Chapter 523 - What a nice way to apologise. (2/2)

” Didn't I say that it was not my intention to hurt you? What more do you want?”

”-_-”

' Wow. What a nice way to apologize.'

” Oh, so that was your apology?”

Wen Xu nodded as she thought that Zhao Ming understood her words.

” Feng Ju.” Zhao Ming suddenly shouted to call out Feng Ju.

Even Ji Cheng was confused about why she was calling Feng Ju out of blue.

Feng Ju entered the room hesitantly and pursed his lips as the air in the room was too heavy.

” Feng Ju, please help Empress Dowager to shift to the empty chamber in the backyard. When I was walking around there, I saw that it was empty and nobody was staying there. So help her move to that chamber. From now on, she will stay there.”

”-_-”

Wen Xu's eyes widened in shock as she bellowed, ” What are you trying to do here? Why would I move there?”

The chamber that Zhao Ming was talking about is behind the main palace and its condition was really bad and very small compared to the chambers of other consorts let alone the orchid pavilion.

The abandoned chamber is for abandoned consorts and it doesn't have any proper necessary items let alone luxury things. There is even a wall separating the palace and that chamber.

Moving there is nothing less than punishment to the confinement room. Because in the past it was used as a punishment chamber for consorts and concubines. It's been long since someone has been sent there.

Zhao Ming smiled and said, ” Mother, you have done many appropriate things, and slapping the Empress of the Ji Dynasty can be considered a crime against the royalty. If I asked for an official investigation, then you will be punished severely according to the rules.”

” However, here I am being humble and not appealing for the official investigation. But it doesn't mean that I will let you go just like that after slapping me. If you don't want to go to the detention room, then please move to that chamber. And think about what you did wrong.”

” Now, you will spend the period of three months of suspension in that chamber. And let me remind you, according to the rules, you're not allowed to take servants with you, not allowed to eat meals prepared by the kitchen, which means you have to cook your meal yourself.”

” On top of that, you're not allowed to go out of that chamber until the completion of three months. You can't meet anyone including consort Xiao Li. Hope when you complete the punishment period of these three months, you will emerge as a new mature person.” Zhao Ming said with a smile on her face.

Ji Cheng stared at Zhao Ming in disbelief. After her memories came back, she was using the rules quite well.

Wen Xu's expressions fell when she heard this. She walked to Ji Cheng and tugged at his sleeve, ” Ji Cheng, look. Look, what your wife is saying? She wants me to move to that chamber? I..I am the Empress Dowager. How can she do that to me? It's not right. This can't happen. She can't do that to me.” she was panicking seeing that Ji Cheng was not responding.

” Mother you should be glad that she decided to deal with you this way. Because what you have done, deserves royal punishment. You will be sent to a detention room and might have to suffer worse. So just go there and try to think about your mistakes. Maybe you could emerge as a new person from there.”
