Chapter 636 - It's My Final Decision.
Zhao Ming didn't want to meet Wen Xu because she knew that she won't call her to her chamber just to have tea with her. She is clearly aware how annoyed she would be that she didn't appointed Xiao Li as the Head Consort yet.
She is not stupid to go there and that too alone. Last time when she had gone, it was quite a scene.
…
The next day, she had a meeting with Jia shi to discuss the contents of the upcoming monthly harem meeting.
After the meeting when she was coming back to the main palace, she stopped in her steps when someone called her.
" Zhao Ming!"
She furrowed her brows wondering who called her by her name and not Her Majesty or using courtesy.
Other than Ji Cheng or Wen Xu, no one is capable enough to call her with her name.
She pursed her lips in a thin line and turned around with a frown on her face. She raised her brows when she saw Xiao Li's father standing in the main garden.
'Hah, in front of Ji Cheng this man would not stop calling her Her Majesty and now Zhao Ming?'
Lu shi got nervous seeing Xiao Ruogang looking at Zhao Ming with a dangerous gaze. Even she felt a little intimidated by his gaze.
She was so nervous that she grabbed Zhao Ming's arm and shook her head signalling her to not talk with him. She was worried that he might bully her Miss when they were alone.
Zhao Ming smiled and patted her hand and turned to face Xiao Ruogang with her hands folded around her chest lazily. Xiao Ruogang walked to her with his long strided and stared at her with his gloomy expressions.
She stood in front of him and didn't greet him and just stared at him without saying anything. Similarly he?didn't greet her either and just stared at her with his dark expressions.
She would have greeted him first if he hadn't called her rudely like this. His expressions nor his tone was polite.
Xiao Ruogang frowned, seeing her being silent in front of him. She didn't even greet him.

He took a deep breath and said, "Seems like her Majesty doesn't like the fact that I came to the palace." He commented while raising his brows.
Zhao Ming's lips curled up as she said, " King Xiao Ruogang really knows how to read others minds. You're right. I indeed don't like you."
Xiao Ruogang gritted his teeth seeing how crude this girl has become.
" Zhao Ming, how dare you talk to me like this? Do you even remember what I can do if you continue to act like this?" He asked while looking at her with a mocking smile.
Zhao Ming couldn't help but chuckle. He still thinks that his threats will work on her now.
" I don't know about what you can do, but I do know what I can do. I think you're forgetting that I am the Empress of the Ji Dynasty, even if you're the king of L country or Xiao Li's father, you have no right to call me with my name." She said in an indifferent tone.
" I hope you don't forget the formalities and mind your attitude while talking with me. Even if you don't like me, I hope you can maintain the basic etiquette. And if not, then please don't blame me later for telling about your actions to Ji Cheng." Zhao Ming said with a straight face.
She wasn't in the mood to deal with his bullshit. She has much important work to do than dealing with him.
Xiao Ruogang's jaw tightened hearing her words. He couldn't believe that the girl who was easy to manipulate could speak like this.
" You….Zhao Ming, I am warning you. Don't be so willful. If you appoint Xiao Li as the Head Consort again, I won't do anything. But if you don't, then..then.. don't stop me later from taking bold actions." He said threateningly.
Zhao Ming snorted and said, " What can you do? You want to wage a war with the Ji Dynasty? King Xiao Ruogang, I think you're forgetting how authoritative you used to act?when you entered in alliance with the Ji Dynasty. At that time, your position was above us, that's why you were able to pressurized me before."
" But do you think you can still give me these empty threats? Do you dare to wage a war against the Ji Dynasty? If you can handle the consequences then go ahead." She shrugged her shoulders casually.
She knew that he was just bluffing and was trying to change her decision. But what he doesn't know is that she not only manages the harem or looks at the account books of Wen Ru, but she has knowledge about the state affairs as well.
At this moment, the position Ji Dynasty is at top among the other neighbouring states and no other state can afford to wage a war on them. If they did, the consequences will be dangerous and will only harm them rather than benefiting them.
Xu Rougang gritted his teeth hearing Zhao Ming's provocative words. His fists tightened?attitude seeing her provoking.
" Zhao Ming..You…"
" If there is nothing else to talk about, then please excuse me." She gave him a systematic nod and turned around to leave before he could complete his words.
Xiao Ruogang gritted his teeth seeing her behavior. How can someone change to this extent?
" Ah, I forgot to say one thing." she paused in her actions and turned again.
" If you think I will make Xiao Li, head consort again, then please throw this thought out of your head. Your daughter is really lazy when it comes to work and does not have any sense of doing work systematically. So, my final decision to her reappointment is no. You can tell her personally if you want." she smiled and turned around to leave with Lu shi.
"-_-"
Xiao Ruogang was speechless hearing her words. She is really shameless and bold.
