After Prince Idle read the letter the whole study room become ire quiet not a single sound can be heard.

They all know what the empress consort said was the truth.

But they all didn't expect it that she already knew about it, just by sheer observation

They also become wary at how he questioned the emperor's judgement and at how she wasted her fathers advantage by marrying a man that can't even take good care of her.

Every word in her letter was on point and critically hit the emperor that made him angry.

"Summon the empress consort right now!" He ordered in rage

"Brother calm down, Sister in law must said those things out of loneliness"

"Though her highness isn't wrong, Your majesty., since the two of you got married you never visit her even once, you even didn't attend to her on your wedding night" Eunuch Fon said

His the only one who can speak bluntly at the emperor if the later made a mistake, he was also the highest ranking scholar before his friend appointed him to be his eunuch and pioneer

"We can just give what Sister in law wanted, she do seemed to suffer a lot since she entered the Imperial palace as you only have eyes to your Highest Imperial Concubine"

"Plus her highness seems to be bored as she got nothing else to do. Since she already cleaned and repaired the whole cold palace. Teach her pet wolves tricks and cook for herself repeatedly everyday" Fen Yun said as he stood up from kneeling

"Wait her highness have wolves as pets! And she's even teaching them tricks?" Eunuch Fon asked surprised along with the other occupants aside from the emperor since he already knew about it

"Yeah, that's the main reason I can't guard her highness near the main palace with out her noticing cause those two wolves kept growling at my direction and at times with her highness entertainment she let those two chase me till I retreat" He respond down casted cause of humiliation since he can't kill those wolves or he'll be facing the empress consorts wrath.

"Two of them?" Gou Shi asked as they all focused at Feng Yun's mishaps with their empress consort's pets and totally forgetting that their emperor is upset

"Yeah. And for some reason those two wolves obeyed her highness very order, the two always hind for their dinner while her highness is the one to cook what every the two of them brought back and if those two didn't catch any prey her highness thought them to fish with out using their jaws at either at the near by lake or the koi fish pond" -Feng Yun

"Her highness eat something from the koi fish pond? She might pick up some unknown illness from eating those" -Gou Shi

"I never thought that Sister in law is so resourceful. Though she just doing it to survive Gou Shi, As if Sister in law have any other choice" -Prince Idle

"Your majesty you should make it up to empress consort, she is so pitiful as she suffered a lot that made her write this blunt letter" -Eunuch Fon

"Fine. Feng Yun your in charge of this list give all she needed as soon as possible"  -Emperor

" Sometime I feel like you lot are ganging up on me" the Emperor said while massaging his temples

"Feng Yun, you also might want to ask some maid servant about what her highness said at the end of her letter." - Gou Shi

"You mean the line with 'thing used for woman's time of the month?' I'm also curious at what Sister in law meant by that" - Prince Idle

"Prince Idle please refrain your curiosity as it's already embarrassing for her highness to ask for it from his majesty. Though I doubt that his majesty knew what her highness meant." Gou Shi said face palming at the clueless look the other gave him

"Just ask that only maid servant her highness have and she'll know what to do" Gou Shi said as he blushed a little from embarrassment explaining about it to his friends

that made the other four people in the study more curious about that thing.

When morning came Feng Yun personally delivered the things on the empress consort list

That made her day with glee as Feng Yun saw her smile as her eyes sparkled along with the rising Sun

"Thank you, thank you, thank you... by the way I still don't know your name... you've been keeping an eye on me this whole time yet you haven't introduced yourself properly" she said

And he was taken a back as she's all gleeful and kept thanking him.

"Forgive me for my rudeness your highness, I am Feng Yun his majesty's personal shadow guard"

"Then Feng Yun, you have my gratitude as from this day onward I'll be customizing my own courtyard...kyaaaa!!!" she said excitedly eyes shining like stars and shirking like a madly in love teenage girl in her time.

But the impact it brought to the poor shadow guard made him want to obey this abandoned empress of theirs

"If you need any help with anything your highness, you can call for me at any time" he said bowing a little

" thank you, but I'm gonna warn you I might work your every fiber till you drop"  she said slyly giggling at her plan for the whole court yard that made her so excited to start her personal project.

"Umm. I'll you my best your highness" he said still bowing not daring to meet the empress consorts eyes

"You can just call me Kim Li, since you kinda've been entertaining me and my pets this whole two months"  she said considering him as her first  friend in this world

"But your highness...."

"Oh? Rules... then just call me by my name when there is no other people around and I'll call you by yours, that what friends do right?"

He started but she cut him off as she won't take no for an answer.
And Feng Li can't do anything but to comply.

He also reported to his majesty that he delivered everything on her highness list early in the morning.
