Chapter 192 - Soft and Tender Chicken (1/2)

Ji Dynasty.

In the morning, a maid came running to Xiao Li's chamber, ” Miss. I have something to tell you.”

Xiao Li who was getting her hair done looks towards the door where the girl was panting heavily.

Her brows frowned as she was annoyed by her sudden arrival, ” What? What is the thing that is so important that you came to tell me in the early morning? ”

It was a morning time as she was getting ready. She didn't have her breakfast yet and this girl came to disturb her.

Xiao Li doesn't like to wake up early in the morning like Zhao Ming. By the time she wakes up, the sun was already rising high with people going here and there for work.

She lives her life in leisure while Zhao Ming use to do all the palace work. From managing the harem to fulfilling the needs of Empress Dowager.

The maid which came running to her room was the same maid she had appointed to keep a look at Zhao Ming.

She wanted to know what was happening in her Chamber. That's why she has appointed her people there.

The girl who was panting heavily, tried to take a deep breath as she hurriedly said, ” Miss, I just went to the lotus pavilion. I came to know that his highness has spent yesterday's night in Empress Chamber.”

Her voice has lowered as she completed her words.

Xiao Li turned to looked at the girl and glared at her.

” What did you say? His highness stayed at the lotus pavilion with Zhao Ming? ” she said her words slowly as she emphasized every single word.

Her face darkened when she heard this. It was so long since Ji Cheng has went to Zhao Ming's room.

Xiao Li never let Ji Cheng visit Zhao Ming in her Chamber as she was afraid that their problems will be solved and that bi*ch might seduce him to get into her bed.

After that, his highness will always go to Zhao Ming's chamber and will forget her.

Though JI Cheng never spent a night with Xiao Li but she won't let Zhao Ming to spend time with him either.

She tried to do everything she could do to not let him visit her.

To sow discord between them, she even plotted against Zhao Ming and set her up with the bodyguard.

In the palace, the Empress cheating on the Emperor is the biggest crime an Empress could commit.

The punishment for this crime is capital punishment. But Ji Cheng saved Zhao Ming from this punishment by accounting the bodyguard for rebel.

This was not the outcome she was desiring for. He has ruined her plan and now he went to spend the night with her.

” It seems that this Zhao Ming is forgetting her place. I need to show her place again. So that she won't go against me like this again ” she mumbled as she tightened her palms into a fist.

She wore her upper robe and went to Zhao Ming's Chamber followed by her maids.

….

Zhao Ming was feeling hot as there was no air conditioner and from the heat emanating from her side, she started sweating.

She rubbed her neck to remove the sweat while sleeping.

After that when she stretched her hand, she felt something strange and strong beside her.

In her sleep, she didn't bother to open her eyes and raised her head to place on a strong and high pillow. The pillows here were very hard and low in elevation.

She felt uncomfortable while sleeping in these pillows.

She snuggled into it to find a comfortable place as she continued sleeping.

…

Ji Cheng finally got to sleep a little at the dawn as she kept moving profusely for the whole night.

Her legs were brushing against the sensitive parts of his body and after controlling for long, when he tried to wake her up, she didn't wake up.

She slept like a log.
