Chapter 615 - I Have Something To Talk With You
Ji Cheng frowned when he heard Wen Xu\'s nagging from the side and rubbed his temples annoyingly.
Zhao Ming stood by the side and didn\'t say anything. She was confused as well, why Ji Cheng allowed him to stay in the palace. However, she knows that he seems to have something in mind and that\'s why she didn\'t say anything.
" Mother, I know better what I am doing. Moreover, whatever the reason is, Ji Zhelan has every right to stay in the palace. You can\'t deny the fact that he is father\'s son."
Wen Xu\'s expressions darkened when she heard this. What does he mean by this?
" Ji Cheng, do you have any idea what you are talking about? How can you say something like this?"
Ji Cheng looked at her in annoyance, " I didn\'t say anything wrong. It\'s true that he is the prince of the Ji?Dynasty and has every right to stay in this palace. It was your greed because of which you forced them out. If not for your selfish actions, the situation might be different."
Wen Xu patted her chest with her fist as she was angered by hearing his words. How can he say something like this?
She did all of this for him only, to clear the obstacles for his succession. How can he say something so unreasonable?
" How can you call him a prince? He is just a concubine born bastard. Ji Cheng, if not for me, you wouldn\'t be able to take this throne. Don\'t forget that everything I did was for your sake. How can you blame me for something so unreasonable?"
" Mother, first of all, it was not for my sake. You did everything to satisfy your greed and secure your title as Empress Dowager. And I know how to protect my family and people. I know what I am doing and I hope you won\'t interfere in my affairs."
" I just hope you can learn something from this punishment and realize what\'s your fault. You\'re not only my mother but also the Empress Dowager. Can you just behave like one? You should work for the wellness of people but your actions are just the opposite. Other than your selfish wishes, you don\'t care about anything else."
Wen Xu\'s expressions darkened as she couldn\'t stand his attitude.
Zhao Ming was impressed when she heard Ji Cheng\'s words. She has always seen how palace politics for power could be so brutal that the whole empire could be destroyed because of this hatred.
However, she can see how clear-minded and progressive Ji Cheng is. He thinks about people and their wellness first and then about anything else.
...
In the end, Wen Xu left the room in annoyance leaving the two alone.
Ji Cheng turned around and saw Zhao Ming staring at him.
He pursed his lips and asked, " Do you also think that I am being unreasonable?"
Zhao Ming didn\'t say anything and stared at him for a minute.
" I don\'t care about all this because I know that you won\'t make any decisions without any reason. So let\'s not talk about this."
" I think we should discuss what we are going to have for dinner tonight." She asked with serious expressions.
"-_-"
He let out a chuckle seeing the way she was being so serious while talking about food. He can see that she was trying to cheer him up and change the topic.
….
In the evening, Zhao Ming was reading the report of the harem made by Jia Shi. [ Read this novel on W e b n o v e l . c o m ( remove spaces). If you are reading this elsewhere, then this novel is pirated. Support the original author, not the thieves, and get the latest updates. Regards Kamlyn]
She was sitting on the chair while holding the report in her hands and was reading it with serious expressions.
Ji Cheng was also checking some reports while sitting on the bed comfortably. He was glancing at her in between and was pleasantly surprised seeing her serious expressions.
She is always high spirited and doesn\'t take anything serious these days but when it comes to work or something that needs her attention, she becomes determined and serious.
That\'s her charm. Not any woman can look this beautiful and attractive while working.
As they were working, a knock could be heard on the door. Ji Cheng looked up when he heard Feng Ju\'s voice from the outside.
" Your Majesty, Master Wen Ru has come?to meet you."
Zhao Ming raised her brows and glanced at Ji Cheng who was looking at her.
After Ji Cheng allowed him in, Wen Ru entered the room hesitantly. He sat on the chair opposite to Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming.
Wen Ru shifted on the chair nervously and rubbed his palms together to gather the courage to speak. Before Ji Cheng could interrogate him, he started speaking, " Ji Cheng, before you ask me anything, let me tell you. I wasn\'t aware that he is your brother Ji Zhelan. While I was coming here to attend grandmother Shuren\'s banquet, my horse slipped on the road because it was too slippery because of the heavy rain and got injured."
" It was he who treated my horse and also gave me a ride in his horse carriage here. He said that he is also coming to Ji city for some work. However, when he dropped me out of the palace, he kept staring at it. I thought that he just wanted to see the palace, so I brought him to eat something and relax in return for helping me. However, later I found out that he is the Prince Ji Zhelan. By that time, it was already too late." he said in a low voice while feeling intimidated under Ji Cheng\'s dark gaze.
Wen Ru was feeling uncomfortable because he knows the relations between Wen Xu and other concubines and their children. After Ji Zhelan comes to the palace, he knows it\'s gonna be chaotic, especially for Ji Cheng. Though he wasn\'t aware of the bodyguard incident, he does know the sour relationship between Wen Xu and the concubines of Ji Cheng\'s late father.
Ji Cheng didn\'t say anything and just stared at Wen Ru with indifference.
Zhao Ming saw the uncomfortable atmosphere and said, " Brother Wen, you don\'t need to worry about that. You did the right thing, it would have been impolite to send him back like this. By the way, you came here at this time just to explain this?"
Wen Ru felt better when he heard her words. He glanced at Ji Cheng and noticed that his expressions were indifferent but they were not cold or fierce.
He sighed in relief and looked at Zhao Ming as he said, " No. I have something to talk with you as well."
