The Employed Empress 67 Chapter 67: Climbing Jumping to the wall

Tang Mei, who was busy trying not to step out of her bounds while the sixth prince is present, lost track of her mistress so fast her mind buffered.

She was stunned speechless. Can the sixth prince be trusted? No, the question is, can the empress be trusted to behave?!

Tang Mei have second doubts.

Although her Majesty likes to run about, she usually just kept to herself and smile lightly with others. The empress is lenient to the servants around her while she acts gentle and listens diligently to the consorts.

But then... when it comes to the sixth prince, Tang Mei would witness the empress small smile turning to a smirk. Wei Yi Yi would then proceed to bully her sixth brother-in-law.

Tang Mei would always get second-hand embarrassment from all of her mistress' tricks.

"Should--- should we report this...?" Tang Mei asked the servants who got left behind by their masters.

"Report exactly to whom?" Xiao Yuan Xi replied, his eyes moisten.

That right! Their mistress is the empress! Who else should they report to? Except for her, there's only the emperor! From the way Wei Yi Yi acts, it's easy to forget about it. That, in itself, is terrifying for they might end up making a mistake of disrespecting the empress someday.

Wei Yi Yi once again successfully gave her servants a headache.

---------

The martial hall is used by the imperial family when they wanted to exchange pointers with each other or with the nobles. To be exact, the martial practice hall is a decorative hall for the imperial family to use. The imperial guard have their own barracks to use while the rest of the army have their own inside the cities, the gates or at the city walls.

It is situated at the outer palace, near the palace walls. While is it rarely use, since the current generation of the imperial family is still young, it stored the best quality of weapons that the kingdom could offer. It was guarded and there are guards that would make their rounds.

Wei Yi Yi look around the seven or eight feet wall. There are no trees around that they could climb. At the top, the wall has roof tiles. Those could be grabbed, but the question is how to reach that.

"Can you climb? If not then carry me up instead." Wei Yi Yi said, still thinking on how to sneak in.

"Big sister, even when exchanging, a man and a woman should not touch!" said Jiang Liu.

Wei Yi Yi raised her brows, quite amused by his righteous tone. "That's too late for you to say."

"Also, I don't have the lizard's ability to climb walls."

Silence followed the two. It was a rare occasion between them. They end up sticking like a sore thumb, Jiang Chen looked at them worriedly. If they continue their stance, someone might come.

"Can you throw me?" Once again, Wei Yi Yi asked.

"Throw?! As in like throwing turtles to the pond?" Jiang Liu got shocked. His wild imagination goes to a separate road compare to Wei Yi Yi. And an extreme one at that.

Wei Yi Yi sharply turned her head. "Holy fondue! You throw turtles to the pond?! According to the animal rights of our constitution, that animal abuse!"

"What? Well, this brother did not... Or maybe I did? But I was only returning him--- her?... umm..."

"'It'. For things we do not know yet, let's call them 'it'." Wei Yi Yi generously helped him to find the missing word.

"Right, 'it'. This prince only brought that turtle back to its natural home."

"I see. Good. At least we're clear on that."

"En."

Jiang Chen tacitly listened to both adults. Seeing how easy they could distract each other, he could only watch out for them.

It was one thing with his aunt, the empress has talents on being oblivious at times, but even his sixth uncle? Who was born a prince?

Jiang Chen reached to hold his aunt's hands. He'll take care of her instead.

A moment later, Wei Yi Yi shouted, her reactions late. "That's not the point! Don't divert the issue! How can we play--- I mean, practice if we cannot even enter!"

"That's accusations! I did not divert any issue at all! Big sister asked and this brother only replied. I cannot do any savage act like throwing my dear big sister, please do not suggest such cruel things."

The empress pinch Jiang Liu on the cheeks. She does not know what he was thinking, but obviously, they're not on the same page. Maybe not even in the same book.

"Alright, alright. You successfully made your big sister desperate." Smiling quite mischievous, Wei Yi Yi instructed Jiang Liu. "Stand in front of the wall. Don't stand too close. En. That's good. Now, face to the side and try to reach for your foot. Hmmm. You're actually flexible. Try to reach the ground instead."

Now that Jiang Liu is in a good position, Wei Yi Yi removed her sandals and backed a few steps.

"Don't you dare move dear brother~~" Wei Yi Yi sing-song.

After securing a good distance, she starts her run-up. Coming almost in contact, using the speed and momentum, she jumped, step on Jiang Liu's back, then propelled herself up!

Wei Yi Yi got a good grief on the roof tiles. She pushed herself up and used her arms to secure her place before uncaringly swing her leg up.

Easy peasy, she's now at the top of the martial training hall's wall.

Jiang Liu was looking up at her, his eyes almost bulging out of its sockets! His sister-in-law made him stand on all fours; a very embarrassing position now that he think of it, then stepped on him like a footstool to climb walls!

"That's so rude! Big sister!"

Long author's note:

Hello! As you could see, this novel just had a gift feature. That means that this got contracted and will go premium.

Although not yet, the future chapters will be lock and could only be unlocked with SS. As you already know, the length per chapter is around 900-1200 word. In my knowledge, 200words = 1ss. And so, expect 5-6 SS per chapter.

This is a head up.

For those that will continue and will support this novel, thank you. And for the others, I understand, I'm sorry if this is sudden.

Honestly, I have insecurities while signing the contract. Firstly, the story is far from what others usually expect from a 'transmigration' theme. There's no face slap or any blood boiling scenes (maybe in the future. ehem ehem XD). Then, I also intentionally made my characters with flaws. Far from the mary sue type of MCs.

I got scared as others might think this does not worth the price that it will have. As you see, this is written to my very liking. The slow pacing is the evidence. While others will spend hundreds of chapters cultivating or making their MCs lvl up. I wanted mine to spend all those chapters cultivating feelings. You could go as far as calling it just 'daily life'.

I thought about it for about two weeks and then sign it. Sorry, I just thought to hell with it and take the chance.

Anyway, when will the chapter lock?

I don't know yet but I'll give you another head ups before that. Once the chapters goes premium, I'll change the updates to 1chap/day.

Thank you for reading and following this novel. You guys are the one who gave me this chance.
