Zhao Ming pursed her lips as she was trying to control her laughter because? Xiao Li's expression was too funny.
She came to degrade her but Wen Ru didn't give her any chance to do so.
Xiao Li brought Wen Xu to the entrance because she wanted to show Zhao Ming that even if Ji Cheng is on her side, she has Wen Xu with her.
And she can't get away from Wen Xu's wrath. But her plan totally failed when Wen Ru distracted Wen Xu's attention.
" We should go in now. Empress Dowager, we just came from a journey, so if you want to talk, then at least talk inside." Ji Cheng said as he pulled Wen Ru from Empress Dowager's arms and asked her to talk inside.
They were talking while standing and he saw earlier that Zhao Ming was flinching while standing.
Her legs might have gone sore due to being in sitting position for long. That's why he doesn't want to talk while standing anymore.
Wen Xu glared at Ji Cheng but nodded anyway. She knows that she can't say anything to him.
" You can go and freshen up. And come to my chamber quickly. I want to talk to you about something." Wen Xu's expressions turned stern as she said her words.
" You also come with him" Wen Xu looked at Zhao Ming and asked her to come as well.
Zhao Ming pursed her lips as she nodded. She can see from Xiao Li's expressions that she has said something to Wen Xu about her.
Wen Ru shut up his mouth and stood there while glancing at Zhao Ming. He was worried that she might have taken Wen Xu's attitude to heart.
But to his surprise she was nodding like she has no problems with it. She was acting very differently from her past self.
She doesn't seem to be bothered about it at all.
...
Zhao Ming went to her chamber to freshen up. Ji Cheng was trying to follow her but Zhao Ming stopped him because if he went to her chamber then Feng Ju would have to get his clothes for him to her chamber.
That's why she asked him to go to his chamber and freshen up.
When Zhao Ming came back to her room, she sighed as she plopped on her bed. She wanted to rest on her? bed peacefully but as soon as she arrived at the palace she was welcomed by Wen Xu and Xiao Li.
She has thought that the next few days would be peaceful for her but seems like her life won't go as she has planned.
" Miss, do you want to take a bath? Should I prepare water for you?" Lu shi asked as she placed the items that Zhao Ming had brought from the market.
Zhao Ming glanced at the items and smiled. The time she spent at the market was the best time of her life.
She has never enjoyed so much in her life. She felt so much pleasure while shopping in that market that she didn't have while she used to shop in shopping malls.
After she took a bath and was standing in front of the mirror, rubbing her hair from the towel.
" What is it?"
" Empress Dowager has asked Her highness to visit her at her Chamber." the maid said with her head held down.
Zhao Ming sighed as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. ƒ𝑟e𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋no𝙫𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
' This old hag won't let me rest for a minute. '
" You go back, I am coming after getting ready." Zhao Ming said as she waved her hand and asked the maid to go.
The maid was new and polite, so Zhao Ming didn't say anything. But she has seen other? servants of Wen Xu who are arrogant just like her.
But this girl seems to be very polite, that's why she liked her behavior.
After the maid went back, Zhao Ming didn't hurry while getting ready. Instead she took her time while getting ready.
" Miss, you should hurry up and get ready. You can't let Empress Dowager wait for you."
Lu shi urged Zhao Ming to hurry up and get ready because she was worried that Wen Xu would scold Zhao Ming if he reached late.
She knows that in the past, Wen Xu never held her tongue back and always humiliated Zhao Ming in front of everyone.
Zhao Ming never retorted Wen Xu's words in the past, because she always respected her as Ji Cheng's mother and didn't want to insult the title of Empress Dowager as well.
But unlike Zhao Ming, Wen Xu never cared about the title of Empress Dowager and always said words which were not suitable for her image.
...
Zhao Ming, who was putting the lipstick that she has made on her lips, looked at Lu shi and said, " So what? It's not like she would die from waiting." Zhao Ming chuckled as she said.
She doesn't care if Wen Xu has to wait for her or not but she won't hurry up just because she wants to meet her.
If she is that much desperate, then she should come to meet her. If Wen Xu is Empress Dowager then she is Empress as well.
She needs to show Wen Xu that as Empress Dowager her reign has expired. But she is the Empress and she is the one who is currently in the rule.
So if she wants to respect her then she needs to show the respect to her as well. She won't respect her just because of h er title or her old age.
Because in her eyes, she does not deserve to be respected.
As an elder, Wen Xu has crossed her limits many times. But she won't let her continue to behave like this.
She needs to show her, who is the boss here.
