Report

I look at the near by trees as someone is following A-Jin.

Either it's from the emperor's or one of those bitches who wanted to harm me..

Though I'm also curious as to why there's no one guarding this cold palace.,

'Maybe that jerk didn't think much of me as his consort' I thought shrugging  as I head back inside to rotated the meat I'm roasting..,

As soon as it cooks up and cooled down I gave the meat to the wolves and patch their wounds with moringa oleofera which the only living plant I saw around

Then tear down the old curtains in this place to bandage it around the wound after I wash it with water that I got from the pond then applying the extract I got from the moringa oleofera.

Don't judge me as I got no other choice as I haven't found any other water source.

"This will do for now, you guys should rest up and regain your energy" I said patting the male wolf that he greatly enjoyed

After giving them something to eat the overprotective male wolf warmed up to me and accepted that I won't bring harm to his family which I'm relived since I don't want to be growled at every time I want to change their bandage

After that the whole afternoon I dusted and swept the place as I found a duster and a broom from where I found the wolves which made me sneeze multiple times

And I felt sticky as I sweat a lot from doing all of that to the main room and currently I'm looking for that well so I can take a bath already

But instead of finding a well I found a fresh water lake a little further from where I found the wolves

And with our further consideration I jumped in and rinse that sticky sweat and clean myself up head to toe.,

I decided to leave when I saw that the sun is setting down. It's cold as hell but I really don't mind it as I feel refreshed.

I can't imagined that girls from this era can't shower with out any assistance from their maids that's why that girl didn't take any shower since she came in this palace

I meet with A-Jin at the entrance in my wet state and she make a big fuss about it that made me send her away instantly grabbing the things I asked her, cause I can feel the presence of the one hiding in the shadows .

I also took note her light and dark bruises on her arms.

"Hey you behind those trees!" I yelled loud enough for that person to hear

"Be sure to send this message to your master, if anything happens to A-Jin in any possible harm again. This consort won't sit back and watch anymore!" I said glaring at where his hiding as I turned my back at him as I went inside.

While the one hiding in the shadows whose monitoring the young maid all the time with the order of the emperor

He felt that there's a sword near his neck as he shivered by just the glare of their empress consort

As one of the emperor's best shadow guard it took him by surprised that it took him a while to regain his composure as he head straight to his masters study to convey the message of the empress consort.

"Report.."

His master said coldly as soon as he arrived

"Yes your majesty " he said as he bowed

"The little maid servant took some of the empress consort dress and some blankets to the cold palace, along with some scraps taken from the kitchen for her highness dinner...." he reported but cut himself as his unsure on how to rely the message of the empress consort

While the shadow guard debate whether to tell it or not,

It got emperors attention as he sensed that his loyal shadow guard is hesitating as he put down his brush and look at the confusion in his trusted guard's eyes

"Anything else Feng Yun" the emperor asked that made the said guard to jolt a little

"Well... your majesty, her highness saw the bruises on that little maid due for being caught taking food from the kitchen at times... that her highness wanted me to rely you this message saying that if anything happen to that little maid servant in the future, her highness won't just sit back and just watch. Her highness also emphasized that she's the empress consort and point out where I am hiding" he rely what the empress said

"Oh, is that so..." he said interested in his report 

"Odd... consort Kim Li Ching knew that when someone is sent to the cold palace they doesn't have any foot hold in the palace or a say in the matter" Eunuch Fon said

One of the emperor's trusted men as they are childhood friends along with Feng Yun and Gou Shi which is the emperor's personal physician..

That is the reason they can voice out their thoughts to the emperor

"What will be my next course of action your majesty?" Feng Yun asked carefully, not to offend the said emperor

"Comply at what she wants and tell the kitchen to give that maid servant the meals that woman needs.." he said dismissively

"But your majesty isn't it not a punishment to the consort that you sent her to the cold palace?" Eunuch Fon reminded him

"Yes but still she's the favored child of Southern Marquis General Li Ching and the apple of the eye of her brother General Rin Li..., with those two armies combined our palace tropes would be nothing to their hundred thousand skilled soldiers." He decided playing it safe

"Hmm. You got a point there brother , though how sure are you that those won't change sides when they know what happened to Sister in law?" A man in light blue robe asked as he closed his fan

"As long as I got a hold of his daughter  they won't betray me with those trifles, Prince Idle Jun Meng" he said smirking at his eight brother's worried face
