Chapter 414 - I Will Remove You From Your Position.
Ji Cheng looked at Wen Xu with his intimidating gaze when he saw the way she was defending Xiao Li. This time, he really lost it when his mother tried to force Zhao Ming to give up her powers.
Those powers were originally hers because she is the Empress. An Empress without her powers is just like a soldier without his weapons.
How can his mother ask Zhao Ming to give up her powers? Didn't they bully her enough when he was not around? When he is finally able to give her what she deserves, they want her to give up?
The? remaining? respect that he had for his mother disappeared seeing how she was ridiculing Zhao Ming earlier and how she is defending Xiao Li now.
Since, his mother has stated her stand, it's high time when he shows her that he is an Emperor, not her puppet. Just because he was following her till now, it doesn't mean he will do so from now as well.
" Mother, you said that I have become crude right? Then what about you? What are you trying to do earlier?" Ji Cheng didn't hold himself back this time.
Zhao Ming was surprised seeing his outburst like this.
" How can you ask Zhao Ming to forfeit her rights? Is that what an Empress Dowager should do? " he sneered at Wen Xu as his expressions were cold just like his tone.
Wen Xu was dumbfounded hearing his words but she maintained her composure and said," Ji Cheng, I just wanted her to give harem rights to Xiao Li for her own good. "
" For her own good? How?".
" If.. She didn't manage the harem properly because of her lowly background, then people will laugh at us and will look down on the royal family. Xiao Li is a girl who was? well brought up in the noble family, she can definitely do better at these things than Zhao Ming. " Wen Xu argued righteously.
She doesn't think that she is wrong in any way.
Xiao Li on the side, didn't say anything and just held her head down obediently. Since Wen Xu is speaking up for her, she doesn't need to do anything.
Zhao Ming on the other hand looked at Wen Xu when she heard her words.
' Hah. Well brought up? Do they teach such scheming tactics to their children as well?'
" Mother, I don't care whatever you think or you want. I am saying for the last time and remember it clearly. Zhao Ming is my wife, the Empress of Ji Dynasty."
" And no one can take her place, never and ever. So don't play your dirty tricks again. If you have something to say then say to me. You don't need to call Zhao Ming again like this again. "
Ji Cheng said without any hesitation and didn't bother about any formalities while talking to Wen Xu.
" Ji Cheng , how can you talk to your mother like this? And what do you mean by dirty tricks? I just wanted to talk to her, is that something wrong?" Wen Xu put her hand on her chest as she was shocked seeing how Ji Cheng was talking to her.
" You're my mother , but she is my wife as well. Just like you are Empress Dowager now, she is also Empress. And she will be the Empress Dowager in the future and the mother of my child. So please maintain a mutual respect. Otherwise I won't mind if you want to go to mountains for meditation. " Ji Cheng said with a straight face.
He has understood Wen Xu's intentions that she wants Xiao Li to be Empress Dowager and give birth to the heir of Ji Dynasty but he does not want that.
He cannot give this position to anyone else other than Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming was stunned when she heard Ji Cheng's words.
" Mother of his child?" she was dumbfounded as she mumbled softly. Her voice was low but since Ji Cheng was standing near her, he heard everything
His expressions turned gentle as he glanced at her. Zhao Ming was stunned seeing his gentle expressions.
The issue of children that she has not even thought of even in her wilde dream. She was planning to go back to her world once things became normal and she would get the answer to all her questions.
Bearing his children was a very serious topic for her. She doesn't know if she should be shy about it or scared? She didn't think about things that far.
" What did you say? She will be the Empress Dowager in the future? Hah. No way. I won't let this bi*ch to be the Empress Dowager in the future."
" I am telling you, I will not let her bear your child at any cost. Even if she gets pregnant, she will have to handover that child to Xiao Li. Only Xiao Li can be the Empress Dowager. "
" I don't want my grandchildren to be brought up by this lowly bi*ch." Wen Xu snarled while glaring daggers at Zhao Ming.
-_-
Zhao Ming was speechless seeing the way Wen Xu was glaring at her.
It was Ji Cheng who said those words but why was she swearing at her? She doesn't want children as well. At least not now.
But why is she the one who is getting all the hate?
" Empress Dowager." Ji Cheng shouted as he looked at Wen Xu with his dark eyes.
Wen Xu was shocked seeing his dangerous aura and shut up her mouth.
" I am warning you for the last time, if you? address my wife with inappropriate words again, I will remove you from your position." Ji Cheng glared at Wen Xu and warned her without any hesitation.
.
Wen Xu felt her world parting upon hearing his words.
' He said he will remove me from the position of Empress Dowager?'
Wen Xu stared at Ji Cheng in daze as she had never expected something from him.
' How can he threaten me like this?'
' Now when his reign has become stable, he wants her to be removed from her position? '
