Chapter 521 - A tight slap (1/2)

Zhao Ming sighed as she was fed up dealing with Wen Xu and Xiao Li. Can't she have a single peaceful day in this palace?

” Empress Dowager, neither Minister Yu Shao's removal from his position has nothing to do with me nor yours and consort Xiao Li. All decisions have been taken by his majesty, so if you have any problem then you can talk to him directly.”

” I am not involved in these decisions in any way, so please don't put all the blame on me. Also, I request you to be mindful of your behavior. You did it today, but I won't be tolerable if you hit my people again. Lu Shi is my maid, not yours. So you have no authority to hit her or order her around especially when she didn't do anything wrong.” Zhao Ming said sternly while looking into Wen Xu's eyes without blinking away.

Wen Xu pursed her lips and chuckled, ” Really? Do you think I am afraid of you? Zhao Ming, you're nothing but a cheap s.l.u.t who is only good in bed. How dare you threaten me? I am the Empress Dowager. I don't need your permission on how I should treat servants.”

Zhao Ming's eyes darkened when she heard Wen Xu's dirty words. She pursed her lips and closed her eyes for a moment.

But when she opened her eyes again, she chuckled and smiled brightly.

” You're right. If a woman is not good in bed then how can she be able to satisfy her husband? I am good in bed that's why His majesty never went to any of his other consorts. Because of this your dream to make Consort Xiao Li, an Empress Dowager will always be a dream.” she laughed lightly.

” Because it seems like you will soon become a grandmother and I will be the mother of future Emperor of Ji Dynasty,” she said while flipping her braid back and caressing the purple marks on her neck as if flaunting them.

At first, she felt annoyed and angry when she heard her words. But when she thought about it, she started to feel that it's more like a compliment rather than an insult. After all, being good in bed is a great skill that not anyone can have.

She should be proud of this fact and not get agitated about it. So she didn't back away and teased her using her own words.

Wen Xu gritted her teeth when she heard Zhao Ming's shameless response. In the past, she could never dare to give such shameless responses but now she acted like that it was a compliment and not an insult.

” You...You...Are you even hearing what you're saying? How can you say such shameless words as the Empress of the Ji Dynasty? Do you have any shame left in you or not?”

” So you know that I am the Empress of the Ji Dynasty and yet you are spouting such dirty words for me? If I am the Empress then you're also the Empress Dowager. How can the Empress Dowager use such cheap words for the Empress?”

” I think you need to learn manners more than me because you lack the basic manners, not me,” she said while folding her hands in front of her chest as she stared at her domineeringly.

” You...Bitch…” Wen Xu bellowed and dashed towards Zhao Ming angrily and held her hand tightly and gave her a tight slap on the face.

Zhao Ming, who was not interested in talking to her and had just turned around, Wen Xu walked to her angrily and slapped her on the face. She was caught off guard as she was not expecting her to resort to physical violence.

The slap was tight and hard which left a clear hand mark on her face. She felt a stinging pain and pursed her lips tight.
