Chapter 573 - She is angry. (1/2)
Zhao Ming saw that he wasn't replying so she asked again.
” Let me put it this way, you have only one legal consort and three concubines, right? And this girl doesn't want to be your concubine. So are you ready to take her in as your consort ?”
The man's brows twitched when he heard her question. He glanced at the girl and scoffed, ” Your Majesty, she is just a daughter of a mere merchant. Also, she is herself a daughter from a concubine, then how can I take her in as a consort?”
Zhao Ming pursed her lips and stared at Gao Lin who was looking at Xu Hua arrogantly.
Men like her always think that they are better than others. On the other side, they are nothing but losers.
” Also, what is wrong with having many concubines? Doesn't his majesty have so many consorts as well? I don't understand why you're making it such a big problem?”
”-_-”
His words made everyone swallow their saliva in fear. His words were too bold.
Even his father grew worried when he heard his son's words. He really doesn't know what and when to say.
Ji Cheng's brows twitched when he heard his words. However, when he glanced at Zhao Ming, she was expressionless.
He couldn't read what she was thinking.
But he was sure of one thing.
She is angry.
Zhao Ming just stared at Gao Lin and didn't say anything for a few minutes. The whole court was silent to the point that the sound of people's breathing could be heard.
” Hah.” Zhao Ming ridiculed and looked at Gao Lin with a cold gaze and said, ” You're right. His Majesty has so many wives. But you know what, he married them to protect the Empire. But you're right. It does not eliminate the fact that he has many consorts.”
” But he has legally married everyone and not kept them as concubines. Unlike you, who has only one legal wife and has kept others as concubines. Not only that, but you're also forcing a girl who is half of your age to be your concubine. ”
Nobody said anything and just listened to Zhao Ming's words. Even Ji Cheng was quiet and was silently listening to her words.
” Your Majesty, I am not the only one who has taken concubines before. Everyone does that. It's not new. Also, what's wrong with being a concubine? These women should be happy to know that someone is interested in them. ” Gao Lin boasted as he turned to Xu Hua and stared at her with his disgusting gaze.
” This girl..she is acting like this because it was me who showed interest first. Otherwise, she would have been roaming on streets to seduce men.”
”-_-”
”-_-”
People in the court were shocked to hear his words. They weren't expecting him to speak such things in the court.
Ji Cheng's expressions darkened when he heard his words.
” You're right. What's wrong keeping women as concubines?” Zhao Ming looked at Gao Lin coldly and said
” Then would you be fine if your wife brings other men home and keeps them as her kept man? How will you feel then? Will be alright with that?”
” YOUR MAJESTY! You're going too far.” Gao Lin shouted when he heard her words.
How can she do something like this? He cannot imagine his wife bringing other men home. He will kill her and that man together.
