Chapter 633 - Xiao Lis Father (2/2)
Since Grandmother Shuren came quite late, she didn't get much time to handle the position of Empress Dowager, but it was enough to torture Wen Xu.
Grandmother Shuren has made Wen Xu's life a pure hell. When Wen Xu served Shuren, she not only has to clean her room but also cook three meals a day for her. And if it tastes bad, she has to redo everything.
Not only that, she has to wash Grandmother Shuren's clothes, and also prepare her bath water.
She has never seen Wen Xu be scared of someone like this. Now Wen Xu gets goosebumps even hearing Shuren's voice.
Along with Wen Xu, Xiao Li's punishment period is supposed to end as well. However, this decision is under Zhao Ming's authority to give her the position of Head Consort back or not.
And she hasn't made the decision yet.

…..
After a week, the court was held in which only the consorts and a few important court members were present to give Empress Dowager her position back.
It was not only the day when Wen Xu's punishment was over but Xiao Li's as well since they were provided Red letters together.
Grandmother Shuren was also present but she was supposed to go back after the ceremony.
Ji Zhelan left the palace a few days ago. Zhao Ming doesn't know why but Ji Cheng was spending nights at the study these days and seems to be quite busy.
Zhao Ming pursed her lips seeing Wen Xu's condition. She looked lethargic because of Shuren's torture all this while but her face lit brightened up as soon as she was given the crown of Empress Dowager again.
Shuren snorted seeing her smile. She knows that Wen Xu will never be able to fix her greedy character.
Xiao Li was also sitting among the other consorts with her sullen expressions. She stared at Jia shi with dark expressions as if she wanted to swallow her whole. Wen Xu was crowned as the Empress Dowager again but she was not given the position of Head Consort yet.
Only her monthly budget has been approved but the decision of her taking the position of Head Consort was on hold.
After the ceremony ended, they sent off Grandmother Shuren. Ji Cheng went back to his study for work, just as Zhao Ming was about to go to her chamber, she heard a familiar voice.
” Zhao Ming”
Zhao Ming stopped in her steps and her lips curled up in a smile.
She turned around and said, ” Empress Dowager.”
Wen Xu looked around and saw nobody around, she came closer to her and said, ” Did you think that you could do anything to me? You must have forgotten that I am the Empress Dowager. You can't get rid of me. I will not let you live in peace.”
