Eternal Love: A Love Story

Chapter 634 - King Xiao Ruogang

Zhao Ming snorted seeing Wen Xu's secretive actions. Wen Xu can't even say these words out loud and here she is threatening her that she will not let her live in peace?

She stared at her face with an obvious mocking smile on her face.

Suddenly her expressions changed as she looked behind Wen Xu, " Oh, His Majesty."

Wen Xu's eyes widened in shock as she suddenly shut up. She gulped in nervousness and waved her hands in denial, " Ji Cheng, it's not what you…" she said while turning around.

But her expressions turned dark when she saw that no one was there. Zhao Ming was trying to scare her using Ji Cheng's name.

She gritted her teeth and turned around to give her a good lesson, but when she turned, there was no one.

"-_-"

"Where did she go?"

…

Zhao Ming couldn't help giggling while walking back to her chamber. She knows that Wen Xu is the Empress Dowager but for some reason, she can't feel scared of her.

It's not her fault though. It's Wen Xu who is more on the stupid and comedic side. Her aura just doesn't tell that she is the Empress Dowager. She tries to act strong and powerful but unfortunately, to her, she seems like a joke.

She is just all empty talk. Wen Xu has nothing in her hands in the presence of Ji Cheng.

…..

A week later, in the royal court, Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming were sitting on their throne while Wen Xu was sitting on her royal chair of the Empress Dowager.

In the court, only a few important ministers who handle the work of the relations and trade with other countries were present.

.

The special court was arranged to welcome the king of the L country who is also Xiao Li's father. That's why Xiao Li was invited to attend this court, but she was sitting separately from others.

Even though her punishment period was over, Zhao Ming didn't give her the position of Head Consort yet. This decision is under her authority and no one knows why she hasn't given Xiao Li's position to her yet.

It's been a week since Wen Xu has been reappointed as the Empress Dowager but Xiao Li was not announced as the Head consort. Everyone was worried about it since she hasn't given any clear response yet.

Jia shi was sitting on the head consort seat beside Ji Cheng while Xiao Li was sitting separately from everyone on the seat where the other consorts were supposed to sit. Since no other consorts were invited, she was sitting there alone.

This made her look more pitiful.

" The King of L country has arrived." The guard came forward and announced the arrival of Xiao Ruogang.

Zhao Ming squinted her eyes to see a man who was wearing royal heavy clothes as she had expected. The man has a strong and powerful aura around him.

She pursed her lips and glanced at Xiao Li. She looked so innocent by looks at least, while her father looked so dangerous. That's why she has mixed personalities.

She doesn't have good thoughts about Xiao Ruogang because when he had met Zhao Ming in the past, he spoke to her politely in front of others but in private, he threatened her saying that even though Xiao Li is not the Empress, she will be Empress Dowager one day.

Also, even though Xiao Li got married due to a marriage alliance, if he was dissatisfied with the way she was treated, he won't hesitate to go against the alliance. Since at that time, Ji Cheng's state was in chaos and was experiencing rebels in the country.

Zhao Ming was afraid of going against Xiao Li because of this reason. This will not only affect Ji Cheng but because of their grudges, she doesn't want the hundreds of people to die in a battle.

However, it's been some time since things are under control, and not only that Ji Cheng has emerged as the most powerful Emperor among the neighboring countries but his Empire is one of the largest and powerful among the other empires.

… historical

" Greetings to His Majesty, Her Majesty." Xiao Ruogang walked to the center and bowed in front of them, to pay his courtesy.

Zhao Ming responded to his greeting with a polite nod.

" King Xiao Ruorang, it's been a long time since you came to the palace. Is there something special about this visit?" After paying the formal greetings, Ji Cheng asked him if he had any special reason to come to the Palace. He didn't address him as the father in law but King Xiao Rougang.

Xiao Ruogang pursed his lips and smiled mildly, " Your Majesty, what can be the special reason? This time I came here as a father, not as the King of L country. I was missing Xiao Li for a month and this time, I decided to visit the palace." He said while glancing at Xiao Li who was sitting alone on the side.

Zhao Ming knitted her brows seeing how kind he was acting. This kind of good father image does not suit him at all.

A dark glint flashed in his eyes making him clench his fists tightly. He greeted Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng properly but greeted Jia shi who was sitting on the Head Consort position casually.

A month ago, he received Xiao Li's letter, in which she explained what happened to her and how Zhao Ming was acting strangely in past months.

In the letter, it was also written that Zhao Ming had not only given them red letters but had given the position of Head Consort to someone else.

It took him some time to organize his work and after that, he left for the Ji Dynasty. How can he let her princess suffer? He has pampered her to the core all his life. He doesn't want her to marry Ji Cheng because she will be just a consort and not an Empress.

However, Xiao Li was adamant to marry Ji Cheng and only wanted him as her husband. In the end, he had no choice but to propose this marriage in exchange for the military support and peace between the two countries.

'However, he still wanted her to be the Empress Dowager.'
