. Fang Yu also noticed Jiang Xi’s figure at this time. She had climbed out of the grave in a hurry last time and did not take a close look at her savior. Now, she felt that Jiang Xi was familiar.

“Your Majesty the Empress is kind, so she will let you in.” After a while, the palace maid came out and said. Only then did Fang Yu get up. After she got up, one could see the two balls of cotton on her knees. So, this person came to the palace prepared?

“Don’t speak later. If there’s anything, push it to me.” Fang Yu was a smart person. She knew that the empress had called Jiang Xi over to find an excuse to punish Jiang Xi. After all, who asked Jiang Xi to be a busybody and get Fang Yu out of the grave? Now, the entire Jing City knew that Fang Yu was not dead and had been buried alive. Fortunately, she was saved by General Zhao Ruifeng’s fiancee.

The old lady that Fang Yu had hired with a large sum of money also instantly stopped crying. She was very natural and at ease. When the group entered the empress’ palace, half of the lights in the palace were out, making it seem a little dull and depressing. The empress was lazily leaning on the soft couch. The palace maids behind her were gently massaging her shoulders, and some were kneeling on the ground to massage her legs.

“Sit, my heart aches when I see you. Sigh, Fang Yu, do you know your crime?” The empress asked indifferently.

A sneer flashed across Fang Yu’s eyes. The only crime she had committed was not fulfilling the empress’ wishes and not dying completely. The original owner had only seen through these schemes before she died, and as an outsider, ‘Fang Yu’ knew this very well. If her diagnosis was correct, even if she borrowed the original owner’s body, this body could no longer give birth. A woman who could not give birth could not become the crown prince’s wife.
