Chapter 634 - King Xiao Ruogang (2/2)
This made her look more pitiful.
” The King of L country has arrived.” The guard came forward and announced the arrival of Xiao Ruogang.
Zhao Ming squinted her eyes to see a man who was wearing royal heavy clothes as she had expected. The man has a strong and powerful aura around him.
She pursed her lips and glanced at Xiao Li. She looked so innocent by looks at least, while her father looked so dangerous. That's why she has mixed personalities.
She doesn't have good thoughts about Xiao Ruogang because when he had met Zhao Ming in the past, he spoke to her politely in front of others but in private, he threatened her saying that even though Xiao Li is not the Empress, she will be Empress Dowager one day.
Also, even though Xiao Li got married due to a marriage alliance, if he was dissatisfied with the way she was treated, he won't hesitate to go against the alliance. Since at that time, Ji Cheng's state was in chaos and was experiencing rebels in the country.
Zhao Ming was afraid of going against Xiao Li because of this reason. This will not only affect Ji Cheng but because of their grudges, she doesn't want the hundreds of people to die in a battle.
However, it's been some time since things are under control, and not only that Ji Cheng has emerged as the most powerful Emperor among the neighboring countries but his Empire is one of the largest and powerful among the other empires.
…
” Greetings to His Majesty, Her Majesty.” Xiao Ruogang walked to the center and bowed in front of them, to pay his courtesy.
Zhao Ming responded to his greeting with a polite nod.
” King Xiao Ruorang, it's been a long time since you came to the palace. Is there something special about this visit?” After paying the formal greetings, Ji Cheng asked him if he had any special reason to come to the Palace. He didn't address him as the father in law but King Xiao Rougang.
Xiao Ruogang pursed his lips and smiled mildly, ” Your Majesty, what can be the special reason? This time I came here as a father, not as the King of L country. I was missing Xiao Li for a month and this time, I decided to visit the palace.” He said while glancing at Xiao Li who was sitting alone on the side.
Zhao Ming knitted her brows seeing how kind he was acting. This kind of good father image does not suit him at all.
A dark glint flashed in his eyes making him clench his fists tightly. He greeted Zhao Ming and Ji Cheng properly but greeted Jia shi who was sitting on the Head Consort position casually.
A month ago, he received Xiao Li's letter, in which she explained what happened to her and how Zhao Ming was acting strangely in past months.
In the letter, it was also written that Zhao Ming had not only given them red letters but had given the position of Head Consort to someone else.
It took him some time to organize his work and after that, he left for the Ji Dynasty. How can he let her princess suffer? He has pampered her to the core all his life. He doesn't want her to marry Ji Cheng because she will be just a consort and not an Empress.
However, Xiao Li was adamant to marry Ji Cheng and only wanted him as her husband. In the end, he had no choice but to propose this marriage in exchange for the military support and peace between the two countries.
'However, he still wanted her to be the Empress Dowager.'
