The next day according to plan, Empress Yan came out of the palace to meet her sister at the restaurant at the end of the market.
Xiao Wei had also returned to the palace after meeting empress sister Yan.
This time Empress Yan would sneak out of the palace, as she would not look her usual. Except like a man.
...Illustration of Empress Yan appearing as a man...
"I feel like I deserve more to wear this outfit than the one I wear every day." Empress Yan said after Xiao Wei helped her change clothes.
"Your majesty, you mustn't speak like that." Xiao Wei.
"I was just joking Xiao Wei. Already, I'll go now. You please guard the door."
"Okay, your honor."
Empress Yan nimbly walked out of Yue Ji's palace, she passed through several servants who were in the palace kitchen and managed to exit through the back door.
"Huh, it's pretty dangerous. But sneaking time with Yu'er isn't this difficult." Empress Yan muttered that she was now outside the palace.
Empress Yan then walked towards the restaurant that was at the end of the market in the capital.
It was only a few minutes for Empress Yan to arrive in front of that restaurant, as she walked quickly.
"I told you, these clothes are very comfortable. I can walk faster."
Empress Yan entered the restaurant, and went straight up to the second floor to meet her sister.
In the window seat, Empress Yan saw that her sister was already there enjoying her tea.
"I thought you were gonna be late, but you're already here." Said Empress Yan when she was in front of her sister.
Qing Hao Min looked at the person who spoke to him, his eyes instantly widened and the tea he drank almost spewed out.

Empress Yan patted her sister's back so she stopped coughing from choking on the tea water.
"Is it better?" Asked Empress Yan while sitting in front of her sister.
Her sister nodded, she looked at her brother who looked like a man. Of course he was so shocked that he choked earlier.
"Sister?"
"How, don't I look more handsome than you Min'er?"
Qing Hao Min did not expect that his brother would do anything beyond his shadow, completely making people not know what to say.
Seeing her sister just silent, Empress Yan hit Min'er on the head with the fan she was carrying.
"Aw, why did you hit me?"
"Stop looking at me like that, you'll be perceived as liking me by others."
Hearing that Min'er immediately looked around to make sure no one was looking at them.
"Sister, how did you get out in a man's outfit like this?" Min'er asked slightly whispered to Empress Yan.
"This will make it easier for me, and no one knows that this is me."
Min'er nodded, she didn't want to get hit again. He could only say what his brother said.
"So, why did you ask to meet me here?"
"A few more days at the palace will throw a party to welcome the arrival of the lantern festival. I'm sure concubine Ning will do something, because these few days she hasn't acted on me."
"Then, what's your plan?"
Empress Yan smiled meaningfully at her sister, then she whispered a plan to Min'er.
Min'er nodded in understanding, she smiled after Empress Yan whispered her plan to face Empress Yan.
"But, if he did a trap that made big brother harassed how?"
"If she dares to do that, then I will give it back to concubine Ning even better."
Min'er nodded.
"Sister, I feel like you've changed a lot. Did Emperor Shun torture you again?"
Empress Yan smiled "Someone will turn much stronger and crueler after passing through her death door. And I'm so grateful, because God gave me the opportunity to avenge those who hurt me."
"I see, whatever you're going to do I'm definitely going to support and help you."
"Thank you Min'er."
Min'er nodded.
Empress Yan took out a small ceramic glass and poured the tea into it.
"I want to see how the emperor will act this time." Said empress Yan.
"I really wanted to kill him."
"Don't be in a hurry."
Empress Yan saw Min'er as very affectionate towards her brother, but her foolish elder sister preferred to stay with emperor Shun.
"Let me protect this child."
Empress Yan drank the tea that was in her hands.
"Sister. Do you know, if the crown prince of Ming country has liked you for a long time?"
Pruuuut
uhuk
uhuk
uhuk
Min'er's words succeeded in making Empress Yan surprised and spouted the tea in her mouth.
"Sister."
Min'er tried to clean her wet clothes as a result of a burst of tea from Empress Yan.
"You, what did you say?" Ask empress Yan.
Min'er looked at her brother "You heard it before."
"Min'er, don't talk recklessly. He knows who I am, and it can't be that way."
"Sister, I know very well how a man likes a woman. And I see him always smiling when he sees you, he's also looking at you softly and emotionally."
"It looks like you've read too many storybooks."
"No, I didn't do that. I'm telling you the truth, brother."
Empress Yan was silent, she digested what her sister said. Empress Yan also recalled how crown prince Zhang had been treating her all along.
"Hahh, let it go. I still can't get involved with the crown prince's feelings. Right now, I just want to repay the people who have hurt me slowly."
Qing Hao Min suddenly felt goosebumps hearing his brother's meaningful words.
"Then I will look for the person who will help us carry out this plan, I also want to see their shameful faces." Min'er.
"Yes, you're looking for someone you can trust."
"Good brother."
After a moment of speaking, empress Yan and her sister separated.
Before returning to the palace, Empress Yan bought some food sold at the roadside market. Because when he came out with Xiao Wei, he had not tried all the food there.
Finished buying the food, Empress Yan rushed back to the palace through the back door just like when she left.
After making it into the palace, he immediately ran towards the room. There he saw Xiao Wei standing with anxious feelings.
"Xiao Wei." Empress Yan whispered to Xiao Wei's ear.
"Aaagh!"
"Sttttttt, stop yelling. It's me." It's me."
Seeing if the person who was whispering was Empress Yan, Xiao Wei instantly covered her mouth with her own two hands.
Empress Yan instantly withdrew Xiao Wei's hand and entered the room. After the brand entered, empress Yan instantly closed the door and locked it.
Xiao Wei saw Empress Yan lock the door.
"Hehehe are you surprised, Xiao Wei?" Ask empress Yan.
"Of course your majesty made the servant very frightened."
Xiao Wei was still clutching her chest as she still felt her heart beating rapidly.
"I'm sorry. Look, I brought you food."
Empress Yan showed her some of the food packs she bought before returning to the palace.
"Thank you, your majesty. But you better change your clothes soon, I'm afraid concubine Ning will come again."
"Has he come?"
"Right, not long after the noble left, he and his servant came and insisted on wanting to meet the noble."
"Then, did he break into my room?"
Xiao Wei shook his head "No noble, concubine Ning returned after a bodyguard came and said if his highness the emperor was looking for him."
Empress Yan nodded "Alright, now you help me change clothes."
"Okay, your honor."
Xiao Wei quickly took clean clothes for empress Yan, then she helped empress Yan change clothes and styled her hair.
Finished changing clothes, Xiao Wei also helped empress Yan store the clothes of the man she had worn while exiting the palace earlier.
"I prefer to wear the man's clothes. This head makeup makes my head dizzy." Empress Yan muttered.
Shortly after, Xiao Wei came to bring tea and some dishes containing cakes that Empress Yan had bought.
"Your majesty, rest. I'll massage your feet." Xiao Wei.
Empress Yan walked towards Xiao Wei and sat down on the long chair. While Xiao Wei sat on a small chair and took the legs of Empress Yan then scolded her.
"Xiao Wei, aren't you bored here?" Asked empress Yan suddenly.
"Your majesty, what has your majesty said?"
"I felt very bored and tired of being inside this palace. Moreover, I also have to face concubine Ning who always wanted to get rid of me."
"Your majesty, you cannot say that."
"Your Majesty the emperor also from the beginning disliked me, even the marks of his punch on my body can still be clearly seen."
Xiao Wei fell silent, it was true what Empress Yan said. There were a few traces of Emperor Shun's punch on the back of empress Yan that Empress Yan had intentionally let go.
"Your majesty."
"Xiao Wei."
"Yes, your honor."
"If one day I leave the palace, will you follow me?"
"Your honor, I've been following the tone since I was 10. You are the best person I know. So I will always go with your majesty."
"While I can't pay you like before?"
Xiao Wei lowered Empress Yan's legs and immediately kowtowed in front of empress Yan.
"Hamba please do not say that, your majesty, no matter what happens, even if you have to sacrifice your life, you will always follow wherever your majesty goes. Servants don't care whether the noble pays the servant or not."
Empress Yan stood up and helped Xiao Wei wake up.
"You're so good to me. Thank you Xiao Wei."
Empress Yan saw Xiao Wei's tears flowing and helped wipe her down. She felt that the real Empress Yan was really very lucky to have Xiao Wei by her side.
"At the party at the lantern festival, we'll see if we'll stay in the palace or not." Said empress Yan.
"Your majesty."
Empress Yan smiled "Don't worry, I'll protect you."
Xiao Wei returned to shed her tears. He felt unbearable and pity for Empress Yan whose life was full of pain.
Back when she was at the Qing prime minister's residence, Empress Yan was like an unregarded princess. They were more affectionate towards Qing Hao Min, the younger sister of Empress Yan.
After marrying emperor Shun. His life is more heartbreaking, because it always gets insults and blows from the emperor Shun.
"All right, let's eat the cake. I purposely bought a lot so that you would also come eat with me." Invite empress Yan while helping Xiao Wei stand up.
Xiao Wei felt very happy, because he could always be together with Empress Yan. Although he also experienced many unpleasant things while following Empress Yan in the palace.
