The Journey of the Empress
98 Stretching

"Ahh, forgive Grand Empress Dowager who used to dislike you First Concubine!" said the Grand Empress Dowager staring at the concerned First Concubine. While his loyal servants stared at the astonishment of the Jungjungan. They also had time to stare intensely at the First Concubine, afraid that one Concubine was planning something against the jungle.

In the heart of the First Concubine grinned at the servants of the Great Queen Mother who were eating them. You useless waitress, just look old Grandma could have eaten up all her foul wits.

But forgive this concubine who will rid old Grandma like you first of this world.

"It's okay Grand Queen Mother. Maybe you and the Queen Mother spent too much time together with the Empress.

So you don't know this concubine very well, which in fact isn't that bad." The First Concubine took Grand Empress Dowager's hand slowly before her.

"Yes, you're right. We always spend time with the Queen. Even all of our concubines were ignored for the sake of the Empress," Grand Empress Dowager said unknowingly saying she disliked Yie Er.

"Ahh if it's like that. Will the Grand Empress Dowager spend time always with this Concubine!" pinta First Concubine is hopeful. Flipped with his heart that was grumbling.

The Grand Empress Dowager smiled, "Of course the First Concubine. If that's what you want, now let's go for an afternoon walk in the garden of the Han Dynasty Palace!" invite Grand Empress Dowager to stand up from her seat.

"Thank you, Grand Queen Mother! This concubine gladly accepted your invitation." First Concubine stood up from her seat. He had stared intensely at his loyal servants who were smiling faintly, their plans so far had gone very smoothly without any obstacles.

"Let's the Grand Queen Mother!" the First Concubine.

The Grand Empress Dowager and First Concubine walked out of the Grand Queen Mother's residence, followed by their loyal servants.

The waiter who always accompanied the Grand Empress Dowager, looked at the astonishment of the Jungjungan. Not usually the Jungjungan want to be accompanied by the First Concubine whatever the situation. And now even they rarely meet the maid who always accompanied the Queen Mother. Because of his rarity Jungjungan they spend time together with the Queen Mother.

"Great Queen Mother!" call one of the Grand Empress Dowager's servants to vent.

"Yes, what's the matter Ming Ang?" ask the Grand Queen Mother.

First Concubine looked at the maid sharply, just be careful if the maid seemed to mess up her plans.

"Hmm... Isn't Grand Queen Mother always spending time with the Queen Mother today? Even the Queen Mother always stayed at the residence of the Grand Queen Mother" said Ming Ang glanced fearfully at the Concubine

First.

"Ahh yes, why can I forget.Ahh forgive Grand Empress Mother this First Concubine! we can't spend both of our time now. This Grand Queen Mother will meet the Queen Mother in her faith." The Grand Queen Mother stared regretfully at the First Concubine.

Hearing what the Jungjungan said the servants of the Grand Queen Mother were shouting in wonder. As far as they knew, the Grand Queen Mother was not someone who was forgetful.

"really?! If so we will spend three hours with the Queen Mother," said the Grand Queen Mother smiling happily as if she had forgotten what happened.

"Yes Grand Queen Mother" said the First Concubine who became their last conversation.

They walked hand in hand to the Queen Mother's residence, which was quite close to the Grand Queen Mother's residence without their loyal servants following. The Grand Empress Dowager deliberately told them to rest because they would also visit.

Every now and then the servants who had crossed paths bowed respectfully, to the Grand Empress Dowager and First Concubine who in this week always spent time together.

"Great Empress Dowager and First Concubine entered the room!!!" shouted one of the guards informing their arrival.

From inside the residence, Yie Er and the Queen Mother heard clearly who would be visiting.

Weirdo? Wouldn't the Grand Empress Dowager be spending time alone with the First Concubine?

"Suri's mother wasn't Grand Empress Dowager going to spend time alone with First Concubine?" yie Er asked astonishedly at stopping the knitting.

"Yes. But maybe they're just visiting, hurry up and finish your knitting!" said Ibu Suri still pokus to knit in his hand.

Yie Er looked at the Queen Mother at a glance, not usually the woman before him seemed not to care too much about the Grand Queen Mother. Usually the Queen Mother is always excited when the Grand Queen Mother visits. Ah she lost a little information, between her Mother-in-law and Mother-in-law of her Mother-in-law in a week.

"Suri's mother, this Concubine and Grand Empress Dowager came to pay a visit to your residence!" said the First Concubine smiled sweetly without realizing the whereabouts of Yie Er.

"Ahh First Concubine, Grand Empress Dowager. Please join! The Empress also visited the Queen Mother's residence," said Yie Er smilingly looking at the Grand Empress Dowager and First Concubine.

"Oh Empress, forgive this concubine who is unaware of your existence!" the First Concubine smiled with regret.

"What's First Concubine. Please join this Queen and the Queen Mother" said Yie Er.

"Mother Suri, may this Concubine and Grand Empress Dowager join us!" the First Concubine ignored Yie Er, choosing to ask the Queen Mother.

"Of course First Concubine, Ah Grand Empress Dowager please sit down! forgive your impudent son-in-law for not being aware of your existence!" the sarcasm of the Queen Mother smiled as usual. Then turned away his reluctant face to look at the Grand Empress Dowager.

"Ahh look at this great body of the Queen Mother!" said the Grand Queen Mother without being stunned, or did the Grand Queen Mother not realize there was something different about her daughter-in-law. But what Yie Er was clearly aware of was that, the Grand Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother clearly looked very different in this one week.

Without him knowing what the cause is. For sure only one person knows, with what happened between his in-laws and his son-in-law who is always harmonious now tariang. She was the First Concubine.
