Chapter 560 - Princess Tan Xiu (1/2)

Duan Yazhu was speechless when he heard Zhao Ming's words. How...can she reject his proposal just because he asked for some extra budget for maintenance?

He glanced at Ji Cheng to find some hope but his expressions were clear. He also agreed with Zhao Ming's suggestion.

He turned around to see other people wanting to pressure Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming with public opinion but when he turned around, no one looked into his eyes.

”-_-”

They were avoiding his gaze.

' Does everyone think that Zhao Ming is right?'

” This budget plan for Paradise school will not be passed. Take and revise this plan and also make some suggestions and policies to support the education of poor children as well.” Ji Cheng said as he passed the doc.u.ments to Feng Ju to give it to Duan Yazhu.

Duan Yazhu stared at Ji Cheng with bewilderment and said, ” But your majesty, our school is for the children from noble and high-class families. How can we let the poor children study together with them?”

Zhao Ming frowned hearing his words.

” In that sense, you shouldn't be standing in front of His Majesty. Because from his level, you're nothing. So should we throw you out from here? Mr. Duan Yazhu, you might be higher in class but you're thinking is very poor.”

” If this is your level of thinking then I don't know what you're teaching to those students.” Zhao Ming said as she shook her head disappointedly.

Duan Yazhu pursed his lips as he wanted to say something but Ji Cheng was glaring at him to keep shut.

” My decision is final. Revise your plan and add the ideas to support the education of poor children as well. Since you're taking the money from the royal treasury, you have to do things according to us.” Ji Cheng said casually.

” Also, I am going to make a different committee that will look after the execution of the policies and will check from time to time if those students are being treated well or not. And Mr. Duan, if I found out that you're not following the royal orders properly, I am not going to hesitate to remove you from your position and punish you. Understand?”

Everyone was shocked when they heard Ji Cheng's words. Because of what Zhao Ming said he is not only telling Duan Yazhu to revise the plan but will also going to make a separate committee to look after the execution of the policies.

Now everyone understood the importance that Zhao Ming holds in his eyes.

If not for Zhao Ming, Ji Cheng would have passed the budget like always, but because Zhao Ming questioned the budget, he rejected the budget.

...

After the court session ended, Zhao Ming came back to her chamber while Ji Cheng went to the study to work.

” AH, I never thought that hearing all those reports would be this tiring.” she plopped on the bed and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

It's lunchtime but she fell asleep because of the exhaustion.

After some time, when Ji Cheng finished his work and came back to the chamber, he saw Lu shi outside the room.

” Did she have lunch?”

Lu shi was surprised when he suddenly stopped and asked her. After a moment of silence, she shook her head and said, ” Miss was tired and fell asleep after she came back.”

He pursed his lips and nodded.

When he entered the room, he saw that she was peacefully sleeping on the bed. He walked to her and sat on the bed beside her.

A smile appeared on his lips when he remembered the way she dealt with Duan Yazhu.

Since she woke up from the coma, she has changed for the better. Not only did their relationship improve but she also grew as a person.

She became more confident about herself and her achievements. Also, the way she manages the harem is amazing.

He smiled and laid beside her and scooped her in his arms.

He rubbed his face against her nape and hugged her from behind and closed his eyes.
