Chapter 457 - Harem Meeting (10) (1/2)

Xiao Li was stunned upon hearing Zhao Ming's words.

' How can she say that she will remove me from my position and replace me with someone else?'

Everyone in the room was shocked as well. No one has ever dared to touch Xiao Li's position as head Consort in the harem.

Generally, by the hierarchy only Xiao Li can be the head Consort because she got married to JI Cheng after Zhao Ming. But in fact, Xiao Li always treated herself more than the Head consort.

She always thought herself as the Empress and had more reputation in the Harem than Zhao Ming. However, now Zhao Ming was saying that she will replace her with someone?

Since when she became so gutsy?

….

Wen Xu slammed her hand on the table in anger and asked, ” What did you say? You will remove Xiao Li as the Head Consort? Who are you to do that? Even if she is suspended, it is for only three months. It's not decisive so you can't remove her from the position.”

” Don't you dare mess with her. Zhao Ming, I am warning you for the last time. Don't push my limits, if you continue to keep your bratty attitude then don't blame me for being ruthless. ” Wen Xu warned Zhao Ming in front of everyone.

Other consorts were shaking in fear seeing Wen Xu's side. Her words were too direct and threatening.

” Mother, I never said that I will remove Consort Xiao Li from her position. I just said that I have to give this position to another Consort to help me with the work. And if that consort did a good job, then I can't remove her from the position. So, I haven't decided anything yet. ” Zhao Ming said in a calm tone without flinching even once.

Everyone was surprised seeing how calm Zhao Ming was in front of Wen Xu.

In truth, Zhao Ming wanted to laugh out loud as she was having so much fun. She doesn't know why but she was feeling immense pleasure by making Wen Xu and Xiao Li annoyed.

'This is the best feeling ever. Oh, it feels so good to be the Empress.'

She was glad that she came into this world as the Empress, not some maiden, or concubine. It would be too pitiful if that would have happened.

Because she is definitely not suitable for that kind of controlled life. At least being the Empress she can do these things, but imagining her life as the mere maiden makes her shudder in fear.

She was lucky that she became Empress.

Zhao Ming looked at Wen Xu and continued, ”And if we talk about authority to change Consort Xiao Li from her position, then.. I definitely have that. I am the Empress of the Ji Dynasty and I can change the Head Consort if she is not working well. And you also know how work was done in the past.” Zhao Ming said while comfortably sitting on the chair.

Xiao Li frowned when she heard Zhao Ming's words.

Zhao Ming didn't bother with anyone's glare and continued,” However, I won't go onto that part. I just want to look forward and hope that whoever becomes the head Consort can work well.”

Wen Xu gritted her teeth in anger. She was seething in anger and was trying to control herself from slapping Zhao Ming in the face.

She took a deep breath because she needed to end all this and  hurry and talk to Ji Cheng about all this.

How could he give her and Xiao Li the red letter? Moreover, the reasons were not clearly explained as well.

” Zhao Ming, I am telling you don't go overboard. If you crossed your lines, then don't think that you will be saved just because you have Ji Cheng.” Wen Xu looked at Zhao Ming with her stiffened jaw.

Zhao Ming ignored her words and looked at the other consorts.
