Chapter 648 - Head Consort Jia Shi (2/2)

”-_-”

”-_-”

Everyone was shocked hearing Jia shi's words. Did she just order Xiao Li to write the formal titles in the palace? Is she punishing her? In the past, Jia shi never said anything to Xiao Li, although she never acted like her sidekick, however, she never went against her either.

Xiao Li frowned and said while holding the book in her hands, ” Consort Jia shi, what is the meaning of this?”.

” Head Consort Jia shi.” Zhao Ming interrupted her and said firmly.

She glanced at Xiao Li and said, ” Consort Xiao Li, what Head consort Jia shi did was right. You are indeed unaware of the formal titles followed in the palace. I don't want you to get mocked by others for not knowing the formal titles properly. So I, the Empress of Ji Dynasty, want you to follow Head consort Jia shi's order. Please write the formal title 10 times and give it to me by tomorrow morning. Also, from now on, I don't want you to see calling others with wrong titles.”

” Otherwise you will be punished like normal people. After all, mistakes can be forgiven once or twice but not every time.”

Everyone was shocked seeing the way Zhao Ming talked to Xiao Li and supported Jia shi. She is becoming feisty and sharp-tongued day by day.

Wen Xu's expressions darkened but she didn't say anything. She could have argued with Jia shi but she felt reluctant to argue with her when Zhao Ming was speaking up for her.

Moreover, they are in the chamber where she has slapped Zhao Ming and in return, she was punished to stay at the abandoned chamber for three months.

Xiao Li huffed in anger seeing Wen Xu not saying anything and took her seat in annoyance. She was humiliated in front of other consorts and Wen Xu didn't say anything to her.

….

The meeting started and Zhao Ming and Jia shi discussed some matters about the changes in the harem that they had discussed before.

Everyone listens to them intently except Xiao Li and Wen Xu. This came to an end but Zhao Ming stopped everyone as she had an announcement to make.

” As you all know that, after consort Xiao Li was suspended from her position of the Head Consort, Consort Jia shi is helping me with the harem work. However, a few days ago, Consort Xiao Li's three months punishment ended. It means she can be appointmented as Head consort.”

Xiao Li's face lit up hearing her words. His father has told her that he will handle Zhao Ming and will make her appoint her as the head consort again.

' Is she finally going to announce my reappointment?'

Wen Xu's face also lit up as she looked at Zhao Ming expectantly. She has tried to talk to her about Xiao Li's appointment before and she said that she will announce her decision soon.

Everyone glanced at Xiao Li and smiled congratulating her by smiling at her and showing their so called happiness.

Xiao Li smiled back and sat up straight waiting to thank everyone for believing in her. She was preparing her speech inwardly and took a deep breath to calm her racing heart.

” So I have decided who will help me with the harem affairs as the head Consort.” Zhao Ming said as she glanced at Xiao Li and smiled before looking at everyone.
