Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 410 - I Need To Show Ji Cheng How Scheming She Is.

" What did she say?" Xiao Li asked the maid who just came from Zhao Ming's chamber.

Xiao Li was already in Wen Xu's chamber and had sent a maid to look for Zhao Ming without giving them much time to rest.

She doesn't care if she was tired or not but she just wanted Wen Xu to look for her. These last days when Wen Xu was not there, she has suffered a lot.

Xiao Li wanted Zhao Ming to come earlier than Ji Cheng and wanted to teach her a lesson before he came .

She has urged Wen Xu to call Zhao Ming first and the latter agree to her without hesitation.

Wen Xu never rejects Xiao Li's request because she is her dear daughter in law.

….

The maid glanced at Xiao Li and replied with her head held down, " Empress Zhao Ming said that she will come after getting ready."

" Hmm. You can go back now." Wen Xu, who was sitting on her royal chair, waved her hand, asking her to go back.

Xiao Li was sitting in the chair beside Wen Xu. Normally, they were not allowed to sit due to royal protocols and according to tradition only Empress can sit beside Empress Dowager. historical

However, Xiao Li and Wen Xu never cared about such traditions which were not suitable for them that's why Wen Xu made Xiao Li sit on Zhao Ming's seat.

" Mother, why did you call His highness here ? Since you wanted to talk to sister Zhao, why did you call his highness?" Xiao Li asked curiously.

They wanted to teach Zhao Ming a lesson but why did she call Ji Cheng over as well? Wouldn't this make things complicated?

Wen Xu drank her tea and replied solemnly," I wanted to talk to him about his decision. I wanted to know of which authority he gave Zhao Ming those powers? How can that girl deserve the right to manage the harem?"

" Ji Cheng has become willful since she woke up from the coma. I need to teach him a lesson as well. How can he take such a decision himself? Am I dead that he is giving all the powers to her? " Wen Xu's expressions turned grim as she completed her words.

She was so annoyed when she heard from Xiao Li that Ji Cheng had given all the right to manage the harem to Zhao Ming.

He even said that no one should disobey Zhao Ming's order otherwise he will look into the matter himself.

By saying this, is he trying to challenge her powers? He wanted Zhao Ming to manage her, Empress Dowager's budget?

Xiao Li's lips curled upwards when she heard Wen Xu's words. She was waiting for Wen Xu to come back because without her, it was hard for her to say anything.

She was so anxious when Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming went for a trip and stayed there for a night. But thankfully the same day today when Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming was about to return, Wen Xu arrived at the palace in morning

Xiao Li was elated seeing Wen Xu. She was glad that she came earlier than Ji Cheng.

When Wen Xu asked where everyone was, she told her what happened behind her back. How Zhao Ming bullied her and also threw her maid out from the palace.

Not only that, Ji Cheng also gave all the powers in the hands of Zhao Ming. She told her everything in an exaggerated manner and how Zhao Ming went to visit Brother Wen Ru's shop with Ji Cheng.

Wen Xu was so angered hearing everything from Xiao Li. She cannot believe that so much would happen behind her back.

She never let Zhao Ming out of the palace and Zhao Ming only attended banquets held in the palace. She doesn't want Zhao Ming to be recognized by others.

If the public does not have much impression of hers, then it's easy to throw her out of the position. But Ji Cheng not only took her out of the palace, but from Xiao Li's words it seems Zhao Ming has a close relationship with Wen Ru as well.

…..

Xiao Li looked towards the entrance of the chamber and said worriedly, " Why hasn't sister Zhao arrived yet? It's been more than an hour since Yu Li came back from the lotus pavilion."

( Yu Li is the maid who was sent by Xiao Li to inform Zhao Ming)

Xiao Li and Wen Xu were chatting all this while, but Xiao Li's eyes were on the gate waiting for Zhao Ming to come.

It's been more than an hour since the maid they sent came back from the lotus pavilion. But why hasn't Zhao Ming arrived here yet?

" This bi*ch is going out of hands. She dared to make me wait for her?" Wen Xu gritted her teeth as she heard Xiao Li's words.

She couldn't understand how Zhao Ming changed so much. In the past, she used to come whenever she called her and never made her wait. But now, it's been more than an hour and she hasn't come yet.

Xiao Li saw the sour look on Wen Xu's face and smiled.

" Sister must be busy, that's why she is late. Mother, you should not mind her behavior. It must be hard on Sister Zhao Ming since she doesn't have her memories." Xiao Li sounded like she was trying to protect Zhao Ming but in reality she was trying to fuel the fire in Wen Xu's heart.

The more Wen Xu heard Xiao Li's words which showed that she was protecting Zhao Ming, the more furious she got.

" Xiao Li, you don't need to speak for that ungrateful bi*ch. You're so nice to her and yet she bullies you. I can't believe she framed that girl Hao Mei and kicked her out. She must have done this to bully you because she knows how much you care about Hao Mei. "

" I always thought that she is just a girl who has no noble background but with her scheming acts, she has shown her real character. I need to show Ji Cheng how scheming she is. " Wen Xu also liked Hao Mei since she was close to Xiao Li.

Hao Mei was good at bootlicking, so that's why she got on good books of Empress Dowager. That's why she could do so many things on their encouragement.

Now when Zhao Ming has kicked Hao Mei out of the palace, this angered Wen Xu and looked like Zhao Ming was trying to challenge her.

Xiao Li smiled bitterly but her eyes darkerned when she remembered how Zhao Ming humiliated her.

She cannot forgive that Zhao Ming. She felt pleasant whenever Wen Xu cursed her or talked badly about her.
