111 Chapter 111: Endless Chatter

Name:The Employed Empress Author:Xiao_yue
On the other side, Jiang Liu cannot openly seek Wei Yi Yi when she is being accompanied by the consort and thus, decided to stick to his royal brother."Last time, there was this really cold wind that kept blowing. It was so stubborn that I have 'no choice' but to bother Imperial Sister-in-law to take shelter. This brother caught her in the act with the imperial nephew! They were making this stick with a string and clothe attach! Can you believe it, royal brother?! They were plotting something and they didn't include me!"The moment Jiang Liu started talking, no one knows a way to stop him. He kept blabbering until the story turned to Wei Yi Yi daily hobbies of nothing. Thankfully, Jiang Liu is known to exaggerate things and she hasn't done anything that could shatter their morals yet and so, everything that scaped the sixth prince mouth was not taken seriously.Although this time, Jiang Yu found himself listening a bit more with attention. "If you see the imperial nephew's eyes as he guards the space next to the empress, you would mistaken him for a guarding dog! Second brother actually birthed a dog--- ouch!" Jiang Yu pitched him under the guise of their wide sleeves. But Jiang Liu only caressed his bruised skin before shooting off his mouth nonstop once again."It was actually a fishing rod. The empress like to make things when she could just ask the servants for it. I mean, what does the palace lack?"Wei Yi Yi really just want to pass time and so, she did a lot of DIY projects with Jiang Chen. A child was also a curious being and open-minded when discovering new things. Jiang Chen actively followed his aunt antics."Afterwards, after knowing what they are for, I personally escorted the empress to the imperial lake---"Jiang Yu suddenly cut off Jiang Liu. "The Imperial Lake? Why did you take her there?""To catch the Koi," Jiang Liu answered like a matter of fact. "And then the empress swiiingggg her handmade rod. This brother didn't think that a stick and some string could catch any fish but then the floating cloth attached to the string sink and then bam! The moment she pulled back, there's this big fish attached at the end!""Wait! Wait! You took her to catch MY kois in the imperial lake?! What did you do to the koi?"Those were his prized possessions! It wasn't an exaggeration to claim that just one of those fishes cost a few gold coins. The Imperial palace does not lack any artificial ponds, why choose the imperial lake?!That day, Jiang Yu prized Koi were eyed like prey by Wei Yi Yi. Her eyes lit up at the thought of fresh ingredient just within her home. They can be boiled, fried, steam or marinated. Wei Yi Yi starts to plan how to eat them each day. Until now, Wei Yi Yi has no idea that her partner in crime is already confessing their modus. This self proclaim comrade! He hasn't been tested yet nor torture but information is already soaring out like flowing waters!"Brother that's not the important point!" Jiang Liu ignored the grim look in his brother's face. "The important point is that sister-in-law is really good at catching fishes! And the stick is functional!"Jiang Liu already plans to drag Wei Yi Yi deep into the mountain and fish with her by the river. What hunting?! This prince like to stay idle and not compete with the old geezers."You..!!!" Jiang Yu felt a headache coming. If only he has an idea that his beloved empress set up a camp and fried the kois like they were in an outdoor camping, he might as well cough blood.Jiang Yu massage his temples. "Can you stop talking for a bit? Why are you unnecessary loud again? Aren't you talking properly with the empress last time?""Talking with Imperial sister-in-law is different.""How so?"Jiang Yu recalled that Jiang Liu is a lot more tolerable the past few days compared to today. He was even behaving properly when he saw him at Xian Feng palace."The empress would converse with this brother. But with the emperor, this brother needs to talk for two!"Also, if it's just the two of them, Jiang Liu could annoy the emperor all he wanted. He was not afraid to be scolded. But if Wei Yi Yi is present, he would need to pretend to behave in order not to be sent away. Big sister rarely let him join to play! What would he do if the emperor ordered for him to go home?!Thus, when in Xian Feng palace, one must act properly in front of the emperor even if it just an act.When Jiang Liu proceeds more to talk about his 'adventure' inside the palace, Jiang Yu remarked, "I see that Sixth Brother spends a lot of time with the Empress."Unable to pick up the underlying tone, Jiang Liu proudly said, "En!""Liu Wang have really been idle."Suddenly, the air around them change. Jiang Yu is sporting a really dark smile for Jiang Liu. Sweating furiously, his brain finally returned to earth and started functioning. "N--no. Just like sister-in-law, this humble brother just happens to like the scenery around the imperial lake.""Oohhh..." Jiang Yu sound unamused.Having a dragon for a brother is really scary. Jiang Liu would voice that frequently but he is one that is not afraid to touch this dragon's reverse scale."The Empress and I just have many fated encounters," Jiang Liu said. He even bravely bathed him with a pot of vinegar!As luck it might be, carriage after carriage of officials started to show up. Jiang Yu's attention swiftly shifted and become alerted.Jiang Liu was able to stick with his royal brother without suffering a loss. He turned to gaze where his older cousin left and smile brightly before following the emperor to meet with his subjects.
