Chapter 23: Who the hell are you?

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be trying to release a bit more frequently the next week or two, however when January starts, due to full time work and school I will most likely release once a week plus the extra sponsored chapters! But, until then enjoy!

Eight more days until my birthday and Christmas!!!

Right when Feng Tingye's voice could be heard, Liu Yixiang's pair of eyes abruptly brightened. In her lifetime, this was the first time she has ever felt this grateful of Feng Tingye's appearance.

Feng Tingye looked at everyone. Seeing Liu Yixiang unceasingly try to hint at something with her eyes to him, his eyes had a glance of puzzlement.

Liu Yixiang upon seeing that Feng Tingye having a confused apperance, in the end could not help but grit her teeth with annoyance and spoke. "[Chen Nu] sees the emperor [Way of showing respect to the emperor], reporting to royal cousin, just now Consort Qing and [Gu Mu] were just deliberating about performing in the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility... a song... with the zither!"
[Chen Nu= saying I your servant. Different from Chen qie in that Chen qie is usually used by the imperial concubines.]

Coming as no surprise, Feng Tingye's smiling expression disappeared instantly. Following, with a light narrowing of his eyes, he smiled slightly. "[Mu Hou] and Qing'er being able to get along with each other, really makes [Zhen] pleased. But coincidently, [Zhen] came here today to find Qing'er to discuss some important matters. The issue of playing the zither will unfortunately have to be delayed. I hope that [Mu Hou] can show understanding and not brood over this."
[Mu Hou= a formal way of the emperor calling his mother]
[Zhen = how the imperial family says I]

"If Ting'er has some important matters to deliberate with Consort Qing, how could [Ai Jia] brood over this? The matter with playing the zither could be put on hold, the future is long [there will be ample time for this later], there is no rush."
[Ai Jia = I, me/ self-referring by a widowed empress]

Hearing those four words 'the future is long', the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Leaving no evidence of his small defeat here, he turned around and picked up Xia Yuqing. "[Ai Fei], [Zhen] has been trying to find you the entire day, finally I have found you. Let's go. Return with [Zhen] and lets have a proper discussion."
[Ai Fei = endearing/ affectionate way to call his imperial concubines]

Xia Yuqing watching Feng Tingye's smile that hinted his malicious intentions, her back became cold, and in a great rush began to struggle. "I don't..."

When those two words were spoken, Feng Tingye eyes became cold and similar to killing a pig stared at Xia Yuqing as if his eyes were the scorching sun. Directly causing Xia Yuqing to become like withering Golden Needles (type of flower).

"[Er Chen] [Er Chen = I, your servant (usually used by the sovereign in addressing himself when speaking with someone with a higher status than himself)] has some important matters to deal with, so I will head out first. I will come again tomorrow to pay respects to [Mu Hou]"

"Go, go." Seeing Feng Tingye's rushed form then seeming like he was carrying a chick in his hand, he lifted Xia Yuqing and hurriedly left. Zhang Sunshi couldn't help but sigh. "Like this they've left, what a pity."

Seeing Xia Yuqing finally being taken away, the silent Liu Yixiang by Zhang Sunshi's side quickly wiped off her cold sweat. Letting out a deep breath, Liu Yixiang overheard Zhang Sunshi's words and her body slipped out of her chair and rolled to the ground.

"Huh? Xiang'er, what happened?" Zhang Sunshi cried out in alarm when she turned to see what the sudden sound of activity was. Advancing forward intending to support Liu Yixiang, Liu Yixiang quickly shouted.
