Chapter 723 - Women ruling men! (2/2)

” Are you on my side or his?” she asked, Lu shi contemplated for a while at which Zhao Ming scowled.

” Ah, Ah, I am on your side. That's why I am worried about you,” she said while rubbing her palms nervously.

Zhao Ming laughed pleased with her response and said, ” Don't worry. He won't be able to do anything to me. If I get angry, I know how to control him. If he is the Emperor, I am the Empress here.”

” Men might know how to rule the world, but women know how to win over men. So who's the main ruler here?” she winked at Lu shi making her blush.

Lu shi smiled seeing her looking better than before. After having a fight with Ji Cheng, she was looking worried and down all the time. But since she moved to the Lotus pavilion, her condition is getting better which relieved her.

Zhao Ming glanced at Lu shi from the mirror and raised her brows while smiling at her through the mirror, ” By the way, Feng Ju is coming to the lotus pavilion quite often these days. Why do you think so?”

Lu shi's cheeks turned crimson upon hearing her question and her suggestive tone made her blush. ” Wh...Really? Did he? Maybe he is coming because His Majesty asked him to find out about your condition?”

Zhao Ming chuckled hearing her response.

” You really think so? I don't think so. I think he has his eyes fixated on someone else.”

” Do you think he likes Nini? I think he likes her. She does have a baby-like face and a cute personality.” she said using another maid as bait.

Lu shi's expressions darkened hearing her words. She frowned and looked at the floor while playing with her fingers nervously, ” Really? Does he come here for Nini? But she does have a cute smile…” she pouted while Zhao Ming observed her reaction.

' She is done for. Feng Ju...that..sly creature. She took my most loyal person from me.' she chuckled and shook her head in helplessness.

In the palace chamber, Ji Cheng was sitting on the bed, with his back resting against the bed headrest, and looked at Wen Ru who was staring at him worriedly.

” Your Majesty, your condition seems really bad. Why did you drink so much yesterday?”

” I took you out to have fun and play with pretty ladies but you kept drinking, preventing any pretty woman to come inside. Why are you acting like this?” He asked in frustration.

They went out last night but rather than enjoying the night with women, he kept on drinking while playing with two cups calling them, Zhao Ming and Xie Ming. He kept mixing the cups and was choosing the cups over and over.

Even he felt dizzy seeing his actions. He knows that he fought with Zhao Ming, but his condition looked more serious than he thought.
