[A/N: Qiu Li Jie - Chief of Eunuch]

In the imperial study room,

"Qiu Li Jie, have you prepared what Zhen asked you to?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qiu Li Jie comes forwards and holds out a scroll.

Unfolds the scrolls, Wu Zhang Wei frowns, followed by heavy sighs.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong? I've arranged the turns based on their ranks. Should I change it?" Receiving no approval from the emperor makes Qiu Li Jie thinks he made a mistake in arranging the bedchamber turns.

"Yu Li Na, first three nights of the week;

Lin Hui Yin next two nights;

Wen Qian next one day;

Li Xiu Ying.....the last day." Wu Zhang Wei mumbles.

"No, it's okay. Let's just....proceed. Please inform all of them about this list." Zhang Wei kneads his temple.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Qiu Li Jie bobs his head and leaves the room.

Zhang Wei sighs. "This is all for you....."

The news of bedchamber turns had been made, making all the concubines feel all over the moon, especially Yu Li Na, who got the most nights to spend with Wu Zhang Wei.

When she saw the list, her cockiness leveled up. "Hmph! In the end, His Majesty still chooses me over you," she stares at Xiu Ying's name.

"All those smart-like acts, showing off your knowledge about medical is useless if you don't have even half of my beauty and curves. Do you think His Majesty wants to sleep with someone flat and skinny like you? It's better if he sleeps with a log!" She laughs out loud and even her servants join her.

Meanwhile, Xiu Ying only shrugs his shoulders when he saw the roster. Then, he put it aside, acting like he saw nothing important.

Jing Yi becomes frustrated on his behalf. He keeps on babbling, "How can His Majesty do this to you, Young Master! It's too unfair! Shouldn't you go and consult about this with His Majesty?"

Xiu Ying raises his eyebrows and frowns. 'Seriously this kid?? I'm finally getting the chance to make that guy stay away, now he wants me to ruin my plan?'

"Yo- young master... Why are you looking at me like that? Isn't what I said is right? His Majesty should be fair. He can't treat Young Master like this. This is like His Majesty openly declaring that young master is the least favorite of him!"

"I wished I didn't even enter that favorite list." Xiu Ying mumbles.

"Listen here, Jing Yi. Can you stop worrying? Before this I even decided to leave this place, so now why would I care about those useless rosters?" He scoffs.

"Really..? Young Master didn't take it to the heart?"

Xiu Ying chuckles. "I wish I could delete my name on that list." Hearing this, Jing Yi breathes a sigh of relief.

Jing Yi didn't exactly hate the emperor. He just dislikes the way the emperor treated his young master before. He doesn't want Xiu Ying to suffer again just because of his unrequited love towards the cold man.

......

Tonight is the starting of the bedchamber turns. Wu Zhang Wei will start to spend the night in Yu Li Na's room. The latter has been spending all day, busying herself decorating her room, and making herself look presentable.

She takes a long milk bath that will help her skin look fair and smooth. The water is also mixed with essential oils that could help her to relax her stiff muscles and have a nice body scent.
