Chapter 449 - Harem Meeting (2) (1/2)

After reading the doc.u.ments sent by Ji Cheng, Zhao Ming vaguely grasped the objective of these monthly meetings and how things work in the harem.

When it was almost time for the meeting, she put everything aside and got dressed in the light blue colored royal dress that Ji Cheng had sent for her.

When she changed into the dress, she realized how beautiful this dress is. This color not only complimented her complexion but also fitted her body perfectly.

It was not too long neither too loose, that's why she doesn't even need to alter this dress. The dress had the perfect length, so she could easily walk in this one without falling.

She put the matching earrings and rings. This time, she didn't style her hair in an updo but did her hair in a french braid because it would look beautiful with this outfit.

She knows that Empress needs to style her hair in a neat updo but it's only compulsory when she attends the public gatherings.

However, this was the internal meeting of the harem, so she can get ready as she wants.

” Miss, you look really beautiful. No doubt, his majesty wanted to wear this dress to the meeting.” Lu shi was in awe when she saw Zhao Ming glad in the dress.

” He really has good eyesight.”

Zhao Ming smiled when she heard Lu shi's words.

” And you have a good mouth.” She chuckled as she complimented Lu shi for her sweet tongue.

Zhao Ming left her chamber to the main palace when it was time for the meeting because Ji Cheng's study was in the main Palace.

The weather was surprisingly not hot today. She could feel the light breeze even in the noon time.

Looks like it's going to rain soon.

….

When Zhao Ming reached the palace, the guards greeted her respectfully.

Zhao Ming nodded at them and walked inside the palace walking towards the study room followed by Lu shi.

When Zhao Ming entered the study room, she was surprised that the significant changes were made to the study room to convert it into a meeting room.

The small table was removed and was replaced by a large table. There were several chairs around it and there was a large royal chair in the centre of the table.

Everything was perfect. But…

The strange thing was that the study room was empty. No one had arrived yet.

It was already the time for the meeting and no one was in the sight.

She is the Empress and yet she has to wait for everyone. They were clearly disregarding her authority by coming here late.

” Miss, no one has come yet. Will they even come here?” Lu shi said in a low voice.

She was worried that others might ignore her order and doesn't even show up here. If no one came for the meeting, then it will be very embarrassing for Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming sat on the chair in the centre. She looked up at Lu shi and smiled.

” Don't worry. They will come.” she closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair.

” But..” before Lu shi could complete her words, she heard a pair of footsteps approaching.

” Greeting to the Empress. I apologize for making you wait.” Jia Shi politely bowed in front of her.

Zhao Ming opened her eyes when she heard a familiar voice.
