Chapter 199: Servants
When Si Ning was done eating to his fill, this ti he was careful enough not to overeat. He heard the announcent of the Emperor’s arrival when he was drinking an herbal tea which would help his body pains, he got flustered almost choking on his drink then he stupidly ran and jumped over the window barefooted because he wasn’t ready to face Xiu Zhicheng yet, Ah Dai followed and Si Ning was glad when Ah Dai dapped an outer coat on him, fasten the coat tight, the hood over his head and helped him wore his shoes when they left the Zhonghua palace premises. It was then Si Ning noticed the big bag Ah Dai was carrying, the bag that contained his clothes that he wore the previous night. He was so glad to have a capable servant that was always thinking ahead.
After arriving at the Jasmine palace, Si Ning noticed his wardrobe was now completely filled with the extravagant robes that were delivered to him and his eyes caught sight of the dark bottle of lube, it was quite funny to him that the lube was ant for him to prepare himself and not the way he imagined it. After sending Ah Dai out, he took it upon himself to adorned in one of the extravagant robes giving off the feeling of a mini-god that was ant to be seen and admired from afar. He was quite impressed he could dress so well combining light blue with white with a lot of gold chains as designs danging all over his sleeves, he made sure the inner robe was covering his neck to cover up the hickeys then he packed his hair into a ponytail which Ah Dai made a fuss over when he stepped out of his room.
Si Ning’s governntal work was sothing he planned not to do because he was in his honeymoon phase so he was just sitting at the pavilion sipping fruit juice while eating cookies, Yang Sheng was singing behind him just to make the environnt lively, he was singing in such a terrible voice but Si Ning didn’t bother to tell him to stop because he was so bored he wished that Xiu Junjie or Xiu Yuan would co around.
Si Ning narrowed his eyes as he watched the three Jasmine palace servants lined in front of him ready to serve him, they looked bigger, seed stronger, giving off the appearance of hidden bodyguards protecting him instead of servants serving him. He beckons for Xiao Pei who was walking up to the pavilion to co closer, Xiao Pei also didn’t waste any ti as he doubled up till he was practically bent to hear what his Master had to say.
"I have seen lots of historical dramas and if what I see is correct then I think the servants serving
should be the court ladies since I am now the Empress and not these n and the number doesn’t match up." Si Ning complained, his voice low. He doesn’t know all his manservants but he knew he had been seeing new faces around because his servants were now triple in number which was equal to the invasion of his privacy and he wasn’t pleased.
Complaining to Yang Sheng might give no effect because Yang Sheng had to follow the rules which ans Si Ning won’t see the imdiate result while Xiao Pei on the other hand gets a job done faster.
Xiao Pei was a bit confused as he muttered "Historical dramas.." Then he wore a straight face and said. "I apologise General but it is his Majesty that instructed that all your attending servants should all be male."
"What!" Si Ning hit the table as Ah Dai ran up to him, taking his hand to check if the hand was okay. Si Ning had finally beco the Empress of the nation and Xiu Zhicheng thinks he deserves was adding so macho, unattractive n to serve him, he sighed letting Ah Dai massage his hand.
"Your Majesty." Yang Sheng that stopped singing stepped forward with an inquiry face.
"I do not care about what his Majesty thinks, everybody out!" Si Ning ordered watching as the manservants bowed before leaving. Yang Sheng on the other hand saw that Ah Dai and Xiao Pei didn’t make a move to leave so he stayed. "Xiao Pei I don’t know how you will do this but fix the list of those attending to
and bring
so won." He said as he flipped his paper hand fan open. He was careful not to say ’beautiful won’.
Xiao Pei nodded once and left, Si Ning was already bored of the scenery he was looking at so he stood up and went to his study, he picked up the report one of his Commandants dropped for him and he started reading. He had no idea how he used to spend his days being occupied because now he was just bored. Reading the report while Ah Dai sat a few feet from him grinding ink, Yang Sheng making tea, Si Ning had never been so bored and after a while, he heard footsteps outside his door.
"Gene... Your Majesty, I have brought the palace maidens." Xiao Pei called outside the door.
So fast.
That was what Si Ning was talking about how he could have so quality ti looking at beauties serving him, massaging his waist and back. Si Ning nodded to Yang Sheng who quickly stood up and opened the door, it was stupid for Si Ning to wear his sexy look but he did anyway expecting to finally see so beauty as he raised his head only to see so macho won enter in a row. They were much bigger, muscular, and taller than him, the worst part was their non appealing face, Si Ning loved beautiful things and he doesn’t think he could allow these won beautiful in their way with stern faces to serve him.
"Your Majesty." The won chorused as they all kowtowed uniformly.
They even had deep voices!
"These are the won selected by his Majesty as your Majesty court ladies." Xiao Pei explained.
Damn you Zhicheng!
"Xiao Pei and Yang Sheng, I want everything back about the servants serving
before I beca the Empress, no extra people just the faces have been seeing okay." Si Ning sighed in defeat as he made a ntal note to solve it by himself.
"Your Majesty, her Majesty the Queen Dowager has arrived!" An announcent was made outside.
Eh...?
Si Ning’s eyes widened, the Queen Dowager didn’t make an appointnt and what was she thinking or doing but the real question was why she showed up unexpectedly? Si Ning was about to tell Xiao Pei to lead the court ladies out when the Queen Dowager stepped in, her face showing her disgust as she looked down upon the won at her feet. Si Ning nodded to Xiao Pei and the court ladies raised their heads then turned uniformly to bow down to the Queen Dowager before leaving the room. Ah Dai also left when Si Ning nodded at him, Yang Sheng made an excuse to bring tea so Si Ning found himself, the Queen Dowager, and her a court lady alone.
"Uh." The Queen Dowager grunted as a court lady that ca in with her bowed to Si Ning before she started to clean the position ant for her to sit.
Si Ning stood up and bowed. "Greetings mother." He said lightly.
"I am sure you recognized your mother, I am no mother of yours." The Queen Dowager snapped as she took her seat.
Si Ning forced his muscles to corporate into a polite smile. "What do I owe the pleasure of your visit? would her Majesty like....."
"Save it, My birthday is in two days and I want you to be in charge of arranging and planning everything." The Queen Dowager said.
Eh?
That was so shocking to Si Ning, over the years in the modern-day world, there had been males that rose to the position of being in charge of events and the Queen Dowager putting him in charge ans it was finally a way to make their relationship good and earn her trust but the ti was limited.
"In two days but that is quite....."
"What? You don’t want to?" The Queen Dowager raised a brow.
"I do your Majesty." Si Ning replied, working on her birthday might be the cure to his boredom.
"If you weren’t all over my son and having your wedding interrupt my plans then maybe you won’t be in this position of having to do a woman’s work." The Queen Dowager said. "Start work imdiately and I don’t want to see your face until two days." She stood up leaving no room for Si Ning to talk by raising her hand to stop him before turning swiftly left with her court lady.
